Abandoned Women: The First Secret Service Concubine

Chapter 263 Thank you
There was something in these words, Aunt Xiong's face became a little gloomy when she heard this, she stretched out her hand to push Feng Yao away, and sat down on the guest chair by herself.When he was seated, he opened his mouth and said: "This is the Feng family." Looking at Feng Yao again, he pointed at the big-bellied old man who was talking and smiling, and said: "This is the old man Zhou of Yue Rong Ji."

Then he pointed to a tall gentleman with a thin figure and a harsh face, and introduced: "This is Master Pan from Qingshui Pavilion." Then he moved his finger, pointing to the side of Master Pan, who was playing with two hickory nuts from time to time with his left hand , introduced: "This is Master Qian from Qiutang Garden."

There were two other people on the table, Aunt Xiong pointed to Feng Yao to recognize them, and finally said: "In the past, Master Qian, Master Pan, and Master Zhou were the leaders, and this year is no exception. Feng, you are new here. , and you are a woman, you don't understand anything else, just obey Master Qian and the others in everything."

Feng Yao smiled faintly, and said: "In the imperial decree given to me, the emperor only ordered me to participate, but he didn't tell me who to obey. I thought that I sat with the three masters and discussed together."

When Aunt Xiong heard the words, a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes: "You are a newcomer, what do you know? Don't pinch, be strong, and do things in an orderly manner!"

Feng Yao's eyes turned cold, and she only told her to do things in an orderly manner, why is Aunt Xiong not in a state of mind to do things in an orderly manner?It's ridiculous!

"Does Aunt Xiong despise me as a woman, or do you think I'm too young?" Feng Yao was never someone who would be bullied, but she didn't bother to care about trivial matters.Like this time, but he pressed her head hard and told her to bow down, which broke Feng Yao's rules.

"If Aunt Xiong looks down on women, she even looks down on herself. I think Aunt Xiong is not such a person. As for me being too young, it is true, but who told me that I am talented and talented? I was appreciated by the emperor at a young age. , and it's not my fault, is it?"

These words can be said to be pulled and punched, both soft and hard, and Aunt Xiong's eyes widened, she opened her mouth, and said: "You, good, good!"

"Thank you, aunt, for the compliment." Feng Yao was not modest, but accepted it with a smile, "My aunt even praised me twice, but allowed me to sit with the three masters and discuss matters together?"

Aunt Xiong probably has never seen someone who can climb a pole like this, and she was depressed and angry for a while, but she couldn't say a word.She glanced at Mr. Qian and the others, then stood up while supporting the table, and said with a sneer, "I brought you the man, you can watch and discuss other detailed matters!"

Feng Yao looked at Aunt Xiong's back, and said caringly: "Auntie, go slowly, don't fall again."

Aunt Xiong's back froze for a moment before she opened the curtain and walked out.

When Aunt Xiong's figure disappeared outside the curtain, Feng Yao turned around and bowed to Master Qian and the others: "I have seen a few seniors. From now on, I hope you will support me."

"It's easy to say." Master Qian and the others said one after another.There was a trace of surprise in all the eyes looking at Feng Yao.

These few are the top businessmen in the Dajing Dynasty, and they are very well-informed.They also heard about Feng Yao's fame at the Osmanthus Festival.It's just that because it involves the palace and the court, the knowledge is limited.However, some trivial facts are known.

For example, Murong Xi'er, the emperor's favorite princess, used to protect her.For example, Prince Yu, who has been disabled for many years, also protected her, and even stood up from the wheelchair in a hurry.

Who is Murong Xi'er?The ladies of civil and military affairs in the Manchu Dynasty did not get anything good. How could this Feng family get her protection?Although Murong Yu is not very good, he is still a prince, and he is the only prince in this dynasty. In the eyes of Master Qian and others, his protection is quite important.

So, Feng Yao's arrogance in front of Aunt Xiong is because she has a backer?
Originally, Master Qian and the others talked to Aunt Xiong and asked Aunt Xiong to give Feng Yao a bad blow.After all, Aunt Xiong has been the aunt in charge of the Imperial Clothing Bureau for five or six years, and Master Qian and others have been in charge of dressing up the four kingdoms' costumes for some years.Give the newcomer a little bit of a show, and Aunt Xiong quickly agreed to this trivial matter.

However, Master Qian and the others were somewhat surprised to see Fengyao so confident that she dared to confront Aunt Xiong as soon as she came.This Feng family is not simple.She dared to confront Aunt Xiong, which showed that she had the guts.She beat Aunt Xiong by a bar, which shows that she has a conspiracy.For a while, everyone was a little excited.I haven't encountered such an interesting prey for several years, so I must not eat it easily.

"Mr. Feng, you only said that you are equal to us, but you don't know what you are capable of?" At this time, Master Pan of Qingshui Pavilion said.His face was harsh, and he spoke mercilessly: "It is not acceptable to say that the imperial decree is the testimony of your ability."

Feng Yao asked back: "What kind of ability does Master Pan want?"

Master Pan is rigorous by nature, and he dislikes girls who escape, and he is even more displeased when he hears this.However, as soon as he opened his mouth, before he could speak, he was cut off by Master Zhou: "Haha, Madam Feng, don't be nervous. That's the way it is. Since the Holy Majesty has issued an order, it is affirmation of you. If we doubt you, Don't you doubt the Holy Spirit?"

As he spoke, he kicked Master Pan under the table, and then said with a smile: "However, newcomers have to take a test when they enter the door. It is a process. I will give Madam Feng a question. It is very simple. Madam Feng, listen carefully."

What he said was simple, but Feng Yao didn't dare to take it lightly, she just said indifferently: "Master Zhou, please tell me."

Master Zhou said, "How many types of silk and satin are there in total? What kind of clothes are suitable for each type of fabric?"

Feng Yao was slightly taken aback, this question is really too simple.Could it be that Master Zhou intends to release water for her?

In this daze, Master Pan caught him and said coldly, "Madam Feng can't answer such a simple question, can she?"

"Weaving technology has developed to this dynasty. There are a total of these types of silk and satin: silk, silk, satin, yarn, silk, silk, spinning, silk, crepe, Ge, brocade, and embroidery. Among them, silk yarn is light and thin, and silk Thick silk is thicker for coats and trousers, and medium thick for shirts and skirts. Ayako can be used as outerwear for all seasons, and silk is suitable for light summer clothes. Satin is the most colorful, suitable for quilt covers, padded jackets, etc..." Feng Yao Answer slowly.

As a trend follower, how can you not understand these?In her previous life, Fengyao always liked to read trendy magazines in her spare time, and she had a thorough research on clothing. She even went to the countryside to see farmers raising silkworms and textile factories picking cotton.

Now that she's in another world and she's doing this job again, how could Feng Yao not study carefully?She answered this question perfectly.He kept talking for two quarters of an hour without stopping, and gradually talked about areas that Mr. Qian and others were not familiar with, which made the few elders who had been watching the show gradually reveal expressions of consternation, and slowly turned to Contemplating, unknowingly showing a respectful look of listening attentively.

On the other side, the little eunuch who declared the decree came out from the Imperial Clothes Bureau, and heaved a sigh.I secretly said in my heart, Feng Shi, Feng Shi, our family can only help you here, you can ask for more blessings.Then he got into the carriage and returned to the palace to return to his life.

The emperor was free at the moment, when he heard the little eunuch came back, he actually asked him, "Is the journey going smoothly?"

"Going back to the emperor, it's going well, everything is going well!" The little eunuch didn't expect that there would be a chance to speak with the emperor face to face alone in this life, and he said with some panic.

"The Feng family has already entered the Imperial Clothing Bureau?" the emperor asked again in a flat tone.

"Go back to the emperor, yes." The little eunuch didn't understand why the emperor asked such a simple question.However, since the emperor asked, he could only answer cautiously.

Then, the emperor asked a few more questions, such as when the Feng family received the decree, did they show joy?For example, what about the place where Mrs. Feng lives?For example, did the Feng family come to Beijing alone, or did they bring someone with them?For example, what was Prince Yu's expression when he received the order?

Originally the little eunuch was still wondering, why did the emperor ask such simple questions?Later, cold sweat gradually broke out on his back.He just lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word, so he answered them one by one.

"Oh? Is Prince Yu not here?" The emperor unconsciously tapped his fingers on the table, as if asking the little eunuch, but also asking himself.After a while, he waved his hand and told the little eunuch to go down.

The little eunuch broke out in a cold sweat, secretly regretting that he shouldn't have gotten so close to Feng Yao on the way.Seeing what the emperor meant, he actually disliked her very much.

But if you don't like it, why did you announce the decree to call her into the Imperial Clothes Bureau, and Baba asked him to question her?The more the little eunuch thought about it, the more he felt that the king's mind was unpredictable, and gradually he had some vague thoughts. He only hoped that he would not show up, otherwise he would face the emperor every day, and his life span would be shortened by fear.

The emperor leaned on the backrest and closed his eyes.

Seeing his frown, the eunuch quickly came up to give him a pinch, and said, "Your majesty, why don't you bring Miss Peony in? The old slave looks at his old hands every day, and feels ashamed that he doesn't have a pair of delicate and soft hands to serve him." emperor."

The emperor slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were like needles: "Yesterday, the prince just said that he wanted to take Mudan into the palace and make him a concubine. Today you persuade me to take Mudan to serve me, what are you so worried about?"

The eldest lady listened, sweat rolled on her forehead, but her words were heartbreaking, she quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "The emperor forgives the crime, the emperor forgives the crime!" Yesterday afternoon, he was not feeling well, so he took a half-day leave.How did you know that something like this happened?
But he was so angry that no one told him, which made him touch the emperor's brow.Who is so black-hearted and wants his life?The eunuch hated secretly, but was even more terrified in his heart. He only hoped that the emperor would remember his old love and save his life.

After waiting for a long time, the emperor said lightly: "Get up. You don't know about this, and I don't blame you."

When the crown prince came to ask for this matter yesterday afternoon, he had originally screened out the servants in the palace, so it is normal that it did not spread.

The chief eunuch shook his head again tremblingly: "The old servant thanked the emperor for his kindness."

Just then he stood up, and heard the emperor say again: "I haven't seen Peony for a few days. Let's go out of the palace with me."

When the eunuch heard this, his calves couldn't help trembling again, deep fear welling up in his heart.Your Majesty, what on earth does this mean?Did he fall in love with Miss Peony, or did he want to hone the crown prince?
Prime Minister Su's Mansion.

"Today, the emperor issued a decree to order the Feng family to enter the Imperial Clothes Bureau." In Prime Minister Su's study, Prime Minister Su sat behind the desk, looked at the bookshelf, and took a book from time to time and stuffed it back. He didn't know what he was looking for. Su Anjin said.

Su Anjin pulled out a book, opened it, looked through it a few times, and then stuffed it back.It took a long time to find two books, but they were not serious books, but the records of the Imperial Clothing Bureau in previous years.
