Tang Chen covered his mouth, unable to believe what he saw: "Oh my God, how could this happen!"
The other Qilin Guards were also in an uproar, and they all started talking: "Wow, what's going on with Qiu Liang's face!"
Tang Chen swallowed subconsciously, then walked over and looked at Qiu Liang's face and said, "Oh my goodness, Qiu Liang, you, you look, uh, just like everyone else. You're completely different from what I imagined."
Qiu Liang quickly picked up the mask from the ground and put it back on, then bowed and said, "Thank you, Madam, for the compliment. I know the birthmark on my face is a little scary, and I'm really sorry."
Feng Lai shook his head frantically and said, "Why? This wasn't what I saw that day!"
Qiu Liang replied with some embarrassment: "Princess, in fact, Qiu Liang has never dared to show his true face because of his low self-esteem. I think the person the princess saw before was not me."
Princess Fenglai seemed to be a little disturbed by Qiu Liang's true appearance, and her body trembled uncontrollably: "...But you saved me, at least let me do something to repay you."
Seeing this, Tang Chen couldn't find any other words to describe his current mood except "fuck". He had been pressing forward, but now seeing Qiu Liang's true appearance, which looked just like an ordinary person, and even a bit weird and ugly because of the birthmark that almost took up half of his face, his enthusiasm seemed to be extinguished in an instant.
As expected, Feng Lai is to some extent the same type of person as them, also obsessed with looks, but her symptoms seem to be much more severe than those of ordinary girls.
As a trained Qilin Guard, Qiu Liang spoke in a very official manner: "The princess is willing to help Qingliang Valley for the sake of justice. She is our benefactor."
Upon seeing this, Wang Yanzhou quickly picked up his teacup and said loudly, "Yes, Princess Fenglai was the one who lent a helping hand to Qingliang Valley in times of crisis. Everyone, let's use tea instead of wine to toast the princess. Princess Fenglai, live a thousand years, a thousand thousand years!"
"Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor!" Everyone shouted long live the emperor, and Feng Lai's heart couldn't help but calm down a little. He just let the loss of face be lost today.
Feng Lai ate with everyone for a while, and after exchanging a few pleasantries, he could no longer sit still, so he said, "Madam, I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well, so I'll go back first. If I've spoiled your mood, I'd like to apologize here in advance."
Tang Chen said, "Princess, you are so polite. Xixin, hurry up and help the princess go back to rest. If she doesn't get better, please send someone to tell me as soon as possible so that I can call a doctor to treat her and avoid any more trouble."
"Yes, Xixin understands."
After Feng Lai walked away, the Qilin Guards, who had been suppressing their restlessness, gathered around him. While looking at Qiu Liang's face, they asked in a flurry, "Qiu Liang, what happened to your face? Is it really disfigured?"
Many of the Qilin Guards were curious and started touching it. "Yeah, yeah, what's with that redness? Did you get burned by the hot water? It looks pretty serious, it's red like this. Does it hurt if I touch you like this?"
Qiu Liang was a little unaccustomed to having his face touched. After he pushed those dirty hands away from him, someone said, "No, I think this should be a human skin mask. It really doesn't look like your face at all. Who helped you make this? Ask that expert to teach me when you have time!"
Tang Chen, who was listening to their discussion from the back, couldn't help but shook his head and uttered a very contemptuous sound: "Tsk tsk tsk."
Tang Chen's sudden appearance instantly scared away the Qilin Guards surrounding Qiu Liang. There was no other way. Wang Yanzhou had previously instructed that it was best not to have too much physical contact with Tang Chen unless necessary.
"lady!"
If he hadn't just heard them say that, Tang Chen would have been just as foolish as Feng Lai. So, he had prepared this face all along just to show Feng Lai. The effect was truly immediate for someone obsessed with looks. "We're all family, isn't it a bit too much to treat a little girl like this? I was wondering why you inexplicably asked me for rouge and powder earlier. Wow, it turns out you were using it for disguise! And, your makeup is so much of a disguise! Lend me your makeup artist!"
Qiu Liang replied helplessly: "What I did today is really helpless. As for my helpers, if you need them, you can go to the Shadow Master."
Everyone suddenly realized and said, "So that's how it is!"
After that, a large group of people pulled back Wang Nianqing who was about to escape. A group of big men asked another big man to teach them the legendary art of makeup and disguise.
Tang Chen was also very surprised. Wang Nianqing was sometimes so reserved and sultry, but he didn't expect that she was actually a master with special skills. "Oh my god, Wang Nianqing has such skills. I must learn a thing or two from her someday. But then again, how did you know she would confess to you in public today?"
Qiu Liang replied in full, "It was the princess's maid named Xixin who told me."
Wang Yanzhou frowned slightly. If that was what Xixin said, could it be that the King of Shu was thinking of sending Feng Lai back? But he didn't say that he wanted to recall the elite soldiers previously loaned to Qingliang Valley. "Xixin? That's a bit unexpected."
Qiu Liang was also confused and said, "She just said that she didn't want to see Feng Lai persist in her wrongdoings. She also told me that as a princess of Shu, there are other places more suitable for her. This is not the place where she can act recklessly."
Wang Yanzhou couldn't help but nod and said, "Xixin is a thoughtful girl. No wonder when the King of Shu sent someone to deliver something to Fenglai, he specifically asked Xixin to handle it."
Tang Chen, who was standing by, became a little upset when she heard them praising Xixin like this. The girl called Xixin should be the one who came with Fenglai today. She was quite impressed by the other Yingchun. This girl was not bad looking and had a delicate mind. She was a good choice.
"...Qiuliang, what do you think of this girl Xixin?"
The smile on Qiu Liang's face froze instantly, and he said, "Madam, I respect Sister Lian Xin, and I don't have much interaction with Miss Xi Xin. Are you so anxious to find a home for me?"
Tang Chen said somewhat awkwardly: "Well, it's not really a big deal."
Qiu Liang immediately raised his eyebrows and suggested loudly: "Then please ask Madam to help the Shadow Master keep an eye on it first. We, as subordinates, dare not rush in before the Shadow Master."
Upon hearing this, the Qilin Guards surrounding Wang Nianqing suddenly started making a fuss again: "Qiu Liang is right, Shadow Master, when will you bring us a sister-in-law? Hahaha!"
After everyone made a fuss for a while, no one knew who brought the fireworks. After three cups of tea, in the dark night sky, fleeting bright fireworks exploded one after another, turning the sky red.
