After Narcissus finished speaking, she waited anxiously for the Queen Mother's reply.

The Queen Mother paused for a moment before scolding with a smile: "You girls, it's not enough to make things up by yourself, what are you going to do with me?" The mourning family is old and can't afford to toss. ”

Narcissus laughed when she heard the Queen Mother, and her heart was put back in her stomach. What woman doesn't love beauty? The Queen Mother is naturally no exception. Hurriedly said:

"Queen Mother, you are not old. You're just too frugal and plain on weekdays. If you dress up, you have to look at least ten years younger than the one in Anxi Palace. ”

"Bold! That's what you said too? "Peony has long been unaccustomed to the frivolity of narcissus and fragrant jade. Seeing the queen mother's high interest just now, she didn't teach them a lesson. Now the more narcissus speaks, the more unspeakable he becomes, so he stops talking.

Narcissus hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty: "The slave is too talkative." Please punish the Queen Mother! ”

"That's it. It's also that I usually spoil you. Peony, you can teach her well in a while. Although the Queen Mother said this, there was no look of annoyance on her face.

"Yes. Thank you for the kindness of the Queen Mother. Peony and Narcissus replied at the same time.

Narcissus's words seem frivolous, but why didn't they vote for Empress Dowager Liu?

Jin Ling'er of Anxi Palace is also in her fifties, but she still dominates the emperor. In the case of being with the emperor, mother and son are not like mother and son, and husband and wife are not like husband and wife.

Jin Ling'er's appearance in her early years was really good, and she was refreshing mixed with a bit of heroism. She has always paid great attention to taking care of her appearance.

But maintenance is maintenance, after all, it is a person who is over half a hundred years old. This Qixi Palace Banquet, if the Queen Mother looks younger than her, look at where her face goes.

Narcissus was not mistaken. Empress Dowager Liu summoned Zhang Weizhao after dinner. Zhang Weizhao carried her makeup box to the dormitory.

At noon on Qixi Festival, Emperor Chen Jianjun came to the Empress Dowager's Changle Palace to watch the princesses celebrate the begging festival. said that the princesses had a begging festival, but in fact, the queen mother loved to be lively, and everyone came to cheer.

Chen Jianjun now has only two daughters, one is a four-year-old Princess Renhe, and the other is a two-year-old Princess Deqing. Since it was a festival, other concubines with heads and faces in the palace also came to have fun, and those who had sons also brought their sons, so almost all the more important characters were present.

This was the first time Zhang Weizhao saw the emperor and his concubines after entering the palace.

The emperor and the harem concubines often come to greet the queen mother on weekdays, but at this time, Zhang Weizhao often closes his house in the backyard and does not go to the main hall to have fun, so he does not have the opportunity to "see the face of the sky".

She is not so curious about the emperor and concubines, and she doesn't want to find something to kneel and kowtow to others. She did not believe that the emperor was gifted like these natives, but that he was a son of heaven with an aura of his own. She feels that there is no difference between people and the structure of people. The emperor is also only a profession, just because of the social structure, this profession is relatively special, has a lot of power, and implements a lifelong and hereditary system.

But today, she had to stay with the Queen Mother not far away, because she had to touch up the Queen Mother's makeup at random.

Last night, she soaked the muslin cloth with special rose water and made a mask for the Queen Mother. After the muslin cloth was removed, the Queen Mother only felt that her cheeks were smooth and her nose was fragrant, which was very comfortable, and her heart was happy, and she gave Zhang Weizhao a lot of rewards. And told her that if she still needs any raw materials to make incense powder rouge in the future, she can find Xiangyu to open a warehouse to get it.

This made Zhang Weizhao very happy. You must know that the more wealth she accumulates now, the more capital she will have to go out in the future to promote her health and medical philosophy, such as publishing books or opening training courses. Even in the palace, there are many medical misunderstandings, such as when she heard that an elderly aunt ate live tadpoles for the young palace maid, just to treat the abscess on her legs. It simply scared Zhang Weizhao out of a cold sweat. If you don't get sick if you eat tadpoles alive, you have to eat them.

The Queen Mother made a mask and slept well. The next morning, Zhang Weizhao came to put on makeup for the Queen Mother. The queen mother's body is slightly plump, so her skin condition is also better, and with the effect of yesterday's mask, it looks shiny and elastic.

Zhang Weizhao used a cold eyeshadow for the Queen Mother, and the corners of her eyes were brightened, making the Queen Mother's facial features look more distinct, but not glamorous. The forehead, bridge of the nose and chin are highlighted with glitter, which is a bit like the popular Sanbai method in the Dayan court, but Zhang Weizhao is familiar with the skeletal and muscular structure, and the technique is natural, making people's faces look much more three-dimensional.

The Queen Mother is wearing a royal blue Xiujin dress today, wearing a green phoenix crown, and a peacock sapphire collar button on the collar, and her clothes and makeup match very well. After dressing up, the Queen Mother looked at herself in the mirror, as if she was ten years younger, and felt very satisfied.

It's just that it's summer. Although the temperature at this time is incomparable with the scorching heat experienced by Zhang Weizhao in the 21st century, he still sweats at noon. Zhang Weizhao took a makeup bag and stood behind Xiangyu and Narcissus, who was all the makeup artist who served as the Queen Mother today.

Because she was serving near the Queen Mother, she saw the appearance of today's son for the first time.

Chen Jianjun is six years old Chinese New Year's Eve, one year younger than his sister Fengqing eldest princess. Zhang Weizhao visually measured his height of about 1.7 meters, which was considered a medium level in this era. Overall thin and pale. The shoulders are slightly buckled inward, a little chest-hugged, and the whole person is not very stretched.

In fact, his facial features are very good, especially his eyebrows and eyes. But a person's appearance and aura are directly proportional, and his paleness and malaise reduce the saturation of his facial features, and cannot give people a feeling of plump and handsome.

A harem, thousands of palace maids and concubines, except for the elders, the rest can be regarded as his women in name. Thinking of thousands of women competing for this sick man, and they all wanted to spend the Spring Festival with him to have children and raise children, Zhang Weizhao couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat in his heart.

Your Majesty, take care!

Next, let's go to see the Queen. Empress Yu was two years younger than the emperor, emaciated, pale, and looked like a paper figure on a background board. Wearing a brown queen's regular dress, she did not wear a crown on her head, but simply pulled a round bun and inserted a nine-tailed phoenix hairpin. After entering the hall, he kept his head slightly bowed, and rarely spoke. This is a person who minimizes his own presence.

In contrast, Concubine Jin, who can always be the focus of everyone's gossip in the palace, has a much stronger aura. She was dressed in a dark red concubine dress, wearing a crown of eight treasures and a golden phoenix, and the rouge on her face swept diagonally from her cheekbones to the tails of her eyes.

Although the decoration is gorgeous, it can't hide the old age. Powder and rouge float on the face, look closely, on the neck, on the back of the hands, the green tendons are raised, showing the vicissitudes of life. Just a pair of eyes, very bright and sharp.

Zhang Weizhao knew that when the first emperor and the empress dowager were imprisoned in the South Palace, it was Jin Guifei, who was a palace maid at that time, who protected Chen Jianjun and escaped death many times. I think she suffered a lot in her early years, so she accumulated so much wind and frost.

Zhang Weizhao didn't care as much about women and men as people at this time. In her previous life, she had seen news photos of the French president and his wife who was 24 years older than her holding hands to show affection, and she had also seen the scene of Wendi Deng, the winner of life, and her 21-year-old boyfriend standing in the wind on a luxury cruise ship.

Since Yang Zhenning, the 82-year-old Nobel laureate at the time, can marry a 28-year-old intellectual young woman, the combination of a big woman and a little boy is nothing remarkable.

It's just that she doesn't like Jin Ling'er's fierce expression. No matter who Jin Ling'er's eyes glanced at, there was a kind of cold coldness, as if the women in the hall were her enemies. Her eyes were only a little warm when she was facing the emperor.

Standing two steps behind the emperor was the crown prince Chen Youcong. Chen Youcong wore a pale cyan summer dress, her hair was simply tied in a bun on the top of her head, and she wore a jade crown. Because the sleep has improved significantly in the past few days compared to some time ago, the blue and black under the eyes have disappeared, and the complexion looks much better, and he has returned to a handsome young man, but he still looks a little thin.

When Zhang Weizhao looked at Chen Youcong, Chen Youcong also suddenly saw Zhang Weizhao still wearing a blue robe in the group of palace maids full of flowers, and was quite surprised. Because I can't see Zhang Weizhao on occasions such as greetings and dinners. Seeing Zhang Weizhao smiling and nodding to him, he also subconsciously nodded in return. After that, the emperor and the concubines saluted the queen mother, and let the little prince and the little princess bow to the queen mother.

In fact, Zhang Weizhao did not go far, and waited in the ear room next to the main hall. It's just that she is not like other palace maids, she doesn't have to serve tea and pour water snacks, she just sits in the ear room and watches other people go in and out. Because the most important figures in the palace today are gathered in Changle Palace, the palace maids and eunuchs of Changle Palace are extremely cautious, for fear that if one accidentally does not serve well, which big man will lose his temper, he will suffer.

Zhang Weizhao, as a bystander, saw the peony, peony, fragrant jade and narcissus, one by one outside the hall in a hurry, with a serious face, and when he was about to walk to the door of the main hall, he quickly changed into a sweet smile. I can't help but sigh that their service spirit is really in place.

Of course, if the consequence of inadequate service is to lose their heads, I believe that most people will become gold medal waiters.

This can't help but make Zhang Weizhao wonder in his heart, why for people in this time and space, the more noble people are, the more they have to show their incompetence in life, otherwise they can't reflect their identity?

For example, in the Great Yan Palace, those who are called masters do not have to wash their faces, nor do they have to wear their own clothes, and they need palace maids and eunuchs to put dishes in their bowls when they eat, and they must be accompanied by someone wherever they go. It's clearly a baby's style. In healthy people, only babies need to be constantly cared for, otherwise they will not survive.

She recalls that when she was studying in England in her previous life, she could often see the history and news of the British royal family in books and websites. The British royal family also has a special attendant service, but they did not let the attendant take care of themselves as a baby, not only today, but even in history there is no habit of having to be a waiter to take a dish and bathe.

The strange thing is that in the Great Yan, or not only in the Great Yan, but in the entire ancient history of China, people have recognized this law for thousands of years, and they all believe that this kind of infant style of life is the embodiment of success and dignity. This is a very interesting phenomenon, and Zhang Weizhao believes that there must be a deep psychological motivation at work.

While I was thinking about these things that I didn't have, suddenly there was a commotion in the main hall. Then I saw Xiangyu running over like a gust of wind, grabbed Zhang Weizhao, split his head and covered his face and asked, "Princess Renhe is stuck with hazelnuts, do you have a way to cure it?" ”
