Duke Wei's Mansion.
Xu Miaojin happily applied her lipstick in front of the bronze mirror. After using it for two days, she threw away all the rouge from before. It was too fragrant.
It felt good to the touch, and the color after applying it was also light and elegant. It was very suitable for her quiet personality.
His Highness really did not know where he got such a good thing.
Her heart felt warm.
"Miao Jin, are you there?" A mature voice sounded.
"Aunt? I'm here!"
The person who had come was Xu Da's concubine. Because she was not Xu Miaojin's biological mother, she was addressed as YiNiang.
"Why didn't you go to your big brother's treat?”
"YiNiang was afraid that you were sick, so she came to take a look.”
"No, I just don't like that kind of atmosphere. Besides, what can a pedantic big brother do? He's just setting me up for a blind date.”
"Aunt, tell him."
"I don't want to care about him hooking up with others in private, and he doesn't care about my matters either!”
Madam Xu glanced at her." Your stubborn temper is really like your father's."”
"YiNiang will accompany you to talk and enlighten you!”
"I heard that Third Brother and Eldest Brother are quarreling again?" Xu Miaojin asked.”
"Yes! Miao Yun wanted to go home to take a look, but Hui Zu refused to let her come back. He said that as the concubine of the vassal king, she should stay in the fief and could not leave at will.”
"That child Zengshou was brought up by Miao Yun since he was young. After Miao Yun got married, she rarely got together and often left.”
" He has a bad temper. When he heard Hui Zu's words, he couldn't hold it in any longer. The two of them almost fought!'
Xu Miaojin was smart and instantly understood Xu Huizu's concerns. He was just afraid that the King of Yan would take Xu Miaoyun back to Ying Tian at the critical moment of the fight for the throne.
Thinking of this, she disliked Xu Huizu's style of doing things even more. He placed dogma above human relations!
Madam Xu didn't want to get involved in these matters. She looked around and finally set her eyes on Xu Miaojin's faint but seemingly glowing lips.
"Miao Jin, your lips?"
"It smells so good! What kind of rouge did she put on?”
"Tell YiNiang!"
Xu Miaojin shook her head." It's not rouge. It's lipstick given to me by the third grandson!" Does YiNiang want to try?"
"Lipstick?"
When Xu Miaojin took out the exquisite lipstick, Madam Xu could not take her eyes off it.
"This is it?"
"Alright... What an exquisite packaging."
She couldn't put it down and smeared it on her lips. She felt that her lips were moist and a fragrance was refreshing. The lipstick seemed to blend perfectly with her lightly powdered cheeks!
His entire aura had instantly sublimated.~
She couldn't put it down.
When Xu Miaojin saw the light in Madam Xu's eyes, she knew something was going to happen. No woman could resist the charm of lipstick.
"Aunt, that's mine ~"
"Use less!"
"Oh... you... Ah."
Madam Xu forced a smile." I…" Of course he knew…This is yours."
Reluctantly, she handed the lipstick over. When Xu Miaojin placed it in the cabinet, Madam Xu suddenly felt empty in her heart.
It was as if he had lost something.
It had been six years since Xu Da had passed away. The loneliness she had felt in these six years was not as empty as this moment.
"Miao Jin, you said that this was a gift from the Third Imperial Grandson?”
"Yes, yes!"
Madam Xu stood up and left. Xu Miaojin asked,""YiNiang, where are you going?"
"Go out!"
A carriage was speeding along the road towards Zhu Yunyan's residence. Zhu Yunhao was wondering with Kuai Xiang if he could let his disciple open a few more cement factories.
"Your Highness, why do you need so much cement?”
"Ying Tian is the face of the Ming Dynasty. I saw many places with dirt roads. How can this be?”
"Send a memorial to Imperial Grandfather and ask the Ministry of Revenue to allocate funds to replace all the ground in Ying Tian with cement roads!”
"This way, you will have the imposing manner of a superior country.”
Kuai Xiang nodded.”
"Don't stay in the position of the head of the Ministry of Works for too long. You're the most shameless of my subordinates! It's embarrassing to say it out loud ~"
Kuai Xiang's face turned red. He looked at Yang Shiqi, who was writing calligraphy, and said,""Isn't that one?"
Yang Shiqi:
Thank you! He even specifically mentioned me!
"Your Highness, the wife of the Prince of Zhongshan is here." San Bao suddenly walked over.”
"Xu Da's wife? What is she doing here?"
"Should I invite her in?"
"No, no!" Zhu Yunwen pondered for a moment." It has always been taboo for the imperial grandson to collude with the generals, especially the women. The imperial grandfather may not care, but if Zhu Yunwen finds out, he will definitely make a fuss."”
"Be more steady!"
'Open the middle gate! He used the etiquette of a distinguished guest to guide her to the central hall and let all the servants stand at the side to watch!'
"To show my honesty!"
"Oh right, open the windows too. If there's an inspector, there's no need to chase him away. Let him report the situation here truthfully to Imperial Grandfather!”
San Bao's lips twitched. His Highness was still as careful as ever.
Not long after, the middle door opened. San Bao beat the gong and drum to welcome Madam Xu into the middle hall. Madam Xu was stunned. What was she playing at? Why did he feel that there was something wrong with his head?
Zhu Yunyu was sitting in the main seat in the imperial grandson's court clothes, and the servants on both sides were watching him.
This was…You want to interrogate me?
Madam Xu had a sudden idea, but she shook her head in an instant. She suddenly thought of Zhu Yunhao's character and understood.
He was afraid of breaking a taboo.
What a wonderful person.
"Please forgive me for not welcoming the wife of the King of Zhongshan!”
"ChenQie is truly sorry for disturbing Your Highness!”
" I wonder why you're here today?'
Madam Xu's eyes lit up." Your Highness gave Miao Jin a lipstick previously, and I couldn't bear to part with it. I wanted to ask if Your Highness still has it here. I can buy it at a high price!”
"Lipstick?"
"I was prepared!"
