The little black man in front of them touched everyone's heartstrings, including Ji Nianqin.
"Oh no, the prince consort is missing."
"Hurry and find it!!"
When Cao Hanhui heard that her brother Cao Haoyu was missing, she and the princess searched the entire palace but couldn't find him. Then they went outside the palace.
"What's going on? What sin have I committed? Why have so many things happened recently?"
"Queen, is your face feeling better?"
Ji Nianqin was applying aloe vera gel to the queen. She really wanted to apply some to the prince as well, but she didn't know where to apply it. 90% of the extensive burns were like someone being accidentally pushed into a modern crematorium and they had to rush to get them out.
"My son won't continue like this?"
"Reporting to the Queen, I can't make a decision yet. I'm just observing slowly."
"Observe slowly? He's become a charcoal figure."
"Yeah, sprinkle some cumin and chili powder..."
The queen glared at Ji Nianqin.
"I see. I shouldn't have said that just now, but no imperial physician dares to treat your face. Your Majesty, you're not going to commit suicide because of disfigurement like in the TV series, are you?"
"Of course not."
The Queen had no idea what the TV series Ji Nianqin was talking about, but when she looked in the mirror and saw her face swollen like a pig's head, she kept banging her head against the wall.
"Your Majesty, please do not hurt yourself again. It really hurts me to see you doing this."
The Queen's personal maid used her body to block the Queen's head, which resulted in a herniated disc and she has since gone to recuperate.
Only Ji Nianqin and the Queen were left in the room.
"Queen, if I wanted to hurt you, I would have a knife to your neck right now, but I don't. I want to help you."
"You help me?"
"Yes, according to historical records. Oh well, never mind, I've never been good at history. Just listen to the recording yourself."
Ji Nianqin dialed a number on the cell phone she was carrying.
"What's this?"
"This is a cell phone, but there's no signal here, so I can't make a call. I want to tell the Queen about what later generations have said about our Yuan Dynasty. Many emperors were obsessed with beauty, and some even died from excessive sexual activity within a month of their reign. Anyway, if the harem can't manage state affairs, why not improve our makeup? We can be less overtly charming and more ladylike, so that men will respect us."
"respect?"
"Yes! Women are very respected in modern times. Although some of them are dressed very revealingly, most of them are strong women like me in the beauty and hairdressing industry. They can speak with their talents, so no one will look down on them."
"Women's opinions are unacceptable. We women exist to please men. If our makeup is not what men like, how can we survive?"
"We don't necessarily have to have men like it. We just need to like it ourselves. There's a popular saying nowadays: 'Women dress to please themselves.' It means that as long as the makeup we wear is what we like, we don't have to worry about what men think. The most respectable thing is the independence of personality, not being dependent on anyone."
"During the early Ming Dynasty, Zheng He was commissioned to undertake seven voyages to the Western Ocean, making enormous political, economic, and cultural contributions and maintaining friendly relations among Asian nations. Therefore, men can stand tall and proud without the help of women..."
