The next afternoon.

Mei Niang woke up, and Li Zhi was no longer around. She was stunned for a moment, then got up and went to wash. Seeing this, Minghe hurriedly stepped forward, just about to serve her as usual, but she was pushed and refused by her with one hand: "No need, just come to the palace yourself." ”

Minghe was very surprised when he heard this, but he didn't want to ask much, but he answered yes, and took the things from the little palace lady who served Mei Niang's makeup and hair next to him, and stood in place, personally serving Mei Niang.

It's been a long time since I've done this, grooming myself.

Mei Niang picked up the comb and combed her long black hair a little rustily, while trying to remember the last time she combed her long hair, but when it was.

It seems like...... It's in the Yanjia Palace, and it seems to be ......

It's in the Yunze Temple......

In any case, it had been a long, long time since she had done anything like this herself. Or rather, she hasn't done anything for herself for a long, long time.

Combing the hair is usually done for by the little waiters for themselves. If it weren't for them, Li Zhi would always do it himself—he seemed to like it very much.

Not to mention makeup. Needless to say, since she was sealed...... No, it should be said that since she entered the Taiji Palace for the second time, and then returned to this man, the chance of dyeing her eyebrows and lips is pitiful.

That's often the case...... Even if he had replaced the crown Liuxuan, even if she was still asleep, he would take a towel and clean his face, draw his eyebrows, and dye his lips for himself who was sleeping.

Although she actually didn't like this kind of behavior, when she couldn't stop him after saying it two or three times, she was helpless - in fact, as he said, not only him, but herself, didn't like to leave her unpowdered appearance to others.

Someone other than him.

Therefore, if there is an occasional time when he gets up in a hurry and does not have to clean his face and makeup with himself...... He must have instructed him to leave and right, and he was not allowed to lift her sarla casually. It wasn't until she woke up, cleaned her face, and painted her eyebrows and lips that she could start the account.

Over the years, this has become a tacit understanding between their husband and wife.

But today......

As if he had guessed her thoughts, Li Zhi did not comb for her - simply, he cleaned her face and evened out the powder. That's why the woman in the mirror looks extraordinarily pale and extraordinarily spiritual......

She doesn't like that of herself.

Staring at her in the mirror, Mei Niang put down the comb, stretched out her hand and spread it up, and immediately, a thin branch of Diandai appeared in the palm of her hand.

glanced at the Diandai, hesitated for a while, and then found the tip of the Dai wrapped in oiled paper, reached out and gently pulled it off, then picked it up, and tried to trace it to himself in the mirror.

OK......

Although it is not as beautiful as what Li Zhiping painted for her, or as beautiful as the palace ladies painted for her, it is neat and peugeot after all.

Lowering her eyes, she put Tian Dai in the makeup box that Minghe held in both hands, and stretched out her fingertips like white orchid dyed vermilion, and immediately, a box of rouge cream with a rich fragrance appeared under her fingertips.

With a gentle rub, the fingertips that were as white as jade beads were dyed with a little vermilion. She looked down again, looked into the mirror, and tapped her lips thinly.

……

At the same time.

His Royal Highness the Great Treasure.

Yuru, who was dressed as a man in a strong suit, glanced back at the hall, and then turned to look at the waiter who walked in front of her, holding the towel and basin used by Mei Niang: "Niangniang can get up?" ”

"Get up."

Seeing the waiter salute herself and leave with the basin in her hand, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and her eyes gradually became clearer.

Half an hour later.

On the phoenix seat in the apse of the Great Treasure Hall.

Mei Niang, who had finished breakfast and had eaten tea, was no longer as pale as when she got up, and her beautiful face was outlined, and she was also back to her unfazed state. This made Minghe very happy, and just wanted to say a few words, he heard Mei Niang say:

"Hongu has been sick for the past few days, so Jiro has not bothered much?"

As she spoke, the fine glass crystal teacup, as she gently stirred it back and forth, made a squeezing sound.

"Back to Niangniang, the Lord has been worried about Niangniang's illness in the past few days, and even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has visited Niangniang a few times, but he has given him back, but he is very tight."

"Hmm." Mei Niang nodded, and said slowly: "In addition to Jiro, I'm afraid that there are many people inside and outside this palace, so worry about whether the body of this palace is good or not?" ”

Ming He raised his eyebrows, and immediately understood what Mei Niang meant: "Niangniang is saying...... Those old men? This is true, but the Lord has arranged it properly, and I saw them busy for a while, up and down."

Hearing Li Zhi do this, Mei Niang didn't feel strange at all, but hooked a smile as beautiful as a red rose at the corner of her lips, lifted the lid of the tea cup in her hand again, and listened to it with satisfaction A short glissando, and then said: "It's hard for him...... On weekdays, he is always a person who is more willful than the main palace, and it is difficult for him. ”

Minghe was stunned, but he didn't understand what Mei Niang meant, but after thinking about it, he finally smiled: "Niang Niang said this, it seems that the Lord has the heart to settle it, and no one will be close to Niangniang." ”

"yes...... At this time, it is indeed not appropriate for this palace to come into contact with anyone. Mei Niang's eyes flashed, and she slowly rubbed the tea cup again, listening to its squealing sound, and smiled even deeper: "In the final analysis, this is also the biggest weakness of this palace, the deepest heart disease." So ......"

She stopped smiling, and the teacup in her hand also stopped: "If it is a weakness, it must be overcome; If it is a heart disease, it needs to be cured...... This is not only understood by him, but also by this palace. ”

Minghe has followed Mei Niang for ten years, step by step from a small chamberlain to the position of the chief attendant of the sixth palace in the capital, naturally he has already understood Mei Niang's meaning, but he still hasn't followed Mei Niang since he was a child like his master Ryan, so I really don't know what the "weakness" and "heart disease" in Mei Niang's words are. So for a while, I could only be stunned.

After all, in the past, Mei Niang would always tell him what was going on - as a superior, there is a sentence that needs to be kept in mind at all times:

That is, there is no need to suspect people, and there is no doubt about employing people.

But today, Mei Niang didn't look at him, let alone tell him the truth as before, so that he could do some things that should be done in some places where Mei Niang and Li Zhi were inconvenient.

Instead, he spoke directly and issued an order that called Minghe and was shocked:

"Well, the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and the ministers are serving the Jiucheng Palace, which is really hard work. As the queen of the middle palace, the palace should give a banquet to show consolation. However, there is a difference between inside and outside, and it is not appropriate for this palace to summon hundreds of officials. When the women of the hundred officials are ordered, and the women of the family are rewarded. The female guests in his house, regardless of the nobles, can all come by order. ”

Minghe opened his mouth and looked at Mei Niang, who was smiling brightly, and couldn't come back to his senses for a while.

Want...... Edict banquet for hundreds of officials and their dependents?!

She?! Empress Wu Zhao of the Tang Dynasty......

Want to give a banquet to the relatives of hundreds of officials and daughters?!
