The Book of Han records that Li Yannian, the male favorite of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, once sang a song in the banquet of Emperor Wu, with a lingering melody and lyrics: "There is a beautiful woman in the north, peerless and independent, one cares about the city, and then the country." Rather than know the city and the country, the beauty is hard to get! ”

After hearing this, Emperor Wu of Han sighed and said, "Good song! Good words! But is there really such a beautiful woman in the world? So Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's sister Princess Pingyang smiled and took the opportunity to say: "The emperor doesn't have to be sad, that person is far away in front of him, and there is one in our capital ready-made, as far as I know, Li Yannian's sister is such a beautiful woman!" ”

So Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty took advantage of the wine to summon Li Yannian's sister, and not long after, a young woman who had been carefully dressed up by Princess Pingyang and Li Yannian in advance walked over from the end of the hall. Dressed in snow-forged clothes, a horse with long black forged hair, and a pair of jade feet, Ying Ying bowed down to His Highness. Emperor Wu of Han was drunk and hazy, and only felt that the woman was floating over like a fairy, so he asked her to raise her head.

The woman slowly raised her head, and when she ascended the hall, all the eyes fell on her face, the dishes of the people who picked up the dishes fell on the table, the wine of the drinkers poured on the collars, the fingers of the people who covered their faces with their sleeves and secretly picked their nostrils stopped, and the fingers of the musicians playing music on both sides of the hall also stopped, leaving an end note of "ding-" in the room that suddenly became silent.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has many beauties in his harem, how beautiful his appearance is, how detailed his facial features are, and how enchanting his body is, but there is no such a woman who takes jade as his bone, ice and snow as his skin, and autumn water as his posture. Although her appearance is superior, but it will not compare the beauties of the entire harem at once, the most amazing thing is that her skin is softer than the bright moon in the sky, and it is also bright, it is really scorching, and her complexion is natural. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was shocked at first sight, and immediately canonized this woman as Mrs. Li. Mrs. Li was fortunate to be in front of the emperor, her appearance did not change for 16 years, and she was favored for 16 years.

It is said that as long as she is not driving, she always applies a yellow-brown medicinal powder on her face to maintain her face, so her face has not had any blemishes for many years, and her ice skin is better than that of a girl. Later, when she was critically ill, she called her most beloved niece Li Xiangguo to the bed and told her the prescription, and said that this medicine powder is called "Ying Ying Powder", which is the prescription recorded on a piece of silk that fell out of it when she occasionally read ancient books when she was a child, and this medicine powder can be used to beauty and moisturize the face all year round, and remove dullness and spots on the skin.

Xiangguo went home and grabbed the medicine according to the prescription, smeared it on his face after grinding it into fine powder, took a look at it in the mirror, and screamed, ah! Who is the yellow-faced woman in the mirror? Can medicinal powders really be beautiful? Auntie didn't lie to herself, did she? Xiangguo reluctantly smeared the letter suspiciously for half a month, applying it to eating, sleeping, and embroidering, and other unsuspecting boudoir sisters laughed at her for being old and decrepit, and she became a yellow-faced woman before she got married. Angry, Xiangguo went back to the room to wash her face, and then took a look in the mirror, and found that her facial skin had not changed at all, and the original spots were still spotted. She suddenly felt that her aunt must have become confused before she died, and she was talking nonsense to herself! Throw the prescription aside and ignore it.

A few years later, one of Mrs. Li's brothers raped the harem and was severely reprimanded by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the other brother had a bolder appetite and fatter sons, and even colluded with Prime Minister Liu Quchao and the Huns to conspire to promote Mrs. Li's son Liu Ji as the crown prince. After the incident, all of Mrs. Li's relatives were affected, and the Li Mansion where Xiangguo lived was also confiscated, and the prescription recorded on the handkerchief was originally sandwiched in Xiangguo's dowry box, but it was blown to the ground by the wind during transportation. The little eunuch who carried it didn't care, stepped on it with one foot, and followed the carrying team in front, and the little eunuch in the back also followed suit, stepping on one foot and then chasing the person in front.

After the crowd dispersed, a ragged old man bent forward and picked it up, patted the dust on it and put it into his arms, and said with a smile: "Yingying powder, Yingying powder, since the world does not know the treasure, causing the pearl to be covered with dust and the beautiful jade to fall into the mud, then you better go back to me and sleep!" ”

This story was told to He Angelica by Bai Yangbai in the previous life, according to him, that old Tao is his own master's and master's

Bai Yangbai was more than twenty years older than He Angelica, but his appearance looked as young as He Angelica's younger brother, he walked to the table with a smile, wrote down an ink-drenched prescription, generously handed it to He Angelica, and told her with a smile that although the prescription of Zhuyan Tangyu was his top secret and could only be passed on to his wife and daughter, but the prescription of Yingying powder could make an exception to tell her about this outsider. He added that if she wanted to get more prescriptions, she would have to take his last name.

He Angelica frowned in embarrassment and replied, it is not difficult to worship him as a father-in-law, but his surname and first name are recorded on the genealogy of the Luo family, how easy is it to change it? Bai Angelica, Bai Angelica, it sounds very strange.

Bai Yangbai shrewdly shook her finger and told her that there was no need to change the name on the family tree, she only needed to go to the second house on the left hand side of the household registration department of the government, and then add the word "Bai" before her original name. Don't hesitate any longer, he does what he says, never breaks his word and gets fat, if she doesn't believe it, they can hand over the roster with one hand and the prescription of Zhuyan soup bath with the other, and also come with a bottle of Zhuyan perfume, a Zhuyan point hairpin, and a set of Zhuyan massage services.

He Angelica listened stupidly, and then remembered that the "second house on the left hand side of the household registration department" was the house, and suddenly rolled his eyes angrily and refused, no, no, he is now "Zhu He Angelica", wouldn't it become "Zhu Lily Angelica" if he added another word?

She picked up the prescription and studied it carefully, most of the medicinal materials on it are decent skin whitening herbs, such as Baiji, Atractylodes, Angelica Angelica and other medicinal materials, just rummage through a few medical books and find a large stack of similar prescriptions, I can't see anything rare and special.

Looking at it again, He Angelica is even more confused, Du Zhong? Isn't it used to nourish the liver and kidneys, strengthen muscles and bones, and stabilize the fetus? This is the first time I've heard that it can be applied externally!

Shi Wei? Caryophyllus? They all clear the lungs and fire, and the water is diuretic. Caryophyllus can also cure menstrual cramps......

Chuanbai? Kawatani? Chuanxiong?

He Angelica trembled with anger, threw the prescription on that hateful smiling face, and shouted, "You fool me! Isn't this the genealogy of the Luo family? Bai Ji, Bai Zhu and Bai Zhi are the names of my second cousin and distant cousin, Du Zhong is my maternal grandfather, Shi Wei Shizhu is my cousin, Chuan Bai Chuan Gu is my uncle, and Chuan Xiong is my mother! Phew, what Mrs. Lee's pink? Bai Yangbai, you old liar god! ”

"Wronged, wronged, how do my old man know what the name of the ghost is in your family?" Bai Yangbai covered his face and pretended to cry, "No matter how powerful and dog-like your Luo family is in Yangzhou, I haven't heard of it here in our Daning Mansion!" Your family members are lazy in choosing their own names, grabbing a handful of medicinal herbs indiscriminately, and giving them any ghost names when they touch them, and they are actually embarrassed to write them into the family tree! You will know if my Yingying powder is true or false, I am the successor of Wuyi Mountain Da Guomen, and Da Guo Men has a long history of thousands of years is well known to the world, this prescription is really my Tai Master's Tai Master...... The Master of Tai handed down! Is my old man still deceiving you of a girl? With that, he handed the prescription back to He Angelica.

He Angelica pouted and pointed out: "Uncle Bai, your master's master said four more than just now. ”

Bai Yangbai glared: "Girl, you have too high requirements for the old man, and I also heard it from my master, didn't I tell you, he stammered." ”

So, with a skeptical attitude and the spirit of exploration of seeking knowledge and verification, He Angelica began to use this "Yingying powder", and then combined with the secret "Zhuyan Tang Bath" of Bai Yangbai once every ten days, his skin is really getting whiter and tender day by day.

At first, she still felt that the prescription of Yingying powder might be fake, and the anti-aging soup bath was the real good medicine, because she applied Yingying powder to her face every day before going to bed, and when she got up early and washed her face to look in the mirror, her facial skin did not improve significantly. And every time she goes to Bai Yangbai's house to soak in the rejuvenating soup bath, when she comes out, her skin is brighter than snow, so soft that she seems to be able to pinch out water, and the effect is better every time. Therefore, although she still insists on using Yingying powder, the main purpose is to prove that this medicine is fake, to prove that Bai Yangbai is an old liar, and then use this as a threat to cheat the real good prescription.

But Bai Yangbai is a shrewd old fox, He Angelica in the previous life is much more tender than him, and he has not been able to get a prescription for more than four years, but has been tricked by Bai Yangbai.

In the fifth year, He Angelica was pregnant with Zhu Quan's child, and Bai Yangbai told her that the soup bath was forbidden for pregnant women, and she would no longer be able to use the soup bath in the future, and she would not use it to find him. He Angelica asked him, is it impossible for pregnant women to use Yingying powder? Bai Yangbai said that it could be used. As a result, He Angelica, who no longer bathed in the soup, used Yingying powder alone for nearly a year. This time she saw a real effect, the skin on the face is getting tighter and more delicate, and it can also play a good role in reducing wrinkles when applied to the lower abdomen with stretch marks.

In the past, it was because the effect of the soup bath was too good that the effect of Yingying powder was compared, and she didn't believe in Bai Yangbai's character from the beginning, so she always regarded it as a fake medicine. In all fairness, Yingying powder is much easier to use than many palace beauty recipes that are ten times the price of gold, and after years of use, it can really achieve the miraculous effect of youth, and even like Mrs. Li, her appearance has not changed for sixteen years.

But most women are greedy animals, no matter how beautiful they are, they are not enough. After giving birth to his daughter, He Angelica was worried about the Zhuyan soup bath again, so he went to Bai Yangbai's house to find him. After knocking for a long time, no one opened the door, so she pushed the door in, and walked around the huge house, but there was no one empty, looking at the thickness of the dust on the table and the density of the cobwebs on the beams, it should have been more than a year without a habit. It's strange, the old liar used to go out to travel, and there were still a lot of people living in the house, could it be that the old liar didn't tell himself when he moved?

He Angelica carefully searched the pharmacy, study and bath room, but there was nothing like a pharmacy or medicinal herbs, so he had to leave disappointed. Later, she contacted him many times through special contact channels, but only received a letter from him, and busily opened the envelope to see, but there was only a blank piece of paper and a dried mulberry leaf, I don't know what he was selling. Could it be some secret letter that hides a mystery? Afraid that the precious anti-aging prescription will be seen by others?

Using various methods of fire roasting and soaking, He Angelica finally determined that the blank paper was really a blank paper, and immediately ran to Bai Yangbai's house in anger and smashed it, and finally made himself disgraced and ate a mouthful of dust. Just as she was about to leave, she was surprised to notice someone peeking at her through the gap in the corner door, so she immediately turned her head and met a pair of bright eyes, but the gaze only stayed for a moment before disappearing. Shocked, she kicked the door open with a loud shout, and behind it was an empty abandoned hut where anyone was there.

Until she was killed by Concubine Zhou and the Luo family, she never saw Bai Yangbai again.
