Chapter 64: Jinghe

Pei Baoer entered the palace with a strong battle, and unexpectedly, this "Hongmen Banquet" was as warm as a spring breeze, and it was not as terrible as she imagined.

Today, the Empress Dowager Qin not only summoned her, but also invited several of her concubines and sisters-in-law, and there were not many people at the banquet, that is, a few married princesses, and princesses. It's a small family banquet that only belongs to the female family. From another point of view, it can be regarded as the Empress Dowager Qin's justification of her bizarre "resurrection" princess.

But the Empress Dowager Qin seems to have changed as if she was a different person, and when she was the queen of the main palace, she was gone, but now she has taken the route of affinity. It's not easy to be mean when you speak, whether it's to Pei Baoer or the female relatives next to her, she always speaks just right, and from time to time she has to laugh at herself and throw a burden out to make people laugh.

For a while, there was laughter and laughter in Fengluan Palace, and the air was full of joy.

In addition to the eldest princess, Pei Baoer also met acquaintances who still have memories, such as Princess An, Princess Kang and others. Princess Ning met for the first time, she was still very young, she was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, she was young, she was not very beautiful, but she loved to laugh, she was energetic and could infect others with her smile.

Looking at Princess Ning, who was like flowers and bones, she suddenly remembered that Princess Rui, who was close to each other for several faces, was weak and dignified, and she was a person who rarely had a good impression among several concubines, but she was gone at a young age, and she couldn't help but sigh lightly.

When these people saw her, they couldn't help but ask a question or two curiously, Pei Baoer felt that this was also a good opportunity, so she simply told the manuscript that she had been thinking about for a long time after waking up.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's also bland, but it's just a coincidence, and ...... at the time"

She brushed aside the cliff accident and only said that it was an accident, after all, no one really knew if it was an accident or not, and she didn't bother to pursue it again.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Fortunately, God favored me, perhaps because he was grateful that I still had a little life in my womb, and couldn't bear to let me die, so he pulled me in the dark and didn't let me die under the cliff. It's a pity that I lost my ...... due to injury."

Okay, let's also mention the amnesia, it's too bloody, and it's a bit fake.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It was also a coincidence that the prince went out of Beijing on official business, and he happened to bump into it. That's it. ”

This can be regarded as a unified voice, and the subsequent spread will depend on these people, and she is impatient to explain it when she sees an individual.

No one knows what the Empress Dowager Qin is thinking in her heart, only these princesses and princesses, they all faced the first person in the gossip center today, and got a glimmer of news, so they were very excited.

After chatting about Pei Baoer, someone led the topic to the belated princess.

Princess Ning said: "I wanted to ask for a long time, my eldest sister's makeup today seems to be a little unusual, but she used Yuzhi Zhai's new gouache?" ”

The difference between the eldest princess today and the people present have already noticed it, but on the one hand, because of Pei Baoer's home field today, and on the other hand, they are afraid of hurting the face of the eldest princess, so they dare not bring it up directly. Unexpectedly, he was stabbed by the youngest Princess Ning.

Speaking of this eldest princess, she is also a legend who moves the capital.

Oh no, now it's time to call the eldest princess, a few days ago, the little emperor has issued an order to crown this aunt who has made great contributions to the country, and the Ministry of Rites just held the festival two days ago to canonize her.

The eldest princess is actually not very noble, and her biological mother is just a humble palace person, although she is pregnant after inheriting the favor, she was also forgotten by the first emperor. still took pity on her first, gave her the position of a talented person, and took care of her. Then, she gave birth to the eldest daughter of the first emperor. It's just that this little talent's life is not good, giving birth to a white and cute baby girl, but she was born with two big black moles on her face, which is very unsightly. So she was rejected by the first emperor, and she completely fell silent in the palace, and died of depression within a few years.

The eldest princess had a very hard time when she was a child, and after the first Yuan died of illness, the Qin family took the throne, and she had an even worse life. In that year, the king of the West Barbarians sued for peace, and sent an envoy to ask for marriage, and she, as the eldest daughter and the only princess of the right age, took the title of Jinghe Princess and married to the West Barbarians.

At that time, many people still felt that this princess had a flawed face, and she couldn't marry any young talents in the capital, and marrying the Western Barbarian King who was over half a hundred years old could be regarded as a "person" to make the best use of it.

It's just that I never expected that this princess, who looked gentle and amiable before leaving the cabinet, could have such courage to do such a feat of killing relatives in righteousness and sending people to their heads thousands of miles.

The most terrible thing is that if she puts this practice on the barbarian princess who married Dasheng as a concubine, it will be a heinous crime, and now many people in Xiban still miss the benefits of this concubine.

After all, the beheaded king of the Western Barbarians did not have a good reputation in the country, especially those serfs of low status, who had long been dissatisfied with the brutal rule of the Western Barbarian King and the elite class. In recent years, the king of the Western Barbarians has been dying, and the princes have been fighting, forming gangs, and even trying to collude with Beidi to engage in internal fighting, but it is the people below who suffer.

In contrast, Princess Jinghe, the concubine who is close to her, has an excellent reputation among the people.

In the past ten years, many Western barbarians who are accustomed to running around on horseback have been imperceptibly "tamed" into honest men and women weaving, and they can no longer raise their enthusiasm for war and plunder. Not to mention the cultural infiltration and invasion of those Jingyi subsets, many well-educated people and enthusiastic young people have a good impression of Dasheng, a country of etiquette, and a small number of people have come to participate in the transnational imperial examination in recent years.

During the civil strife in the Western Barbarians, Princess Jinghe sat on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, and when the princes were almost finished, they found an opportunity to kill them all, and put a crime on the old Western Barbarian King who was poisoned by a certain prince, and threw the pot of the tragic death of Emperor Dasheng in Ganzhou, the battle between Beidi and Dasheng and finally the people of the Western Barbarians to him, and finally, successfully pushed his own nine princes to the throne.

Although the new Western Barbarian King is only fourteen or fifteen years old, he has old and spicy methods, and he has gathered many large and small tribal forces in the early years. So, Princess Jinghe threw the responsibility of governing the country to her son, and Shi Shiran returned to Dasheng to "retire". Of course, the excuse on the surface is to mourn the first emperor who has been dead for several years and whose body is cold.

Pei Bao'er felt that if the new Xiban king didn't have a different heart, in a few decades, the Xiban could be directly included in the Dasheng territory.

However, others don't think as much as she thinks, and most people's perception of Jing and the eldest princess is mainly admiration and fear. For example, the dark spots and flaws on her face, when she was young, there were princesses and nobles who dared to joke about one or two, but now, no one dares to touch her moldy head.

Therefore, when Princess Ning mentioned the words, everyone had different faces, but they didn't dare to answer.

The role of the warm-up host played by the Empress Dowager Qin today could not be regarded as not seeing, so she had to take over with a smile.

"Not to mention that I haven't noticed it yet, Jinghe's complexion is much better today, much better than when he first came back. Presumably, there is no wind and sand invasion in the Western Barbarian Country, and the water and soil in the capital are supportive. Look at this little face, if she doesn't say it, who knows that her sons are married? ”

Originally, the topic should have ended here, Princess An was already making fun and disgusting to pat the Empress Dowager Qin's ass, saying that she was ageless, but the eldest princess Jinghe brought up the conversation again.

"The water and soil in the capital do support people, but to be honest, the two marks left on me by my deceased mother are not something that can be raised in a few days." She met everyone's eyes, smiled disappreciatively, and looked at Pei Bao'er meaningfully, as if signaling the latter or something.

Pei Baoer raised her eyebrows, and said in her heart, don't you want to advertise yourself?

Sure enoughβ€”

The eldest princess Jinghe touched her face and said with a light smile: "This is thanks to the box of makeup powder that Princess Regent gave me......"

Well, she was just out of curiosity, Pei Shu had a slight intersection with the eldest princess Jinghe who had not been out of the pavilion when she was a child, and the other party's identity was very noble, and she heard Song Yan say that Qi Heng valued her very much. So, a few days ago, she went to visit the eldest princess alone. At that time, it happened that her "free female workers" had made the first batch of rouge gouache according to her recipe, so she picked and chose a set to use as a gift. She didn't feel sorry for the eldest princess, but she just said some polite words to the point, but she didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to help her publicize. This favor is not small!

Pei Baoer was still thinking about how to repay the favor, but she was overwhelmed by a group of curious eyes.

Princess Ning looked yearning: "I have long heard that the third sister-in-law is a well-known talented woman in the capital, but I didn't expect to be good at these fat-adjusting and powdering skills!" ”

Princess An covered her mouth with her sleeves and said with a smirk: "Two days ago, I passed by Yuzhi Zhai, and they seemed to have opened a small fat powder shop next door, what is it called such as Yuge, but there are some fresh things to sell." Isn't the third sister-in-law a Buddha who borrowed flowers there? ”

Princess Kang is not dead now, and she is also very cheerful, so she has fun.

Everyone said a few words, and the eldest princess slowly revealed the mystery, saying that Pei Baoer made it herself.

Pei Bao'er had to smile and said: "It's just a small skill of carving insects, not enough to worry about." Incidentally, he said that his new shop was ready to open at the end of the month. It's just that I remembered what Princess An said about Ruyu Pavilion in my heart, and although I guessed a few points in my heart, I still had some reactions, and I was ready to go back to the house and let someone check it again.

Everyone was just going to join in the fun, and they looked down on Pei Baoer's self-made things a little, especially those who had bright skin and no blemishes.

But Princess An is different, she is two years older than Pei Bao'er, in recent years, her husband is equivalent to nothing, guarding the widows, orphans and widows can only rely on the Empress Dowager Qin to live, and she has to manage a large number of concubines and concubines in King An's mansion, exhausted, and her cheeks have already given birth to faint spots. Although she was disdainful on her lips, her heart was like scratching her brain.

You know, two black moles of such a size can be covered so well, those few little spots are nothing!

It just so happened that Pei Baoer brought her new product that was about to be released in the fat powder shop, and she was going to give some gifts to the Empress Dowager Qin, but she didn't expect so many people to come, and she was mentioned by the eldest princess Jinghe, so she simply came to scatter flowers. Those present have a share, either to get the spot, or to get the promise of tomorrow's door-to-door delivery.

Princess Ning was young and had the most curiosity, so she happened to get a box of foundation, so she rolled up her sleeves on the spot and experimented with a small mole on her forearm.

Sure enough, it worked very well.

Princess An's eyes were different when she looked at Pei Bao'er.
