I fought back after reselling my engagement
Chapter 205 Gift
Chun Jiang bowed his head and reported: "Princess Rongning's wedding, her husband is Zhou Yijun of the Zhou University Scholar's Mansion. Miss Cui said that she would give a generous gift, and she gave a 1.8-inch oval glass mirror inlaid with gemstones; Princess Changle's wedding, her husband is Wang Heng, a talented scholar from Luoyang, and it is not appropriate to show favoritism, so she also gave a 1.8-inch long glass mirror inlaid with red and blue corals."
These two were both close acquaintances and good friends of the princess, so they gave generous gifts. Glass mirrors were rare, and this one was made by the only glass master in the world. Later, it was made into a mirror by the princess, cut and inlaid by craftsmen, and sent to the capital.
There were words engraved on the back, indicating that it was a wedding gift from Princess Jiaxing to them.
Su Zhen said slowly, "Chun Xiao is a man who knows his limits. He gave a good gift."
Chunjiang asked, "Princess Shouning is engaged, and Miss Zhou from the mansion of Grand Secretary Zhou is also getting married. The gifts for these two..."
"Give me a one foot and two inch glass mirror inlaid with gems and red and blue corals." Jiaxing thought it was appropriate to give these as gifts. Glass mirrors had not yet been widely used and were only used by the royal family and nobles. Common mirrors were six inches, and there were very few mirrors like this one that were more than one foot in size.
"Fourth Miss Xie is about to reach the age of marriage. How should we prepare her marriage gift? After she reaches the age of marriage, she will marry into the Fifth Prince's mansion as a concubine."
The fifth prince was named "Prince Shun" and Princess Fanghua was "Princess Shun". It was heard that Princess Fanghua had given birth to a son for him, and the former concubine Rong was pregnant. Now all she had to do was wait for Fourth Miss Xie to come of age and marry into Prince Shun's mansion as a concubine.
The fifth prince was flanked by a chief prince and three concubines.
"Miss Bai San from Baihua County has been betrothed by Concubine Yuan to the Second Prince as a concubine. The Second Prince has taken a fancy to Miss Cui from our mansion and intends to take her as his concubine."
The trajectory of the previous life is still repeating itself.
Bai Ruizhu will still marry the second prince, and Chunxiao will still stay by his side and become one of the women in his harem.
Su Zhen asked, "Did my aunt agree?"
"The Third Madam truly loves Miss Cui and has not agreed. Miss Cui said that as long as the Second Prince agrees to her marriage and she can perform on stage after the marriage, she can marry him."
Chunxiao sings Kunqu opera. She was a famous Huangmei opera singer in the past. Now she sings the role of a Huadan in Kunqu opera. She is also a famous actress. Chunxiao is very famous in Yueyang and Jiangnan areas.
"Prepare a 1 foot 2 inch gemstone glass mirror or coral glass mirror for Miss Bai and Miss Xie Si. Prepare a makeup mirror box for Chunxiao, and let Chunxiao choose the style."
Girls younger than her are all getting married.
Su Zhen felt a little lonely.
After Chunjiang and Xiaoluo left, she began to read the letters one by one.
Princess Rongning asked about the latest developments at Baixian Manor.
Princess Changle mentioned that the farmer in Baixianzhuang who was good at raising chickens and ducks was named Liu, and there was also a famous craftsman named Liu in the workshop. These two families were the remnants of the Liu family in Luoyang, and she hoped that Su Zhen could hand them over to her.
Su Zhen certainly knew their surnames, but one of them was from Jinyang and the other from Bashu, and they had nothing to do with the Liu family of Luoyang.
Bai Ruizhu wrote to say that she was going to marry into the Shunwang Mansion, and her elders were preparing a dowry for her in the capital. She missed the time when she met Jiaxing in Baihua County, and wanted to ask for a calligraphy work by Su Zhen.
Xie Si Niang was about to get married, and like Bai Ruizhu, she also asked for a calligraphy work.
Su Zhen picked up the inkstone and wrote a reply to Princess Rongning, telling her about her future plans. She wanted to build a sea ship that could travel thousands of miles, so that people from all directions could come to congratulate Da Qi and hundreds of countries could come to pay tribute. She knew that in the depths of the distant South China Sea there were the Liuli Kingdom and the Fuso Kingdom, and there were other countries even further away.
She wrote back to Princess Changle, saying that the two Liu families had nothing to do with the Luoyang Liu family, and explained their ancestral hometowns in detail, saying that the claim that these two people were from the Luoyang Liu family was just a rumor.
She wrote a calligraphy piece for Bai Ruizhu, on which was a poem: "The clouds look like clothes and the flowers look like face; the spring breeze blows on the threshold and the dew is thick. If we had not met on the top of the Jade Mountain, we would have met under the moon on the Jade Terrace." It was signed "Su Wenjiang presents to Bai Ruizhu". On the side of the poem, there was a painting of a beautiful white peony. In her eyes, Bai Ruizhu was as holy and noble as the white peony in the painting.
It took her half a day to reply to everyone's letters.
I wrote a big "Fu" character for Xie Si Niang, with the big "Fu" in the middle and a small "Fu" character in the shape of a petal on each of the four corners.
Chunmei received the letter and asked someone to mail the letter and the calligraphy and painting out.
Su Zhen smiled helplessly.
Chun Jiang asked, "Is there anything that makes you happy, Princess?"
"A friend wrote to me, Princess Rongning asked about Baixian Manor; Princess Changle said that the chicken and duck farmers Liu family and the craftsman Master Liu were the remnants of the Liu family in Luoyang."
Xiao Luo frowned, "Princess, neither of their families are from Luoyang. I remember that the Liu family spoke with a genuine Shanxi accent. Aunt Liu always spoke in her hometown dialect, which made me feel uncomfortable. Master Liu's Sichuan dialect is actually quite interesting. He also knows how to joke and tease."
Chun Jiang looked worried, "Princess, will everything be alright?"
Why did Princess Changle inquire about these two Liu families?
But they all have the surname Liu and have nothing to do with the Liu family of Luoyang.
"Maybe it's a misunderstanding, just explain it clearly."
Su Zhen didn't take it to heart.
Princess Changle married Wang Heng. The Wang family and the Liu family had a life-and-death feud. The Liu family colluded with green forest bandits, competed with the Wang family for territory and business, and wiped out the Wang family. However, some people escaped the disaster. Wang Heng was one of the survivors of the Wang family in Luoyang, and he was determined to avenge his clan.
But after the Liu family started a killing spree, they caused chaos in Luoyang and disappeared without a trace. Some said they split into several groups and hid themselves, while others said they were killed by their enemies.
Su Zhen ordered Chunjiang and Xiaoluo to prepare a bunch of dry food and food. After three days, they returned to the iron workshop.
She had a separate blacksmithing room in the blacksmith workshop, which was equipped with the best charcoal, the finest blacksmithing tools, iron furnace, etc.
The iron workshop not only knows how to forge iron, but also how to make special tires for cars, which are injected with air using an air gun designed by Su Zhen. After learning how to make tires with cowhide and sheepskin from Su Zhen, the problem of tires was greatly improved.
Su Zhen selected materials that could be used to refine magical weapons and spiritual weapons from the warehouse, and sent all that could be used to her own blacksmith room. Next, she wanted to refine a puppet, but her eyes fell on saltpeter.
He took out the "Eastern Continent Weapon Art" and turned to the page on refining a substitute puppet. As long as he had a substitute puppet, it was equivalent to having an extra life. He needed a sixth-level monster skin and some monster bones...
Su Zhen prepared the materials and then refined them according to the instructions above. She used monster skin as the skin and monster bones as the skeleton. She could also fill it with spiritual wood, but there was no spiritual wood in the warehouse, so she could only use hundred-year-old peach wood instead.
The first substitute puppet failed!
After it merged into her blood, there was no reaction.
Su Zhen refined a second substitute puppet. After being soaked in blood and hair, the puppet moved.
It just moved for a moment and then it seemed to spontaneously combust. A burning smell wafted away and then it returned to its original state.
When Su Zhen was hungry, he would eat some snacks and drink a bowl of fruit wine. When he was tired, he would sit cross-legged and regulate his breathing.
The puppet failed again. She didn't plan to refine it again until she found the reason for the failure.
