The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

On her wedding day, Sheng Yuan was sleeping soundly when she suddenly heard Xiaoyao calling her. It took her a while to realize that the girl was telling her to wake up.

With great difficulty, he managed to open his eyes and looked out the window: Hey! At this time, the moon's shadow was still there, and the sky was just a little brighter. It was estimated that the rooster responsible for crowing was still sleeping.

Fortunately, she still remembered that she was getting married today, so she didn't lose her temper. She got up obediently and cooperated with dressing up.

The Xi Niang who is dressing her today is a palace official who was promoted to a female official by virtue of her dressing skills.

"The minister's appearance is already outstanding, but he is also elegant in temperament and has extraordinary official etiquette. Looking at it, he is really brilliant and extraordinary... Even for people like me who make a living by dressing up, it is rare to see someone like you. A girl with bright features and the right color makes my skills useless.

However, although you have a good foundation and can look stunningly beautiful no matter how you dress up, today is your special day, so you must be a little more beautiful than usual.

If you want to make this more beautiful, there are not many aspects I can adjust. I might start with your beautiful appearance and outstanding temperament, so that they complement each other harmoniously.

Therefore, your makeup today should not be too thick, as it will easily diminish your noble temperament; however, your makeup should not be too light, as it will easily overshadow the colorful jewelry.

Therefore, after much thought, I still feel that the peony glitter powder developed by Taiyuan Hospital and distributed to courtiers by the imperial court is very good and more suitable for you to apply now.

Although the color of this powder is thin and light, it does not appear whitening when used on the face. However, you are already glowing white, so there is no need to whiten it. Instead, its excellent brightening effect can bring out the beauty in your eyes. Shining brightly.

As for blush and eye shadow, there is no need to use exaggerated colors. Once you apply the flower mother-of-pearl and match it with lipstick of the same color, it will be enough to highlight your appearance and style to the extreme. "

This dressing lady is really a wonderful person. Not only does the makeup she paints make Sheng Yuan very satisfied, but even everything she says is in line with Sheng Yuan's wishes.

What's more important is that this person is also very good at reading people's eyes.

Because she was considering wearing a phoenix crown, when she combed Shengyuan's hair, she deliberately left a place for the crown in the center of Shengyuan's hair; then, she coiled the hair frame with the wig around this position, and then placed the surrounding Her real hair is mixed with the wig on the hair stand and bent into a petal-style bun. Finally, the remaining hair is stacked in layers around the bun.

In the words of the female official, this hairstyle not only looks gorgeous, but it can actually stabilize the phoenix crown.

However, after Sheng Yuan looked at her bun in the mirror, she couldn't help but pouted.

She felt that although the style of this hairstyle was complicated, it would seem a bit uncoordinated without the phoenix crown... but if she wore the phoenix crown, it would be perfect.

Just as Sheng Yuan was looking at herself in the mirror and considering whether to ask the female officer to make slight adjustments to her hairstyle, the female officer who had been paying attention to Sheng Yuan's reaction noticed her slightly pursed lips.

"Wait a moment." The female officer followed Sheng Yuan's gaze and looked at the dressing mirror. She suddenly felt relieved. She hurriedly picked out a gemstone corolla that was slightly smaller than the phoenix crown but similar in shape from the hair accessories box and tried to put it on the placement gift box. After the crown was found to be suitable, it was fixed lightly.

Sure enough, as soon as the corolla was installed, looking at Sheng Yuan with a much more pleasing hairstyle, she lowered her eyes with satisfaction. "..." The female officer, who was still paying attention to the change in Sheng Yuan's expression, was stunned when she saw this smile.

Darling, how come she never realized that the difficult-to-serve third lady of the Yongxing Marquis Mansion could be so stunningly beautiful? !

Although she came to the palace to serve nobles during the Yanping period and didn't know much about this third lady, she had heard many legends about her. Among them, the most talked about were her various feats in the court. It is said that every time this third lady goes to court, she is either quarreling with the scholars or preparing to attack the ministers alone. In short, she is very tough.

"I don't know how those ministers in the court could bear to fight with such a charming beauty!" It took the female officer a long time to wake up from the shock of Sheng Yuan's smile, and she sighed silently.

Of course, not long after sighing, the female officer who is good at recommending herself to others figured it out: If she were to change places, and there was a handsome man who was very suitable for her to compete with her for her future, I think, with her temper, even if the other party She was much more beautiful than Pan An, and she probably couldn't see the other's beauty. At that time, she would definitely compete with that man wholeheartedly for fame and fortune... At this moment, the female officer inexplicably understood that she and Sheng Yuan were in the same court. The psychology of some of the officials' courtiers.

Sheng Yuan had enough of admiring the makeup. When she looked up, she noticed the female officer looking at her: "..."

Um? ! This feeling... why does it seem familiar? !

When she looked carefully, the other person's eyes were filled with excitement and appreciation of achievement.

"Maybe I misjudged it." Sheng Yuan blinked and saw that he still found nothing, so he simply returned his attention to his growling stomach.

"Xiaoyao, where's the breakfast?!" Sheng Yuan, who had finished dressing up, remembered that she hadn't eaten yet and immediately glared at Xiaoyao, "I forgot to eat, why didn't you remind me?"

"Miss, why have you forgotten? When the nun in the palace told you about the wedding process and rules yesterday, she said that you can't eat the usual meals today." Xiaoyao ran over with an embroidered bag in his arms. He took out a piece of dried fruit and handed it to Sheng Yuan, "You can only eat these until the wedding is completed."

"..." Sheng Yuan stared blankly at the piece of dried fruit that Xiaoyao handed over, which was slightly smaller than her lips. She was in disbelief, "You actually have the heart to starve me like this?!"

She remembered everything her grandma said, but she thought the dietary requirements were a bit harsh, so she didn't take it seriously. After all, her wedding process was very different from ordinary weddings, not to mention that it was very different.

But she didn't expect that Xiaoyao completely abided by her rule of not taking it seriously.

"If you obey, then obey, but how can you starve me?!" Sheng Yuan, who had hardly eaten a meal since she was a child, did not forget to protest while holding the dried fruit in her mouth.

"Dried fruits, candied fruits, and fresh slices... these are all you can use for breakfast and lunch today." Xiaoyao showed Shengyuan the fruits in the embroidery bag sincerely, "This is what the nanny prepared personally, madam. I also agreed, but there’s nothing I can do about it!”

"!!!" Sheng Yuan didn't expect that the old woman had a back-up plan.

"Miss, this is how the eldest lady and the girls from the Duke's Mansion eat when they get married. Just make do with it. After the ceremony, dinner can be served as usual." Xiaoyao saw Sheng Yuan's eyes rolling. , fearing that his young lady would be naughty, he hurriedly whispered comfort and encouragement.

Sheng Yuan was not very happy, but then a little girl came over to report that her cousin from Duke Sheng's Mansion had come to add makeup... After hearing this news, Sheng Yuan had not spoken, but Xiaoyao He breathed a sigh of relief: Very good, her lady has no time to protest for the time being. (End of chapter)
