Qing Palace: Biography of Concubine Shu

Chapter 421 The Last Day in Jiangnan

After summer, the temperature in the south generally rose. Kangxi couldn't sit still, and was about to head north. Kangxi was planning to go to the summer resort. News came from the Mongolian eyeliner. The Mongolian princes began to conspire and even united. The iron-hat princes outside the pass worked together to force Kangxi to compromise.

Ever since the Empress Dowager left, Kangxi has received too many privileges from Mongolia, and the princes outside the pass have also been suppressed by Kangxi's iron-fisted policy, so they dare not even make any unreasonable demands.

When news came from Mongolia, Kangxi decided to go outside the pass to stabilize the princes and let them understand that the royal family will always stand together. Otherwise, if there is a slight change in Mongolia, the safety outside the pass may not be guaranteed. .

After all, the place outside the pass was the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, and Kangxi had to go to stabilize it. In the afternoon, he issued an impromptu order, and in the early morning, Yujia set off to worship the ancestors outside the pass.

"Little boy, how much winter palace clothes did you bring?" Yinzhen walked from the study to the inner bedroom, opened the curtain and asked.

Shu Yun tilted his head, staring at Yinzhen.

"Master, what's the matter with you?" Shu Yun was slightly taken aback. Is there something urgent?
The weather in the south is so hot, even if you go to the summer resort, you probably won't need winter clothes.

"We're going outside the customs. I happen to be taking a bath this afternoon. Let's go outside to buy some winter fabrics. After we're outside the customs, let the embroiderer who brought me prepare winter clothes." Yinzhen was still worried.

"Ah?!" Shu Yun was stunned, and he was going to go outside the pass, but there were many things over there, and his eyes sparkled instantly.

"Let's go, change your clothes, go out quickly!" Yinzhen thought about what to buy, and asked Su Peisheng to bring more people there.

"Master, do you want to send a heart to Fujin?" Shu Yun looked at Yinzhen and said.

Fujin wanted to make Yinzhen earlier than Huqiu. This time, he not only went to the south, but also went outside the pass. The journey was far enough.

"No, we passed by the capital, and Huang Ama said that he would not take any rest, so he went directly outside the pass." Yinzhen said coldly.

Shu Yun changed into the clothes she was going out, and changed the jewelry on her head to some ordinary ones, and followed Yinzhen into the carriage.

"Little boy, this is the last time we come out. If you like something, you can buy as much as you can, and if you want to buy some, let the shop here send it to the mansion directly!" Yin Zhen pondered for a while, and decided to let Shu Yun make the decision .

"Master, I don't care about this matter. Fujin and the two princesses both like the things my master buys. If I choose them, they will definitely not be happy." Shu Yun pouted slightly, and said directly.

"Forget it, I'll let Su Peisheng buy it, you can just buy your own!" Yinzhen pinched her little face to make her relax.

"Master, won't it be winter when we go back?" Shu Yun asked curiously.

"It's supposed to be outside the pass for the New Year. It will definitely be very cold outside the pass. Your winter clothes must be thick." Yinzhen told Shu Yun.

Shu Yun was stunned: "Master, I haven't passed the border, so I don't know the situation there."

Yinzhen patted his forehead, Shu Yun grew up in the south, so he definitely doesn't know the situation outside the pass.

"Little boy, there is a master!" Yinzhen has no idea, he went there once before, when Concubine Tong Gui was still there, all the clothes were arranged by Concubine Tong.

"Su Peisheng, after you go back, ask the eldest mother to come over!" Yinzhen ordered.

"Yes!" The grandma followed, and Yinzhen arranged the grandma to recuperate in another courtyard.

"Master, I think, let the eldest grandma follow you to the outside of the pass, and don't send the eldest grandma back to the mansion." Shu Yun found that the smile on the eldest grandma's face was much more than that in the mansion after she went out.

Yinzhen was stunned, what Shu Yun said was true, the eldest mother should be left behind, it has not passed outside the pass for many years.

"Master, we're here!" Su Peisheng said directly.

The two got out of the carriage, went slowly, walked into the shop, and looked at the pieces of fabric on the counter.

"Is there anything new?" Yinzhen looked at the items on the counter, thinking of preparing the best for Shu Yun.

"Yes, yes, yes!" The shopkeeper hurriedly said three yes, he saw that the young master was very kind to his wife. "Young master, you are right, my place is considered to have the most complete cloth in Suzhou and Hangzhou!"

Shu Yun stood behind Yinzhen and didn't say anything, seeing that the fabrics were actually very delicate.

"Su Peisheng, go pick some and send them back to the mansion when you go back!" Yinzhen ordered.

"Yes!" Su Peisheng took the order.

"Look carefully here. As soon as there are fine products coming out, just look at those more. The Su embroidery here is good, even better than the embroidery made in Neizao." Yinzhen asked someone to inquire, and there are several cloth shops here. shop, only this one has the best products.

The shopkeeper took several bolts of fine cloth, two of which Shuyun couldn't use.

"Master, I don't like the red and magenta embroidered cloth." Shu Yun said directly.

The shopkeeper was a little embarrassed. These two horses are treasures, and many officials and family members hope to get them.

"The lake blue ones are good, and the powder blue ones are fine too!" Shu Yun likes these two colors, and the closet is basically filled with these two colors.

"The light-yellow one is fine too!" Yinzhen pointed to the light-yellow one, "There are very few light-yellow cloths here."

Shu Yun was stunned, it is rare to see goose yellow outside the palace, how did the fabric flow out?

"My lord, you can't wear this color outside!" The shopkeeper reminded me that I can have this piece of cloth, and I also bought it from a shop in the capital. It said that Long Live Lord is coming to the south, so I must To leave some. "The shopkeeper also received the news that Kangxi would leave tomorrow, and he planned to make a move as soon as possible to prevent himself from causing trouble.

Yinzhen nodded, "Wrap these three pieces of cloth for me."

"Is there any fabric for Grandpa's clothes?" Yinzhen didn't bring enough winter clothes, so he couldn't go out, so he had to wear regular clothes.

The shopkeeper hurriedly asked the shop waiter to bring the new royal blue, blue and other fabrics. She took a look and found that the fabrics were all dark flowers, and the embroidery was very delicate. From a distance, these fabrics were more delicate than the inner ones.

"Master, I want all these pieces!" Shu Yun pointed to the six pieces of fabric that he took out, "Master, you pay for it."

"Su Peisheng, pay!" Yinzhen glanced at Shu Yun.

Shu Yun followed Yin Zhen out of the shop, and the shopkeeper was relieved to see that all the cloth had been removed.

"Little darling, let's go to the teahouse first!" Yinzhen glanced at Shu Yun and said.

In the teahouse not far away, Yinzhen went to book a private room on purpose. After the two entered the private room, they started storytelling on the first floor. Shu Yun listened attentively to the storytelling. The little stories in it made her He pursed his lips and laughed.

"Master, it would be great if we could have such a storyteller in our mansion," Shu Yun smiled, "Do you want to send back the cook from the south in advance?"

"No, let's stay and go outside the pass together!" Yinzhen said directly.
