Ling Shumo came over at this time.
There is still snow falling from the sky now. Although it is not heavy, even the strongest person cannot stand standing in the cold wind for a long time.
Ling Shumo's eyes fell on Chu Changying's face. "Your face is already a little icy from the cold. Even though no matter how much you take care of yourself, you can't change your original facial features, but you can't just give up on yourself and stand in the snow, letting the cold wind ruin your exposed face."
Chu Changying rubbed his frozen face. He briefly forgot about the rice seeds and turned to ask Lu Ye, "Did you bring a mirror?"
Lu Ye took out a bronze mirror from her sleeve. Chu Changying snatched it away and then stared at herself in the mirror carefully.
Ling Shumo said, "Although you are not good-looking, I will not despise you. Inner beauty is also a kind of beauty. Although you don't have beautiful features, you have an interesting soul. You are the most special man I have ever met. Others may judge you by your appearance, but I understand you."
Ling Shumo said this and sighed, "I am such a good person. Think about it, besides me, what other woman can bear to see her husband like you?
So you are really lucky. When God closes a door for you, he will definitely open a window for you. All the good luck in your life has been used to meet Gu, so you are a little lacking in appearance.
After all, one can't have it all, there has to be some sacrifice. Don't you agree?"
Ling Shumo's words awakened Chu Changying's memories that had been buried for many years.
At that time, he was only six or seven years old and had not yet dressed as a woman. His father took him and his sister to visit relatives and friends. At that time, his father's friends praised his sister Chu Changjiu's beauty, saying that it was difficult to tell whether she was male or female. Who knew how many young men she would charm when she grew up?
Then the friend saw the man standing next to my sister. He stared at him for a long time, and finally, he praised him dryly, "Your son has a chubby face, but he is really cute."
A true child would not be able to understand the deep meaning of his friend's words, but he understood it very clearly.
If it's a handsome guy, you can just compliment him directly. If it's the kind of guy who looks a bit unappealing but you have to compliment him out of politeness, then you can use panaceas like "cute" or "elegant".
Chu Changying had completely forgotten the purpose of his visit to Ling Shumo. He began to call the system, "By the way, is there anything in the system mall that can improve my appearance?"
The system suddenly became alert. It originally wanted to remind Chu Changying that Ling Shumo was obviously trying to pua him, but if Chu Changying came to his senses, he would not buy things in the system mall.
Chu Changying doesn't need to use gold coins unless he buys things in the system mall.
Chu Changying has no interest in the things in the system mall, so he will not actively complete the task of pleasing Ling Shumo and gaining favorability points.
If Chu Changying gave up, its bonus would be gone, so it decided to help Ling Shumo with her PUA (Puya) host. "Host, your current appearance value is only 60%, while Xue Wu's is 99%. One point of Ling Shumo's favorability can be exchanged for one gold coin, and one gold coin can be used to purchase a beauty pill. Each pill improves your appearance by one thousandth. As long as you persevere in exchanging your favorability points for beauty pills, you will soon surpass Xue Wu, the most beautiful woman in Zhongdu."
Chu Changying was shocked, "My appearance value is only 60%?"
The system concealed the appearance value of ordinary people, which fluctuated between 50% and 60%. This was an established fact. It said with great sorrow, "Yes, host, your appearance value is only 60%.
This is really sad to hear and makes people cry.
You are so pitiful. You have been inferior since birth and lost at the starting line.
If you hadn't bound me, you would have been so ugly for the rest of your life.
However, you don't have to despair. As Ling Shumo just said, 'When God closes a door for you, he will inevitably open another window for you.' As long as you work hard to complete the task, you will definitely be able to change your fate.
Chu Changying clenched his fists involuntarily, and the confusion in his eyes gradually turned into determination.
Ling Shumo stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes.
Did she just say too much?
The kid was completely fooled.
Chu Changying finally came back to his senses and finally remembered his rice seeds. "Your Highness, I have something to give you. Do you have time to go to Hibiscus Palace?"
Ling Shumo was about to agree.
But a servant stumbled over and ran over, "Your Highness, Your Highness...something's wrong..."
The attendant ran too fast and gasped for breath. Shi Qi didn't wait for him to finish the rest of the sentence and kicked him to the ground. "What are you talking about? What do you mean, Your Highness is in trouble? Your Highness is standing here peacefully, and you are saying such unlucky words."
Shi Qi shouted, "Come here, drag this servant out and give him thirty lashes of the cane. After that, throw him out of the East Palace."
The servant was quickly dragged away, but the things he was supposed to report were not delayed. Before the execution, the old servant who went to beat him with the stick had already made things clear to him.
The old servant knelt in the snow and reported, "There's been a conflict between the Crown Princess's Concubine (Shangguan Xu) and the Crown Princess's Master (Qin Wen'er). The two masters are now tussling. The servants stepped in to stop them, but before they could separate, the Concubine had already knocked out three of the Crown Princess's teeth."
Ling Shumo asked, "Is Shangguan Xu not injured?"
The old servant was just repeating the attendant's words. He was not watching the scene, so he could not answer Ling Shumo's question.
Ling Shumo no longer cared about Chu Changying. She hurried to find Shangguan Xu. After taking two steps, she suddenly remembered that she didn't know where the two people were.
The old servant said hurriedly, "It was the prince who went to Jinxiu Palace first."
Jinxiu Palace is Qin Wen'er's residence, which means that it was Shangguan Xu who provoked Qin Wen'er first.
…
Jinxiu Palace is the residence of successive princesses. It is decorated in a luxurious and elegant style. The floor is paved with fine green tiles. The land on both sides of the green tiles is used to grow flowers and is covered with fertile black soil transported from Heishui City, the northernmost city of the empire.
