Lady of the Lord From the East

The noble ladies living in the palace soon discovered Queen Mirabelle's favor for Wei Wei.

After the first meeting, although Wei Wei was not invited to live in the palace, she would enter the palace every day, and each time she was entertained by Mila Belle alone. The other ladies didn't even have the chance to meet this mysterious exotic The nobles only know that she spends a long time in the queen's bedroom every day.

If they didn't know that the king had made other arrangements and had not been to the queen's bedroom during this time, they would all doubt whether the other party was pushed out by the queen herself to be the king's mistress, after all, such a thing is not new.

Of course, this is just the imagination of the ladies when they are idle and bored. How could the queen's character do things that would make her unhappy.

She would treat Wei Wei so enthusiastically, but she just regarded the latter as her stylist.

Originally, Wei Wei felt that after she demonstrated the use of cosmetics for Queen Mirabelle, she should have nothing to do with herself. I didn't expect that the maids were not strong enough to master new makeup skills immediately. Yes, I just want Wei Wei to help her transform.

The female family members of European royal families have always asked noble ladies to serve them. They don’t think there is anything wrong with this, but they are regarded as honors. Although Wei Wei disagrees in her heart, she must be as happy as receiving a reward. take over this task.

Queen Mirabelle is worthy of being a princess and then a queen. She not only likes luxury, but is also very picky, and because her aesthetics are different from those of modern Europeans, she pursues the whiter the skin tone, the better, and the thicker the makeup, the better.

There is no way to do this. There is no electricity in this era, and the lighting equipment is still on torches and candles. The nobles usually attend banquets at night, and they hold banquets in a room full of candles. Can't see it at all.

So for Wei Wei's makeup service, even though it looks very good during the day, she still asks for it to be whiter and thicker.

"Make sure to put me in the center of everyone's attention!"

Think of other people as if they put flour all over their faces, with a base makeup similar to that of a Japanese geisha, blushes like two big monkey butts on their cheeks, and big red lips that seem to have sucked blood and haven't wiped their mouths.

Wei Wei silently extended the originally planned little smoky dinner party makeup to be whiter and more exaggerated, and the final effect could almost catch up with the stage makeup.

Anyway, the parties themselves like it.

On the day of the birthday banquet, Wei Wei was still invited into the palace in advance to prepare for the queen, but this time she could bring the Felix brothers and sisters.

The queen's meaning was very clear. Before the banquet began, she had to make all preparations for the queen before she could go to meet Felix.

Of course, she invited them into the palace. The earl, who was a man, was not allowed to enter the queen's bedroom. He was entertained by servants to play in the palace. When he was tired, there was a special lounge to rest. Wei Wei and Dolores were It was brought to Mirabelle.

When seeing them, Wei Wei did not miss the satisfaction in Mirabelle's eyes.

She was amused, knowing that the bad-tempered queen was not at ease with what she said before. In addition to asking her to come to help today, I am afraid she also made sure that she was really as she said before and did not dress like herself.

Of course, Wei Wei didn't lie about this. As a foreigner, she was very prominent in Prady. She appeared in the upper class of the capital for the first time, so she naturally kept a low profile.

And because she really can't agree with the mainstream aesthetics of this period, although she put on makeup before going out, to others, she is almost the same as plain makeup, not white enough or gorgeous enough, at first glance, she has not grown up little girl.

At least that's what the Queen thought.

Let's see, originally this exotic girl's face is not deep enough, she likes light makeup, the foundation is very thin and similar to her original skin tone, the eyebrows are only lightly painted after trimming, the eye shadow and blush are light pink, and the lips are light pink. Although it is full of red, but only a thin layer is applied, it is not full enough, and when paired with the ordinary white dress, she is completely a little girl who is not deep in the world.

Cute and sexy, she can't compare with herself at all.

After the queen came to this conclusion, she asked Wei Wei to serve herself with a smile.

Busy until an hour before the banquet, Wei Wei left the Queen's bedroom and took Dolores to find Felix.

Felix's location is easy to find. He used to be the king's knight, and he used to go in and out of the palace often. He was not interested in the scenery here, so after a perfunctory stroll around, he waited in the arranged lounge. They are. So as soon as Wei Wei left the queen's bedroom, a servant took them directly to join him.

What surprised Wei Wei was that Felix was not alone in the lounge, there were two other people besides him in the lounge.

Those were two boys, both with red hair and green eyes. They had similar facial features and looked like brothers. The older one should be at the age of drawing a bar. The one who was about the same age as Dolores, half a head taller than the little girl, still had some flesh hanging from her body, and there was a little baby fat on her cheeks.

Looking at their dress and Felix's respectful attitude, Wei Wei quickly guessed that these two should be the only two sons of King Prady, sixteen-year-old Crown Prince Edward Prady and twelve The second prince, Andrew Prady.

This is also true. Under the introduction of Felix, Weiwei Dolores and others saluted.

When the crown prince saw them coming, he got up and said, "See you tonight, Mr. Felix."

Prince Andrew saw it and got up to follow his brother.

The two princes left, and the servants of the royal family also withdrew. Only her own people were left in the lounge. Wei Wei asked Felix curiously, "How does Prince Edward call you teacher?"

"I have served as the swordsmanship teacher of two His Royal Highnesses before." Felix explained: "But I have taught them for less than a year, and calling me a teacher is just politeness from His Royal Highnesses."

Felix didn't take very seriously what he had taught the two princes, and he wasn't chosen entirely because his swordsmanship was the best among the knights - of course that was the main reason - but also because of him Somewhat of royal blood, compared to other knights of lower birth, this kinship is a plus.

However, because he was a relative, he was actually a generation lower than the two princes. If he was serious, he would even call them cousin.

However, most of the nobles can draw a blood relationship diagram, so they are not very serious about the generation. Felix's previous status was not high enough to be called the crown prince. Now his status is high enough, but obviously he also No one would ask him to call him that, otherwise he would have to call him Uncle King - of course, there is no such call here, whether it's grandpa or grandma's brother, they all call granduncle.

Wei Wei whispered in Felix's ear: "The two of them don't look very good."

Chinese medicine practitioners pay attention to seeing, hearing, and asking. Although they don't have a pulse, the two His Royal Highnesses are not very good either in face or lip color. At first glance, they are frail and sickly types, and the Crown Prince looks worse than His Royal Highness Andrew.

When Felix heard the words, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, and he replied in the same low voice: "The Queen's health has not been very good, and it took several years after marrying Her Majesty to have Crown Prince Edward, and then to give birth to Her Royal Highness Andrew. At that time, it was even more difficult to give birth, and after several years of training in bed, I did not recover."

In this era, it is obvious that a lot of thought and care can only be done for a child whose constitution is not good at birth to grow up safely.

Just like Caroline.

Everyone knows that the physical condition of the two princes is average, but they think that since the crown prince can grow to such a size, there should be no problem in reaching adulthood safely.

The existence of the two princes is the guarantee of the throne. Not only the king, but also the queen, who is a stepmother, is very concerned about their health problems, because she has never been pregnant since she got married, and she has already decided that she is infertile. The European inheritance law stipulates that only the legitimate son and the eldest son can inherit the throne. If something happens to the two princes, in order to ensure that it is his own child who will sit on the throne, the king promises to divorce Queen Mirabelle as soon as possible.

Therefore, for her own status, Queen Mirabelle has always shown great maternal love in front of the two princes, but unfortunately she is not much younger than her. The second prince, who was his elder brother, was naturally the same as him and hated Queen Mirabelle.

Felix still had a good impression of the prince he had taught. After telling about their situation, he asked Wei Wei in a low voice, "Is that queen really unable to give birth?"

He knows that Wei Wei's medical skills are very powerful, especially pulse detection. Other medical skills can only infer whether a patient has a fever through pulse detection, but she has already seen various symptoms from it. As for the principle, I heard Wei Wei say it once. Felix, who understands, said that he should not delve into it.

"Probably not." Wei Wei replied, "But if a doctor with good medical skills treats her, she can still recover."

She has been circling Queen Mirabelle these days. Out of curiosity, she secretly checked her pulse. She knew that there was indeed a problem with her body, and from the pulse, she might be in her own condition at the beginning. It's not serious, but the poisonous cosmetics and bad living habits have obviously caused great harm to her. Wei Wei dares to conclude that unless the queen can go to Huaxia to find a doctor, or there is a doctor with extremely high medical skills there Come here, otherwise no one in Europe will be able to cure the queen's infertility.

Even now she can't do it. The lack of medicine is the biggest problem. Unless she is given a few years to fully understand Western herbal medicine and find a substitute, she will be helpless.

Hearing that the queen was really unable to give birth, Felix's expression became relaxed, so that she was not afraid that she would do something to the two princes.

They sat in the lounge for nearly half an hour, and the servant outside the door knocked on the door to inform them that the banquet was about to start.

The queen's birthday banquet starts at dinner time, and the admission of guests is very particular. According to different identities, nobles with lower status enter first than those with higher status, and members of the royal family are the finale.

Of course, this is not the case for all members of the royal family. Today is the Queen's birthday. In order to show the importance he attaches to the Queen, he specially arranged for the two princes to entertain guests at the entrance of the banquet hall, which was never seen before.

Although Felix is ​​an earl, as a frontier earl, even if he has a good momentum recently, for the nobles of the royal capital, he is still in a lower position compared with the nobles of the same level. , so their entry time was arranged very early, and before them, apart from some barons with good status and family status, there were only a few counts with weak families.

The etiquette officer shouted the introduction, Wei Wei was led into the banquet hall by Felix, and Dolores followed them nervously. After greeting the two princes, she walked to the arranged position and waited for the others. Guests enter.

After that, Wei Wei could always feel the undisguised scrutiny from other people. She smiled politely as if she didn't notice it, but her mind had already drifted to nowhere.

The guests needed to welcome the king and queen to enter, so after they entered the banquet hall, they were arranged to stand on both sides of the gate. When they passed by, they would directly look at her sideways.

Although Queen Mirabelle felt that Wei Wei's appearance was inferior to her own, it was only because she was beautiful enough, and in fact there was a certain difference in the aesthetics of women and men. Wei Wei's appearance was not easy to arouse the jealousy of the same sex. , it is easy to gain the favorability of the opposite sex, and seeing this exotic oriental appearance for the first time is very novel and amazing to everyone.

And her behavior is also very standard, even the most demanding etiquette teacher can't make mistakes. Everyone originally had doubts about her noble status, but now they believe it.

However, their curiosity about Wei Wei did not last long, because the king and queen entered.

As we all know, King Prady loves beauty, and especially loves those beauties with gorgeous looks and proud body. His private mistresses are all of this style, and the two queens before and after, Mirabelle is more than the one that does not meet his aesthetic. The former queen is to be favored.

Of course, that was also in the past few years. In the past two years, everyone knew that their king became more and more indifferent to the queen, and even openly let his beloved mistress live in the palace, and even took her to several more private banquets. Queen Mirabelle's face was really black.

But this queen is not easy to mess with. Not only does she have her own country as a backer, but she also has poisonous hands. It didn't take long for the mistress who lived in the palace to be abandoned by the king because of an accident.

Although the king did not announce the facts, but after that, he treated his wife more and more coldly, so that anyone with a discerning eye would know who did it.

There are even private bets on when they will get divorced.

But today is different. It is said that the first couple of Prady, whose relationship had dropped to freezing point a long time ago, came out hand in hand. The queen looked at the king with a sweet and seductive look, and the latter looked at her with fiery eyes. Full of desire and desire, it seems that I can't wait to bring people back to my bedroom now.

Regardless of the fact that no one cares about his satyr-like gaze now, everyone's attention is on Queen Mirabelle. Among them, men look at her appearance and figure, and women look at her makeup and clothes.

The red and gold dress was changed to fit Mila Belle's body very well. The wide skirt further set off the slender line of the waist. Although the bulging part of the chest was not exposed at all, it was towering The degree can easily make people think of the plumpness underneath. When she walked in with a fan in her hand, many of the male guests who looked at the lines of her body could not help but secretly swallowed their saliva.

And her makeup is even more beautiful. The black eyebrows are different from the light and almost invisible eyebrows that are popular nowadays, but they are indeed more suitable for her face shape, especially with the thick smoky eye makeup to make her eyes more attractive Deep and bright, the eyes are full of charm, the bridge of the nose looks taller than usual, and the five senses are more profound, and the red lips are full like ripe cherries, making people want to taste it.

When I walked in, I found that her eyelashes were also longer and denser than usual, curled up, and her fingernails holding the fan were also dyed red with golden glitter on them.

And when she passed by, there was only a fragrant wind left. It was not the fragrance of essential oils that everyone loved recently, but a stronger and more seductive smell.

What a stunner, no wonder their king behaves like this now.

Seeing that the king rarely opened a chair for the queen to invite her to take a seat, everyone was not surprised. If they were replaced, they would probably be very happy to serve such a beautiful woman.

Your Majesty is truly blessed.

Compared with the amazement and sighs of the men, the ladies only wanted to know who the queen was wearing.

The well-informed nobles naturally know what the queen's original birthday dress looks like. In fact, when she orders it, the tailor will deliberately reveal something to the outside world. This kind of thing is not new, just to avoid people at the banquet. The queen hits the shirt.

And now the skirt the queen is wearing is obviously not the gem skirt she prepared before, but it is just a simple stitching and a little small design, but it is **** good-looking, all the ladies want to know how that wide skirt is. If they want that effect, they must wear a lot of inner skirts under the skirt, but the queen obviously didn't do that. Her wide skirt doesn't even affect her sitting posture. It was like a blooming flower, not deformed at all.

And when the fan in her hand half-covered her face, only showing a pair of eyes to thank the king, the king's breathing became obviously rapid.

More and more women want to know the secret of the Queen's image change!

And the answer to this secret is actually very easy to guess.

I have been in contact with the queen recently, and I still don't allow other people to watch in private. Isn't there one.

And I heard before that the gift from that person was a lot of cosmetics.

The news spread among the ladies, and soon, the attention that was originally attracted by the queen returned to Wei Wei.

Wei Wei was naturally seated with Felix. Because of her young age, Dolores was placed with the children of the same age and was not with the adults. The little master who was in charge of entertaining them was Prince Andrew. When she left She also looked at her brother and sister-in-law pitifully, hoping they could keep her.

But in the end, the ruthless adult just gave her a soothing smile.

Although the entry time was earlier, Felix and Wei Wei's table unexpectedly moved forward, and they could clearly see the king and queen's every move, and the people sitting beside and opposite were all respected members of the royal family. This was obviously ordered by the king in advance, and this position showed the royal family's attitude towards him.

He was telling everyone that he recognized Felix's bloodline belonging to the royal family, showing that he was close, and at the same time he was attracting him.

The dining table is a long table made up of several tables. Not long after Wei Wei was seated, she found that the eyes of the people around her suddenly came to her again.

This time, most of the people who came over were women, and their eyes were sharp and eager, and they were blatantly undisguised. Even Wei Wei, who admitted that she had seen many big scenes, couldn't help but feel guilty.

The man sitting next to Wei Wei was supposed to be a male nobleman, but he was chased away by his wife mercilessly. After the other party introduced himself, he directly began to ask her if the queen's dress today was helped by her.

This Countess of Nelson is also one of the noble ladies who live in the palace and dress as queens. Her husband is of royal blood, and she is also born from a great aristocrat. Generally speaking, her attitude towards Wei Wei is aristocratic arrogance. But it doesn't give people the feeling of being too arrogant, so Wei Wei doesn't hate her very much. After hearing her question, she nodded generously and accepted it.

As a result, the person who asked was a little unconvinced, and looked at her with a little doubt: "Then why don't you dress like this?"

Wei Wei smiled without saying a word, just tilted her head and glanced at the queen in the main seat, then retracted her gaze.

This hint is, so to speak, very obvious.

Countess Nelson really followed her actions and guessed: "Her Royal Highness does not allow you to do that, right?"

Before she could answer, the lady in her early thirties, who was pretty good-looking, but with too much powder coating, made people wonder if it would fall off. She rolled her eyes very unlady, and obviously had a great opinion of the queen.

"She has always been like that. Anyone who grabs the limelight with her will be ridiculed by her. She is stingy and can't be more stingy."

Then she looked at Wei Wei carefully again, and found that although her makeup was so light that it could hardly be seen under the candlelight, she could still see a shadow similar to the queen in the details.

For example, eyebrows and eye makeup, the popular eyebrows among Prady nobles are similar to the thin willow-leaf eyebrows in ancient China, and they will not paint their eyebrows black and thick, but will deliberately make their eyebrows look light and light. , it is almost invisible from a distance, which is completely different from the bold and deepened modern eyebrows drawn by Wei Wei after trimming the queen.

The Europeans' understanding of eye makeup in this era is still the Egyptian exaggerated eye makeup that can prevent eye diseases and prevent sun damage to the eyes. European aristocratic ladies and young ladies do not like such exaggerated eye makeup. , they are taking the completely opposite road - without eye makeup, the makeup of the entire face is only foundation, blush and lips, and nothing else.

And although Wei Wei's makeup was covered by candlelight, her eyebrows were not covered, and she could see some pale pink marks on her eyelids when she got closer, which was obviously similar to the queen's eye makeup.
