Mingxiu and Kangxi did not stay to hear their results. In any case, no matter what the result was, Mingxiu already knew. However, with so many secrets suddenly exposed, she was still a little afraid of being retaliated against.
Emperor Kangxi found Mingxiu's furtive behavior rather amusing.
What happened after that was beyond Mingxiu's control. However, she later heard from Yinreng that the three of them had been angry for a long time and had been quite worn out that night. If Mingxiu hadn't sent someone to deliver dinner, they probably would have stayed up until dark when they left the palace.
Mingxiu imagined what the three of them would look like and found it extremely funny, grinning from ear to ear.
Mingxiu smiled as she looked at the things in her hands. These were all matters that the Empress needed to handle, but since Mingxiu was there, she simply took care of everything so that the Empress could focus on her pregnancy.
"Your Majesty, I heard that a super amazing shop has recently opened in the capital. They sell rouge, face powder, and skincare products. They say that applying them can make your skin whiter and smoother. And it seems that they have many colors of face powder. Many people in the capital love them. Would Your Majesty like to try them?" a maidservant said from the side.
"What do all these different colors of face powder look like? What's the name of this shop?" Mingxiu asked curiously.
"Hmm, I don't know what colors they are, there are too many to remember them all, but I do know the shop name, it seems to be called Vipshop."
Ha~ Vipshop, Mingxiu's lips twitched.
This really is quite a coincidence.
"Since I have nothing to do today, Qingya, go and tell the Emperor Emeritus that we want to go out for a walk and see what Vipshop is like."
"Yes," Qingya quickly went out to find Kangxi.
Mingxiu had someone help her change her clothes and dress up. By the time she was all ready, Qingya had already returned.
Mingxiu then went out with her entourage.
At the entrance of Vipshop, Mingxiu looked at the three familiar words with a sense of helplessness. These transmigrators nowadays are so bold, knowing that there are transmigrators in this world and still daring to do this.
What?! You're asking her how she knows this person knows about time travelers? Please, the world has changed so drastically, and it's so close to the modern era. Anyone who's not an idiot would know about time travelers, okay?
What! You're asking her how she knew this time traveler was a woman? Please, it's a cosmetics shop! If she wasn't a woman, was she a man? Can men distinguish so many colors? Don't they only know about Barbie pink?
Mingxiu was dressed very plainly today, the kind of person whose identity no one could tell. The moment she walked into the shop, Mingxiu was momentarily dazed, as if she had returned to the modern world.
The glass countertop and decorations are just like modern ones, plus the samples and mirrors on top—it looks exactly like the style she'd been browsing in the space before.
Mingxiu walked in without making a sound, looking at the various cosmetics, lipsticks, and perfumes on display. She opened one and took a gentle sniff. Mingxiu squinted her eyes with pleasure. "It smells so good! This person must be a chemistry expert, or at least someone with great taste."
Just then, a woman came out from the inner room and walked up to Mingxiu with a smile, saying, "Madam, how is the food at your restaurant? Please feel free to give us any feedback. We have a suggestion box here."
Mingxiu looked up at the woman, who appeared to be in her early twenties and wasn't particularly beautiful, but she possessed a certain aura. Mingxiu immediately recognized her as a fellow transmigrator, because her aura was very similar to the elite aura she had seen before, the kind that comes from being tempered in the midst of crowds.
Mingxiu raised an eyebrow, no longer looking at her, but walked to the side and looked at the suggestion board she had mentioned. There were already some scattered comments written on it. Mingxiu glanced at it and saw that the comments were either about how hard it was to get the colors or how there were too many people, but nothing else.
Mingxiu nodded, walked over, picked up a pen, and wrote down her comments. Thanks to Kangxi's encouragement over the years, her handwriting, though not very good, was now at a normal level, at least it had moved beyond being ugly.
Lu Shao watched Mingxiu with a smile until she finished writing, then went over to see her comments. This was something she often did, but usually, many of the comments didn't need to be changed.
However, after looking at the contents, Lu Shao's eyes flickered before he looked at Mingxiu again. His already smiling face became more sincere: "Thank you for your valuable suggestions, madam. Our store will definitely take them into consideration."
Mingxiu nodded and then selected a bunch of things in the store. She didn't actually need these things, but she could use them as gifts. Besides, some of the things were so appealing to her that she would like them too.
Mingxiu did a big shopping spree here, and then walked out of the store amidst the smiling faces of the shop assistants.
Inside the carriage, Qingya sat beside Mingxiu and reported, "Your Majesty, we've found out. This woman named Lu Shao is a Han Chinese. She used to live with her father in Shu and was a young lady from a prominent family. However, a few years ago, her family suffered a tragedy. Her father passed away, and her brother also died. Then, her relatives seized the family's property. It's said that Lu Shao was originally a very gentle girl, but perhaps these events caused her personality to change drastically. She used a scheme to take back the property that belonged to her family, sold it, and then came to live in the capital."
Mingxiu nodded and said nothing more, letting the person leave. After the person left, Mingxiu couldn't help but smile. What did it mean to be stimulated and have a drastic change in temperament? To others, it might seem like a drastic change in temperament, but Mingxiu knew very well that it was just a matter of having a different soul inside her body.
Mingxiu came out today to confirm whether this person was a time traveler or not, and now it's confirmed. But there's still a question: are time travelers really this easy these days?
Mingxiu was a little confused and decided to go back and ask the system. Others might not know, but the system certainly would.
Mingxiu lost interest in shopping outside and went straight back to Yonghe Palace. She had the items she bought sorted and then distributed them to everyone.
He then entered the space and summoned the system. Since Yinreng became emperor, the system had become practically useless, so both Kangxi and Mingxiu could summon it. Of course, this was a permission granted by Yinreng, just to make it convenient for Mingxiu to watch TV dramas from time to time.
