Chapter 718

While master and apprentice Merton were constantly studying the method of making mirrors, a beautiful fairy tale spread all over Chang'an city.

"Snow White!"

As soon as snow white came out, she immediately captured the hearts of the children in Chang'an city.

Beautiful princess, magic mirror! Good hunter, seven dwarfs

Interesting characters make countless children enjoy talking about it and listen to the story again and again. Many little girls secretly hold adults' bronze mirrors and ask loudly who is the most beautiful woman in the world!

At the same time, the source of this fairy tale was also picked out, and the news that Merton would use the magic mirror as the bride price came one after another.

Children's attention is just a fairy tale, while adults pay more attention to the marriage between Merton and Princess Changle. Once Merton and Princess Changle get married, it will be a major event that will stir Chang'an city.

One is the most famous talent in Chang'an City, the son of the Mohist family who is in charge of the Mohist school, and the other is the first daughter of the Tang Dynasty's first princess, Li Shimin and the empress changsun. Their marriage will certainly stir Chang'an city.

However, the key to Merton's marriage is the magic mirror in the fairy tale. The Mexican family promised to take the magic mirror to the palace to propose marriage in five days, and today is the fifth day.

"Mother, I want to hear snow white again!" Princess Jinyang said coquettishly with a bronze mirror in her hand in the legislative palace.

Empress Chang sun had no choice but to hold Princess Jinyang and tell it again. He had told the story more than a hundred times in five days, but Princess Jinyang never got tired of hearing it.

"Empress mother, who do you think is the most beautiful woman in the world?" Princess Jinyang asked naively.

"Of course it's our lovely son!" the eldest Sun Queen gently hugged the princess of Jinyang.

The princess of Jinyang looked at her figure in the bronze mirror and said shyly, "she's ugly. Her sister is beautiful."

Empress Chang sun smiled gently and said, "that's because Changle is still young. When she grows up, she will be as beautiful as her sister."

The Jinyang Princess nodded hard. The eldest Sun Queen handed the Jinyang princess to gong'e, turned and asked, "where's Merton?"

"If you go back to the empress, someone from the Mo house has sent a message. I believe it will arrive soon." a gong-e bowed.

"Someone has been sent to send a message. Is it because Merton has made the magic mirror!" a group of concubines exclaimed next to empress Chang sun.

Changle is the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty. Merton came to ask for a marriage. Naturally, all the empresses have come. They naturally know that Merton's bride price is a magic mirror that claims to be able to detect who is the best beauty in the world. How can they sit still? Most of the flowers and flowers come to the government hall one after another.

"What magic mirror is there in this world? It's just a fairy tale for children!" Princess Wei said with a curl of her mouth. As Zheng Chonghua said, Merton did not use gold and silver, but used strange things as the bride price. Coupled with snow white's fairy tale, this bride price added a bit of legend, which made Princess Wei even more unhappy.

Zheng Chonghua covered his mouth and said with a smile, "since the birth of the Mohist school, there have been many strange things for the Tang Dynasty. If there were another magic mirror, there would not be many!"

She guessed Merton's next action directly, which made her face rise in the harem and said proudly.

Among the empresses, there are two factions. Some don't believe that any mirror will be so magical. Many people think that since Merton dares to come, he must be a bit sure. In addition, the repeated miracles before Merton make the concubines look forward to it.

The imperial concubines talked one after another. It was not long before they heard that Gong e hurried into the Lizheng hall and came to report: "tell the queen, madam Qin and Marquis Mo to see you."

"Coming!"

The concubines were stunned and immediately ended their discussion. They looked forward to looking at the door of the legislative hall. Whether the magic mirror was true or false would be known soon.

"I'll see the empress and ladies!"

Soon, Mrs. Qin in full dress appeared in the sight of everyone. When she saw the empress Chang sun, Mrs. Qin said respectfully with a happy face.

She is the matchmaker invited by Merton. It's natural to let her come forward today. After all, in this era, matchmakers are essential. Changle is the long princess. Naturally, she pays more attention to these etiquette.

On the first day of the new year, she just mentioned Merton intentionally. Unexpectedly, Merton was so fast that a good thing was about to happen in less than half a month.

"Madam Qin is exempted." empress Chang sun came forward and said.

Mrs. Qin is not only the wife of Yi Guogong, but also the matchmaker of Changle. No matter what level of relationship, empress Chang sun can't neglect it.

"I came here today, but for the good of Merton and Changle, who would have thought that the children were so big in the twinkling of an eye." Mrs. Qin sighed.

"Yes!" said the eldest grandson.

I'm afraid any mother will be very reluctant to see her daughter get married, but men should marry women. Princess Changle is 16 years old. If she had been married before, she would have been married for two or three years.

"Although your majesty has promised to marry, how can you play a child's game in the event of marriage? I think we should still take the six rites as common, and we can't neglect any more." Mrs. Qin solemnly said.

Empress Chang sun nodded solemnly and said, "it should be so."

After all, Changle is the eldest princess. There must be some etiquette. Mrs. Qin can be so solemn, which is the intention of empress changsun.

So Mrs. Qin and empress Chang sun finished the three items of natch, name asking and Nagi as quickly as possible in public.

"Congratulations, madam. It's a perfect match between them!" Mrs. Qin congratulated.

"Congratulations to the queen!" all the empresses congratulated in unison.

Everyone knows that this is just a formality. Merton and Princess Changle are in a special situation. I'm afraid they are free lovers of the first team of the Tang Dynasty. Even if the eight character conflict can't stop this marriage.

However, the concubines did not pay attention to these. They all knew that the real play was coming, so they accepted the levy.

You should know that the bride price promised by Merton is a thousand times and ten thousand gold. They want to see what kind of mirror can be worth so much wealth.

"Please, Mo Hou!"

With the announcement, Merton, dressed in brocade, took the lead in entering the legislative palace, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. The empresses had to praise Merton for being a rare good son in Chang'an city. Although Princess Changle has a noble status, Merton is absolutely rare to be worthy of his young talents.

"I'll see the empress and ladies!" Murton bowed.

"Excuse me!" the eldest grandson waved.

"Thank you, empress. Thanks for the empress's love, she betrothed Changle to Weichen. Today, Weichen specially prepared a wedding gift and wanted the empress's permission." Merton waved his hand, and suddenly several bodyguards carefully raised some objects covered with red silk, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Is this the magic mirror?" all the girls guessed one after another.

Women love beauty, especially in the harem. Beauty is the best weapon to win favor. Which woman doesn't want to know who is the most beautiful woman in the world?

Imperial concubine Wei couldn't help humming in her heart. She didn't believe that there would be magic mirrors that didn't lie and could talk in the world. Instead, she wanted to see how the Mo family came to round the scene. Mrs. Qin on the side couldn't help looking forward. Merton asked her to be a matchmaker. Naturally, she wanted her to witness the bride price first, but she knew how magical these mirrors were.

Merton looked around for a week and suddenly saw Zheng Chonghua among the empresses. He was stunned. He immediately covered up the past and said, "there are three mirrors for the wedding gift of Weichen today, and the queen is poor and cheap. The first is a makeup mirror, which can be stored in a box for easy carrying to check her face."

"Makeup mirror!" the imperial concubines were moved. Among the imperial concubines in the harem, there was no one who didn't wear powder. I'm afraid dressing up was a necessary skill for every woman. On the one hand, it didn't lose etiquette, on the other hand, it was to compete for favor. The usual makeup was naturally cautious. The imperial concubines usually carried a small bronze mirror with them to tidy up their appearance.

Merton raised the first red silk, revealed a palm sized round object, and bowed down to the empress changsun.

Empress Chang sun was stunned when she found that the object in her hand was folded. She couldn't help reaching out and opening it. Suddenly, a light flashed. Empress Chang sun couldn't help but look surprised when she saw her face in the palm sized round mirror in her hand.

"Is this the magic mirror you talked about?"

Empress Chang sun looked stunned and couldn't help looking back and forth at the thin lens and then at herself in the mirror.

When the other empresses saw the empress Chang sun's gaffe, they couldn't help but be curious. However, the makeup mirror was only palm size, and the area they could see was very small. They could only see some light, and they looked down on others. They couldn't help itching.

After a long time, empress Chang sun closed her makeup mirror and exclaimed, "the unique skills of Mohism are really amazing."

When Wei Guifei heard empress Chang sun say this, she was shocked. Empress Chang Sun said this, which was obviously convinced by the makeup mirror in her hand. The empresses couldn't help looking at each other. She was very confused. Is there really a magic mirror in the world?

"Thank you for your praise!"

At this time, Merton naturally would not be modest and went directly to the second red silk.

"This mirror is the dressing mirror prepared by Weichen for Changle!"

Merton said, the red silk fell and revealed a two foot dressing mirror, which was much larger than the dressing mirror. Many empresses were stunned when they saw the scene in the mirror.

"As like as two peas in the mirror," Yang Fei, who was closest to him, could not believe in looking at herself in the mirror. She reached out to touch her face and found that the mirror was exactly the same as her movements.

It was the first time in her life that she saw her appearance so clearly. In this era, there were no photos and other things. People could see the appearance of others, but it was very vague about her appearance. Even if Yang Fei was spoiled by the two dynasties, she might have seen her appearance for the first time.

Other concubines also found themselves in the mirror. One by one, they couldn't help coming up to the dressing mirror and looking at their faces. Even concubine Wei, who was very biased against Merton, was no exception, staring at the dressing mirror in front of them one by one.

Princess Wei noticed her gaffe and couldn't help sitting upright. Her eyes turned and said, "mohou, you promised a magic mirror that can't lie and talk. Although it's wonderful, it's just a cold mirror."

Zheng Chonghua chuckled, grabbed the handle and said: "Sister Wei, as like as two peas," snow white, "it's just a fairy tale told to children. My sister really believed it. Besides, I can't lie before the makeup mirror. It's beautiful and ugly. I can see where I can lie. Is this not the same as the magic mirror in fairy tales? And any woman looking at herself in the mirror is still the most beautiful woman in the world. There's no counting. Anyway, my little sister can't compare with your sisters. "

Zheng Chonghua's means were extremely high, and he held up a group of empresses quietly.

"We are all old, and my sister is in full bloom." Yang Fei sighed. She saw her crow's feet in the mirror just now.

"Elder sister is as old as before, where is old!" Zheng Chonghua praised.

All the concubines use rare things to maintain their appearance. Coupled with their natural beauty, they don't lose much compared with young Zheng Chonghua.

"Flatterer!" Wei Guifei couldn't help humming coldly when she looked at Zheng Chonghua. However, today is a good day for Changle. It's inconvenient for her to turn her face with Zheng Chonghua, but she focused on the last tall object.

"The last one is a dressing mirror." Merton didn't sell off, but directly pulled down the red silk to reveal a dressing mirror that was more than a person, enough to reflect a person's whole body.

"Dressing collocation is very important. With a dressing mirror, you can see your dressing collocation and choose the clothes that are most suitable for you."

Without Merton's explanation, there was only pure light in the eyes of the empress concubines. They naturally knew the importance of dressing glasses.

Makeup mirror, dressing mirror, dressing mirror and three mirrors can be said that each one firmly adheres to a woman's mind. I'm afraid no woman in the world can refuse such temptation.

Zheng Chonghua, who was on the other side, was secretly jealous of Princess Changle. She married the most powerful in the world and had great power, but she needed to compete with many concubines. However, Princess Changle had Merton's heart alone and enjoyed the only treasure in the world. How could she be happy.

Zheng Chonghua's eyes turned and said, "what Marquis Mo promised was a thousand times for employment and ten thousand gold for gift. This is just three mirrors. Although it is quite wonderful, I'm afraid it's not worth so much!"

Many empresses nodded thoughtfully. The bride price was more than strange. I'm afraid it was of little value. Merton's move was suspected of being tricky. Mrs. Qin couldn't help showing an anxious look and looked at Merton nervously.

Merton showed a trace of confidence, reached out and took out a secret letter from his arms, bowed and said, "the only three mirrors are naturally not my bride price, but the secret recipe of the magic mirror!"

"Secret recipe!"

Everyone was stunned. Everyone knew that once these three mirrors appeared on the market, they would certainly cause countless women to rush to buy them. This would be a lot of wealth. Even if the empresses were in the deep palace for a long time and didn't eat human fireworks, they couldn't help but be shocked. However, Merton didn't hesitate to give them in order to marry Princess Changle.

Even empress Chang sun could not help sighing in her heart that Merton's bride price was more than ten times the promised bride price. Anyone who had this secret recipe was afraid to get rich overnight.

"This dowry is enough!" empress Chang sun was very satisfied with this dowry. On the one hand, she avoided too much gold and silver dowry, which made Princess Changle's reputation bad. Although the value of this ink technique was amazing, it was within her power for Merton, which could not be more appropriate.

"Thank you, empress." Merton suddenly showed a happy look. The eldest grandson queen accepted the bride price, which means she agreed to the marriage.

"Silly boy, don't change your mouth!" Mrs. Qin said.

Merton suddenly realized, "thank you for your success."

"Congratulations to the empress on her son-in-law!" the empresses also congratulated one after another.

The eldest grandson empress looked happy. Her mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law, and the more she looked at Merton, the more pleasing she was to her eyes. She couldn't help being kind.

"Now that the marriage has been completed, how about taking this opportunity to fix the wedding date today?" Mrs. Qin hit the railway while it was hot.

Empress Chang sun nodded and said, "well, it's a month."

Mrs. Qin had been prepared. She took out a yellow calendar and looked through it until February. She read it carefully and said, "February 16 is an auspicious day. It's appropriate to marry, not today."

"Yes!" said the eldest grandson.

So far, the wedding date of Merton and Princess Changle has been set,
