The favorite concubine of the system is in power

Chapter 383
Previously, Emperor Jiawen handed over the management of the accounts of the internal treasury to Xiao Wanwan, but the distribution of monthly silver for palace maids and eunuchs was the big one after all, and this item had always been in the hands of the queen.

The slaves in Yongxiu Palace are now untouchable figures in the entire palace, and their moon silver will naturally not be tampered with, so Xiao Wanwan has always been ignorant of such tricks.

"Who made the dress that was sent to Yongxiu Palace?"

As soon as these words came out, the shoulders of the embroidered ladies kneeling on the ground kept shaking. They lowered their heads, and no one dared to step forward to answer.

"The style of the clothes is pretty good, and I like the color and design, but I don't know which embroiderer was careless and left a silver needle in it," Xiao Wanwan pursed her lips lightly. There was no anger on his face, "Fortunately, the maid in my palace shook before getting dressed, otherwise I'm afraid I'm really going to suffer from the needle stick."

"... Your Majesty," a young embroiderer raised her head, she swallowed and pretended to be calm, "We didn't put that needle in."

Xiao Wanwan raised her eyebrows: "Why are you so sure that you didn't put that needle in? When you do things, there will inevitably be omissions. You may not let it go, but it is also possible for others to accidentally fall on it."

"Absolutely impossible." Xiu Niang was decisive.

Xiao Wanwan's eyes were full of doubts.

Xiu Niang pinched her palm, she didn't want to be such an early bird, but if she didn't defend herself, I'm afraid that the lives of the group of them would be here today.

"The material chosen by the empress is the worst," the embroiderer said word by word, "the material is not woven finely, although the servants made it thicker by double-folding, but in order to make it The concubines in the palace have regular dresses, and they always use the thinnest silver needles, and it is impossible for that needle to get into this rough fabric without slipping out."

Eunuch Wen, who was kneeling beside him, suddenly changed his face when he heard these words. He turned sideways, disregarded the rules, and began to reprimand the embroiderer who spoke just now in front of Xiao Wanwan.

"Bold slave! How can you talk nonsense in order to get rid of the crime!"

"Your maidservant is not talking nonsense! My maidservant is telling the truth," the embroiderer raised her head, "If you don't believe me, my maidservant can bring a batch of materials right now to see if the silver needle is hanging on it."

Xiao Wanwan pondered for a while, and agreed to her approach.

The embroiderer stood up on her knees, took a deep breath, walked to the table where she usually embroidered things, picked up a silver needle and stuck it upright into the fabric.

The tiny silver needle really fell off.

"The silver needles used in the clothes that girls wear are all extremely thin," Xiao Wanwan tilted her head, and there was a silver needle in the box she brought, and it was indeed as thin as a cow's hair.

Eunuch Wen was already sweating profusely. Xiao Wanwan stroked her fingers and asked slowly: "I just listened to it for a long time, but there is another point that I don't understand. The cloth used in the palace is the most inferior material."

"...Miss."

"This explanation is somewhat different from what Eunuch Wen and I said a few days ago." Xiao Wanwan raised the corners of her lips and smiled, "Then, Eunuch Wen, who gave you the right to assign the most inferior materials to you?" For Mr. Liang, you are still trying to deceive your superiors and conceal this palace, huh?"
