Chapter 033: Jun Eyebrows
"The wing room on the left side of the apse is where the prince plays on weekdays, I have been there twice, and then it is inconvenient for the princess to enter the apse, and it has become a place for male guests to be grounded." Yi Chenjing was pacing in the room, and there was a faint sound of rustling clothes in the compartment.
Under Yi Chenjing's explanation, Bai Qige quickly understood his intentions.
It is not difficult to enter the prince's East Palace, but it is impossible for Yi Chenjing, who is a man, to enter the apse of the East Palace where the female dependents live, after all, it is where the princess lives, except for the eunuch, who cannot discuss gender, only the prince himself can enter, so Yi Chenjing asked Bai Qige to pretend to be drunk and wait for the opportunity to act. The place where Yi Chenjing asked her to go was the place where the prince fell in love with the maids and concubines before he set up a concubine, and the purpose of going was to determine one thing.
"The prince had an affair with a harem concubine?" The bead curtain made a crisp collision sound, and a beautiful but not glamorous slender figure bypassed the screen and lifted the curtain from the compartment to enter, and the gorgeous dress swayed, making her fair face more and more extravagant.
Yi Chenjing stopped and was slightly stunned, and the shock in his eyes was impressive: "Why didn't I know you still had such a demeanor before?" ”
"Who knows what you're using your eyes for." The new clothes were still a little uncomfortable on the body, Bai Qige awkwardly tied the cumbersome waist palace silk repeatedly, and didn't even look at the man who gave praise, "How many eyes and ears do you have in the East Palace?" Even people don't let go of other people's flowers and grass, and he is really tired of what the prince does. ”
But Bai Qige will not let go of any opportunity to satirize Yi Chenjing, after a long time, Yi Chenjing has also changed from being speechless and cold-eyed to flamboyant and indifferent, and he can fight back more or less.
"Which prince doesn't have a group of people outside the palace watching? Believe it or not, how many times have you slept and they have all been clear? Yi Chenjing walked up to Bai Qige, and took the messy and tangled palace silk in her hand very naturally, and tied a beautiful knot with her slender fingers with a few random strokes, "This is the palace, do you think you are still in Zhaoguo-"
At the mention of Zhaoguo, the eyes of the two of them dimmed together.
I don't want to forget and can't forget what happened, about Hongxuan's death, about the confusing truth, even if the relationship between the two is getting better day by day, it is still difficult to escape from the haze of the past.
"I'll do my best, and I won't guarantee if I can't find it." Bai Qige was the first to break the silence, curling her long hair in front of the bronze mirror, and the two red coral earrings on her earlobes were bright and shiny, lining her slender neck with snow-white and slender.
In all fairness, if it weren't for the ruined appearance, Bai Qige's appearance would not be ugly, although she was not as charming or charming or delicate, it was more beautiful than the rumored Princess Hongxuan's national appearance, but it would not be to the point where she felt bored when she saw it.
Yi Chenjing frowned slightly after taking a closer look, raised Bai Qige's chin and looked displeased: "Rouge Water Rice Fen Su Yan and Jin Zhaoyi have prepared for you, why don't you use it?" I went to the banquet with no face to the sky, and I don't know how harsh I treat you. There's still time to retouch, so that people can see at a glance that you are not a maid. ”
Isn't it harsh? Bai Qige's expression was calm, and his answer was crisp and neat.
"No, it won't."
“…… How many things do you know how a woman should know? After being stunned for a moment, Yi Chenjing smiled bitterly, "The female celebrity said no, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting said no, the poems and songs can't, and they can't even dress themselves, even if they lose their memories, they shouldn't forget all about it, right?" Keeping you by your side feels like having an extra military advisor, and your advice is good, but you can't take it when you go to and from the hall. ”
"Anyway, what you need is a strategist instead of a pillow person, if you need to save face, there is Sister Su Yan, you are the one who takes advantage of it, and you are the one who complains, be careful that greed is not enough to attract resentment."
Bai Qige was indifferent to Yi Chenjing's straightforward opinion, she was not a person who liked makeup and dressing up, and she hadn't even touched those rouge water and rice points, so she couldn't go to school because he suddenly wanted to participate in a banquet, right?
Women are the ones who please themselves, and if they learn it, who can they show it?
Yi Chenjing pondered for a long time, and suddenly pulled Bai Qige into the inner room, rummaging through the drawer of the dresser with one hand, and finally found a black and gray hard lump with the thickness of a little finger and held it in front of Bai Qige.
"What is this?" Bai Qige asked.
"I don't even know what my own stuff is." Yi Chenjing shook her head helplessly, raised her hand to hold her chin, "This is the eyebrow stone, do you see which woman goes out to meet people with plain eyebrows like you?" Look up and look at me. ”
"A dignified prince acting as a maid?" Bai Qige almost couldn't hear it, and according to Yi Chenjing's words, she raised her face and looked at him, watching him carefully pinch the eyebrow stone and draw it on her face.
Unexpectedly, Yi Chenjing, who is resolute in doing things, also has such a delicate side, no wonder Su Yan is still dead set on him even though he has never accepted favor. Women are the most invincible to men's gentleness, just like Yi Chenxuan's considerate care for her, but no matter how hard his heart is, knowing that he is scheming, Bai Qige can't get tired of him in the end.
Full of anticipation until Yi Chenjing's long breath was completed, Bai Qige looked halfway into the mirror, and a gentle smile that had just appeared on the corner of his lips froze.
"Yi Chenjing, have you ever seen a woman whose eyebrows are about to be connected together?!"
"Strange thing, usually I draw some topographic drawings with good brushwork, why can't I draw these two eyebrows?" Yi Chenjing crossed his arms and was puzzled.
The peaceful state of mind collapsed in an instant, and a wave of heat rushed straight to his head, Bai Qige gritted his teeth and snatched the eyebrow stone in Yi Chenjing's hand, and did not hesitate to make a stroke at that handsome face. Yi Chenjing was immersed in the technical problems related to the thrush and didn't have time to react, and was caught off guard by the successful sneak attack, from the cheekbones to the jaw, a long black ink mark was clear and thick, which showed how hard Bai Qige was working.
"What are you mad about?!"
"If you don't know how to draw, don't move, why do you owe so much?!"
"What's wrong, what's wrong? What happened? A stack of inquiries was urgent, and outside the door, Yu Che heard the fierce argument between the two in the house, and thought that there was another quarrel, so he rushed in and planned to desperately solve the siege, but he didn't want to lift the bead curtain but saw Yi Chenjing and Bai Qige bowing their heads and looking up, looking at each other angrily. Yu Che was just about to step forward, when the two of them heard the call and turned their heads at the same time, the figure of the young maid was so stiffly frozen.
After a while, the irrepressible laughter spread throughout the Huixi Residence, and Yu Che leaned back and forth with laughter, tears falling to the ground in circles.
In the end, it was Yu Che who skillfully put on Bai Qige's makeup, Emei swept lightly, and the fat and rice were lightly pounced, which was neither enchanting nor deflated, which made Yi Chenjing feel a little satisfied, and by the way, accepted Bai Qige's constant sarcasm with anger.
The easy episode came to an end, and he was about to rush to the East Palace to attend the banquet, and after leaving the door of the Huixi Residence, Yi Chenjing immediately took off his gentle breath and put on a cautious and vigilant body.
Bai Qige sighed secretly, if he goes on like this, he will have a split personality after all.
The dust Xuan is in the southwest corner of the palace, there is still some distance from the east palace, the steward eunuch has already waited outside with a sedan chair, and Su Yan has made an appointment with Jin Zhaoyi to leave first. According to the rules, the prince and the princess should go in the same sedan chair, and if Bai Qige is a hundred unwilling, he still has to sit next to Yi Chenjing in the sedan chair, and if he doesn't want to look at him, he can only pick up the curtain and look out of the sedan chair.
"Who is that man? Too beautiful to be a man. Bai Qige suddenly asked.
Looking in the direction she was pointing, Yi Chenjing raised his eyebrows slightly: "Su Jinyan, the most famous doorman in the Yaoguan Palace." It is rumored that he became Yi Chenxuan's guest not because of how smart he is, but because the face of the seductive woman is too eye-catching - you have to be careful when you meet this person, he is not as simple as the rumors say. ”
Bai Qige didn't continue to ask, she didn't want to get involved in the endless conspiracy trap, she could give advice to Yi Chenjing on strategy and tactics, and it was better to stay away from the power struggle.
If you can dodge it.
When there was still some distance from the East Palace, Yi Chenjing insisted on walking over, and his previous cautious vigilance turned into casual and exaggerated, sometimes shouting loudly, sometimes telling vulgar jokes to other princes he met on the road, looking like a vulgar person with no ambition and no education.
Bai Qige knew that he was deliberately hiding his light.
As we all know, the Seven Princes did not have the support of their close relatives in the previous dynasty, and the concubines in the harem came out of the cold palace with their son's military exploits, not to mention the status and power, even the banquet where the other three second-rank concubines were present tonight did not have the position of concubines. Yi Chenjing has the ability to swallow mountains and rivers and look at Kyushu, but he has to rein in his edge, only patience, only Taoguang Yanghui strengthens his strength, and he can soar into the sky and try the sword in the world.
Since ancient times, the emperor's industry has had many troubles, and Yu Zhaoguo's proton has given Yi Chenjing a mature heart and experience far beyond his peers, steady and careful, able to endure what ordinary people cannot, compared to those princes who grew up in the rich and gentle township since childhood, he is more than a star and a half stronger. Bai Qige did not deny that in her eyes, the position of Emperor Yao should belong to Yi Chenjing, although she hoped that Yi Chenxuan would not become a victim in this closed frontier road and imperial map.
"What a coincidence, the Fifth Emperor Brother has just arrived?" The irreverent greeting interrupted Bai Qige's thoughts, raised his head, and the eyes of Yi Chenxuan, the fifth prince in front of him, who were dressed in a simple and elegant manner, were like water, and something seemed to be surging the moment they met their eyes.
Coincidentally, when taking the sedan chair, the distance between the front and back is not far, she and Yi Chenjing have walked for two pillars of incense, how can Yi Chenxuan, who has been on the sedan chair, have just arrived?
Bai Qige lowered his head and didn't look at Yi Chenxuan, and he had already scolded Yi Chenjing in his heart. has already explained that the secret attack was not Yi Chenxuan's doing, why is he still so cold and stubborn and doesn't have a good tone? Originally, it was already very embarrassing to meet Yi Chenxuan again after that incident, and it was difficult to have him staring lukewarmly by his side, and it became difficult to say hello normally.
Yi Chenxuan was natural, and his smile was still gentle: "After a while, there were too many people inside, so I came outside to take a breath......
Before he finished speaking, the smile gradually changed its taste, as if it was bitter and helpless.
It's not just intentional or unintentional, in front of everyone's eyes, Yi Chenjing wrapped his arms around Bai Qige's waist without changing his face, and with a little force, the thin woman was close to his side.
