Chapter 1003 Peony Blazing
In that moment.
There is a feeling of seeing a lifetime at first sight.
So many ordinary people were queuing up, and in front of them there were several pots cooking porridge, with hot smoke rising.
Behind the hot smoke, there was a person with a gentle expression standing there, talking with his head slightly lowered to the people who came to ask for porridge.
At such a distance, I couldn't hear what she said, but I could see that her hair was as black as clouds and her temples were as beautiful as a painting. A branch of cold plum blossom served as a hairpin to embellish her hair.
She was wearing a white dress and a red cloak with white fur trim.
The white color makes her face look as white as cream, while the red color makes her complexion rosy and more gorgeous.
Wearing such a wide and long cape that almost drags on the ground, she looks tall and slender.
"She is indeed a beauty, like a red plum blossom in the snow, radiant and beautiful, like a peony bathed in light, blooming with beauty, so conspicuous, so outstanding."
Lu Song felt that his praise was very objective. Who could not praise such a beauty?
Qingbao followed his gaze and saw it too.
She looked at her a few more times, and then said to Lu Song, "Master Lu, do you know why she is so conspicuous and outstanding?"
Lu Song was stunned for a moment, "Isn't it because of beauty?"
"I didn't say she wasn't beautiful, but what made her so conspicuous and outstanding was that bright red fox fur cape."
Qingbao paused and continued.
"Master Lu, look here, all you see are disaster victims, dressed in dusty clothes. They are cold and hungry, so they can't stand up straight. Most of them have their hands in their sleeves and their backs hunched."
"And then there are the officials, whose clothes are also gray-blue."
"There was a pile of cotton-padded clothes stacked next to her, all in gray or earthy blue. Among so many dull colors, how could she not stand out in such a dress and a bright red cape?"
Qing Bao added, "She was dressed warmly, and she was standing behind the pot. The fire was burning vigorously, and the hot smoke was rising. Naturally, she could stand straight, and her face was covered by the thin smoke, and the soft light was faint. How could she not be beautiful?"
He sneered.
Nanny Qing had told them this when she was teaching them.
Concubine Shu once cooked pear soup in front of a red clay stove in the snow. She wore a red cloak and had several palace maids and eunuchs kneeling beside her, which made her original beauty of 70% increase to 90%.
Then the emperor, who was still the crown prince at the time, passed by and was completely fascinated by her. After that, Concubine Shu regained the emperor's favor.
Nanny Qing once told them that as a woman, if you want to please your master, sometimes you have to be good at using your surroundings to highlight yourself.
When Qingbao said this, he quietly looked back at the carriage where the prince was, then shuddered and quickly looked away.
At that time, Nanny Qing said that the prince seemed to be not interested in women, so she had no choice but to ask them to pay more attention to him.
But when Qingbao thought about how she and Qingyin had once studied hard on how to climb into the prince's bed, she felt a chill in her heart.
I still feel sorry for the lady.
Fortunately, they were not destined to die, and the young lady went to Beijing just in time!
Otherwise, she and Qingyin would have been beheaded and fed to the wolves long ago.
Besides, even if the prince didn't twist their heads, she found it terrifying to think about becoming a bed-warming maid to serve a man.
Fighting for half a bed in the backyard is not as satisfying as seeing the world and making money with the young lady!
Qingbao was very grateful.
Lu Song was stunned by Qing Bao's words at first.
After a long while, he looked at Madam Hua again, and subconsciously paid attention to her red fox fur cloak, and even to the porridge pot in front of her.
The astonishment that lasted a thousand years at first sight had faded by more than half.
Lu Song: “???”
Qingbao must be poisonous.
Yin Yunting had also seen Madam Hua.
With just one glance, he knew that the person was Madam Hua.
After all, there is probably no one else in Subei who has such an outstanding appearance and temperament at this time.
Although what Qingbao said makes sense, Hua Niang's appearance and figure are really worthy of the name Peony.
In their line of work, everyone is outstanding.
As they got closer, the people kept looking at them.
Lu Zhaoling did not look at Madam Hua first. She was looking at the officials first.
On the way, Zhou Shiyue was wondering that something was wrong with the government in Subei City.
Moreover, these policemen are here to help Madam Hua maintain order, so Lu Zhaoling naturally wants to see if they have fallen into any trap.
When she looked up, she really saw one of them, with a sachet covered in a red mist hanging around his waist.
However, because the man was a little distant, she didn't want to go up and confront him directly. She just took note of the man's appearance and whispered something to Aoki.
Aoki immediately looked at the officer carefully.
"Princess, I will remember him and check him out later."
Lu Zhaoling nodded.
After handing over the task of distributing porridge to the servants, Madam Hua stepped back a little.
She had long been accustomed to the way people looked at her, whether it was surprise, admiration, covetousness, or greed, all of which was normal.
She sensed something and looked forward.
She saw Lu Zhaoling.
The corners of Hua's eyes are slightly upturned, her eyebrows are curved like the moon, her lips are like red cherries, and there is a small dimple on one corner of her lips, but not on the other.
The small dimple on one side makes her look more charming.
When she saw Lu Zhaoling, a smile appeared in her eyes, and then she walked towards Lu Zhaoling.
As a result, Lu Song became a little nervous.
Why does this Madam Hua dare to come forward directly?
Apart from being somewhat amazed at first glance, he couldn't tell what was wrong with Madam Hua.
If the senior sister tested him, he would probably get stuck.
Lu Song quickly looked at Madam Hua carefully again.
His gaze was too focused. Madam Hua looked at him, met his gaze, and couldn't help but smile at him.
This smile, like moonlight emerging from the clouds, makes people feel that the world is brighter.
Lu Song's heart was pounding.
"Master Lu!"
Qingbao called out softly beside him.
Lu Song quickly lowered his head.
It’s no use. He couldn’t tell for the moment whether Madam Hua’s beauty really intimidated him or she used some mysterious magic?
Lu Zhaoling only shifted his gaze to Madam Hua's face when she came in front of him.
She had just finished looking at the officials, then went to look at the common people, and also looked at the servants who were helping to distribute porridge and clothes.
"My name is Peony, nice to meet this young lady and the gentlemen."
Madam Hua bent her knees slightly towards them, bowed gracefully, then stood up straight and looked at Lu Zhaoling with a smile.
Her voice is also very nice, soft and a little refreshing, not the kind of gentle and sweet voice.
Later, when Mr. Qiu saw that Madam Hua actually came directly to Lu Zhaoling and even spoke to her, he couldn't help but feel nervous.
Is there going to be a fight?
