A Farmer's Lady's Guide to Getting Rich

Chapter 213
Xin Changning has heard about Wei Wuqi's change from "stupid" to good, and Shen's silk and satin factory being severely fined for accidents.But she didn't have much friendship with Wei Wuqi, so she just listened to it, and didn't bother to pay attention to anything.He only concentrates on doing his own things every day, stares at the craftsmen in the treasure building day and night, and finally makes a jewel-embedded crown the day before Princess Izumo enters the palace.

This crown is based on a kind of eight-petal chrysanthemum unique to Ximan, and 18K gold is made into the shape of overlapping flower branches and vines. The continuous joints form a circle of elegant arc patterns, and a large pear-shaped ruby ​​hangs in the middle.

The gem has changed from the natural round shape without carvings in the past, and cut out regular facets, which increases the refraction of light and highlights the fire of the gem. Huan.

Princess Izumo entered the palace as a concubine, and the concubine is also a concubine, so she cannot wear bright red, so Xin Changning, the jewel on the crown, chose a gradient from rose red to rose red.On the top of the crown, there is another row of fine golden sapphires inlaid, like the sun shining down from the top, reflecting the red light below, which is too beautiful to behold.

As soon as the crown was delivered to Ajelo, he was stunned. He never thought that Xin Changning had such a talent that he could design jewelry by himself!After staring blankly for a while, he said angrily: "I knew I should have given you all the gems, so that Izumo would have more beautiful dowry."

"Don't, I'm almost exhausted from doing this, I won't live any more." Xin Changning waved his hand immediately.

In fact, it is not difficult to make this crown, the difficulty is the gemstone carving on it.The ancients advocated that perfect things should be kept natural, and gemstones were basically not carved, as long as they were polished smooth.But Xin Changning insisted on imposing modern aesthetics and carving gems into facets, which posed a big problem for the craftsmen.

You must know that in ancient times, there were no modern tools such as laser machines and polishing machines. They were all polished by hand. The hardness of ruby ​​is nine, which is quite high. It is not easy to cut it into perfect facets!
At the beginning, the craftsmen had no way to do it, and the things at hand could not cut it at all. In the end, Xin Changning had no choice but to sacrifice the big killer diamond, and finally got it done.

When the crown was delivered to Princess Izumo, she was shocked when she saw many rare jewels, and she couldn't put it down immediately.

On the day of her wedding, Princess Izumo put her hair up high, abandoned all complicated jewelry, and only wore this crown on her head, with gem pendants of the same color hanging from her ears.Such a simple dress highlights the slender neck and the perfect contour of her facial features.

That delicate gemstone color sets off her tender skin, her fragrant% blush% moist, and her beauty is seductive.

This crown complements the exotic dress of Ximan even more, it is very harmonious!

When Princess Izumo walked up to the emperor gracefully and lifted her veil, the emperor saw her fresh and refined attire, unlike other concubines in the past, who were unable to lift their heads under the pressure of various pearl hairpins, and immediately straightened her eyes. His eyes were stunned, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. He took Princess Izumo's hand and said, "It's my good fortune to be accompanied by my concubine!"

To be able to accept Princess Izumo as a concubine, the emperor actually thought he was lucky?
The words spread throughout the harem in an instant, and the teeth of a bunch of concubines were immediately soured.

This is not because Princess Izumo is a princess from a foreign country, who can be married with Western etiquette and can dress up freely.If it were a Dayu woman, she would only be able to wear the concubines' hairpins and hairpins according to the regulations, and they would be all over her head, so there was nothing wrong with that.

Princess Izumo was honored by her birth and blessed by that crown, which made her extremely beautiful and won the emperor's favor in one fell swoop.After the wedding, the emperor unexpectedly stayed in the Jiyue Hall of Concubine Yun for ten days.

There are ten days!You must know that when the emperor and empress got married, the emperor was still a prince, and there was no side concubine in the mansion, and he only stayed for seven days in the current queen's room of the then princess.When Concubine Xiao got married, she only stayed there for three consecutive days.

In this way, everyone in the harem will not only have sour teeth, but itchy teeth with envy and jealousy!
But Prince Ximan is still there, the emperor's newlywed Yan Er is in love with Concubine Yun, no matter how jealous they are, there is nothing they can do, they not only want to swallow this breath in their stomachs, but also praise Concubine Yun in different ways.

Praise her for her beauty, good personality, well-educated, extensive knowledge, and exquisite clothing, food, housing, and transportation... Also, the flower crown she wore when she was married was really beautiful and eye-catching. There are such ingenious craftsmen.

"That's not made by our Westman craftsmen."

Although Concubine Yun has never met Xin Changning, she has learned something from Azheluo, and understands that Xin Changning made this crown and sent it.

As a friend of Azheluo, Concubine Yun is also willing to make friends, so she smiled and replied immediately: "The corolla was sent by my brother Wang, and I heard from him that he asked a capable person from Dayu to make it." Yes, it's just that the able man is unwilling to reveal his identity now, and Brother Wang is always unwilling to say who it is."

"Since that's the case, can you lend us the corolla of the empress?" Hearing this, the concubines couldn't bear it anymore.

"That's fine!" Concubine Yun was not a stingy person, and immediately ordered the maid to bring out the crown.

Everyone immediately gathered around to appreciate it carefully, and someone spotted the money on the back with sharp eyes, and immediately exclaimed: "Ah, it's from Zhenbaolou!"

Another human said: "Not only, look, there is another word!"

"Is it a lucky word? So, it's that strange man again!"

The concubines in the palace are not ill-informed people. The sensation caused by the Treasure Building before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the story of Huayue Chaosheng, which spread in the streets and alleys and was even made into a drama, the author only left Under a "lucky" word.

Who the hell is this person who has such outstanding talent!If you can get it, let him make clothes and jewelry for himself, why worry about not being able to attract the emperor's attention?

It’s just that most concubines can only think about this kind of thinking. After all, their status is not high enough, and their family status is not strong enough. They can only wear jewelry that was rewarded by the palace. If they want to ask someone to do it themselves, they have no money at all.

Of course, Concubine Xiao was not included in this group of people.Concubine Xiao is the eldest daughter of King Zhenbei. Although King Zhenbei had long been disobedient to the emperor, he did not rebel after all.Although people always find various reasons not to come to the capital to meet the emperor, the annual tribute has never been interrupted, and even took the opportunity to send a large amount of money to Concubine Xiao Gui.

In any case, find the person as soon as possible.

Since the thing came from Zhenbaolou, the people in Zhenbaolou must know about it.

So the internal supervisor sent by Concubine Xiao went to the Zhenbao Building immediately, but found that the gate of the Zhenbao Building was closed.After asking, I found out that the old owner of Zhenbao Building had passed away, and they all went back to their hometown to express their condolences.

The former residence of the owner of Zhenbaolou is far away in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is impossible to chase after him, so the inner prisoner turned around and went to Azheluo.

"Ah, you asked that person?"

Azheluo knew that Concubine Xiao Gui and Xiao Qian had been at loggerheads, so how could he tell Xin Changning!Immediately said: "The jewelry made by that man is really beautiful. Xiao Wang has invited him to our Ximan to personally make jewelry for Xiao Wang's mother's [-]th birthday. He left two days ago. It will take half a year to come back!"

"hateful!"

After hearing the news, Concubine Xiao severely smashed one of her bracelets.
