Knock... knock... knock...

The sound of a knock on the door immediately interrupted the dream of a pair of lovers who were still asleep in bed.

​​

They were Gu Yi and Fu Xie Lan.

Immediately the girl got out of bed, slightly corrected her messy appearance, and then walked over to the door to open it.

The door opened, Wan Lie and the others were standing there.

"What is it?" asked Fu Xie Lan.

"Xie Lan, you just woke up?" Xue Ning was shocked.

Fu Xie Lan just nodded in approval.

"What's the matter, Queen?" Gu Yi's hoarse voice sounded from inside the room. It left those standing there stunned to hear it.

As for Wan Lie, the young man stood on tiptoe and found a figure without a single thread being covered by a blanket. His forehead seemed to frown for a moment, then it returned to normal, and seconds later his smile grew.

"Xie Lan, tell the man over there to wake up immediately," Wan Lie said.

"Who is he?" Xue Ning asked curiously.

While Ju Xian, without even looking, the man already knew who Wan Lie was referring to.

Fu Xie Lan who heard Wan Lie's words immediately turned around and found Gu Yi who was still shirtless on her bed.

Immediately Fu Xie Lan cleared her throat to normalize her expression. This is not at all what they all think.

"Xie Lan gets ready, maybe some people will come to dress you up soon," Xue Ning said.

The girl didn't respond and instead looked confused.

"Today is your wedding day."

"Do you intend to get married or not?" Asked Wan Lie with sigh breath. Seeing the attitude of his parents made him slap his forehead right then and there.

Hearing this, Fu Xie Lan was slightly taken aback as if she had realized something and at that moment she immediately closed the door to her room.

Those who saw the girl's attitude gawked on the spot.

Why?

What happened?

"We'd better wait for her outside," said Wan Lie.

The Moon Pavilion had several rooms, so Wan Lie and the others stayed there. It's just that their rooms are a bit far apart.

As for Gu Yi, the King has given a room for him some distance away from where Fu Xie Lan was. It was arranged by the emperor himself.

However, it seems that or Fu Qing didn't friendly to Gu Yi at all. Because that man still came to Fu Xie Lan's room at night.

Wan Lie who started to move and had just taken three steps, the sound of the door opening was heard again.

Immediately they all turned to the source of the sound and froze on the spot as they saw the figure standing in front of the door.

It was Gu Yi, with the upper half wearing a women's suit.

The man stroked the nape of his neck for a moment, then cleared his throat and returned to normalize his expression, giving off a cold and sinister impression. Very different from the clothes attached to his body.

"It looks like that outfit..."

"Speak again and your body will be split in two," he said coldly to Wan Lie.

Immediately the young man covered his mouth, he wanted to burst out laughing in his place right then and there.

As for Gu Yi, the man walked casually past them.

All of this was because of Fu Xie Lan, the girl who had kicked him out moments ago after forcing him to cover his upper body with a dress that the girl had never worn.

Even though he had asked for one of her men's clothes, but Fu Xie Lan seemed very reluctant to give it. In exchange, the girl gave him a choice of many dresses. Solely just to cover his upper body. It was as if to Fu Xie Lan her men's clothes were more valuable than Gu Yi's pride.

In the end, instead of being shirtless, the man chose to obey the girl's words willingly. And this is what he looks like now.

Wan Lie, Ju Xian, and Xue Ning froze on the spot, even when the man had disappeared at the end of the hall, they didn't move at all.

"It seemed that he very loves Fu Xie Lan," Xue Ning muttered.

Without what the girl is saying, they all knew that Gu Yi had very deep feelings for Fu Xie Lan.

As for Wan Lie, don't ask anymore. Long before he was born, the two figures were already in love with each other.

Currently, re were only three of them, Xue Ying was still in his room, while Qiao and Lim, the two men were now Emperor Fu Qing's servants.

"Come on!" Wan Lie immediately walks from his position.

Only a few minutes later, and several young women came over, stepping closer to Fu Xie Lan's room.

From the appearances and the items they carried, everyone could tell that it was those women who would polish Fu Xie Lan.

***

Putting the crown as a final polish on Fu Xie Lan, the women wore happy smiles.

"You are very beautiful, Princess," said one of them.

"Thank you," the girl replied.

Hearing the reply of the daughter of the two women smiled warmly. Earlier when dressing the girl, the two of them found kissmark that were still a bit faint, but they managed to cover them up with a powder.

The two women knew what the sign was, and who was behind it. However, none of them brought it up or discussed it.

Just working quietly according to Emperor Fu Qing's orders. As for anything in their heads, they just keep it to themselves.

"I'm sure Master Gu Yi will be mesmerized by the appearance of the Princess," said one of them smiling shyly.

Fu Xie Lan only responded with a faint smile without the slightest sound.

"Princess will wear this?" asked the woman while showing her a light violet mask that matched the dress she was wearing. Slightly transparent with beaded decorations that adhere beautifully to the mask.

Fu Xie Lan shook her head, just for today, she wanted to appear perfect in front of her father, Emperor Fu Qing. No mask or other frills.

The place she was currently in was a human territory, so it was impossible for anyone to know the girl and hunt her down because she was a half-human, not because she couldn't fight back, it was just that Fu Xie Lan didn't want to add trouble.

While the previous reason she wore a mask when entering the Zu royal palace was to cover her face from the crowd. Because she firmly believed that perhaps some of them would recognize the face of this Zu kingdom's eldest daughter.

While now, all the residents have heard the news that the Princess is still alive.

Covering up, it's no use. So she decided to keep it away from her face today.

Yes, only for today.
