When he came out of the Zhaixing Tower, Jing Rui still looked annoyed.

He thought he had given his whole heart to Qu Xinyue, and had done everything he could to be good to her.

But after listening to Qu Xinyue talk about how she escaped, he suddenly realized that he had not done enough.

After he brought Qu Xinyue to Hanjiang, it was Qu Xinyue who had been making sacrifices, while he was always thinking about Hanjiang's affairs and didn't even ask about Qu Xinyue's past.

I never thought that Yueyue had been bullied like this in the past, locked in a dog cage, fed rotten food, and whipped...

Jing Rui raised his head and looked at the dark sky. Suddenly, he felt that his heart was blocked and he couldn't breathe. His eyes were slightly moist, "Pa——"

He slapped himself hard. Not only was he angry with himself, but he also hated Dayan in his heart.

……

General Weiyuan was stopped outside Fuqiu Courtyard for three consecutive days, and his temper gradually became worse.

He ignored the obstruction and forced his way in, coming in front of Jing Rui who had just come out of court. He looked at Jing Rui with suspicion and questioned him harshly.

"You have been stopping me from seeing the Sixth Princess. Has the Sixth Princess been killed by you?"

I have to say, the truth about General Weiyuan has been revealed.

But how could Jing Rui admit it?

Jing Rui looked at General Weiyuan in astonishment, with an expression that said, "Why are you so unreasonable and so naughty?"

Then he sighed and continued.

"In fact, General Weiyuan couldn't see the Sixth Princess. It wasn't because I asked someone to stop the general. It was because the Sixth Princess didn't want to see him."

General Weiyuan's eyes widened as he loudly retorted, "How is that possible! How could the Sixth Princess not want to see me?"

Jing Rui looked regretful: "Because Princess Liu's face was disfigured by the fire, I don't want people to see her miserable side now, and her personality has changed a lot..."

He hesitated to speak, looked at General Weiyuan and suggested: "If General Weiyuan sees the Sixth Princess and she behaves a little strangely, I hope General Weiyuan will forgive her."

General Weiyuan originally came here with anger, but after being brainwashed by Jing Rui, not only did his anger disappear, but he also went back with a lot of worries.

The elite who secretly monitored General Weiyuan came back to report: "Your Majesty is wise. General Weiyuan has indeed returned and is no longer clamoring to see the Sixth Princess immediately."

Jing Rui nodded and asked, "Have you invited back the person who can disguise himself?"

Legend has it that there is a ghost with a thousand faces who is very good at disguise.

He used to hide in a theatre troupe and put makeup on people, but as his fame grew, it is now difficult to find the whereabouts of the Thousand Faces Ghost Hand.

When he told Qu Xinyue about the Sixth Princess and decided to return to Dayan together, his first thought was this Thousand-Faced Ghost Hand.

If they had the help of the Thousand-Faced Ghost Hand, Dayan and his group would have a 70% chance of success.

Before, Qu Xinyue told a fortune and gave an address.

He gave the address to the elites and asked them to look for the person, but it is unknown whether they found the person.

"Your Majesty, we have already found the Thousand-Faced Ghost Hand last night, and we are on our way back now."

Jing Rui's frown relaxed slightly.

……

Unexpectedly, the Thousand-Faced Ghost Hand brought back by the elite was a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old.

The little girl was wearing gray clothes, holding a package and shivering.

Jing Rui seriously doubted whether the rumor was wrong. How could a man of this age be the Thousand-Faced Ghost Hand as rumored?

Qu Xinyue waved to the little girl.

The little girl looked at Jing Rui carefully. For some reason, even though this man was not mean to her, she was still afraid in her heart.

Seeing a beautiful sister waving at her, she felt relieved and quickly hugged the package and trotted to Qu Xinyue, looking somewhat dependent.

Jing Rui felt inexplicably uncomfortable when he saw the little girl standing next to Qu Xinyue.

Qu Xinyue glanced at Jing Rui and reminded him not to scare others.

She smiled and asked the little girl: "What's your name?"

"Nanzhi." Nanzhi answered crisply, looking at Qu Xinyue with her round, sparkling eyes. She liked this beautiful sister.

"Thousand-Faced Ghost Hand is Nanzhi's grandmother, but she has passed away... But she said that Nanzhi's ability has surpassed hers. Sister, what do you want to dress up as?"

Nanzhi looked a little sad when she mentioned her grandmother, with whom she depended on for everything.

But what surprised Qu Xinyue was that Nanzhi was not on guard against her at all and told her all about his situation.

Seeing Qu Xinyue's confusion, Nanzhi explained embarrassedly: "I heard that you are the Heavenly Master, and you have saved many people in Hanjiang. Nanzhi thinks you are a good person."

Qu Xinyue looked at Nanzhi's sincere eyes and curled her lips slightly.

Unfortunately, the legendary Thousand-Faced Ghost Hand has passed away, and he has become more soft on Nanzhi.

She took out a portrait of the Sixth Princess and asked, "Can Nanzhi draw a picture of this person after the fire disfigured her?"

Nanzhi carefully observed the portrait for a while, thought about it seriously, and nodded affirmatively: "Okay."

She opened her package, and everyone saw that it contained a lot of bottles, jars and some tools.

Nanzhi explained while skillfully mixing the cream and powder.

"The makeup is waterproof after it's applied. If you want to remove it, you can only use the potion that Nanzhi mixes herself. One makeup can last for ten days, and you have to do another one after ten days."

As she spoke, she applied the prepared paste on Qu Xinyue's face, her technique was gentle but decisive and neat.

After a stick of incense, Qu Xinyue saw her completely changed face in the mirror and exclaimed in admiration.

If she goes out now, anyone who is familiar with the Sixth Princess would probably recognize her immediately as the Sixth Princess whose face was disfigured by fire.

On the seventh day after arriving in Hanjiang, General Weiyuan finally met the Sixth Princess.

The Sixth Princess was wearing a cloak, and the wide brim of her hat almost covered her entire face.

From a distance, all you can see is a delicate chin.

"Sixth Princess!" General Weiyuan strode up to the Sixth Princess with a distressed look on his face. Looking at the silent Sixth Princess, he felt distressed.

But when the Sixth Princess raised her head slightly, he saw a palm-sized burn scar on her familiar face, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

"Sixth Princess, you have suffered."

Qu Xinyue had already taken pills that made her voice slightly hoarse.

When he opened his mouth at this moment, General Weiyuan thought that his throat was damaged by the fire.

"General, I miss my father and mother."

Twenty days later, Qu Xinyue, dressed as the sixth princess, sat in a large carriage and returned to Dayan again.

When the people on the roadside saw that it was the princess's guard of honor, they consciously retreated to the sides of the road and bowed slightly to let the princess's guard of honor pass.

When the guard of honor slowly passed by Qu's mansion, she lifted the curtain with her hand and looked in the direction of Qu's mansion.

At this time, a carriage had just stopped in front of Qu's mansion, and the servant knelt on the ground as usual.

A middle-aged man with a long face, long beard, tall stature and wearing a blue robe came out of the carriage, stepped on the back of the servant and got off the carriage, and walked towards Qu's mansion.

As if he had sensed something, he suddenly stopped and turned back before entering the mansion.

Qu Xinyue looked at Master Qu from afar, a sneer appeared on the corner of her lips, and she murmured, "Long time no see."
