Chapter 198 Tailoring

The next morning, Chu Qinghuang just got up and heard Jinlan report that someone had come to the palace, saying that the Queen had sent someone to tailor clothes for His Highness and several servants.

"Tailoring clothes?"

"Yes."

Chu Qinghuang thought of the few people in the West Courtyard who were dressed better than the rich and powerful, and said in a light tone: "Send someone over."

"Yes."

Not long after, the Changchun Palace nanny brought people from the Shangyi Bureau to the East Upper Pavilion. There were seven or eight people in the group, and the specifications were not small.

Everyone saluted according to the rules and said respectfully: "The Queen sympathizes with Her Highness the Princess's recent hard work for the country, and ordered this old servant to tailor a few new clothes for Her Highness the Princess."

Chu Qinghuang hummed without emotion: "Come in."

Everyone entered the palace one by one.

Chu Qinghuang cooperated and stood while they measured her. After all, the palace paid for it, who would complain that they had too many clothes?

As for the Queen's intention of actively showing goodwill, she knew it very well. This was just the first step of winning over, and the winning over could not be too obvious, otherwise it would easily cause the king's displeasure.

"Your Highness." Nanny Gu said respectfully, "The Emperor means that he wants to make a few for those in your backyard. Please ask the Princess to call all the young masters over. We will measure them together and report back."

Chu Qinghuang said calmly, "I have sent someone to call them. They will be here soon."

"Yes."

"Fu Cang." Chu Qinghuang turned around and walked to the brocade couch and sat down, speaking calmly.

"Yes."

"Stand over there and let them measure you."

When Nanny Gu heard this, her eyes instantly fell on Fu Cang's face and she subconsciously began to look at him.

The boy, about 17 or 18 years old, was handsome, with a good figure, a slender body, and a strong power hidden in his body... Nanny Gu was an old lady in the palace. She had seen countless people of all kinds over the years. The boy in front of her definitely did not look like an ordinary person, but a rare master.

And judging from his expression at this moment, he was definitely not a servant in the backyard.

Or, the princess was tired of those weak and beautiful young men recently, and forced a master to be her male lover?

At this time, Fu Cang, who was forced to stretch his arms in the palace and was being touched by a group of strangers, stood stiffly, resisting the urge to kill someone with a palm. His restrained expression did look like he was forcing a good woman into prostitution.

So Nanny Gu was more certain of her judgment, but she didn't dare to say anything, she just said to Chu Qinghuang: "Your Highness, can you make two robes for this young master?"

"Four sets." Chu Qinghuang said, "Make two sets of black satin, with some dark bamboo patterns embroidered on the cuffs and hems, and two sets of dark red. Make two black and two white inner garments, all made of satin; and make four pairs of boots for him, with the colors and styles matching the robes."

Nanny Gu listened respectfully and wrote down everything she said.

The Queen had explained before coming here that she was not afraid of how many requests Her Highness the Princess made, but she was afraid that she would refuse. As long as she was willing to accept the Queen's kindness, it would be easier to win her over in the future.

"Your Highness, I'm here!"

The lively voice of the young man suddenly sounded, and then Hongyu, who was wearing a blue cloth shirt, jumped in. Seeing so many people in the hall, he seemed to be startled, and quickly retracted his feet that had already stepped in. He carefully searched around, and when he saw Chu Qinghuang sitting in front of the couch, he slowly walked in.

"See Her Highness the Princess." Hongyu bowed deeply, "I wonder why Her Highness asked me to come here?"

Chu Qinghuang looked at his blue shirt that had been washed white, and wanted to know where he got this clothes from, "Where are the others?"

"Mr. Wen is reviewing his lessons, and Mr. Qi went to the military camp." Hongyu was very obedient and answered every question, "Mr. Chu and Mr. Shen went out."

"So you and Wen Zhan are the only two people left in the West Courtyard?"

"Yes."

Gu Ma listened to their conversation and was slightly shocked. One went to the military camp, and two went out? These servants in the backyard of Her Highness the Princess are so free?

Do they not know a little bit of rules, or is the Princess too indulgent to them?

"The Queen wants to make clothes for you. Go over there and stand there, and let them measure you."

"Clothes?" Hongyu turned to look at the people from the palace and coughed lightly, "This young master likes red, and the style should be more elegant, so that you can feel like a banished immortal when wearing it..."

"The banished immortal in red?" Chu Qinghuang raised her eyebrows and poured a basin of cold water slowly, "The red one should be a demon."

Hongyu felt wronged: "Is there a demon as beautiful as her?"

Madam Gu had a complicated expression.

Is this how Her Royal Highness the Princess gets along with the servant in the backyard?

"Anyway, whether it's a demon or a banished immortal, I want red ones, the more elegant the better." Hong Yu raised his arms, "Come on, measure me, make more sets, use better materials, and if you can give me a few sets of fine jade pendants, it would be even better."

Madam Gu frowned slightly, wanting to tell him that a servant shouldn't have so many requirements, and the fine materials and jade pendants are standard for princes and nobles, and a mere servant is not qualified to be so demanding.

But the princess didn't say anything, so Madam Gu didn't say anything either.

She was different from the two maids around Concubine Duan, and she would never make enemies for her master outside. Even if the ignorant boy in front of her kept crossing the line, she shouldn't teach him a lesson.

"Your Highness the Princess." She turned to look at Chu Qinghuang, "When will the other young masters come back?"

"They are not short of clothes, so don't pay attention to them." Chu Qinghuang said, "Just make them for Fucang and Hongyu."

"yes."

She would do whatever Her Royal Highness the Princess said and would never refute a word.
