Although he was slandering in his heart, Rong Ji also thought that this idea was okay. Mainly because of the Queen Mother's words that convinced him, he could not let the sensible children suffer.
Those ministers in the imperial court would like to receive 10% of the reward for their meritorious service, and they always look like they have been wronged. It can be said that there are very few people like Su Yueling.
It's summer now, and ice cubes are very easy to sell. I'm afraid I can earn back a royal village in a month.
Rong Ji nodded slightly, "The Queen Mother is right, then I will reward Su Yueling with a village with 5,000 acres of land." Generally, if the imperial village rewards, it will be rewarded together with the steward and tenants, and the deed of sale will be sent to Su Yueling.
He thought for a while and said, "I heard that the child likes fancy clothes, so why not give her two more embroiderers from the palace?"
The Queen Mother was very satisfied with this and paid attention to the emperor. "The cantaloupe and grapes sent by Yueling are very delicious, better than the tributes. I sent some to you, please remember to taste them."
Rong Ji was a little touched. His mother still cared about him. He knew his mother's temperament. Tasty is delicious. He would not deliberately exaggerate just because he liked someone. For her to praise him so highly, the fruit must have its merits.
People's place.
Not long after Su Yueling returned home, she received a gift package from heaven.
A grand palace and two embroiderers.
For her, this was an unexpected surprise. An imperial village is worth tens of thousands of taels, which can be said to be a windfall. What satisfied her the most was the two embroiderers. Her original embroidery skills were also
Exquisite, but compared with the palace, it is definitely still a bit far away. Basically, the best ones are selected into the palace.
She happily drew up a list of guests for the banquet, and invited all the female relatives who attended the weak crown ceremony, except Xia Zhiyao, and she also selected three people.
These three families were selected based on Grandma Zheng's analysis of the power in the capital. They are all out-and-out royalists, and their reputations in the capital are not bad. None of them have a reputation for being domineering. If there are nine people, this is just the right number.
, it won’t be too much and looks cluttered, and it won’t be too little and there will be no atmosphere.
Su Yueling is very popular right now, and the people she invites can't help but want to show off, so they can't help but mention it in front of others as if nothing happened.
Xia Zhiyao naturally heard it. She could still pretend to be steady in front of others, but she was so angry that she fell backwards. She didn't care about Su Yueling's invitation. But she found out that among the female guests who had participated in the weak crown ceremony before, she was the only one who was excluded.
.Su Yueling clearly deliberately opposed her and showed his displeasure towards her.
Originally, she was ridiculed once because of the Queen Mother, and now that Su Yueling has done this again, won't anyone be able to step on her casually in the future?
Unable to swallow this breath, she thought and came up with an idea. Of course she would not take the initiative to take action against Su Yueling, who was at the height of her power, but she could kill someone with a borrowed knife. She didn't believe that she was the only one who didn't like Su Yueling. She had to know that there was another person in the capital.
There are many admirers. If she makes a move, some sympathetic people will take action for her.
So soon, the reputation of Su Yueling's beauty spread around Qin Sipei, the most beautiful woman in the capital.
Qin Sipei's maid, Hongxiu, went out to help her lady stand in line to buy her favorite sauce duck, but came back with an annoyed look on her face.
Qin Sipei, who has the appearance of a fish and a goose, looked at his personal maid and asked: "Who made you so angry?"
Hongxiu's mouth was full of oil, "Who else could it be, but the head of Weiguo County, who has been in the limelight in the capital recently?"
Qin Sipei's voice was cold, "I remember rumors that she is a rare and peerless beauty."
Hongxiu said: "Although I have never met her, she cannot be as good-looking as a young lady."
"It's okay if she wants to be famous. Why should she step on her?"
When she went out to buy soy sauce duck, she heard someone praising Su Yueling for her beauty, saying that in front of her, the young lady was just vulgar.
Su Yueling can say that the young lady is uneducated and incompetent, or that she is not virtuous and virtuous enough, but she cannot say that the young lady is vulgar.
Her lady is the most beautiful in the world!
Qin Sipei said: "If this rumor is spread by others, it is obviously to sow discord between us. If Su Yueling spread it, I would like to meet her to see if she is really that beautiful."
In particular, Su Yueling's wine was particularly clear and mellow. Her uncle was invited to watch the ceremony and brought back a jar of sake. Qin Sipei couldn't forget it after drinking it once. Unfortunately, her uncle guarded the wine closely, and she
I can't even think of drinking another bowl.
I heard that this wine was also created by Su Yueling. If she could get acquainted with her, wouldn't she be able to drink wine often?
Qin Sipei said to Hongxiu: "Grind the ink for me, and I'll write a letter to Su Yueling to see if I can ask her for an invitation."
Hongxiu suddenly realized that the young lady must have wanted Su Yueling to recognize the facts and be a little self-aware.
She immediately said actively: "I'll do it!"
…
One day later, Su Yueling looked at the letter in front of her and fell into thinking.
The letter was from Qin Sipei, the former most beautiful woman in the capital. She has been famous for a long time and has been fascinated by her. It would be her honor to get acquainted with her.
After Su Yueling came to the capital, she had often heard of this beauty. She knew that she was very private and appeared in front of people only a handful of times a year. She also heard that she was as beautiful as a fairy and had a cool temperament like Chang'e.
There are many princes and nobles who admire her, but no one can fall in her eyes.
Some people speculate that the Qin family has not arranged a marriage for her so that she can participate in the draft. With her family background and appearance, if she enters the palace, the lowest initial title is Zhaoyi.
Su Yueling has never met Qin Sipei until now, and it is impossible to say that she is not curious about her.
She asked Aunt Zheng, "Auntie, have you seen this young lady from the Qin family in the palace?"
Aunt Zheng said: "I met her once, and she seems to have a quiet temperament." Except for greeting her at the beginning, she remained silent and allowed other ladies to express themselves.
She sounded a little puzzled, "This Miss Qin has always been the least fond of going out. She basically refuses invitations on weekdays. I didn't expect that she would take the initiative to write to you this time."
Su Yueling felt that the other party was also curious, right?
Su Yueling really wanted to see the other party. Since the other party had this intention, she simply agreed. That was her territory, and she was the protagonist. There was no way she could be plotted on her own territory.
If the other person's personality matches hers, she will have one more friend in the future.
So Su Yueling asked someone to send an invitation to the Qin family.
When the news came out, the whole capital was trembling. These two were both extremely beautiful beauties. It was unknown how much turmoil would arise when they met each other.
