When Concubine Wei's court lady went to inquire again, the eunuch of the Garment Bureau wanted to truthfully tell the emperor's will, so she had to neglect the needs of other empresses.But at that time, Fang Qi, the manager, came out in a hurry, and said: "The order is indeed arranged according to the position. It's not that the slaves are not dedicated, and they really can't do anything! But Princess Ruyi's clothes are small, and the slaves Let them stay up for two more nights, get out the princess's new clothes first, and then present a good leather to Empress Wei, what do you think?"

Before the maid came, Wei Wei had to give her permission.

If she is busy with Concubine Shu's clothes, she doesn't care.

It can be seen that the objects of the rage are also divided into different categories.

"I guess you know how to handle things! You are not allowed to cut corners. If you do poorly and grind your highness's skin, even if your empress can spare you, the emperor will not let you go lightly."

Manager Fang answered with sweat profusely.

After the court lady left, he turned around and reprimanded his subordinates: "Did you just mean that the Garment Bureau is rushing to make the tiger fur coat that the emperor gave Xi Changzai? If you say that, there will be troubles in the palace! People only talk about three points, and let her guess the remaining seven points, and ask the bankers to find out, just don't let the words leak out to us."

The eunuch is only half a man, and after dealing with women for a long time, he can somewhat understand their thoughts.

Concubine Shu has accumulated prestige in the harem for a long time, and her family and status dote on her.

With her taking the lead, most of the other young masters think they are unlucky and won't get to the bottom of it.

Even with this level of consideration, Manager Fang didn't talk too much. He only let the concubine Wei's maids guess, and paid for the leather materials out of her own pocket. If it is not enough, or if you want to spend more effort, you have to use extra silver taels.Manager Fang is not short of oil and water, but he doesn't want to cause trouble.

"It's still the godfather who knows a lot, and the son has been educated."

The little eunuch panicked.

Manager Fang snorted and said, "I don't care about other people. I only say a few more words because you are filial."

The little eunuch sighed and said many good things.

"None of you is allowed to talk nonsense about the tiger skin, and you have to think about whether there are life flowers after collecting the money."

Manager Fang sees things far away. If the emperor had followed his past temperament, he would reward whoever he wanted, and he would not hide it at all, let alone think about how much others would hate this rewarded concubine.This time, they let them keep a low profile. This kind of meticulous care is more valuable than a complete tiger skin.

He could see far, but he still wanted to make a mistake.

No matter how low-key the Ministry of Internal Affairs handles it, will Xichang still wear it to Jiang Concubine's birthday banquet?It's just that he found that Xi Changzai was a little conspicuous, so he definitely wanted to suppress it first and then show it off at the banquet, so naturally he couldn't let the news go before him.

This Hanyang hunting ground, because the prey obtained by the guards and eunuchs accompanying the emperor were all hunted by the emperor, so the amount of leather obtained was really quite a lot.

The best ones belonged to the Queen Mother.

The second is to distribute it uniformly for the empress, which is respect for the central palace and stable power, but the emperor gave an extra order-Concubine Shu wanted fox fur, so the white fox fur was left to her.Jiang concubine's birthday, also choose some good ones.

This is the emperor's instructions on the "horse killing incident"——

Concubine Shu is in a bad mood, thank you.

Concubine Jiang picked quarrels and caused trouble, but she seemed to belong to the queen mother, and she died of her beloved horse, so she gave him comfort.

The rest will be allocated by the Queen herself.

Due to the large amount of leather materials, the concubines wanted to make new clothes when they got the leather materials, which made the Ministry of Internal Affairs very busy.Concubine Wei had a daughter by her side, and even if she was not favored, she could often see the emperor. The House of Internal Affairs did not dare to neglect her, so only filial piety could be used as compensation.

It was someone else, and I called back as soon as I said I was too busy!

"On Concubine Jiang's birthday this time, only those who can wear new clothes will have face in the palace."

Concubine Li said, feeling a little annoyed: "The material that the Queen gave me is not as good as that given to Concubine Wei, isn't it just that she has a daughter? She doesn't even have a title!"

Yun Jiao listened to her chattering and complaining in the main hall.

After listening to Concubine Li scolding all the women in the sixth palace, she remembered: "What jewelry are you going to wear? Didn't you say that Concubine Jiang wanted to kill your horse? You are also a member of Xianfu Palace, but I can't lose the class," she called the maid over: "Take out my jewelry box, you can see how good it looks, I will borrow it for you to wear, don't go to the banquet naked."

The palace maid brought out a drawer full of jewels, which dazzled Yunjiao's eyes.

After trying it on, it really adds a lot of color.

"Then thank you, Sister Lipin."

Yun Jiao showed off to the bronze mirror.

In fact, the emperor also gave her some jewelry after attending bedtime.

But the jewelry has to be chosen by the little sisters.

"You're welcome, I have to pay it back, and it can't be damaged." Li Pin said in a tense tone.

Ever since Yun Jiao called her mother in Jianzhang Palace, Concubine Li couldn't look at her the way she used to.The words he spoke were still so mean, but he couldn't help but take care of her a little more.

Li Pin interprets this as Wang Xichang being too careless.

If you lose face on a big occasion, others will laugh at Xianfu Palace.

……

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of Concubine Jiang's birthday.

The Empress Dowager closed the door to pay respects to the Buddha, and she did not leave the Changle Palace easily, and this time there was no exception. She just sent a long list of congratulatory gifts, and one of them was a glass statue of Guanyin with many sons.

Concubine Wei continued to stink: "Tsk tsk, the emperor is not lucky to be with her, even with the blessing of Guanyin, it is useless. Even if the Bodhisattva appears, you have to shake your head when you see her belly."

Xu Guiren believes in Buddhism more piously, she dare not answer this.

She arrived earlier and looked around: "Where's Concubine Li? I haven't arrived since I'm here, be bold," she said to herself, "I knew I would have to go around a few more times, but now it looks like I'm going to wait for her." , not afraid of breaking her life."

"Mother Concubine, what is a birthday discount?"

Princess Ruyi opened her watery eyes and asked curiously.

"Oh, didn't I tell you to cover the princess's ears when I was talking?"

Concubine Wei scolded the maid who took care of the princess.

She knew that she was not well-bred, but she couldn't help it. She didn't dare to talk about it in person, but it was okay to gossip behind her back.

Concubine Shu and Concubine Jing both sent gifts, but no one arrived.

Concubine Wei had expected these two things, one was that she didn't need to be in front of Concubine Jiang, and the other was that her health was really bad.

To Concubine Wei's surprise, the queen actually came.

After paying her respects and asking for peace, she returned to her seat, and wondered to Xu Guiren: "Does Concubine Jiang have that much face?" Then she thought again: "Oh, it must be the Empress Dowager's face."

Today's banquet is really a fur exhibition.

Those who do not have new clothes have to change their old clothes and put them on as new clothes.

At first glance, it looks like an animal party.

At this moment, the eunuch called out:
"Concubine Li of Xianfu Palace is here, Xi Chang is here, Sun Chang is here—"
