Chapter 60: Who Your Majesty Will Choose?
Lin Zhu has always loved cleanliness, and his clothes must be washed once he wears them on weekdays, and he has to change at least five or six sets of clothes a day, and these clothes must be ironed with incense before he is willing to wear them. In addition, they have to bathe every other day, and after bathing, they have to apply a special balm to their bodies. In the long run, Lin Ji will exude a faint and good-smelling fragrance on his body all the time.
Shu Ning thinks it smells good on weekdays, and he naturally doesn't feel exceptional when he just sat down today.
It was only after a while that she felt a little dizzy.
Xu has been sitting with Lin Ji for too long today, and the incense on his festival day will be more serious; Or maybe it's because I got up too early today and didn't eat, so I feel this way.
Shu Ning tried his best to hold his demeanor, only calmed down and took a deep breath and continued to put on makeup and cover up Lin Zhang, which naturally inevitably had to stare at Lin Zhang's face carefully, but the more seriously he didn't want to look, the more dizzy he became, and he couldn't help shaking his hands and almost fell away.
"Alas......" Lin Ji immediately noticed the slight fall of Shu Ning, and instinctively stretched out his hand to grab Shu Ning, but he didn't want to use too much force, but he couldn't control it and pulled Shu Ning to his side.
Before either of them could react, Shu Ning's head hit Lin Zhang's chin.
It's a little painful, a little sober, and a little ambiguous and embarrassing.
"Your Highness forgives your sins." Shu Ning hurriedly stood up, "It's that the concubine is a little dizzy, and she doesn't want to bump into His Highness." ”
"None...... Nothing. You...... How are you? Lin Ji covered his chin, his face once again showed a panicked look, and his tone was also cramped.
"Your Highness Lao, it's all right." Shu Ning looked at Lin Jiao, and his heart was pounding, and he only felt that he couldn't breathe.
There is a warm fragrance on his body, and between the two touches, there is a fawn colliding with each other, which is confusing.
"I didn't ...... I didn't hurt Your Highness. Shu Ning lowered his head slightly and looked at Lin Jiao, but his eyes couldn't help but dodge a little.
"No, no. I'm fine. Lin Ji's eyes flickered around.
"I'm afraid I didn't sleep well last night." Seeing this, Qin Ruo stepped forward with a smile on his face and asked.
"Yes, perhaps." Shu Ning nodded.
Qin Ruo looked at the prince's complexion, and saw that Shu Ning had already applied several layers of powder to Lin Jie, and the scars on his face had all been covered, and it was no different from his usual complexion, but it was natural.
"Niangniang covers His Royal Highness's wounds very well, but I can't see it at all, if Niangniang is dizzy, why don't I go back and rest first." Qin Ruo said thoughtfully.
"No, it's going to be done." After taking the refreshing menthol oil and smearing it on the temples, he felt extremely cool and refreshed.
The base makeup is good, but I just took pearl magnolia powder to set Lin Zhang's makeup. When I developed it before, I added talcum powder to it to make it more like modern loose powder, with a better natural effect and less easy to remove makeup.
Then he dipped the rouge and gently swept it on his face so that Lin Ji could see his good complexion, which was also to make Lin Zhang's complexion naturally not fake, so as not to be seen later.
Finally, I will paint Lin Ji's eyebrows a little, although the men of the dynasty do not like to apply makeup and powder, but the thrush on major festivals is essential, just to appear hard and add heroic masculinity.
In the end, after a morning of hard work, Lin Zhang's white and flawless face was handsome and beautiful, and he also lost his heroic edges.
Coupled with the big red leather clothes that should be worn, the whole fresh-clothed young man, the aura of the noble king of the heavenly family is undoubted.
"Your Highness, this is the end of the painting. Although it is hot in the main hall, the makeup painted by the concubine for you will not be anything if you sweat later. Shu Ning looked at his "work" with great satisfaction, and a sense of accomplishment came spontaneously.
"Thank you." The young king nodded at Shu Ning in thanks while wearing the tie on his hat.
"Your Highness, don't be polite, let's go to the Wuying Hall in front first." Shu Ning saluted respectfully: "North Korea's tribute is a major event, but it will not be too late. ”
Lin Ji agreed, and passed the sedan chair.
Shu Ning took the ladies to send Lin Zhu off at the main gate of Qingning Palace, and waited until the sedan chair honor guard rose up beautifully, and Shu Ning slowly got up, but couldn't help but look at the red boy on the sedan chair.
Fengshen is handsome, Zhilan Yushu, all over his body are noble heavenly dignified, just sitting on the sedan chair, he has all the high dignity, but he is not proud, and he is clearly the appearance of an imperial king.
Such a good young man deserves to be such a strict monarch, but unfortunately, creation makes people, and a young man like him can't be a monarch after all.
It can only be a sad song turned into a breeze, leaving sighs and regrets on the way, turning into a sighing stroke in the annals of history, a tragic elegy.
"Okay, let's go back and prepare, and wait for the evening feast, but don't be late." Shu Ning instructed the three ladies who came out: "They are all from the heavenly family, so naturally they can't lose face in front of the envoys of the feudal country." ”
Shao, Meng, and Liu's three ladies all nodded yes. After Shu Ning's handling of Zhou Niangzi's affairs before, these three are very honest these days, and they will show more fear for Shu Ning.
Besides, everyone knows that before such a national feast, if you are lucky enough to appear in front of everyone in a perfect manner, it is a great opportunity.
Shu Ning was busy early in the morning, thinking that Lin Ji would go back to sleep for a while after he left, but he didn't want to come over from Kunming Palace to pass on the will, saying that the wives of the Korean envoys would also enter the palace to pay homage to the queen in a while, and invite the princess to accompany him.
I couldn't rest, so I had to bite the bullet.
When I arrived at the Kunming Palace, I saw a few women dressed in Korean costumes sitting at the bottom and talking to the queen in Chinese with a kimchi accent. ”
At the beginning of the founding of the Joseon Dynasty, it was a vassal state of the Daeyan domain, and it was called a vassal to the Daeyan and set it at the level of the county king, and the king and princess of the Joseon Dynasty were given an exceptional crown dress for the prince and his wife, and the dress system of the Daeyan was given, and the Koreans were ordered to wear imitation clothes. After so many years, North Korean clothing has inherited and changed the Central Plains Hanfu and has become its own national system, but the shadow of the Central Plains Hanfu naturally exists on the clothes.
Therefore, the most noble person in the entire Korean country is only at the level of the princess of the county, and as the crown princess, she can naturally accept the courtesy of the wife of the Korean envoy in peace.
said that it was the wife of the envoy, but in fact, there were several families who came to worship with their own daughters, and the intention was naturally self-evident.
For North Korea, which is dependent on the Celestial Empire, there are only a few ways to ensure that it will be dependent on the Celestial Empire for generations. And offering women is the most trouble-free one.
And the emperor, for the sake of North Korea's face, will naturally accept one or two.
Shu Ning smiled and stepped forward to sit next to the queen, looking at a few of the girls, these girls are only fifteen or sixteen years old, without powder, it is enough to be beautiful and beautiful, the Korean costume is simple, and a twisted braid hanging down the back of the head is naturally the most test of appearance.
They are all tested.
The vassal state paid tribute, and the conversation between the two countries was naturally just a few words of exchange on face. Those ladies first praised the queen mother of the world, and then praised the princess for her graceful atmosphere; The mother-in-law smiled and was praised, and praised the envoys...... I speak Chinese well.
Nonsense! The Korean state does not have its own script, it can only be written in Chinese, and it has been dependent on China for thousands of years, so it is natural that the upper nobles of North Korea can speak Chinese.
Although in fact, these people in front of them are more or less still a little accented.
But the girls brought by the ladies were good, I think they had been trained since childhood, and their accents were no different from those of the people of Middle-earth.
After some politeness, the queen ordered someone to send the Korean envoys and wives back to the post house outside, and sent some high-end gifts by the way.
After everyone left, the queen asked Shu Ning: "Do you think, these girls, who will Your Majesty choose to enter the palace?" "I have a headache.
"Queen Mother......" Shu Ning looked at the queen, this is not easy to say, after all, it is still a little hurtful.
"It's okay, doesn't Hongu himself know? His Majesty already knew what North Korea meant, so naturally he also planned to accept a few North Korean concubines. The palace has been prepared for a long time, but this time it sent so much, but I don't know who Your Majesty should choose. ”
Shu Ning pondered for a moment and said: "The Li girl is dignified and modest, with a degree of advance and retreat, and she is beautiful. If you think about it, you will get into the blue eyes of your father. ”
The queen nodded: "You and I have gone to the same place, and this palace also looks at the Li family well." You've got a good eye. ”
Shu Ning smiled modestly.
In fact, it's not my own eyes at all, but that's what I said in the original book.
