Datang: My bedroom is the same as Changle's boudoir

Chapter 82 Did the Tang Dynasty really regard fat as beauty?

"How beautiful is Li Longji's concubine to make him indulge in the harem?"

Women's attention is always so novel. Mo Wuhen thought that Li Lizhi would condemn Li Longji's behavior, but Li Lizhi paid more attention to how beautiful Concubine Yang Gui was.

"I don't know, I haven't seen her before, but it seems that she was originally called Yang Yu, and then in order to honor her in the palace, the word Huan was added after it, and Yang Yuhuan was her name in the palace."

"Huan? Doesn't this mean fat in general?"

"That's right, that's the literal meaning, Li Longji likes this!"

"Why does an emperor not like milky, beautiful, slender beauties, but prefer fat girls?"

In the early Tang Dynasty, people's aesthetics still regarded thinness as beauty.The most classic example is the famous painting "Pedestrian Figure".

There are nine beauties looking up at Li Shimin while walking, and these nine women are all thin in terms of face shape and body width, and they look very skinny, and the facial features are naturally recognized by most people at the time Works represent a certain social aesthetic direction.

And looking at the historical records of Wu Zetian's appearance, her face shape is the kind with clear lines, dignified and elegant, not a round face, and her figure is also slender.

"It's because of the times, and it is said that Yang Yuhuan is the plump type, not the big fat girl you think."

Mo Wuhen thought for a while, and expressed his opinion.

"The specific reason should be that the Tang Dynasty's economic development was very good at that time, and people's living standards were also improved. It was known as the prosperous age of Kaiyuan, so fat was regarded as a blessing and a beauty."

"Furthermore, it may have something to do with Xiao Wuzhao!"

"What does it have to do with Xiao Wuzhao?"

"It is said that Xiao Wuzhao's future daughter, Princess Taiping, is especially loved by Xiao Wuzhao, so she eats very well every day, which makes her face a little big and her figure a little bit like that!"

"The emperor likes this kind of thing. Of course, it will drive the officials to like it. The officials also like it. Aren't the people at the bottom also infected? It's settled. In Li Longji's era, they like fat people."

"A person like you couldn't be called a beautiful woman in that era."

"Ah? That's too bad, so, Wuhen, I want to make you poor!"

"Whee!"

Li Lizhi is not greedy, but just wants to become plump. No matter in which era of Datang, she must be a beauty.

"Then eat some bread first, so you won't be hungry for a while!"

Although there is a staff meal after the morning morning, the taste must be mediocre, and as Li Lizhi, she definitely cannot stay there.

While waiting for the early court, you must not eat, otherwise you may be given a visit by the censor.

It is said that there was an official in the Tang Dynasty who was forced to demote because he was found by the censor for eating cakes while waiting for the emperor at the gate of the Taiji Palace.

...

In front of Tai Chi Palace.

"Brother Mo? Princess Changle?"

As soon as the two of them arrived at the gate of Tai Chi Palace, Cheng Yaojin spotted them and moved forward to say hello.

"I heard that you were hit by a horse yesterday, is there anything wrong?"

"Look, I can come to court now, I must be fine!"

"Look at me for being stupid, haha, but you don't have an official position, so why did you come to court?"

"Brother Cheng, to tell you the truth, we don't know why, the most likely thing is to settle on my marriage with Lizhi."

"That's pretty good, remember to invite me to a wedding banquet!"

Cheng Yaojin patted Mo Wuhen's back. His loud voice also attracted Changsun Wuji and other people who were acquainted with Mo Wuhen.

Everyone began to exchange pleasantries, waiting quietly for Li Shimin to appear on the stage.

"Have you heard, the Cui family was drowned yesterday, and many people died, even Mrs. Cui did not survive!"

Hearing Cheng Yaojin suddenly mentioned this matter, Mo Wuhen also became interested.

The city of Chang'an is just that big, and an event as big as the Cui family's can basically spread throughout Chang'an in one night.

"Really, that's great...I'm so sad!"

Changsun Wuji almost jumped up happily, but he endured it when he saw someone passing by.

"That's right. Didn't you see that some officials who are friends with the Cui family didn't come today? I heard that there were heavy casualties."

"Brother Mo, if you talk about it, you don't know who it is. This is simply revenge for you!"

All the princes of the state are smart people. Once they heard about the attack on Mo Wuhen, they knew that it was the aristocratic family.

Changsun Wuji had a guess that this matter might have something to do with Mo Wuhen, but he was not sure, so he asked insincerely.

"I think God has eyes! And isn't this good for Brother Changsun's family? At least it won't be so difficult to sell food!"

Of course, Mo Wuhen wouldn't reveal himself. Although the relationship between the two of them is so good now, who knows if they will turn around and sell him.

Moreover, this is not something to show off, so he kicked the ball back.

"The censor is here, hurry up and stand in line, don't wait to be bitten by these mad dogs!"

Seeing the censor coming, Fang Xuanling also reminded everyone to stand up quickly, after all, this group of censors are fearless, not to mention them, even Li Shimin will not be spared if they are ruthless.

Everyone who was around Mo Wuhen left in a flash, leaving only Mo Wuhen and Li Lizhi in place, messed up in the wind.

It was also Mo Wuhen's first time to go to court, so he had no experience and didn't know where he should stand.

"Come, come!"

Mo Wuhen saw his grandson Wuji beckoning them both over.

"You two must be the main event today, so stand next to me first!"

Changsun Wuji deserves to be Li Shimin's uncle, he must know Li Shimin very well, seeing that even the princess is going to court, he must be the two of the main content today.

Moreover, although he didn't say that he did it, just now when Changsun Wuji observed Mo Wuhen's expression, it was obviously a little unnatural.

Then he decided in his heart that there was a high probability that Mo Wuhen built the Cui family yesterday. To prevent Mo Wuhen from setting his house on fire if he was unhappy, of course he had to curry favor first.

The ringing of the bell at the gate of Tai Chi Hall also heralded Li Shimin's imminent arrival.

Following Wang De's words: "Your Majesty is here!"

I saw Li Shimin wearing a yellow dragon robe and riding a pink bicycle, coming towards him.
