At that moment, Liuli found a sister who could leave the palace to handle the matter.
Outside the palace.
The area around the Yongxin clothing store was already overcrowded. Not only were there many people from the palace who wanted to order new clothes, but Jiang Yan could not wait to wear them out the next day after receiving them. So, All the noble ladies in the Pingjin Marquis Mansion fell in love with the new style and wanted to make new clothes one after another.
Later, Jiang Yan wore new clothes and went out to have a gathering with her sisters in Kyoto. The ladies saw the new clothes she was wearing and asked about the Yongxin clothing store.
Although Zhuang Qing had thought that having Jiang Yan and Qin Zhao advertise for Yongxin clothing would be effective, she never thought that the effect would be so significant.
These two events caused a sensation. For a time, the Yongxin Garment Shop was surrounded by people, and the surrounding area was also blocked.
With no other choice, Zhuang Qing had to hand out waiting signs and ask everyone to queue up. After receiving the signs for the day, they had to wait until the next day to queue up again.
Because a lot of business suddenly increased, the manpower of the garment shop was not enough, so it had to recruit people at short notice to make clothes.
Although Qin Zhao could not come out of the palace to watch the excitement in person, he sent people out early in the morning to watch the excitement here.
Baoyu described the spectacular scene of the ready-made clothing store, and Qin Zhao was also a little shocked: "A woman's purchasing power is terrible."
She and Zhuang Qing were still not fully prepared, so they were now short of manpower. They were most afraid that their rival clothing stores would imitate the new styles after receiving them, and their own production would not be able to keep up, thus losing the opportunity.
At that moment, she told Baoyu this way: "When you and Baoyuan leave the palace, you must find the best tailor for Qing'er. What we make is original, and of course we have to hire the best tailor. Price is not an issue..."
As long as their original styles are authentic and their tailors' craftsmanship is superb, other ready-to-wear shops can't imitate the essence even if they want to, so the impact won't be too great.
Baoyu took the order and left.
Qin Zhao was secretly annoyed: "Qing'er and I are both novices. We just thought of coming up with the style first, but we didn't expect it to become popular so quickly. I just hope it's not too late to hire a tailor master now!"
At this time, Ruxi came over and said, "Miss Zhuang is short of manpower, maybe I can help."
Qin Zhao was stunned: "Master, can you make clothes?"
Ruxi smiled and said, "I'm afraid Liang Di has forgotten that I am a palace servant of the Department of Clothes. Whether it's tailoring clothes or doing embroidery, I can do it."
Qin Zhao was dumbfounded for a moment: "Why can Master know everything?"
She really forgot that Ruxi was once a palace maid in the Clothing Department, which was in charge of the clothing of the emperor and the concubines in the harem. Ruxi was naturally an expert in this field.
"Are you sure you want to go to Yongxin Garment Store to help?" Qin Zhao hesitated.
After all, Ruxi is also a member of the palace, and she is the wife Xiao Ce found for her. She let Ruxi out of the palace privately, which seems to be against the ancestral rules, and she must also explain this matter to Xiao Ce.
There is another way, which is to ask the Queen Mother for instructions and ask her to agree.
"Liangdi knows everything now. I can't teach Liangdi anything if I stay in Wangyueju. If I go to Yongxin Garment Shop, I can continue to help Liangdi on the other hand, I'm sure." Ruxi's eyes were solemn: "I heard Liang Di talk about her yearning for life outside the palace more than once. The more I heard it, the more I yearned for it."
When Qin Zhao heard that there was nothing to hesitate about here, she immediately made a decision: "Okay, wait a minute, I'll go ask for permission first -"
She wanted to ask the Queen Mother for instructions, but she still felt that Xiao Ce had the right to know, even though she and Xiao Ce were currently in a cold war.
Originally, she had planned that she would never take the initiative to talk to Xiao Ce in the future.
"I'll go ask His Majesty the Crown Prince for instructions first, please wait a moment." After Qin Zhao finished speaking, he walked away.
She didn't see the relieved smile on Ru Xi's face.
She didn't know at this moment that Ruxi had seen that she and Xiao Ce had been in a cold war for several days and had not reconciled, so she felt that if she left the palace, she would definitely go to Xiao Ce.
Qin Zhao left the back of Wangyue Residence and went straight to the main hall.
Wu Xirou happened to be waiting for pen and ink in the study. Qin Zhao's sudden arrival surprised Wu Xirou, and Xiao Ce was also surprised.
Qin Zhao was too lazy to salute and directly stated his purpose: "Ruxi plans to go to Qing'er's clothing store to help. I am here to ask your highness if Ruxi can leave the palace?"
"Since she is your wife, no matter where she goes, it is up to you." Xiao Ce was happy to receive this.
Qin Zhao felt that this was reasonable.
Since Xiao Ce sent Ruxi to Wangyue Residence in the first place, he was naturally hers. Whether Ruxi stayed or left depended on her words.
"Okay, I understand." Qin Zhao said and wanted to leave.
Xiao Ce frowned when he saw this, stopped her and said, "Qin Liangdi, please wait a moment."
Qin Zhao turned around as he was told.
Wu Xirou was an eye-catching person. When she saw this, she bent down and said: "Your Highness, I will go and find Jixiang to serve you."
After that, she deliberately took away the palace maids outside so that Xiao Ce and Qin Zhao could have some space alone.
When Qin Zhao saw this scene, he felt that Wu Xirou was experienced in handling things. No wonder Xiao Ce liked Wu Xirou serving the pen and ink in front of him.
There was no third person in the study, so Xiao Cecai said: "Are you still angry with Gu Gugu?"
Qin Zhao shook his head and didn't want to speak.
"Last time I went out of the palace privately without consulting with me beforehand and came back so late. I was worried about you so I spoke unscrupulously. You were also at fault. What you said was not pleasant to the ears, which angered me.
Xiao Ce stepped forward, "It was Gu's fault. Can you please forgive me a lot?"
Qin Zhao wanted to say that he was a superior Crown Prince, so how could she be angry with him?
When she met Xiao Ce's tender eyes, she said in a low voice: "The Queen Mother told me that day that it was Your Highness who regretted locking me up so that I could walk out of Wangyue Residence smoothly. Sometimes I was there.
I wonder, when His Highness sits in that position one day, will he banish me into the cold palace if he is unhappy?"
By then, there will definitely not be a big shot like the Queen Mother coming to intercede for her.
Just like in the previous life, no matter how angry Xiao Ce was, he didn't push her into the cold palace, so there is a high probability that this kind of thing will not happen.
But she still thinks, if that day comes, will she have to wait in the cold palace until she grows old and dies?
Xiao Ce didn't expect that she would think so far ahead.
"This won't happen." Xiao Ce lowered his eyebrows coldly and shouted in a deep voice.
"It's hard to say what will happen in the future. His Highness is so sure now, but in anger, it may still happen like last time..."
Before Qin Zhao finished speaking, Xiao Ce embraced her: "If I say no, I won't, and I will never!"
Qin Zhao couldn't be happy at this moment either.
She always felt that things were different now. She had never been in his heart in her previous life. Maybe there was someone who really moved his heart in the previous life, but that person might not be Wu Xiyu, but... Wu Xirou.
