The Evil Emperor Pursues His Wife: Sheng Chong Shifei

Chapter 49
Princess Xiyue's question made Shangguan Qing a little shy, but he couldn't tell the identity of that person, so he shook his head and said no.

"In this case, what do you think of my husband's younger brother, Liu Jinshu? His wife left early, and he has only one daughter under his knees. This year, she is three years old. You will be the matriarch of the family when you come here."

Xiyue looked at Shangguan Qing expectantly.

This woman's methods of treating trauma are superb, and she is also a master at cultivating vitality, so she is suitable to be the daughter-in-law of the Liu family.

In the future, my brother-in-law Liu Jinshu will go out with her husband and bring Shangguanqing with her. She can be a female doctor, a female general, and she can help the Liu family.

Xiyue wanted to detain Shangguan Qing.

Shangguan Qing shook her head and declined politely: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, I don't want to think about marriage right now."

Xiyue did not give up, and persuaded: "If you are not at ease, I will call the brocade book to have a look with you."

Shangguan Qing still shook her head.

"I know that your daughter's family is shy. You gave up Qianshui, and you were heartbroken. But you can't stay married forever. You are still young and don't understand these things. I won't treat you badly."

Seeing that Xiyue did not give up, Shangguan Qing showed her trump card and said, "Your Highness, the Shangguan family has no control over my marriage."

"Why?"

"When I offered the medicine, I exchanged a document from my father. The Shangguan family is not allowed to interfere with my marriage, and I will not take a dowry of a copper coin from the Shangguan family."

Xiyue was a little dazed, this would mean severing the relationship, Shangguan Wenhe would actually agree.She guessed that Shangguan's house was restless, and recalling Shangguan Xiao's attitude towards Shangguan Qing, she understood a little.This is the daughter of the mistress making things difficult for the concubine, which is common in official families.

Thinking of this, Xiyue felt more pity for Shangguan Qing, and wanted to match Shangguan Qing with her uncle even more.But Shangguan Qing had already refused, and Xiyue couldn't bring it up again, so she started talking about some gossip.

Shangguan Qing played the audience very well.She thought that Shangguan Xiao would interject once in a while to impress Xiyue, but Shangguan Xiao seemed to have lost his soul, all his spirituality was gone, and he didn't say a word until he left the princess mansion.

Has this become a taboo gourd?Shangguan Qing was puzzled, she really didn't bother to ask, what Shangguan Xiao wanted to do, just let her do it, she didn't need Shangguan Qing to hold on to breaking the sky.

For the next nine days, Shangguan Qing went every two days and gradually removed the sutures from Xiyue's wound.

On the 16th, the last set of sutures was removed. Shangguan Qing cleaned up the wound on Xiyue's face with warm liquor, and showed Xiyue a bronze mirror.

"It will take seven days for the pinhole to heal. Your Highness still can't touch the water. You can return to normal diet first. I heard that Your Highness likes to eat fish soup. You can have a good taste tonight."

Xiyue carefully looked at the wound on her face, the fine pinholes were still there, if the stitches removed earlier had healed, Xiyue was really worried.Regardless of the small pinholes, the wound is healing very well. It is difficult to see the scars without getting close. Touching the wound feels that the flesh of the wound is a bit hard.

Shangguan Qing explained next to him: "When the external vitality invaded the injured place, the internal vitality gathered to resist. The place where the two sides fought was heavily fortified, and this small hard lump was formed. The deeper the wound, the bigger the hard lump. A wound like His Highness, It is very difficult for the hard lump to go back."

"Will it be seen?"

"Cover it up with foundation, if you can't see it, what kind of rouge does your Highness usually use?"

When the two talked about rouge and gouache, Xiyue asked the female official to show Shangguan Qing a sample. Contrary to expectations, the rouge used by Xiyue seldom had things like lead white, but was mostly refined with medicine.

Xiyue laughed and said, "People around you wore it out, saying that cosmetics such as white lead are poisonous, and now no one uses white lead on the market."

"Lead white is indeed poisonous, but the toxicity is not strong, but long-term use will cause loss of appetite, anemia, abdominal pain and other symptoms. The reason why lead white appears white is because of anemia, and lead poisoning, which also causes..."

Shangguan Qing didn't continue talking, and when she said the word "lead poisoning", she already realized that she had said too much.In particular, lead poisoning may cause infertility. In this case, it cannot be said in your circle. Once it spreads, bad use will be inevitable, and she is powerless to stop it.

"What will it cause?" Xiyue couldn't give up.

"It will make people poor and weak, and cause various limb pains." Shangguan Qing mentioned another symptom of lead poisoning, avoiding sensitive topics.

"So that's the case, Qing'er really has a long history of family education."

Shangguan Qing showed a sad expression, Xiyue hurriedly said, "I'm sorry."

She is really a considerate princess. Shangguan Qing withdrew her sad expression and explained to Xiyue the tricks of makeup. Xiyue's face injury was not healed yet. They called twelve ordinary-looking female officials. Features, customized different makeup styles for them, discarding the "bad" apple red and red lips, and showing all the makeup techniques she learned when she was a spy.

Twelve slim and beautiful women were drawn by Shangguan Qing.

"There are no ugly women in this world, only women who can't dress up." Shangguan Qing said something that modern people understand.

Xiyue looked at the twelve ordinary female officials who turned into beautiful beauties, a little envious and jealous, and also felt a little sense of crisis.

"Qing'er, if only you could stay by my side all the time."

"When your Highness misses me, you can send someone to call me at any time."

"That's right." Xiyue showed a bright smile, she took Shangguan Qing's hand, and said kindly: "When my injury is healed, you must help me put on makeup."

"It's the shape design. As long as His Highness likes it, Qing'er will do her best."

"I believe you."

After making an appointment to meet in seven days, Shangguan Qing left the Princess Mansion, and finally heaved a sigh of relief. Passing by the streets in the city, she opened the curtains in a good mood to enjoy the noisy and bustling streets of the capital.

It was time to start her career.

Back at Shangguan's house, I saw a group of chariots and horses leaving from a distance. The decorations on the chariots and horses were the common aristocratic chariots and horses in the capital. It should be a friend of my father who came to visit.Shangguan Wenhe was in high spirits when he served as the imperial censor, and officials and literati came to visit every day.

The carriage entered through the corner gate and stopped in front of the moon gate in the inner garden. Every time Shangguan Qing came back, he would walk back to Luoxia Garden from here.

When passing through the garden, Shangguan Qing saw some maidservants hiding in the distance and pointing at her. Ever since Shangguan Qing stabbed people at home, no one dared to point at her for a long time.

Shangguan Qing felt awkward and asked the accompanying maid to inquire about the news.

After returning to Luoxie Garden, washing and changing clothes, Shangguanqing sat down and drank a cup of tea. The maid who inquired about the news hurried back and reported: "Girl, Mrs. Shangguan has arranged a marriage for you. I heard that we have exchanged documents. ultimatum."

"What?" Shangguan Qing frowned, anger rising in her heart.

She had already guessed that Mrs. Shangguan would not fall in love with her easily, but she never expected that this old woman would go so far.
