Chapter 96 Double-sided Embroidery
The engravings on the surface of the box are very exquisite, and they are the flowers and colors of Magu's birthday.

But the most striking thing is not the engraved color, but the shape of the box.

The box is not big, but it is very long. It looks roughly as tall as a person.

Empress Fei didn't pay much attention to this birthday gift at first, but seeing this strange box now, she felt a little more curious.

The palace people at the side understood, hurriedly opened the brocade box and took it out, but it turned out to be a piece of silk cloth, no, to be precise, one was an embroidered picture.

In the Daqing Dynasty, embroidered pictures were also used to present gifts, but generally speaking, they were either given to the elders by the daughter's family, or the works of famous embroidered mothers were collected.

It's just that this is the Thousand Autumn Festival gift presented by the Jin Palace to the Queen's [-]th birthday... It's just an embroidered picture...

This inevitably makes people feel a little bit shabby.

Wanting to turn around quickly, he immediately went to see King Jin's reaction, but saw that King Jin's expression remained unchanged.As for Concubine Jin... At this time, the sky was getting dark in the main hall, and there was a big man like King Jin (...) blocking her, and she could only vaguely see some dresses and a vague figure, but her face and expression were not. It's not real.

The reason why Jin Wang is so calm is not pretending.

In fact, as early as some time ago, he went to Xiangtaiyuan and told the old lady about it.After all, Yan Jiaoran was not born as a young lady in the capital, so she knew very little about these court etiquettes and exquisiteness, but when she encountered such a big event as the queen's forty thousand years, she had to trouble the old lady for help.

At that time, what the King of Jin thought was that as long as Yan Jiaoran could enter the palace without showing timidity or making mistakes, it would be fine. The palace is no different from the outside, so one has to be cautious in words and deeds, and there are so many etiquette rules that make people feel complicated and headache. A little bit of taboo may kill someone.

As for the birthday gift or something, he and the old lady can prepare it.

But a few days ago, the old lady told someone to tell herself that the birthday gift was ready.King Jin thought that it might be prepared by the old lady, so he was very directional, so he didn't think about taking a look first.

From the looks of it today...could it be prepared by your princess?

After all, the old lady has been looking for a word of "stability" all her life. Let alone the content of the things she gave, the outer box must be quite satisfactory, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with it.

Such a long box doesn't look like the old lady's style.

It's just, but the old lady said that it was "ready", presumably the old lady had checked it beforehand, and the things would not be too bad.

Taking a ten thousand step back, even if it is just an embroidered picture, it will not cause any loss to him or to the Jin Palace.After all, there is absolutely no need for the Prince Jin Mansion to "make further progress".

Seeing that King Jin's expression remained unchanged, some people withdrew their gazes and looked at the palace again.

There are two palace daughters who unfold the embroidery picture at the same time.

Empress Fei was originally sitting on the phoenix seat. As the embroidered picture was opened, she couldn't help leaning slightly: "This is... come closer and let me have a look."

Even the queen said so, and the other people present stared at the embroidered picture without blinking.

In an instant, a bright red brocade unfolded slowly, and a huge golden-red phoenix spread its wings and stood on it.Especially those golden eyes that seemed to be staring at everyone.

In addition to this majestic phoenix, it is also surrounded by colorful and various birds, such as magpies, cuckoos, peacocks, mandarin ducks, swallows, etc., but they all surround the golden and red phoenix in a flocking posture In the very center.

At this time, I heard Seventh Princess speak: "Queen, what are you looking at? This embroidery picture is reversed, right?"

As soon as the seventh princess's words came out, everyone was stunned. Empress Fei hurriedly asked the maid to turn around again, only to find that there was also an embroidery picture on the back of the original embroidery picture!
It's just that this embroidered picture is not a picture of a hundred birds facing the phoenix, but another picture of a hundred flowers and peonies!

Empress Fei reached out to touch the embroidery pattern, and was surprised to find that it was not made by combining two embroidery patterns, but just one: "How is this done?"

Listening to the voice of the system elf saying, "The host has completed 50.00% of the work", Yan Jiaoran bowed his head and saluted: "Queen, this is double-sided embroidery."

Looking at Queen Fei's attitude, it seems that she managed to poke her fingers swollen in the system to become proficient. It is worth dedicating to this embroidery "for the first time".

The so-called "double-sided embroidery" refers to embroidering images on both sides on the same base material in the same embroidery process.

According to the system elves, this "double-sided embroidery" was developed after a Song dynasty in a certain time and space.Yan Jiaoran didn't quite understand these things, but she knew that the development level of the current Daqing Dynasty was still far behind that of the Song Dynasty.

Therefore, this "double-sided embroidery" is also a novelty, and the "embroidered picture" made can be regarded as "special".

Of course, this "special" doesn't stop there.

After hearing Yan Jiaoran's words, Empress Fei couldn't help rubbing the phoenix and peony gently with her hands, but she felt that the touch under her hands was different: "Hey, this embroidery method..." Before she finished speaking, she carefully touched the phoenix and peony. Looking at other birds and flowers, a pair of beautiful eyes widened unconsciously: "Who embroidered this? It is so exquisite? It seems that the stitching method of each pattern is different?"

As soon as these words came out, the civil and military officials present didn't feel anything wrong, and those wives and boudoir daughters all exclaimed in a low voice.

Now there are only twenty kinds of embroidery methods in Daqing, but there are hundreds of embroidery methods for the double-sided embroidery of a pair of birds and phoenixes and peonies for the Jin princess alone!
For these women, the method of embroidery is as important as the way the literati write!
Empress Fei looked at Yan Jiaoran in surprise, "Which one of you has such a skill?"

Concubine Xi, who had always been a quiet beauty, couldn't help but said, "Yes, with such skills, it's better to be summoned to the palace, and it's like living among the people."

"That's right, Princess Jin is not willing to part with it." I don't know who said that.

Yan Jiaoran smiled when she heard the words: "Thank you for the kindness of the empress and the imperial concubine. I'm not talented enough to be a 'everyone'. It's just that the boudoir is boring, and I don't know the rhythm of poetry, so I put more thought into this aspect. "

Now Empress Fei and Concubine Xi were stunned - could it be that she embroidered this?

I have never heard of a daughter of a poor family - for the royal family - who can have such skills.

The emperor sat firmly in the high hall, seeing the empress and the noble concubine were a little dazed, he was not interested in embroidery, which women like, so he said: "It seems that the empress likes this gift very much."

Embroidery methods are not in the emperor's concern at all. In his opinion, this kind of thing is only liked by women and cannot shake the foundation of the country.Therefore, even if Princess Jin had hundreds or thousands of embroidery methods, it would be painless to him.

Empress Fei came back to her senses, nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Of course I like it." Although I didn't expect Princess Jin to have such skills, as a queen, although it is impossible to make Mount Tai collapse on her face without changing her face, but in front of courtiers and wives It's easy to maintain a posture.

Concubine Xi also said: "Princess Jin's birthday gift is really special, my sister really envies her."

Don't look at this small pair of embroidery, but it can be said to be "the only one" in the Daqing Dynasty. Concubine Xi is not only envious of this gift, but also envious of the "unique" meaning contained in it.
