I was a princess in ancient times

"The most beautiful man in Chang'an?" Curiosity appeared in Ji Mingtong's eyes, and he asked naturally, "Could it be more handsome than Aye?"

When Ji Jingrou heard the words, he repeatedly said that it was unlucky.

She only started to pay attention to this man when the clan members had already seen the true face of the so-called 'Chang'an's most beautiful man' and scolded him a lot.

As one of the most well-informed people in Chang'an, Ji Jingrou has never seen a grand occasion where no matter whether it is the clan's palm jewel or the courtiers' female relatives, men, women, old and young, all criticize the same person.

It's a pity that Qi Boxuan fell ill on the day he arrived in Chang'an, and he had to postpone even the important matter of entering the palace to greet Emperor Changping, and could only recuperate behind closed doors in the mansion.

No matter how curious Ji Jingrou was, he had no reason to visit Qi Boxuan in the British government.

She secretly regretted that she didn't send private guards to collect Qi Boxuan's portraits to satisfy her curiosity when she went to the British government's residence to join in the fun on his wife's birthday.

In terms of portrait alone, Qi Boxuan is not only more handsome than Aye?

It's Aye's appearance plus the aura in Axue's eyes, plus Abu Hanbing's complexion.

This person should only exist in heaven!

Ji Jingrou immediately fell in love with the person in the portrait, and even felt sad because of this.

The fault was that she was so curious that she was obsessed with ghosts, and in the name of being entrusted by A Xue, she personally brought medicinal materials to visit Qi Baixuan.

The old nonsense lying on the bed resurfaced in his mind, Ji Jingrou closed his eyes in despair.

It was so hard to forget something, why... ah!

A sincere smile suddenly appeared on Ji Jingrou's face.

She said to Ji Ming who was full of curiosity, "If you ask someone to find Qi Baixuan's portrait, you will know how he compares to Aye."

"You have his portrait in your hand?" Ji Mingtong immediately grasped the point, and stretched out his hand confidently, "My dear sister, just show me the portrait in your hand, please, please."

Thanks to Ji Mingtong's words, Ji Jingrou's mind reappeared in the portrait's fairy pose and the appearance of the old cucumber. She put her hand on Ji Mingtong's forehead, and her tone was full of exhaustion that could not bear to look back. "The unlucky things have long been thrown into the brazier. If you are curious, let someone look for it."

Seeing that Ji Mingtong wanted to ask again, Ji Jingrou kindly reminded, "You can buy 'Yu Chao Mei Ren Lu' now, and you can still have his portrait. If you wait a few more days...huh."

Sister Xuanwei is right, such things that mislead young girls should not be kept in the world!

The majesty that suddenly appeared in Ji Jingrou's eyes successfully deterred Ji Mingtong who wanted to act like a baby again.

Ji Mingtong absentmindedly returned to the wide chair and sat down, pretending to peek at Ji Jingrou who was lying down again, then suddenly got up, and walked towards the door lightly.

Is there really anyone more beautiful than Aye in this world?

She doesn't believe it!

Ji Jingrou glanced back, immediately put on her shoes and walked to the cubicle, and hurriedly left a word for Ji Xinxue, "Don't let me hear any words related to 'portrait'."

Ji Xinxue froze with a blank face.

What portrait?

Did he just miss a very important message?

Ji Mingtong quietly asked the palace servants to find the portrait of 'the most beautiful man in Chang'an', and walked briskly back to the study, "Where's sister?"

Ji Xinxue pointed to the compartment, and told Ji Mingtong what Ji Jingrou said.

He took a full view of the guilty conscience in Ji Mingtong's eyes, and didn't rush to ask what the "portrait" meant, and continued to approve the latest memorial sent to Fengxiang Palace.

When the sun gradually turned to the west, Ji Xinxue finally solved all the memorials.

He stood up and stretched his already stiff neck and limbs, thinking to himself that it was no wonder that Emperor Changping would catch the strong men every now and then, and specially sort out the notes for greetings.

It is true that this kind of excerpt is too tormenting mentality.

At the beginning, I greeted you with long nonsense, said two very important things, praised the achievements of Emperor Changping with seemingly endless nonsense, said two more very important things, and then asked Changping Emperor to pay attention to his health and not to worry about his ministers who are far away .

If you happen to find such a notebook when you are busy or tired, you really want to demote the person who wrote the notebook to the point where he is no longer qualified to write a notebook.

Suddenly there was a regular knock on the door.

"Princess, the portrait you want is here."

Ji Mingtong, who was quietly lying on the soft place, 'flyed' towards the door like a sensitive bird, and when she saw the big box carried by the palace servants, she froze for a moment before turning around, "Axue, I..." Go first next door.

After discovering that Ji Xinxue was no longer in the court case, and was washing his hands by the sink, Ji Mingtong's smile became even brighter, and he immediately changed his words, "I asked them to carry the box in."

Ji Xinxue nodded, ready to enjoy the painting with Ji Mingtong.

The leader of the palace said respectfully, "There are 76 records of Yu Chao's beauties, including 46 records for men and [-] records for women."

Hearing this, Ji Xinxue paused, subconsciously looking at the closed door.

Yu Chao's list of beauties?

If Yu Heng knew that the other party had just left Chang'an, he and Ji Mingtong were watching the book of beauties, would the jar of jealousy be overturned?

Just when Ji Xinxue was in hesitation, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground suddenly sounded from the next door, and then the voice of the palace people in the courtyard exclaimed 'Princess Baoding'.

Ji Xinxue immediately put away the random thoughts in her mind, and ran to the cubicle in two steps.

After listening to the palace people's explanations, they came to the conclusion that 'Ji Jingrou was woken up by the movement outside, and was so frightened that she ran out of the window immediately'.

Ji Xinxue and Ji Mingtong beside him looked at each other, and the curiosity in their eyes became more and more intense.

As long as he doesn't say anything, how will Yu Heng know that he watched Yu Chao's Beauty Record?

The Book of Beauty marks the year in a special way.

In the entire Wu Ning Dynasty, there were only two No. [-] beauties and three No. [-] beauties.

I don't know if there are political factors, but all five of them are generals in the army. Even if the beauties are dressed in red, the heroic spirit in their eyes is obvious, and the beauties even have weapons in their hands.

According to records, the two beauties are the daughters-in-law of Emperor Wuning, and one of them is the empress of Emperor Qianyuan.

One of the three beauties was the grandson-in-law of Emperor Wuning, and the other two were taken away by Xungui to be his son-in-law.

In the Qianyuan Dynasty, there was only one No. [-] beauty, the only daughter of a contemporary calligrapher, and the queen of Emperor Jianxing's childhood sweetheart.

The three most beautiful boys with a difference of ten years, one is the son-in-law of Emperor Qianyuan, and the other is the grandson-in-law of Emperor Qianyuan.

When Ji Mingtong was keen to compare which person she knew had the temperament of the most beautiful man, and which person looked like the most beautiful man, Ji Xinxue had vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

In the Jianxing dynasty, there were fifteen first beauties and ten first beauties.

Ji Xinxue ordered the palace staff to speed up the unrolling of the scroll, and quickly recall the lives of these people according to the marked names.

Among the fifteen first beauties, thirteen were born in aristocratic families or have an inseparable relationship with aristocratic families.

Among them, there are two people who have nothing to do with the family, one is just an ordinary business woman, and with the name of the first beauty, she flies to the branch and becomes a prince and child.

The other person is the granddaughter of Shangshu Hubu, married to the cousin of childhood sweetheart.

Let's talk about the remaining thirteen first beauties, eight of whom became princes and children one after another, and they were all killed by Chi Yu when Emperor Yanguang ascended the throne and cleaned up his brothers.The person who first entered the mansion to serve Emperor Yanguang also died suddenly and inexplicably in the early days of the Yanguang Dynasty.

There are still five people left. Those with good backgrounds will marry into the clan, and those with poor backgrounds will marry into Xungui to fill the house.

A total of fifteen people, none of whom were married to unknown people.

The ten most beautiful men.

Of the seven people related to the aristocratic family, three of them married the princesses and county heads of the clan, and the remaining four also married girls with better conditions than their backgrounds and family backgrounds.

Three of them had nothing to do with the family, two of them were descendants of nobles, one was Princess Shang, and the other married the daughter of King Qinghe.

The last person was Yu Heng's grandfather, Chu Mo, who came from a poor family.

Ji Xinxue looked down at the wooden box that still had many picture scrolls, and didn't understand why only the family found the bonus of 'the first beauty'.

Wu Ningchao, two first beauties, three first beauties.

In the Qianyuan Dynasty, there was one most beautiful woman and three most beautiful men.

In the Jianxing dynasty, there were fifteen first beauties and ten first beauties.

In Yan Guangchao, there are twelve first beauties and eight first beauties.

In Changping Dynasty, there were six most beautiful women and six most beautiful men.

If it weren't for the reputation of Princess Anwu and Prince Yuanbei, there might have been more beauties and men in Changping Dynasty.

"Look! It's Qi Liulang!" Ji Mingtong stopped in front of the picture of Yan Guangchao's beautiful boy that was neatly held up by the palace servants, his eyes were full of surprise, and he murmured, "Unexpectedly, there really is someone more beautiful than Aye. "

Ji Xinxue subconsciously followed Ji Mingtong's call and froze in place.

This is... Qi Boxuan?

The peach-blossom eyes seem to be full of joy and anger, and if you look closely, it seems that some diluted vermilion paint has been used, making the eyes of the person in the painting more sentimental.

Even if Ji Xinxue has met the person who has nothing to do with the portrait, she will still pay attention to the person in the portrait.

Use the simplest way to describe the impact this painting brought to him.

It is as if the artist used the most common pigments to paint other portraits first, and then carefully prepared the best gemstone pigments to paint the portrait of Qi Boxuan.

However, in fact, there is no difference in the paper, paint, or even brush for all portraits.

Ji Xinxue has gone through the Wuning Dynasty and the Qianyuan Dynasty. When the first beauties were not flooded, where these people went, he discovered the characteristics of the Ji family.

The ultimate face dog!

Even if he was as ruthless as the first emperor, when he treated Empress Dowager Su, Concubine Su and Emperor Changping, he would show more tolerance that was almost invisible compared to other people.

From Ah Buhan Bing to Xiao Ning, to Ji Cheng and Yu Heng, once again proved Ji's characteristics of loving beauties.

If the princess of Lu State had seen the portrait of Qi Baixuan first, and listened to her close friends praising Qi Liulang in the portrait all day long, she would have left a deep and indelible impression in her heart and believed that Qi Liulang was a unique and beautiful man.

In addition, Qi Boxuan back then hadn't been drained by wine, and he was at his best age.If he can maintain a healthy mental outlook, and has filters such as "the prince of the state" and "the most beautiful man", he may not be able to confuse Princess Lu by chance.

Princess Lu is the jewel in the palm of the princess of Qin. She has what she wants since she was a child. In terms of status, she is not even inferior to the princess of Emperor Yanguang. In terms of wealth, she is far better than the princesses of Qinghe County and Xinyang County.

It's not surprising that the moon will not get the stars, so it's not surprising that Princess Lu is extraordinarily innocent and naive... Maybe it's the same temperament as Ji Mingtong, or even worse than Ji Mingtong.

Sensing Ji Xinxue's gaze, Ji Mingtong subconsciously took half a step back, and said in a nasty voice, "You...see what I do."

Did she do something wrong again?

Ji Xinxue shook her head, and said solemnly, "If Ji Cheng makes you unhappy, you must tell me."

Princess Lu is somewhat rebellious. She only trusts Princess Qin and wants to rebel against Princess Qin. That's why she has to persist after being cheated. She spends her whole life with the person in her fantasy.

Ji Mingtong is different. Besides Aye, Ji Mingtong also has two grandmothers and many brothers and sisters who can speak their minds.

Besides, Ji Cheng is not Qi Boxuan either.

When Ji Mingtong heard this, the tension on his face immediately turned into a bright smile, and he hugged Ji Xinxue's arm tightly like when he was a child.

The number of "first beauties" in the Yanguang Dynasty was less than that in the Jianxing Dynasty, and the twelve first beauties without exception entered the palace to serve Emperor Yanguang.

None of these people managed to survive until the death of Emperor Yanguang, and none of the heirs they gave birth to survived.

The eight most beautiful men were still taken away by the clan and Xungui as sons-in-law, seven of them were 'married' to the daughters of the clan, and only one was taken by the Marquis of Dingbei. .

Ji Xinxue recalled intently, and found that the "No. [-] Beautiful Man" captured by the Dingbei Hou Mansion was the descendant of a down-and-out general who founded the country, and it was basically certain that he had nothing to do with the aristocratic family.

The other seven people almost didn't even become husbands because their families had completely declined. Even if they married the clan daughters, they would have no status.The children of both parties have been sent to their grandparents to be raised by their grandparents since birth, and their relationship with their parents is very weak.

As long as the aristocratic family doesn't lose their minds enough to make trouble regardless of the risk of extermination, there won't be any big troubles in a while.

The portraits of Ji Xinxue and Abuhanbing are placed side by side at the end of Yu Chao's Beauty Record.

Because no one has the confidence to compare with Ji Xinxue and Abuhanbing in terms of appearance, and it is impossible to force them with their status, so since the sixth year of Changping, there has never been a new "No. [-] Beauty" or "No. [-] Beauty" A beautiful boy'.

"Princess Anwu Welcomes the Driving Painting" is a widely circulated portrait when Ji Xinxue returned to Chang'an at the end of the fifth year of Changping, and went out of the city to meet Changping Emperor who went to the imperial mausoleum to worship his ancestors.

He looked at the beauty who was looking into the distance with squinting eyes, and nodded in satisfaction.

Although the studio was particularly partial to Qi Baixuan, it didn't deliberately black him out.

"Axue!" Ji Mingtong was stunned three steps away from Ji Xinxue, and said in disbelief, "There is Kang Pavilion here?!"

"Huh?" Ji Xinxue turned to look over.

He really didn't pay attention to the "first beauties" of Changping Dynasty.

Unlike Ji Xinxue, who has long seen through that the so-called "first beauty" has become a springboard for some people since the Jianxing Dynasty.Ji Mingtong firmly believed in these portraits, so it was extremely difficult to accept the existence of Kang Ge.

"Why?" She clenched her fists angrily, "Yu Heng and Ji Cheng are not on the list, so why is he on the list? The artist also made him so... strange!"

In addition to the romantic charm that belongs to the family, Kang Ge is inferior to Yu Heng and Ji Cheng in terms of appearance, figure, demeanor, and majesty... in terms of everything!

Ji Xinxue looked at the people in the portrait with critical eyes, and said with a smile, "Fenglang and Ji Cheng don't need the blessing of 'No. [-] Beauty', in order to be Princess Shang."

Ji Mingtong was stunned.

What do you mean?

Ji Cheng and her...Of course they want Princess Shang, but they just can't do it.

Besides, based on the relationship between Yu Heng and Ashe, it should also be Princess Xiangshang.

Ji Xinxue shook his head. He already knew why Ji Jingrou jumped out of the window and ran away because he heard the 'portrait'. Presumably, he still couldn't accept the tragic gap between the beautiful man in the portrait and the actual 'beautiful man'.

He kindly reminded the 'Victim No. [-]' in front of him, "The painter was very eccentric when he painted the Kang Pavilion, didn't he?"

Ji Mingtong nodded immediately, and said with a sneer, "It's not just partiality, it's like treating Kang Ge as the lover of his dreams."

Otherwise, how could he paint the appearance of a middle-aged man as a top-notch handsome man?

Ji Xinxue raised her finger to Qi Baixuan's portrait, "When the painter painted Qi Liulang, he was more biased than when he painted Kangge."

According to Ji Mingtong, when the painter painted Kang Ge, he imagined Kang Ge as the lover in his dream.So when the painter painted Qi Boxuan, he imagined Qi Boxuan as his own father.

Because she hoped too much to inherit her father's appearance, she was completely blinded.

Ji Mingtong was stunned, and trotted to Qi Boxuan's portrait, carefully remembered the details of the portrait, and then ran back to compare with Kang Ge's portrait.

After repeating this several times, she said confidently, "Even if the artist who painted Qi Liulang was slightly biased, Kang Ge cannot be compared with Qi Liulang."

Ji Xinxue silently recalled Kang Ge's appearance, at least he could be called handsome, with a suave demeanor blessing, although not as good as Ji Cheng, but he would not be regarded as a passer-by when walking on the road.

If it was Qi Boxuan...

Really not necessarily.

Tsk, fake paintings are harmful.

He first harmed Ji Jingrou, then Ji Mingtong, and I don't know how many more people will be harmed who didn't go to the birthday banquet of the British wife, but I heard that Qi Liulang was once the ignorant girl who was "the most beautiful man in Chang'an".

It can only be said that fortunately Qi Boxuan has revealed his true colors, at most he will make the girls sad, and will not let the girls lose heart for him again.

Ji Xinxue patted Ji Mingtong's head, and said in a suddenly loving tone, "When Qi Baixuan recuperates and officially goes to work in Honglu Temple, you will know how far he is from the portrait."

Ji Mingtong nodded, his eyes full of anticipation.

Ji Xinxue ordered the palace staff to collect the scrolls and send them to Yuhe Palace.

Seeing that Ji Mingtong was always looking at Qi Baixuan's portrait hesitantly, Ji Xinxue hesitated for a while, but finally decided not to give the painting to Ji Mingtong.

The higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

He quietly asked Qingyun to send a message to Ji Cheng, asking Ji Cheng to spend more time with Ji Mingtong these few days.

Leaving Fengxiang Palace, Ji Xinxue went to find Ji Jingrou first, but was turned away without accident.

Ji Jingrou's servant looked at Ji Xinxue apologetically, and said in a low voice, "Forgive me, Your Highness, since the princess has been to the British government, she has been a little weird, and she definitely didn't intend to make things difficult for her. Do you have anything to say to the princess?" , just tell the slave, and the slave will definitely bring it to the princess without saying a word."

Ji Xinxue raised her hand to cover her aching heart, and said slowly, "Qi Boxuan has been working abroad since the 17th year of Yanguang. Back then, only Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li had a son and a daughter brought up by Mrs. Li for him. This time he brought two sons and three daughters back to Chang'an, and seven sons and six daughters in the Jiangnan Bieyuan."

The palace man's expression gradually stiffened, and he looked at Ji Xinxue with a hint of pleading.

Ever since the princess saw Qi Liulang's portrait, she... how dare she say such things to the princess.

Ji Xinxue coughed lightly, and took out two golden pearls as big as the belly of a finger from her purse, "If sister doesn't beat you to death, I will reward you with another 500 taels of silver."

Hearing this, the palace servants immediately turned around and ran into the house, as if they were afraid that Ji Xinxue would regret it.

fine!At best, the princess would drive her out of the palace.

With His Highness's reward and many years of caring for her, she can at least have her own house in Chang'an, with no worries about food and clothing.

Hearing the unbelievable screams and heartbroken wailing in the house, Ji Xinxue looked up at the sunset that was about to set on the horizon.

His worry was not much.

Ji Jingrou also fell in love with the imaginary person because of that painting.

Thanks to the fact that Qi Boxuan is so dead that there is no room for imagination, otherwise... Alas, fortunately, Ji Mingtong, who is even more stupid and sweet, has already tied his whole heart to Ji Cheng.

In just two days, the news that Qi Baixuan gave birth to nine sons and nine daughters in 12 years spread like a gust of wind throughout Chang'an.

Although many older generations don't pay attention to beautiful men, they have heard that Qi Liulang and Princess Lu are deeply in love with each other. Up to now, they can't accept the reality of his wife's early death, so they would rather bear the reason of being unfilial and unkind and wandering abroad.

Ever since Qi Boxuan arrived in Chang'an.

Also, the closer Qi Boxuan gets to Chang'an, the more he misses Princess Lu.It is because of longing that he became sick, exhausted all his energy unconsciously, and when he saw a familiar scene, he suddenly remembered the voice and smile of his beloved wife, so the saying that he fell ill gradually spread.

Because of Qi Boxuan's 'affectionate', some people even think that Qi Boxuan is someone who can be trusted, and plan to marry their daughter to Qi Boxuan and become the stepmother of Xianglin County King.

Fortunately, the news of "nine children and nine daughters" made many temporarily demented girls, wives, and old ladies wake up in time, and listed the British government as "if it is not necessary, there is no need to come and go." ' list.

Two days later, the British government secretly sent a convoy to Jiangnan.

Ji Xinxue'an's eyeliner in the British government reported the news that the people from the British government were planning to bring Qi Baixuan's six children and seven daughters who had stayed in the south of the Yangtze River back to Chang'an.

He carefully memorized every word on the note, and threw it into the burning brazier.

Today, the British government brought these people back to Chang'an for the sake of reputation, so don't think about sending them away easily in the future.

Only when the people in the British government clearly realize that there is no way out, can they be honest and obedient.

The next day was the Grand Court Meeting, and Ji Xinxue deliberately got up in the dark to rush to Fengxiang Palace.

Emperor Changping, who had been on vacation for several days, had relaxed eyes and brows, and looked at Ji Xinxue more pleasingly than usual, "Come on, I will stand by my side later."

Ji Xinxue resisted the urge to sigh, and deliberately lowered her voice, "Aye, can you not go to the court today? I will preside over the court meeting for you."

Changping Emperor Changping's subconscious stereotyped behavior due to the influence of the late emperor.

Let’s start with the Dachaohui and the Xiaochaohui, which have been going on for ten years, even if they are sick and can hardly get out of bed.

Ji Xinxue knew that these days, even though he was the one who approved all the papers on trifles in the court, Emperor Changping would carefully review every paper he approved.

That is to say, it has been nearly half of the days since the people who worshiped the ancestors in the imperial mausoleum left Chang'an, and he still failed to achieve the goal of allowing Emperor Changping to enjoy a 'vacation'.

In two days at most, the news of the success of "Auspiciousness" can be sent back to Chang'an, and Emperor Changping must feel like he is on vacation before then.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as Aye can taste the benefits of being kind to himself, how can he bear to continue to abuse himself with stereotyped behavior.

"Do you have other preparations?" Emperor Changping's eyes flashed with satisfaction, "Yes."

Recently, Xiao Wu has been very active in various aspects, not bad.

Ji Xinxue nodded, her brows filled with anticipation.

No.

I hope that when Aye discovers this, he can beat him lightly.

He is not as rough and thick as Aye's little bear.
