131. Perfume for men - fashion
In the Taiji Palace, Emperor Li Shimin had just finished a day's work and returned to **. According to the custom, he either slept with the eldest grandson queen in the Lizheng Palace, or summoned a concubine to the Ganlu Hall to sleep. However, when he first entered the ** today, he smelled a fragrance.
"Your Majesty!" A woman immediately came to greet her.
"Concubine Yang?" Li Shimin asked.
This woman is Concubine Yang, that is, the daughter of Emperor Yang of Sui, the princess of the previous dynasty. And this woman is not the eldest concubine Yang who gave birth to the third prince Li Ke and the sixth prince Li Su, but the little Yang concubine that Li Shimin received from his younger brother Li Yuanji's backyard after the Xuanwumen Revolution last year. However, after Li Shimin accepted it, he almost forgot about this woman. And this Concubine Yang has never won Li Shimin's attention, and now she actually took the initiative to appear by Li Shimin's side.
Li Shimin moved his nose, and there was actually a fragrance on this Yang Fei, and it was a strong rose fragrance. After smelling this aroma, Li Shimin suddenly felt that his desire came up. Li Shimin, who didn't take this Concubine Yang seriously, actually wanted to take the initiative to approach.
"You're coming to the Manna Hall tonight!" Li Shimin said.
I have to say that perfume has a certain aphrodisiac effect, so Li Shimin actually smelled this fragrance, and he couldn't stand it anymore.
The next day, when Li Shimin got up from Concubine Yang's body, he suddenly recalled yesterday's events.
"What's on you? So fragrant? Li Shimin asked.
Since the emperor asked, Concubine Xiao Yang, who was the concubine, could only answer honestly. Concubine Xiao Yang told Li Shimin what the concubine wanted to invest, and then handed over the matter to Jingwen. And Jingwen made a perfume and sent it to the concubines of **, so Concubine Yang was able to do this.
Li Shimin didn't say anything about the concubine asking Jingwen to help take care of the industry, but he was very interested in perfume.
"Perfume? What is this? Li Shimin asked in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, this is said to be refined from flowers, and it is very expensive!" Concubine Yang said.
"Perfume? Not bad, good stuff! Li Shimin thought to himself.
Not long after, Li Shimin called Jingwen into the palace again.
"Your Majesty, why did you call Weichen here?" Jingwen asked.
"You made a perfume and gave it to my concubine? This stuff is good! Li Shimin said.
Jingwen immediately said: "Your Majesty, the minister is just helping you to be more beautiful and charming, and it will not be the emperor who will benefit at that time?" ”
Jingwen is also good at what he said, Jingwen gave the concubines perfume, this is for the sake of the emperor's "sexual happiness", is there anything wrong? Therefore, even Emperor Li Shimin can't blame Jingwen.
"I didn't say there was a problem with this perfume, I just wanted to ask you, is there a lighter perfume, and it is sandalwood? I don't want the smell to be too strong, I like something a little more elegant. Li Shimin asked.
"Lighter? Sandalwood-scented? Your Majesty, if you need it, you can do it! But the emperor, the sandalwood fragrance doesn't seem to be suitable for women! Jingwen said.
In Jingwen's eyes, this perfume should be for the concubine, Li Shimin would actually like something as high-end and high-grade as sandalwood? Sandalwood is actually not suitable for concubines, because this fragrance is too high, and women may not be able to boost some desires when they use it. Li Shimin actually likes his own women to use these, which is a bit surprising. And what surprised Jingwen even more was still to come.
"Who said it was for the concubine? It's me who wants to use it myself. You go get some lighter sandalwood perfume, and bring it to me, and I'll use it too. Li Shimin said.
Jingwen almost fainted when he heard Li Shimin's words. Jingwen never thought that Li Shimin actually wanted to use perfume? This situation is too deceitful, right? In Jingwen's eyes, only women can use perfume, but Li Shimin uses it as a big man? If it weren't for the fact that there was no kind of surgery in ancient times, I'm afraid Jingwen would have suspected that Li Shimin had that kind of surgery. Men use perfume, which makes Jingwen weird no matter how he thinks.
At least, in Jingwen's previous life, none of the men around him used perfume. And Jingwen can't imagine that if a man uses perfume, isn't it just like the sunflower book in the TV series, and he feels like he is neither male nor female? If it is a eunuch eunuch who uses perfume, Jingwen can still understand it. But the emperor is a big man, isn't this ......
"Why are you looking at me so strangely, is there anything strange about me?" Li Shimin asked.
Jingwen immediately continued to ask: "Your Majesty, why do you also use perfume?" Isn't this a bit ......."
"What's so strange about this? Isn't it very normal for men to use spices? Li Shimin also asked a little incomprehensibly.
"Your Majesty, it's not just women who make themselves fragrant, but why do men also use spices? Isn't that disgusting? Jingwen said.
"Disgusting what? Aren't all the princes in the court using sachets? Not only women, but also men have sachets! Sachets are generally filled with spices and are able to continuously release aromas. However, the effect of this sachet is not as good as this perfume, and the sachet can only smell the fragrance when it is placed on the chest. But this perfume can be smelled from a distance, so the fragrance of this perfume is relatively strong, which is why I want perfume. Li Shimin said.
Then, Li Shimin picked up a small cloth bag around his waist and threw it to Jingwen. Jingwen saw this cloth bag, and then touched it, and there were obviously some spices inside. Jingwen was speechless, it turns out that ancient men also used sachets! Jingwen watched those TV series, and thought that only ancient women used sachets, but men also used sachets?
"So, perfume doesn't have to be a woman's thing, and men also use perfume? So my perfume is not only used by women, but also by men? Jingwen thought secretly.
Originally, Jingwen just thought that women only used perfume, but now that men also use perfume, the market has expanded a lot for no reason. And Jingwen has to find a way to study several men's perfumes when he goes back, so as to satisfy those men's ideas of using perfumes! The perfume used by men and women is definitely different, so it is impossible for Jingwen to give the perfume used by women to men!
"Your Majesty, the minister will go back immediately and get some sandalwood perfume for the emperor. When the time comes, the emperor will be satisfied! Jingwen said.
