Chapter 233: Rouge Where the Butterfly Stays



Concubine Xi agreed on the surface, but after the Queen Mother left, she snorted coldly towards the door.

The Queen made these suggestions for her own good, so she could maintain her dignity.

As for Shen Yuerong, she actually refuted my words in public. I will never let her go.

The result was obvious. When Concubine Xi said she would not let Shen Yuerong go, she meant that she had to wait at the door when she came to pay a visit.

That's all.

She probably couldn't think of or do anything else.

The sun gradually became brighter, and a thin layer of sweat oozed from the tip of Shen Yuerong's nose.

At this time, Hua Qiu walked out of the palace and began to explain to Shen Yuerong.

"My Lady Princess, I am sorry to trouble you to wait for a long time. The Concubine has woken up and is waiting to be dressed."

Shen Yuerong nodded and smiled at Huaqiu, stuffed her purse with it, and asked, "Aunt, I wonder who my mother has seen today?"

Hearing this, Hua Qiu glanced around and when he saw that there was no one around, he whispered a reminder.

"The Queen came early this morning, and the two of them started talking and drove me out."

Hearing this, Shen Yuerong felt more confident and she did not stand there any longer.

Instead, he ordered people to bring the tables, chairs, benches, and breakfast that he had prepared long ago.

It was placed like this at the entrance of the palace so that the palace maids and eunuchs coming and going could see it.

Shen Yuerong ate her breakfast calmly and calmly, feeding Qinghua from time to time.

This scene reached Concubine Xi's ears. She was wondering how this person could be so calm and even have time to eat breakfast.

On one side, the queen was drinking water from a teacup. As she lowered her eyes to drink tea, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.

This Shen Yuerong is really cunning. She persuaded Concubine Xi not to let her enter the palace, but she ended up eating breakfast at the door.

It only takes a quarter of an hour for people passing by to see it and inform the Empress Dowager or the Emperor, who will then send someone to resolve the matter.

Seeing that Shen Yuerong was about to resolve the difficulty, the Queen rolled her eyes, put down the teacup, and spoke with a gentle and worried look on her face.

"Your son is really worried for your mother. It is said that Shen Yuerong is ugly, silent, and has a bad temper. She will go crazy if you are not careful."

"If she is really that good, why would the people in the general's mansion divorce her? It must be... Oh, I won't say that. It's just that it is rumored that she knows medical skills. The prince must have been bewitched by her, so he must have her."

“If my mother could leave the palace and live in the palace, and always monitor Shen Yuerong’s every move, maybe some things could be prevented from happening.”

The Queen's words made Concubine Xi worried and angry. She felt that Shen Yuerong must have done something to her precious son, so she made up her mind to leave the palace.

She had originally planned to meet Shen Yuerong, but after hearing what the Queen said, she gave the order directly.

"Since she wants to eat outside so badly, let her stay all day."

Afterwards, Shen Yuerong finished her breakfast at the door and brought books, pens, ink, paper and inkstone.

After spending a painting, Concubine Xi still had no intention of approaching, so Shen Yuerong took out the wooden box that had been prepared long ago.

She opened the wooden box with her slender fingers, revealing the tools for making rouge and powder.

Shen Yuerong carefully made rouge. The faint fragrance lingered at the entrance of the palace and even drifted to the nose of Concubine Xi. She couldn't help but have sparkling eyes.

She doesn't like anything else on a daily basis, except rouge and powder, and the more fragrant the better.

Concubine Xi couldn't help but ask Hua Qiu: "What is this smell?"

Hua Qiu replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, this is the scent of the rouge and powder that the princess made at the door."

Hearing this, Concubine Xi couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and look at Hua Qiu.

"She actually knows how to make rouge?"

Hua Qiu stopped talking because Concubine Xi's attention was all focused on the direction of the palace entrance. She wished she could grow wings and fly outside to see what Shen Yuerong was doing.

In fact, Concubine Xi also did this. She secretly came behind Shen Yuerong and saw a hint of red on her white fingertips.

The air is filled with the fragrance of flowers, which is intoxicating.

Shen Yuerong was making rouge seriously. When she noticed a shadow swaying in front of her, she knew it must be Concubine Xi.

So Shen Yuerong smiled and said, "Qinghua, do you know the magical effect of this rouge? It can beautify your skin and attract butterflies."

As soon as these words came out, Concubine Xi subconsciously asked, "Is your rouge really so magical that it can actually attract butterflies?"

Shen Yuerong turned around and saw Concubine Xi standing there curiously, so she raised the rouge in her palm and answered with a smile.

"My Lord, this rouge was made by me. The fragrance will attract butterflies. If you don't believe me, just look at it."

As soon as she finished speaking, a few butterflies fluttered their wings and came over, landing on the rouge.

Concubine Xi was stunned, completely forgetting her previous hostility towards Shen Yuerong, and her eyes were shining brightly instead.

"This thing of yours is amazing. Can you give me one? I can buy it with money."

Shen Yuerong handed the rouge to Concubine Xi, "If mother wants it, just take it. This is the only rouge in the world."

"If you like it, I will make other colors myself later."

Concubine Xi raised her eyebrows and looked at Shen Yuerong's small face, which was as big as a palm. It was bright, delicate and very beautiful.

When she smiled, it seemed as if the world was filled with warmth and gentleness.

When she wasn't smiling, a cold chill surged all over her body.

But no matter what, Shen Yuerong was so beautiful that one couldn't take their eyes off her.

Concubine Xi looked at this pretty little face and felt no jealousy at all, only love.

She just liked these beautiful things, including rouge and pretty girls.

After Concubine Xi took the rouge, she applied it on the back of her hand. Immediately, a butterfly flew over and she looked at Shen Yuerong in surprise.

"Look, there really are butterflies stopping here. It's really magical."

Hua Qiu chuckled softly at the side. Her Majesty the Concubine was just so naive. Before leaving, she said that she would scold Shen Yuerong later and would definitely not treat her well.

As a result, as soon as she reached the door, she had already forgotten about it, and now she still looks like she likes the princess.

"I just researched it when I had nothing to do. The rouge shop at home was all developed by me. In addition, there are also sachets. I will give some to my mother when the time comes."

"As long as mother likes, you can come out of the palace and visit the shop with me."

Perhaps the word "leave the palace" reminded Concubine Xi, and she immediately came to her senses and remembered that she should hate Shen Yuerong.

So she immediately held back her anger, but still held the rouge in her hand and spoke coldly.

"You come to see me, is this the reason? You want to bribe me with a piece of rouge?"

Qinghua next to her was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect her attitude to change so quickly, but Shen Yuerong was still smiling, with a faint and touching smile on her lips.

"Mother is right. I came to see you, so I can't come empty-handed. So I specially prepared some small things for you. I hope you don't mind."

"Blue and white."

Shen Yuerong called out, and Qinghua reacted immediately, and hurriedly ordered people to deliver the things they brought to Concubine Xi.
