The bad emperor of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 359: Man Makeup

Guo Nuan and Xiaoyao were fighting on the street for a while, and Xiaoyao was quite lamented about Qiao Yun being sent to the frontier.However, it affected the good mood of shopping, so I didn't mention Qiao Yun any more.Then Guo Nuan moved to other topics.

When it comes to the case, Guo Nuan's narration is a bit complicated, but Xiaoyao spends a long time shopping and has a lot of free time, so she is interested in listening to Guo Nuan's story from beginning to end.

"Uh, are these the latest popular outfits?" Guo Nuan and Xiao Yao came to the shop section of Fenzhi Street, and he saw many young men wearing women's clothing, which surprised Guo Nuan.

And look, there is a little white face passing by on the opposite side, dressed up with an orchid on top of his head.And the other scholar held a small peach blossom fan for women in his hand.What made Guo Nuan even more speechless was that some men even covered their faces with a thin layer of rouge and ointment.Some even painted their lips with scarlet.

"What's wrong, in this world, it's like this overnight?" Guo Nuan murmured to himself, he was a little uncomfortable with the scene where men and women were dressed upside down.

Xiaoyao was not surprised, she stuck out her tongue and said: "It seems that the idiot has been busy with government affairs in the palace recently, and he rarely even visited the street."

Xiaoyao explained that in the past six months, there has been war in the Khitan tribe in the northeast, and many Hu people have migrated south to escape the war. Of course, Chang'an, the largest and most prosperous city in the Central Plains, is naturally the first choice for these people to emigrate.

The Hu people brought many of their customs and habits, such as the custom of men painting women's clothing, coupled with the close cultural exchanges between the Western Regions and the Central Plains of the Tang Dynasty, a lot of strange dressing culture came from the West Buddha, which spread to Chang'an to accept foreign cultures The area of ​​Datang residents with a high degree was immediately cited as a fashion trend.

For example, women's makeup, women's clothing on men, these are the recent trends of the times.Therefore, the developed commercial and cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries in Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty allowed it to absorb the essence and characteristics of the cultures of all countries, just like a melting pot that melted all foreign cultures, thus absorbing and transforming them into their own local characteristics.At that time, the most trend-setting place in the world was Chang'an, the world's largest city.

"Oh, so it's like that, but this man's face is smeared like flowers, I'm really not used to it. It's weird, a bit sissy."

Guo Nuan muttered something, just as he passed by a young scholar, his face was smeared like a monkey's butt, red, when he heard Guo Nuan's sissy in the second half of the sentence, the scholar would Those peach blossom eyes with dark purple eyeshadow gouged out Guo Nuan.

"Giggle." Xiaoyao saw this scene, especially Guo Nuan being gouged out by a man's eyes, she couldn't help but giggled non-stop, her watery eyes were teary, and she laughed out loud. tears.

"That's right, it's not too much for them to paint like this. Come on, my man's heroic and plain face is still out of date. Someday I will be forced to draw my own monster costume." Guo Nuan laughed at himself.

Regarding Guo Nuan popping out a new word, Xiaoyao didn't understand it again, she didn't understand the word "jealous" just now, this idiot is quite strange, he always invents some new words, but Interesting too, shemale?It’s true that old masters are used to drawing women’s clothing. Before it became a trend, Xiaoyao also felt like a monster, and she got used to it over time.

Of course, men’s painting of women’s makeup is the first thing that brings prosperity to the cosmetics store in Chang’an. Look at the shops on both sides, there are many young men’s customers. Carrying bottles, cans, boxes, cosmetics, and jewelry, he walked out of the shop contentedly.

"By the way, Guo Nuan, let's go and have a look, maybe there are cosmetics suitable for you in this store."

Xiao Yao covered her mouth and giggled, before Guo Nuan could react, she was dragged into a store full of women's jewelry and cosmetic items by the little girl.

At the beginning, Guo Nuan looked embarrassed, it was like visiting a women's clothing store with his girlfriend in modern times, his eyes were full of colorful bras, underwear, and underwear of many styles.As a man, I really don't know where to put my eyes. In short, it's not suitable to put them anywhere.

"Ahem, well, forget it, I don't need it, let's go."

At this moment, Guo Nuan froze like a little girl, with a look of embarrassment.This is a woman's item, if the elders stroll in, if they meet acquaintances, Guo Nuan feels that it is too embarrassing.

"Why are you so shy? This girl has just paid out the food. My mother rewarded you with 1000 taels of silver and gave you a few small gifts. I just bought them from this store and let your princess wife dress up this man for you." " Xiaoyao couldn't help but uttered a sentence in a local dialect, with a man's bold tone, which made Guo Nuan completely shut up.

However, the business in the store is very hot, and there are many male customers.This made Guo Nuan a little less embarrassed.But what I'm really afraid of will come.

"Oh, Guo Hanlin, disrespect and disrespect, such a coincidence, could it be that the princess accompanied you to buy men's makeup?"

An official with a familiar face suddenly put a hand on Guo Nuan's back.Guo Nuan turned her head and saw that it was a colleague from the Examination Institute.There have been several meetings in political documents.

"Oh, it turned out to be a companion...friend—friend...friend."

Before Guo Nuan could explain that Xiao Yao forcefully dragged her into the "Men's Makeup" store, the bureaucrat of the examination institute smiled ambiguously, as if you understood, and let out a oh.

At this moment, he was pulling a fat woman with heavy make-up and she was extremely tough. He caught a glimpse of the young, beautiful and lovely Xiao Yao who was choosing gifts next to Guo Nuan.

"Ah... yes, I'm shopping with my friends, and Shengping is at home with the kids."

Seeing that he had misunderstood, Guo Nuan cursed inwardly, "Damn it, I hope this famous gossip man in the examination institute will not spread rumors casually, otherwise his innocence will be ruined."

He and Xiaoyao are indeed innocent.It's a pity who will believe it, almost all male friends don't believe it, at least the sad Guo Nuan and Shengping's wife will understand and trust, she is very magnanimous.

Come on, after the official of the examination institute had a few pleasantries with Guo Nuan, he took the fat lady with a big basket of men's make-up cosmetics and left contentedly.

"Vixen! Humph"

While Guo Nuan was talking with the official, the fat woman looked coldly at Xiao Yao who was next to Guo Nuan. At this moment, Xiao Yao was completely attracted by the variety of products in the shop, and she didn't pay attention to their conversation.

And when the fat woman passed by Guo Nuan, Guo Nuan was a little speechless when she left a sentence.Probably the ugly woman was jealous when she saw a beautiful young girl.But the vixen also indirectly scolded Guo Nuan with a single sentence. Doesn't this mean that he cheated, abandoned Shengping's wife, and was seduced by a mistress.

Thinking of this, Guo Nuan felt that she was wronged more than Dou E.The official of the examination institute had a history of stealing sex before and was caught by the fat woman, but it was wrong for the fat woman to wrong Guo Nuan with the prejudice that all men love to steal.

After the fat woman left, Guo Nuan felt depressed for a moment and then forgot about it.And Xiaoyao quickly packed a dozen men's makeup with novel styles.Like face cream, lipstick, headscarves, hairpins, flower arrangements, everything.

Xiaoyao took out 20 taels of silver, accepted the bill boldly, and then handed over a basket of cosmetics to Guo Nuan: "No, this is a small gift from Xiaoyao, hehe, next time we meet, can you give me a gift?" Put on makeup. Otherwise you'll be out of date."

Guo Nuan was speechless, he would not be happy to kill this man if he asked him to paint it.However, Xiaoyao sincerely gave it away, and Guo Nuan was reluctant to postpone it bitterly, and finally thought about taking it home and keeping it.

"By the way, before applying facial rouge, you should apply some rouge foundation first, don't apply too much red."

Xiao Yao exhorted very solemnly.Guo Nuan didn't even dare to raise her head at the moment, and walked with her head down. What's wrong with this world?Men's makeup became popular all of a sudden.

"By the way, Lao Guo, you haven't finished talking about the major case of cheating in the imperial examination, let's continue with this matter."

Xiaoyao was very creative. She visited a shop selling soft silk scarves, and she asked Guo Nuan after choosing a dozen colorful silk scarves.

"Ahem" Now Xiaoyao has finally turned her attention to the topic. In order not to let Xiaoyao finish shopping in a street, she bought a lot of women's products and completely transformed herself into a sissy transvestite. Guo Nuan Quickly and vividly described the major cases that he had investigated and handled during this period of time.

"You don't know. At that time, many officials were involved in the case of cheating in the imperial examination. Even the prime minister was involved. Call it serious."

"Wow, the prime minister is a high-ranking official. Such an official is involved. It's really hard for you, a little invigilator, to withstand the pressure." Immediately, the woman responded in surprise and exaggeration.

"Tsk tsk, of course, brother withstood the pressure and single-handedly fought against many evil forces. How many times have those officials threatened and intimidated me? Your Majesty invited me to be your backer..." Then the man described it exaggeratedly.

A man and a woman chatted like this without saying a word, and soon they finished shopping for half a street.But Xiaoyao has a basket of things in her hand.They are all small gifts for Guo Nuan.

"Why do you buy flowers?" Guo Nuan watched Xiaoyao walk into the flower shop and bought two flower arrangements, one orchid and one chrysanthemum, which seemed to be cut and picked from the flower garden just this morning. The petals are still dripping with crystal dew.

"No, men in Chang'an are also wearing hairpin flowers in crowns and hats recently. It would look very nice to put a flower on the head of the head. This is also passed down by Hu Rennan."

After Xiaoyao finished speaking, she seriously inserted an orchid in one end of her Biluochun hair, looking very elegant.Unexpectedly, what happened next left Guo Nuan speechless.There are too many ridiculous things encountered today. Fortunately, he has a strong psychological endurance, otherwise he would have gone crazy.

Xiaoyao moved another chrysanthemum to Guo Nuan's side.

"Don't move around, idiot." A soft shout made Guo Nuan froze and didn't dare to move.

On the crowded street, I saw a woman standing on tiptoe, smiling and inserting chrysanthemums in the hair of a man who dared not move.

"Chrysanthemum, this is a chrysanthemum." Guo Nuan muttered to herself with a mournful face.

"What's wrong with the chrysanthemums? It's said that it's popular for men to wear chrysanthemums on top of their heads this year. It's auspicious!" Xiao Yao pointed to a man walking in the distance, who happened to have a chrysanthemum on top of his head.

"Oh, okay." Guo Nuan felt like a vase with a flower in it.

"By the way, Guo Nuan, you invited the empress of the harem for the cheating case, and then what happened afterwards. The scene of Jingzhao Yin's yamen acting must have made Qiao Yun cry. Hehe."

Then Guo Nuan sadly told the story of the case of cheating in the imperial examination.
