The timing, direction, position, everything is calculated just right.

But the wine Yuan Cixian drank was real. She really drank a little too much, so she was able to act so realistically with the intention of being slightly drunk, and so it was a little bit difficult. Lu Shiqing's mask did not fall off completely, but was just a corner of it.

But she still maintained her minimum consciousness, and she was still in his arms, so she seized the opportunity to look up.

This time he looked up, he was shocked: the small half of his cheeks were wrinkled and densely stacked with light yellow color, uneven strips of mottled objects, like maggots, with white shavings falling on the edges.

With just one glance, Yuan Cixian screamed in shock, broke free from his arms, lost his head, and subconsciously staggered back.

Then she saw the man opposite slowly straightening the mask, as if nothing had happened, nodded to her and said, "I was in a hurry, please forgive Xu for offending. Has the county lord been injured?"

His voice was low and plain, but Yuan Cixian was stunned for a few moments before saying, "I'm fine."

"That's good. Has the county lord sobered up?"

This question really made Yuan Cixian a little embarrassed. Because of the hostility hidden in her heart, she felt that he was wearing a mask to hide his true face. She had never thought kindly that he might have a hidden secret. But now, he probably knew that she was pretending to be drunk, but she still left mercy.

She had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue acting, nodding: "I'm awake." After that, she lowered her eyelids and said, "I'm sorry, I..."

Lu Shiqing had never seen her look like she was defeated, but she didn't feel so happy in her heart, but instead became anxious inexplicably. He was silent for a while, but still showed no sign of it: "It's okay."

The word "nothing" with a calm and gentle clouds sounded in Yuan Cixian's ears and felt that he was hurt. She felt more and more guilty and waved her hand to explain: "Sir, I didn't mean it..."

She stopped halfway through her speech. It should be said that her temptation was intentional, but her scream was unintentional, not because she felt disgusted with his unusual face. She was just startled.

Lu Shiqing said lightly: "Xu knows."

She didn't have time to explain, what did he know? Yuan Cixian looked at him with a bitter face and said bluntly for a while: "Sir, what's going on with your face?"

"The county lord really wants to know?"

She nodded, her eyes nervous and sincere: "I have no intention of revealing your scars. I just recognize many talented people and talents in southern Yunnan. If you tell me, maybe I can help you."

Lu Shiqing seemed to smile, turned his back and said with his hands behind his back: "Three years ago, Xu came here to be his counselor at the invitation of His Highness, but unexpectedly he encountered an assassin on his way to Beijing. All the entourages sent by His Highness to escort me were sacrificed, and I was also seriously injured. Fortunately, I was treated by a mountain doctor and saved my life. However, the herbs used during the treatment of the injury left such traces on Xu's face, which could not be eradicated from now on."

Yuan Cixian frowned slightly: "The stubborn disease that cannot be cured by the mountain doctor may not be bad for others. Have you ever gone to other places to seek medical treatment?"

He shook his head: "The skin is meaningless, let alone the person who wants to kill Xu, now he has said that Xu is dead, and it may not be a blessing to restore his appearance. The county lord doesn't have to plan for me to run around."

She was silent for a while and said, "Sir, I admire you for being righteous. I apologize to you for losing my composure just now. I will not do this in the future." After that, he lowered his head.

Lu Shiqing achieved his goal, but he was really not used to her being so down-looking. He was wondering why she did this, but suddenly he heard her say, "Actually, I feel a little bit empathetic. I also have scars that cannot be erased on my body. I felt it was difficult to accept for a long time, and I felt relieved after a long time."

Lu Shiqing was slightly stunned and frowned.

He knew that Yuan Cixian was testing him recently and had received news of picking branches to the south, so he had already predicted the "Hongmen Banquet" tonight, and made sufficient preparations in advance, trying to scare her and ask her to give up the idea of ​​lifting his mask once and for all. However, he never expected that this would be the case.

This seemingly heartless girl revealed her shortcomings in order to comfort him.

If it were Xu Shan, he wouldn't have asked more questions now, but he was Lu Shiqing after all, so he said, "Scar?"

Yuan Cixian nodded as if nothing had happened and smiled: "Sir, I don't know, I'm a heroine who has been on the battlefield!"

No one praised his hero himself. When Lu Shiqing heard this, he wanted to laugh, but his heart was very upset.

He remembered what she told him the last time, and asked: "The wars in southern Yunnan are frequent and good, but they will not cause your daughter to charge forward. Why did the Lord ask you to go to the battlefield?"

She replied with a tight grace: "The year before yesterday, Nanzhao invaded, and there was a critical situation in the war. My father was besieged by the enemy's army in the mountains. Several deputy generals who were left behind were undecided. I was worried, and then..." She touched her nose, "and then led the army to rush over."

"..." What she said was that she was hungry and put a bowl of wontons to eat?

"But I didn't make any trouble, I rescued my dad." She said proudly.

OK OK OK OK OK I know you are a hero.

Lu Shiqing looked at her and felt mixed feelings. Everyone said that Lancang County Lord was in trouble, but he didn't know that one move back then was just a conspiracy between Nanzhao and the court. But the little girl who was scolded and committed a nonsense at that time was invisible to the point of being born and died for the Great Zhou.

At that time, she was only fourteen years old.

Before he could predict, he felt like a thorn in his throat. He suddenly regretted that this bad plan was made tonight, but he could only say what Xu Shan should say, and said lightly: "The county lord's passion makes Xu respect him, but he has no eyes on his sword. No matter how critical the situation is, you should cherish yourself."

Yuan Cixian smiled: "If Mr. Wang was in southern Yunnan and witnessed the tragic situation at that time, he would not stand by and watch."

After saying these words, her alcohol slowly rose to her head. When the wind blew, her head became more and more drowsy. She shook her whole body and couldn't help but press her sore temple.

Lu Shiqing moved his steps and almost wanted to help her. He reached halfway through his hand and felt something was wrong. He turned to bow and said, "The county lord rested early, Xu said goodbye."

Yuan Cixian was indeed unable to say polite words, so she asked someone to take him out of the house, and fell back on the edge of the bed when she returned to the room and sighed.

My brother was so unreliable that she drank more of these wines for nothing, and she was moved by the moment she was drunk and even said heart-to-heart words to Xu Shan.

That's Zheng Zhuo's person. What's wrong with her?

Lu Shiqing returned to Lu's mansion in silence, sat in the bedroom without saying a word until late at night, Cao An came forward to remind him: "Mr. Lang, don't you deal with your face?"

This face was made by him. When he applied the dirty things, the husband thought he didn't even dare to look at the bronze mirror. He had three layers of goose bumps all over his body. Now he was back home but he didn't rush to scrub it.

He was really afraid that there would be some flaws on Langjun's face. This might be harmless to others, but Yu Langjun was a fatal blow.

After all, flaws may be asymmetric.

When Lu Shiqing heard this, his soul returned to his position and jumped up: "Why didn't you say it earlier?" After that, he rushed straight to the clean room, "Prepare water!"

Cao secretly was really innocent. He was afraid that he would still have something to explain to others, so he kept waiting outside. He saw him bathing and packing up, and then asked, "Will the man go well tonight?"

Lu Shiqing regained her face, but her expression was faint, and she only said "um".

He made such sacrifices and disguise, so it should be smooth. Yuan Cixian was drunk and he was skeptical at first, but when she fell into his arms, he knew everything was fake.

The moment she raised her elbow, he made a plan and turned his head slightly. At that time, it was dark and he could only see things with the moonlight. Even if the mask fell off completely, she might not have seen the clues, let alone he only showed a small piece of his cheek.

But he was not very happy.

He asked: "Cao An, are you guilty when you lied to others?"

Cao An took back the words "Congratulations to the Lord" that was almost at his mouth and nodded and said seriously: "The emperor is above, the villain is loyal to the Lord, and there is no false statement!"

"..." Lu Shiqing walked around him, picked up a chair and stool to sit down, "played the piano against the cow."

Cao An scratched his head embarrassedly and heard him ask, "That maid named Zhuzhi really went to Xunyang?"

"Return to the Langjun, the county lord's maid is not a simple role. He avoids the saint's eyes and ears all the way, and even half of our people have been thrown away. He is still unable to determine whereabouts, but he only knows that he is heading south."

Lu Shiqing nodded: "It should be Xunyang. Since she is capable, there is no need to follow her, so ask them to retreat."

After saying that, he blinked slowly.

In fact, Yuan Cixian is indeed smart enough, but people have blind spots. He hid a face, so she naturally focused her attention behind his mask and ignored his hands.

The day she came to Lu Mansion to wrap him up with him, he was worried about this. Later, he visited the Yuan family twice and treated the scars carefully. Fortunately, she only suspected that "Xu Shan" had a false identity, but she never associated them together. Otherwise, she would have been around him all day long and sooner or later, and that by then it would not be covered by a mask and a wide robe.

Therefore, in unnecessary circumstances, Lu Shiqing still didn't want to get too close to her.

Thinking of this, he looked up and ordered: "Please pay attention to the garrison in the mansion these days and add more people."

Cao An asked in surprise: "Who are you going to guard against?"

He sighed: "That girl said she would hang in as a servant."

Which girl? Cao An was stunned and understood and hesitated: "Mr. Lang was the news he received from Yuan Mansion tonight? I'm afraid that's inappropriate. If you guard it strictly, wouldn't it make the county lord suspicious? "Mr. Xu told you the secret?"

Lu Shiqing choked. He was afraid he would be drunk without alcohol tonight, so he would not have thought through the following people.

He raised his hand and lit his front and said, "According to your wishes, I have to deliberately let her go to prove her innocence?"

Cao coughed secretly and whispered: "It's not impossible..."

"She thinks beautifully!"

That night, Cao An was bombarded by Lu Shiqing. He came to his study again at dusk the next day and knocked on the door: "Mr., here you are here!"

Lu Shiqing happened to be by the door, so he moved the door with his own hands and said to the outsider: "What's here?"

After he asked, he understood and frowned: "Why is this time?" He had just asked someone to prepare water and wanted to take a shower.

Cao secretly said that this was decided by the Lord of Lancang County. He didn't know where he asked, "Will you not let me go?"

"Don't let it go."

After Lu Shiqing finished speaking, he walked straight towards the clean room, but heard Cao An's voice coming from behind him again: "My husband is really not willing to let go?"

Is it over? He stopped and turned around and asked, "Do you want to let it go?"

Cao An lowered his head and said, "I dare not", and suddenly heard Lu Shiqing say "um": "You have followed me for many years, and you have worked hard without credit. You can't completely ignore your proposal. I don't want to let it go, but since you think it's necessary, let it go."

He didn't seem to say that either.

Seeing that the Langjun looked suspicious, Cao An hurriedly said, "Yes, the villain really suggested you like this. That... In order to prevent the county lord from exploring everywhere, he discovered something, the villain deliberately gave her a chance to give her tea, so why just put her in your study?"

It's good that this is the case. After all, she wants him. If she doesn't show her a clear way and asks her to rush around like a headless fly, she will touch the secret passage in the mansion, which may be even worse.

Lu Shiqing was very satisfied with his cleverness, nodded and signaled him to go, turned around and picked up the important documents in the study. After that, he was not here for a long time. When he was idle, he laid a piece of rice paper on the desk, picked a pen, drew a few orchids, and took a few strokes and looked towards the door.

Really, I can give you a tea too hard.

It was not until a picture of orchid was finished that the door was finally knocked. Lu Shiqing cleared his throat and asked lightly: "Who."

The outsider seemed to have cleared his throat, and then said in a thick voice: "Mr. Lang, the old lady, please send you tea."
