Her eyebrows were curved and arched, like a distant mountain. Her adorned eyebrows were like the crescent moon in the sky, making one's heart tremble. A flash of reddish brown color, light blinding to the eyes and face, getting deeper and deeper, from light to dark, brown, brownish blue, blue, ink-blue, black. The eyeliner accentuated her clear eyes even more.

His long eyelashes, due to having been smeared with some kind of paste, were even more slender and curved. His bright eyes were bright and limpid as they flowed in the autumn. A wisp of pink in the corner of her mouth outlined a beautiful curve, just like the cherry tree top seductive, flashing a soft luster.

Eyes containing spring water clear waves flowing look, the face like a congealed natural beauty. The woman in the mirror was like a fairy that had descended into the mortal world, elegant and refined.

"Is this me?"

Her slender jade-like hand rubbed her face. The Begonia was still in a dream as her gaze slightly rotated, leaving behind a glimpse in the mirror. She didn't know how many times she had seen this appearance. She had once been conceited about her own appearance. It was just that spring left and autumn came, yet he had failed to live up to the great scenery, allowing his flower-like appearance and youth to pass away like water in the east.

Since I have occupied the high position within the palace, I will not be able to move despite the winds blowing against me from east to west. After two generations of emperors, their pampered ones had never disappeared. Perhaps only she could do this for the maidens in the Imperial Palace.

And the price for all of this was to fail to live up to one's natural beauty, standing outside of the event and looking at the changes in the harem from the perspective of the onlookers.

"Of course it's elder sister. Elder sister is naturally beautiful, but she doesn't dress up and is already incomparably gorgeous. Today, my little sister dressed up slightly for my sister, further showing off my sister's absolute beauty. "If I were a man, I would definitely marry big sister and go home, haha …"

The Begonia pouted coquettishly and glared at Ji Tian Ning. She looked at herself in the mirror and sighed faintly, "It's a pity that my youth is like the water of the past. I'm no longer in my prime."

She lowered her head. She did not know if her sacrifice was worth it. She had spent her lifetime of loneliness in exchange for the clan's peace and glory. Even though she had a beautiful face, she had never received a favor from a king. She had been in the harem for more than twenty years, but she was still a virgin.

Ji Tian Ning researched for a few days. Finally, she used ancient flowers and ingredients to create eye shadow, mascara, lipstick, and so on. Thanks to the laptop she had brought with her, she had stored a lot of information, from the production of ancient and modern cosmetics to modern technology.

The thing that gave Ji Tian Ning the most headache was that she didn't dare to turn on her laptop for too long. If she ran out of power, there wouldn't be any place to charge it.

"Sister Begonia, how long have you been in the palace?"

"I entered the palace at the age of thirteen. It's been more than twenty years now."

Her beautiful eyebrows slightly knitted. Recalling that she had already spent the best part of her youth in that deceitful imperial harem, she couldn't help but faintly sigh. His fingers, which were like green onions, slowly slid across his face. This face had once tempted the emperor.

"Elder sister's most beautiful youth died here, sigh …"

Ji Tian Ning shook her head. She knew the loneliness and pain that lay behind the beauty of the female officials.

"I'm used to it. His Majesty dotes on my younger sister. It's rare to see a saint like her in the harem."

The Begonia's beautiful eyes examined the girl carefully dressed for her from the mirror. She felt that she was becoming more and more unable to see through Ji Tian Ning. She was very clear about Huo Ni Lin's temper. It was truly strange for him to be so lenient towards a woman and not have made a move against Ji Tian Ning.

"Elder sister has been in the harem for more than twenty years. I'm afraid that she already knows every single rat hole in the harem like the back of her hand. In the future, I will need to give more pointers."

"There is no need for the Empress to be so courteous. The Empress is currently a saint's servant, and the transvestite is merely an official. How could he dare to be rude and serve the Empress?"

Ji Tian Ning stretched out her hand to tickle the Begonia's armpit. "Hehe …" The Begonia laughed lightly until her branches were trembling. "My good little sister, please spare my sister. If I were to be seen by servants, I would lose my little sister's status."

"Sister, if there are outsiders here, no matter how I address them, there are only two of us in this room right now, so there is no need for false etiquette. Besides, I don't like these bloody courtesies at all. "

The Begonia gently stood up and left the mirror, even though those cosmetics could cover up the traces of time, even though she looked like she was keeping them in her thirties. However, he was able to deceive others and he was unable to deceive himself. In an instant, the Begonia suddenly felt both physically and mentally exhausted.

"Elder sister, the most powerful people in the palace are the empress dowager and empress, right? "What kind of people are they?"

Qiuxiu was silent for a moment, before her clear and deep eyes swept across Ji Tian Ning's face. After getting along with her for a while, she knew that Ji Tian Ning was not one of those scheming people from the harem. She naturally had an inexplicable good impression of this lily-like girl.

She couldn't see the gloominess in those clear eyes, only pure and happy. Ji Tian Ning had never been able to command even the lowliest slave servant in the imperial harem. Instead, she was humble and amiable.

It was the young eunuch that had just been sent over. The Begonia had personally seen Ji Tian Ning personally change the medicine and treat his illness. He was meticulous and considerate as he addressed Ji Tian Ning as his younger brother. Even though she had warned Ji Tian Ning, the little eunuch didn't dare to address Ji Tian Ning as' big sister '. However, she knew that when her servant had just arrived, she had called Ji Tian Ning 'Immortal elder sister'.

The maids of the Rain Listening Pavilion's eunuchs were originally trembling with fear when they came here to serve him, but within a few days, they all felt much better. They liked this strange and unfamiliar master.

"A few days ago, His Majesty found out that she had secretly gone to watch the palace's execution. She'd thought that His Majesty would punish her harshly, but he'd only lightly punished the imperial physician's order. He didn't blame her in the slightest. "Why is that?"

The Begonia never saw the reverse scale of fire conniving the imperial concubine in such a manner before. She allowed her concubine to do as she pleased and cast a sidelong glance at Ji Tian Ning's creamy face. Amongst the many makeup materials in the harem, she didn't think that Ji Tian Ning was a peerless person who could make the Six Palaces makeup colorless.

"Elder sister, how are the empress dowager and empress's tempers? Like what? What should I pay attention to? "

"The empress dowager respects the world, and she is benevolent and generous. The empress dowager and empress had given her a lot of gifts, but she had never thanked them for their kindness. Such impoliteness is bound to be of no benefit to my sister. "

"The harem's rules are really annoying. Elder sister, can you accompany me to see the empress dowager?" By the way, what does Her Majesty like? I can also prepare some gifts to please Her Majesty. For a creature like the Empress, I feel that she is very dangerous. What should I pay attention to? "

"The empress dowager was Your Majesty's biological mother, so she wasn't missing anything. She just liked new things." "Since little sister was smart enough to save my Southern Champion Kingdom's first prince, the empress dowager would definitely like to receive more rewards."

Her pitch-black eyes blinked, and her clear eyes were like spring water from a snowy mountain. Her intelligent and charming eyes revealed a bright luster, and her cherry lips were covered in a honey like faint powder that exuded an alluring moisturizing glow. What attracted the most attention was his extraordinary temperament. He was confident and independent.

It was like a lily in the middle of a vast mountain, exuding a unique fragrance that made it seem as though it wasn't a person from the Royal Palace.

"Sister, don't worry. There are no ears here and no one will hear our words. I have no interest in palace fights, and I don't want to participate, so that doesn't mean I'm stupid enough to know nothing. However, this place is not the place I have been staying for a long time.

Qiuxiu was silent for a moment. She was never willing to participate in the scheming battle of the palace, standing outside the storm as a spectator.

"Since little sister has asked, this is the end of the line. The empress dowager is the empress dowager. Naturally, she's incomparably wise and farsighted. The hundreds of imperial concubines and princes numbered in the tens. The empress was the Emperor of the dynasty, when the first level of the settled state, her father along with the late emperor to open the land, so there was a South Court foundation. The empress still sat at the head of the six palaces. Although she had the strength of her family, how could she be the head of the six palaces if she didn't have the wisdom to do so? "

"Big sister, why don't you make it clear? Then what are the temperament of the empress dowager and empress so that little sister won't get hurt by others." Although I have a harmless heart, I do not wish to be harmed by others. I only want to be carefree for a few days and not flow into the muddy waters of this harem. "

"Sigh …"

Qiuxiu let out a faint sigh as her gaze drifted away. Although she admired Ji Tian Ning, the two of them had only known each other for a short period of time. Of course she would hesitate to criticize the empress dowager and empress behind her back.

Ji Tian Ning did not rush him. Instead, he tied up her hair and put it on his head. He took out a string of beads from the jewelry box and tied them to his hair, then tied them with a jade hairpin. A faint smile hung at the corner of his mouth, without any trace of nervousness or worry about loss or gain.

"If you don't do something too outrageous, the empress dowager won't interfere with you. The empress is too secretive, and she won't make things difficult for you in broad daylight." Since you saved the prince and Yangzhao, you have already stepped into the muddy waters of the harem.

"To get out of the mud without staining, Zhouqing not Yao, straight to the outside, do not spread out, fragrance far away, quiet gardening pavilions, can be seen from a distance and not to be blasphemed. The vertical harem is a piece of turbid sewage, what can it do to me? "

His deep eyes lit up as he looked at Ji Tian Ning's calm expression. He sighed in his heart. How could this woman be trapped in the palace? She was dyed black by the dirty vat.

"The harem has a lot of things to do, even if the surface is calm, there will always be a surging undercurrent under the water. Sister, you need to be careful, don't make too many enemies, pay more attention to the people around you. I'll take you to kowtow to the empress dowager and empress tomorrow.

"Thank you sister for the advice, I will take note."

In the cool breeze, the white lotus flowers swayed slowly, and a clear fragrance assaulted the nostrils. It was pleasing to the eye and filled one's heart with joy. Turning back to the Hearing Rain Pavilion, Ling Bo stood alone, like a giant lotus atop a lake.

The Begonia shook her head slightly. Although the concubine of the imperial harem was able to gain the favor of the emperor, she was extremely popular for a time and was extremely popular. But how long could this scene last? A trace of loneliness surged onto her delicate face. She lowered her head to look into the water. How many spring flowers, autumn moons, had she ever received the affectionate gaze of her lover?

"Reporting to the empress dowager, an Imperial Concubine of the Hearing Rain Pavilion has come to pay her respects."

The dazzling palace glistened under the morning sun, but Ji Tian Ning felt a chill in his heart.
