Chapter 425 Just Be a Waste
Lou Yulan's heart tightened when she was suddenly called by Shen Jingyu, and she hurriedly said, "Yulan knows that my cousin is in a bad mood, but Yulan hopes that my cousin can get what she wants the most."
Shen Jingyu pulled the corner of her mouth, and her face wrapped in fine cloth looked a little weird.
Lou Yulan lowered her head with a humble attitude.
Shen Jingzhen wanted to say something, but the slap on her face made her unable to even open her mouth.
She shook her head and struggled desperately. She didn't know where she got the strength from, but after being slapped more than twenty times, she stood up and slammed into the nanny in front of her.
Mammy staggered after being knocked by her and fell to the ground: "Ouch!"
Immediately afterwards, Shen Jingzhen staggered out of the tent.
Shen Jing's tone was not light, and she stood up all of a sudden: "Bring her back to me!"
Qin Xuerong cried and stopped her: "Yu Jie'er, forget it! Your sister has already known that she was wrong. Besides, there are so many nobles here. If you make a big fuss, it will only make others laugh at you, and it will affect your reputation..."
Madam Qin also said, "You should calm down now. Your mother is right. If we make a big fuss at this time, it will only implicate you."
Shen Jingyu sat back unwillingly and said through gritted teeth: "Grandma is right."
"You go back first. I have something to say to Sister Yu." Old Madam Qin looked at Qin Guiqiong and the others.
Qin Guiqiong looked at Shen Jingyu for a while, then looked at the unfamiliar old woman, and said obediently, "Yes."
After saying that, Qin Guiqiong took Lou Yulan out of the tent first and let out a long sigh.
"It's really scary." Qin Guiqiong patted his chest and then turned to look at his daughter.
When I looked closer, I saw that my daughter's expression was calm, without any disturbance at all.
"Sister Lan, tell mother, just now..."
Before Qin Guiqiong finished speaking, Lou Yulan interrupted and said, "Mother, it doesn't make sense to mention it now. But mother, do you think that cousin's face can be restored?"
Qin Guiqiong frowned and said after a while: "I think it's difficult. With such a serious injury on the face, even the imperial physician is helpless..."
"But if your grandmother has some unusual means, it is possible."
Hearing this, Lou Yulan said nothing more and once again thought of the old woman beside Old Madam Qin.

Inside the tent, Old Madam Qin sent Qin Xuerong and several maids out, and asked her trusted followers to guard outside.
She looked at the slightly hunched woman and said, "Did you see the wound on Sister Yu'er's face just now? What's wrong? Is there any way to treat it?"
Shen Jingyu's gaze fell on the old woman, and there was also a hint of expectation in her.
The old woman said slowly, "Young Miss is seriously injured. Ordinary medicine may not be able to cure her. It is best to take placenta along with the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician. There may be a glimmer of hope."
"Placenta?" Shen Jingyu frowned.
"Yes, placenta has been a tonic since ancient times. It is good for beauty, nourishing blood and replenishing qi. However, this substance is rare. If the young lady wants to take it for a long time, it may take some effort..."
Shen Jingyu didn't say anything, but her frown never relaxed.
She knew what placenta was. If she took this thing, once the news got out, she would be ruined!
Madam Qin continued: "What about another method?"
The old woman said, "I can make a 'mask' for you, young lady, and put it on your face, so that you won't look too different from your original appearance."
"As for the hair, after you shave it off, I can glue the strands together for you and then glue the whole piece onto your head."
After saying this, the old woman said nothing more.
Shen Jingyu's eyes were gloomy and hesitant.
In this way, her hair and face are fake, but as long as they are fake, there is no guarantee that they will not be discovered.
Madam Qin said, "You should stay at the Qin family and rest more quietly. Show up occasionally so that others won't get suspicious. You can always take care of your face."
Shen Jingyu said self-deprecatingly: "Recover? Grandma, do you think my face can be recovered?"
When she looked in the bronze mirror just now, she was so disgusted that even she didn't want to look at it for even a second, let alone others?
Shen Jingzhen, ah Shen Jingzhen...
She never dreamed that the one who ended up hurting her was her own sister.
There were more tears in Shen Jingyu's eyes. After a while, she lowered her eyes and said, "Go and get ready."
She had no other choice. Compared to wearing a mask every day, becoming the laughing stock of the entire capital was more difficult for her to accept.
She was in every way wrong. She shouldn't have announced her marriage to the Eighth Prince so early.
But she didn't want to hear about the marriage, she just had no chance to get close to Xiao Yuncheng, so she could only create opportunities.
After a while, it is inevitable that some people will make fun of this.
However, Xiao Yuncheng never denied it and repeatedly expressed his love for her in front of others, which caused a sensation in the city and became known to everyone.
Now, she has no way out!
"Let's prepare the 'facial skin' first. As for the hair, we can do it after we return home from the autumn hunt." Shen Jingyu said softly.
Hearing this, Old Madam Qin felt a little relieved.
The old woman stepped forward and touched Shen Jingyu's face, carefully memorizing her eyebrows, eyes and bones.
This so-called "face skin" actually originated from the human skin masks in the martial arts world. It's just that one of her ancestors was good at this and figured out a secret method to make the mask as thin as a cicada's wing and lifelike.

On the other side, Shen Shuyi had just arrived in front of the tent when he saw Jianpo coming back to report.
After exchanging pleasantries with the group for a while, Shen Shuyi and Jianpo came to the side. Jianpo whispered, "According to my observation, not counting the princes, Huo Xuan, Feng Bochang, and Song Tingshan should have won the first place."
"Who?" Shen Shuyi paused.
"Huo Xuan, Feng Bochang, and Song Tingshan."
Shen Shuyi curled his lips and turned to look at Jianpo: "I don't know when did Prince Song become good at hunting?"
Being stared at by those smiling almond eyes, Jianpo felt an inexplicable sense of oppression.
"There are quite a few disputes about the ranking of Prince Song, and several generals are still arguing about it. Song Tingshan seems to have set up a lot of traps in the forest to assist in trapping prey, and then shooting them with arrows." Jianpo said.
Shen Shuyi chuckled, this was really in line with Xiao Tingshan's style.
She said nothing, walked to a tree not far away, and looked from afar in the direction where the prey was counted, her almond-shaped eyes dim.
Song Tingshan was really an evil man with unrepentant intentions. He wanted to prove to Emperor Qianwu that although he was weak and not good at martial arts, he was very intelligent and could also capture many preys.
It is indeed difficult to determine whether this matter is in accordance with the rules, but regardless of whether he wins or loses, he will leave a deep impression on Emperor Qianwu.
After all, since the Daqian Autumn Hunt, there has never been a case of capturing prey in this way.
Xiao Tingshan must have wanted Emperor Qianwu to believe that the enemy would not always follow the rules and act according to his own rules whether they were marching to war or handling court affairs.
He wanted to prove to Emperor Qianwu that he would never accept his fate!
Thinking of this, Shen Shuyi sneered, but he forgot that there is a similar word to "never accept one's fate", which is "never content with home".
She wouldn't let him succeed.
Xiao Tingshan, you should just be a waste in this life!
