Chapter 1076: Chapter 1074: You Are Beautiful
Wufu and the others waited outside holding tea, waiting until there was a good quarter of an hour of scolding inside before hearing that the Commandery Princess let them in.
Scolding for a quarter of an hour, this wasnât just a bit of a bad temper, but rather some mania.
Qing Xin awkwardly smiled and led Wufu and the others inside. Wufu saw a woman in a white dress, about her own age, standing in the room, with her chin raised, looking at Wufu and the others with a haughty gaze.
"Wufu pays respects to Princess Changping." Wufu bent her knees slightly, then stood straight. She had no interest in kneeling and kowtowing to others.
Princess Changping frowned at this, obviously displeased with Wufuâs manner of etiquette. She wanted to retaliate, but Wufuâs eyes calmly met hers, the black pupils shining extraordinarily bright, making her words choke in her throat.
Wufu glanced at Princess Changping, secretly relieved in her heart that the person before her wasnât ugly. Otherwise, transforming an ugly woman into a goddess would take much more time and effort.
The person before her, by appearance, was roughly 1.75 meters tall, exceptionally tall, and it was unclear whom her looks took after. She had thick eyebrows, big eyes, slightly thick lips, well-defined features, and an extremely heroic air. Most importantly, her complexion was a healthy wheat color, purely natural and not artificially tanned.
Wufu sighed softlyâa wheat-colored complexion, she liked it too, how athletic-looking it was. Unfortunately, whether in her past life or now, her skin was always fair.
"Have you seen enough?" Changping snorted coldly. Although Wufu was staring at her, she could distinguish if that gaze bore disdain or something else. Was Wufu liking her?
Yes, liking. Did she have bad eyesight? Or was it delusion, thinking the other liked her darkness?
The Princess Changping looked at Wufuâs flawlessly fair face, a trace of envy and annoyance flashed in her eyes. If she also had such fair and tender skin, she wouldnât be repeatedly mocked.
But since there was no malice from the other side, Princess Changping didnât lash out but held it in.
"Sorry, in this Changan City, Iâve seen too many beautiful girls in white and have gotten tired of them. Itâs rare to see a black beauty and I got slightly distracted." Wufu laughed heartily.
"Black... beauty?" Princess Changping almost squeezed the words through her teeth, wanting to ask if this was a compliment or a mockery to the princess.
"Indeed, the princess is very beautiful." Wufu stepped forward, pulling her and seating her at the dressing table, pointing to the person in the bronze mirror, "Look at these eyebrows, so thick and black, they donât need any spiral eyebrow dye; just a little grooming will do. And this nose, so high and straight, the eyes are big, and the lips full and seductive, isnât it beautiful? As for this skin, pure natural wheat color, how healthy."
Wufu was not spouting nonsense. This Princess Changping indeed had a touch of Western beauty, with deep-set eyes and three-dimensional features. She couldnât understand why she insisted on having fair skin.
Though dressing in white doesnât quite suit her. She glanced again at the clothes rack on the side, twitching her mouthâpink, green, or azureâall embracing tender colors, giving her clarity on what this lady usually wore.
"Am I really beautiful?" Princess Changping touched her face, following Wufuâs hand in looking at herself.
In this era, who doesnât like slender delicate ladies, with small cherry-like mouths, skin like congealed fat rouge, and willow-leaf eyebrows... Only she, with thick lips, deep eyes, and dark skin.
But, did this Wufu say she was beautiful?
