Ah yes.
He had gotten accustomed to wearing the silver mask all these times that even after his identity was exposed, he still got out of the palace wearing the mask. For a moment, Long Zhao Feng was tempted to rip off the silver mask from his face and fling it against the ground. A small voice of sanity spoke to him and told him to not do it. The silver mask was a tool to pretend to be 'General Long Zhao Xue', but it was also an heirloom.
Long Zhao Feng did not know when his ancestors started to wear the silver mask to hide their own selves. It was as if they did not want their person to be associated with the title 'General Long Zhao Xue'. Other generals from other military families were proud to show their faces, proud to shoulder the joy and burden connected to the position. A long time ago, a 'General Long Zhao Xue' decided to wear a silver mask and passed it on to the next generations, who did the same. No one questioned this practice until this day.
