The dynasty has a strict "curfew" policy, as soon as the drums sound at night, the doors of the house will be closed, and people will be forbidden to walk at night. However, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, from the capital city of Chang'an, to all states and counties, there was a temporary curfew.

At that time, when the courtiers were influenced by the wind of the Wei and Jin dynasties, they had the heart of a ranger when they were young, and then they had the wind of seeking immortals and asking questions. Therefore, according to the Taoist theory of "three yuan", the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is called the Shangyuan Festival.

It's night, and there is a lantern festival on the Metaverse Festival.

At the end of the year and the beginning of the year, there are foreign envoys to worship. In order to achieve the grace of a prominent country, advocated by the saint himself, on the fifteenth day of the first month of each year, he ordered the man-made giant lamp tower, lighthouse and other powerful envoys, and the princes and ministers spent huge sums of money to build all kinds of giant lamps in order to please the saints.

Nearly a hundred years after the establishment of the dynasty, the scale of the lantern appreciation activities of the Shangyuan Festival has reached an unprecedented grand.

In Chang'an City, whether it is the inner courtyard of the palace or the streets and alleys, the lights are brilliant everywhere. At that time, from the princes and nobles, down to the peddlers and pawns, everyone will go out to enjoy the lantern festival.

In addition, in addition to tens of thousands of lanterns in the streets and alleys of Chang'an all night, there are hundreds of opera furnishings and singing carnivals, but the most eye-catching are the beauties of Chang'an.

On this day, they can not be restricted by their status and clothing level, put on their most colorful clothes, apply powder and rouge, draw eyebrows and appliqués, paint red lips, and then put on new red makeup, walk out of the house, and become the most beautiful scenery in Chang'an City.

This is exactly what it is: the scholars and girls compete for beauty, and the pink and delicacy are dyed together.

The so-called little girl who has been a little girl for too many years, and now in the new year, she has finally grown to fourteen years old, Rao is reluctant to pay any longer, and feels that the full-breasted skirt will be worn once a year, and she still can't help but yearn for gorgeous and elegant ancient costumes.

However, women are always impulsive when they spend their money.

I bought a flowing full-breasted skirt, and the beauty is there, especially the shawl that is tied to the arm, which is simply a must-have for modern little girls to pretend to be at home, and now that she is really wearing such a dress, Liu Chenxing feels as if she has become a fairy, and it can be regarded as a dream when she was a child.

But on the fifteenth day of the first month of the lunar calendar, the spring is cold, and it is even more cold in the morning and evening.

So, I had to buy a cloak to keep out the cold, and at the moment when there was no cotton, if I wanted to keep out the cold, I only had fur. Mink fur and fox fur are unthinkable, and the most common rabbit fur is the best choice.

But although the rabbit fur is ordinary, it can be used from head to foot with a lot of materials, in order to be beautiful, it is necessary to embroider the mother on the outer layer of the rabbit fur sewn on a brocade satin and the like, which is the cost, pick and choose to shop around, the cheapest have to go five.

As a fur vendor at home, when she thought of spending five times to buy a rabbit fur cloak, Liu Chenxing was so regretful that she beat her chest and stomped her feet, why didn't she think about pulling the fabric and asking A-Niang to make her one!?

The only thing that can comfort oneself, nowadays cloth can be used as money, this red brocade cloak with rabbit fur inside, as long as it is well maintained, it will be really poor in the future, and it can be exchanged for a good price, so I will bite a mouthful of silver teeth, buy, buy, buy!

As for the golden hairpin who pretended to be a family fantasy when she was a child, she really couldn't go against her will as she persuaded the Liu family to accept the gold bracelet, saying that the gold bracelet could also be used as money.

In this case, on the day of the Shangyuan Festival Lantern Festival, Liu Chenxing, in order not to waste more than six huge sums of money, completed the day's study task early, and began to bathe and change clothes after lunch.

He wore a goose-yellow wide-sleeved full-breasted skirt, red silk, a green arm-pull shawl, and a red brocade rabbit fur cape on the inside. Once again, the color combination of red, yellow and green is obviously very gaudy in modern times, but it is a wonderful match at the moment, and red and yellow are the main colors of Chang'an City tonight.

In this way, there must be a hair bun that complements each other, and the double-ring hanging bun is the most popular hairstyle for unmarried girls nowadays, but it is inevitable that they will all have the same bun when they go out like this.

Liu Chenxing thought about it for a while, and remembered that he had watched a very old TV series "Wu Zetian", starring performance artist Liu Xiaoqing, Wu Zetian when he was a girl, he combed a hairstyle similar to a double-ring hanging bun, which is a braided double ring on the left and right sides of the head, and there are two double rings on the left and right under it, and with a row of Qi bangs buttoned on the forehead, the girl's delicate and pretty are immediately visible.

In that scene, Liu Chenxing has always been very amazing, so he did not hesitate to choose Liu Xiaoqing's girlhood in the drama "Wu Zetian".

As for the bangs in front of the forehead, it is very easy to handle, cut a thin layer of Qi bangs, and then use a wooden stick to heat the bangs to roll inward, which is a very popular air bangs in modern times.

And one of the reasons why I chose this bun is also because there is no golden hairpin head, that is, seasonal flowers are also very expensive at the moment, but in the play "Wu Zetian", it is accompanied by a red hairband, tied on the left and right braided double rings on the top of her head, and she still imitates it, which is beautiful and saves money on jewelry.

I cleaned up carefully from head to toe, and I had to put on makeup on my face.

For ancient makeup, she is not good at it.

But Xue Yuan is also a little lady of the big squire's family, a complete set of cosmetics is still available, and makeup skills are also available, so Liu Chenxing was transformed by dividing five by two.

"How? Not bad! ”

Xue Yuan took out his small bronze mirror and went over, and immediately became proud, "I came to Chang'an to live in Pingkangfang, I have seen famous prostitutes and noblewomen, and the makeup on your face now is the most popular in Chang'an!" ”

After speaking, he raised his chin, the meaning was obvious, and waited for Liu Chenxing to praise him.

Liu Chenxing couldn't help but sigh at the delicacy of Xue Yuan's small bronze mirror, only holding the handle of the mirror, looking at himself who was a little blurry in the mirror, but could still see his face clearly, he opened his mouth, it was really difficult to express his mood at the moment.

Yes, this is indeed the most popular makeup for Chang'an women.

She has seen it on the face of the rainbow fairy, and she has also seen it on the face of the lady of Cui Xiangfu, so she is also prepared in her heart, but she can't help but be shocked when she sees herself in the mirror.

Her face is too white, the blush on her cheeks is too red, the pear vortex on her face has been newly cut with a small black dot, and the center of her eyebrows is a goose yellow with vermilion pear blossoms, which is too heavy makeup!

It's like a singer!

But after Xue Yuan finished painting, Yuanyuan's eyes were full of amazement, so it should be that his aesthetics are different, and Xue Yuan is now waiting to praise, if he dares to say that he will wash it off, it is estimated that the boat of friendship will turn over.

In order to make their friendship last forever, Liu Chenxing told himself that he would dress like this once a year, so he smiled, got up from the straw mat he was sitting on, and said: "Ah Yuan, your makeup skills are so good, I look the best today when I am fourteen years old!" ”

After finishing speaking, he walked quickly to the door of the west wing and said, "Okay, Ah Zhen has been called to knock on the door a few times, let's go out quickly!" ”

As she spoke, there was a "squeak", and Liu Chenxing was afraid that Xue Yuan would add some color to her face, so he pushed the door out as if he was running away.
