The Bewitching Master of the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 308: Shunzhi Empress Xiaohui Qiqige 41

Xueli couldn't help but blush.

Tus was a little conflicted and seemed hesitant to speak.

The old lady was assigned by Xue Li to watch over the small kitchen.

It was after the cold medicine incident that the old lady began to pay special attention to Xueli's diet.

The palace maid arranged by Oboi who was good at medicine and conditioning was also loved by the old nanny.

So much so that apart from Tus, no one knew that a madman was climbing in through the window every now and then.

At first, Tus was a little scared when he saw Xueli teasing Oboi.

I was determined to keep my mouth shut.

Every time Oboi came, she would tell her servants to do their respective duties.

However, she found out that the emperor had drugged her princess.

All the respect and fear that Tus had for the emperor was gone.

So, I helped a lot to cover it up.

It was only during a few night watches that the queen was seen hugging the bearded man, sometimes humming and sometimes screaming.

Tus felt a chill in his heart.

But when I see Xueli’s happy face every day, I feel relieved.

In Mongolia, the son inherits the father's throne, and the younger brother inherits the elder brother's throne.

So, in her heart, the emperor is a dead man.

It's not normal for someone to admire her at such a young age.

Xue Li watched Tus's expression change with interest.

Sometimes I feel worried, sometimes I feel justified, sometimes I feel scared, and sometimes I feel pity.

Very interesting.

"Tus, you should learn Sichuan Opera face-changing." Xueli nodded, only then did she realize that her maid also had this artistic talent.

Tus's face wrinkled into a bun in an instant.

"My Queen~"

"Hehehe~" Xue Li was in a good mood, so I didn't mind teasing her.

"What is Sichuan Opera face-changing?" Tus had never heard of this term.

Xue Li thought about it and realized that she was wrong.

Then he patted his mouth gently.

Speaking of which, the origin of Sichuan Opera face changing can be traced back to the late Qing Dynasty.

Specifically, this performance form was gradually created and developed by folk artists in Sichuan in order to better express the emotional changes of theatrical characters.

During that period, actors began to experiment with the technique of quickly changing masks to show different emotions and character images, thus enriching the performance methods and artistic expression of Sichuan Opera.

Going back further, the historical origins of Sichuan Opera face-changing can also be linked to ancient Taoist rituals.

During the Song Dynasty, a performance form called "Sanshu" was popular among Taoist groups.

The actors will express different emotions and character images by changing colors, costumes and masks.

This form of performance has undergone continuous development and innovation in the performing arts industry, and gradually evolved into an independent performance form, namely "face changing", during the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

By the end of the Qing Dynasty, Sichuan Opera face-changing had gradually become a unique art form and was widely used in various Sichuan Opera repertoires.

"Just like you did just now. What were you struggling with just now?"

Xue Li simply changed the subject.

This kind of culture is also a problem, it can be revealed easily if you are not careful.

It’s just that it’s a bit inappropriate across eras!

Alas, being invincible is the loneliest~

"Minion, I am just afraid..." Tus didn't say anything else and looked at the gold and jade bracelet on Xueli's wrist.

Of course there are also anklets. Aobai likes to row the oars to the sound of the bells.

There are romance on the hands and love on the feet.

"It doesn't matter. Just do what you need to do. He doesn't have time to care about your wife."

Xueli liked the beautiful bracelet very much.

Jade stones of varying sizes, soft and gentle, are paired with small gold ornaments.

So cute and tight.

The most important thing is that this was woven for her by the burly Aobai himself.

Xue Li thought about it and decided to prepare a small gift for him!

After thinking about it, I drew a blueprint.

Tuwa was asked to make the fabrics, and the gold and silver jewelry were asked to be made in the palace's manufacturing warehouse.

There are also essential oils~

Sydney is still enjoying the feast that is coming in the evening.

Su Malagu came to discuss the rules for the New Year's Day banquet.

Xue Li thought about it and promoted two concubines.

One was the later Ningxu Concubine Dong E, who was also literate since childhood.

One was the later Consort Duanshun, Enchuo, who was the niece of Consort Yijing.

She is usually low-key, but smart and knows when to advance and when to retreat. Xueli likes her very much.

Most of the other Mongolian concubines were the same as Xue Li.

Apart from chattering about eating, drinking and having fun, he is also jealous and Xue Li is annoyed.

She was too lazy to do justice.

When the deposed empress was in power, she kept an eye on the concubines who slept with her every day, perhaps because they were adding fuel to the fire.

Of course, it is true that there is no room for a third person in love.

The reason why she lost after being deposed was because she lost her true heart.

Only those who are not in love are calm.

Just like Sydney.

The Queen Mother was somewhat satisfied when she learned that Xue Li promoted the concubines to help.

It would have been fine if she didn't have her own sister or aunt, but she actually had the niece of Grand Noble Concubine Yijing.

The Queen Mother frowned and looked at Su Malagu.

"What does she think?!"

Su Malagu hesitated for a moment: "Is it possible that the Queen simply thinks that they are smart and capable?"

The Queen Mother paused and looked at Su Malagu speechlessly.

Is it possible? It's absolutely possible!

This is what makes people feel so frustrated.

"Arrange another Ager so that the queen can also learn something. A queen of a country can't be ignorant of everything, right?!"

Su Malagu responded in a low voice.

They were initially afraid that the queen would be greedy for power, but her heartlessness was also a problem.

Shunzhi also received the news early in the morning.

If Xue Li listened to the Queen Mother, she would be in charge of the palace affairs on the surface, but in reality the Queen Mother would still be in control.

He might even want to depose the queen!

However, Xue Li was too useless and he couldn't say anything wrong about it.

Satisfied in his heart, he just arranged for Oboi to deliver the reward.

This was exactly what Oboi and Xue Li wanted.

So several concubines followed Su Malagu and were busy all the time.

Apart from practicing, Xue Li spends her time studying her toys.

Her favorite is a belt with a dark pattern.

She could imagine how exciting it would be to be in Oboi's hands.

There is also a dark black transparent gauze ribbon.

Well, it was cut from under Xue Li’s gauze dress.

Xue Li studied how to tie the knots along the shape of the muscles.

He didn't even know Oboi had come in.

Aobai was very fond of her when he saw her serious look.

Just moving my eyes downward, I saw a naked man and a seductive female demon in a pornographic painting...

He was still a little puzzled, and only when he got closer did he hear Xueli mumbling "How to tie six-pack abs" and "How to tie a mermaid line"...

Oboi thought he was quite sexy.

But seeing Xue Li figuring out how to tie him up, he felt both happy and shy.

"Miss!"

Aobai suddenly spoke, which scared Xueli.

She hurriedly hid it with the erotic picture in one hand and the gauze ribbon in the other.

Seeing that it was Oboi, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's my fault, Your Majesty, don't be angry!" Aobai couldn't help but kiss Xueli when he saw her pouting.

"You scared me, I'm going to punish you!" Xue Li said ferociously.

"Okay, I will obey your orders. Your Majesty, you can punish me however you want and tie me up wherever you want."
