Chapter 82 Princess Lanling
After landing, Su Xian clapped his hands with a smile, looked at Yang Zhilan and asked, "You didn't climb up and eavesdrop, did you?"
Yang Zhilan turned away and just packed up the wooden ladder silently without saying a word.
Since she didn't answer, Su Xian took it as her consent. Besides, Yang Zhilan didn't talk much, so it didn't matter even if he overheard her.
Yang Zhilan came back after putting the wooden ladder away, just as Su Xian took off his coat and threw it on a wooden hanger nearby. When she passed by the hanger, she couldn't help but stop and sniff it.
"What's wrong?" Su Xian asked.
"It smells like powder." Yang Zhilan walked calmly past the clothes rack, returned to her bed, and lay down straight .
"..." Su Xian didn't say anything. After turning off the lights and lying on the bed, she said, "Wait until I get back. I'll buy you some rouge and powder, and some head ornaments and jewelry."
"I do not need."
"No! You need to."
Yang Zhilan: “?”
Su Xian smiled and said, "It's a happy decision. By the way, remember to use the rouge after you buy it. It would be best if you can smell the fragrance of rouge wherever you go."
After hearing this, Yang Zhilan finally understood what he was planning.
But she really didn't care about it, so she stopped talking, closed her eyes and went to sleep.
…
The next day.
Hebei Road, Shenzhou, Raoyang County.
Shenzhou borders the southern part of Yingzhou, and Raoyang County is adjacent to Leshou County and Hejian County where the capital of Yingzhou is located.
In other words, Raoyang County, Shenzhou, is very close to Yingzhou capital and Leshou County.
Today, clean water was poured on the streets of Raoyang County and yellow soil was used as the pavement. The Magistrate of Raoyang County personally led the officials of the government office 20 miles out of the city to welcome Princess Lanling!
Yes, Princess Lanling and her entourage arrived in Weizhou, on the border of Hebei Province, a few days ago. After traveling for several days, they finally arrived at Raoyang County, Shenzhou, which is adjacent to Leshou County, Yingzhou.
Soon, a magnificent guard of honor entered the city, and the people who came to watch lined the streets to welcome them, creating a very lively scene.
Princess Lanling is the youngest daughter of Queen Daliang, and her name is "Li Youqing".
"Princess Lanling" is her title, and as a princess, her rank is the same as that of a prince.
According to rumors, Princess Lanling was very beautiful, graceful, with a plump figure, a square forehead and a wide chin, representing the highest aesthetic standards of the Daliang Dynasty.
Her Majesty the Queen once praised her as "the most beautiful woman in our dynasty", "the most beautiful woman in the prosperous times", "a young girl who resembles me"...
For such a beautiful princess, her beauty has naturally spread throughout the country.
Those who wanted to see her beauty were as numerous as the fish in the river. In the Divine Capital alone, the line of people who wanted to be Princess Lanling's husband could stretch for hundreds of miles.
However, Princess Lanling's status is extremely noble, and she holds great power. No man who can catch her eye has appeared so far, so she has not yet married and is still a virgin...
Some people were ecstatic when Princess Lanling went to Youzhou to take charge. Even if they couldn't become the princess's husband, they would have no regrets in their life if they could see her beauty.
However, Princess Lanling spent most of her time sitting in a sedan chair during her journey and rarely met with local officials, which naturally frustrated the wishes of these people.
…
Raoyang County.
On the fairly wide street, team after team of soldiers or servants in distinctive armor walked by, and the crowds watching on the street were shocked by the luxury of the guard of honor.
"It is said that Princess Lanling is as beautiful as a fairy from heaven, and is rarely seen. I wonder if we can catch a glimpse of her this time?" someone in the crowd asked.
A scholar in a Confucian robe sneered, "You have never seen the world! Princess Lanling is beautiful, but it is more of a glory given to her by her status."
"I am not talented, but I have seen the most beautiful courtesan in the Jade Pavilion in the Divine Capital. She was a real beauty... As for Princess Lanling, apart from her status, she may not be more beautiful than the courtesan in the Jade Pavilion."
“…”
Just as the scholar finished speaking, Princess Lanling's luxurious sedan chair with eighteen bearers happened to pass by here. The side curtain of the carriage was suddenly opened by a pair of white wrists, revealing a beautiful face that could overturn a country...
"hiss!"
The scholar took a deep breath and his eyes widened as big as copper bells, as if he had seen something extremely shocking.
With a quick glance, the side curtain of the carriage had been lowered, and the face that had brought disaster to the country and the people had disappeared.
"Beautiful! So beautiful..."
The scholar in Confucian robes clenched his fists and muttered to himself: "Princess Lanling is indeed worthy of her reputation. The courtesan of the Pinyu Pavilion is only fit to be the princess's maid..."
“…”
Shortly after.
Princess Lanling and a group of her accompanying officials and servants moved into the Raoyang County government office.
Because Princess Lanling had the same rank as a prince, the officials in the prince's mansion, such as the royal tutor, the chief historian, the Sima, the advisor, the literary officer, etc., were also present in the princess's mansion.
The officials who came with them this time accounted for more than half of the people in the government office. With so many people gathered together, the entire lobby of the county government office had already been filled.
The magistrate of Raoyang County had no place to stay and could only serve in the corridor about four or five meters away.
Princess Lanling sat high up in the lobby of the county government office.
She was indeed as the legend said, graceful, elegant, and beautiful as a fairy from heaven. Ordinary people dared not even open their eyes to take a second look at her.
She had an intricate and exquisite peony-style hairdo, about seven inches high, with fluffy sideburns and a shiny bun. Behind the bun, there were two strands of hair, which were soaked in precious sticky juice, making it look smooth and moist.
With her head full of pearls and jade, she looks like a fairy mountain with all kinds of magnificent shapes and wonders, which is truly beautiful.
This is the true meaning of "cloud hair".
Her face was as red as a silver basin, her skin was as smooth as fat, and she was plumper than that of ordinary women. Her lips were red without any makeup, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, her cheeks were like peach petals, and her face was bigger than a bridal sedan. She could be called "flower-faced".
The most important thing is her figure. It is fuller than that of ordinary women, but definitely not fat, because her waist is very slender!
She has a voluptuous figure and the beauty of Yang Guifei.
Then there are the breasts, which are surprisingly bulging. In addition, the atmosphere in the capital is open, so the gorgeous palace skirt worn by Princess Lanling can be described as "soft|half-exposed breasts"...
Therefore, most people did not dare to stare at her closely . Except for the servants, officials and female officials around her, those who saw her for the first time would hold their breath and dare not make a sound.
Afraid of making a mistake and being doomed.
Because she is not an ordinary princess, she holds great power, or in other words, she has great power over the government and the country...
In the hall of the county government, after everyone stood still, Princess Lanling personally ordered all the officials in the palace to be sent to the surrounding counties to conduct inspections on her behalf.
After the arrangements were completed, Princess Lanling looked at a man in a dark green round-collared official robe and said, "Zhou Jishi , you are going to Leshou County to inspect on behalf of the emperor. You must be impartial and fair, and do not miss any link!"
"Yes, sir!" Zhou Jishi bowed his head.
"Then there is Tang Ju, the magistrate of Leshou County. I have heard that he is quite talented. He is also a descendant of the Tang family, so this inspection is an opportunity to test him."
"If this person is just a facade, I will not be lenient."
Her voice was obviously very pleasant to the ear, but it made everyone present feel cold in their hearts.
Along the way, Princess Lanling dealt with many officials, both big and small, and she was not just saying this for fun.
"I obey your command!"
Zhou Ji Shi did not dare to delay. He bowed and withdrew, then immediately .
