The princess of Nebuchadnezzar II, Amédis from the Medes hills, was depressed because of missing the mountain scenery of his hometown. Nebuchadnezzar II built for her and troubled countless future generations. Historians don't know if there really existed "Sky Garden".
If Lin Luoran hadn't personally returned to New Babylon, when Lin Luoran occasionally glanced at those documents transformed into characters, he might feel soft for such a beautiful legend. But the Princess Medes in front of her, even if she blushed when she mentioned Nebuchadnezzar, Lin Luoran would not forget her other identity-a disciple of a Chinese comprehensionist.
The woman in deep clothes is surnamed Ji. Edith doesn't know the meaning of this surname, but Lin Luoran, as an authentic Chinese, cannot ignore it. At this time, the Zhou Dynasty will collapse, and the Spring and Autumn Period has appeared, but the Zhou clan is still a righteous royal family, Ji Chang, Ji Fa, these names, which Chinese people are not familiar with, who grew up with them, the "Feng Shen Bang", the Zhou royal family, It's Ji's surname...
A direct descendant of Zhou's royal family, and a cultivator, why not travel far and accept a princess of Medes as a disciple? Is it just for Tongtian Tower? If the conspicuous building like the Tongtian Tower has been built, she and Yang Lisha can see it at a glance before entering the city. Therefore, at this point in time when she came through, the Tongtian Tower has not been built yet... These questions entangle her insomnia.
"Lin, can you attend my wedding tomorrow?" Edith was also awake at night. The women in deep clothes never returned. The female slaves never dared to talk to her. The night before she got married, Edith simply stayed in this hall and asked Lin Luoran to talk and be company.
Lin Luoran can imagine that tomorrow will be an unparalleled wedding, but the woman in deep clothing restricts her personal freedom. With both paper charms confiscated, Lin Luoran dare not provoke the woman surnamed Ji. Authoritative, so she shook her head at Edith regretfully.
Edith put her cheeks on her cheeks, and the flames cast a light on her smooth face.
"In fact, the teacher looks harsh, the person is really nice, don't worry, I will help you persuade the teacher."
Lin Luoran burst into tears, really wanting to tell this little girl that your "teacher" is probably not at ease! But, to observe the national marriage of Babylon? The task given by Tongtian Tower is what she wants to do...Will it blend into this era and things will become easier to handle.
She thought for a while, still staring at Edith with the expectant look of "want to go", uh, it was a bit unkind, as if she was deceiving the little girl.
However, Edith was very happy, hugging Lin Luoran and giggling. Let her have a lot of affection for this exotic girl, her personality is really similar to Li Xier, hey, I don't know what level Lin Dad and Yuan Ye will meet, I hope they won't be as unlucky as myself.
Except for the inside of the hall, it was still dark outside, and a group of female slaves swarmed in.
They are holding flowers and silks, long dresses interwoven with gold threads, and belts studded with gems. It is conceivable that tomorrow's wedding will be a cumbersome procedure.
Someone brought a white viscous liquid. Lin Luoran smelled like milk. Would you like to use this to bathe? She remembered the words Xiao Xiaomu had read on the banks of the Euphrates River. Here is the Mesopotamian Plain with milk and honey flowing. It is not as barren as Lin Luoran imagined.
Edith took a milk bath, and did not shy away from dressing in front of Lin Luoran. This is still an open era, unlike Hua Xia a few years later, starting from a certain dynasty, ordering women to follow three virtues and bind their feet. A stranger can look at his naked neck and he may go to death.
Edith is a passionate and unrestrained girl, and a young carcass|The body is supposed to be beautiful, she is not embarrassed to see her self-sufficient expression.
Lin Luoran watched with great interest the female slaves wearing gorgeous long skirts and belts around Edith. Two female slaves were braiding her and putting on makeup. Lin Luoran had an eye-opener for the makeup technique more than two thousand years ago.
It was powder of two colors, blue and black, Lin Luoran sniffed, like some kind of ore milled. Wouldn't it be too good to apply the ore powder directly to the eye sockets?
Lin Luoran remembered that there was still a set of high-end cosmetics given by Baojia a few years ago in the space, and it had not been opened, plus the space’s fresh-keeping ability, should it still work?
She took out her things, and the colorful pearlescent eyeshadows really attracted Edith's eyes.
"Lin, what are these, really beautiful!" A dozen colors of pearlescent eyeshadows, of course, are more eye-catching than monotonous blue and black. Each color is like a dream color. Edith can't put it down.
Lin Luoran coughed dryly, "I think I might be able to paint a different bridal makeup for the princess..."
The compliant female slaves looked at Lin Luoran in astonishment, as if she was a cannibal scourge.
Lin Luoran touched her nose in a somewhat hesitant way. This proposal is indeed a bit risky. This is a veritable national marriage. Aside from the red tape, the queen's makeup and clothes should have specific requirements, right?
Edith's eyes lit up.
Lin Luoran had a foreboding that she might have shot herself in the foot.
…………
"How the **** did this happen?" Edith looked at herself in the bronze mirror. Her eyelashes were originally dense enough, but they weren't the same as they are now, like a fan in the blink of an eye. Her left eye outlines an elegant flower with blue powder. She doesn't recognize this flower, but it looks so beautiful.
The eyebrows are thick, and the skin is covered with a thin layer of white powder and there are no blemishes.
Edith was surprised by Lin Luoran's different bridal makeup, which was different from the ones of Midi and Babylon. It seemed strange at first, but Edith soon discovered that this kind of weird The makeup covered all her small blemishes, her nose was straighter, her eyes were deep and blue, and her lips seemed to be coated with honey, moist and shiny.
Edith was surprised by the product of the mysterious East. In fact, Lin Luoran was also quite surprised that the "bronze mirror" does not distinguish national borders, because it is polished smoothly and more clearly than in many novels, at least Edith Being able to see my face clearly is much more reliable than taking photos with water.
The female slaves were terrified, and Lin Luoran was also under pressure, but it was the unusually common stage makeup of the 21st century. It should be good for the celebration, right?
A gold-encrusted ruby was placed on the forehead for Edith, she was already a Babylonian bride ready.
It's still light, and the sound of musical instruments is already playing in the palace. With the melodious piano sound mixed with the sound of metal percussion, Lin Luoran was invited by Edith to attend the wedding as a court makeup artist.
Lin Luoran followed Buluan cautiously, not finding a woman surnamed Ji to let her breathe a sigh of relief. Edith is solemn and beautiful, and she will soon officially become the princess of Babylon. In such a formal occasion, she must throw away some of the little girls' playfulness.
Before leaving the palace, another team stepped forward. Lin Luoran looked at the sweetness on Edith’s face and knew that Nebuchadnezzar II was sitting on it-this full face A big beard, can't hide the fact that he is a circle bigger than Edith, Lin Luoran has to act a bit like the female slaves of the same group, did not stare at the King of Babylon, his eyes fell on his step. The side.
These people holding the bull-head harp, are they court musicians? There are also gongs, tambourines, and musical instruments she doesn't recognize.
After Nebuchadnezzar saw Edith clearly, he was taken aback for a moment. The paintings on his new princess’s face were completely incompatible with Babylonian traditions...just two more glances, it seemed to be more than Edith. Still beautiful?
Lin Luoran didn't know at this time that she could be recognized by Nebuchadnezzar. Her position as a temporary court makeup artist had actually been quietly corrected.
After the two teams met, the bride and groom did not talk. The team walked along the high city wall to the "Est Gate". Outside the wall was the cheers of the Babylonians.
The Marduk Temple, which is very important to Babylon, is just ahead. The section of the road from "Ist Gate" to Marduk is a parade site for religious activities during grand celebrations, the famous "Rite Avenue" .
According to Edith, she and Nebuchadnezzar will receive the blessing of the high priest at the Marduk Temple, and then they will revel with the people of Babylon.
High priest, the female Xiu surnamed Ji went out last night and didn't come back, so Lin Luoran felt a little uneasy.
