After Chen Yue left the Xue Mansion, he took a carriage and rushed to somewhere in the capital. Accompanying the carriage was Bi Hu and several other personal guards. They were all wearing casual clothes without armor. The Northern Liang Dao never left his body.

Four or five tall Beiliang horses attracted the attention of the people on the street. Such big horses are rare in the capital. Only those who know the goods can recognize that these horses are from Beiliang.

Many people were secretly muttering to themselves who was riding in this carriage. Someone who could own such a good horse must not be an ordinary person.

As the car drove slowly, there were fewer and fewer people on the road, because the place Chen Yue wanted to go was the royal official office, so it was naturally difficult for ordinary people to get close to it.

The carriage finally stopped outside a magnificent courtyard wall. On the plaque at the door were written the words "Weaving Department."

This weaving department is different from the small weaving departments in other state capitals. It is exclusively used by the royal family. The weaver girls and embroiderers in the weaving department are all people with outstanding skills recruited from all over the country.

Chenyue leaned out of the carriage, with a hint of surprise in his eyes: "As expected of the royal family, it's really majestic!"

An official who had been waiting at the door for a long time trotted over and asked respectfully: "Excuse me, are you Mr. Chenhou?"

Chenyue smiled and nodded: "I've been waiting for a long time."

"Don't you dare? I'm going to be the Superintendent of the Weaving Department in the capital, Zhan Lingxiu, Lord Marquis, please!" The person in charge of the Weaving Department, who was in the fifth rank, turned sideways and made way for Chen Yue.

Compared with the various ministers he had been in contact with, Zhan Lingxiu was a serious official in front of Chen Yue. However, Chen Yue still had no airs at all and followed Zhan Lingxiu towards the Weaving Department with a smile.

Chen Yue was originally supposed to be led here by an official from the Ministry of Rites, but Chen Yue came by himself because he wanted to visit Xue Chengyi. As the supervisor of the Weaving Department, Zhan Lingxiu was afraid that his servants would neglect the Marquis of Beiliang, so he stood at the door in person.

Wait.

Firstly, I heard that although the Marquis of Beiliang was young, he was a ruthless man who killed many people, so he could not be offended. Secondly, Zhan Lingxiu also wanted to see the Marquis of Beiliang as soon as possible.

The two of them walked around the Weaving Department and saw many embroidery girls busy along the way. The needles and threads in their hands were fast and the looms were creaking. Many people were excited when they saw the supervisor bending down to guide people.

Curiously, they looked at Chenyue twice. These young women had received the news that the Marquis of Beiliang was going to visit the Weaving Department in person today.

Chenyue looked at the busy Weaving Department and asked in surprise: "Director Zhan, is the Weaving Department in the capital very busy?"

"What the Marquis doesn't know is that the Weaving Department in the capital is divided into two departments: the inner department is responsible for royal clothing, as well as the official uniforms of ministers of the third rank and above, and the outer department is mainly responsible for weaving official uniforms for officials of other ranks, and for their participation in certain events.

The attire used in these ceremonies has different divisions of labor and different functions, and the trivial matters are particularly complicated. What the Marquis sees now is the outer department, and the inner department is still inside." Zhan Lingxiu answered in great detail, for fear of causing Chen Yue's dissatisfaction.

"I see, Master Zhan's burden is not light, haha." Chen Yue praised a few words with a smile on his face.

Zhan Lingxiu breathed a sigh of relief and continued to lead the way.

Finally, the two came to an extremely luxurious place. The colorful brocade almost blinded Chen Yue.

"Take them all out!" Zhan Lingxiu clapped her hands.

I saw more than ten beautiful maids filing out, each carrying a shelf. On the shelf were robes of various colors, all embroidered with big pythons, interspersed with gold and silver threads, very domineering.

"Is this the king's robe?" Chenyue was also surprised by the gorgeous clothes. He stretched out his hand to touch the jade embroidery on these brocade clothes. The light and snowy touch made him feel very comfortable.

In the past, Chenyue would occasionally wear the official uniform he had been a first-grade military envoy. At that time, he thought it was already fine silk and satin, but now he realized that it was nothing compared to the royal robe.

"Master Marquis, these are just samples. The real royal robe needs to be made again after the official measures the body of the Marquis." Zhan Lingxiu rubbed her hands in embarrassment: "The Ministry of Rites only has time for us.

It’s been twenty days, it’s very urgent, so Mr. Hou has to decide on the size, style and color today.”

Chenyue smiled and said: "Okay, then Master Lao Zhan can tell me first."

Seeing that Chen Yue had no dissatisfaction, Zhan Lingxiu explained happily: "According to the ancestral system of our dynasty, His Majesty wears a dragon robe, and the vassal king wears a python robe, which is divided into two types: the nine-python king's robe and the six-python king's robe. The royal family

The vassal king wears nine pythons, and the vassal prince with a different surname wears six pythons, so the ones I brought out to the Marquis this time are all six python patterns. As for the color, the Marquis can choose any color except golden yellow."

"That's it." Chen Yue nodded slightly, while constantly looking at the colorful python robes in front of him.

Light yellow, dark red, black, and bright blue, one by one, passed in front of Chen Yue, but Chen Yue's brows were slightly wrinkled, and he seemed not satisfied with any of them.

Zhan Lingxiu saw that Chenyue was in trouble and hurriedly said: "According to the records of the Weaving Department, the vassals of our dynasty chose light yellow and dark red the most. Although light yellow is not as good as the golden yellow of the dragon robe, it is also very noble. The dark red looks

When you stand up, you are very powerful and worthy of the status of a vassal king."

Chen Yue nodded while listening. Finally, a touch of black made Chen Yue's eyes light up.

"This is good." Chenyue murmured softly.

Zhan Lingxiu's eyes paused. The one that Chen Yue was interested in was the black and gold six python king's robe. The main color was black, with gold threads embroidering the python pattern. The black and gold color seemed less dazzling than other colors.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Chenyue looked at Zhan Lingxiu who was a little stunned and asked.

"I'm rude to you, please forgive me. But no one has ever chosen this black gold python robe in so many years, so I was stunned for a moment." Zhan Lingxiu hurriedly bent down and said.

In fact, there is another sentence that Zhan Lingxiu did not say. This black color is no better than other colors. It is quite difficult to control. Most people wearing black and gold python robes will look nondescript. To put it bluntly, they will be ugly.

But how could he dare to say this to Chenyue? After all, the Marquis of Beiliang is also an ordinary person?

"Haha, let's try it first, okay?" Chen Yue waved with a smile, signaling Zhan Lingxiu not to be nervous.

"Okay! Hurry and wait for the Marquis to change his clothes!" Zhan Lingxiu waved her hand, and several beautiful maids immediately came forward and started to change clothes.

After a while, Chen Yue, wearing a black gold python robe, stood in front of everyone, and a bronze mirror taller than a person was also carried out.

Zhan Lingxiu and all the maids were all stunned. As soon as the python robe was put on his body, the Marquis of Beiliang's whole aura changed.

The black color makes him look more calm and majestic, and the fierceness and ferocity that Chen Yue has honed on the battlefield make him more sharp-edged in the python robe, making him a real king.

The eyes of many young maids were shining with unconcealable admiration.

Chen Yue turned left and right in front of the mirror, and after a moment he laughed loudly:
Chapter completed!
