Chapter 76: Li Qiushui's appearance is restored, Xixia surrenders
"What dowry?"

Li Qiu Shui picked up the teacup and asked casually.

But Zhao Mu took out a jade box. After opening it, a strong medicinal fragrance instantly filled his face.

"What is this?"

Li Qiu Shui was frightened when she saw this.

Although we don't know what kind of elixir this is, just from the fragrance it's clear that it's no ordinary item.

"This pill is called the Beauty Pill. It can restore your appearance and keep you young forever!"

When Zhao Mu said this, Li Qiu Shui was stunned.

She raised her head silently, staring at Zhao Mu with her eyes.

At this moment, she was sure that Zhao Mu knew everything about her.

This gift was not given out of thin air. The other party clearly knew that her appearance was ruined, so he gave her this gift.

But it must be said that Zhao Mu really had a hold on her lifeline.

She was born with a natural beauty and outstanding appearance. Wuyazi even fell in love with her. However, this also made the Tianshan Child-Lao jealous, so she took advantage of her practicing martial arts to destroy her appearance.

She has been brooding over this matter for many years.

Although the human skin mask can cover up the flaws, she knows in her heart that they are just appearances.

She never dared to take off the mask over the years because she was afraid of seeing her true appearance.

Now, hearing about such a magic pill, she instantly became excited.

"Does this pill really have such miraculous effects?"

Li Qiu Shui looked at the round pill, her eyes were firmly fixed on it.

"You'll know the effect once you give it a try, Queen Mother!"

Hearing this, Li Qiu Shui hurriedly picked up the pill and put it into her mouth without any hesitation.

Then, she felt an unbearable itch on her face.

Her face seemed to be shedding skin, and she felt a tingling sensation that frightened her.

She desperately wanted to take off the mask, but looking at Zhao Mu in front of her, she held back.

She didn't want to reveal her true appearance in front of outsiders.

What if this medicine doesn't work? Wouldn't she be exposed as a coward?
Li Qiushui regained his composure, pretended to be calm, waved to call the maid and gave her an order!
"Take Prince Mu to see the princess and tell him my will. I have agreed to marry the princess to Prince Mu. Let the princess come to see me later!"

The maid took the order and took Zhao Mu away!

Li Qiu Shui hurried back to the house, took off her mask, and pieces of dead skin fell off.

With trembling hands, she picked up the bronze mirror beside her, her heart extremely nervous.

Until the familiar face appeared in the bronze mirror, Li Qiu Shui was stunned for a moment.

After so many years, she finally saw her original appearance again.

Moreover, I seem to have become much younger now.

Her skin is even more dewy than when she was young.

She quickly asked someone to fetch some clean water and washed the dead skin off her face.

A delicate and beautiful face appeared in the water.

At this moment, Li Qiu Shui felt like she was dreaming.

It was a long time before she finally recovered from the shock.

It has to be said that Zhao Mu really brought her a big gift this time.

What Tianshan Tonglao? Those are just old grudges. The elixir that can restore her appearance is what she really needs.

Just as Li Qiu Shui was sighing, a report came from the servants outside.

Zhao Mu and the others are back!
Li Qiu Shui pushed open the door and walked out.

She could not help but feel happy when she noticed the maids around her staring at her curiously. After so many years, she could finally show herself in this look!
When Zhao Mu saw Li Qiu Shui again, although he had expected it in his heart, he did not expect that Li Qiu Shui's original appearance would be so beautiful.

Agile and beautiful is not enough to describe Li Qiushui at this moment. Perhaps this is the reason why she was able to win Wuyazi and sit on the throne of Queen of Western Xia!
The human skin mask in the past was similar to her current appearance, but less lively.

Even Princess Yinchuan Li Qinglu, who was standing by, noticed that something was different about her mother.

Li Qinglu is simply a younger version of Li Qiu Shui, the two seem like they were cast in the same mold.

However, compared to Li Qiu Shui's domineering personality, Li Qinglu appears much gentler.

"Mother, why do you seem to be much younger?"

Li Qinglu spoke with a look of surprise on her face, walked forward and hugged Li Qiu Shui's arm.

When Li Qiushui heard this, she chuckled, looked up at Zhao Mu, and said softly.

"This is all thanks to His Royal Highness Prince Mu, who brought the elixir."

Li Qiu Shui said this and pulled Li Qinglu to sit down.

At this moment, her attitude towards Zhao Mu has softened a lot.

"Lu'er, have you received my order?"

Li Qinglu nodded and glanced at Zhao Mu secretly, with a hint of hesitation in her expression.

Being in an imperial family, she had long expected that this day would come, but she did not expect it to come so soon.

However, looking at Zhao Mu in front of her, Li Qinglu felt somewhat relieved.

At least she is not forced to marry an old emperor. This is a good thing for her!

"In that case, I will issue an edict later to confer Zhao Mu the title of Prince Consort of Xixia!"

"Mu'er, you said earlier that you had something to do and couldn't stay any longer, so I won't say anything more!"

"I will feel relieved if Lu'er follows you in the future!"

"As for the rest, if you need anything, just come to me. Xixia will fully support you!"

Seeing this, Zhao Mu bowed.

"Thank you, mother. I will have Tong Lao sent over later!"

"No need, I've already sent someone to go!" Li Qiushui waved her hand, "This person will no longer exist in this world, and these grudges end here!"

Zhao Mu nodded slightly after hearing this.

After chatting for a while, Zhao Mu followed Li Qinglu back to her palace.

As the matter happened in a hurry, everything was kept simple. Li Qinglu packed up some things casually and followed Zhao Mu out of the palace.

Now Zhao Mu didn't want to expose himself too early, so he didn't plan to announce what happened between the two of them. Li Qiu Shui understood what he meant and withdrew his order.

Just let Li Qinglu go back with Zhao Mu first.

Li Qinglu changed into ordinary clothes. Perhaps it was the characteristic of Western Xia that the clothes here looked more gorgeous.

Wearing a red dress with colorful embroidery, coupled with Li Qinglu's already outstanding appearance, she now looks like the flying goddess in the Dunhuang murals.

A touch of exotic style, particularly charming.

When they returned to the residence, Ye Erniang and others hurried to greet them.

"Your Highness, someone has arrived from behind! She said she wants to take your girl away!"

"I know! Let her take it away!"

"Your Highness, you should go and talk to them in person. Your subordinate is confronting them right now!"

Ye Erniang looked embarrassed. Although she had never seen Nangong take action, she could feel how powerful he was. If she had not dissuaded him before, the people sent by the Queen Mother would probably have died by now.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Mu hurried in.

Sure enough, he saw several guards in golden armor standing in the yard, and opposite them, Nangong was sitting indifferently, blocking the gate.

“Nangong, let them take Xiaoyu away!”
