Chapter 248: Reborn
Soon, it was time to choose a concubine for the crown prince.
Xue Jinyi dressed up, carrying a silver-red skirt, and turned around in front of Pu Yangxuan.
Pu Yangxuan raised his hand to protect her carefully, nodded and said, "It's very beautiful." ”
Seeing the little smugness on her face, he leaned over and pecked her red lips, leaving a light red mark on his own lips as well.
Xue Jinyi was not annoyed, and raised her hand to wipe the red lipstick off his lips with a smile.
"Be careful in the palace." Pu Yangxuan advised: "I will find a way to go over and see you, and my aunt's eyeliner in the palace will also secretly protect you." ”
"I see." Xue Jinyi thoughtfully stroked the placket of the official uniform for him, "You should go to the official office." If it's early, I'll go to the government office to find you, okay? ”
"Okay." Pu Yangxuan rubbed her hands, "I'll wait for you." ”
Xue Jinyi hugged him, and after sending him out of the main courtyard, she returned to the room to make the final finishing touches to ensure that there would be no mistakes on her body, and then came to Chunfang Pavilion on time in the middle of the day.
There were several harem concubines drinking tea and laughing in the house, and she stepped forward to greet them one by one.
Concubine De looked at the woman in front of her with some surprise, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and I feel that Princess Chu is a little different." ”
Listening to her words, the other concubines looked at Xue Jinyi curiously, some people remember that when they chose the crown princess last time, they had seen this eldest lady of the Weiguo Mansion, but it was obviously an ordinary girl that time, and she even looked a little ugly in a group of flowery little girls.
"This ...... Is it really the princess of Chu? ”
Before anyone could respond, the shouts of the attendants were heard outside.
"The crown princess has arrived."
Except for Concubine De and Concubine Xian, the rest of the concubines got up one after another and respectfully saluted the woman who walked in proudly.
Xue Fangyi was so arrogant that she didn't even give these people a straight eye, came to Concubine De and Concubine Xian, and after a hasty salute, she sat down directly.
"Sit down." There was some disdain in her cold tone.
These concubines, none of them have a good thing, and they are dressed so charmingly, which makes Queen Cai unhappy, and she will also be unlucky.
Everyone looked at each other and didn't take it seriously.
She is the wife of the prince, and she is from a famous meritorious family, so she has this arrogant qualification.
Xue Jinyi was silent and looked at Xue Fangyi a few times.
She wore a thick layer of rouge gouache on her face, presumably to hide her unsightly complexion, but it caused her makeup to be a little stiff, and she looked twenty years older than her actual age.
The others also noticed this, and their eyes became subtle when they thought of the rumors in the palace recently.
Where could Xue Fangyi not notice the eyes of those sluts, and her face couldn't help but be embarrassed.
Concubine De found out, and said with a smile: "Crown Princess, you are really dressed up today, that step shake was given to you by the queen mother not long ago, right?" ”
The crown princess is dressed up like this, isn't it just to be beautiful, is someone praised?
Xue Fangyi's face improved a little at this time, and when she drank tea, she casually glanced at the people around her, and somehow, her eyes stayed on the corner of a silver-red skirt.
She raised her eyes, her eyes showing confusion, "Who is this?" ”
She didn't remember that the concubines who could be on the road on today's occasion had such a person.
Could it be that the emperor canonized a newcomer again?
Concubine De didn't speak, and Wei Zhaoyuan next to her covered her mouth and smiled: "Crown Princess, is this your sister Princess Chu?" Sure enough, Princess Chu has really changed a lot in the past few months? ”
"The crown princess is good." Xue Jinyi bowed generously to Xue Fangyi, with a gentle and kind smile on her face.
Xue Fangyi's eyes widened in disbelief, thinking that what appeared in front of her was just a phantom.
Compared with the day she returned to the door, Xue Jinyi's skin was like white and smooth tofu, which could be broken by blowing, and the beauty and touching made her heart jealous in an instant, and her voice was not as hoarse as before, like dingdong spring water, soft and crisp.
Xue Jinyi seems to have been reborn, and there is no longer the ugliness and vulgarity of the past.
"You ......," Xue Fangyi said with difficulty, "How did you become like this?" ”
The concubines also wanted to ask this question the most, and looked at Xue Jinyi with curiosity and inquiry.
Xue Jinyi is very satisfied that everyone's eyes are focused on her, who does not want the women in the harem to be more and more beautiful, it is best to stay young forever, so that they can have the capital to compete for the emperor's favor and get the endless glory and wealth and the envy of everyone.
Xue Fangyi almost shouted impulsively, wanting to tell Xue Jinyi to shut up.
This cheap girl entered the palace with the appearance of a fox, isn't it just to get praise from everyone, and then share the secrets of beauty and become the focus?
She didn't want to fulfill the wish of the cheap girl, but she couldn't lose the demeanor of the crown princess in front of the public, so in the end she could only look at Xue Jinyi with resentment and speak with a smile.
"I'm not going to hide it from you, when I was looking for Buddhist scriptures at home, I came across a few prescriptions for nourishing my face and conditioning my body, and I invited a doctor to come and see it and formulated a way to regulate my body. I followed what the doctor said, carefully conditioned, and finally saw results. ”
"Princess Chu remembers Fang Zi, can you tell us about it?" Wei Zhaoyuan hurriedly asked.
Xue Jinyi said: "That recipe was specially formulated for me by the doctor. The doctor said that each person's physical condition is different, and the effect of using the same prescription is also different. ”
"That's ......" Wei Zhaoyuan was a little pity.
The other concubines were the same as her, especially looking at the beautiful and moving appearance of the Chu Palace, as if a kitten was scratching their hearts.
There are many rules in the palace, and they can't bring outsiders like the doctor into the palace, let alone let the doctor show them, obviously the way to look good is in front of them, but they can't do anything.
Xue Fangyi coughed twice and said in a tone of lesson: "Princess Chu, your recipe is inexplicable, and this country doctor is far inferior to the imperial doctor in the palace. Don't fool you with all that mess. In this palace, no one can talk nonsense. ”
The joyful atmosphere in the room suddenly dropped to freezing, and everyone was sorting out hairpins, clothes, or drinking tea, trying to hide the embarrassment.
"Didn't Princess Chu say it?" Xue Jinyi was about to speak, when a charming female voice sounded, interrupting her, "She found it when she was looking for Buddhist scriptures......"
Everyone followed the prestige, only to see a beautiful woman in a gorgeous costume coming step by step, first to Xue Fangyi, Concubine De, and Concubine Xian, and then continued to speak.
"Think about it again, Princess Chu is a person who is favored by the Bodhisattva, doesn't this mean that this is the Buddha's intention to let Princess Chu discover and let her restore her original appearance?"
When everyone heard this, they felt that it made sense.
Wei Zhaoyuan smiled: "What Sister Fan said is reasonable. ”
Xue Fangyi glared at Fan Zhaoyi, and her face became ugly again.
Queen Cai always says that she is a waste, but how good is Queen Cai herself? Can't even deal with a little Zhaoyi, let her son suffer in vain, and have the face to sprinkle fire on her head?
