Xia Qianqian was also very curious about the ancient imperial palace.
I wonder if the palace of Xuan Kingdom is as grand and majestic as it looks on TV
"Sister, what does the palace look like?" Xia Yunyun asked.
Xia Qianqian said with a smile: "I haven't been there either, so I don't know. It's probably a hundred times more magnificent than this place!"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Miss Xia, when Xia Ci arrives in Beijing, you will have the opportunity to visit the palace."
"That's impossible! The imperial palace is an important place, how can common people like us enter and exit?" Xia Qianqian thought the shopkeeper was joking.
Anyway, her ambition is to make money by making porcelain.
If I could really sell Xia porcelain to the capital in the future, I would only be able to stand at the foot of the imperial city and look at the high palace walls.
"Miss Xia, don't you know yet?" asked the shopkeeper.
Xia Qianqian was confused: "What?"
"The palace has issued an imperial decree, the emperor wants to build a treasure pavilion for the imperial concubine, and is now collecting rare and fine porcelain from all over the country! Once you are selected, you will not only get a lot of money, but also become famous all over the world!"
Xia Dingfeng's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Oh, this is a great opportunity! Shopkeeper, please tell me, what are the requirements in the imperial edict?"
"As long as it is good porcelain, it can be sent to Beijing for selection." said the shopkeeper.
Xia Dingfeng said to Xia Qianqian happily: "Qianqian, your chance has come! The crackle porcelain you make is exquisite and beautiful, and it will definitely catch the eye of the Imperial Noble Consort! The Imperial Noble Consort is the most favored concubine of the Emperor. Once she is selected, she may even designate Xia porcelain as the exclusive imperial porcelain. Your future is limitless!"
Xia Qianqian was moved.
She still has some unique skills that she hasn't shown yet, and she needs a better platform.
Right now, the cracked porcelain has just been released, but it has caused a stir and led to the destruction of the porcelain kiln. She just slightly affected the porcelain market in Lu'an Prefecture, and that's it. If she made better porcelain, how much more trouble would it cause
If she had the support of the royal family, no one would dare to touch her!
"Quick, go and show me the imperial edict!" Xia Qianqian said.
"good!"
Xia Dingfeng didn't care about the dust and rushed out first to find the imperial edict.
Qin looked at Xia Qianqian with a smile: "Qianqian, this is an opportunity."
"Mom, we are still very lucky. The Imperial Concubine's Treasure Pavilion was built at the perfect time!" Xia Qianqian became more and more excited the more she thought about it, and she was eager to try it.
When there are better conditions, she wants to try colored porcelain!
If her porcelain was chosen by the Royal Concubine, she could refuse the reward and ask the Royal Concubine to appoint an imperial physician to treat Gu Changsheng!
"Sister, when you go to the palace, please take me to see it." Xia Yunyun hugged Xia Qianqian's neck excitedly.
Xia Yu frowned: "Yunyun, stop messing around. The palace is not a place we can go to!"
"Why not? When you become the top scholar in the future, you will go to the palace to meet the emperor." Xia Qianqian said.
Xia Yu said confidently: "Keep your ideals in your heart, and speak them out when you have achieved them. The emperor issued an edict to collect porcelain, so there must be many rivals for you. Being too high-profile can easily lead to disaster."
"Hey, our Yu'er is becoming more and more knowledgeable and understands great principles." Xia Qianqian laughed, "Yu'er, there is one more principle that I will tell you today."
Xia Yu said in a serious tone, "Big sister, please speak."
"Fortune and honor are sought in danger. When you see the right opportunity, you must move forward bravely. Don't be afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind." Xia Qianqian said.
Xia Yu carefully chewed on his elder sister's teachings. After a moment, he suddenly realized: "Elder sister is absolutely right!"
