The goal has been achieved. Su Yunyan naturally said goodbye to the young lady of Duke Ji. Her next target is the palace!
Nowadays, in the court, the young emperor suppresses Grand Master Tong and beats him. In the harem, Concubine Tong is not as favored as before, but instead competes with the empress.
So when entering the palace this time, Su Yunyan did not intend to find Concubine Tong and the Queen, but directly found the Queen Mother.
The Empress Dowager and A Niang once had a relationship. Regardless of whether this relationship is reliable now, at least it can give them some face.
Su Yunyan does not need the Queen Mother to advocate for essential oils and perfumes. As long as the Queen Mother is willing to accept these two things, it will be considered a success!
As soon as he entered the palace, Su Yunyan noticed the exquisitely carved Yunlong stone tiles laid on the ground. These tiles were expensive to make.
In a corner of the palace, there are jasper screens erected one after another. The screens are carved with scenes of flowers blooming. The petals are layered on top of each other, as if you can smell the faint fragrance, adding a bit of spring to the palace.
Su Yunyan saluted the Queen Mother respectfully: "The commoner girl Su Yunyan pays homage to the Queen Mother!"
"Get up quickly! Your mother-in-law hides you like a precious egg. It's not often. Bringing you into the palace to have a look makes you so unfamiliar with the Ai family."
Like a kind old lady, the Queen Mother asked Su Yunyan to stand up and sit down on her right side.
She took a look at the gift Su Yunyan brought to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother smiled and said: "It's rare that you are thoughtful enough to remember to bring gifts to the Ai family! But your aunt, that little heartless one, has been going to Yunzhou for several years and has never thought of bringing a gift to the Ai family. "Letter."
Su Yunyan complained in her heart that she didn't see the Queen Mother giving any rewards to Aniang and the Marquis during the holidays!
But on the surface, Su Yunyan was like a bewildered child, hemming and hawing.
Seeing Su Yunyan like this, the Queen Mother was slightly relieved.
It was enough to have Gu Nanxi in the Yongchang Marquis Mansion. Seeing that Su Xuanming had the talent to be the top scholar, the young emperor became more and more afraid.
Fortunately, Su Erlang wanted to run away to sea, and Miss Su was not as smart and capable as the rumors said.
The Queen Mother waved her hand, and the maids took the box of gifts brought by Su Yunyan to the warehouse.
"Yunyan, I have watched your mother-in-law grow up. In my heart, your mother-in-law is like my sister. Your mother-in-law also watched the current emperor grow up. This relationship is not Relatives are better than relatives. It's normal for relatives to have some conflicts. Your mother is older than the Emperor, so don't argue with him!"
Su Yunyan nodded ignorantly: "Your Majesty, you are right."< br>
The Queen Mother chatted with Su Yunyan for a few more words, and then asked Su Yunyan to withdraw.
As soon as he left the palace, Su Yunyan threw what the Queen Mother said behind him.
I will not tell my mother-in-law these words and cause her troubles!
Su Yunyan didn’t know what was going on between A Niang and the late Empress Dowager.
But Su Yunyan knew that the Queen Mother wanted to use her affection to manipulate her!
Humph, when the emperor was afraid of my mother-in-law, why didn't he show affection? Now I want my mother-in-law to talk about love! Where in the world can such a good thing happen? !
Not only did Su Yunyan not intend to tell this to her mother-in-law, she also wanted to use her status as the Queen Mother to raise the quality of essential oils and perfumes!
In just three days, the entire Kyoto ladies circle knew about the existence of rose essential oil and perfume!
Spring is just around the corner, and Mrs. Taishi Tong has posted widely, inviting ladies from Kyoto to go on a cruise on the Bian River.
Seven or eight ships of different sizes were prepared for this banquet. Those who like the excitement can take a big boat, and those who like quiet can take a small boat.
The boat sails along the winding waterway, and guests can enjoy the scenery of the lake, mountains and flowers on the shore.
As the saying goes, a starved camel is bigger than a horse. No matter how suppressed by the emperor, Taishi Tong was still a veteran of the three dynasties. No one dared to offend him, below one person and above ten thousand people.
Therefore, the ladies who received the post all dressed up to attend.
Among the many noble ladies vying for beauty, the young lady of the Duke of Ji State stands out with her rich rose fragrance.
“Is this the essential oil that Mrs. Su gave you?” Mrs. Cheng Guoguang asked curiously.
Mrs. Ji Guogong nodded reservedly: "It's rose essential oil! Madam Su only gave me two bottles, one of essential oil and one of perfume. I was reluctant to use it in the past, and only in such a big situation would I be willing to drop it. Take a drop or two!”
As soon as he finished speaking, colorful butterflies flew from nowhere and danced around Mr. Ji Guo’s wife.
Such a scene made other guests on the ship look over.
“Oh, this is such a good thing, it can actually attract bees and butterflies!”
The young lady of Ji Guogong covered her mouth and said with a smile: “It’s good to attract butterflies, but thousands of Don’t attract bees, I’m afraid of getting stung.”
This self-deprecation removed the faint sour smell on board.
A lady said with envy: "I heard that Mrs. Su only gave this essential oil to you and the Queen Mother."
Others talked to her: "I also heard that the Queen Mother didn't have it originally. Take this essential oil and perfume to heart Later, Zhaoyi was rewarded casually. Zhaoyi used the essential oil to steal the emperor away from Concubine Tong!"
"Oh, isn't Concubine Tong so angry? "The ladies winked at each other.
The relationship between Concubine Tong and the Queen was not harmonious. It was very rare for the Queen Mother to waver between the two daughters-in-law!
This is great, another Zhaoyi appears!
"No, I heard that Concubine Tong made trouble in the Queen Mother's Palace. The Queen Mother gave her half of the sesame oil and perfume, and she was able to calm down. The next day, the Queen who received the letter ran away again Went too In the harem, the queen mother gave the remaining half to the queen, and then the matter was settled."
Some older ladies curled their lips in disdain, thinking that the mother-in-law looked like the queen mother. There is no one left!
If this were an ordinary old lady, wouldn’t she be killed by crickets from her neighbors? How could he be manipulated like this by his daughter-in-law and his son's concubine? !
But ultimately, the son is still unfilial! If the son is a good man, he can naturally set up the backyard, and there is no need for the mother-in-law to help put out the fire.
As soon as the topic came up, the ladies' hearts became even more itchy.
It can cut off the emperor's beard, make Concubine Tong and the Queen fight, and make the always generous Lady Su only give it to two people. How good are these rose essential oils and perfumes? !
Some people couldn't hold it back and asked, "Mrs. Song, did you say when will this essential oil be sold? What is the price?"
Mrs. Ji Guogong finally said Wait until someone else asks: "Ms. Su said that these essential oils and perfumes are not sold outside. They are only used as a thank you gift to repay everyone's support for Yunzhou."
We are all foxes who have practiced for thousands of years, who can Can't you hear what this means?
How to support? Either provide financial support, or provide some support in other ways.
The ladies from each family looked at each other, then looked away, knowing it all. (End of this chapter)
