Li Yunshu wanted to explain, but he couldn't open his mouth because he was being stepped on.
He subconsciously grabbed the empress's ankles with both hands, trying to move her feet away.
But a powerful pressure came and pinned his hands to the wall, making him unable to move.
Pei Xuanji looked up at the sky and said coldly.
"Are you really not afraid that I will kill him?"
She still clearly remembers that when she really wanted to kill someone in Jingming Temple, a thunderbolt struck.
However, the sky was clear at this moment, without any abnormality.
Pei Xuanji's eyes flickered. Could it be that this guy's master could see through him and that he had no intention of killing him?
snort!
After a long while, there was no movement. The empress snorted coldly and slowly withdrew her feet.
Li Yunshu took a deep breath. He was almost suffocated by being stepped on just now.
He glanced at the empress's jade feet and felt a little regretful.
Without high heels, the cheongsam would be meaningless.
But then again, if the empress had been wearing high heels, she would probably have had more holes on her face.
Pei Xuanji didn't know what he was thinking, so she just questioned him again.
"There are so many clothing stores in the capital, and you only bought this one piece of clothing for me?"
Li Yunshu: I didn’t even buy one that opens to my waist!
"I am doing this all for your majesty's sake!"
"For my sake, you bought the slits here?"
Pei Xuanji looked down at the hem of her skirt. No matter how she stood, it couldn't cover her thighs.
Li Yunshu explained seriously.
"There are those with slits all the way down to the calf, which I don't think are suitable for Your Majesty."
"Why am I not suitable?"
To be honest, Pei Xuanji was quite satisfied with the dress she was wearing, except for the high slit.
She would have liked it if the sleeves were a little longer and the slit lower.
Of course, Li Yunshu wouldn't like that, he continued to argue.
"I know that Your Majesty is best at kicking, so this kind of dress with a wide slit is most suitable for you."
"you--"
Pei Xuanji wanted to refute, but when he saw the footprints on Li Yunshu's face that had not yet disappeared, he felt that what this guy said seemed to make some sense.
However, she was still not used to exposing her legs like this, and always felt a little awkward.
Li Yunshu seemed to see through her thoughts and suggested.
"If Your Majesty doesn't want others to see you, you can wear the black silk stockings I gave you earlier."
"Heh..." Pei Xuanji snorted coldly, "Do I still have to wear high heels?"
Li Yunshu nodded repeatedly.
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
"In your dreams!"
Pei Xuanji brushed her sleeves as usual, and when she realized that her sleeves were empty, she remembered that this dress had no sleeves.
Putting on black stockings herself is equivalent to cashing in the bet. This guy has a good plan.
"I just don't believe that I can't find a suitable dress in such a big capital."
Having said that, Pei Xuanji walked directly out of the yard.
Walking out of the yard, she glanced at the formation barrier above the capital again, her face a little gloomy.
If it weren't for this damn barrier, I wouldn't be trapped here.
You have to be restrained in everything you do here. You can't even give that increasingly outrageous guy a good beating.
If we make too much noise, that old woman from Western Zhou will definitely show up. It’s troublesome just thinking about it.
Pei Xuanji was walking on the street and soon saw the clothing store where Li Yunshu bought the cheongsam.
After all, this is the largest garment store in the capital, and it is located in a prominent location on the main street.
Li Yunshu followed the empress slowly and walked into the clothing store with his hands behind his back.
As soon as Pei Xuanji entered the door, the shopkeeper recognized Li Yunshu at a glance.
She thought the cheongsam didn't fit her well, so she came here to have it altered.
"Girl, what's the matter?"
Pei Xuanji glanced around the store.
"Do you have any ready-made clothes for sale?"
Li Yunshu shook his head slightly, then stretched out his hand, in which was placed an ingot of silver.
The shopkeeper took a quick glance and immediately understood.
"I'm sorry, but we only make clothes to measure and don't sell ready-made clothes."
Pei Xuanji was still unwilling to give up and continued to ask.
"How long does it take to make a piece of clothing?"
The shopkeeper glanced at Li Yunshu again and then spoke.
"It will take at least ten days."
Pei Xuanji turned his head and glanced at Li Yunshu, but Li Yunshu had already withdrawn his hand, looking as if it was none of his business.
Chapter 59: Minister Li’s righteousness!
Seeing that the empress had given up the idea of having the dress remade, Li Yunshu walked up to the shopkeeper as if nothing had happened and started chatting with him.
"I see that many of the dresses in your store are very unique. Who designs them?"
The shopkeeper naturally knew which dress Li Yunshu was referring to, and when she talked about this, she immediately became excited.
"Sir, you may not know that these are all from the State of Chu."
When she said this, her voice lowered a little.
"It is said that it was designed by a minister of the previous dynasty of Great Chu for the empress at that time."
Li Yunshu frowned slightly, feeling that this answer seemed familiar.
Thinking carefully, I immediately remembered the Shangpinpu in the capital of Da Chu. It is said that the stockings and high heels were also designed by the Shangshu Ling of the previous dynasty.
"It's him again..." At this moment, Li Yunshu was really interested in this Shangshu Ling, "Which Shangshu Ling is it?"
The shopkeeper shook his head.
"Then I don't know. I just heard that his last name seemed to be Li."
Hey!
Li Yunshu exclaimed, "Wow, he's from the same family."
"Thank you for clearing up my confusion, shopkeeper."
As he said this, he placed two ingots of silver on the counter.
Seeing that the two people were chatting enthusiastically, Pei Xuanji listened and turned to leave the clothing store.
In ten days, the barrier of the capital would have been lifted.
Even if it is custom-made, it is too late.
Looking at Pei Xuanji's back as she left, the shopkeeper supported his head with his arms and showed an admiring look.
Not to mention men, even a woman like her would find it amazing.
Even if the famous courtesan Dong Xiaowan from the capital stood next to her, she would probably be inferior to her.
Not until Pei Xuanji's figure disappeared from her sight did she lower her head slightly and look at the two extra silver ingots in her hand.
Walking out of the clothing store, Li Yunshu couldn't help but sigh. He was really grateful to Minister Li, who was truly a blessing to future generations.
Li Yunshu glanced at the empress again, but unfortunately, it was foggy and he couldn't see anything.
Ever since the empress left the house, a layer of fog has surrounded her, making it impossible for others to see through it.
However, Li Yunshu's mind had automatically blocked out the layer of fog.
It was a purple cheongsam, the collar of which was bulging high because of her chest, forming a beautiful arc, as if it would tear the clothes apart at any time.
The collar of the shirt is just right. If it is pulled up a little more, the hills and ravines will not be visible.
If you open one more point, the sense of mystery will be lost.
It is the swaying figure, vaguely visible, that is most fascinating.
Following the ribs, the body lines suddenly contract, the lower abdomen is flat without a trace of fat.
The slit of the cheongsam has the same effect as the neckline.
The height of the slit is so high that it seems revealing but not quite, which maximizes the temptation.
With one step, her slender legs appeared from the slit.
If you want to see it more clearly, the leg has already been retracted.
It's elusive and leaves people wanting more.
After the waist, the body lines expand again, turning into plump peach buttocks, which push the cheongsam up high.
To the extent that the slit of the cheongsam was always stretched open a little, revealing her round and slender thighs.
