As time goes by, the Ming New Year of Ankang's third year has finally arrived.
On the day before the Chinese New Year, Zhu Jingyuan once again gave Charlotte and Charles a new set of clothes.
It's still an extremely cute Lolita-style women's clothing.
Because the design and decoration itself are complex enough, even the same style can be quickly changed into many styles.
When Ciel looked at these new women's clothes, his expression and mood were very complicated.
Ciel picked up the pair of Lolita high heels and placed them in front of his eyes, admiring them with great trepidation.
Generally speaking, it has the shape of a pump, but there are three shoe loops on the front and back of the instep, and the edges of the shoe loops on both sides are exquisite lace edges.
There are still heels that are at least five centimeters thick, and soles that are at least four centimeters thick.
The shape of the sole is completely in line with the shape of the foot. The sole is also widest where the foot is widest, and narrows where the foot is narrowest.
It should fit your feet very well and be relatively comfortable.
It's definitely more comfortable than the slim high heels on my own feet.
Charles looked at the size in turn and found that it was indeed made according to his own data.
Zhu Jingyuan sat next to him and looked at Charles:
"Tell me honestly, have you ever worn the women's clothes I gave you before in private?"
Ciel almost jumped up:
"No, absolutely not!"
Zhu Jingyuan said seriously:
"Since you really don't wear it and just collect it for appreciation, there is no need for me to ask the craftsman to make two sizes.
"Just make two sets according to Charlotte's size and give you one set for collection."
Ciel's expression suddenly became particularly tangled:
"This... the clothes in my collection are in Charlotte's size. How can this be done..."
Zhu Jingyuan continued:
"You don't have to use Charlotte's size, you can just use your mother's size. You can wear it for your mother when you go back.
“There’s no point in using your size if you don’t wear it yourself, or even try it on.”
Charles opened his mouth, hesitated for a long time, and finally said very quietly:
"My dear friend, I confess to you, I actually... wore it during the interview in my room..."
Zhu Jingyuan felt happy and almost laughed out loud on the spot.
But on the surface, he forcibly tensed up and looked very angry:
"Okay, you can secretly try on the clothes I gave you, but don't show them to me, the designer!
"Are we still friends? I'm so kind to you for nothing! I won't give you clothes anymore!"
Seeing that Zhu Jingyuan was angry, Charles immediately apologized in a panic:
"I'm sorry, my dear friend, I shouldn't have tried on the clothes you designed without telling you my actual feelings and effects.
"But... I think that is too shameful, and I don't have the courage to tell you."
Zhu Jingyuan continued to say with a straight face:
"What do you mean you don't have the courage to tell me? Aren't we friends?
“Didn’t we say that if there is anything we can discuss with our friends first?
"Why did you forget about this?"
Ciel apologized more seriously again:
"I'm sorry. I apologize to you. It's all my fault."
Zhu Jingyuan nodded lightly:
"Okay, it's good to know that you were wrong, but what's the use of verbally apologizing.
"You should show it with actions. Go put it on now and show it to me."
What Zhu Jingyuan is doing now is not like ordinary modern people who want to watch their friends dress up in women's clothing.
Zhu Jingyuan used various logics to make him constantly recognize and obey himself, constantly breaking his inner self-awareness.
Make him feel that his thinking and decisions are wrong, and that his thoughts and instructions are correct.
The more this kind of thing happens, he will gradually give up his original way of thinking and take his own words as the truth for granted.
In the future, when he thinks, speaks, and does things, he will instinctively follow the logic that he has instilled in him.
At the same time, the logic I instilled in him was not necessarily my own thinking logic.
The essential purpose of doing this is to make the other party obey, not to improve the other party's thinking and work efficiency.
Therefore, this logic does not need to be completely correct and can even be counter-intuitive.
Ability to interpret counter-intuitive things as natural and allow the other party to sincerely acknowledge them.
The other person can make the other person in front of others, creating the effect that everyone is drunk and he is alone.
The control effect of this logic will be better, the duration will be longer, and the resistance to other logic will be stronger.
In the future, even when he is not next to him, he will still live according to the logic he instilled.
This is brainwashing.
Of course, Zhu Jingyuan will not brainwash Charles into a psychopath.
He is just strengthening Ciel's trust and obedience to himself through various lifestyle habits that have no substantial harm.
Although Ciel felt very ashamed to dress up as a woman in front of others.
But I also think what Zhu Jingyuan said makes sense.
So in the midst of anxiety and entanglement, I finally nodded gently:
"I understand, dear friend, please wait a moment..."
Charles returned to the room and opened the clothes box Zhu Jingyuan gave him.
With slightly trembling hands, she picked up the cute skirt underneath and licked her dry lips vigorously.
Because he was too ashamed and excited, Charles spent half an hour in the room before finally putting on the women's clothing.
With excitement and anxiety, he staggered out and showed it to Zhu Jingyuan outside.
Ciel was born in the royal family and was born fair and tender. He has been losing weight in the past few years, so he is very thin.
Putting on the very cute Lolita women's clothing, she really feels like a smaller and cute girl.
When Zhu Jingyuan saw this scene, he didn't appreciate it carefully and just gave him a thumbs up with a smile on his face:
"Okay, very beautiful. If I hadn't known in advance, I would have regarded you as a beautiful princess."
If he gives up his decision and follows his own requirements, he must give him encouragement and support.
On the contrary, if he insists on his own decision, especially if it goes against his own will, he will be targeted.
Attack the other person's self-will and establish my ideological authority.
This logic sounds simple, but it is not easy to do.
In terms of knowledge level, social experience, expression ability, logical thinking, status, etc., there must be something better than the person you want to control.
Therefore, the higher the education level, the older the person, and the higher the status, the easier it is to succeed when facing someone with the opposite characteristics.
With two lifetimes of experience, Zhu Jingyuan has experienced the modern era of information explosion, and he was still the prince and prince of the Ming Dynasty.
Even though Charles had a high status, he was naturally at a disadvantage in front of Zhu Jingyuan.
It is not difficult for Zhu Jingyuan to brainwash Charles.
Ciel's cheeks were flushed now. He was obviously extremely embarrassed, but he felt a little inexplicable excitement in his heart:
"Really...am I really beautiful now?"
Zhu Jingyuan smiled and nodded:
"Yes, it's really beautiful, so you should wear this kind of clothes, you don't need to avoid this.
"So you can wear this kind of clothes as daily clothes from now on."
When Charles heard Zhu Jingyuan say that he was beautiful, he felt inexplicably happy.
But when I heard the second half, I was obviously surprised:
"You want to treat these clothes as daily clothes...but...this is women's clothing!
"I just want to show it to my best friend. I really don't dare to wear it outside!"
Zhu Jingyuan shook his head very seriously this time:
“You think this kind of clothing is women’s clothing, it’s just a perception imposed on you by society.
"Think about it for yourself, when you feel ashamed to wear such clothes, when you instinctively resist such clothes.
"Is it because you instinctively feel that the design style and type of this kind of clothes are 'women's clothes'?
“The key is that you feel like it’s women’s clothing and it has nothing to do with it.”
Charles thought for a while:
"That seems to be the case..."
Zhu Jingyuan continued to guide his thoughts:
"Think about it again, if you see this kind of clothing for the first time, if this kind of clothing appears for the first time in the world.
“If no woman has ever worn it before, you don’t have the concept of women’s clothing in your mind.
"If everyone else didn't know it was 'women's clothing,' would you still feel ashamed to wear something like this?"
Charles thought about it again:
“This way other people won’t think I’m wearing something weird, but I’m definitely still ashamed inside.
"Because in my own perception, I know this is women's clothing..."
Zhu Jingyuan sighed in his heart. In fact, this was also his own logic.
They thought the new Ming-style formal clothes they had designed before and the clothes Charles usually wore were men's clothes, but they thought they were women's clothes, so they couldn't put them on.
But I can't agree with this logic now, so I want to do the opposite:
"Keep thinking about it, the clothes I gave you before, I once said they were actually women's clothes.
“But are you completely unashamed?
"Because although I define those clothes as women's clothes, you yourself don't have that concept.
“Concepts are artificially defined, and clothes themselves are not male or female.”
Charles felt that what Zhu Jingyuan said made sense, but it was still difficult to overcome the instinctive knowledge in his heart:
"It turns out... you can still think about it this way... My dear friend, what you said does make sense...
"However, although the concept is artificially defined,... this definition has been determined.
"The current definition is that this kind of clothing is women's clothing, and my dear friend, your clothing is men's clothing."
Zhu Jingyuan spread his hands and said:
“The definition can be modified and will change with the changes in society and the promotion of special people.
“The clothes I designed may be considered men’s clothing by you traditional aristocrats, but the female civil servants in Dongyi Kingdom all wear them this way.
"Now, ordinary women in Dongyi Kingdom have also spontaneously tried this kind of clothes.
“As the crown prince of France and the fashion pioneer of France, your influence far exceeds those of female civil servants.
“So you should lead the fashion trend instead of being caught up in the trends set by others.
“It’s up to you to determine the attributes of clothing yourself, rather than being bound by the boring and stupid definitions of ordinary people.
“You should take the initiative to change the world, rather than blindly follow the trend.
"Just like I thought that the new Ming-style formal clothes I designed were women's clothing, so I used them as uniforms for the female civil servants of Dongyi Kingdom.
"So you should take the lead in wearing these beautiful clothes and turn them into workers' men's clothing in Thai and Western society."
Charles slowly widened his eyes, feeling that he had completely figured it out:
"I want to change the world instead of following the crowd. I understand that my best friend, you are really my life mentor..."
Zhu Jingyuan smiled and nodded:
“That’s right, this is the way people like us should think.
"Okay, live in your clothes, I'm going to deliver clothes to Charlotte now."
Charles subconsciously wanted to go out with Zhu Jingyuan, but when he thought about the clothes he was wearing, he instinctively wanted to shrink back. The shame in his heart was natural.
But thinking about Zhu Jingyuan's guidance just now, and thinking about the truth that I just wanted to understand, I finally took a step forward:

"I'll go with you."
But Zhu Jingyuan refused:
“Don’t be so eager for quick success, changing the world cannot be achieved overnight.
"I know you still feel ashamed in your heart, so don't be in a hurry to go out and meet outsiders.
“So first move around in your own yard and get used to the feeling of living in this kind of clothes.
"Also let your servants get used to you wearing this kind of clothes.
“Then slowly expand the scope of activities to let more people get used to your new image.
“Finally, let others wear this style of clothing with you.”
Ciel nodded seriously:
"My dear friend, you have considered everything carefully. Step by step is indeed the best..."
