After the Farming and Weaving Festival, the new robes made that day will be sent by the Ministry of Household Affairs to transport them to remote and barren places. This good thing that benefits the people is naturally worthy of praise, but for the people of Lijing City, what deserves the most attention is not this matter, but two other things.
One of them is that Su Wanxiang and Shang Sisi actually created a unique embroidery method. This kind of thing has never happened before after Bai Suxuan, and people are full of curiosity about this novel embroidery method. Suddenly, there was a trend among women inside and outside the capital to learn the double-picture embroidery method.
Another incident is the marriage between Anling Wang Yan Su and Su Wanxiang. Emperor Qing personally engaged in marriage in front of his courtiers at the Farming and Weaving Festival. On the next day, he sent Li Ying, the eunuch in charge, to Su Qing's Mansion to issue a formal decree. Because the wish Su Wanxiang made at Cian Temple on Cangwu Mountain had not yet expired, the marriage was scheduled for three months later, that is, in August. As for the marriages between Shang Sisi and Nie Ren, and Shang Chuchu and Qin Feifan, they have not yet set a date because they involve the Yunshao Kingdom. The marriage between Yan Su and Su Wanxiang came from behind and was decided before them.
This news came out after Li Ying went to the Su Mansion to announce the decree. Because the person involved, Yan Su, was very famous in Lijing City, the news of the marriage spread extremely quickly. Before long, even the children in the streets and alleys of Lijing City knew about it.
People paid more attention to this matter than they imagined, so when Qin Jiu was choosing a rouge hairpin ring at the rouge shop in West Market, she could hear people talking about this matter from time to time.
It seems impossible to say that I don¡¯t feel anything at all. Human beings are not like grass and trees. Even if we are cold and heartbroken, we will still feel uncomfortable sometimes.
"I really didn't expect that Prince Anling was engaged to Miss Su. Why didn't I hear that Prince Anling liked Miss Su before? I only knew that Prince Yan liked Miss Su." A woman in pink clothes picked out rouge. He whispered.
The woman in green clothes beside her smiled and said: "Yes, I didn't know that before. However, since King Anling is engaged to Miss Su, he must like Miss Su very much. After all, it has been more than three years since Miss Bai's accident. Yes, he must have come out of that relationship, I am also happy for Prince Anling, and hope that the emperor's uncle will not come to destroy them this time."
The woman in pink said teasingly: "Don't you like Prince Anling? He married someone else, and you are still happy for him?"
The woman in green clothes blushed, looked around, glanced at Qin Jiu, stretched out her fingers and pinched the woman in pink clothes' arm, lowered her voice and said: "Keep your voice down, make sure I don't tear your mouth apart."
The woman in pink curled her lips, "What are you afraid of? I just like King Yan and I'm not afraid of people knowing."
The woman in green clothes smiled and said: "Then why don't you ask a matchmaker? Maybe King Yan will marry you."
"What nonsense are you talking about? No woman would ask for marriage." The woman in pink pretended to pinch the woman in green, and the two laughed together.
Speaking of which, the marriage between Yan Su and Su Wanxiang has attracted so much attention, mainly because of Yan Yu. There are more people who know that Yan Yu likes Su Wanxiang than those who know that Yan Su likes Su Wanxiang. After all, it is difficult not to know whether Yan Yu showed his love in such a high-profile manner during the Lantern Festival.
Qin Jiu picked out three boxes of rouge powder and two boxes of lipstick. When she woke up this morning, she felt that her face was getting paler. If she didn't cover it with rouge, people would notice it sooner or later. The shopkeeper wrapped the rouge, and Loquat paid the money and stepped forward to take the rouge.
This rouge shop is located in the West City. It can be said that the most prosperous street in Lijing City is Tianmen Street. As far as you can see, there are restaurants, inns, and shops selling pearls, agates, gold, silver, and silk. However, the most lively place in Lijing City is not Tianmen Street. But the West Market.
Stepping into the West Market, those big restaurants and inns are gradually disappearing. Calligraphy and painting shops, cloth shops, pastry shops, rouge and gouache shops and stalls of small toys are dizzying. The fragrance of rouge and gouache and the sweet fragrance of pastries permeate the air.
Qin Jiu left Rouge Shop and turned to Jinji Pastry Shop across the street. This pastry shop is famous in Lijing City. The shopkeeper Jin Da makes exquisite pastries, so the shop is very prosperous. At that time, even she and Princess Zhaoping in the palace heard about the reputation of this shop and came to buy it several times in disguise. Qin Jiu's favorite is the hibiscus cake in this shop. It is said that the recipe is so complicated that even the imperial chef in the palace cannot make it.
It¡¯s been many years since I¡¯ve eaten this pastry, which has the sweet smell of hibiscus and is light red in color and shaped like a hibiscus flower. It¡¯s a food that Qin Jiu can¡¯t resist. But Zhaoping didn't like eating it because she said it tasted weird.
Loquat looked at the sky and asked, "Why hasn't Princess Zhaoping come yet?"
Qin Jiu smiled slightly, "Since Cai Gongfeng said that Princess Zhaoping will go out of the palace to buy cakes today, she will definitely come. Let's wait."
Qin Jiu stood outside Jinji Pastry Shop, recalling the taste of hibiscus cake, she thought?Don't buy anything else, pretending to have been shopping in the West Market for a long time. At this moment, I suddenly saw a graceful figure flashing past the pastry shop. She quickly turned around and turned to the calligraphy and painting shop on the side.
Qin Jiu pretended to admire a painting in the shop, but glanced at the pastry shop from the corner of her eye. After a while, she saw Su Wan, Xiang Yunhuan in plain skirt, walking away from Jinji pastry shop, accompanied by two maids. come out.
The two maids each held two boxes of pastries in their hands. Qin Jiu's eyes swept over Su Wanxiang and then focused on a maid in green clothes following her.
This maid Qin Jiu recognized was Cuilan. It was she who tried unsuccessfully to assassinate Shang Chuchu that day at Mingyue Villa, the Royal Villa in Jiuman Mountain. However, during the trial of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Cuilan overturned the case. Afterwards, this Cuilan was released from the palace, and was later met and taken in by Su Wanxiang. From then on, she followed Su Wanxiang. Cuilan was highly skilled in martial arts, and she became Su Wanxiang's effective maid and bodyguard.
"Girl, do you like this painting?" the shopkeeper of the calligraphy and painting shop said ambiguously.
Qin Jiu's mind was not on the painting at all. He was just looking at the paintings and calligraphy to look at what was going on outside. When asked by the shopkeeper, he nodded and said, "I like it very much. Please help me put it away and take the money."
Loquat looked at Qin Jiu with a strange look, but Qin Jiu didn't care because her attention was still outside.
A gorgeous carriage came slowly, and several maids in men's clothing rode on tall horses, surrounding the carriage. The pearl curtain in front of the chariot was half-draped, with golden tassels flying in the wind, and a graceful figure could be vaguely seen inside. The chariot stopped in front of Jinji Pastry Shop, and Princess Zhaoping, dressed in men's clothing, walked slowly down.
In the past, when Zhaoping and she went out in disguise, they kept a low profile. They were always afraid that others would know their identities and see that they were disguised as men, and they were afraid that the news of their going out would reach the ears of Emperor Qing and Empress Bai.
"I don't think a few years later, Princess Zhaoping changed her past style and became high-profile. Speaking of which, Zhaoping no longer lives in the palace. Although he has reconciled, he is married and living in his own mansion. Emperor Qing must not care much about it.
There were many pedestrians on the street, but when Princess Zhaoping appeared in such a large formation, the bustling crowd immediately became commotion and ducked to one side. However, Su Wanxiang saw Zhao Ping and stepped forward to salute.
Princess Zhaoping glanced at Su Wanxiang indifferently, then walked past her and headed towards Jinji Pastry Shop. However, when she passed by Su Wanxiang's two maids, she suddenly stopped.
Qin Jiu looked a little surprised when she saw Princess Zhaoping glance at the pastry box bought by Su Wanxiang.
"Girl, do you have any other paintings you like?" the shopkeeper of the calligraphy and painting shop asked with a smile.
Qin Jiu smiled and said, "Thank you, shopkeeper. I'll take a look."
The shopkeeper made a deal and felt very happy. You know, the painting Qin Jiu just bought is worth a lot of money. He led Qin Jiu to sit on a chair and spread the paintings and calligraphy in the store on the table for Qin Jiu to watch.
After Su Wanxiang and Princess Zhaoping chatted for a while, they left in a carriage. Princess Zhaoping entered Jinji Pastry Shop. After a while, Princess Zhaoping and several male maids holding pastry boxes walked out of the shop.
Seeing that the time had come, Qin Jiu strolled out of the calligraphy and painting shop, pretending to have met Princess Zhaoping by chance, and gave her a slight bow.
"I didn't expect to meet the princess here. Did the princess come here to buy cakes?" Qin Jiu asked with a slight smile.
Princess Zhaoping was slightly startled when she first saw Qin Jiu, and then she smiled lightly and said, "What a coincidence. I just met Miss Su, and now I meet Master Jiu again. I came to buy osmanthus cakes, and Master Jiu also came to buy pastries." ?"
"I came here to buy rouge and gouache. I happened to fall in love with a painting and bought it." Qin Jiu looked at her and motioned to Loquat to open the painting she just bought in the calligraphy and painting shop to show Princess Zhaoping.
" Loquat always obeyed Qin Jiu's words, but for some reason this time, he held the scroll without blinking and seemed not to see Qin Jiu's wink.
Qin Jiu frowned, but fortunately Princess Zhaoping had no intention of looking at the painting.
"Princess, that day you said you wanted a sachet embroidered with carefree flowers. I don't know what color the princess wants. I met the princess here today. I know there is a shop with very good fabrics, not far from here. Yuan, princess, can you go with me to select fabrics when you are free?"
Princess Zhaoping smiled and said: "You're welcome, Mr. Jiu. There should be a lot of fabrics in Siwei's shop, but I let Mr. Jiu take the trouble to choose in the store. In that case, that's fine."
At the moment, Qin Jiu and Zhao Ping walked across the street together and walked to the end of the West Market. There was an alley here. Outside were all cloth shops, but inside the alley was a place where ordinary people lived together. They had rough bricks and tiles. Extremely shabby.
Qin Jiu led Princess Zhaoping into a fabric shop and chose a piece of lake green fabric. This color fabric paired with golden worry-free flowers will look extremely elegant when embroidered. When the two of them came out of the cloth shop and passed through the alley, they saw that the alley was full of people and it was very lively.
