Chapter 385 Dragon Robe
Chapter 385 Dragon Robe
"What a beautiful dress, I like it. Thank you, Princess!"
The queen took the skirt and was overwhelmed with love. She gently stroked the fabric of the skirt and found it very comfortable.
The emperor also liked the robe very much, especially the embroidered dragon, which looked like a real one.
He decided to keep this dragon robe to be worn at banquets for foreign envoys, so that they would know that Daliang's embroidery was the best in the world and their country could not compare.
"I like it too, thank you, Princess!"
The emperor looked at the dragon robe from left to right and couldn't get enough of it.
"Father, as long as Mother likes it!"
Gao Zhijun said to the emperor and the queen.
They all liked it and felt it was worth it for them to dye the cloth themselves.
“Did you embroider all this?”
The queen asked Gao Zhijun.
If she embroidered it, she would be truly multi-talented, proficient in both civil and military affairs, a truly extraordinary woman in the world.
"No, I dyed the fabric and drew the design of the clothes, but it was not embroidered by me. It was embroidered by the embroiderer of my sister's family."
Gao Zhijun explained.
She just dyed the cloth and drew the blueprint.
"What? You dyed such beautiful cloth. Can you cooperate with me to dye this kind of cloth and sell it to other countries?"
The Queen thought that this kind of fabric could definitely make money, and she wanted to make some personal money.
The emperor's treasury was growing bigger and bigger, and she also wanted to earn some money.
"If you are interested, I can do it. But the fabrics you dye cannot be sold in the capital. They can be sold to various prefectures in Daliang or to foreign countries. Because I have already told my cousin that the fabrics she dyed are sold in the capital. In order to make it up to you, I will give you the recipes for dyeing fabrics, and I will also give you other recipes for dyeing fabrics. Don't worry, these are all unique."
In order to make amends to the Queen, Gao Zhijun gave the Queen the recipe for the best ingredients from her previous life for free.
She can't be a person who goes back on her word.
Of course, Gao Zhidan wouldn't blame her.
The queen is the mother of a country. It would be unreasonable to ask her to give in, so she wants to use the cloth from her previous life to make amends.
"That's fine! Since I've already promised, I can't be a person who doesn't keep his word. But I don't know what kind of fabric you mean by unique."
The queen was not an unreasonable person. Since the other party had already agreed, she could not force him to do anything. Besides, she also gave him other unique dye formulas. No matter how you look at it, it was a win for her.
"Mother, I will bring you some cloth in three days. You should buy a good dyeing workshop during the New Year so that you can dye the cloth and make a lot of money sooner."
Soon foreign envoys would come to pay tribute and pay homage. When the queen mother appeared in clothes made of those fabrics, she would surely overwhelm the crowd and amaze everyone. At that time, the white silver would flow in like water.
"Yes! We will start looking for a dyeing workshop tomorrow. Once the princess gives us the formula, we will start working non-stop."
The Queen thought Princess Xiangyun’s suggestion was very good.
She started working now. When foreign envoys came to the court, she would wear skirts made of those fabrics and would surely overwhelm the audience, bringing in many big orders for her dyeing business.
So Gao Zhijun talked to the Queen about some techniques and taboos of dyeing cloth.
The emperor and Huo Jinqian were not interested in these things. They talked about state affairs and played with glass.
After the discussion, Gao Zhijun and Huo Jinqian said goodbye to the Emperor and the Empress. They were going to give gifts to the Empress Dowager, the Concubine Dowager, the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess.
Among the gifts given to the Queen Mother and the Consort, there were also skirts, made of the same fabric.
The pattern embroidered on the empress dowager and concubine dowager is a pattern of a golden dragon flying in the clouds. Apart from the emperor, who has a dragon pattern, only the empress dowager and concubine dowager are qualified to have it.
The Queen Mother and the Concubine Dowager both liked it very much, and Liuli and the others liked it too.
There were many gifts given to the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess. Glass clothes were indispensable, and Gao Zhijun also gave the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess many interesting things.
The Crown Princess only gave birth to a son and a daughter. If she wanted to regain her status, she had to rely on her sons. One son alone was not enough, she needed to give birth to several more.
Gao Zhijun checked the pulses of the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince, and found that they were both fine. It could be that the Crown Prince was too tired for the court and couldn't relax, so it was difficult for him to get pregnant. Or it could be that the Crown Prince often went to other women, so the Crown Princess couldn't get pregnant. This was their family affair, and she couldn't interfere too much.
I could only give the Crown Princess some interesting things to enhance their feelings.
Gao Zhijun and Huo Jinqian left the palace and returned to the princess's residence.
At this time, the servants had already prepared the New Year's Eve dinner and were waiting for the two of them to come back and start eating.
This year's New Year is very lively because everyone gets together.
"Dad, Mom, Grandpa, Grandma, it's time for dinner!"
Gao Zhijun went to call Murong Yuanbo and others who were having fun playing mahjong.
"coming!"
Although everyone was having fun, they still had to eat and then play again after dinner.
Everyone enjoyed the meal very much. After the reunion dinner, Murong Yuanbo and his friends started playing mahjong again.
It was also a pleasure for Gao Zhijun to sit and watch them play.
Among the young women playing poker, Wei Qingyan was the only one who didn't know how to play, so she always lost.
In order to prevent Wei Qingyan from losing too badly, Yang Cuihua signaled to her two aunts-in-law to go easy on Wei Qingyan.
They both understood immediately!
They would let Wei Qingyan win a little from time to time.
Gao Zhijun saw all this with a smile on her face: As long as they like it!
