Chapter 69 Drunken Fragrance

She closed her eyes, and there was thick loneliness in the corners of her eyes. He liked to stay in Yun Yuexuan more and more. She finally won his favor, which was unexpected and unexpected.

Lan'er gently pounded her back and saw that she was listless: "Madam, are you a little bored? How about I accompany you to Cuijing Garden!"

She exhaled: "Lan'er, dress up and go to Yun Yuexuan!"

"Madam, why did you go to Yun Yuexuan, princess--

Man Yao smiled and said, "There are some things that need to be learned from the princess, otherwise you will live a lifetime in vain."

"Madam, I don't understand such profound words, but my wife wants to go, so I will dress up for my wife and compare the princess!"

She smiled and said, dressed up carefully by Lan'er's skillful hands, stared at the face in the mirror, and suddenly raised her eyes and asked, "Lan'er, where is the rouge gouache sent by the princess when she entered the house?"

Lan'er's hand paused and stammered, "Madam, the last time you said you would give it to me, but I have secretly used some."

Man Yao hummed softly, "I'm just asking!"

Lan'er was happy and smiled and said, "Madam, the last time I secretly used it, I was seen by Lvping. She said that this rouge powder is the best. Only the high-ranking concubine in the palace can use it, and ordinary people can't get it!"

"Oh?! The best? I don't know where the princess came from?

"According to the maidservant, it must have been sent by the prince!"

Manyao Li's dress and smiled gracefully: "Let's go to Yun Yuexuan."

Entering Yun Yuexuan's courtyard, she saw Lin Wan sitting in front of the stone table. She smiled lightly and said hello to her in the waterhouse: "I've seen the princess!"

Yin Piansxuan raised her eyes and raised the corners of her mouth: "It turned out to be Mrs. Zhao!"

Lin Wan led her to sit down: "Why did Mrs. Zhao come to Yun Yuexuan!"

Man Yao smiled and said, "I'm afraid to disturb the princess!"

Yin Pianshen said in a coquettish voice, "Mrs. Zhao does not need to be polite, as long as Mrs. Zhao looks up to it!"

When Man Yao saw her talking without forgetting the work in her hand, she was secretly surprised. She didn't expect that she could embroider flowers: "I don't know what the princess embroidered?"

"It's just a few flowers!" She lowered her eyes and quietly embroidered auspicious clouds.

Although she couldn't see her face clearly from the previous perspective, she slightly straightened up with the wind passing through the water, but attracted all Man Yao's attention: she sat cross-legged on the soft couch, and her gorgeous red clothes wrapped the beautiful outline. She didn't realize that at this moment, the charming lips must have a slightly charming smile, and she couldn't help looking at it again. All the time, the dazzling red dress has drawn her eyes. Today, after a closer look, she found that she was not wearing any jewelry except for a hairpin on her head, which could not be simpler.

Man Yao smiled softly: "I don't know where the rouge gouache the princess sent last time came from. I like it very much. I want to buy some!"

Yin Pianshen put down the work in her hand, stretched out, looked sideways at her, raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Mrs. Zhao, why do you need to be so polite? I happen to have two sets, Lanxin, go and get them!"

Seeing Lan Xin enter the room, Man Yao was surprised. Soon, Lan Xin came out with two exquisite wooden boxes and put them on the stone table.

Lin Wan picked up a wooden box with a smile and stroked the cloud stripes on the wooden box. Seeing the two small words 'Drunken Fragrance' engraved in the lower right corner of the wooden box, she opened her lips and asked, "Princess, is this rouge gouache of Zuixiang Building?"

Yin Pianxuan nodded, with a tricky smile in her eyes, sat close to Man Yao and watched her open the wooden box with interest: "How about that? Does Mrs. Zhao want it? The rouge gouache of Drunken Xianglou is the best in the palace!"

"Drunken Xianglou?!"

"If Mrs. Zhao wants, I can sell my personal favor to Mrs. Zhao. How about 50 taels?"

Lin Wan really choked, and Man Yao was stunned to see her solemnly stretching out her slender five fingers.

Yin Pianxuan raised her eyebrows and swam said, "Mrs. Zhao, the best rouge gouache of Zuixianglou has only been supplied to the high-ranking concubines in the palace. How many large families' wives and daughter can't buy it for hundreds of taels!"

She swallowed and pulled the corners of her mouth: "I don't know where the princess came from?"

"There is a place, Mrs. Zhao, don't worry!"

Man Yao took a deep breath and wanted to set her up, but she took out two boxes and sold them to her at a sky-high price. She laughed awkwardly: "Princess, I didn't know this rouge gouache was so expensive. I can't afford it!"

She obviously felt that her voice was lowered.

Aware of her embarrassment, Lin Wanyuan made a scene: "Mrs. Zhao is naturally beautiful and shines on weekdays. She should use less rouge gouache!"

Yin Piansxuan shrugged his shoulders indifferently and asked Lan Xin to put away the rouge powder: "The box given to Mrs. Zhao last time is enough for the first half of the year. It's not too late for Mrs. Zhao to put it again!"

"Are these two boxes of the princess reserved for yourself?"

Yin Pianxuan shook his head: "It's for the big boss and the second master of Yanyufang!"

Man Yao said a few words and withdrew from Yun Yuexuan.

Lin Wan shook her head slightly and asked tentatively, "Does this rouge gouache need hundreds of taels?"

"No, no, it depends on who the buyer is?"

She smiled stiffly and said nothing more.

————————————————————————

Lan Er kept blinking her eyes and finally couldn't help sighing: "I didn't expect it to be so valuable as Lvping said. I thought she was just saying it casually!"

Man Yao's heart thumped, and she had some doubts in her heart. She secretly thought: Lvping is just a maid. How did she know that rouge gouache is the best in the palace?

"Lan'er, let Wanxi prepare a car and go to the drunken incense building!"

Lan'er was shocked: "Madam, why did you go to Zuixianglou?"

"I just want to verify it." Fifty taels?! She would like to see if it was true as Yin Piaoxuan said.

With some effort, she found the highest-grade Zuixiang Building in Kyoto. The Zuixiang Building is located at the end of Zhuque Street and has smelled a faint fragrance before entering the building. Man Yao went in leisurely, looked at him for a while, and suddenly asked faintly, "I don't know if there is any superior rouge powder?"

The shopkeeper is a man of about 50, with a slightly fat figure and excellent maintenance. His shrewd eyes looked up and down at Manyao in Huayi: "What kind of rouge gouache do you want, madam?"

Manyao raised her eyebrows and slowly spit out four words: "The palace is the best!"

He was in a dilemma: "Madam, the best rouge gouache in the palace of Zuixianglou will not be sold out. Madam, you might as well choose some other top-quality rouge gouache."

Man Yao smiled faintly: "Does the shopkeeper think I can't afford it?"

The shopkeeper took a deep breath and smiled and said, "Since my wife opened her mouth, I don't hide it. I occasionally sell some of the best rouge powder in the palace, but the price is not high. If the lady really wants it, I will not be embarrassed, a hundred taels!"

She hummed softly: "The shopkeeper really knows how to act on people's faces. How come my sister got a thousand preferential treatment from the shopkeeper here, and I was treated so coldly."

The shopkeeper looked at her doubtfully: "Madam--"

"My sister must also know the shopkeeper, and she has always been dressed in red!"

"It turned out to be her!" The shopkeeper nodded slightly and pondered: "Madam's sister has never bought a top product here!"

"Oh!?" Man Yao was puzzled: "I don't know what kind of rouge gouache she wants?"

The shopkeeper paused for a moment and ordered the clerk to get a dark red wooden box: "What she wants is all water fragrance!" The so-called Shuiluoxiang is made by adding black intoxicating flower juice in the production process of rouge gouache, which is light and elegant. But few people buy Shuiluoxiang. In recent years, only two people have bought Shuiluoxiang here. One is a woman in red and the other is her sister!"

Man Yao took a breath and knew that what he said must be Yin Hanxuan and Yin Lianxuan. She secretly wondered: "The shopkeeper said that the fragrance of Shuiluo is light and elegant, and I think many women like it. Why do few people buy it?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Because Shuiluoxiang is not used by everyone. After some people use it, it is red, swollen and itchy, and some people's skin is ulcerated and miserable. Ordinary people will not try it easily. Xiao Yiyan, a famous dancer in Kyoto, used Shuiluoxiang.

She restrained Liu Yue's eyebrows slightly and smiled coldly.

"Madam, why did you buy Shuiluoxiang? Didn't the shopkeeper say that Shuiluoxiang is not used by everyone? Lan'er looked back at the drunken building and asked doubtfully.

Shuiluoxiang, a good demonic name, raised the corners of her lips slightly and smiled and said, "The rouge powder that can win the favor of Yin Hanxuan sisters has its own special features. The two sisters will like Shuiluoxiang, which is not unreasonable!"

"But in case..."

"I didn't expect that since Yin Pianxuan's mother also loves Shuiluoxiang, she deserves to be a bloodline. I would like to appreciate the enthusiasm and enchanting of Shui Luoxiang!"
