The Lord is Addicted in Infrastructure

The perfume bottle that Xia Zuoyi took along the way was finally taken away by Saigalot.

as an exchange gift.

Saigalot gave him a low-key and gorgeous rose ring carved from expensive rubies. The ring was made of silver in the shape of thorns, which formed a circle and intertwined around the rose.

This is the pattern of the Designia family crest again, and he was given a chest ornament of the same value and similar value before.

Did His Majesty the Pope fall into a rosebush? !

Xia Zuoyi took the ring and it fit right on the index finger of her right hand.

He talked with Saigalot for almost an hourglass before leaving downstairs, and Saigalote saw him off at the door.

Xia Zuoyi originally planned to send someone to inquire about the residence of the Marquis of Laurie, but he did not expect that after returning to the Duke's mansion, the Marquis of Laurie would send someone to send a greeting card first.

——He hopes to meet Xia Zuoyi, and the location is also decided by Xia Zuoyi.

After thinking about it for a while, Xia Zuoyi agreed. The meeting place was set on a ship docked at the port. Walker picked him up in person and brought him into the cabin.

Darnell took off his hat as soon as he walked in, his blond hair was combed back, his face was handsome, he smiled friendlyly at Xia Zuoyi: "I thought you would refuse to meet me."

Xia Zuoyi: "I happen to have something to talk to you about, Lord Laurie."

Darnell didn't expect that the other party would have something to talk to him about.

A lot of thoughts flashed through his mind, and he sat on the chair with a normal expression: "The lord should be able to guess a thing or two about the purpose of my coming here, but I don't know if the lord will have anything to talk to me about?"

Xia Zuoyi: "Why don't you tell me why the Marquis Laurie wants to meet me?"

Darnell: "Naturally because of the secret recipe of white sugar."

"The lord is a smart man. I never beat around the bush when talking to smart people. In the Anas Empire, I can be the lord's ally, and there is only one requirement."

"—that is, that the secret recipe for making sugar will not be taken away by the king and his party."

"I agree that this formula has been kept in your hands, and this is something you already have, and should not be robbed by others."

Xia Zuoyi was a little surprised: "Aren't you moved?"

Darnell: "Thrilling, but restrained."

"Because for me, some things and things are far more important than money."

He saw Xia Zuoyi's expression and smiled: "The lord doesn't need to believe me now, but you should be more wary of the king and his illegitimate son."

"You know who I'm talking about."

Xia Zuoyi nodded, and gave an accurate sentence: "I will not let the king and his illegitimate son take anything away from me."

"As for what I want to talk to you—Marquis Laurie, I hope to meet the queen. This birthday gift must be given to her personally."

Darnell hesitated, his aunt hadn't seen outsiders for a long time.

Xia Zuoyi pushed the box containing rose water and instructions for use in front of Darnell.

He said: "Master Marquis, please give this thing to the queen."

"I need to give the Queen a gift before the birthday dinner, and this gift will definitely make her shine at the dinner party. No woman can hide her style and beauty."

Darnell took the box wrapped in red velvet: "I can only bring it for you. Whether you agree or not depends on your aunt's answer."

Xia Zuoyi didn't have any comments.

Two days later, the day before the dinner party.

Xia Zuoyi received a definite reply from Darnell, and the queen agreed to meet him at the residence of the Marquis Laurie in secret.

Xia Zuoyi went there with the people and things that had been prepared long ago, and finally saw the queen of the empire under the leadership of Darnell.

The queen's appearance and attire are unexpected... plain, with good-looking features, almost no makeup on her face, revealing sporadic freckles and pale lips.

She is very fair, and her skin is not badly maintained, but the arrogance and sharpness between her brows make people unconsciously distance themselves from her.

This is a very proud and self-respecting woman.

In the Western Continent, "white" means elegance and wealth, and is also a symbol of the rich and noble. Fair-looking women are more popular and favored by men than others.

Commoner women hope to have fair skin.

The women's so-called cosmetics and skin care preparations are directly linked to doctors, and are made through research by some doctors.

They would use white flour, wheat flour or a lot of lead-based cosmetics to paint their faces, resulting in an extremely fair effect.

Although to a certain extent it does cover up one's own defects, spots, etc., it also damages a woman's skin and even her body extremely.

For example, some very beautiful women use lead paint to paint their faces.

This caused their husbands to inadvertently eat "cosmetics" containing lead or even arsenic in their mouths when they kissed their cheeks, causing the men to die of heavy metal poisoning.

But no one noticed what the cause of death was.

It sounds ridiculous, but it's true.

Of course, there are also some harmless plant whitening methods, such as crushing the flower roots of lilies and applying them on the face to achieve the whitening effect.

Xia Zuoyi looked at the queen, who was also looking back at herself after looking at herself.

The queen's name was Minina, and there was only one maid beside her. After Xia Zuoyi saw the gift, she asked, "What gift do you want to present to me?"

Her voice was a little cold, and there was no expression on her face, but she was always holding the perfume bottle Xia Zuoyi entrusted Darnell to give her in her hand, and it seemed that she had used it a lot.

Xia Zuoyi: "A gift that changes you."

"Please allow me, my people will serve you in the next step."

The queen obviously hesitated, and turned her gaze to Darnell who was standing aside.

Darnell: "I don't know what the gift the lord is talking about?"

"One dress up, one feast."

Xia Zuoyi turned her body sideways, and stretched out her hand to signal Queen Minina to look at the people standing behind him. There were tailors, maids... everyone was holding a packed wooden box in their hands.

He thoughtfully said: "The maid you brought can stay with you."

It was probably the indifference and confidence on Xia Zuoyi's face that moved the queen.

She finally nodded in agreement.

Xia Zuoyi ordered all the people who dressed the queen to stay, while he and Darnell left the room and went to the living room to sit down and talk.

After an unknown amount of time, the queen's maid ran over in a panic, with mixed expressions on her face, ranging from disbelief to unimaginable surprise, excitement, and tears...

She said incoherently: "Oh, oh my god, praise the God of Creation! Thank you, my lord! Marquis, Marquis, go and see the queen..."

Darnell was also made extremely nervous by the flustered posture of the maid crying and laughing, and hurriedly stood up from the sofa and asked, "What happened to the queen?!"

Xia Zuoyi calmly stood aside with her hands behind her back: "Let's go and take a look."

The queen's maid was speechless, and could only nod her head excitedly, leading them to the room just now, and knocked on the door.

"Come in." The Queen's voice trembled.

Darnell's heart tightened, thinking that something had really happened to his aunt.

He quickly stretched out his hand and pushed the door open, and just after a word overflowed from his throat, he froze in place, his worried expression froze on his face, and then burst into amazing colors.

Minina stood in the middle of the room. She didn't know where to put her hands wrapped in white gauze gloves. In the end, she could only cover her nose and mouth, and quietly wiped away the teardrops from the corners of her eyes.

She remembered the makeup on her face, and immediately put it down a little helplessly, and finally handed it to the position in front of her.

The queen is wearing a luxurious golden dress, the shoulders are boldly designed with tulle, and two gauze belts are extended to hang behind her respectively, elegant and agile.

The waist of the gown is tightly cinched, outlining a beautiful and curvy figure.

The exquisite pattern embroidered with gold thread on the dress extends from the waist up to the shoulders, and then gradually disappears into the layer upon layer of flower-like skirts, during which expensive crystal gemstones are dotted and hidden between the patterns.

It does not seize the limelight, but also can reflect the sunlight or candlelight shining when the skirt swings or walks, and makes the person wearing this long skirt look dazzling and extravagant.

On Minina's feet is a pair of the same golden high heels, revealing her fair feet, visually elevating her figure and making her look taller.

The most important changes are her face, hairstyle and so on.

Queen Minina's eyebrows are beautiful, not too much modification, more to cover up some blemishes, wrinkles and paleness on her face.

Before Xia Zuoyi came to the Anas Empire, he ordered the alchemists in the Alchemy Tower to research a set of cosmetics containing plant essences and harmless as soon as possible.

Due to limited conditions, only whitening, concealer, contouring, lipstick, etc. are needed.

Some other tools, such as eyebrow trimming knife, eyebrow pencil, ironing tool, etc., are easy to handle. Burning the tongs red can create the effect of curly hair.

The current Queen Minina has long, wavy hair, deep eyebrows, fair skin, and ruddy lips...

After changing her previous plain face, she is now incomparably charming and charming.

Darnell couldn't help but took a step forward, and said in his mouth, "The God of Creation is here!"

"Auntie, you are very beautiful at this moment! Even the brilliance of the sun can't take away your demeanor. If you are at a dinner party, you will be the focus of everyone, the most beautiful moonlight!"

The queen couldn't help laughing.

This was the first few smiles she had shown since she dressed up. It could be seen that she was already in a good mood, and she was completely captured by this custom-made gift.

Darnell couldn't help closing his eyes again, sniffing the fragrant scent in the air, and exclaimed, "It's the scent of roses."

"Auntie, you seem to be walking among blooming rose bushes, even the flowers are not as dazzling as you."

Xia Zuoyi couldn't help being stimulated by his string of rainbow farts, and rubbed her arms indiscriminately.

The next moment, Marquis Darnell, who was sincerely happy for his aunt, suddenly turned around and hugged Xia Zuoyi, expressing his gratitude: "Your gift is really great!"

Xia Zuoyi politely pushed him away, and received another thank you from the queen.

"Whatever you need, I will definitely find a way to provide convenience for you."

Minina looked at Darnell: "The same goes for the Laurie family."

Darnell nodded.

Xia Zuoyi said softly, "Do you still have affection for the king?"

Minina's expression suddenly became dark: "No, I wish he could die and let his soul go to the abyss. Where the devil is is his final destination!"

The people brought by Xia Zuoyi remained unchanged, pretending not to hear, and stood aside indifferently with their heads bowed.

The queen's maid had the same resentful expression.

Darnell: "Lord, we have a common enemy with you, and we are in the same camp."

Xia Zuoyi smiled and said, "I understand."

He bowed: "At that time, before the dinner starts, please allow my people to dress up for you again."
