Adore Trick of Beauty

For a long time? She raised her head and fixed his deep eyes, which had a heart-pounding brilliance. This was the first time she heard his rare words of promise like this.

Nie Wushuang was in a trance for a while, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. With a sweet smile, he leaned on Xiao Fengming's heart and said slowly: Yes, for a long time...

Sweet words are always pleasant and refreshing. Nie Wushuang played the piano with a smile, staring firmly at Xiao Fengming with a pair of beautiful eyes, which seemed to have a hazy affection in them, almost intoxicated.

Xiao Fengming sat for a while, and was planning to stay for dinner when the servant from the imperial study came to invite him, saying that a minister came to ask for an appointment. He had no choice but to leave the Eternal Huadian, but he also promised to come at night.

Nie Wushuang sent him away respectfully with a smile, Yang Zhi stepped forward, helped her up, looked at her plain clothes, and suddenly said: These days, the empress seems to like to wear elegant palace clothes, and she wants the servants to go down to the Shangfu Bureau again. How many sets of fashionable plain clothes should you make for your empress?

Nie Wushuang ordered the maid to take down the qin and incense burner in the pavilion, and when she heard the words, she turned her head and smiled slightly: No need, these are enough for my palace. If you wear them for too long, the emperor will get bored after seeing too much.

Yang Zhi suddenly realized: The empress is dressing herself up for the emperor? Feng

Nie Wushuang helped the crow's crow-like temples, with a smile that was not a smile: Of course that is the case, otherwise, I don't want to be forgotten by the emperor just like this before I see the beautiful girl who has just entered the palace. .”

After she finished speaking, she walked towards the hall softly, and said: The emperor is coming tonight, please trouble Eunuch Yang.

...

The matter of drafting girls was proceeding in an orderly manner. The court and the harem each went their own way and showed their talents. The final roster was finalized and presented to the emperor and empress step by step.

When Nie Wushuang went to visit the empress several mornings, he could hear the concubine whispering beside her, discussing which family's beautiful girls are talented, and which family's daughters are good-looking... The topics that are tireless are always the best and most enthusiastic topics of conversation.

On this day, she sat at the lower head of Concubine Jing, and Concubine Shu also came to the Laiyi Palace today to pay her respects to the empress: it is better to be courteous when you ask for it.

Three of the four concubines came, Concubine De had been out of favor for a long time, she was under house arrest in her own palace, so naturally she would not come. The concubines below looked at the three of them from time to time, guessing the secret of this draft.

Concubine Jing may be aware of those probing gazes, so she covered half of her face with a fan, turned her head to Nie Wushuang and said, Now let's see how the queen presides over this draft. Good looks and talent, I'm afraid it's even more difficult to choose.

Nie Wushuang was drinking tea with his head down, when he heard that he wiped the tea stains from his lips with a handkerchief, he said with a low smile, That's right, the Empress may also have a headache.

The two were whispering, the queen came out with the support of the female officer, she was wearing a big red phoenix suit today, the bright golden phoenix was fluttering its wings on the dress, looking extraordinarily graceful and luxurious.

There was a thick layer of makeup on her face, which was too white, but such a pale color could not hide the tiredness in her eyes. It seems that this time she also spent a lot of thought.

The concubines hurriedly knelt down and called out to Qiansui three times. The queen sat down slowly, looked around, and said with a smile: Why are there so many people today? I don't have any rewards from this palace.

Such jokes were rarely uttered by the empress, and all the concubines covered their mouths and laughed. The queen also smiled and said: Okay, I know what you're thinking. This time the roster for the spring election has been finalized. After this time, I will order the female officer to submit it to the Ministry of Rites, and let the Ministry of Rites work hard to complete it. In addition, this time follow the old rules. , I will preside over the draft, and Concubine Shu, Concubine Jing, and Concubine Jing will help me make the selection.

The empress paused as she spoke, and looked at Nie Wushuang: Concubine Xian also discussed with her. Concubine De is not in good health, so she will not participate in the selection of beautiful girls. After the decision of the third concubine, the palace and the emperor will confer awards.

The queen made a decision on this year's draft procedure. Except for Nie Wushuang, Concubine Shu and Concubine Jing all looked clear, and Nie Wushuang quickly stepped forward and knelt in front of the queen to plead: The empress loves you, but the concubine may not be able to do so. competent.

The queen smiled slightly: Now you are also one of the four concubines, so you should share some of it for me.

She said that to prevent her from refusing. Nie Wushuang could only accept it. The queen glanced at the concubines below, and said with a smile: The newcomer enters the palace, you are all sisters, you are not allowed to bully the newcomer, you know?

All the concubines had different expressions on their faces, but they all said respectfully that they had received the decree.

After paying his respects, Nie Wushuang was about to leave when Qiu Meng, the palace maid next to the empress, quietly stepped forward, Mrs. Xianfei, the empress is here to invite you.

Nie Wushuang was slightly surprised, and then followed Qiu Meng back to the Queen's bedroom. In the dormitory hall, there is burning fragrance of agarwood that was brought in as a tribute, which is faint and refreshing. The queen was leaning on the beauty couch, and a court lady was removing the heavy phoenix crown and hairpin from her head.

The queen closed her eyes and let the maid comb her long hair, she seemed to be asleep. Nie Wushuang quietly stood aside, waiting for the queen to wake up.

The palace lady held an ivory jade comb and combed it slowly, with gentle and slow movements. Nie Wushuang looked up and saw that the queen's hair was quite black, but not as thick as usual. Since she doesn't have much hair, how can she comb it into various phoenix buns. Her eyes flickered slightly, and she saw a bunch of braided wigs beside the dressing table.

It turns out that among the noble ladies of Yingguo, it is fashionable to wrap wigs in their buns to make their hair look thicker and more beautiful. It seems that the queen also pays great attention to her appearance.

The maid combed the queen's hair, and said respectfully: Your Majesty, comb it. As she spoke, she moved her hand slightly,

The clumps of hair combed with the comb were quickly stuffed into her sleeves. Her movements were so fast that if Nie Wushuang hadn't noticed her inadvertently, she wouldn't have noticed it at all.

The queen lost her hair so badly? ! Nie Wushuang's beautiful eyes flashed involuntarily, and she saw the palace maid backed out quietly with her head lowered just now.

The queen opened her eyes and saw Nie Wushuang coming, she said with a smile: Sister Xianfei is here? Sit down.

After Nie Wushuang thanked her, she sat down. She looked at the queen's face and asked tentatively, The queen's face is not good these days, is it because she is overthinking?

The queen touched her cheek and sighed: Why don't you worry, one draft will almost cost half of my life.
