"Hehe, what are you up to, girl?”A man's voice was heard, and then a man in black floated down from the beam…
"Flute mark! You still know how to look for me? I thought you were dead!" Shangguan Xinyi glared at the black-clothed man not far away from her with a black panda eye. The person who came was none other than Xiao Hen, the great thief Xiao.
"Girl, who beat you up? Is it them?" The black-clothed man asked with a hint of doubt in his voice as he kicked the maidservant beside him with his left foot.
Shangguan Xinyi got up from the ground and asked,"When did you arrive? How did you know I was here?" She was afraid that Xiao Hen would come too early and hear something she shouldn't have heard.
"Just now, when I saw those two servant girls about to attack you, I don't need you to worry about how they found you. You haven't answered me yet. Were you beaten up by these two servant girls who don't know what's good for you?”Xiao Hen kicked the unconscious servant girl on the ground again. However, this time, he was much more ruthless than before. He estimated that when the servant girl woke up, she would find a large patch of purple on her body...
"Of course not. They…" Shangguan Xinyi was about to say that they didn't have the guts, but she found that she almost let it slip and hurriedly held back.
"Them? How are they?" The flute mark stepped over the two maidservants and walked to Shangguan Xinyi's side.
"They're all maids like me, why would they beat me up?”Shangguan Xinyi rolled her eyes at the masked man in black.
"Then who beat you up?" Xiao Hen did not seem to notice Shangguan Xinyi rolling her eyes at him. He reached out his right hand and pinched Shangguan Xinyi's delicate little face, carefully examining it.
Shangguan Xinyi knocked away Xiao Hen's right hand, and her eyes were a little evasive as if she had some scruples." Don't worry about it. I deserve to be beaten."”She was worried about the hand that Xiao Hen used to pinch her…
Xiao Hen saw Shangguan Xinyi's scruples and thought that she was afraid of the person who hit her. A trace of killing intent appeared in his eyes as he looked at the clear five finger prints on her fair face and the green panda eye on her right eye."Just tell me. I want to see who has the guts to hit my friend so hard!”
Shangguan Xinyi saw that his killing intent had risen, and she couldn't help but feel bad. If this Xiao Hen really killed the green-robed woman, then she would definitely be questioned by Xie Fengming. At that time, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to fool him. With her understanding, this Xiao Hen in front of her was definitely not an ordinary person. If she didn't say anything, he would definitely investigate the matter himself. At that time, it would be really troublesome. Suddenly, Shangguan Xinyi had an idea."Sigh, I'll tell you if you want to know so much, but you're not allowed to laugh at me.”Shangguan Xinyi pouted.
"Alright, tell me, what did you do to get beaten up like this?”Xiao Hen saw Shangguan Xinyi's expression and understood that this girl must have done something to be beaten like this.
" Well... it's just..." Shangguan Xinyi pinched her clothes and blushed." It's just that I've been serving the Princess Consort…I've seen His Highness a few times, I…I like His Highness…" Shangguan Xinyi actually lowered her head when she said the words " I like His Highness ". Even her earlobes turned red, showing the look of a young girl in love, but the scars on her face made her look especially comical.
She wasn't faking it. She really did mention the word " like " and her face unconsciously heated up. If the blush just now was caused by her doing something to force her breath onto her face, then at this moment, she was really blushing…She had never said the word " like " since she was born, but today she said it like this. Moreover, the person she liked was her husband. This made her feel like a little girl…
" Pfft…Hahaha!" Xiao Hen couldn't hold it in anymore. This girl's appearance was too…too funny…His laughter echoed throughout the room.
"What are you laughing at? Don't laugh! Don't bring her here!”Shangguan Xinyi raised her head and stared at the black clothed masked man who was laughing happily.
"Hahaha…okay…haha…I…I won't laugh…I won't laugh. You…haha, don't worry. When I came in, I had already placed the people around this courtyard. They won't wake up for a while.”Xiao Hen clutched his stomach and suppressed his laughter.
"Humph!" When Shangguan Xinyi heard Xiao Hen say that this person was already unconscious, she was relieved and said coldly, Then, I was beaten up by a woman in green today, probably the wife of one of the courtyards in the wangfu. She even warned me heavily not to have any thoughts about wangye.”Shangguan continued to lie.
"You…you like the Ninth Prince, Xie Fengming?”Xiao Hen pulled off the black cloth covering his face and said in disbelief,""Girl, are you out of your mind? Liked him? Do you know how many women he has? Do you know how he killed his woman? Putting this aside, how could his looks be better than mine? How could he let me dislike him and like him?”
"Why do you care? I just like him…" Shangguan Xinyi felt a little guilty, and her voice became softer and softer…
Shangguan Xinyi's current appearance made Xiao Hen confirm the fact that Shangguan Xinyi liked Xiefeng Ming. He sighed helplessly and said: "Sigh, you deserve to be hit. Why don't you tell me who you like? If he likes you, your doomsday will come. Girl, why don't you leave with me? We can go and cause trouble for Ling Qiu Manor together.”Xiao Hen suggested.
"No, why would I leave with you when I'm fine in the Imperial Residence? Hurry up and teach me the art of disguise!" Shangguan Xinyi urged Xiao Hen. How could she not want to leave? But she knew she couldn't do that…
" Why don't we do it another day? Your face…" Xiao Hen looked at Shangguan Xinyi and hesitated.
"My face is fine! Teach me quickly. If I learn it, I can go out of the residence to find you and stir up the Shangguan family together!”Shangguan Xinyi's eyes lit up.
Xiao Hen smiled helplessly." Alright…I'll teach you. It's getting late, so I'll teach you some techniques. No one will recognize you. But you'll have to rely on yourself to make the changes. If I'm not wrong, Jiu Wangye will be back in four hours. Let's hurry."”As soon as Xiao Hen finished speaking, something that looked like human skin appeared in his hand.
"How do you know when His Highness will return?”Shangguan Xinyi asked in confusion, then pointed at the human skin-like thing and asked: "Whose skin did you peel off? Could it be the skin on the face of a dead person in the cemetery?”
With a bang, Shangguan Xinyi's head was hit hard.""If I want to come to the Ninth Prince's Mansion, of course I have to find out the background of the Prince's Mansion! Do you think Jiu Wangye is that easy to deal with?”Xiao Hen waved the skin-like object in his hand and said,""Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. This isn't human skin. Even if it was human skin, it would be peeled off from the face of a living person. They wouldn't go to a cemetery to peel off the skin of a dead person. Only the skin of a living person is elastic.”Xiao Hen saw that the person in front of him had described the thing in his hand as terrifying, and he couldn't help but give Shangguan Xinyi a violent blow while not forgetting to scare her.
"Oh, then what is this? Pig skin?" Shangguan Xinyi took the human skin-like item from Xiao Hen's hand and ignored the question of whether it was human skin or dead skin.
Xiao Hen shook his head and took out a small white porcelain bottle."Look, the thing in your hand is this!”He poured a flesh-colored powder into his hand, walked to the table, picked up the kettle, and poured water into his hand to mix with the powder...
Just like that, a wonderful thing happened. The water quickly merged with it and formed a human skin-like object in an instant, causing Shangguan Xinyi to be amazed.
"So it's that simple! With this powder, wouldn't he be able to do whatever he wanted?”Shangguan Xinyi said with a smile as she looked at the newly formed item in Xiao Hen's hand.
"Stupid girl! According to what you said, wouldn't my unique skill become a common thing? Which sect can use it if they want to?”Xiao Hen said unhappily.
"What's the difference? I didn't see anything different.”Shangguan Xinyi asked curiously.
"Inner force, aura!" Xiao Hen said lightly,"Little girl, look at my palm carefully!"”As Xiao Hen spoke, he raised his palm and revealed his aura in a faint blue color. Then, it turned from blue to colorless…
Shangguan Xinyi opened her eyes wide and shouted,"I understand now! This technique was to transfer the internal energy in the body into the palm in a physical state, then turn it invisible and then control the water to fuse with the powder. It seemed simple, but there was a great mystery hidden in it. No wonder, haha, it was really amazing!”Shangguan Xinyi's eyes revealed an excited look as she explained the reason.
" Hehe, you're smart enough to understand it at a glance. Now, let me teach you how to use it. This powder is called Face Changing Powder. Don't call it powder in your mouth. Look…" Xiao Hen took the human skin-like thing and put it on his face. Then, he used his unique technique to pinch it into any shape and stick it on his face…
"Wow, Xiao Hen, you're really amazing!" Shangguan Xinyi looked at the man in his thirties who she did not know and sighed.
"Little girl, have you learned it?" Xiao Hen did not pay any attention to Shangguan Xinyi's sigh and asked seriously.
The mysterious mask changed as Xiao Hen's expression changed.
"Yes, I understand. This step is no different from the previous step. It is controlled by the aura of internal energy.”Shangguan Xinyi nodded seriously, but the injury on her face added a little comical to her seriousness.
Xiao Hen held back his laughter and handed Shangguan Xinyi a piece of paper."It's good that you understand. This is the recipe for changing your face powder. Remember it as soon as possible and then destroy it. I've taught you everything that you need to know. The rest will depend on your luck. I originally wanted to teach you personally and let you try it with your own face, but I'm afraid your face is not suitable.”His meaning was very obvious. He was telling Shangguan Xinyi that he would stop teaching her, and whether she learned or not would depend on herself. He had already taught her enough.
