After my soul traveled to ancient times, I don't want to be cannon fodder
Chapter 77: Qionghua Palace Makeup
Zhong Ning knelt below, listening to the imperial edict of enthronement, and his heart suddenly became clear.
Just as in the book, she was canonized as Princess Zhaohua.
But before entering the palace, she had asked Qi Yu to tell the emperor about Yang Ying's identity. She spoke rudely when she met the emperor today, and the emperor seemed quite angry.
Unexpectedly, the position of princess would fall upon her.
She had already made preparations for Yang Ying to enter the palace to be canonized. After all, according to the book, she was the true pearl left by the emperor among the people.
Now it seems that the royal family's ruthlessness is not just talk. Her previous guess has come true. If Yang Ying had not replaced her and entered the palace, her current identity as a bandit's daughter alone would be enough to make the emperor feel uncomfortable.
Not every man can accept being cuckolded by a woman he once had, especially an emperor who has a strong sense of self-esteem and a desire to save face.
If Yang Ying was really like Xia Ziwei in "My Fair Princess", with a devoted mother who waited for her all her life, she might be able to influence the emperor.
Unfortunately, she didn't.
Her hope of having her royal blood recognized by the royal family was doomed to be in vain.
Zhong Ning did not feel embarrassed at all about this.
Her life experience was not given by me, and I have fulfilled my promise to her. I have already conveyed the message to the emperor.
Whether to accept or not is up to the emperor.
What does it have to do with her?
Thinking of this, Zhong Ning took the imperial edict and kowtowed to thank the emperor for his grace.
"That's great, Sister Zhong, we can meet often from now on." Murong Xin said with a smile, holding Zhong Ning's arm.
A trace of sadness flashed across Murong Lan's eyes. She had just made two friends, but they would be separated from each other in the future.
Zhong Ning saw what she was thinking, patted her little hand, and comforted her, "We can communicate in the future. You can write to us anytime you want!"
"Yes, I will!" Murong Lan nodded vigorously.
If she has any problems in the future, she will write to them.
She has now discovered that she has been trapped in the inner house for many years, her mind is really not very bright and very limited. Without Sister Zhong's guidance, she is afraid that she will easily put her whole heart and soul on a man.
Sister Zhong is right, love yourself first before you love others!
Everything should be based on your own wishes. If the overall situation cannot be changed, then try to live more relaxedly in this overall situation!
"I know where Zhaohua Palace is, Sister Zhong, I'll take you there!" Murong Lan took Zhong Ning's hand and walked out of the palace together.
A large group of servants followed behind.
As they walked, Zhong Ning realized something was wrong and suddenly turned to Murong Xin and asked, "This is not right. Where are my gold and house?"
Murong Xin: ………
"Don't worry, Sister Zhong. The Princess's Mansion is probably already preparing. As for the gold, I have some. I'll give it all to you later!"
Zhong Ning couldn't help but tapped her nose and said, "I don't want it. I'll ask the emperor for it later!"
The servants behind all looked at each other in bewilderment!
This hidden gem among the people is so beloved that they will have to think twice before serving her in the future!
Murong Xin touched his nose and couldn't help but mourn for his father!
Soon, the group arrived at the Qionghua Palace!
The outside of the hall is decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, while the inside is beautifully furnished with everything you need.
The beams are made of cloud-top sandalwood, the lamps are made of crystal jade disks, the curtains are made of pearls, and there is also a six-pillar, five-eaved, gold-carved step-out bed made of agarwood.
Beside the bed hung a curtain of the color of Xiang Fei's shark silk, embroidered with crabapple flowers in pearl and silver thread.
Zhong Ning touched the famous porcelain and jade articles displayed on the antique shelf, and felt the antique agarwood bed.
It really is a royal palace!
The royal splendor and majesty are revealed everywhere.
On the dressing table, there were several makeup boxes filled with various jewelry inlaid with gold and jade, as well as various makeup tools, such as rouge, black eyeliner, pearl powder and the like.
The Huanghuali carved wardrobe is filled with princess costumes of various styles.
There were also two head palace maids, six junior palace maids, one chief eunuch and one deputy chief eunuch, four junior eunuchs, and two maids.
Murong Xin enthusiastically recruited a young palace maid who knew how to do makeup, and asked her to do Zhong Ning's makeup, while she helped choose jewelry and clothes.
Murong Lan picked out a pleated Ruyi moon skirt, paired with a silver-red and gold-embroidered peony collar, and a light gold satin tassel jade pendant.
The little palace maid helped to comb a single spiral bun, which was folded like a spiral and placed on the top of the head.
It is paired with a gold-inlaid ruby flower seal carefully selected by Murong Xin, a red gold phoenix hairpin with a pearl, and red gold earrings with hanging pearls.
The whole person looks extremely luxurious.
Zhong Ning felt dizzy and couldn't help but pull out the two hairpins, and then embellished them with some velvet flowers. She wore a tourmaline scented bead bracelet on her hand and a ruby inlaid Ruyi necklace on her chest.
There were already many hangings, and the little palace maid was still adding more. Zhong Ning was so scared that she quickly stood up and backed away, "Enough, enough, I'm already very tired, just keep it simple."
After saying that, she took off the red gold armlets, Ruyi armor, and pearl necklaces that she had been forced to wear.
I suddenly felt lighter all over and felt much more comfortable.
Murong Xin looked at her disapprovingly, "That's what a princess should be like. Sister Zhong, just get used to it!"
Uh... I can’t get used to it, it’s really a bit heavy.
In modern times, she wore almost no jewelry, and at most only a watch.
When her makeup was almost done, Murong Xin suggested that they take her to meet Concubine Wu. Zhong Ning asked curiously, "Don't we have to meet the Empress?"
Murong Xin shook his head slightly, "I haven't seen my mother for many years!"
Zhong Ning then realized that the queen had been secluded in the palace for five years, wholeheartedly serving Buddha and not seeing anyone.
Zhong Ning followed Murong Xin and Murong Lan all the way to Xianyang Palace.
On the way, they passed by the Imperial Garden and met many concubines of lower rank. After greeting each other, they whispered to each other as Zhong Ning walked away:
[I heard that this is your Majesty's princess who was exiled to the common people. She looks quite decent, but I wonder what her character is like?]
[Growing up among the common people, without any famous teacher to guide him, his nature is naturally wild and difficult to tame.]
[Your Majesty, you are such a fool. Isn't it just causing trouble for yourself by bringing such a wild girl here?]
The envoys from the Western Rong and Northern Di tribes are still in Kyoto, and they are all very curious about this common princess that His Majesty has specially sent the Black Dragon Guards to pick up. I'm afraid she will make her debut soon.
[To be honest, Princess Zhaoyang and Princess Anle really look alike]
[It's only 60% likeness. Is Concubine Wu looking for a replacement for herself after marrying off her daughter? I don't know what Princess Zhaoyang is thinking. She's still in the palace!]
Zhong Ning's five senses were very sharp, and all these discussions entered her ears. She looked carefully at the two girls holding her arm in arm and couldn't help asking, "You are so open and aboveboard, aren't you afraid of being recognized?"
