"Ah, I'm so scared!" Lieyan patted his heart and shouted hurriedly, "Your majesty, Queen Mother Jin'ao, doesn't she want to rob you in front of the court?"
"You!!" The Queen Mother was so angry that she almost fainted, and her old face turned even red.
"If the Queen Mother must ask me to hand over Zhulan, then as a minister's wife, I can only endure the pain and give up love and obey the emperor's order. Who makes the Queen Mother go beyond the sky? I am just a small minister's wife, and the Queen Mother is alone
The order is given, how can I resist? Even if my heart is dripping with blood, I have to obey! It's just that the Queen Mother threatened my wife like this for a pot of flowers. It really doesn't sound good to say it out!" Lieyan took a breath and didn't know where to get it from.
He took out a handkerchief and put tears in the corners of his eyes.
On the side of Mu Tiankuang, the corner of his mouth was almost invisible, twitching again and again...
The seventh prince opposite him wanted to burst into laughter. Fortunately, as a member of the royal family, he always had good control.
The Seventh Prince endured it, and many courtiers even bit their tongues and endured it!
"Okay, okay, okay! The Aijia didn't say that you must hand over the Eight-Colored Zhulan! The Aijia didn't say anything." The Queen Mother was probably shocked, so she gave Fengling a hard look, dissing her.
He is too talkative and makes her lose face.
Fengling flattened her mouth in embarrassment.
"You know that the Queen Mother is kind-hearted and has a kind face. She will definitely not do anything to win over others. Besides, the Queen Mother is in the harem. What kind of beautiful flowers have she not seen? How can she be rare for a small flower?
The eight-color chrysanthemum, Queen Mother?" Lie Yan's face smiled like a flower, and the change in his expression before and after was really breathtaking!
It is said that the women in the harem can act, but looking at the one in front of me, her acting talent is even better!
The Queen Mother's old face twitched, and she fiercely forced out two words through her teeth, "Not bad."
"Actually, this woman does need to take care of herself, but just relying on a flower is too unreliable! As for my wife, I once bought two beauty elixirs by chance, and now I borrow flowers to offer them to Buddha.
To the two noblest women here."
The Queen Mother glanced at Lieyan with disdain and thought, no matter how good the panacea is, can it beat that eight-color chrysanthemum?
impossible!
Since it was impossible, she was naturally not interested in taking another look.
On the other hand, Concubine Gong was very happy after being praised so much by Lie Yan.
Now in this harem, everyone knows that apart from the Queen Mother, the woman with the highest status is her, Concubine Gong. Concubine Gong manages the Sixth Palace and acts as the queen. Not to mention, after being praised by Lie Yan for a few words, she immediately
There's a sense of elation.
Although his face was calm, there was a bit of joy in his eyes after taking the little red brocade box presented by Lie Yan.
When Lieyan saw Fengling taking the little brocade box and throwing it aside, he immediately shouted, "Ah, Queen Mother, such a good beauty medicine, you just throw it away like this! That's hard to find for a thousand dollars."
Object."
The Queen Mother hummed with a smile, "Then take it over and take a look."
Will you give me something that is hard to find? The Queen Mother was angry in her heart. She was still sulking because she could not get the eight-color chrysanthemum.
"The Queen Mother's expression means she doesn't believe it! My wife is an honest person. Since she is giving something to the Queen Mother and Concubine Gong, it is naturally the best panacea in the world." Lie Yan looked aggrieved and whispered,
"However, since the Queen Mother does not believe it, my wife is willing to give it a try in court to prove her loyalty. Please find an ugly woman, and you will know the truth after a test!"
The Queen Mother was slightly startled, but the curiosity in her heart was seriously aroused by Lie Yan.
This fierce flame doesn't look like it's going to fight an uncertain battle. In that case, the little brocade box presented may really be some kind of panacea for beauty.
But in the final analysis, she still likes the eight-color chrysanthemum more. She deliberately wants to make Lieyan look bad. She doesn't believe that there is really something comparable to the eight-color chrysanthemum in this world that can instantly make a woman's face radiant?
"Well, since Miss Lieyan is so kind, Caixia, go and help the Ai family and find the ugliest woman in the entire harem to come over and try out whether this magical elixir is true or not." When the Queen Mother read the words "miracle elixir", her words were filled with excitement.
"My servant has met the Queen Mother and the Emperor." His timid voice was as small as a mosquito.
When the palace maid saw the crowd coming to watch, she wished she could bury her face in the dust.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, she's really ugly! Look at the birthmark on her face! Half of her face looks like a green-faced fang!"
"Well, there's also that big mole next to her nose, tsk tsk tsk! She is really the ugliest woman in the world!"
"Yeah yeah!"
"Why are there such ugly women in this harem?"
"Can such a person pass the selection and be selected as a palace maid?"
"Queen Mother, this woman often comes to the imperial kitchen to deliver fresh vegetables. She is a servant of Liujiapu in the west of the city. She is not a palace woman."
"I'm just telling you! How can there be such an ugly woman in the palace!"
"It's so ugly, not to mention Your Majesty! It gives me nightmares even when I look at it!"
The servant of Liu's shop in the west of the city covered her face and cried softly. She didn't know why these people brought her here. Is it just to judge and humiliate her?
"Okay, okay, you all get out of the way!" Lieyan took the brocade box thrown by Fengling, met Fengling's provocative eyes, only hummed slightly, and stretched out his hands to push away the ministers, family heads and others who were watching.
.
"Queen Mother, please think clearly. I only have two boxes of my beauty pills, one for you and one for Concubine Gong. There are too many, but they are gone! If they are given to the Liu family
If my servants use it, then if the Queen Mother wants it again, it will be gone."
"Okay, Queen Mother, you haven't seen any good things before! Let us open our eyes and see how effective this elixir you are boasting about can be." Fengling sarcastically said with a smile.
"Okay!" Lieyan nodded and pulled the woman to sit down.
As soon as the brocade box was opened, a lingering fragrance spread throughout the hall.
Everyone's eyebrows and eyes jumped together.
The Queen Mother, who was leaning lazily, suddenly sat upright at this moment, and a bad premonition suddenly passed through her heart.
Such a subtle fragrance refreshes the mind just by smelling it. How could it be something vulgar?
Lieyan didn't care what everyone thought. As soon as he opened the brocade box, he took out one of the pure white pills and stuffed it into the mouth of Liu's shop in the west of the city. He crushed the red one in his hand and smeared it on the woman's face.
face.
"You will feel a little uncomfortable after a while, but don't worry, it won't do any harm to your human body. Instead, it will help you discharge some toxins from your body. Soon, all these spots and scars on your face will disappear.
It disappears, and the skin becomes hydrated and pink.”
"Is that true?" Fengling pursed her lips and chuckled, "What you say is better than what you sing. If it doesn't have any effect after a while, then just slap yourself in the mouth!"
"No." Concubine Liu was already angry because Lie Yan's words of "noble woman" offended her, and now she felt even more displeased with Lie Yan.
I always feel that this new daughter-in-law of the Mu family is very dishonest, and she is here to oppose her anyway!
Just because of her Lieyan's son, her own son was compared to her. Even as a gift of pills, Concubine Gong was lifted up and stepped down. The more Concubine Liu thought about it, the angrier she became. It was difficult for her to have the word "noble".
Despite her title, she is not as smart and capable as Concubine Gong. The emperor leaves all the affairs of the harem to Concubine Gong. She is a noble concubine, but she usually acts based on Concubine Gong's face. It is simply unreasonable!
In terms of status and nobleness, it is obvious that she, the noble concubine, is superior to Concubine Gong, but in terms of leadership position in the harem, it is not that Concubine Gong is superior to her, she is the most noble woman in the harem!
Damn it! The queen has been dead for many years, and the queen position has been vacant for many years. Everyone in the harem is eyeing that position. Concubine Liu thought she had a good chance of getting this position, but now it seems that the chance of winning is not as good as that of Concubine Gong.
.
"Okay." Lieyan was done and looked at the woman with a lowered face with satisfaction.
The woman's back was turned to everyone and her face was lowered. Naturally, no one could see her face clearly. However, everyone was very curious in their hearts. Is there really a magical elixir in this world that can make a woman's face glow in minutes?
Unlikely!
Even if it is Bacai Zhulan, you have to improve your body step by step. Only after twenty-four hours can you regain your youth. The effect is remarkable.
And could the medicine smeared by Lie Yan be better than the eight-colored Zhu Lan?
With this slight doubt, everyone looked at the man in Liu's shop who had his head lowered.
"Get the bronze mirror."
Lie Yan smiled faintly, stood beside the woman with his hands behind his hands, and said confidently, "You can raise your face now."
The woman timidly raised her head, and with just one glance, the audience gasped and gathered their eyes in surprise.
The porcelain cup in the Queen Mother's hand fell to the ground with a clang, and her old eyes stared blankly at the woman who looked up at her.
The woman was not an ordinary coward. She hurriedly knelt down on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, "The Queen Mother, calm down. The Queen Mother, calm down."
"Raise your head!!" The Queen Mother's voice contained an almost imperceptible tremor and excitement.
The woman raised her face again, a smooth and tender little face. Where could you see half a birthmark and a mole at this moment? It was as flat as a smooth and discernible mirror.
At this time, someone from the palace handed the woman a mirror.
The woman took one look, jumped up to three feet high, and screamed with excitement, "This, is this me? This, is this me?"
Everyone nodded, they were the ones who had witnessed the miracle with their own eyes. This woman suddenly transformed from a faceless and ugly girl into a lovely beauty. This change was really too big.
Everyone's hearts jumped violently, and thoughts came to their minds involuntarily.
