queen of heaven

Chapter 96

She is the daughter of Prime Minister Xi. Xi Ziqin's mother is of course Prime Minister Xi's first wife. She was born in Mo City, where the city is full of ink fragrance. She has learned the skill of making ink since she was a child.

Under the influence of grandma, not only was their concubine mother good at making ink, he and Bei Mingyue also knew a little bit about it, not to mention that after concubine mother passed away, Bei Mingyue learned this fine skill from concubine mother. It's so complete, it's not a problem to forge a sandalwood purple gold ink that resembles the token of love between the father and mother back then!

So Bei Mingyue wants to...

"Please make amends, the emperor. The daughter of the people is infected with the cold and it is inconvenient to see others. Please don't be a refugee daughter."

Bei Mingyue didn't like Emperor Jing's tricks. Emperor Jing was stunned, and the expression on his face became extremely ugly. He waved his dragon robe angrily, and said displeasedly, "Oh? Could it be that I said something, but there are still people How dare you not listen!"

These words are strong and unintentional, they are clearly using Long Wei to force Bei Mingyue to take off her straw hat!

"Don't your majesty think that sandalwood and purple gold ink look very familiar?"

Xicheng Jue's face also became displeased. Just as he was about to speak, Bei Mingyue suddenly spoke up, with a mocking smile hidden in his cold voice.

"Nowadays, most of the sandalwood and purple gold ink ingots sent by the Sizhifang in the palace are made of sandalwood calcined in the fire to form ink blocks, and then polished into round ink ingots. On the ink ingots, intricate patterns are carved and painted with purple gold. powder, that means that all the steps have been completed, but has your majesty heard that there is another way to make this purple gold sandalwood ink?"

Emperor Jing's feet softened, and his eyes staring at Bei Mingyue became more and more complicated, and he even took two steps back!
Bei Mingyue didn't seem to notice Emperor Jing's outrageous reaction, her whole body seemed to be lost in memories, her voice was soft, as if she was afraid of disturbing someone's soul.

"Immerse the fine sandalwood in the snow water collected from the extreme north of Beiming country, add snow lotus petals to soak for seven days and seven nights, then use jasper bamboo as firewood, bury the sandalwood in it and bake it to make ink, after it is completely cooled Put it back into snow water and soak it for seven days and nights, and the ink stick has a coldness that other inks don't have."

Xicheng Jue withdrew his gaze, turned his head to look at Emperor Jing, and saw that his eyes were so dazed that he could hardly find the focus, his complexion gradually turned ashen and desperate, his fingers tightly grasped the square of sandalwood and purple gold ink, and traces of purple and black were printed and dyed. On his callused fingers.

"The ink block that has been soaked in snow water for two times and has just taken shape is finely ground with a grindstone made of snowstone to look like an ink ingot, and sharp ice cubes are used to carve patterns on the ink ingot so that it will not look like other ink sticks. The patterns of the ink sticks are as rigid..."

Emperor Jing stood there blankly, as if a small ice room appeared in front of his eyes, the delicate and gentle woman raised her hand to wipe off her sweat, put the carved ink ingot in her bosom, and took out the Materials, pulling him towards the calciner with a soft voice.

"After engraving the ink ingot, take the jasper jade bamboo cut into sections, lay the base with snow lotus petals soaked in snow water, fill in the ink ingot with carved patterns, and finally fill it with snow lotus petals, pour it into the Snow water, sealed with a bamboo plug, baked for twelve hours..."

The ethereal and illusory voice lingered in his ears, Emperor Jing's whole body was agitated, and his mind instantly woke up. The ethereal voice gradually separated from the masked woman's voice, and became the masked woman's cold voice again.
