Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 60: bath with son

Thanks to the book friends who are drifting with the wind 1234, helpless mentality, auspicious 1 reward!

Now it was midnight, Zhao Wuxi closed his eyes and covered his face with a fine cloth towel, lying in a large "dish", a large wooden bucket filled with hot water, enjoying a rare hot bath.

When I opened my eyes, I saw a girl's room with a red curtain: a screen embroidered with cloud-shaped patterns, a hazy curtain made of tulle, a table inlaid with shells, and a bronze jug and red and black on it. the lacquer…

That's right, this is Ji Ying's boudoir.

Tonight, he drove for dozens of miles at night in the rain. After arriving at the lower palace, he knelt wetly in front of Zhao Yang for a while, and the chills pierced his body. After he retired, he went to Ji Ying's residence to tell her that the big event was over, and when she didn't have to worry, she sneezed several times in a row, probably because she caught a cold.

Ji Ying couldn't help but put him into his own boudoir, and asked the concubines to help Wu-shirt change clothes and bathe.

The concubines helped him take off his shirt, and then he took off his silk belt and folded his hakama. Zhao Wuxi quickly pulled his belt to stop him and blasted them all out. The girls had also heard that this little gentleman had always disliked being served in the bath, so they covered their mouths and snickered and left.

Spring and Autumn are too far away from the future, so far away that people will have many misunderstandings in their imagination, thinking that the life of the ancients must be very dirty. But after returning here, Zhao Wuyi discovered that the ancients of this era, especially the nobles, were not as unhygienic as later generations imagined, especially compared to people in other parts of the world.

The nomads in the north believe that bathing will pollute the rivers they worship, so they only take three baths in their lives. At birth, before marriage and at burial, Mongolia also forbids Arabs to bathe in rivers after the conquest of Eurasia. Europeans in the Middle Ages thought that illnesses came from water, and as long as they didn’t take a bath, they could avoid getting sick, and it could be regarded as a “way to maintain health”… But in the Spring and Autumn Period, the Chinese people’s hobby of bathing was probably similar to the Romans who liked bathing. Indistinguishable.

Take a bath, take a shower, wash your hair, and take a bath.

Not only for expeditions, sacrifices and other major events to bathe and change clothes, even in normal times, people pay attention to bathing and grooming.

It is the so-called "men and women who do not have a crown, the rooster crowing at the beginning of the year, the salty wash, the thong, the general horn of the whisker, and the thorn, all of which are stinky."

That is to say, after getting up every day, the first thing to do is to wash, comb your hair, organize your grooming, and even wash your hands at least five times a day, that is, "five daily washes (guan.

Generally speaking, qualified scholars and Chinese people take a bath every five days and wash their hair every three days. But Zhao Wuxi couldn't stand shoulder-length hair, so he had to wash it more diligently.

However, the conditions of Chengyi are not to be commended. He can only pour cold water over the noodles with the help of the maid Wei these few days.

In the lower palace, at the elder sister Ji Ying's place, the conditions are much better. There are special concubines here who carry warm soup to add water for him.

However, there is no soap or shampoo right now, so I can only use rice water to bathe my hair and body. People also summed up the rule: use Ji juice for hair care, because it can make hair smooth, and use beam juice for face wash, because it is easy to clean greasy and sweat.

After Zhao Wuxi soaked in the hot water for a while, he felt comfortable all over, and his fatigue was swept away.

At this moment, Ji Ying's voice came from outside.

"No shirt, I went to your original residence to find some clothes. Your armor has already been dried, so you can put it outside."

Through the curtain and screen, you can still vaguely see her graceful shadow.

Zhao Wuxi hurriedly squatted in the water, subconsciously protecting the key parts, he replied, "Wei... sis, you should rest quickly too."

It was just because of the sight in front of him that Zhao Wuxi's body and mind throbbed for a while.

You know, he is now naked, lying in the big wooden barrel that his sister usually bathes in, listening to her sweet voice, thinking of her beautiful face, and smelling the faint girlish body she left behind Fragrant, I don't know if it's an illusion.

The atmosphere was really ambiguous.

In order to prevent himself from thinking wildly, Zhao Wuxi quickly shook his head and recalled what happened before. It didn't matter what he thought, his head started to hurt again.

It's really hard to do...

It turned out that Zhao Yang and Le Qi had verbally established the relationship between their sons and daughters during the winter hunt half a month ago. Although they have not gone through a formal ceremony, Zhao Yang and Le Qi are both faithful and faithful gentlemen. If nothing happens, the marriage is finalized.

It's no wonder that Le's family went to Zhao Yang to the bottom of it, and Zhao Yang was so violent after Le Qi was arrested that he almost brought Zhao's into the fire pit.

It turned out to be my in-laws...

Sadly, Zhao Wuxi is the male protagonist. No wonder he always thinks that whether Le Qi or Chen Yin are good, the eyes of the two Song people looking at him are always wrong, so he is obviously picking a son-in-law... Now, the arrested Le Qi has become his prospective husband-in-law, and Wu Xie must save him.

Zhao Wuxi didn't completely reject the orders of his parents. The arranged marriage according to the matchmaker's words, if the other party was a beautiful and outstanding woman like his sister Ji Ying, it would be better to say. But if you want to meet such wonderful monsters as Wen Jiang, Zhao Zhuangji, Luan Qi, and Nanzi, maybe they will put on all kinds of green hats before they get married, and let him cry?

For Wu Xie, this kind of marriage that hits the big luck is far less attractive than the popular gentlemen and ladies of this era who go into the woods for fornication in the Spring and Autumn Society, or openly run wild.

At least, that's considered free love.

It is said that the most holy teacher, Confucius, came like this...

And when Zhao Yang was young, he also had such an encounter with Ji Ying's biological mother, and it was also said to be a good story, but Zhao Wuxi was not strong in gossip and didn't understand it in detail.

However, from the quality of the parents, you can also see how the children's feelings are. Zhao Wuxi has a very good impression of the Qianqian gentleman's Le Qi. I heard that his family Le's family is famous for "not being greedy as a treasure". Daughter shouldn't be too bad.

Zhao Wuxi felt dazed for a while. It was only a month since he arrived in this era, and his body was only fourteen years old, yet he had already had a fiancée. However, it seems that only his father Zhao Yang and several important retainers know about this matter. His sister Ji Ying should not know it yet, and he doesn't know why, so Zhao Wuxi decided to hide it from her first.

Anyway, there are still several years before he can be crowned adult and can marry a wife.

The water slowly became colder, Zhao Wuxi got up, the Spring and Autumn Nobles bathing is not only a kind of life, but also a kind of etiquette. After cleansing the body reverently, there are a series of things to do after that: wiping the upper body with a fine towel, Wipe the lower body with a rough towel. After getting out of the bathtub, stand on the mat, rinse your feet with hot water, then step on the pouf, put on a cloth to absorb water droplets from your body, and finally put on your shoes. Bomb crown, shake clothes.

After that, he had to hold the hair to squeeze out the moisture, so there was a saying of Zhou Gongdan "one shower and three grips". The hair was draped over the shoulders and waited for it to dry before combing into a fixed hairstyle.

Ji Ying didn't fall asleep, UU reading www.uukanshu.com has been waiting for the shirtless. As usual, she still likes to comb the hair of the shirtless herself. The delicate life of the female nobles is undoubtedly revealed in these small details.

"To comb the wet hair that has just been washed, use a comb made of white wood. When the hair is dry, it is easy to become astringent. In this case, use an ivory comb."

Zhao Wuxi could only sit in front of the bronze mirror, take a nap with his eyes closed, and let her play with it.

After bathing, I also have to drink some thin wine, eat a few pieces of jujube, apricot and other snacks, and at the same time order the musicians to rise to the hall to play the sheng. It is said that this is good for recovering from fatigue. Zhao Wuxi felt that there was no need to be so troublesome, because with Ji Ying by his side, singing Wei Di's ballad "Bo Xi", he won countless Huang Zhong and Da Lu.

"From the east of the uncle, the head is like a flying tent. If there is no ointment, who is suitable for it?"

In the lyrics, "If there is no ointment, who is suitable?" means that after bathing, the hair should be smeared with ointment to make it shiny and smooth. However, Zhao Wuxi resisted this very much, and he preferred to face the sky.

Hearing Ji Ying humming the poem "Three Hundreds of Si Wuxie" in the voice of nature, he was so comfortable that he almost fell asleep. Sometimes I feel that no matter what a prince is dominating the industry, or what he wants to win in the world, it is not as comfortable as this leisurely and comfortable day.

But the next second, Zhao Wuxi suddenly woke up and pinched his thigh.

As the saying goes, he was born in distress and died in peace, but he couldn't lose his spirits in Wenrou Township, because the premise of all this life in front of him was that the Zhao family had to survive this crisis and maintain it in Jin!

The third one is around 7:00 p.m., asking for recommendations and favorites...
