It was a face that would be handsome if it was not injured, but on the half of the face that had been covered by the mask, a hideous long scar extended from the corner of the eye to the root of the ear, which made people feel a sense of regret.

"When I was young, I was robbed by gangsters, and I left this scar, so I never dared to show this ugly appearance."

Emperor Yan was stunned for a moment, not because of the terrifying scar like a centipede on Bai Xiying's face, but because—first, the last time he saw Wan Qizhi was ten years ago, when he was still a teenager, and his appearance inevitably changed when he became an adult, even if he was indeed too similar to Wan Qiyu; Second, the scar is really unsightly and affects judgment.

If it is determined that Bai Xiying is the remnant of the Northern Qi Dynasty because of his similar appearance, it is not easy to explain it to the South Vietnamese side. But if the white shadow is really a thousand things, let it go like this, wouldn't it leave trouble for itself.

As if he could probe people's minds, Cui Yin stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the sons of the He family, I don't know if they are in the Great Thorn City?" ”

This reminded Emperor Yan, "Zhao Jing, is the second son of the He family still in Thorn City?" ”

Zhao Jing hesitated for a moment and said, "It's about here." ”

"Let him come into the palace."

White Shadow puts the mask back on. This He family, he knows.

In addition to the portraits of the royal nobles of the Dayan family, the He family also has a task of painting portraits of important people from various countries. Therefore, the He family is also an intelligence organization cultivated by the Great Yan Imperial Family.

The He family is spread all over Shikoku, with extraordinary skills and a never-to-forget ability. What the He family refers to is not the He family, but everyone in the He family building.

There are not many portraits of the real sons of the He family, most of them are the descendants of the royal families of various countries. The current Emperor of Northern Qi only had a pair of children, all of whom were descendants. Unfortunately, Wan Qizhi is one of them.

And the second son of He sent by Emperor Yan was probably the one who painted the portrait of Wan Qian back then. The son of the He family often walks around the rivers and lakes, and his skills are excellent, and he is proficient in recognizing people's faces. Naturally, it was no problem to recognize the human skin mask, not to mention the false scars that the White Shadow had fooled up with the crude disguise technique.

Bai Xiying's face did not change, but he just stood there quietly.

According to the hour, he was about to arrive.

Before the chamberlain could make a report, Si Le strode in, "The old minister sees Your Majesty." ”

"Why are you here today?" Emperor Yan's face changed slightly.

"The person sent by His Majesty can come back," Si Le said straight to the point, "Your Majesty doesn't need to let people identify whether this person is the prince of Northern Qi back then." ”

Everyone looked at Se Le in unison.

Although Si Le is old, his voice is still sonorous and powerful, "Because back then, it was the old minister who gave the bones of the ten thousand corpses!" ”

An Yuan and Cui Yin's eyes were puzzled and shocked, Emperor Yan frowned slightly, and Bai Xiying glanced at Si Le without any more expression.

I heard Si Le continue: "In the harsh winter month, several arrows pierce the heart. I found the person the day after he died, and the body was frozen. ”

Cui Yin asked, "Is it possible that the adult recognized the wrong person?" ”

"It is impossible for the old minister to admit his mistake," Si Le stared at him fiercely, and then looked at Emperor Yan, "Your Majesty knows this." It is impossible for the old minister to admit his mistake, and there is no reason to admit his mistake. ”

Emperor Yan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded a little tiredly.

In the main hall, only Cui Yin and An Yuan looked at each other, full of doubts. They didn't know why Si Le came forward, why he recognized the prince of Northern Qi, and why he personally collected the bones for the prince of Northern Qi.

And these, the other three all understand. Especially Si Le and Bai Xiying, it is very clear.

The hall was quiet for a long time, and the air was so oppressive that it was a little difficult to breathe.

At this time, the inner servant came to report, "Your Majesty, the prince of King Ning is asking to see you outside." ”

Only then did Emperor Yan remember that a few days ago, Bai Hao, the prince of King Ning, had written a letter, "Xuan." "How did I just catch up with this time?

What came in was a handsome young man in a snow-blue embroidered brocade robe and a purple jade ring.

Bai Xiying was a little surprised to see that Bai Wu gave Emperor Yan an envoy gift, and ordered someone to send the best jade unique to South Vietnam, and said in a rhetorical way that Emperor Yan finally had some smiles on his face.

Bai Wu said: "My unserious brother had a conflict with his father two years ago, and he ran out alone, and he has been ...... in your country these days" Saying that, Bai Wu suddenly walked over and hugged Bai Xiying's shoulder too intimately, "My brother must have caused a lot of trouble to Your Majesty." ”

At this time, Ann and Cui looked at Bai Xiying in shock.

Seeing Bai Wu step forward and salute again, "Bai Wu is here, thank Your Majesty for my father." ”

Emperor Yan smiled: "The prince is polite. ”

Bai Xiying had no choice but to salute and say: "I have been bothering here for a long time, thanks to Your Majesty's care, Bai Hao is grateful." ”

That night, Emperor Yan set up a small banquet to entertain the two Bai Wu brothers.

It's just that Bai Xiying still hasn't figured out why Bai Wu appeared.

Si Le's arrival was because he had mentioned Kun Wu to him in advance, and when Bai Xiying went to Qi Ming Palace, Si Le was also present.

So Si Le rushed to the scene, and it was not surprising that Bai Xiying was in a hurry.

But this Bai Wu ......

Bai Xiying looked at Bai Wu, who was raising his glass and talking happily with Emperor Yan, and fell into deep thought.
