Chapter 47

Chu Yan was looking in the mirror, as if she was very satisfied with her current state, she helped Zhu Cui on her head, and smiled shyly and proudly.

Gu Qi glanced at the plain Yuehua skirt on her body, then turned to Hanzhi and said, "Change into a brighter one for your master."

Chu Yan looked in the mirror... Sure enough, the part above the neck is really eye-catching, but below the neck... it's very simple.

She walked behind the screen, intending to pick out another dress, but after walking a few steps, she turned around and said, "Your Highness, I want to change."

The implication is: get out now.

Gu Qi: "Oh."

Not moving.

Seeing that he did not leave, Chu Yan emphasized again, "Your Highness, I have to change my clothes!"

Gu Qi nodded, "I know."

Chu Yan: Get lost if you know it! ?

After staring wide-eyed for a long while, Gu Qi let out a long sigh, and looked at her meaningfully, from head to toe, then from foot to head, when he passed the key parts, his gaze was fixed for a moment, and then he turned and left.

Chu Yan was nailed to the spot at that time, and felt that she seemed to understand what he hadn't said——

"Which part of your body have I not seen? Why are you ashamed?"

In such an instant, she felt that she had been molested silently once.

After changing clothes and putting on make-up, I spent a long time choosing earrings and necklaces. After all the morning, I finally got dressed up.

The person in the mirror was combing a slanting cloud bun, and there was a thin silver line on the smooth forehead, which was dotted with broken pearls. It swayed slightly with Chu Yan's walking posture, smart and cute.

The enamel colored peony hairpin was just inserted into the hair bun, exposing the leaf-shaped hairpin body. The gorgeous enamel color shines brightly in the sun, making it hard not to notice.

Seen from the back, there is only a white jade ruyi pearl pinned in the black hair, and the brilliance of the jade flows, which makes the hair black and thick.

Chu Yan twirled around, wearing a flowing colorful dark flower cloud splendor skirt in the shape of a trumpet flower, with a slender waist and slightly rippling skirt.The collar is a very simple style, decorated with a circle of very small dark lines, which fits just below the collarbone in a docile manner. It looks neither revealing nor sexy.

The narrow waist and wide sleeves make her look slender and slender. Coupled with the skirt embellished with dark flowers, the effect is really good.

Hanzhi was afraid that she would be cold, so he finally ordered an eight-treasure brocade cloak for her outside, the color was plain, so as not to conflict with the inside.These Hanzhi have all been planned out, for example, if you wear this brocade cloak, anyone who sees it will say that the master is graceful and luxurious; when you take off the cloak when you enter the hall, you will have a different style inside.

The make-up was done by Chu Yan herself, she is a modern woman, even though she is not usually coquettish enough, but she has secretly thought about the basic make-up techniques.

She patted the peach blossom powder she had ground on her face and spread it evenly, it was considered a foundation.

The so-called peach pollen is actually flour mixed with peach petals, finely ground together, then added some water, soaked in a sealed jar for ten days, and finally it is a jar of creamy rough foundation when it is taken out.

Chu Yan didn't expect too much. After all, this kind of rough foundation was much better than the lead powder of this era. She would rather not look so white than smear lead powder on her face.

All in all, the effect of the final makeup can be described in one word: the vermilion powder is not deep and even, and the flowers are light and springy.

She pushed open the door with makeup that was a little more beautiful than plain makeup, and a little lighter than ordinary women, and Gu Qi was waiting for her reading a book under the apricot tree in the yard.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, he put down the book, turned his head, and Chu Yan saw the word stunning in his eyes with satisfaction.

She smiled, leaned over and bowed, Hua Sheng on her forehead shook slightly, "I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

There is nothing else in Gu Qi's eyes at this moment, only a blooming lily, graceful and graceful, like a fairy descending from the earth.

After looking at Chu Yan like this for a while, the corners of his lips slightly raised, and he said softly, "Come here."

Chu Yan walked up to him according to her words, raised her face and looked at him.

Her eyebrows are not thin, not considered willow-leaf eyebrows, so she has a bit more hearty and heroic spirit than ordinary women.

The tip of the nose is small, and the forehead is smooth and full. It looks like a blessed person.

The almond eyes are bright, and the smile is like the sparkling autumn water. The upturned corners of the eyes naturally look very pleasing, and there is a different kind of charm.

The lips are neither thick nor thin, neither too much nor too little is just right as it is now, but once he smiles, it seems like the spring is warm and the sun is slightly drunk.

Finally, there is a pointed chin, such a weak feeling is always easy to make people suddenly love and pity.

This is a troublesome face, beautiful and beautiful when not smiling, but once she smiles, she is charming and radiant.

Gu Qi inspected her for a while, then lifted her chin, "What should I do, I don't seem to be willing to just let you out of the palace like this."

Chu Yan raised her eyebrows, "What is your Highness's explanation?"

Gu Qi sighed, "If you are so beautifully dressed, if you go out of the palace and catch people's attention, and cause malicious intentions to take away and become Mrs. Yazhai, where can I find my princess?"

Chu Yan curled her lips into a smile, and gave him a slight wink, "Your Highness is praising me for my beauty?"

Obviously, Gu Qi has never seen such a bold and arrogant woman, who actually winked at the man, and his face darkened immediately, "Where did you learn it?"

Chu Yan was taken aback for a moment, er, she seemed to have forgotten the limitations of the times, and made this move unknowingly as a joke...

She immediately put away her indecent look, and lowered her head obediently, "When I was young, I went to Hualou a few times with my second uncle, and that's how those girls greeted people..."

Chu Yan: Second Uncle, I'm sorry for you, who told you that your name is outside, you must lie down at this time.

Gu Qi's temples twitched, and he grabbed two key words, "... Hualou?"

No wonder people in the capital said that the second son of the Zhao family was obsessed with women, and he took such a young child to Hualou. He made a serious note in his heart that this guy would not be able to climb up in the future.

After talking like this for a long time, Gu Qi turned serious and became serious, "After lunch later, you are the princess, you are not unusual, so you don't have to go so early. Xiao Che's wife has already entered the palace, and now I am paying my respects to the queen mother." , I will come to see you in a while, and when I go to Mu's house in the afternoon, you two can go together as companions."

Chu Yan was taken aback for a moment, and then understood his intention.

In fact, he knew her uneasiness and nervousness. He knew that she would feel a little uncomfortable attending this kind of occasion for the first time. A princess who can stand on her own.

So he found a helper, even if he couldn't help her too much, at least he could stay with her.

Gu Qi said it calmly, but Chu Yan knew how much he had thought about himself before this.

She smiled and bowed down, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness."

Gu Qi also laughed, this man really had a delicate heart, he just said Mrs. Xiao would go with her, she immediately understood and guessed all his intentions.

"All in all, don't worry." He patted her on the shoulder with a gentle expression.

The sun shattered the ground, and the apricot blossoms were flying in the soft spring breeze. This scene was like a timeless ink painting, but with a little more vivid color.

Chen Xiang in the distance watched silently, then turned and left expressionlessly.

Chu Yan's afternoon nap was not good at all.

Dressed so complicatedly, Hanzhi Qian urged Wan to lie flat and not move, so as not to mess up her hairstyle, but the clothes were changed, so there was no problem of wrinkling or not.

Chu Yan just lay there motionless with Jingui's head on her head, her whole body was sore, she finally sat up, sighed and said that it is better not to go to sleep, but to go to bed early at night.

She pushed the door and went out, just in time Chen Xiang came to report that Mrs. Xiao had arrived, so Chu Yan asked Chen Xiang to invite her into the hall of the side hall. After all, Mrs. Xiao is a woman, so they can't meet in the main hall of the prince, right?
After a while, a woman about eighteen or nineteen years old walked in from the outside. She was wearing a moon-facing bun and a skirt with a crescent phoenix tail. She was thin and about the same height as Chu Yan.

She lowered her head and bowed to Chu Yanyingying, "See the princess."

Chu Yan stood up and helped her up, and only then did she see her face clearly.

The facial features are relatively ordinary, the eyebrows are a little sparse, and they don't look particularly energetic, and the lip color is also light, which makes people feel that they are not charming enough.

Chu Yan was a little surprised. When he was a child studying in Ming Yangzhai, he could see Xiao Che every day. Although he was not a handsome man like Prince Qin Yuanshan, he was more heroic and masculine. Now married to such an ordinary looking woman?
Even so, she still held Mrs. Xiao's hand and asked with a smile, "What's Mrs. Xiao's name?"

Since the two of them are going to be together, they can't be called by Madam Xiao along the way, can they?

How unfamiliar!

The woman smiled slightly, "My surname is Feng, and it is good for His Highness to call me Jingshu."

Chu Yan was taken aback by this smile.

This Feng Jingshu looked plain and unpretentious, with ordinary facial features, but for some reason, when she smiled, she gave people a feeling of spring breeze, as if her ordinary face became vivid, giving people a comfortable and comfortable feeling.

Chu Yan was stunned for a moment, and then realized that maybe she was smiling very sincerely, her eyes were watery, and her smile was shallow, making people feel as if she would completely relax under such a smile.

This is the first time that Chu Yan has realized so profoundly in real life that it turns out that a person's beauty does not lie in his appearance, but temperament is the most important thing.

Probably just like Chen Daoming, he is not very handsome, but the older he is, the more charming he is, and there is a kind of temperament in every gesture, which makes people can't help but sigh his charm.

The woman in front of me is probably the same, Feng Jingshu, really lives up to her name.

Chu Yan believed in Xiao Che's vision—he was an upright person, and he had always done his best for the prince. It could be said that he would be a good general for the prince in the future.

At the same time, she also believed in the prince's vision - since he was able to summon Feng Jingshu to accompany her, it must be because he was sure that Feng Jingshu would go this trip with her smoothly.

It seems that this woman really has something special about her.

Seeing her smile, Chu Yan held her hand and chatted, and soon became close to her.

Feng Shi can indeed make the person she talks to feel very comfortable, she is smart and gentle, she does not show her sharpness, but she is not false.

Chu Yan asked her if Xiao Che went to the battlefield, would she be frightened if she was alone at home, she smiled and said that Xiao Che would send someone to deliver a letter every few days, it is inevitable to be worried on weekdays, but it is precisely because of After getting rid of that worry, the joy of receiving the letter becomes even more precious.

Chu Yan asked her what books she read on weekdays, and she honestly said that she didn't like to read the Four Books and Five Classics, but liked to read, write, read and write poems and operas. Women's "must-read textbook".

Chu Yan laughed, not only felt that her honesty was commendable, but also sympathized with this kind of compulsory textbooks that do not like to read rigid rules.

All in all, Chu Yan really wanted to get close to Feng Jingshu.

She has lived in the palace for too long without a single friend, and now she finally has someone to accompany her, and because of the different identities of the other party, she doesn't have to worry about the conflict of interests between the two, and she doesn't have to worry about what she can say and what she can't say, I felt very comfortable.

In the end, it was Wan Xi who was ordered by the crown prince to come to remind them, "His Royal Highness, Mrs. Xiao, it's almost time, it's time to go."

Hearing this, Chu Yan stood up and held Feng Jingshu's hand, her eyes were bright and she smiled, "Let's go."

What is waiting for her outside the palace?
The scrutinizing gazes of the ladies of the family, courtiers and noble ladies, the Xiao family's attentive and slightly alienated hospitality, or something else exciting?

Chu Yan suddenly felt as if she had been given blood, and went back to her old college days, spent a long time memorizing and reviewing, and finally had to take the exam, feeling anxious and looking forward to it.
