11 and the Rites

finally sent that Ji Qili away, and the day passed again.

All the princesses and princes' clothes have been completed, and they are still missing. The costumes for the gift are also being made in a hurry, Chu Qingluo only needs to finish the last few sets of renderings, and the costume is OK. As for the selected models, under the leadership of several of her assistants, they can basically see it, and she will train them more strictly in the remaining month.

When she returned to Chu's house, she had missed dinner time, and Chu's mother instructed her entourage to heat up the dishes again. "Look at you, you're so busy that you don't even need dinner."

"Well, there's no way, it's good to be busy this month." Chu Qingluo replied while putting rice in his mouth.

Mother Chu sat down next to her: "I don't care, anyway, you have to spare time on the sixth day of the new year, on such an important day, even the empress will approve you to take leave." ”

"My mother, I haven't even seen the empress for so long since I entered the palace, even if she doesn't want to give me a holiday, she must know who I am first, right?" Chu Qingluo's chopsticks didn't stop, one chopstick after another.

"Look at your little bit of interest." Mother Chu glanced at her with disgust, and said, "Just remember this matter, and I'll take care of the rest." ”

"Eun, okay."

……

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, Chu Qingluo was woken up by the Nine Tails early in the morning. "Ouch! Why are you waking up so early?! She was annoyed by the nine-tails' non-stop alarm bell, and finally had a day off and couldn't even sleep!

Chu Qingluo was angry about getting up, but Nine-Tails didn't stop, and directly helped her hang up the curtain: "My eldest miss, if you don't get up, Mrs. should come in person!" ”

Hearing that the nine-tails moved out of Chu's mother, she sat up reluctantly: "Damn, you have the ability." ”

"Miss, I want you to sleep more, but it will take time to get dressed. It is said that the sedan chair man is already on his way, looking at the posture of the lady, I am afraid that I will have to let you swim the whole Yancheng today before I stop. Nine-Tails said as he handed over the tea.

"Huh?! That's an exaggeration! Chu Qingluo took the tea handed by Jiuwei with a dark face and rinsed his mouth, then walked to the basin and began to wash his face.

After she wiped her hands clean, Nine-Tails helped her change into the dress carefully prepared by Chu's mother. A pink floor-mopping smoke cage plum blossom baishui skirt with a rose-colored cardigan waist and a purple tassel belt around the waist.

At this time, Tong Mu also walked in with jewelry: "Miss, Madam said, these jewelry must be worn." ”

For this day, Chu Mu also specially asked people to make a new set of jewelry.

"Well, let it go. I'll draw the makeup myself, and you two can help me comb my hair. Chu Qingluo immediately found the supplies he needed in a wooden box in front of the dresser. Is this foundation? She asked, pointing to a box of white powder.

"This is Fu powder, which can make Miss's face whiter and tenderer." Kiulownia explained.

"Oh." She didn't plan to use this Fu powder at all, knowing that the lead content of this thing was extremely high in ancient times. I should be glad that she is white enough and her skin is good enough. She picked up a box of dark solid powder and asked, "This is for thrushes, right?" ”

Paulownia: "Yes, this is Luozidai. ”

Chu Qingluo dipped a pen in some water, then dipped it in snails, raised and fell with his hands, and drew his eyebrows in three or five strokes. But the paulownia on the side couldn't help but shout when he saw it: "Miss! What kind of eyebrow are you drawing? ”

The Nine-Tails, who was doing her hair, couldn't help but turn her head to look, and was also taken aback: "This is also too peaceful, right?!" ”

Chu Qingluo rolled his eyes: "Go, go, what do you know?" This is called a straight eyebrow. I know that you are popular thin eyebrows, willow eyebrows or something, but as soon as the word sister eyebrows came out, she definitely killed the audience in seconds and became a new weather vane. ”

"......" Nine-tails and Tongmu looked at each other, although they didn't dare to agree, but this eyebrow painting on the young lady's face was still very good-looking, so they no longer raised objections.

Finally, Chu Qingluo picked up the rouge, dipped it with his fingertips, gently wiped it on his cheeks, and then dyed it on his lips. Ancient people made up more trouble than modern people, and it is estimated that the complicated and troublesome ones are left in the hair.

"Alright." Just thinking that it would take a lot of time for her hair, Nine-Tails helped her get her hair in order in the blink of an eye. This speed has to be said, it is very amazing.

I saw that the sideburns on the side of her face bulged back, coiled into a bun on the top of her head, and the remaining part of the green silk hung down on her back. Tong Mu took out a hair ornament and put it on for her, a finely carved piece of money hung from the top of her head in front of her forehead, and two golden flowers were inserted into the flower bun. Then he put on an emerald green jade bracelet for her.

After some upside down, Chu Qingluo took a serious look in front of the bronze mirror, even if he was dressed up and wore gold and jade, he couldn't hide his natural freshness and elegance, and he was not stained with mortal dust. She smiled in the mirror with great satisfaction.

"Miss, do you think I'm okay with this craft?" The Nine-Tails did not forget to invite merit.

"Miss is as beautiful as a fairy even if she wears her hair." Kiulownia was unimpressed by his craftsmanship.

Nine-Tails glared at Tongmu: "Why do you always love to go against me?" ”

Kiriki: "I'm just telling the truth. ”

Seeing that the Nine-Tails should be in a hurry, Chu Qingluo interrupted the two with a smile: "Okay! Isn't it in a hurry? ”

"Yes, yes, I don't have anything to do with you." Nine-Tails snorted, "Let's go, miss." After speaking, he helped Chu Qingluo out of the house.

Mother Chu and Chu Yilin were already waiting in the lobby, and when they saw Chu Qingluo coming out, Mother Chu said proudly: "The daughter of our Chu family is really beautiful, bright and moving. ”

"Of course, the most outstanding nature is the mother." Chu Yilin patted his ass on the side.

Chu Mu glanced at him and said with a smile: "Don't think that if you say that, I will talk to you less." ”

"If you want to talk about our Chu family, the sweetest mouth is our second brother." Chu Yilin's sycophants were all listened to by Chu Qingluo, and he had to tease him a few words.

"Third sister, lifted."

Mother Chu pulled Chu Qingluo to look left and right, and after carefully examining her from head to toe, she said with confidence: "Daughter, congratulations on your success." If you see the man you like today, bring it back. After speaking, he nodded at the paulownia.

Tong Mu handed over the tray and saw a red sachet on the plate. Chu Qingluo picked it up, and a faint fragrance of flowers came to his nose. The face of the sachet is embroidered with a snow lotus, which seems to have something in it, and it has a cold touch. "What is this?"

Chu Mu smiled lightly: "There are dried petals in this sachet and a small piece of jade. When you see the man you like, you throw it at him, and if you don't have it, you throw it away. ”

"Huh? So wasteful? Aren't everyone else throwing a handkerchief and it's done? Chu Qingluo pursed his mouth slightly, and he really felt sorry for the jade in the sachet.

"What kind of stupid words, how can our Chu family do things with a handkerchief? Remember, this sachet cannot be brought back, it must be thrown out today. Mother Chu did not forget to tell again and again.

Chu Qingluo tied the sachet around his waist: "Got it." ”

Only then did Chu Mu nod reassuringly and said, "Let's go." ”

Chu Qingluo turned around and walked towards the gate, suddenly thinking about what to www.biquge.info in the Biqu Pavilion, and said, "Second brother, send me off." ”

"Huh?! Hey, heyβ€”" Chu Yilin was pulled out of the door by Chu Qingluo without saying a word, "What are you doing here?" If you visit the city, I will not visit the city. ”

After Chu Qingluo confirmed that Chu Mu did not follow, he lowered his voice and asked, "Second brother, there is something I wanted to ask for a long time, but I haven't found a chance. ”

Chu Yilin straightened the coat that was torn apart by her, and said, "You ancient spirit, just ask." ”

"Is there anything that the Seven Princes have with me before me...... A special relationship? ”

"Forehead ......" saw that Qingluo's eyes were blinking, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. said that it has a lot to do with it, I'm afraid that Ji Qiran will pick his skin, if you want to say that it doesn't matter, you just open your eyes and talk nonsense. It's a question he really can't answer......

"How do I know this, you ask the Seventh Prince to go." He threw away the question and quickly slipped out, and the voice floated from behind him: "Third sister, congratulations to Ji Xuan, brother will not send it if he has something to do." ”

"What!? …… Ahssi! Chu Qingluo rolled his eyes helplessly, and saw that the nine tails and Tongmu were already waiting by the sedan chair, so he walked towards the six-person sedan chair.

The palanquin had red pillars at the four corners, and a tent was erected on the top, surrounded by flowers, and a goose-yellow light gauze curtain poured down from the top, and the intervals were scattered all around. This arrangement is very similar to the flower pavilion of a modern wedding. In the center of the sedan chair stands the back of the chair, which is also cushioned. There are also many musicians playing ceremonial music in front of and behind the sedan chair. Looking at this battle, it was much more luxurious than the battle of the second lady of the Huang family she had seen last time.

"Thank you." Chu Qingluo nodded slightly to the palanquin drivers and sat down.

The sedan chair was raised, and the music sounded. The group walked mightily towards the city.
