Chapter 124 The Regent lied

The symbols on the white mask are a very special pattern.

The pattern is very simple, like a burning firework.

There is a curve in the middle of the fireworks that looks like an eye, which is very scary.

A fiery red firework symbol is painted on one side of the white mask, like a blazing fire.

When Liu Yunzhou saw the flame symbol, he felt like he had been slapped on the head.

There was a bang like an explosion in the head, and everything went blank.

In this blank space, there was a faint reminder of that torrential rainy night in the previous life.

That day, she was set up by Qu Chaoyan and Pei Yunhe and kidnapped by a group of bandits.

Halfway through the journey, heavy rain poured down, landslides occurred, and the road ahead was blocked.

She was injured, caught cold, and had a high fever. She was dragged roughly and stumbled forward.

Later, the bandit leader dragged her to a cave to shelter from the rain and defiled her.

She was already delirious at that time and could not remember the details.

The only thing she remembered was that the bandit who defiled her also had a fire symbol on him.

That flame symbol is the symbol on the mask.

She remembers.

Remember clearly!

The flame patterns on the bandit's body are exactly the same as those on these masks.

This flame pattern aroused the fear deep in her heart. Uncontrollably, Liu Yunzhou felt cold all over, her face was as white as snow, and her lips were purple.

She was shaky, almost unable to stand.

Pei Qingyan heard all the voices in Liu Yunzhou's heart.

He heard her say that the bandit who defiled her had the same pattern as the flame talisman.

How is this possible?

This flame pattern is his special family pattern, and only the closest secret guards around him are qualified to use it. How could it appear on the bandits?

Pei Qingyan was puzzled.

The voices in Liu Yunzhou's heart were so messy, sad and angry that he couldn't figure it out for a while.

Pei Qingyan saw Liu Yunzhou about to fall and held her up, "What's wrong?"

"I...it's okay." Hearing Pei Qingyan's voice, Liu Yunzhou came back from the terrifying memory.

"I..." She bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Your Majesty, I have a question I want to ask you, and I hope you can answer me."

Pei Qingyan knew what Liu Yunzhou wanted to ask.

But he still pretended not to know, "Just tell me."

"I would like to ask what the patterns on their masks mean?" Liu Yunzhou said, "Does this pattern have a special meaning?"

"No." Pei Qingyan's eyes flickered slightly.

"No?"

"Well, it has no special meaning." Pei Qingyan said.

After a pause, he explained, "There are many types of guards under my command. Generally speaking, they are divided into open guards and hidden guards."

"The clear guards are the guards you can see in the palace. I usually like to be quiet, and there are not many clear guards. Therefore, the most common ones in the palace are the secret guards. The secret guards are just a general term, specifically those who hide in the dark. guard."

"Among them, there are many types of secret guards."

"One type is people like Lu Chengfeng who can show their true colors to others. They usually don't show up, but they will show up in front of people when necessary. If they are clearly distinguished, they belong to the imperial guards."

"There is another kind of shadow guard, who follows them everywhere like a shadow. They never show their true colors and never appear in front of others. They generally do not take action easily. They only perform specific tasks at certain specific times. You can't feel it on weekdays. their presence.”

"The ones between the imperial guards and the shadow guards are also called hidden guards, which are the four people I sent to you. They are hidden in the world. They dress the same as ordinary people. On weekdays, they have their own identities and hide in various places. Wear a mask to verify your identity only when performing tasks."

"The masks they wear have to be changed every other month. This month it happens to be the flame symbol, and next month it may be replaced by the auspicious cloud symbol. It has no special meaning." Pei Qingyan lied without changing his face or heartbeat.

It was the first time Liu Yunzhou heard Pei Qingyan say so many words.

She didn't quite understand why Pei Qingyan suddenly popularized the types of guards under his command.

but.

After hearing Pei Qingyan's explanation, she felt much better.

Flame patterns are not uncommon, maybe it's a coincidence.

She also remembered that in her previous life, the regent led his troops to annihilate the vicious group of bandits, and it was the regent and his group who rescued her from the bandits.

The patterns she saw and the patterns on the mask just happened to collide.

Liu Yunzhou took a deep breath and calmed down.

"That's it. Thank you, Your Majesty, for informing me."

Pei Qingyan lowered his eyelids slightly when he saw Liu Yunzhou's mood calmed down.

The matter of family crests has been kept secret for the time being.

But this is not a long-term solution.

Sooner or later Liu Yunzhou will know that the flame pattern is his family crest.

He needs to quickly investigate the bandits who kidnapped Liu Yunzhou in his previous life and eliminate them as soon as possible.

Pei Qingyan was deep in thought, but it didn't show on his face.

"From today on, you will protect Miss Liu. Miss Liu's orders are equivalent to my orders." Pei Qingyan said to the four hidden guards.

"Yes." The four hidden guards said in unison.

"Since Miss Liu doesn't like this mask, you can take it off," Pei Qingyan said.

The four hidden guards looked at each other.

In their hearts, the regent was a cold immortal who was unsmiling and could not tell lies.

The regent just lied to Liu Yunzhou that the flame pattern was meaningless, but he actually asked them to take off the mask?

The four hidden guards hesitated.

"Anyway, you all have to introduce yourselves and take them off together." Pei Qingyan ordered.

"Yes." The four hidden guards no longer hesitated and took off their masks one after another.

"Subordinate Jiang Feng." The first hidden guard on the right held one hand in front and the other behind, making a special salute to Liu Yunzhou.

Liu Yunzhou vaguely felt that the name Jiang Feng was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.

She looked up.

Jiang Feng is a very typical swordsman, with peak-like features, bold and resolute, tall figure, and looks very handsome.

"I'm Lu Zhou." The second hidden guard also made a special salute.

Lu Zhou was different from Jiang Feng in that he was gentle and gentle, with a pale complexion. Although he was tall, he was very thin and had the appearance of a sickly scholar. He did not look like a hidden guard at all.

Liu Yunzhou frowned.

Weird.

Even if the name Jiang Feng was familiar to her, the name Lu Zhou was also familiar to her.

Unfortunately, she couldn't remember where she had heard it.

"See you in Bai Chun." The third hidden guard took off his mask, revealing a bright female face. This face was like the spring sunshine, fresh and refined, with an proud temperament.

"Jiang Xuedi." The fourth hidden guard's voice was colder.

After she took off her mask, she revealed a snow-white face.

That face was so pale that it looked like the white snow on the top of a distant mountain, crystal clear.

Her hair is also silver-white, which makes her look like a fairy in the snow.

"See Miss Liu." After the four hidden guards introduced themselves, they all saluted Liu Yunzhou.

When Liu Yunzhou saw Jiang Xuedi's snowy hair and skin, long-lost memories came to mind.

She remembered.

She remembered all the identities of these four people!
