Qinghe explained, "Your Highness, you may not know that while Qingliang Valley is easy to find, getting to the palace is not easy. We can go around Nanhezhou and get directly to the palace without alerting the guards in the valley. After all, the host is not home right now, so it's best not to make a public announcement about our sudden visit."
After Ouyang Ming thought for a moment, he nodded slightly and did not raise any more questions.
Seeing his confused look, Qinghe couldn't help but laugh out loud: "You, really? Wang Yanzhou is your sworn brother. And yet you even forgot how to get to your brother's house."
Faced with Qinghe's teasing, Ouyang Ming felt a sense of displeasure for no reason. However, seeing her laughing so happily, he didn't mind. "Princess, please stop laughing at me."
As usual, Qinghe lay on Ouyang Ming's lap, playing with the sandalwood fan in her hand. "I'm not laughing at you, I'm not laughing at you. I got a treasure a few days ago. If the heavens have pity on my lovesickness, they should be able to cure your stubborn illness."
Ouyang Ming gently stroked Qinghe's black hair, but when he saw the occasional white hair, he stopped his gentle movements and said, "Qinghe, you really don't have to go to such lengths for me."
Qinghe looked up at her, his expression as if truly saying, as long as it can save you, even at the cost of his own life, he would do so. "It's necessary. You are my husband, and I will never allow you to forget me. Let's not talk about this anymore. The caravan has stopped to rest. Lianqiao is keeping all my treasures, and I guess they should be in the tent now."
With the help of several guards, Ouyang Ming was transferred from the carriage to a wheelchair. During the process, one of the guards accidentally bumped into his legs. After repeatedly apologizing, Ouyang Ming said calmly, "It happened, I didn't feel anything anyway." It didn't seem like he was acting.
After arriving at the tent, Lian Qiao was cleaning the dust from the screen. Seeing Qinghe coming, she quickly packed up her things, lowered her head and presented a brocade box to Ouyang Ming.
When Ouyang Ming saw the Qilin pattern on the brocade box, his eyes suddenly became fiery: "What is this?"
Qinghe smiled and urged, "Hurry up and open it. The treasure inside is the Ouyang family's treasure."
Ouyang Ming suppressed his nervous excitement and slowly opened the brocade box to see what the legendary black pearl looked like. However, what caught his eyes was a face that he was very familiar with.
"...Why is it a mirror?"
Qinghe explained, "A bronze mirror can be used to straighten one's attire. Aren't you, a beast in human form, exactly in need of a mirror to see your true form? Besides, the owner of this mask is truly a treasure of the Ouyang family, and even more so, a treasure of mine, Qinghe."
Ouyang Ming slowly closed the brocade box and swallowed subconsciously, "Qinghe, what are you talking about? I'm confused."
"Forsythia."
Lian Qiao stepped forward and said, "Here."
Qinghe took off the dagger from his waist and handed it to Lianqiao, then turned around and said, "Dig out the birthmark on his chest for me."
"yes."
Looking at the huge screen in the tent, Qinghe seemed angry and indifferent: "I don't know who is behind you, and I'm not in the mood to find out now. You don't have to say anything. You won't say anything anyway. I'm disgusted by people like you."
Ouyang Ming saw that Lian Qiao didn't seem to be joking with him by holding the knife, so he frantically patted the wheelchair, "Princess, are you really so heartless?"
Qing He turned around and glanced at him before saying coldly, "Heartless? Ha, I gave all my love to Ou Yangming. You call me heartless? It's you who did it."
Upon hearing this, "Ouyang Ming" stopped struggling and turned to question Qinghe, "Ouyang Ming, what's so good about him? He's just a charlatan who cheats people out of food and drink. Why did you fall for him?"
Qinghe's lips curled up slightly. Ouyang Ming was a jerk, but as far as she knew, there was only one person who could ask such a question. "He's a jerk, but he's genuine. He wouldn't act like a beast while wearing a human skin."
Ouyang Ming threw his head back and let out a long laugh, then frantically tore off the mask. Beneath that handsome mask lay a face already festered with sores and pus, nearly disfigured. From the features, one could still vaguely see how handsome this face must have been before it was disfigured.
Zhou Sheng threw the mask in his hand to the ground and tried to stand up from the wheelchair, but he lost his balance and fell to the ground. "For you, I even gave up my dignity. For you, I broke the nearest leg with a stone, and in the end, you still won't look me in the face!"
Without waiting for Qinghe to speak, Tang Chen, who had been hiding behind the screen, jumped out despite Wang Yanzhou's attempts to pull him away. He even said, "Your face might scare the children. Do you really think Qinghe is attracted to Ouyang Ming's face? If so, I can only say that you don't really like him."
Seeing the many people who appeared out of nowhere, the disgusted look in the strange woman's eyes, and the malicious slander coming out of her mouth, Zhou Sheng, who had been crying and wailing, suddenly froze: "......!"
Tang Chen thought his sudden appearance had frightened his fragile heart, and hurriedly said, "Well, although it's a bit abrupt to talk to me all of a sudden, let me introduce myself."
As he spoke, Tang Chen actually introduced them one by one: "His name is Wang Yanzhou, and my name is Tang Chen. I'm half-student of Ouyang Ming, half-brother of Princess Qinghe, and also the girlfriend of Valley Master Wang."
After saying that, Tang Chen looked at Liang Shuyi and Shen Xin, and pointed casually: "The remaining two are my younger brothers, and they are not important characters."
Liang Shuyi, upon hearing her words, for once, refrained from striking her. She and Shen Xin had special identities, and if word got out that they were here, it might be accused of forming a clique for personal gain.
Zhou Sheng lay on the ground, looking up at these people, and suddenly felt that his life was a joke, and it was these people who caused all this! He really liked Qinghe, was there anything wrong with that? He just wanted to drive away the flies around her, was there anything wrong with that!
For her, he no longer cared about anything: looks, legs, family, honor. In the end, was this her response to him: "...Hehahahaha!"
Qinghe closed his eyes, trying to suppress his inner anger and said, "What are you laughing at?"
Zhou Sheng's eyes were red as he said viciously, "I'm laughing. Even though I can't get the Black Pearl, you'll never see Ouyang Ming again in this lifetime!"
Before Zhou Sheng could finish, Qing He raised his knife and cut his throat with one stroke, giving him a quick death: "Do you know why I hate you? You talk too much."
“……!”
