But weren't they all taken into the harem? How could they appear near Chengde Hall? You know, Chengde Hall is far away from the harem.
"Please, Princess, let me go this time."
Seeing Wen Yu staring at her, the dancer timidly begged for mercy again.
Wen Yu didn't mean to make things difficult for her, but it was strange for her to be here. "Shouldn't you be in the harem? Why are you here in Chengde Palace?"
The dancer shuddered, a tear trickling down her cheeks: "Reporting to the Princess, I ran here in a panic, but I didn't mean to offend you."
"escape?"
"Yes, although the emperor took me into the harem, he has not given me a status, not even the lowest rank, so I have been targeted by several maids of the good man. They take it out on me whenever they have nothing to do. Today, they even used the dog of the good man Shen to bite me, so I ran out in a panic."
What he said was so sincere and heartfelt.
Wen Yu nodded: "So you ran through most of the palace and ran to Chengde Palace, and just happened to run into this princess? Don't make up a story with so many loopholes. I am a straw bag, not a fool. What's wrong with you all?"
Dancer: ...
Her face changed, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Since the princess has seen through me, I will not pretend anymore. I want to be favored by the emperor, but the emperor seems to have forgotten me. In the harem, if I don't have the emperor's favor, I will live worse than a dog. So I want to take a gamble and ask the princess to help me..."
Wen Yu raised her eyebrows when she heard this. Before she could say anything, Liu Chun was furious: "How dare you! You even dared to come to the princess to compete for her favor! You even dared to spy on her whereabouts! Thirty strokes of the cane is a light punishment!"
Wen Yu couldn't help laughing when she saw Liuchun getting angry like a lion protecting his cubs.
She leaned over and lifted the dancer's chin, and asked curiously, "Do I look like a Madonna?"
"So you think I won't do anything to you even if you bump into me or spy on my whereabouts?"
"You probably think that after I finish listening to you, I will rush to my brother and say, 'Do you still remember the dancer at the New Year's Day? She was so pitiful. You should go and pamper her.'"
Dancer: ...
"Whether the emperor's brother favors you or not is not my business. If you are just an assassin with bad intentions, then wouldn't I be harming the emperor's brother? Are you tired of being the eldest princess under the emperor and looking for excitement for yourself?"
The word "assassin" frightened the dancer and she crouched down again. She said tremblingly, "Princess, please forgive me. How could I be an assassin?"
Wen Yu looked at her round head and smiled, "You are really pretty, but unfortunately you are not very smart. Even I am not as smart as you. For the sake of your pretty face, I will reveal it today. It won't work next time."
"Liuchun, let's go." Wen Yu left leisurely.
The dancer lay on the ground, shivering, and it took her a long time to stand up.
She patted the snow on her skirt, looked at Wen Yu's gradually disappearing figure, narrowed her eyes, and a smile with an ambiguous meaning flashed across the corner of her mouth.
"I'm not very smart?" The dancer snorted and turned to leave Chengde Hall.
After returning to the harem, because she was sent to the emperor for entertainment and had no rank, her status in the Yunlu Palace was no different from that of a maid.
"Hey, Yan Xiu is back? You haven't seen him all day, so you really think you are the master?"
“Have you finished carrying the water that Shen Liangren asked you to carry?”
The dancer, Yan Xiu, glanced at the maids and returned to her room without paying any attention to them.
"Bah, what a jerk. You think you can be the master just because you have a face. You even dare to ask for a room alone!"
"Let's see how long she can stay aloof. His Majesty has long forgotten her. She can only dream of relying on her looks to gain power."
"Not to mention Mr. Shen, even the Concubine Shu would never allow such a shameless vixen to approach His Majesty. She wants to fly up to the branch? Think about it."
Yan Xiu closed the door, blocking out the chatter of the maids, and sat quietly in front of the dressing mirror, seemingly deep in thought.
After a moment, she touched the edge of her cheek, pinched out a layer of skin, and slowly pulled her hand apart, revealing a face that was 90% similar but more charming and delicate. The only difference was that there was a Adam's apple on the originally smooth neck.
With his Adam's apple rolling slightly, he took out another piece of dough from the locked drawer and put it on his face.
With a faint crackling sound, Yan Xiu's stature suddenly grew nearly ten centimeters taller, and her Adam's apple disappeared without a trace.
He changed into a green dress, changed his hairstyle, and slipped out of Yunlu Palace without anyone noticing.
The level of his Qinggong skills is breathtaking.
Wen Yu didn't know that the person she just let go was a cross-dressing man with a very high appearance, otherwise she would have jumped up.
At this moment, she was just about to go out and have some fun.
"Princess, are you going to look for Master Yue?"
"The one who understands me is Liuchun."
Wen Yu took a carriage and went straight to Yue Lingfeng's home. After so many days, it was time for him to think things through.
Willing or unwilling is just a matter of words.
Wen Yu didn't expect that she would come up empty-handed, as Yue Lingfeng was not at home at all.
Liu Chun asked, "Princess, will Master Yue be at the painting stall?"
The possibility was very high, so the two of them prepared to go to the painting stall to look for someone, but when they turned around, Yue Lingfeng was standing at the entrance of the alley.
He was holding three or four scrolls in his hands. He was dressed in green, had a tall and slender figure, and a handsome face, but there was still a familiar hint of illness between his brows.
When he saw Wen Yu turning around, the scroll in his hand suddenly fell to the ground.
"Miss……"
He murmured, seeming a little dazed.
Wen Yu walked forward and waved her hand in front of his eyes: "Why are you in a daze? Don't you recognize me?"
Yue Lingfeng came back to his senses, looked at Wen Yu deeply, and said softly: "I thought the young lady would not come to see me."
"Hmm?" Wen Yu was puzzled. "What do you mean? Also, you dropped your painting on the ground, why don't you pick it up?"
Yue Lingfeng shook his head: "Because I rejected the young lady last time, she has not come again for half a month. I thought she thought I was ungrateful and would never come again."
