Chapter 458: A Lonely Shadow Under the Mask

In Yulin's delicate fantasy, the lone shadow under the black mask should be a handsome and beautiful young man. He has followed the ninth brother for so many years, doesn't the ninth brother also wear a mask but his appearance is still beautiful? So she always thought that the secret guard of the ninth brother should also be the same.

At this moment, hearing Duying talk about "ugly face", Yulin Piaorou was really startled.

Duying saw that a different color appeared on her face for a moment, and for some reason, there was a burning feeling of anticipation being immediately extinguished.

At first, His Royal Highness never disliked the ugly Miss Ru Huan, and Duying was stained with His Highness's single-mindedness, so he was not a superficial man who paid attention to his appearance.

It's just that the natural rejection of the eldest princess under the pretentiousness of the eldest princess made him never really look at Yulin Piaorou and others, but her thoughtfulness made Duying face her heart to some extent.

So Duying wanted to tell the truth, he wanted to see what the princess's so-called liking was like.

Seeing Yulin Piaorou's eyes widening in shock, I don't know whether it was sad because of the sadness of the death of her first love, or out of a trace of anger in the dark, Duying did not hesitate to remove the mask on her face.

Seeing this, Yulin Reorou's first reaction was to stretch out his hands and cover his mouth that was almost screaming.

What kind of face is this?

The faint moonlight has a soft temperature, but when it touches the skin of the lone shadow's cheeks, it suddenly becomes dark and cold!

That face, if you explore it carefully, the past moment should be considered a dignified appearance, but at this time, the deep outline of thick eyebrows and big eyes is intertwined with countless scars. In this night, I suddenly saw that Yu Lin Piaorou held her mouth and didn't scream, which was already an excellent performance.

After staring at it for a few seconds, Yulin Piaorou hurriedly closed her eyes.

Seeing her expression, Duying just smiled self-deprecatingly: "Since the princess has seen Duying's true face, then the princess can continue to look for suitable candidates for the colt in the future." Lonely Shadow is ......"

But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yulin Piaorou's roar: "Do I, Yulin Rejoice, care about the superficial people who look good?" When she finished speaking, she opened her eyes with anger on her face, as she had closed her eyes just now to make up her mind, not to look out of fear.

Duying was stunned by this sound, and after taking off the mask, he could clearly see his expression, which was obvious doubt and surprise, as well as a kind of extreme confusion and incomprehension: "Your Royal Highness, Princess...... Look closely...... After being captured by the enemy, in order to force a confession, they slashed more than a dozen knives in the face of the lone shadow, and the knife was bloody, and the knife went to the bone......"

The more the lone shadow said terrible, the more determined Yulin Piaorou became. Although the scarred face in front of her eyes was indeed shocking, she did not feel ugly, but made her feel that the face under the scars was pitiful.

This mood made the princess's eyes hidden behind the fat also shine with a touching starlight: "It's pitiful, Rejoice will protect you in the future." ”

Listening to her categorically, Duying's head was a little dazed, he blinked his eyes and looked at Yulin Piaorou for a long time, and finally turned around and left with that incomprehensible expression, but in his heart, it seemed that there was an indescribable seed buried in the soil, if he watered it again, maybe there would always be a day when it would take root and sprout!

Ru Huan didn't fall asleep from the grief of losing Zhiqiu until the sky turned white, but not long after she slept, the sound of horses neighing came from outside the tent.

Rubbing his heavy eyelids, Ru Huan vaguely heard a general scolding the soldiers in a low voice: "Didn't the Lady of Tranquility issue a strict order prohibiting making noise in front of Miss Ru Huan's tent?" disturbed the young lady's dream, but it was a crime of killing the head. ”

The soldier hurriedly jumped off his horse and reported: "Someone from the other side has brought ...... Sent the body of a girl, saying that it was Miss Ru Huan's maid......"

Hearing this, Ru Huan jumped up from the bed, she hurriedly put on her coat, and rushed out of the camp in three steps and two steps.

"Wind Jedi returned Zhiqiu's body to me? Where is it? ”

The soldiers outside the camp tent couldn't help but be surprised when they saw Xie Ruhuan, who had always been calm and elegant, and the soldiers who passed the word didn't dare to slack off, and still ran to the commander's tent to tell Nan Remnantyin, and the general took Ruhuan to the riverside.

Ru Huan saw that Zhiqiu's little face had lost her vitality and turned pale, she tried her best to hold back her sadness, secretly wiped her tears, and thanked Liujin who was standing aside: "Thank you, Lord Liu!" I don't know what the conditions of the exchange are for the prince to let Lord Liu return the corpse? ”

Liujin fell to the ground with a sad face, and looked at the expression that was obviously very sorry for Zhiqiu's tragic death: "The prince of the holy realm is not virtuous, this girl obviously has a life-saving grace for him, but he actually can't bear to kill him with a sword, Liujin looks cold, so he tries his best to transport the body to Shurao." ”

Ru Huan asked with some surprise: "It's not that the wind and dust let Lord Liu return it, but Lord Liu stole the body and came here quietly?" ”

Liujin sighed and said: "Liujin was framed by his cousin Liu Lang, and he witnessed the prince being so unkind and unjust, alas, the heart of being an official has finally faded. Liukin knew that Miss Xie had a deep relationship with this girl, so she returned the girl. After that, Liukin planned to leave the Sanctuary court. ”

When he said this, Leng Xiuze, Nan Yanyin and others also came to the riverside. When Duying saw Zhiqiu's corpse, his eyes glowed with grief, and he suddenly raised his head, and when his gaze fell on the Sacred Land opposite, it was already full of hatred.

Leng Xiuze was very interested in this Liujin, and seeing that he didn't plan to be an official in the Holy Domain, he asked tentatively: "If Lord Liu doesn't dislike it, why don't you follow Xiuze?" ”

Liukin's eyes lit up when he heard him, and the fish bit the hook?

But his heart began to tangle.

Feng Jiechen heard from Ji Xuanran's mouth that Liu Jin had a good relationship with Ru Huan and others, so he wanted Ru Huan to owe Liu Jin a favor by returning Zhiqiu's corpse, and the ultimate goal was naturally to want Liu Jin to come to Leng Xiuze's side and become his eyeliner.

It's just that Liukin's heart is naturally unwilling, but his beloved wife was imprisoned by Feng Jiechen. On the one hand, he married a wife who was in deep love, and on the other hand, he had a friend who had only known him for a few hours, and Liukin had no choice but to accept the conditions of the wind and dust.

Seeing that Leng Xiuze did not doubt him, Liu Jin's face was hidden with a touch of shame, he lowered his face and sighed secretly, and finally nodded and agreed to this proposal.

Ru Huan remembered that Zhiqiu had said that her hometown was in a small village on the outskirts of the Imperial Capital of the Holy Domain. Although Zhiqiu lost her parents due to a plague and became an orphan since she was a child, she has always missed that quiet village, and the years she spent there with her parents were the happiest days of Zhiqiu's life.

When the red flames covered Zhiqiu's face, Ru Huan secretly made a vow that one day, she would bring Zhiqiu's ashes back to the imperial capital and bury them in Zhiqiu's hometown!
