Chapter 149: Destroying the Runway Show
Time is fleeting, and soon it will be the day of the opening of Chu Lixue's new store, the sound of firecrackers mixed with the sound of drums and people's laughter.
"Wow, Princess Chen is really amazing, this is another store." Someone in the crowd exclaimed.
"But isn't it, when the flood in the south was the beginning, most of the expenses were paid by King Chen's mansion, if it wasn't for Princess Chen's clothes and food to be sent in time, then the people would have suffered."
Hearing this, Chu Lixue smiled, she couldn't imagine that it had been two years, and the people still remembered what she had done at the beginning, it seems that the sentence of the Thousand Years of Winning Grace and Fruit is correct, and the people know in their hearts who is the one who is good to them.
Chu Lixue was outside the store. The wooden figures were used to prop up various colors of clothes for display, attracting a lot of praise from the people.
"Sister Shu Yao, look at that beige placket with indigo plum blossom bamboo leaf embroidery collar on a white background, it's really beautiful."
"yes, these clothes are much more beautiful than the clothes in the garment shop."
"Sister Shuyao, look at that ivory white gongbi landscape robe with a round neck, if it is worn on Brother Shen's body, it must be more plump and handsome."
Hearing this, the woman named Shu Yao glanced at the woman beside her, and then smiled lightly: "Brother Shen, hehe, you girl shouldn't like him too." ”
"Oh, Sister Shuyao, what are you talking about. I really don't have anything to do with Brother Shen, don't get me wrong. The woman's face turned crimson.
However, she was only shy, but she didn't see the trace of hatred in her Shu Yao sister's eyes, it seems that this is another merry boy who attracts bees and butterflies, I really don't understand, why do these men marry so many women, and they also have to watch those women compete for favor and frame, is it just for their so-called right?
With the change of the drum music, this is the beginning of the show, an object originally surrounded by red silk, slowly falling in the music, appearing in front of everyone's eyes is a platform that everyone has never seen before, the platform is in a T-shape, people can stand on both sides to watch, and there is a temporary fence around the T-shaped catwalk.
This is what Chu Lixue has seriously thought, she wants to ensure that this runway show is held smoothly, and of course, she also wants to ensure the safety of these people. There are too many onlookers today, and it is inevitable that there will be some unscrupulous people hiding in it, and she must be prepared with both hands.
Seeing that the crowd was getting bigger and bigger, Chu Lixue stepped onto the stage, "Everyone, today is the opening of this fashion store, there will be a T show below, the clothes of this store will be displayed by the most famous Oiran ladies in the city, and customers who enter the store today to buy clothes of twenty taels of silver can choose a free dish at will in Deyue Building with their bills." After speaking, the cheers of the people ushered in.
The delicacies of Deyue Lou can be said to be the favorite food of the people in the city, the flavors of various places, and there are often new dishes, some people originally just planned to eat one or two dishes, but when they went to the store to see the new dishes on the table of others, they couldn't help but want to taste it.
The catwalk show officially began, every time there were two Oiran ladies performing on stage together, everyone's clothing style and color were different, the people of Yuncheng had never seen such a performance, and they couldn't take their eyes off watching it, and even some men drooled when they watched it.
If these Oiran ladies were in the past, they could only be seen by rich sons, since Princess Chen bought those brothels and turned them into performing arts centers, these Oiran ladies can let ordinary people see their faces, but they can only be seen from afar, although so, but this is already very content.
Naturally, King Ling also appeared in the crowd, but no one noticed his existence, because everyone's attention was focused on the catwalk performance, and even his cronies around him were fascinated.
"Master, do you want the slaves and maids to make them unable to perform?" A green-clothed maid beside King Ling said softly.
"Okay, don't hurt anyone, as long as some of them can't get on stage." King Ling said softly.
The reason why King Ling would say this was because he saw that the Oiran he had performed before didn't seem to be on stage again, if all the people were suddenly unable to perform on stage, Chu Lixue would definitely wonder if someone had done something and would change their strategy, if it was just a few people who suddenly became uncomfortable, then it would also reduce some doubts. He didn't want to start a war with Chu Lixue so quickly, this woman was really too smart, and the tricks she used were methods that he and the strategists around him couldn't think of.
If she can really be recruited under her banner, or married as a princess, the throne will be even more secure. Just as he was thinking about it, the green-clothed maid walked back slowly and quietly returned to King Ling's side.
"Master, it's all done, the slave and maid only put some laxatives in the tea of the four people, and they won't be discovered."
"Well, that's good." King Ling said without hesitation.
It's just a little laxative, and he can't find it on his head at all, even if he suspects that he did it, how can Chu Lixue guarantee that it is not the work of other red-eyed merchants.
When the time came for the last four most gorgeous clothes to be displayed, the four Oirans who were originally going to wear gorgeous costumes on stage suddenly had diarrhea and couldn't perform on stage at all.
Fortunately, a few of them have been training those oirans for the past few days, and naturally they have learned those ways of acting, but they don't have time to make up, how can this be good.
After the three of them changed their clothes and came out, Chu Lixue asked the three of them to stand side by side, and swept the rouge gouache over the faces of the three of them. Pick up a few pearl hairpins on the dressing table and decorate them between the hairs of several people at will, so that you can perform on stage.
The first to perform on stage were the two sisters Rean Xue and Wanyue, and everyone was stunned when they saw this, and no one could recognize them as the maidservants next to Princess Chen for a while, and they all thought that the ladies of that family rushed to the rescue.
"Lord, it's the two sisters Wanyue and Canxue." Remnant Ye said with his mouth wide open. Naturally, he knew that his two younger sisters were beautiful embryos, but he didn't expect to be so beautiful, it was the age when flowers bloomed, and it seemed that he should consider finding a mother-in-law for them.
Ning Xiang stayed in the dressing room and waited for Chu Lixue to come out, and when Chu Lixue got dressed and walked out, she couldn't help but exclaim: "Princess, you are usually very beautiful, and this dress is like a fairy on your body." It's sure to shock those people for a while. ”
"It's right to be shocked, otherwise what am I going to such a great deal of trouble for, just don't let the prince know, otherwise I don't know how much his vinegar jar will overturn." Chu Lixue chuckled.
"It's too late, the king already knows." King Chen didn't know when he quietly came behind Chu Lixue, but he didn't notice it.
"Lord, is my dress beautiful?" Chu Lixue said with a smile.
"Pretty." King Chen said expressionlessly.
"So is the clothes pretty, or am I pretty?"
"The clothes are beautiful, and the people are even more beautiful." King Chen praised without hesitation. His princess is the daughter of Chu Xiang, and his father said that Chu Xiang's eldest daughter fell into the city, and his younger daughter fell into the country. Such a beautiful woman who has captivated the country and the city can be his wife, of course, he must watch it closely, lest some disciples find an opportunity to get close.
Of course, in King Chen's subconscious, the disciple except for King Ling of Dongyu Kingdom was Ye Wushuang, but he never had an estrangement with Ye Wushuang because of this, because he believed in the character of Ye Wushuang and Chu Lixue.
"Ning Xiang, since the prince said that we are beautiful, hurry up and perform on stage." After finishing speaking, Chu Lixue pulled Ning Xiang and was about to go out, and just as he was about to speak, he saw Yan Xue and Wan Yue walking in, Chu Lixue took advantage of King Chen's trance and hurriedly pulled Ning Xiang out.
This brought even greater surprise to the onlookers, Princess Chen actually performed on stage in person, the clothes were simply designed for her, except for her, no one can wear such beautiful clothes.
Ye Wushuang, Shangguan Tianyu, Ling Wang and others standing in the crowd were all pointed, Chu Lixue's amazement made them not know how to describe it, it seemed that all gorgeous words could not express Chu Lixue's beauty at this moment.
Seeing this, the green-clothed maid beside King Ling said, "Master, the slave and maid are not doing well, and I ask the master to punish her." ”
At first, she was just thinking about how to make people unable to appear, and destroying the clothes was obviously the next step, so she chose to give the people who performed on stage tea and laxatives. But who would have thought that Princess Chen would perform on stage in person, and the three beautiful women just now should be the maidservants who often follow Chu Lixue.
"It's okay, it's not your fault, it's the opponent who is too shrewd, she's completely prepared, everyone else is just a green leaf, and she is the brightest star on the stage." King Ling said softly.
A catwalk costume show ended with the laughter of everyone, and the onlookers were still unsatisfied, so they walked into the store and chose the clothes they liked. And the staff in the store are also very careful to introduce each customer.
These personnel are also the personnel selected by Chu Lixue from Xin Yaxuan, and they are very happy to work in these stores, because as long as they work in the store opened by Princess Chen, they do earn more money than in Xin Yaxuan. Because, in addition to the basic monthly silver, they also have the princess's additional reward, such a rich monthly silver is enough for their whole family to live a month without worrying about food and clothing.
However, someone was transferred from Xin Yaxuan to Chu Lixue's store, so Xin Yaxuan also needed to continue to recruit people, and many women went to Xin Yaxuan to find something to do, most of them were also in order to be valued by Princess Chen one day and transferred to one of the stores to work.
The business in Chu Lixue's store is very prosperous, and it has only been open for a few days, and many rich and noble ladies and even sons have come to Chu Lixue's custom consumption for you.
And on this day, a man wearing a royal blue moire tuanhua lake silk straight jacket walked in, and the man's handsome appearance attracted many customers to frequently turn around and peek, which also aroused Chu Lixue's idea.
