The gorgeous beige satin dress, although not embellished with too many pearls and gems, is suddenly rich in intricate embroidery.

Wen Lin picked it up, it was unexpectedly soft and smooth.

For no reason, Wen Lin thought of being gently stroked by Vicia's fingertips that night. After the scene, the slightly cold touch still seems to remain on the neck.

Breathing slowly sank, Wen Lin looked at the skirt in her hand unconsciously.

And as Bessie was walking down a deserted path, a strong arm suddenly stretched out from the shadows and pulled her into the corner.

"Dear, how about what I asked you to inquire about?" Hu Ke in the interrogation room did not forget to give a deep kiss.

Hook was born in a small nobleman and was fortunate to be elected to the Royal Knights. He usually inquired about news for the nobles outside the palace in exchange for compensation.

Since the last assassination, the Queen has not shown her face in public. The sudden visit of the Queen Sistine, and the rumored guests from the East, these three aspects of news made the nobles of the capital very curious.

After seeing the person coming, Bessie swallowed the exclamation in her throat and shyly pushed Hook away.

"The queens of the two countries and Miss Wen Lin will be attending the dinner tonight,"

Hu Ke didn't think much, and after spending time with Bessie, he hurried out of the palace and spread the news.

Brunz is the political, economic, and cultural capital of the Golan, and Wehmint Castle is at the center of the power vortex.

But in just two or three hours, the news that the Queen would hold a banquet at the royal court to welcome Queen Tilia tonight spread throughout the entire royal capital.

Serious politicians have speculated about the meaning of Queen Tilia's sudden visit to the Golan, while the noble ladies and ladies in the mansion prefer and discuss the guests from the East.

The far east seems to have a mysterious attraction to everyone.

In the early days of the Great Voyage Age, the connection between the East and the West was poor, and the few impressions were passed down from the travel notes written by an explorer named Marco Pineapple.

I heard that it is a powerful country called Ming, with a population and territory dozens of times that of the Golan, and treasures and gold everywhere.

"In their country, can civilians use the wealth of going to sea?"

"And she's a lady? What a mysterious country,"

"Everyone, don't you think she's not necessarily a commoner? Maybe she's a noble from the East?"

"Otherwise, why would the queen keep her in the royal court?"

"..."

Without Wen Lin's knowledge, she became a hot discussion figure in the circle of ladies in the capital.

The proud expressions of the noble ladies and ladies who have been invited are self-evident.

This can better reveal the identity and status of an orthodox nobleman than an ordinary banquet.

The aristocratic ladies and young ladies dressed up in full force, took out their most gorgeous and luxurious skirts, and the most expensive cosmetics, tried them again and again, and never got tired of it.

The River Tam seemed to be unable to feel the restlessness of the capital, and flowed in an everlasting tranquility.

The wind blew the leaves, casting swaying shadows, stepping on the fallen leaves with fast and hasty footsteps, making a crisp click.

Wen Lin was shocked by the sound, and the tips of her ears were slightly hot.

Looking up, Bessie was walking quickly holding a wooden box and opened the box. There were all kinds of cosmetics in the box.

"Ms. Wen Lin, this is the most popular cosmetic product in Wangdu. If you dress up well, you will surely amaze everyone at the dinner party."

Out of sincere praise, the long black hair is as smooth as satin, and the features full of exotic features are in no way inferior to the beauty of Golan.

If it must be a high or low level, Bessie feels that there is no one more beautiful than Wen Lin except Her Majesty Vicia.

But things didn't go as smoothly as Bessie had expected.

Wen Lin picked up the powder used to smear her face, sniffed it, and rubbed the red beeswax lip balm with her fingers. She looked surprised, but she still couldn't hide her disgust.

These are the most valuable cosmetics that Bessie could find. Seeing Wen Lin who said nothing, she asked nervously,

"Miss Wen Lin, is there anything wrong with these cosmetics?"

Wen Lin pursed her lips and asked back, "Is this all the cosmetics everyone uses?"

Nodding nervously, Bessie explained,

"Although the prices vary, they are almost the same. The reason for their price is mostly the container. The containers used by the nobles will be more delicate and embedded with various precious ornaments."

Wen Lin was shocked. She had read in the literature that most of the cosmetics in this century are poisonous.

For example, for whitening, the face is painted with white powder containing heavy metals, such as lead powder, while the lipstick is made of cinnabar powder mixed with beeswax. The main component of cinnabar is mercury sulfide.

Long-term use of these things will inevitably lead to heavy metal poisoning.

Although it is impossible to determine what ingredients these powders contain, but based on the confirmed cinnabar lipstick, Wen Lin dares to conclude that her guesses are closely related.

After closing the box, Wen Lin looked at Bessie who was looking forward to her words, but she threw up her hands helplessly.

"Betsy, I'm very grateful for your kindness, but I'm very unaccustomed to using these things,"

"Why," Bessie was very puzzled.

Wen Lin didn't know how to explain it, and she couldn't explain the reason for a while.

This is something that people have been using for decades, and suddenly it is said that it contains highly toxic, and no one can predict what kind of chaos it will cause.

Compared with convincing people here, Wen Lin believed that she was more likely to be treated as a nonsense lunatic or a witch with ulterior motives, which would lead to prison.

In some ways, this is an age of folly and absurdity.

But looking back on her experience during this time, Wen Lin cannot deny that it was also an era full of love, loyalty, faith and many other beautiful things.
