Chapter 066: People in Jianghu call him "Blood Wang"
Meng Jian sat stiffly in the armchair, his hands clenched tightly on his knees, so hard that his knuckles turned white, and he was so obedient that he dared not move.
The girl was right in front of him, staring intently at his face.
Qin Zhaoyue used a powder puff to press vertically and dipped a little Yingdie powder on it. She first applied it to the forehead, cheeks, and chin, and then gently patted and extended it in a radiating manner from the inside to the outside.
To avoid pulling the skin, she placed her fingertips on his cheekbone.
The moment their skin touched, Meng Jian's body stiffened like a sculpture.
He smelled the jasmine-like fragrance wrapped around her fingers, which made him sweat more than the sun in the dog days of summer.
"Why are you sweating so much, Broken Ink!"
Seeing that she was angry, Meng Jian quickly used his true energy to close his pores and forced back the sweat.
But his eyes couldn't help but fall on her lips opening and closing. After realizing it, he quickly looked away, trying hard to restrain his Adam's apple from rolling.
Sui Mo stepped forward and gently wiped the sweat off his forehead with a silk handkerchief, then silently stepped back.
Qin Zhaoqiong stood aside, crossed his arms and frowned several times.
Although the separation between men and women is not as strict as before, it is still awkward to see my sister putting makeup on a man.
But this matter cannot be spread out, and neither she nor Sui Mo knows how to do it.
I was so stunned that my teeth were almost broken!
Qin Zhaoyue pressed her fingertips again and spread the powder evenly using a spiral motion.
Dip in small amounts and multiple times, with gentle and quick movements, without any hesitation.
After the main face is spread out, the details of the nose and the corners of the eyes will be processed.
Dip your fingertips in a small amount of Yingdie powder and lightly sweep it up and down the bridge of your nose. Use your ring finger to gently apply it to the temples at the end of your eyes.
It is her habit to apply in one direction without repetition, which can avoid wrinkles and powder sticking.
After finishing the face, use a powder puff to sweep the neck vertically from top to bottom to connect the skin color with the face.
Finally, cover lightly with a dry silk towel and press to absorb excess powder.
Seeing her stand up, Meng Jian let out a deep breath, his palms already wet.
My heart skipped a beat, and then it started beating like a war drum.
After completing one task, Qin Zhaoyue took out the box of wax and sniffed it. Indeed, there was no strong smell.
Because she had never used it before, she took out a little and applied it on the back of her hand, gently spreading it to feel the viscosity.
The atmosphere in the room was so oppressive that Meng Jian couldn't breathe, and now he couldn't even control his heartbeat.
He desperately needed a breakthrough, and his already debilitated brain squeezed out a question: "Sixth Prince! I have a question."
Qin Zhaoyue didn't even raise her head. "Don't ask. If you ask, I've never loved you."
Meng Jian:!
Broken Ink:!
Qin Zhaoqiong:!
"No... no, I want to ask why you have cultivation?"
Qin Zhaoyue found that the wax was quite good, with just the right consistency and excellent adsorption. Hearing this, he answered without thinking:
"It's because of his extraordinary talent. When his Qi and blood reached their limit, he automatically generated True Qi."
After trying almost everything, she walked up to Meng Jian again and said, "I have a nickname called Blood Fermentation in the martial arts world. Haven't you heard of it?"
Meng Jian: ...
Broken Ink: ...
Qin Zhaoqiong: Unheard of!
"Then Zhaoyue, you haven't practiced any martial arts?"
"No."
Qin Zhaoqiong fell silent. She felt that her sixth sister was not lying. This talent...
After returning to the capital, I must advise my mother to go to the armory to find a book of martial arts.
Different people are suitable for different kinds of exercises. For example, she and the third and fourth brothers practice different ones.
Qin Zhaoyue knew that he had been exposed and that he couldn't hide his cultivation level, so he could only attribute it to his talent in a casual tone.
After carefully applying the wax, the three of them looked at it from near and far, but they couldn't find any flaws at first. It just looked pale and weak.
"Sixth sister is amazing!"
"It's normal. Although the outer layer of wax has a certain waterproof effect, you still have to be careful not to get too wet or go into the water.
First, let’s see how long the effect lasts. If it doesn’t work, I’ll find another opportunity to touch up my makeup.”
"well."
Hearing that he might have to put on makeup like this in the future, Meng Jian agreed hesitantly.
Qin Zhaoyue put her hands on her hips, quite satisfied that her craftsmanship had not been lost.
"The appearance is almost there. Come on, pretend to be injured."
Meng Jian stood up and calmed himself down. He was still somewhat confident in this regard. After all, he had seen many injured soldiers in the army.
Bending over, his face was filled with pain, "Cough cough cough..."
"How is it, not bad, right?"
Qin Zhaoqiong crossed his arms and looked fine, but he always felt something was wrong.
At this time, Sui Mo suddenly said, "Like an old lady", and she suddenly realized.
Qin Zhaoyue stroked his forehead and said, "With your poor acting skills, you can't even make a living in skits."
"What is a skit?"
"Shut up!"
There was no other way, she could only come out and give guidance herself.
"I want to vomit after drinking too much, but I can't help but hold it in..."
"Yes, that's it," he said, frowning slightly.
"Just a little bit, it's just excruciating pain, but you're a man, you can't show that feeling..."
After half a cup of tea, he finally learned it well. Qin Zhaoyue said he was very tired.
After everything was discussed, the four of them were about to go to the front to have lunch, but they ran into Yaoguang as soon as they opened the door.
In fact, they had arrived a long time ago, but there was a blockade of true energy around them.
She could have broken it open, but that would have surely alerted the people inside, so she chose to wait at the door.
"Sixth Prince, let me serve you."
Qin Zhaoyue shook his head calmly, "You don't know my habits, it's easy to reveal flaws, maybe next time."
Meng Jian, with a pale face and a weak look, stepped forward and clasped his fists.
"Excuse me, Miss Yaoguang, when I was in the Mingyan County medical area, there were experts secretly spying on me. I wonder if there is any investigation?"
Yaoguang hesitated for a moment before revealing a piece of information: "We've found the person, but we're still investigating."
Qin Zhaoyue's heart skipped a beat.
At first she suspected that Sui Mo was lying, but now even Xuanji Guards have confirmed it. Is there really someone who has chased her here from the capital?
Watching the four people leaving, Yaoguang pursed her lips and said nothing. Why did she feel that the Sixth Prince avoided her like the plague?
The banquet was served in the central hall, with three dishes in total: stewed lamb, simmered chicken soup, and a pitifully small portion of cold-fried summer cabbage.
Zhou Yanqing, who was sitting below him, bowed and said, "Your Highness, please forgive me. The flood has blocked the waterway. I can still provide some meat, but the vegetables are really..."
Qin Zhaoqiong waved his hand and didn't care.
The only key industry in Chiyan County is mining, and the land is barren and not conducive to farming.
Food and seasonal vegetables are basically transported by shipping, so this was the focus of her previous food relief arrangements.
Zhou Yanqing asked again, "Is this Commander Meng of the Imperial Guards? Is he feeling unwell?"
Meng Jian heard this, his back still straight, but he frowned slightly.
Just as he was about to speak, Qin Zhaoqiong took over the conversation.
"When Mingyan County released the floodwaters earlier, Commander Meng was injured. County Magistrate Zhou, don't worry about it. Let's talk about the flood control and disaster relief efforts."
"yes!"
Qin Zhaoyue acted casually. After tasting two bites of the food, he felt that it tasted okay. At least it was much better than eating dry food.
The other people who attended the banquet did not bring their personal attendants, except for Sui Mo on her left and Tao Yao on her right. One served tea and water, and the other wiped sweat and her mouth. Anyway, it was in line with her character.
"This braised lamb dish is pretty good. Does the kitchen have any more? Send two servings to Ping An."
Poor kid, he went on a business trip right after starting work. He has been basically relying on staple foods for a while and hasn’t eaten meat very often.
Tao Yao covered her mouth and chuckled, "Don't worry, Your Highness, the sisters will take care of it."
Don't be fooled by his strong appearance, he is actually just a child. During these days of getting along with each other, both the Mo Group and Suimo Taoyao have taken good care of him.
After dinner, Qin Zhaoqiong rejected the county magistrate's suggestion to rest for a night and immediately asked to go to the mine for investigation.
At the hour of Hai, the rain had not stopped.
Everyone put on straw raincoats, lit pine torches, and rode their horses into the rain...
