When she first went to Jishan, she often had the same dream.

It was an extremely grand palace banquet, a birthday party held by His Majesty of the Emperor of Zhongrong for his only legitimate princess.

The eyes were filled with red that covered the sky and the sun, as if there was no other color in the world except red. The layout was gorgeous but not vulgar, lively and unrestrained. The king and his subjects feasted together and enjoyed the people, making the atmosphere of the heavenly family.

The sound of silk and bamboo is pleasant; the ringing ring is beautiful. All the laughter and singing and dancing almost penetrate the sky, and even overshadow the sound of the iron hoofs of the King of Xijing's army breaking through the city gate.

She will never forget that day, when the iron hooves of the Xijing army stepped through the palace gate, and her ears were filled with the sound of cold swords slashing through flesh and blood, the screams of women, the crying of children, and the sounds were shrill, almost piercing her eardrums. She hid under the corpse of her mother and watched with her own eyes General Xijing cut off her father's head, and the warm blood was cut into an arc and sprayed on her face.

The red sky covered for her seventh birthday became the greatest irony. A fire made the sky reflected like daytime and the blood on the ground a nightmare that trapped her. She could not escape or get rid of it.

"ah--"

Yue Luo woke up from her dream screaming. She kept gasping for breath, her whole body was completely wet with cold sweat.

In the dream, she was not rescued by Guiguzi who was wandering around, but kept shuttled through the burning palace and could not run out no matter how hard she ran. The dead bodies were piled at her feet. She wanted to scream but couldn't make any sound.

She just stared at the fire in such a daze that it hurt her eyes and never saw each other again.

She hasn't had this dream for a long time. What happened? Is it just because of a confrontation with that man?

The sky began to light up hazyly, and the moon set no longer had sleepiness. She sat up in her clothes.

"Yue Niang", Yuzhu's anxious voice came from outside the door, "Are you okay?"

"fine"

She was no longer the carefree princess she had ever been, and nothing could stop her from revenge.

The moon set ignited the letter paper in his hand, watching it finally ignite into a pile of powder.

"Shang Qi did not disappoint me," she smiled, "but I didn't expect that the prince would find Luoyuelou's head first."

Yuyan heard this and said, "While King Chen went to fight against Nanyi, he earned another dozen military merits, but he lost control of the capital, which can be regarded as a loss of peace and prosperity."

"The prince will never be a mediocre person. He has been able to go hand in hand with the King of Chen, who has been doing military achievements for so many years. Apart from His Majesty's preference, his ability should not be underestimated." Yue Luo shook his head and turned to Yuyan, "I have worked hard these days, so I will pay attention to the movements in the court at any time."

"Yes, Yue Niang."

"Yue Niang, come and see." Yuzhu heard the sound before she even entered the door.

Yue Luo looked at Yuzhu with disgust and said, "Why are both girls I trained, Yuyan is much more dignified than you?"

"That's because you didn't see through her essence." Yuzhu leaned close to her ears and said terrifiedly.

Yue Luo smiled when she heard this, "Tell me, what do you want me to see?"

Yuzhu opened the sandalwood box in her hand and held it to Yue Luo like a treasure. "When I was cleaning up the warehouse this morning, I found a human skin mask, and I looked just for Yue Niang to use it."

"Why should I wear it for Yue Niang? Isn't it a pity for Yue Niang to be beautiful?" Yuyan glanced at Yuzhu and smiled and said, "I think it's just right to wear it for you, but this mask is a little smaller, and I don't know whether to cover your face or not?"

Yuzhu screamed and pinched Yuyan's mouth. The two of them twisted into a ball and threw the mask on the dressing table. Yueluo shook her head in a funny way. It seemed that Yuyan's dignity and perseverance immediately disappeared as soon as she arrived in front of Yuzhu.

She picked up the mask as thin as a cicada and put it in the sun to take a closer look. The mask was made of very ordinary. I think Uncle Lin had put some effort into it, but

A woman's beauty is the most poisonous weapon of this time.

Of course, it is good to play occasionally. Yue Luo put on the mask and carefully sealed the fitting area between the mask and the skin on the side of the face with water. He came to the mirror and looked at the strange self. He really had no trace of the past.

"Yue... Yue Niang?" Yuzhu asked uncertainly, and Yue Luo blinked mischievously at her.

"Oh my God, this craft is too good, it's exactly the same as a real human face." Yuzhu screamed, which scared Yuyan.

As he was speaking, a maid with a good appearance hurriedly came from the front yard and said respectfully, "Yue Niang, the shopkeeper asked me to tell you that a distinguished guest asked for a visit."

Yue Luo turned around and said, "It's just for a good hospitality."

The maid lowered her head and said, "The visitor indicated that she wanted to see you. The shopkeeper Xin seemed to be noble in his behavior, and even the servant who was following her was dressed in extraordinary clothes. I think she must have come from the palace."

Yue Luo stroked the human skin mask that had just been put on her face, pushed away the veil handed over by Yu Yan and said, "Go and tell Brother Xin and ask someone to serve him carefully, and I will arrive later."

As soon as Yue Luo opened the door, she saw a man standing in front of the window with his hands on his back. He slowly turned around when he heard someone open the door. The man looked about twenty-seven or eight years old, with a very handsome face. As Brother Xin said, he could bear the word nobility, but his eyebrows were full of power, which made people feel timid.

The moon sets forward and salutes, "I have met the young master."

The man didn't look at her, but raised his hand to signal her to get up, then sat on the couch in front of the window, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "It's really hard for girls to ask for me. My visits were backed by the girl, so I had to come to my door in person."

Yue Luo smiled slightly, "Maybe the people below are not doing their jobs well, which delays the young master's affairs. Yue Luo is incompetent in control of the subordinates. I hope the young master will forgive him." Her words were apologizing, but she said neither humble nor arrogant, and she had a sense of pride.

The man looked up at her, drank the wine in the glass without saying a word.

The method used by those who are in high positions to deter those who are in a low position is to be silent. The more silent the higher the person is, the more frightened the person is.

She saluted and apologized, and she had no reason to stand and speak on her territory. She smiled faintly and sat on the man's lower head, poured himself a cup of tea and then brushed off the tea foam from the cup with the lid.

The servant in green clothes beside the man could not see her neglecting her master so much, and scolded him: "Don't you know who is sitting in front of you? What about your shopkeeper? Why don't you come out to see our master soon."

Yue Luo got up and poured a cup of tea for the man and asked, "Who are you?"

"This is the prince of the current dynasty, and I am your highness's attendant!"

Yue Luo's heart was thrilled and she thought to herself, "It's coming so soon." She tilted her head and seemed to think for a moment, and got up and poured a cup of tea for the servant, "Why do you also moisten your mouth?"

The servant was about to take off, Xuan Lin raised his hand to stop the servant from speaking, and smiled and said, "I came here today to satisfy two curiosities. One is Qi, the purple gold alcohol that is famous all over the country, and the other is Qi, the owner of the first floor of the world. It seems that this trip is indeed worth it now."

Yue Luo pursed her lips and smiled, "The Prince is too honored, but the Prince seems to have never seen my poster. How do you talk about this trip?"

"Looking at the girl's delicate and weak nature, is she actually taking care of this huge restaurant alone?" Xuan Lin seemed not to want to answer Yue Luo's question, and casually changed the topic.

She turned her head slightly and smiled at Xuan Lin with a sly smile, "I can't say it."

Xuan Lin seemed to have never expected that he would be rejected, and a smile with interest appeared on the corner of his mouth and said, "Oh? Why?"

She explained, "The question of the prince is like asking about a woman's marriage. If you know that I am not married, you will propose to our poster to betrothed to your staff. Our poster does not want to lose me, but dare not offend you. If you know that our poster is thinking, you will be worried, and your worry will delay the emperor's work. Then isn't this the sin of the civilian woman's opening words?

Xuan Lin laughed, "'Water fell down and combed his bun, Lian Juan swept his eyebrows finely.' The girl used a green hairpin with a Japanese bun, and her long hair was drooping but not holding it up, and she knew that you were not married. Your hands were delicate and there were a few calluses on the middle knuckles of your right hand, and you knew that you were literally literally. Your facial expression was stiff, but your eyes were very lively, and you knew that the girl did not show me her true face."

Xuan Lin paused, as if looking at her reaction.

After drinking tea, he said, "The girl is not at all stubborn when dealing with people, she is calm and natural in her work, and her attitude is neither humble nor arrogant. Especially after knowing the identity of this palace, she is not afraid, which means that you often deal with high-ranking officials. The owner of the Yueda Building, what this palace says is wrong."

Xuanlin was very knowledgeable, and Yue Luo was shocked by his meticulous thoughts. The current crown prince is indeed not an ordinary person. If he had not been a crown prince since childhood, he would inevitably be arrogant and had lost his virtues. Otherwise, how could his younger brothers be coveted of the crown prince? But then again, which prince would have no desire for the throne of the supreme world?

Since the other party knew her true identity, there was no need to hide it. She smiled generously and stood up to apologize to Xuan Lin, "The cleverness of the folk girl could not escape the prince's eyes, which made you laugh.

Xuan Lin personally helped Yue Luo up and said, "It's okay, girl, don't blame me for being abrupt."

"How dare?" She lowered her head, as if she really didn't dare to blame her, but she quickly considered the purpose of the prince's trip. Naturally, it was not as simple as the two points he said.

She lowered her head, revealing her slender and fair neck, her eyelashes slightly shaking, looking as soft and gentle as a deer. Her body naturally exuded a sweet fragrance, which was completely different from the powdery aroma of a woman he smelled on weekdays.

Xuan Lin's heart moved.

The last time I was chased in the suburbs of Beijing was foolproof, but he underestimated the owner of Luoyuelou. As the crown prince of Dongqi, he had seen many women, but this woman with good intentions and calculating in front of him could arouse his interest more than those vulgar fans with big breasts and no brains. Although it is not liked, conquering such a woman will indeed make him feel more accomplished.

However, today's trip is for recruiting talents. Since the future is long, he is not in a hurry. He suppressed the little bit of beautiful thoughts in his heart and said,

"I will hold a banquet in the East Palace tomorrow. I will invite the girl a few days ago. My servants may have been careless when writing, and I cannot explain the meaning of my palace. I hope the girl will enjoy the gift."

He did not mention sending people to chase him, but instead he looked like a good lord who was respectful and polite.

As soon as he waved his hand, the servant respectfully handed over a thin post. Yue Luo took it with both hands and bowed to the prince again, "Why should the prince go for such a small matter and let the subordinates say it."

Xuan Lin smiled slightly, "Since that's the case, I will wait for the girl's arms in the East Palace." After that, he got up and took the folding fan handed by the servant and went to the outsider.

"Your Highness walk slowly." Yue Luo respectfully took a few steps back and sideways to avoid it, lowered his head and watched the corner of the prince's clothes swept past his eyes.

As soon as the prince left, Brother Xin walked out of the side door and whispered, "There is no good banquet for the banquet, you should just send it to the hospital."

Yue Luo gently took off the mask on her face and showed a beautiful and elegant face. She joked, "I was fine when the prince came just now. I was sick as soon as he left. I didn't know what kind of illness the prince had given me."

Brother Xin didn't have the leisure time to joke. He said with concern, "This is obviously a Hongmen banquet, an open banquet, but secretly..."

"But what? Today is the invitation sent by the prince himself. He was first intimidated, and then he acted as a polite and polite person. I would not go but lose the demographic."

"The prince is unstable, and his subordinates are afraid of being ineffective against the poster."

"What? Do you think the prince can eat me?" Yue Luo smiled indifferently, "Even if he is the future emperor, he is still his world now."

"But--"

"No, but." Yue Luo sat on the small couch that Xuan Lin had just sat on, and a charming smile appeared on the corner of her lips. "Since it is a Hongmen Banquet, how can you not leave?"
