Chapter 78 Sending clothes in the middle of the night
Shen Zhuoxi's guess made Hui Zhi a little suspicious: "I think it's unlikely. This year's mid-year banquet is particularly grand. The prince is responsible for hosting it. The relationship between the eldest lady and the prince is not very good."
"Even if they are eldest ladies, they don't dare to take advantage of the mid-year banquet to fool around!"
Shen Zhuoxi smiled lightly, raised his eyes to look at the moonlight, and said, "Think about it in another direction. On such an important festival, not only will I be embarrassed in front of the most prestigious people in Dongchen State."
"I also ruined the banquet carefully prepared by the prince. What do you think will happen to me?"
Huizhi imagined it for a moment and couldn't help but shudder - if such a situation really happened, let alone anything else, the favor from the Queen Mother would definitely be gone, let alone the Grand Master's Palace.
Can't let this happen!
Huizhi shook his head and said quickly: "You have expected it, how should you deal with it?"
"There is no need to deal with it. There are just a few ways they can crush me in terms of talent. Furthermore, they use Wu Yong to destroy my reputation." Shen Zhuoxi had already thought of a countermeasure and said.
"No matter who comes forward this time, they will suffer the same consequences. It depends on which one of them is so short-sighted."
Seeing her confident look, Huizhi pursed her lips and said softly: "Do you want to tell His Highness King Yu? The affairs of the prince and the eldest lady at the mid-year banquet will be announced."
"No matter how powerful you are, you are only the second young lady of the Taishi Mansion and cannot compete with the Crown Princess."
"It's okay." Shen Zhuoxi walked into the courtyard and said, "Before it was announced, she had the same status as me, and she was not as noble as me. After all, I have a princess' aunt."
Hui Zhi couldn't say anything else.
That night, Yu Mu climbed over the wall again late at night and just knocked on the window.
After Taozi's death, Zhuzi was at peace, no one was watching, and the person serving in the evening was Hui Zhi. Yu Mu came in easily, with a baggage in his hand.
Shen Zhuoxi was about to fall asleep when she saw him and narrowed her eyes slightly: "Why are you here again?"
"You 'you', do you dislike me for coming too often?" Yu Mu said this, and he sat down on the chair and said without any courtesy: "Are you going to bed so early today?"
"You have to get up early for the New Year's Eve banquet tomorrow." Shen Zhuoxi sat down opposite him and said, "Seriously, what's the matter?"
"It's for you." Yu Mu pushed the baggage he brought in front of Shen Zhuoxi and said, "Open it and see if you like it?"
"What is it?" Shen Zhuoxi glanced at Yu Mu, who was wearing a mask and could not see his expression.
She opened the bag, and what came into view was a haze-colored long dress, in a fine brocade style, simple and elegant, with low-key hibiscus flowers embroidered on the hem.
Judging from the fine materials, this set of clothes cost at least a hundred taels of silver.
Under the clothes, there is also a medium-sized brocade box, which contains a set of pale purple glazed jade facial hair and small and exquisite earrings, decorated with a drop of jade like a drop of water.
The necklace is made up of strings of beads, and the earrings match each other. In addition to the hairpins, which are jade carved in the shape of hibiscus flowers, there are also two pairs of jade hairpins and a pair of exquisite and clear jade bracelets.
Judging from the pure floating color and the delicate and excessive water quality, the entire set of jewelry comes from the same jade stone.
Glazed jade is extremely rare, and it is a distinctive lavender color. I am afraid that there are not even a few pieces found in the entire Dongchen Kingdom.
Especially the jade that can be used for so many jewelry must be very big and rare. It is conceivable that if this set of jewelry is real, it must be priceless!
Shen Zhuoxi frowned, picked up the whole transparent hosta and looked at it carefully, and asked suspiciously: "Is this true or false?"
"Fake." Yu Mu poured a cup of tea and said, "I know you are going to the Mid-year Banquet tomorrow, so I brought this to you to support your appearance."
"Where did you get so much silver?" Shen Zhuoxi put the hairpin back into the box, shook off his clothes, and said, "I gave you the five hundred taels of silver to support your men. What are you buying me clothes for?" "
"The clothes were not bought with the money you gave me." Yu Mu quickly put down the tea cup and explained: "It was the money I saved before. I bought this dress when I saw it matched you well."
"Where is this set of jade stones?" There was no smile on Shen Zhuoxi's face: "Even if it is fake, it will cost a lot of money to be able to make it look like the real thing."
"It's not worth anything. It was given to me as an apology for helping someone else," Yu Mu said with a cynical look as he shrugged.
"I don't have a woman around me, and I can't use it if I keep it for myself. It just matches this haze-colored dress, so I found it for you."
Shen Zhuoxi's brows furrowed even more: "Take it back. You won't receive any reward for your merits. Keep it for your future wife. Return the clothes. I have them here."
"There's no reason to take it back after giving it away. You have to support me and my people, so you can't be embarrassed tomorrow." Yu Mu raised his eyes and looked at her and said, "You will definitely look good in this outfit."
As Shen Zhuoxi held the clothes, she felt strange, as if her hands were hot.
Why has the relationship between her and Yu Mu changed a little? !
If there was anything else to say, Yu Mu had already stood up and left. Before leaving, he did not forget to say a few words: "The tea in your room tastes terrible."
Shen Zhuoxi: "..."
Huizhi came in from outside the house after seeing someone leave. She saw Shen Zhuoxi holding clothes and staring at the window in a daze, and said, "Miss, did the master give you clothes?"
"Yes." Shen Zhuoxi finally came to his senses, put down his clothes and said, "I don't know what Yu Mu is doing. I don't have much money to lick blood from my knife edge, so why should I get any clothes?"
Huizhi knew that Yu Mu's true identity was King Yu Jing Muling. She paused and said, "Maybe the young master wants to repay you. Don't think too much about it. The young master still had some money in his hands before."
"These clothes are indeed beautiful. You have fair skin, so the clothes must be suitable. How about wearing this suit tomorrow?"
Shen Zhuoxi thought for a while and said, "Take out all the new clothes you got recently and have a look."
Huizhi entered the room for a while, took out a few sets of clothes and hung them on the shelf, and said: "The clothes given by the Prime Minister's Office are all made of fabrics, and there is no time to make clothes. The clothes sent by the old lady are for the fourth lady. The style is inappropriate.”
"Only the ones given by the Second Madam earlier are good. Do you want to choose one?"
The clothes Han Xiangru sent were okay, but compared with the Yun brocade sent by Jing Muling, they were much worse.
Moreover, Yun Jin's eyes are also much lower-key, hazy in color, not too standout, but also have her own style.
"Just wear what Yu Mu gave you." Shen Zhuoxi hesitated and said.
"What about the jewelry? The jewelry box is either made of gold or silver, and some are jade, but they are all jade. You look a bit old-fashioned." Huizhi glanced at the jade in the brocade box and suggested.
"How about this one? It matches your clothes. It's low-key yet elegant."
"Okay." Shen Zhuoxi didn't plan to make a splash at the Mid-year banquet, and said, "Just make your decision. Get some rest early. You can come with me to the Mid-year banquet tomorrow."
"Dragonfly Bamboo Leaf has only been with me for a short time, and the tacit understanding is not enough. Grandma Ju is already old, so you are the most suitable one."
Early the next morning, Aunt Ju woke up Shen Zhuoxi and dressed her up.
