Palace servants said that the Regent Lin Xun's appearance was completely ruined and he looked like a ghost. But even though only half of his face was shown just now, it was still stunning.

Even among the Xie family, few have bones as deep and profound as his, but his eyebrows and eyes are beautiful and noble. With a face like this, I'm afraid all the so-called heroes in Kyoto combined cannot compare to half of his.

Perhaps because he had overused his brain today, Xiao Xuetang was still looking at the hideous mask so close to him, but his mind was blank, and what echoed in his mind was the beautiful face that did not seem real.

Xiao Xuetang has no resistance to anything beautiful.

For example, beautiful clothes, precious jewelry, beautiful flowers, cosmetics and...beauties.

To be fair, there was basically no ugly person around Xiao Xuetang from childhood to adulthood.

In addition to their knowledge, the Xie family is also famous in Kyoto for their beauty. Before Xie got married, she and Concubine Xie were known as the two beauties of the Xie family in Kyoto. The third master of the Xie family, Xie Xuehe, is an even more famous handsome man. The princess fell in love with him at first sight, and she has not married to him until now.

Lin Shaoshu and Xiao Yu, who were beside Xiao Xuetang, both had their own unique looks, but...

But it's still not as good as the stunning glimpse just now!

Even if it's just half a face.

At this moment, she was immersed in the beauty she had just glimpsed, and even forgot that she had thrown herself into his arms, with her hands supporting his chest...

It's quite sturdy and feels great!

It was not until the cold and chilly gaze from under the mask looked over that Xiao Xuetang belatedly recalled some rumors...

I heard that the last person who tried to remove his mask had his neck broken and was fed to dogs!

But today, she unexpectedly saw Lin Xun's face.

In this life, I saw Lin Xun’s face clearly for the first time!!!

My life is at an end...

Reason told Xiao Xuetang that he should run away, but at this moment Xiao Xuetang's hands seemed to be glued to him. His brain twitched, and he said, "Have we met before?"

Lin Xun looked at her deeply, with a hint of ambiguity...still a sense of inquiry.

Xiao Xuetang reacted instantly, crawling off his body, and quickly apologized, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I...I didn't mean to take advantage of you!"

Lin Xun said nothing and raised his hand gently...

That slender, bony hand was clearly heading towards her neck!

Xiao Xuetang's eyes were filled with tears: "My Lord, I...I don't want to die..."

Now, it was Lin Xun's turn to be speechless. He gently raised his eyelids and asked, "Does your neck hurt?"

It would have been fine if Lin Xun hadn't asked, but as soon as Xiao Xuetang asked, she felt a burning pain in her neck, and her eyes, which were originally only a little tearful, became even redder...

"painful……"

At this time, her voice was a little hoarse, and it sounded more like she was acting like a spoiled child. Lin Xun frowned slightly and said, "Don't act like a spoiled child."

Xiao Xuetang!!!

He was the one who asked her if it hurt, and she just answered truthfully, saying when did she start to act like a spoiled child.

However, seeing that he didn't seem to have any intention of breaking his neck, Xiao Xuetang breathed a sigh of relief for the time being.

How fearless and resolute he was when he threatened Emperor Yonghui with the sword just now, how regretful and upset he felt now.

She originally thought that she would just bleed a little, but she didn't expect the sword Mu Yan carried with her was so sharp...

Although Xiao Xuetang used the ointment she carried with her to treat the wound after leaving Wenyuan Pavilion, the ointment could only stop bleeding and had no analgesic effect. In addition, she only wrapped the wound with a handkerchief and didn't know how deep the wound was or whether it would leave a scar.

I feel like crying again...

At this moment, Lin Xun's eyes revealed a rare look of admiration. It was the first time he had seen a woman like this, who was injured but still so energetic!

As he spoke, he directly removed the handkerchief that Xiao Xuetang had casually wrapped around her neck to stop the bleeding.

"hiss……"

Xiao Xuetang gasped, tears streaming down her cheeks. Her beautiful peach blossom eyes were filled with tears. She couldn't believe how cruel and ruthless this man was...

"Bear it."

Facing the girl's gaze that seemed like accusation or even anger, the man was very hard-hearted and uttered two words expressionlessly!

Then, he opened the box he had been holding in his hand...

He had washed his hands before getting in the car, so he directly dug out a piece of light green paste from the box he had been playing with and applied it to Xiao Xuetang.

Instantly, the fragrance of herbs in the carriage spread, and the burning pain on Xiao Xuetang's neck eased a little. But whether it was intentional or not, his fingertips were burning hot, and when he accidentally wiped across her delicate skin, she couldn't help but feel a shudder...

The two were too close at this moment. Even though they were covered by a cold mask, Xiao Xuetang could still look directly into his deep eyes, so close.

In the cramped carriage, the smell of herbs could not cover the faint fragrance of cold sandalwood on his body. At this moment, Xiao Xuetang felt dizzy...

The carriage was traveling on an official road covered with moonlight. Oleander was planted on both sides of the road. The petals on the road were rolled over by the wheels of the carriage, like thin snowflakes.

A few petals were blown into the carriage by the night wind, and the memories deposited deep in the consciousness were like muddy and turbulent sand at the bottom of the water.

Ever since the dream about carnelian, she hadn't had such a beautiful dream for a long time.

But tonight, the moonlight was just right, and under that soft moonlight he was slightly attracted to her. His figure as he applied medicine to her, his usually cold face, and the ferocious mask he wore all seemed so gentle.

It was so gentle that she felt like this was just another lingering and beautiful dream...

"All right."

His voice was as cold and low as ever, like a small stone thrown into her beautiful reverie, waking her up instantly!

She thought, her cheeks burning, she lost her usual calmness and composure, and stammered, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"No need. If you go back with injuries, it will scare your grandmother."

Lin Xun replied calmly, and Xiao Xuetang suddenly realized...

Lin Xun had always been aloof, but tonight he waited in the carriage to apply medicine on her, which seemed to have exceeded the boundaries of cooperation and flattery between them.

It turns out that it was for the old princess!

Lin Xun stuffed the box of plaster into her hands and said calmly: "This is the Snow Scar Ointment that is only available in the Imperial Hospital. If you apply it once a day, there will be no scars."

and so……

Before leaving the palace, Lin Xun went to the Imperial Hospital.

Is it for her?

For some reason, Xiao Xuetang felt that not only her face was burning, but her heart was also beating fast. Could she be sick?

The night was as cool as water. The sound of a jade flute came from somewhere. The bitter smell of herbs in the carriage and the sandalwood scent on his body were particularly strong, and an unspoken ambiguity grew.

Xiao Xuetang was not as patient as Lin Xun. The atmosphere was too quiet and seemed even more ambiguous. She couldn't help but speak first: "Thank you for these days, Your Majesty."

If it weren't for Lin Xun, Xiao Xuetang wouldn't have been able to break off the engagement with Lin Shaoshu so smoothly, and Lin Shaoshu and Ye Jin would have suffered such a huge setback!

Lin Xun then asked back: "How should you thank me?"

Xiao Xuetang was stunned...

Lin Xun had been helping her these days without expecting anything in return, and she thought... she thought Lin Xun was such a kind-hearted person.

She spoke out her thoughts unconsciously.

Lin Xun suddenly smiled, glanced at her, and said nonchalantly: "This king never does business that loses money."

Under the ferocious mask, a faint light flashed across his dark eyes, like... a beast eyeing its favorite prey!
