Chapter 136 Rouge
Chen Tang's heart was shocked. She turned her head and saw some red rashes on Xie Guimo's neck. The rashes were even more clearly visible on his charming face.
Just now he wanted to kiss her, but she dodged in time, so he only kissed her on the face. Is this not okay? !
She also had something on her face that gave him an allergic rash—
But her face is only exposed to water and rouge all day long.
"rouge!"
Chen Tang suddenly remembered that a few days after Concubine Ye asked the second wife to enter the palace, she and Shen Xi went out of the house to buy rouge!
Because the rouge was bought from the Rouge Pavilion and was directly handed over to the maid by the shop assistant, and Xie Guimo sent someone to eavesdrop on the conversation between Shen Xian and the Second Madam, the two did not know what caused Xie Guimo to have a rash. In the previous life, they had checked the lip balm and found no problems, so Shen Tang did not think much about it.
Now it seems that there will be problems with the rouge once it gets into her hands.
The people in Yanzhi Pavilion are most likely from Concubine Ye and the Marquis of Changping’s Mansion!
Chen Tang wanted to give the rouge to Xie Guimo, but when he saw Xie Guimo scratching his neck, Chen Tang turned around and went to get him some medicine first.
Although the medicine had been boiled long ago and had been left for a while, the ceramic medicine jar heated up slowly and cooled down slowly. When Shen Tang reached out to lift the lid of the jar, she gasped because it was so hot.
Xie Guimo walked over in two or three steps, grabbed her hand and asked, "Are you burned?"
Shen Tang shook his head lightly, "It's okay."
She wanted to pour the medicine for Xie Guimo, but Xie Guimo said, "I can do it myself."
Xie Guimo poured the medicine into a bowl, then took it to the table and waited for it to cool down before drinking it. At that time, Chen Tang had already brought over the three boxes of rouge that he had bought that day, and handed them to Xie Guimo, saying, "This is the rouge I bought at the Rouge Pavilion after I caught the assassin in Changping Marquis' Mansion. This is what I have been using these days..."
As he spoke, Shen Tang paused, “I also checked the rouge and powder I used in my previous life, and there was nothing wrong with it.”
Xie Guimo said, "Maybe you are looking in the wrong direction. Rouge and powder are not poisonous, so there is naturally no problem."
They just added some things that were harmless to Shen Tang but would cause him to have a rash.
Tomorrow he will try to see if there is anything wrong with these rouge, and then compare them with the rouge sold in Rouge Pavilion to see what is missing.
I hope there really is something wrong with the rouge, otherwise I really don’t know where to check.
Xie Guimo put down the rouge, reached out and touched Shen Tang's face, then took her hand and walked towards the shelf with the copper basin. There was water in the copper basin. He reached out and tried it, and it was not cold.
Xie Guimo said, "Wash your face."
Isn't it said that rouge is non-toxic? Is it okay for her to use it? Why do you ask her to wash her face?
Chen Tang looked at him, and Xie Guimo directly washed her face. However, Xie Guimo's hands were heavily calloused as a martial artist, and it felt stinging when he shaved his face. She said, "I'll wash it myself."
She buried her face in the water, washed off the rouge, and then dried it with a towel.
Chen Tang was about to put the towel in the copper basin, but before she put it in, Xie Guimo pulled her into his arms. Before she could react, he kissed her.
Chen Tang, "......!!!"
His kiss was overbearing, wishing to rob her of all her breath, and he kissed Shen Tang so hard that her body went limp and she could barely stand.
She wondered why this bastard wanted her to wash her face. If she knew he wanted to kiss her, it would be strange that she would wash it.
Chen Tang was so confused by the kiss that he let her go. Chen Tang said angrily, "You..."
I had just said one word when I was blocked again.
Chen Tang was so angry that she punched him, but she was just using that little strength to tickle Xie Guimo, and he thought it was not enough. He kissed Chen Tang until she was almost suffocated, and then he let her go. Chen Tang said, "Do you want to die or not?!"
Xie Guimo touched Chen Tang's neck and earlobe and said, "Just a kiss on the face and you have to eat a bowl of bitter medicine, can you bear it?"
I have to take medicine anyway, so at least let him kiss me enough.
This bastard made her sound so pitiful, and no one forced him to kiss her, but seeing the rash on his face, Shen Tang couldn't bear it. He kissed her again, and she didn't resist, but responded.
It would have been better if she didn't respond. As soon as she responded, the bastard pushed her away. Shen Tang was stunned. She saw Xie Guimo let go of her, walked towards the table, drank the medicine in one breath, picked up the rouge, and jumped out of the window without looking back.
Chen Tang, "......???"
Is this person seriously ill?
She pushed him and shoved him, and insisted on kissing her.
After I kissed him, he ran faster than anyone else.
Chen Tang didn't know that because of her response just now, a certain gentleman almost lost control of himself. God knows how much effort he used to suppress the urge to carry her to bed. If he stayed any longer, he really couldn't guarantee that he could control himself.
Facing the empty window, a small flame was burning in Chen Tang's eyes.
Let’s talk about a certain gentleman. He jumped out of the window. The wind blew away the heat in his heart by a little bit. He climbed over the wall and left Pingyuan Marquis Mansion with ease.
But when he jumped onto the horse, he noticed someone was looking at him. He glanced over and saw a man in black riding on the horse, looking at him in shock.
Xie Guimo frowned slightly, and Chen Qi stepped forward and said to the man in black, "Don't get me wrong, my young master passed by Pingyuan Marquis Mansion..."
The man in black: "..."
The man in black twitched his mouth and rode away on his horse.
Chen Qi, "..."
Chen Qi was tired. Others had to worry about being misunderstood when they climbed over the wall. But his own young master was caught climbing over the wall of Marquis Pingyuan's Mansion. He was afraid of being suspected of just passing by. It was a rare opportunity to meet someone from Marquis Pingyuan, and he wanted to get close to him so that he could propose marriage as soon as possible. But in the end, he just left like that.
He didn't know whether Pingyuan Hou's secret guards heard clearly what he just said, and they wanted to catch up with him to say it again.
Inside the house, Chen Tang touched his lips that were burning from being kissed, and turned to drink tea. Outside, Ginkgo and Qiu Tong didn't hear any movement in the house, so they quietly pushed the door open and came in.
As soon as the two maids entered the house, Si'er ran in from behind and said, "Miss, the second wife also fainted while kneeling in the ancestral hall..."
Outer courtyard study.
Shen Sui was writing a memorial. Just as he picked up his pen and dipped it in ink, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
The servant pushed the door open and reported, "My Lord, the Second Wife fainted after kneeling in the ancestral hall. The old lady asked for her to be carried back to the South Courtyard..."
It was Shen Sui who punished the Second Wife to kneel in the ancestral hall. When the Second Wife fainted from kneeling, she must have informed Shen Sui.
Shen Sui had a cold expression and said nothing.
The servant left, and the sound of a door closing was heard. A dark shadow flashed through the window, and there was an extra person in the room. It was the secret guard who had just seen a certain master climbing over the wall to escape.
The secret guard followed Shen Sui's orders and went to do the work, saying, "The matter that the Marquis ordered has been completed."
Shen Sui nodded, but the secret guard did not retreat, but hesitated to speak.
Shen Sui saw it and said, "Anything else you want to report?"
The secret guard said, "Just now, I came back and saw Prince Jingyang climbing over the wall out of the Marquis' Mansion..."
Almost instantly, Shen Sui's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could pinch a fly to death. He asked, "Passing by my Pingyuan Marquis's Mansion?"
Secret guard: "..."
There was a moment of silence.
The secret guard said, "The guards of Prince Jingyang saw me and told me not to misunderstand. His master, Prince Jingyang, was passing by our Pingyuan Marquis Mansion..."
Shen Sui, "..."
If he hadn't passed by Marquis Pingyuan's Mansion, how could the Prince of Jingyang have climbed over the wall and left?
It's no wonder that Shen Sui didn't think much about it. After all, Xie Guimo was engaged to Shen Ying before, and he also canceled the marriage proposal from Pingyuan Marquis' Mansion. Shen Sui didn't think that Xie Guimo fell in love with his daughter.
But he also thought of the time when Chen Tang frightened a horse on the street and was saved by Xie Guimo. On the day he fell into the water, Xie Guimo jumped into the water but failed to save him. He was also discussed in teahouses and taverns about why he jumped into the water. Even more strange was that a certain gentleman went to burn paper at the grave of his deceased wife Jiang.
Everything about it was strange.
Could it be that the man who wants to marry Tang'er is the Prince of Jingyang?
This guess flashed through my mind, and the voice of the secret guard came, "Prince Jingyang has a rash on his face."
Shen Sui's brows were twisted into knots.
