Chapter 821 She is the miracle itself (second update)
With no one to support him, no matter how many thoughts Zhong Hongmeng has, he can't make any waves.
Zhong Lan stayed in the palace for a full month before happily returning to the Xi tribe. She was also accompanied by Biyu to help her, and with the guards specially assigned to her by the emperor, she should be able to take charge of the Xi tribe smoothly.
.Her sister Zhong Zi stayed in the capital.
Before she left, the porcelain kiln bought by Su Yueling finally successfully produced secret-color porcelain.
No, not only did they restore the secret color porcelain, they even made it better than blue.
Su Yueling took the newly fired secret-color porcelain and played with it fondly.
"The color is really nice."
Smart and elegant, people can't take their eyes away from it.
"All the craftsmen gave them one hundred taels of silver as bonuses. They have worked hard during this period."
Su Yueling had said before that if they could produce secret color porcelain in half a year, each of them would be given a reward of one hundred taels of silver. If they could produce it within a year, they would be given a reward of fifty taels of silver. It is certainly a good idea to be able to produce it so quickly.
Because Su Yueling came up with the formula, but without their painstaking efforts in practice, it would not have been successful so quickly. It was successful in less than half a year, and Su Yueling simply doubled the bonus, which was an incentive for them.
.
"Thank you Master and Master Li for giving them an extra thousand taels of silver."
When they first fired the secret color porcelain, they had frequent problems. Master Li discovered that there was a problem with the kiln. Master Xie was the one who improved the process steps. After his adjustments, the secret color porcelain was fired.
The success rate has improved a lot and the cost has been reduced. These two people have made great contributions, so Su Yueling will naturally give them additional rewards.
The steward smiled and said: "Lao Xie and Lao Li will definitely be very happy when they find out. Lao Xie is waiting to use the money to buy a house and land so that he can marry his son a daughter-in-law."
He was also smacking his lips in his heart, the princess was really not so generous. The total reward for all of them was tens of thousands of taels. They were also very lucky. Originally, the porcelain kiln was about to close down, but they were valued by the princess, and fortune turned around.
The first batch of secret-color porcelain was all sent to Su Yueling. Su Yueling did not want the defective ones, leaving only the perfect ones.
She picked out a few pieces she liked and kept them for herself, not forgetting to leave some for her own people. She divided the rest among them.
Zhong Lan was anxious to go back, so he asked her to take twenty pieces with her first. These things were highly hyped outside, so Zhong Lan could use them as a favor.
She originally wanted to save some for Bao Yi's dowry, but considering that the next batch can be burned in less than half a month, Bao Yi's dowry can be selected from the next batch.
But Zhu Yaer in the palace needs it more now.
Zhu Yaer's health became worse and worse, and she could hardly leave her Changqiu Palace. The eldest princess also told Su Yueling that she would only have less than half a year left to live. Su Yueling had not forgotten that she had promised Zhu Yaer before that if the secret color porcelain
If it is burned, give her some to plant flowers.
She said: "Send all these to Changqiu Palace."
…
In the past few months, the Changqiu Palace has always been filled with the lingering smell of medicine.
After bowls of medicine entered her stomach, Zhu Yaer's body was still weak.
Zhu Yaer's maid came over softly and said, "Master, Empress Hui has sent another batch of medicinal materials."
Zhu Yaer's eyes flashed, "Since it is Sister Hui Bin's wish, I can't live up to it. I took those medicinal materials and boiled them."
The palace maid Hehua asked: "Should I ask the head of the hospital Zhang first?"
Zhu Yaer coughed several times, her voice hoarse, "No need, I can trust Sister Hui Bin's character."
He Hua only felt that their mother-in-law was really too innocent. She said earnestly: "Master, you must not have the intention to harm others, but you must have the intention to guard against others."
Her master was so favored that many ladies in the palace were jealous.
Zhu Yaer said seriously: "Okay, stop talking, I'm Sister Xinhui."
She knew clearly in her heart that Xie Yunzi did everything right and would not tamper with the medicinal materials that were delivered to her. Even before they were delivered, she should have had the imperial doctor examine them and give her a witness.
This time she even brought the three-hundred-year-old wild ginseng, so that everyone would praise her and her sisters for their deep love.
Zhu Yaer's eyes turned dark, and she knew very well that her body was extremely dilapidated. Her body couldn't bear the powerful medicine of three hundred years of wild ginseng, and if she really ate it, something would happen.
"Lotus, bring me my mother's letter."
Generally speaking, letters from outside could not be sent to the palace casually, as they would be suspected of being exchanged privately. But because she only had a short time left, the emperor and empress specially gave her this grace.
Zhu Yaer opened the letter and looked at the familiar words on it. Big tears fell from her eyes and wet the letter. The letter only said that everything was fine at home. Her parents took the money she gave them back and bought the land.
Her younger brother also became a Tongsheng and worshiped her as his teacher. The whole family was grateful for her kindness and hoped that she would take good care of herself in the palace. They might have a chance to meet mother and daughter in the future.
Zhu Yaer knew very well in her heart that these were all fake.
When her mother wrote to her in the past, she would tactfully ask for money, asking her to work hard to take good care of her health and give birth to a prince, so that the Zhu family would have one more prince and grandson.
This letter was not written by her mother at all.
I'm just afraid that something bad has happened to her relatives.
Zhu Ya'er couldn't describe her mood at this time, sad, confused, and indescribable relaxation...
She wiped away her tears and made her decision in her heart.
Two days later, Zhu Yaer received a gift from Su Yueling.
She looked blankly at the secret-colored porcelain neatly placed on the table, "Are these for me?"
Katsuo, who sent it in person, smiled slightly, "This is the first batch fired in the porcelain kiln. The princess personally selected some and sent them to you. The princess said she had promised you before."
Zhu Yaer also recalled what Su Yueling had said to her, but at that time she thought she was just comforting her and didn't take it seriously.
Unexpectedly, a miracle really happened.
It only took the princess a few months to replicate the secret-color porcelain that the aristocratic families had been working on for years without any results. This can be said to be unimaginable, as if she itself represented a miracle.
She became agitated and coughed again.
After coughing for a while, Zhu Yaer looked at Shengnan and asked, "Are these all at my disposal?"
Katsuo said: "Since I gave it to you, it is yours. Even if you want to throw it and listen to the sound, you can."
Drop it on the ground and listen to the sound?
Zhu Yaer really couldn't bear to leave.
She raised the corners of her lips slightly and pointed at the two secret-colored porcelain pots that most resembled flowerpots. "Choose two of the best orchids blooming in the garden, plant them in them, and send them to Yanchun Palace."
"Sister Hui Bin treats me so well, I should give her some gifts in return."
