In the end, Zhao Jun was still afraid that he would really remember something about the past, so he changed the topic with a smile: "Go and get Le Ji for me, it's in the grid in the corner."

Yu Bai walked forward according to his words, and took out a book from a pile of books, but for some reason, he took a large piece with him.

Yu Bai: "..."

He finally realized first-hand what Zhao Jun said "who deserves what to say"—this is an authentic double standard.If I were a little palace maid, I am afraid that I will be scolded severely, even Li Dehai will be scolded.However, Zhao Jun just held the teacup, gloating and laughing out loud: "It's sleazy, pick it up and see what it is."

That is a map of beauties.

Hibiscus is not as good as beauty makeup, and the wind from the water palace comes with the fragrance of pearls and emerald greens.Even if she is trapped on paper, the beauty still does not lose half her demeanor.

Zhao Jun glanced at the paintings all over the floor, let Yu Bai roll them up one by one, and smiled deliberately: "What do you think, Ah Bai?"

Yu Bai's eyes happened to fall on a woman in a red dress with brows and eyes full of spring water, and his heart turned: "Very beautiful."

Zhao Jun raised his eyebrows: "Very beautiful?"

Yu Bai raised his head and looked at the emperor with incomparably sincere eyes: "Very beautiful."

Zhao Jun shook the scroll and threw it back into Yu Bai's arms: "I also think it's very beautiful."

"That……"

Can you accept a concubine then?Yu Bai felt that most of the courtiers probably didn't want Zhao Jun to be concubine, so he had better change his mind quickly and have a few children, so as not to bother him.

Facts have proved that Yu Bai's thinking is still too simple.

Zhao Junbu went out to tell Li Dehai a few words—since Eunuch Li, a senior eunuch practitioner, had Yu Bai, an excellent future successor, his workload suddenly eased, and he was standing outside the palace gate basking in the sun enjoying his retirement ahead of schedule.

Not long after, Yu Bai stared blankly at the brightly colored flowers in front of him.Zhao Jun stroked his chin in satisfaction: "Try?"

Makeup powder, lip balm, rouge, snail cream, and many other things that Yu Bai couldn't name, were neatly packed in the pear blossom wooden box, and when opened, they gave off a strange fragrance.

"This rouge is made of rose petals of different shades, pounded into pulp, filtered with spun yarn to get the juice, and then the newly reeled silk is cut into the size of the mouth of the rouge jar, soaked in the rose juice, and completely soaked. Then take it out and dry it in the sun. It’s so cumbersome to make this small box.” Zhao Jun said as he cut off a small square of red silk cotton, soaked it in warm water, and the faint red color was diffused.

"...Your Majesty is knowledgeable."

It turned out that Zhao Jun had this preference.When you think about it carefully, it's no wonder that when you are an emperor, you must have a good appearance, and you can't go to the court with a blank face every day. That's not to tell people who are different, "I'm dying, come and take my throne."

But he soon discovered that these rouge powders were aimed at him.

Yu Bai tried his best to resist: "This minister is a man, I don't understand these things, and I'm afraid I will spoil these precious things."

"There are plenty in the palace, so I'm not afraid of spoiling it." As he spoke, Zhao Jun opened a box of peach pollen.

Yu Bai stiffened his neck, closed his eyes as if he was dead, and let Zhao Jun scribble on his face like a child.

If Zhao Jun hadn't been the emperor who held the power of life and death, he would definitely have smashed these bottles and cans on this guy's face now - this was Yu Bai's inner voice at this time.

Spring is shining, and a gentle breeze passes through the hall, and a corner of the thin curtain is raised.Zhao Jun moved slowly and focused, as if he was dealing with fragile glass and pearls, and his every move showed that he was enjoying the process of dressing up Yu Bai. In stark contrast, Yu Bai had a wooden face like a Puppet dolls being manipulated at will.

"My craftsmanship is not bad, how can I put on such an expression of resignation to death?" Zhao Jun looked at the rouge in the box for a while, and then looked at Yu Bai, and felt that the color seemed to be brighter.

Yu Bai probed: "Your Majesty... like rouge and gouache?" The emperor's preference is for these girls' things, and it is really not a glorious thing nowadays.

Zhao Jun smiled and didn't answer.He has been immersed in power since he was a child, and he has learned the way of the emperor, how could he pay attention to girls' things like rouge and gouache, he just found an excuse and took the opportunity to eat some tofu.

What's more, he also felt that Yu Bai's appearance with makeup was very beautiful.

The young man in the mirror has red lips and white teeth, and the paleness that has just recovered from a serious illness is completely covered by peach blossom powder and rouge.

Yu Bai has not yet lost his crown, and has always followed the current practice of wearing a headband. His black hair is tied high behind his head, and a few strands fall on both sides of his cheeks, hiding the looming eyebrows.However, Zhao Jun stretched out his hand and untied the dark blue hair tie, and the ink hair poured down in an instant.

Yu Bai: "..."

He felt as if he had become a rag doll played by a child, letting Zhao Jun paint his eyebrows, draw his eyes, tie his hair and dress in a playful way, and he had to hold him in his arms to appreciate his achievements from time to time.

He watched Zhao Jun take out a white jade hairpin from the wooden box, and compared it carefully: "I will crown you next year, how about it?"

The white jade was warm and radiant, running across the long jet-black hair, loosely tied into a knot.

"Your Majesty looks very skilled."

Zhao Jun said it lightly: "It was difficult when I was young, and sometimes I could only eat leftovers. Naturally, I can only do these things by myself. Thinking about it this way, it is not a waste of effort."

Yu Bai nodded silently: "Your Majesty will have a queen in the future, and he will be able to raise his eyebrows and be harmonious."

——He mentioned "Queen" on purpose.

That one kiss is enough to explain many things.He had to think, had to think ahead.

He looked at himself in the mirror, and the eyes in the mirror were also staring at him, and there were emotions that he couldn't tell clearly in the eyes.He seemed to be trapped in a warm pool, surrounded by the warm clear water under the sun, and he was unwilling to leave comfortably, but there were black and green vines growing in the depths of the pool, which rolled him up and dragged him into the dark bottom of the water. until he died of suffocation.

Zhao Jun stood behind him, Yu Bai couldn't see his expression, he could only see the hands on his shoulders from the bronze mirror.The fingertips of those hands brushed across the protruding bone at the back of his neck intentionally or unintentionally, gliding over his skin like a dragonfly on water, as if a little force could sever his throat.

Something from the past suddenly flashed in Yu Bai's mind.In that vague past, it seemed that such a pair of hands once clamped his wrists, strangled his jaw, and locked him firmly in the beautiful bed that was darkened by the sun.

The fragrance is faint, and the hibiscus tent is warm.

……

Everything ends with the sound of the pear blossom wooden box being gently closed.He heard Zhao Jun's voice: "Abai wants me to marry a queen?"

The memory suddenly receded, and Yu Bai regained his composure.

This is really not a difficult question to answer, after all, how can an emperor live without an offspring?Not to mention that now that the Jiang family has fallen, the court has long since returned to its heart, and there has been no trouble with foreign relatives, the concubine conferment is to maintain the balance of the court, that is... what is it?

"A country cannot live without a descendant" and "The queen is the mother of the country"—for some reason, these high-sounding rhetoric that had been prepared earlier got stuck in Yu Bai's throat, making him in a dilemma.

Zhao Jun seemed to smile slightly, got up and left from behind him: "The queen is not in a hurry, I will pick and choose carefully. You have also seen those portraits today, do you think they are good?"

Yu Bai was stunned for a moment, and saw Zhao Jun spread out those pictures of beauties one by one, and put them one by one like a few treasures.

"The Minister of the Ministry of Officials is from a noble family. The eldest daughter, Lin Qihua, is known as a virtuous and worthy queen. The Marquis of Kang Ning has made great achievements in the war and has only one daughter. Everyone in the whole family regards her as a jewel in the palm of her hand. If she wants to enter the palace, she must be a concubine. Here, the eldest granddaughter of Qin Tianjian has also reached the age of marriage, which is the one in front of you. Speaking of which, I have seen her once when I was young. She is so heroic and not like an ordinary girl..."

Zhao Jun took tea to moisten his mouth, and sighed: "There are not many suitable candidates, and there are not many, it is really not easy, how about Abai choose one for me?"
