The women stretched out their hands to ease the veil under their faces.
The elders have already ordered, and the emperor's words clearly cannot be rejected, how can they resist.
This pick carries a strong sense of shame.
The feeling of being forced makes people feel like eating a fly.
The eyes that were sitting around fell on their faces, mocking them with ridicule.
They are like clowns at this moment.
Liu Yusheng didn't look at anyone, unwinding the veil indifferently, and an ordinary face appeared in front of everyone. Among the women of the Saint Witch tribe, the most inconspicuous, and even the skin was a little sallow.
The man on the other side kept watching her movements closely, even for a moment, the heartbeat increased with her movements.
But when I really saw that face, disappointment followed.
The whole face, except for the clear and smart eyes, can be said to have nothing to do with it.
Such a pair of eyes really shouldn't be worthy of such a face.
Pity.
"The outside world has always been rumored that the women of the holy witch tribe are extremely beautiful, and it is true today," someone praised, to break the slightly stalemate at this time, and give both sides a step down, "but don’t worry, saints Under the protection of the Liang royal family, no one dares to attack the holy witch clan's ideas casually, and no one dares to treat the holy witch clan's saints at will. In the palace, the saints don't need to be veiled anymore, just as comfortable as they are in the clan."
"That said, I just guessed that the saints are veiled all year round. They should be worried about being coveted. Women are weak and easy to suffer. But in the palace, and even in the whole Xiliang, as long as the royal family is there, the holy witch family will I will never be bullied."
At this time, the old emperor smiled and said, "The holy witch clan trusts my royal family. Naturally, my royal family will not live up to this trust. Come, celebrate with a toast at this moment, trust and be honest with each other!"
Qianfang reluctantly forced a smile, and brought all the women of the holy witch tribe to toast, "Thank you, the emperor, please."
After a glass of wine, the banquet ended.
On the way back to Yanshou Palace, Liu Yusheng noticed Elder Qianfang's red eyes.
After the women took off their veils, they were still depressed.
After thinking about it, Liu Yusheng whispered, "Elder, what are the saints entering the palace for? Isn't it the same purpose that the elder asked us to do just now?"
Qianfang was shocked and looked at the woman, but saw her turning around and asking the people around her, "Remove this veil, so that we Saint Witch tribe can avoid being angered and accountable, do you feel ashamed?"
It was Qianlan who asked Qianlan. Qianlan's eyes widened immediately and his waist straightened, "Of course not! I am proud to protect the people of the tribe!"
The woman asked Qianxue again, and Qianxue shook her head, "It's all about removing the veil, but it can make everyone well. What is my shame? I didn't do anything wrong."
The saints are the same answer.
Finally the woman turned her head to look at Qianfang, "Elder, it is not us who is at fault, why should we be sad?"
Deeply concentrating on the woman's ordinary face, Qianfang's eyes were gloomy and he smiled.
Yes, they are not the fault, why are they sad
The saint witch clan is weak, and they can only rely on the royal family to struggle for survival, otherwise the news that the saint women can help people live longer, without the protection of the royal family, will face even more unbearable fate for the women in the clan.
In order to survive, what is the shame of being humiliated for a while? For so many years, they have been sending women from the clan into the palace. Compared with sending them into the fire in person, what was the humiliation just now
They just want to live.
They just want the people of the tribe to continue to live.
Qianfang smiled, and the smile began to relieve.
The entire holy witch clan, from top to bottom, has always endured humiliation, including the saints who were sent to the palace, even if they were reluctant, they never resisted the tribe's decision.
It is because they all hope that the tribe can survive and not be annihilated in history like the Miao borders in the past.
They believe that the tribe will not be weak forever. One day, they will become strong on their own, so strong that they can protect themselves without relying on the royal family, and even make the world jealous!
One day, they can stand in front of the world with their heads up and their chests upright, and live like the Saint Witch tribe should be!
In the second half of the Huiyan Palace, the previous depression of the tribesmen was wiped out.
Behind a few people, the one not far or near, in fact, followed two figures.
It's just that everyone was immersed in emotions and didn't notice it.
Standing in front of the gate of Yanshou Palace, Ba Nian looked up at the three large lacquer and gold characters of Yanshou Palace above the palace, his eyes dark and difficult to distinguish.
The sense of loss after seeing the woman's true face at the banquet has always made him unable to reconcile.
I always feel that such a pair of eyes shouldn't be embedded in such an ordinary face.
So after leaving the meeting, unconsciously, he followed the woman and listened to the previous dialogue completely.
The shock in his heart at that time was far better than the interest brought by the smart expression and mocking eyes of the woman at the banquet.
That point of unwillingness, at that moment, turned into a strong curiosity and inquiry.
She was completely different from all the Saint Witch tribe women he had seen over the years.
There is no innocence who has never seen the world before being trapped in the small world of Shengwuzhai, and there is no impenetrable worldliness brought out in a semi-isolated captivity, and there is a strange sense of mystery everywhere.
He wanted to know what other treasures could be unearthed from the woman.
"Send someone to look up the one named Qianmei." As he turned and left, Ba Nian ordered the people behind him.
"The prince, the subordinates think it's wrong."
"What's wrong?"
"That saint named Qianmei dressed up as a woman, obviously she is already married and married, prince—"
The man turned his head, his eyes faintly swept over, and the subordinate swallowed the words behind, "The subordinate will send someone to investigate immediately."
Liu Yusheng didn’t know that he was being watched. When Feng Qingbai sneaked into the Xiangbo boudoir, he told him about what happened at the banquet. He didn’t forget to gnash his teeth. “There is no good person in the Xiliang royal family. They are all raccoon dogs, bullying others!"
Allowing the woman to show her true emotions in front of him and scold the Xiliang royal family all over, Feng Qingbaituo smiled and looked at the woman, very satisfied with her face.
"Don't take off the mask before leaving Xiliang."
"Why?" Liu Yusheng was startled.
"Xiliang imperial family doesn't have a good thing, this face looks safer."
"..." Looking at the man's face, Liu Yusheng felt the same way, "Your face now is also very safe."
With eyes facing each other, Qi Qi smiled.
Before going to bed, Liu Yusheng remembered their other companion, "You are here, is Xue Qinglian caught by you again?"
"It's not a top shift, he just sleeps in a different place."
"..."
The man raised his eyebrows, "Do you think he is pathetic?"
"No, I think you are right. He just sleeps in a different place."
