Bab 144: Chapter 144 Is there plenty of fish to eat?

When the court ladies lifted their heads, the concubines all looked at the young and beautiful ladies with a hint of jealousy in their eyes.

Li Xiaolei, playing a court lady, stepped forward brazenly and flatteringly said, "Empress, this is the face powder I brought from home, it's particularly good, why don't you try it?"

Upon hearing this, the Empress glanced at the small box of face powder cradled in her two hands and gestured for a palace maid to take it.

Immediately, the leading palace maid took the face powder from the court lady's hands and held it with both hands.

She carefully presented it to the Empress, while the other two palace maids behind her brought out a mirror from the room.

After receiving the face powder from the court lady, the Empress brought it close to her nose and smelled it; it had a unique fragrance, quite pleasant, and she wanted to try it right away.
