Qin Hanzhen just listened to the things in the sect, and learned that the Xiao Huang clan has now lost the power to manage affairs, so he can only worry about the firewood, rice, oil and salt inside the sect, and he has to live under the nose of his mother-in-law Shen every day, and he doesn't have much freedom, and he doesn't run out with a smiling face, and his heart is quite refreshing. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

She didn't know what the Xiao Huang clan had done, but she just felt that with what the other party had done, she was not worthy of continuing to hold power in the clan and show off her might. Now the eldest daughter-in-law of the sect is Feng Shi taking over the clan affairs, although it is Xiao Huang's husband Qin Ke who is the director, but he has the word "generation" on his head, and he has always acted quite safely, but the problem is not big.

Previously, his grandfather Qin Bai once mentioned that Huang Jincheng was worried about Huang Yiqiu's resemblance to Queen Qin, and after Qin Hanzhen made a small suggestion, there was no follow-up to this matter. She also pestered her grandfather to ask about the follow-up, but Qin Bai just sent her away with a smile, which made her feel a little depressed.

However, after such an incident, Qin Hanzhen is now a little interested in makeup, and muttered to Qingxing in private, whether to imitate some modern makeup tools and cosmetics and make some substitutes. Although she doesn't need to wear makeup at her current age, she is prepared. She really doesn't have much confidence in ancient cosmetics, although there are pure natural ingredients, but it is inevitable that there will be substances harmful to the body, think about it is safer to make your own homemade. She used to follow her friends according to online tutorials, and tinkered with some lipstick, rouge, lotion and the like, but now that she has money and leisure, can't she copy it?

After all, Qingxing is a person who has mixed in the Qinglou, and he also knows a few fat powder spice recipes, but the materials used are not very good. Qin Hanzhen asked for the recipe she knew, and then asked Li Zi to go to the bookstores in Jinling City, buy some books that recorded the recipes of cosmetics or skin care products, and study them by herself.

However, this kind of book is not sold very often, and it is said that it is generally collected privately by large families and passed down from generation to generation. Qin Hanzhen could only rely on some superficial basic formulas, and then recall what he had learned and done, and by the way, he wanted to ask his grandfather about some recipes he had seen when he was young, and then come up with his own formula. In this process, grandfather Qin Baike helped a lot. He used to have a carefree career as a son-in-law, and he had a good relationship with his sister, he knew how to prepare perfumes, and he also knew how to make fat powder that did not hurt his skin, as well as balms for skin care in winter, and his knowledge reserve was rich.

Qin Hanzhen had a good time with Qing Xing, and Niu also found it interesting when he knew about it. Although she is older, she also loves to be pretty when she is young, and she has made lip balm and incense balls with Mama Tiger's master and servant. Now that I am older, my hobby of makeup has faded, but I am very interested in skin care products. Seeing that Qin Hanzhen wanted to get any skin care products, he also helped him come up with an idea, thinking that he could try it. Mama Wei, who came south with her, was born in the Internal Affairs Office and used to be a palace maid, so she also knew a lot about this type of knowledge, and provided Qin Hanzhen with many useful suggestions.

Qin Hanzhen's family makeup and skin care products laboratory was just like that.

Originally, she played with the sisters in the clan, but after the previous small turmoil, this interest has faded a lot. She only occasionally invites her sisters to come to the sixth room for a tea party, chat about some homely gossip, and make her grandmother happy by the way. Gone are the days of running around with my sisters, as they had done before. She wasn't really a nine- or ten-year-old girl after all, and now she spends more time at home.

Qin Hanzhen found new fun, and Zhao Mo couldn't help but feel a little lonely.

Although he often goes in and out with Qin Jian, in Qinzhuang, Qin Jian often plays with his brothers, and he is not very happy to attend this kind of occasion.

First, when the boys of the Qin family gathered, he came over with a foreign surname, and everyone was uncomfortable; second, if he wanted to interact with the young people of the same age of the Qin family, he naturally had to tell his identity, but his identity was ...... It's a hassle to really say it. He could only vaguely introduce himself as a clan, he lost his mother last year, and his father remarried his stepmother, and he didn't like him very much, so he followed his uncle and grandfather Qin Bai to Jiangnan to play. Such a background introduction avoided the Qin family from talking about his identity as the son of the crown prince candidate, but correspondingly, it also brought another kind of trouble.

There are always people who like to ask him about his family, either kindly give him advice, teach him how to fight wits and courage with his stepmother, or pity him and comfort him, and then wonder if if he has a stepmother, if he has a younger brother in the future, will it affect him to inherit the family title and so on......

Zhao Mo didn't want a few teenagers to teach him how to fight his stepmother, nor did he want people to pity him, so he had to find an excuse not to accompany Qin Jian to associate with his brothers. He stayed in the six-room ancestral house, but he could often ask Qin Bai for homework. But Qin Bai is not there every day, there is always a time to go out. Now that even Qin Hanzhen has a new pastime, Zhao Mo can only find a way to pass the time by himself.

Lately he has been quite fond of going out on horseback alone, or wandering in the fields, or going to the town for tea and shopping. He has rarely had such a leisure time since he was a child, but he has slowly felt a little fun.

After going to the town too many times, Zhao Mo would inevitably meet the uncle who was born in the Liyang Palace. The other party was as gentle and kind as ever, and invited him to have tea and dinner together. Although Zhao Mo prefers to stay alone, at most with only one henchman, the uncle treats him very well, and will ask him with concern what he is worried about, whether he has enough pocket money on hand, whether he is used to eating Jiangnan food every day, and so on. When they met for the third time, the uncle took him straight back to his current residence and invited him to dinner.

Zhao Mo told Qin Hanzhen about this in private, and said, "This uncle is really a very good person. I hadn't seen him before, and I was still a little wary of him, always suspicious of his intentions, but he treated me very well. He is knowledgeable and has a good temperament, but unfortunately he was born in the palace of Liyang. Why is he from the Liyang Palace?"

Qin Hanzhen also had a good impression of that Zhao Gongzi, but he felt that the other party was more mysterious and couldn't figure out the way. Hearing Zhao Mo say this, she asked suspiciously: "What's wrong with Liyang Palace?" Although there are more children and grandchildren, as long as they are really capable people, they don't have to rely on their families, and they can still get ahead." Isn't the emperor now trying to promote talented juniors in the clan?" I remember Zhao Mo's father, Zhao Shuo, who made a name for himself in the court because of this.

Zhao Mo shook his head and paused: "The bloodline of the Liyang Royal Mansion is a little farther away from the royal family, and there are many heirs, and there are endless disputes in the mansion, so it is impossible to work together to do one thing." ”

Qin Hanzhen blinked: "Huh?" What if the bloodline is a little farther away, what does it have to do with the disputes within the palace?

Zhao Mo smiled: "They are all the same children of the clan, do you think that my uncle and my father, as well as my second uncle, my uncle, and the little son of the Shu Prince's Mansion, which one is more outstanding?"

Qin Han really thought about it, even if she hadn't met these people in person, she knew them well: "To be honest, I think so...... Zhao Gongzi may be a little stronger, more generous than your father. Your father is better than your uncle and the little son of the Shu Palace. ”

She somewhat understood what Zhao Mo meant: "You mean...... This Zhao Gongzi is more suitable to succeed in the royal family, but because the blood of the Liyang Royal Mansion is far away, it is difficult to be picked, and because there are many heirs in the Liyang Royal Mansion, there are endless disputes, is it impossible to work together to support him on the throne?"

Zhao Mo didn't nod or shake his head, just sighed and said, "My father is always conceited, in fact, there are more outstanding children in the clan than him, but others may not have his blessings." If my uncle intends to compete for the throne and has the opportunity to perform in front of the emperor, I am afraid that there will be nothing to do with my father. ”

Qin Hanzhen said with a smile: "What's this? Everyone has their own aspirations, do people with outstanding character and talent have to fight for power? What's so bad about being an idle cloud and wild crane? Look at that Zhao Gongzi, if he wants to come to Jiangnan to play, he came, and if it was your father, can he be so free? Actually, I think it's not good to be an emperor. Maybe the power in his hands will be a little bigger, and he will be in charge of more things, but he is busy with government affairs all day long, and he is very bitter, and he has not hidden his private rights, and he is trapped in the palace wall, and he rarely has the opportunity to go out. Like the emperor, it's okay to go to the capital for a private visit, but it's simply delusional to want to go out of Beijing privately! In contrast, a little person like us is much more comfortable. If you grow up in the future, you will have money and leisure, and you will have no problem traveling all over the world. ”

Zhao Mo smiled when he heard this, and looked at Qin Hanzhen: "Does my cousin like to travel the world so much? ”

Qin Hanzhen said: "Who doesn't want to walk around and play in various places? Are you willing to spend all day facing the walls of the house?"

Zhao Mo thought for a while and said with a smile: "My cousin has a point. The capital is not a good place to stay, if I really have money and leisure as my cousin said, then I should really go outside to see more in order to broaden my horizons. Just like my uncle and grandfather said, it is better to read 10,000 books than to walk 10,000 miles. I haven't seen the world so big, maybe I will only think about how wronged I am. What's in it for me?"

Qin Hanzhen laughed when he heard this, and asked him: "Let's come to Jiangnan now, the season is not suitable now, otherwise we should really go to the surrounding area." If it were Cousin Zhao, where would you want to go? Suzhou, Hangzhou, Huzhou, or Shanghai...... No, Matsue?"

Zhao Mo couldn't help but think about it seriously: "If I really have the opportunity, I really want to go to Suzhou and Hangzhou." I often hear how prosperous Suzhou and Hangzhou are, how good they are, but unfortunately I have only walked around Jinling hastily. He once accompanied Qin Jian, called a few young people from the Qin clan, and visited the places of interest inside and outside Jinling City together, but he just watched the flowers and flowers, and never looked at them carefully.

Qin Hanzhen gave him a suggestion: "It's already October." Our family has acquired a few new properties, which are in the Jiangnan region, and there are also in the Suzhou and Hangzhou areas, and now it is time to collect rent and end the year. Grandfather planned to send Zhou Changnian to take He Xin to inspect various properties, and if there was no accident, these properties would be handed over to He Xin to take care of in the future. I'm going to have Li Zi go with his uncle and collect some souvenirs for me. Cousin Zhao, do you want to run around with you? It's much more convenient for you to go out than I do. ”

Zhao Mo couldn't help but feel a little moved.
