Su Qing took out a handkerchief from his pocket. Ji Shuisheng was immediately alerted when he saw it. He held his breath and covered his nose.

Su Qing looked at him speechlessly, then exited the carriage under Ji Shuisheng’s gaze. She took a handkerchief and wiped old Qin’s sweat.
“Father, it’s too hot. You should go in and rest.”
Qin Feng’s head felt heavy, and he fell asleep.
Ji Shuisheng hurriedly helped him into the carriage, but Su Qing motioned for him to continue shaving.
Ji Shuisheng understood what she meant and took out his treasured knife. Without a mirror, he touched and shaved his beard. The special knife was quite sharp when shaving and was much faster than Su Qing when shaving Ji Shuisheng’s beard.
…..
Su Qing turned around and felt that something was wrong.
Since he shaved so quickly, Why didn’t he shave just now?
It was her first time shaving a man’s beard, so she was careful not to hurt him. How was he? Was he comfortable being served?
Ji Shuisheng had finished shaving his beard, revealing a handsome face. He was handsome. His eyes were bright like stars, his eyebrows were sharp, and his high nose outlined the temperament of a tough man. Su Qing began to believe Xiaoying’s words.
“Put this on your face.”
Su Qing gave him a face-changing mask. It was a face that was burnt and full of potholes. It was a terrifying sight.
She felt that after getting used to his fierce look, this suited him better.
This mask was what she had instructed Xiao Qi to make yesterday. Xiao Qi ran in front of the screen and learned it for a long time.
Su Qing felt sorry for Xiao Qi. She made her do everything; most importantly, Xiao Qi had no complaints.
Su Qing’s heart was filled with warmth. In the past, she had only treated Xiao Qi as the healing system, her servant.
Now, it felt like things had changed. Xiao Qi was her family, a sister who had no blood relations.
Ji Shuisheng quickly stuck the mask on his face. He didn’t want Su Qing to see him in such an ugly state and make him look awkward.
“You drive the carriage.”
Su Qing turned around and was very satisfied after looking at him. This time, it was safe, so she handed the horsewhip to Ji Shuisheng.
“What about the beards?”
Ji Shuisheng looked at the carriage full of beards with worry. Su Qing said indifferently, “It can be used in medicine.”
“….”Ji Shuisheng.
Alright, I forgot that you’re a godly doctor.
Su Qing got busy the moment she returned to the carriage. She collected the scattered beards in the carriage and placed them into the system.
The crowd was still slowly moving forward, and the number of armored soldiers increased. The situation did not look good.
“Keep an eye on these two portraits.”
At the checkpoint, a man who looked like an officer galloped over and handed two portraits to the armored soldiers.
“A girl and a big-bearded man? Who is this?”
The military officer at the checkpoint looked at the portrait of a delicate and beautiful girl and a fierce-looking young man with a full beard. He asked the person who had come.
“The general said that these two people had stayed in the relay station with the old thief Qin. Later, they helped the old thief Qin fight against the city guards. The general suspects that they were the ones who broke him out of prison this time. The silver is also in their hands.”
The officer on the horse said. He pulled the reins of his horse and glared at the victims who were being interrogated, especially the white-haired old man. The general had ordered that whoever found Qin Feng would be promoted three ranks.
This was a huge temptation. Everyone hoped that he was the one who found Qin Feng.
“I see; then we’ll be more careful.”
When the people at the checkpoint heard that these two had fought with Qin Feng against the city protection Army, they immediately paid attention to them and showed the portrait to the officers and soldiers.
Su Qing was dressed in men’s clothes but didn’t feel at ease. It would easily arouse suspicion. After all, the original owner’s appearance was too delicate and handsome, and she was also exceptionally handsome in men’s clothes.
Su Qing had always been meticulous in her work and would never leave behind any mistakes. She asked Xiao Qi to get her a disguise pill.
When Xiao Qi heard that her master wanted to take a disguise pill, she quickly went to make it and gave it out.
“Master, it’s done.”
“Thank you,” she said.
Su Qing thanked her stiffly, and Xiao Qi was so happy that she almost flew.
“No need to thank me. I must serve my master!”
Su Qing’s lips curled into a smile as she swallowed the pill. She felt her face was on fire when she swallowed the pill. Just as she was about to take a mirror to see what she had become, it was their turn to be examined.
The officer first brought the portrait and compared it to Ji Shuisheng’s face. Seeing that his appearance was not right, he ordered him to take out his Travel Pass and household registration. As long as he did not have a Travel Pass and household registration, he would capture him and kill him as a spy.
Ji Shuisheng pretended to be afraid and kept calling him ‘Sir.’ He took out their travel pass and household registration from his arms.
“Who’s in the car? Come down for an examination.”
Seeing that Ji Shuisheng’s travel Pass and household registration were correct, the soldier used the back of his knife to smash the carriage to let Su Qing and old master Qin get off.
“Sir, my father is seriously ill and unconscious. Please have mercy.”
Su Qing exited the carriage and cupped her hands to the searching officers.
“Seriously ill? That won’t do either. Carry him down.”
The search officers didn’t care if you were sick or not. Even if you were dead, you had to be checked. Not only did they check the person, but they also checked the car to prevent people from being taken out under the car.
Ji Shuisheng could only carry his grandfather out of the carriage. Suddenly, he felt Su Qing bump into him. He glanced at Su Qing and saw that Su Qing’s face had significantly changed. From a delicate and handsome young man, she had become an ordinary man with low eyebrows and eyes. Her skin color had also changed from white to dark red, which was common among mountain men.
Ji Shuisheng’s amber pupils contracted. This was too fast.
The search officers turned the car upside down, and someone compared Su Qing’s portrait with the old master Qin’s.
When Ji Shuisheng saw the portrait of himself and Su Qing, he broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, Su Qing had thought about it thoroughly and changed their appearance. Otherwise, all his efforts to save his grandfather would have been in vain, and he and Su Qing would have also been implicated.
The soldiers looking at the portraits saw that Su Qing and the old Qin master were not the people they were looking for and waved their hands to let them pass.
Ji Shuisheng carried his grandfather back to the carriage and drove the carriage forward.
Passing this pass didn’t mean that they would be safe. There were still checkpoints in front, and the carriage was paramount. Not only were they looking for people, but they were also looking for silver.
In the Imperial Palace of the capital, the Emperor listened to the secret agent’s report and learned that his master had fallen off the cliff with the carriage. He immediately smiled.
“Alright. Once my master dies, the Wan family will have no more bargaining chips to force me.”
The eunuch felt a chill in his heart as he looked at the Emperor, who could still smile. As expected, emperors were all heartless. Old Qin was not only the Emperor’s teacher, but he also saved his life.
The eunuch suppressed his contempt for the Emperor and reported in a low voice,
“The Wan family Army doesn’t believe that the one who died was old Qin. They are searching along the way!”
“Still not giving up? Help me pass down the decree that Qin Feng is loyal to the monarch and loves his country. He resisted with his life to protect great Xia but was framed by the Barbarians. I have already found out the truth, but my teacher has died. Wuhu, my heart is in deep pain. I will confer Qin Feng the title of the National Guardian Elder.”
The Emperor issued the Imperial edict with a sad face, but his eyes were full of spirit. The eunuch felt sorry for the old Qin, but it was good that he didn’t have to be killed.
Wan Yulin knew the Emperor had issued an Imperial edict, and he could no longer suppress his anger. He smashed the table with his palm,
“Little Yongqi?”
“General, are we still going to search along the road?”
