Chapter 559 Empty

Sun Jin hurried to the lobby of the former government. Liu Jin, Gao Feng and Wei Bin were looking at the slightly messy pile of clothes on the long case. Sun Jin hurried forward to see the salute. Xiao Shang's clothing supervisor was usually full of the door. Before today, a princess came, and then there were big figures in the inner court such as the seal of the ceremonial supervisor, which made Sun Jin feel quite Panic.

"Sun Jin, what are you doing in this mess?" Liu Jin pointed to a messy pile of clothes and asked.

"In the words of Eunuch Liu, Her Royal Highness Princess Corning personally came to choose the clothes and colors. I just felt not satisfied and continued to choose in the old library. Our family was just accompanying the waiter and failed to greet several father-in-law in person. I hope you can forgive me."

"Her Royal Highness?" Liu Jin looked at the people around her doubtfully.

"Yes, I'm afraid my father-in-law doesn't know yet. The Empress Dowager ordered someone to send a message that Her Royal Highness is going to choose a son-in-law to marry, so she needs to prepare clothes, cloth and other things to marry."

"So it is." Liu Jin suddenly realized that as the first person in the inner court, and then realized that he was a little uncomfortable, but at present, he is not in the mood to care about these things. This is for a different purpose.

"Grandpa, recently, the palace has not been very safe. There have been several cases of theft in the Qianqing Palace recently. The emperor is very angry, so our family took the lead and led several father-in-law to inspect and rectify the prisons in the palace from now on. Today, it is also a business in your Shangyi prison. Is everything okay in Shangyi prison?"

Sun Jin hurriedly said, "To my father-in-law, all the people in Shangyi prison are obedient. For so many years, there has been no theft in Shangyi prison. Please check it clearly."

Liu Jin waved his hand and said, "We believe you. The reason why our family came here first is that you are still in charge of the emperor's clothes. If you make a mistake, everyone will not be able to carry it."

Sun Jin said, "What my father-in-law said is that my father-in-law can rest assured that I am in charge of the emperor's clothes, and the usual ironing, cleaning and going in and out are also under my supervision, and I dare not neglect them at all. Grandpa Liu can follow me to take a look at the storage place, and he will know that it is perfect.

Liu Jin nodded and said, "Well, let's see."

Sun Jin led the way. Several people came down from the back door of the former government building and pushed the door in front of a room on the east side of the yard. The three eunuchs were busy working on a chopping board. A bright yellow inner shirt was spread on the chopping board. The two eunuchs gently pulled back and forth, and an old eunuch was carefully ironing back and forth with a water iron.

"Would you like to salute Duke Liu, Duke Wei and Duke Gao?" Sun Jindao.

The three eunuchs quickly knelt down and saluted. Liu Jin waved her hand and went to the chopping board and asked, "What are you doing?"

Sun Jin hurriedly said, "This is the emperor's inner shirt. After cleaning and drying the fragrant pancreas, it is sent here and ironed eight times, and then spread it on the incense cage for an hour to smoke incense. When the emperor changes his clothes, our family will personally send all the clothes to the Qianqing Palace and hand them over to the father-in-laws who are waiting for the emperor."

Liu Jin nodded and said, "Very good. The emperor's auspicious clothes are not worn very often. I don't know how to keep them? The maintenance of the dragon robe is not careless at all. If it is moldy and worms, it will be a death penalty.

Sun Jin laughed and said, "How can that be? Several father-in-law will come with me."

At this moment, there was a noisy sound at the door of the warehouse, and Sun Jin's voice came faintly: "Has Your Highness not come out yet?"

A little eunuch replied, "It's still inside."

Sun Jin's voice came: "Grandpa Liu, Grandpa Gao, Grandpa Wei, how about we wait a moment?"

"Okay, let's report it first." Liu Jin's sharp voice also sounded.

Kang Ning was stunned and whispered, "Why did Liu Jin come here? Are you aware of our intentions?"

Cui Hongying and Hongyu have earthy faces. They are close female officials of the princess. Naturally, the father-in-law has done these things to help unconditionally, but it does not mean that they don't know what kind of crime it is to steal the dragon robe. If Liu Jin finds out, the princess is naturally nothing, and the two of them are going to lose their lives.

"Your Highness, Eunuch Liu, the ceremonial supervisor, is waiting outside to salute the princess." Sun Jin shouted in with a straight voice.

The trembling voice of Cui Hongying, a female official, came from inside: "The princess knows. Tell Grandpa Liu that there is no need to be courteous and do her own business."

Sun Jin took a look at Liu Jin and saw that Liu Jin's eyebrows were thoughtful. He smiled and said, "Your Highness, I don't know when he will come out. My father-in-law will decide by himself."

Liu Jin tilted her head and asked, "What's in the old warehouse?"

"It's just the old clothes of the empress dowager of the previous dynasty. The princess wanted to see the clothes worn by Princess Longqing in those years, otherwise she would not have entered the old library to choose."

"Is there the emperor's clothes here? Do you have a dragon robe?

"Prince Hui, there is one dragon robe of the previous emperors."

Liu Jin frowned into a Sichuan character and asked in a low voice, "Has it been properly preserved? Is there any loss?

"Where does your father-in-law say? How dare you neglect these old objects? Isn't that looking for death? The clothes left by the ancestors were stored in a separate room and locked. In fact, there are not many. Most of them are buried in the mausoleum with the coffins of the emperors, and a few pieces stored are also kept in a style for the sake of the needlework bureau.

Liu Jin sighed and did not walk. She stood there staring at the door of the warehouse. The eunuchs saw that Liu Jin's expression was not right and did not dare to say more. They bowed their heads and stood on the atmosphere one by one and did not dare to come out. In the silence, they could hear the sound of the warehouse. I don't know how long it took, and finally came the sound of footsteps. A figure flashed at the dark door of the warehouse. Hongyu, a female official, walked in front with a lantern. Princess Corning walked in the middle, and Cui Hongying, a female official, walked at the end with a wooden box in her arms.

"Speaking to the princess." Liu Jin knelt down to salute, but stared at the long wooden box held in Cui Hongying's hand. Gao Feng, Wei Bin, Sun Jin and others also knelt down to salute.

Corning's face was a little red and gasping. He waved his hand and said, "Didn't you say that you don't have to be polite? Grandpa Sun, I like the style selected by Princess Longqing very much, so I will do it according to those styles. I will go and tell the Empress Dowager.

Sun Jin hurriedly said, "As long as the princess is satisfied, the maidservants will wait for the Empress Dowager's decree to do things."

Corning smiled and said, "Okay, I went back to Shouning Palace. Oh, by the way, I picked two spring jackets and took them back to try them on."

As he spoke, Kang Ning stretched out his hand to open the lid of the wooden box in Cui Hongying's hand, and a small rose-red cotton jacket was neatly placed in it.

"I'm happy to see this. I'll take it back and wear it to the Empress Dowager. When I make a new one, I'll send it back and save it for you. Sun Jin, there's no irregularity."

Sun Jin smiled and said, "No, your Highness likes it, but it's all old clothes. After going back, you have to wash and iron them before you can wear them. Otherwise, there will be a little moldy on it. It's better to let the maidservant wash and iron them and send them to Shouning Palace."

Corning smiled and said, "No, there is someone in Shouning Palace who will take care of it. You all get up. You don't have to kneel. It's time for me to leave. After working for a long time, she was a little tired and panicked. Hongying, after going back, she boiled water to serve Bengong to take a shower.

Cui Hongying whispered, "Follow Your Highness's orders."

Kang Ning gathered his scattered hair, looked at Liu Jin, who was kneeling in front of him, and hurried out. Cui Hongying held the wooden box tightly and followed with small steps. Liu Jin, Sunjin and others knelt down and sent them out until they could not see their figures.
