Chapter 204
After that, some candidates were given B grades one after another, and there were even one or two candidates who finally got A grades.

Candidates also slowly summed up the rules.

It seems that the better the clothing material and the simpler the design, the higher the score.

Some examinees who were too ornately designed became anxious and tried to remove some decorations quietly, but were stopped by the supervisory examiners around them.

Soon, the examiners stopped in front of Feiyan.

"Fox Baiqiu?" Zheng Siyi frowned and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Yes."

Feiyan saluted with all the examiners and began to explain her work.

"It's extremely cold in the north, and there's a lot of ice and snow. As the softest and warmest fur on a fox, fox white can keep you warm and hide your figure. It's most suitable for the general's winter coat."

Zheng Siyi saw that Feiyan had chosen the fox white fur, and his complexion was already pale. Now that he heard her finished speaking, his complexion was even darker, and he was about to speak to her, but Cui Youxiong spoke first.

"Use it for the general? As a young maid of the Department of Clothes, don't you know that only princes and princes in my Dayan can wear fox white fur?"

Although Cui Youxiong's aura is scary, but Feiyan seems to have been prepared for a long time, she still said neither humble nor overbearing: "Returning to my lord, as a young lady of Si Yisi's senior, I am very clear about this.

However, although the general is only the general of the second-rank town, he has a great reputation and is reused by the emperor.

Not long ago, the emperor personally went to the hunting mountain to hunt bears for the general, and gave him an orange top to carry the sedan chair to Beijing. It is not surprising that the general was so favored by the emperor to give him a fox white fur . "

As soon as these words came out, Shui Hanzhou and Tian Yi who stood aside looked at Cui Youxiong one after another. After all, when the emperor gave him a bear-skin bear head and an orange top to carry a sedan chair, he accepted it with great fanfare.

If he gave Hu Baiqiu a first class this time, then he would really be disobedient.

However, Cui Youxiong is not a vegetarian, and a fierce energy suddenly rose from his whole body.

"Very good! No wonder my eyelids are always twitching recently. It's because people like you have been poking my back. I think you are—"

"His heart can be punished" hadn't uttered the words, but Zheng Siyi suddenly stopped Feiyan in front of him, glaring and said: "Nonsense!
As a senior and young lady of the Siyi Department, you don't think about dealing with the palace rules, do your best to maintain the imperial power, assist the emperor and the empress, and only think about how to do what you like and curry favor with the powerful. Why do you set an example for other younger generations? "

After Zheng Siyi finished speaking, his entire back was covered with cold sweat.

To say that she didn't know Cui Youxiong's identity at the beginning, but after hearing what he said just now, and watching his behavior, if she can't guess his identity again, then she will have lived in the palace for 20 years in vain.

She was afraid that if she said something wrong, it would give Cui Youxiong an opportunity to take Feiyan's life.

Seeing that Cui Youxiong hadn't reacted yet, she immediately added another sentence to Feiyan.

"I don't think you need to take the test as a female officer, go back and reflect on yourself!"

After she finished speaking, she led the examiner to the people behind, leaving Feiyan collapsed on the ground alone, crying uncontrollably.

Xu Qingmeng stood not far away and looked at her, feeling very moved in his heart.

When Feiyan wanted to take this piece of fox white fur, she clearly reminded her not to use it.

However, people have their own destiny, some people are not your kindness to persuade her, she will really think you are kindness.

She regretted it in her heart, but Jiang Baoyu directly sighed.

"It's a pity, even if you use Hu Baiqiu, with Sister Feiyan's craftsmanship, you can still get the first class."

Xu Qingmeng looked at Jiang Baoyu, waiting for her to continue.

Jiang Baoyu said: "Since the founding of my country, there has been a precedent for a prince to be the commander in chief. Both the former emperor and the former emperor and prince have such experiences, even the emperor himself, and the world will come immediately.

If Sister Feiyan directly said that she made this winter coat for the prince, she would be able to justify herself. "

Jiang Baoyu sighed again after finishing speaking, and said: "It's a pity that this palace is rich and charming, and it will inevitably cause many people to lose their way. I won’t leave the Yangguan Road in front of me to walk the single-plank bridge.”

Successively, a few people from the Harem Shangfu Bureau and the East Palace Shangfu Bureau have achieved first-class results and have the qualifications to become female officials.

Candidates then summed up one thing.

It turns out that any examinee who wears the soldier's winter clothes can automatically get a grade B or above.

In addition, Shui Hanzhou and that fierce man were probably here to cause trouble, and up to now, they have never played a single first class.

Soon, it was finally Xu Qingmeng's turn to be assessed.

Once her work was unveiled, the examiners were amazed.

Although that work looks like an ordinary long jacket from the outside.

"I remember that the basic material you chose was sheep fur?" Song Siyi from the Harem Fashion Bureau asked curiously.

"Yes."

Xu Qingmeng responded, went forward and unbuttoned the collar of the long jacket, revealing the soft and thick sheep fur inside, and explained to the examiners with a smile: "It's a reverse-skin sheep fur."

As she spoke, she explained to the examiners: "Although sheep fur is warm and cheap, it is not easy to take care of. If the fur is worn outside, it will make the soldiers' armor unsuitable and affect the soldiers' marching." Therefore, at present, soldiers don't want to use sheep fur as material for their winter clothes.

But if the sheep fur is used in reverse, these troubles can be solved, and it can serve multiple purposes. "

The examiners nodded repeatedly, and Liu Siyi from the East Palace Fashion Bureau even reached out and touched Xu Qingmeng's work, which was even more surprising.

"It's so strange! Another reason why I, Dayan, don't use sheep fur as winter clothing for soldiers is that sheepskin tends to harden in the cold, and it's uncomfortable to wear inside, which will affect the actions of soldiers.

But how can your sheep fur be so soft?To put it bluntly, it is even softer than the fox fur used by some candidates just now. "

Xu Qingmeng then explained with a smile: "Returning to your lord, the thinner the leather, the softer and more elastic it will be."

"Of course I know this."

Liu Siyi interrupted Xu Qingmeng, and asked bluntly: "What I want to know is, how did you manage to make the leather so soft and elastic while maintaining such thickness?"

As soon as Liu Siyi said this, the other two Si Yi also took a closer look.

Xu Qingmeng's anti-skin sheep fur really had a certain thickness, which provided a protective barrier for the soldiers on the basis of the armor, which was a very good idea.

When everyone was amazed that Xu Qingmeng had such an ingenious idea, they also began to wonder how she did it.

This was originally a small coup handed down by Xu Qingmeng's ancestors, and it was basically not passed on to the outside world.

But since she has entered the palace and wants to be a female official, there will always be times when she will teach skills to younger generations in the future, so there is no way to hide her secrets.

So she had no choice but to hook her lips, and spoke to everyone about the method...
