Chapter 255 The envoy is rude

Gu Hanqian's face turned cold, and he was about to stand up and speak, but was stopped by Ji Fuyin from under the table.

Ji Fuyin looked at the envoy with a smile, "Special Envoy, I have already put on my most solemn attire. I wonder why the Special Envoy thinks there is something wrong with what I am wearing?"

"Miss Ji Er's outfit is already the most grand?" The thick-browed envoy suddenly smiled, and his posture when he spoke seemed to be extremely humble, but in fact it was full of ridicule, "But I feel that Ji

The second young lady seems to be disrespecting us by doing this."

"The status of all the empresses should be higher than that of Second Miss. As far as I know, the cultural customs of Daye are the same as those of Zhaoming. The stronger the color, the more festive it is. But Miss Ji is single today.

"Dan, among all the empresses, she is really eye-catching."

"And...if I'm not mistaken, a color like this, which is almost plain, is only worn when attending funerals, whether in Daye or Zhaoming. Isn't it true that the second lady is wearing this?

Do you look down on me, Zhao Ming?"

After saying this, the envoy bowed his hands to the emperor again, "And this is also a great disrespect to the emperor. How should Miss Ji Er explain it?"

As expected, the emperor's face was a little uneasy. The land was vast and the materials were abundant. As the future crown princess, how could she not even have a grand and gorgeous outfit? What's more, what Ji Fuyin was wearing today was indeed dull.

point.

Although it is true that a woman should be pretty and filial, but on today's occasion, what she was wearing was really inappropriate for her status. She was almost entirely in plain white clothes, with only a palm width at the neckline.

There is a blue and white porcelain pattern embroidery, and the same pattern is also embroidered on the cuffs, which is indeed simple and elegant to the extreme.

Although the clothes on her body were as warm and bright as the moonlight, but if you insist on taking it seriously, what the envoy said is not wrong.

After the envoy finished speaking, everyone's eyes were fixed on Ji Fuyin, including the eyes of many concubines in the harem who were gloating about the misfortune and waiting to see the joke.

Ji Fuyin, however, sat firmly in her seat and calmly rolled up her sleeves, "It turns out that the special envoy doesn't recognize these clothes. Why, doesn't Zhaoming not have this kind of fabric?"

As soon as these words came out, not only the envoy's face showed a suspicious look, but also the faces of the concubines in Daye's harem showed a trace of confusion.

No matter how you look at it, Ji Fuyin is wearing a very simple piece of clothing. Although the white color looks as smooth as jade, except for the special color, no one else can see anything. Only the Queen Mother is squinting.

After looking at the clothes for a long time, a look of surprise and surprise suddenly appeared on his face.

"It seems that the special envoy is indeed ignorant. I sincerely ask the emperor to let me explain to the special envoy. As a century-old ally, how can Zhaoming not know the most precious clothing material for our great cause?"

Ji Fuyin attended the ceremony slowly and bowed to the emperor. The emperor's eyes turned slightly to the queen, as if asking for her opinion. He had been the emperor of Daye all his life, and he had never heard of anything unique to Daye that he cherished the most.

of clothing material.

"Emperor, I also feel that Envoy Zhaoming is a bit rude this time. Although I don't know what Miss Ji Er is going to do, I might as well let her give it a try. It doesn't matter if it can dampen the opponent's arrogance.

"Empress Sun moved her lips slightly and whispered.

After hearing this, the emperor nodded to Ji Fuyin, "Okay, then it's up to you to explain it to Envoy Zhaoming."

"Yes." Ji Fuyin stood up and faced the envoy, "Special envoy, the name of this material is Yue Zhu Yue Hua. It is completely white and has a warm color. It feels like it is made of the softest mist. Its biggest feature is

, it can only be worn on moonlit nights."

The envoy laughed a few times and said, "Would you like to pursue the moonlight? It's just that the name is nicer and the ingredients are more detailed. I thought there was some gimmick in it."

Ji Fuyin smiled and said nothing. She walked to the open space in the middle near the palace door. Suddenly she raised her hand and patted it hard twice. In an instant, all the candlelight in the hall was extinguished, leaving only the gauze-like moonlight softly.

Sprinkle.

Just when all the lights were extinguished, a clear sound of silk and bamboo sounded, and the music was clear and graceful. In the midst of this music that was like the sound of nature, she bowed to everyone, twirled her body, and danced gracefully.

Low gasps resounded in the hall one after another. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Ji Fuyin, not because of her mediocre dancing skills, but because at this moment, she was exuding a trace of aura all over her body.

Soft, like the gentle fluorescence of moonlight. The wide sleeves dance with the music, and when they pass through the air, they are like a condensed moonlight.

Set against this warm luster, Ji Fuyin, dancing in the music, is like a young fairy from the Guanghan Palace. She is noble and elegant, without any trace of worldliness, and her beauty makes people feel breathtaking and suffocating.

But he didn't dare to get any closer for fear of blaspheming this holy fairy.

Not only did the faces of several envoys change color, but even Empress Sun and others could not help but have expressions of astonishment on their faces.

They have seen many expensive clothing materials, but they have never seen clothes that radiate soft light under the moonlight.

The song ended and the music disappeared. The lights in the hall returned to bright lights. Ji Fuyin bowed to the emperor and said, "My maid has shown her disgrace, but if she doesn't do this, the special envoy may not be able to truly appreciate this dress."

Subtlety."

"Okay, okay." The emperor was stunned for a moment, and then he responded, "You are really good at dancing. Please pass on my will and you will be rewarded with two jade as you wish!"

After thanking the emperor, Ji Fuyin said to the envoy: "This piece of clothing called Yue Zhu Yue Hua is one of the most wonderful treasures of my great cause since ancient times. Every piece of clothing made of Yue Zhu Yue Hua has to be consumed.

It took all the silk of nine hundred and ninety-nine white jade ice silkworms to create this dazzling effect."

"As for what ice silkworms are, I guess I don't need to explain to the special envoy." Ji Fuyin smiled slightly. After dancing just now, there was still a trace of blush on her face, which made her look even more cute and cute.

"This is impossible! Ice silkworms are not only expensive, but also extremely hard to find. Even if you buy them from the exotic land of Nantian where ice silkworms are abundant, the price of one ice silkworm egg is enough to be worth a city with a thousand people. Nine hundred

Ninety-nine ice silkworms, how is that possible?!"

The envoy was a little confused at first, but after hearing Ji Fuyin's words, his face was full of disbelief, and he retorted without hesitation.

"Is this impossible? Our Daye is vast and rich in resources. The amount of silver converted from the harvest of crops sold to other countries every year is already an extremely astronomical amount. What's more, Daye is also rich in pottery, silk and jade.

There are probably not many countries that can match the level of wealth. It’s just a few ice silkworms, so what’s the problem?”

"Why does the special envoy look a little surprised? This dress made of ice silk is not a rare thing. Except for me, almost every concubine in Daye's harem has one. I just don't know why. Today, except for me,

No one came to wear it."

When speaking of this, Ji Fuyin, who had already sat back in her seat, gave Gu Hanqian a low wink. Gu Hanqian understood immediately and said, "I have always advocated restraint and peace in my career. Fuyin, this time it's your fault."

It’s too exaggerated.”

"Yes, I just wanted to attend in a solemn way, but I neglected this point. Important things do not have to be superficial. This would make me look superficial." Ji Fuyin smiled and said modestly.

"You ladies have thought of everything, lest the special envoys feel that the gifts you sent are not thoughtful enough. After bringing them all, although they are too gaudy, they are sincere enough. On the contrary, I am just

It's really superficial to try to measure it by value. I think the special envoys should blame me, right?"

When Ji Fuyin said this sentence with a smile, the expressions of the envoys and the coquettish concubines suddenly changed.

What she meant implicitly was that Daye's concubines did not like the jewelry sent by Zhaoming, and they only brought it with them to show Daye's tolerance and hospitality. In fact, the jewelry they sent implicitly

Things that are meant to be a demonstration will not be noticed at all in Daye, and they will not have any deterrent effect.

The envoy's expression changed again and again, and he managed to squeeze out a smile, "How could you blame me? Miss Ji Er has such a serious intention, so naturally we will not blame you."

After saying that, the envoy raised his glass to the emperor as if he was trying to hide from something, "The great cause and national strength are really strong. I am so impressed. I will wait for you to come and offer your Majesty a glass of wine!"

Just a piece of clothing saved the day. The emperor was naturally in a good mood and raised his glass happily.

The other concubines looked at each other while they were toasting, and their faces became even more ugly at this sight.

Previously, in order to show that Zhaoming's national power was already unparalleled, Zhaoming's emperors sent envoys to bring many more jewelry than before. However, once the number of these jewelry increased, the styles would inevitably be similar or simply different.

Pretty much the same situation.

Although each of these people is wearing a colorful head and hands, when they sit together like this and look at each other, they all have similar things, which makes them look more and more ordinary.

It was a good thing that Ji Fuyin didn't say that vulgar sentence. Once she said it, and the people around her were indeed wearing similar clothes, the concubines began to feel a little uncontrollable and disgusted with these things sent by Zhao Ming.
