Rank One Princess Douxian Wang: Phoenix Palace Brocade

Chapter 201 The Deep Meaning of Rewards

Zhao Yu's tone remained the same, as if he hadn't heard their words: "The top three of the Xuangong Gate gambling game will meet, and the marriage between King Xiang and Marquis Chengye will be discussed later."

Queen Wu's next words choked in her throat before she could utter them. Fortunately, she also thought of the current situation.The appearance of Xu Jiatong appeared in front of her eyes, she looked back carefully again, and felt relieved.

"Look at me, I forget when I talk about my daughter-in-law. The gamblers in the palace gate are engaged in farming and weaving. Their marriage will naturally be discussed later. If it is said that these three girls are really different, Zi Ran and Your Majesty has seen Ah Rou many times, this Xu Jiatong was brought back by her father not long ago, Your Majesty must see her."

While talking, Yulan had already gone to invite someone, Xu Jiatong was a little timid after all, and looked back at Ma Qinge every step of the way, in exchange for Ma Qinge kept waving at her.Seeing her, Wang Rou first smiled at her and said, "Sister Jiatong, don't be afraid, the king and the empress are kind to others, and calling us over at this time is definitely to add a reward to the gambling game during the day."

Lu Ziran smiled shyly: "It would be good if I was scared at this time, just now Chengyehou said those words, I was so ashamed, I wish I could sneak in through a crack in the ground."

The three of them are still daughters, and they all blush when they mention this.After going up the jade steps, the three of them greeted Zhao Yu, Queen Wu and several concubines, and it was inevitable that everyone would say a few birthday wishes to Queen Wu.

"The fathers of the three of you are all important ministers in the court, and you deserve the title this time. You are an example for the women of our Datong country. I am very relieved. In the future, you may continue to focus on weaving and embroidery, Or husband and son, you must continue to be such a role model, and don't let down the expectations of this palace." Queen Wu taught earnestly.

"Your servant understands, and she will live up to your mother's expectations." The three of them bowed in unison.

Queen Wu smiled and looked at Zhao Yu, waiting for him to speak, and followed his gaze to look at the three of them.Zhao Yu looked at the three of them one by one, but didn't pay attention to any one in particular. Queen Wu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and became more courageous.

"Oh? What did the three of them embroider?" Zhao Yu asked after hearing "well deserved".

Queen Wu said: "Zi Ran and A Rou embroidered a screen together. The concubine asked them afterward. They had never practiced together before. This was the first time they embroidered together, but they cooperated skillfully. They each showed their strengths. They complement each other perfectly. Jiatong's child is a student of the Duan family in Jinxiufang, and she is the first in the three bureaus. The outer dress she made for the concubine has a criss-crossed field, and the flowers are blooming. It is the scene of a mulberry field. And what she brought That embroidery, there is a painting within a painting. Her clan sister said that this is the scenery of her hometown Kunshan. The concubine has been to Kunshan, and the simplicity and elegance in her embroidery are just like what the concubine saw back then, which is even more rare It is lifelike, and the scene seems to be alive."

"Actually, Sister Jiatong is the well-deserved first name. The minister's daughter and Sister Arou are just favored by the empress, and they are not ugly." Lu Ziran said with a smile.

What Lu Ziran said was sincere, she and Wang Rou did not win the first two rounds, and this last round was no match for Xu Jiatong in terms of skill and artistic conception.The reason why they were able to tie for the first place has a lot to do with them being about to become Mrs. Hou and Princess.

They are clear about this, and others are also clear, if they try to be strong and fight for victory, it will be a joke instead, it is better to be modest, and it will make a good talk.What's more, Lu Ziran is an open-minded and cautious person, and he is completely convinced by Xu Jiatong.

"This child is humble and courteous." Queen Wu looked at Zhao Yu. This daughter-in-law was appointed by Zhao Yu, and she was also very satisfied.

Zhao Yu nodded in satisfaction, and turned to Wang Ju: "I remember asking about it before. At that time, Ah Rou's embroidery skills were not as good as they are now. It can be seen that she has practiced hard all these years, and she is diligent. King Xiang is young and energetic, and how many times?" There is impetuousness, you are delicate, gentle and courteous, as the saying goes, softness can overcome rigidity, and I will entrust this son of mine to you from now on."

"Yo, the king can also praise people. The concubine has not heard so many praises from the king all at once. It can be seen that this princess is the right choice." Concubine Cheng Shu joked with a smile.

Queen Wu looked at Concubine Cheng Shu for a rare pleasing moment, and agreed: "Your Majesty, Ah Rou was chosen by my concubine, how do you see my concubine's vision?"

"There's nothing wrong with Wang Qing's daughter." Zhao Yu nodded in satisfaction. At this moment, he looked at Xu Jiatong, looked at it, and frowned, "Why are you so thin?"

Xu Jiatong's attire can tell that he is old-fashioned, but he is too thin and his appearance has not yet grown.In fact, Xu Jiatong himself felt that after deliberate recuperation these days, he was much better than before, and his cheeks were also a little fleshy.But when Zhao Yu said this, she immediately felt a bit like a starving person who escaped from a famine somewhere.

For a moment, Xu Jiatong didn't know how to answer, could it be that Xu Xiaozu let her go and let her be abused by a aunt and aunt?She doesn't have the habit of revealing her family's ugliness.

"The courtier has been thin and weak since she was a child, and the family has tried many methods, but they have not been able to improve. But in the past two years, she has been taking a doctor's medicinal diet for recuperation, and she is getting better and better." Xu Jiatong wanted to round up the words.

Fortunately, Zhao Yu didn't ask, but asked again: "Your father has been in Xidu for many years, but he left you to be a filial piety in your hometown. It's also thanks to him...Queen, what did you reward her for?"

"They are all routine rewards from the Palace Gate Gambling Game, and the extra rewards are just going to be heard from the King," Queen Wu said.

"Will she enter the Shang Palace Bureau?" Zhao Yu asked bluntly.

Queen Wu replied: "She is also a noble daughter from the Hou family. Although the Shang Palace Bureau is in the palace, it is a place to suffer after all. She just came back from her hometown, and she just returned to her father's side. Wouldn't it be too unkind to separate their father and daughter so quickly. What the concubine meant was that she should not be allowed to be the female official. She chooses a good husband and makes a good conversation."

Zhao Yu's eyes narrowed, and he didn't let go: "The imperial examination is impermanent, and someone who knows how to make a fuss may not be able to be a good husband. If there is a suitable one, let's talk about it. The queen might as well reward her with something else. The one that can be grasped right now is the best."

Queen Wu smiled, with some unwillingness in her eyes, but she did not refute: "What the king said is that the concubine will let the child choose something by himself. Jiatong, what do you want? The king is here today, you Don't be reserved."

Envious eyes from left and right fell on her, but Xu Jiatong felt a burst of disappointment in her heart, she didn't care about suffering in the Shang Palace Bureau, let alone the hypocritical family happiness with Xu Xiaozu.She just wants to be a female official, enter the clothing bureau, and make her weaving and embroidery skills that she has practiced hard for many years useful, and then realize Cao's wish.

But Queen Wu had already said that she would not be allowed to join the Shang Palace, and Zhao Yu had already acquiesced, so it was not easy for her to object in person.

If she can't enter the palace, if Ding'anhou's mansion can't stay in the end, what should she do?Xu Jiatong figured that apart from himself, nothing in this world is completely reliable, so he needed something that he could get close to.

"I want some mulberry fields and an embroidery village. My daughter's only joy in this life is weaving embroidery. I also hope that the king and empress can make it happen so that my minister can be with Zhixiu forever." Xu Jiatong thought that this might as well be One way out, even if she can't enter the palace, with her skills, she can break out of the world.

"Then the palace will give you a hundred acres of top-class mulberry fields, and the embroidery village will find skilled craftsmen to build it according to your ideas." Queen Wu agreed, this... It can be regarded as a kind of compensation, but it is not enough.

"I am giving you ten BMWs and a horse farm in the western suburbs, and I will give you a badge to enter the palace. In the future, you can often enter the palace to discuss weaving and embroidery with Qishang Palace." Zhao Yu gave her a strange look, and said to her Xu Jiatong is still not satisfied with wanting to embroider Zhuang.

The horses raised in the horse farm in the western suburbs were either war horses or descendants of war horses. At this time, everyone was very surprised to hear that Zhao Yu gave them to such a weak girl like Xu Jiatong.

Xu Jiatong didn't know the inside story, and said that those horses could be ridden for playing polo, and he was very happy: "Thank you, my lord, for your generous reward. I will never forget my original intention and make a further step in weaving and embroidery."

Queen Wu was naturally very happy, and after the banquet started, she called her to her side and said something, mostly asking her what she likes to eat and where she wants to go, and comforted her about her failure to enter the palace .

Xu Jiatong gradually figured it out, probably because of her background, she was afraid that it would be difficult to control her if she entered the Shang Palace, and these rewards and greetings were her compensation.Unexpectedly, she did not enjoy the benefits of her background in the first 15 years, but she would be dragged down by her background again later.

But this matter is not over yet, since she got the badge to enter the palace, she will have another chance in the future, she will never give up!
When Xu Jiatong returned to his seat, he bowed to Zhao Yu and bid farewell according to the ceremony.Zhao Yu has been by the side all the time, and after listening to her short phone call with Queen Wu's parents, she seems a little dissatisfied: "Although she is a girl, she should not only be limited to weaving and embroidery, but also have a broader vision."

"My daughter would like to follow the king's instructions." Xu Jiatong was very surprised, why Zhao Yu said this to her alone.

"This string of Buddhist beads rewards you." Zhao Yu said suddenly when she had already stepped back, and he handed the Buddhist beads to the eunuch beside him, and he didn't look at Xu Jiatong again.

Queen Wu looked at Xu Jiatong with a dazed face, and took the opportunity of changing clothes to call Feng Tai to give some instructions, her eyes fell on Xu Jiatong who had already returned to her seat, full of sighs.

"Did the king reward you with that horse farm? Did you really reward it? I heard it right. I begged for it many times but didn't give it to me. I'm partial, too partial." Ma Qinge gritted her teeth. Beating his legs, he lost the slightest bit of ladylike demeanor.

"My elder sister Qinge, do you want any good horses? You just want hard-earned horses from the Western Regions. I believe Mr. Ma can get them for you." Xu Jiatong didn't know the origin of those horses at all, and complained to Ma Qinge scoffed.

"You don't know?" Ma Qinge rolled his big eyes, thinking of a plan, "Why don't I exchange ten BMWs for your ten? If that doesn't work, exchange twenty BMWs, or twenty BMWs for five." match?"
