There was an itch in her ears, and Shen Wan came back to her senses, feeling more and more that the man's words sounded a bit wrong.

"It's not dark yet... Hey~"

"This is going to be dark!" Pulling away the straps that tied the bed curtains, Qi Yan lifted up the quilt and pulled the girl in with him.

*

The princess had specifically warned her. How dare the execution guards disobey her? They cut Cuiya with a "special care" attitude, and every cut made by the guards was extremely precise.

Don't hurt vital parts, don't move muscles and bones.

Having received more than a hundred cuts on her body, Cui Ya still couldn't breathe. She desperately wanted to beg for mercy from the guards, but she couldn't speak at all.

Hiding behind a tree trunk not far away, Bi Luo looked at his companion who was covered in blood and couldn't even pray for death. A lot of cold sweat had already broken out in his palms without realizing it.

Shen Wan has really changed, she has become cruel and ruthless, completely different from before. What will she do with herself if she discovers her betrayal?

The thick smell of blood drifted into her nostrils with the wind, and Bi Luo's stomach couldn't help but turn upside down.

Really unable to bear it and not daring to look any further, Bi Luo turned around and walked back. As soon as she took a step forward, she realized that her legs were actually a little weak.

Walking back to the room with a heavy heart, she closed the door, took out a jade pendant, turned it over in her hand.

During an autumn outing two years ago, Bi Luo and Yin Zhan accompanied Shen Wan out. Shen Wan was playful and always liked to run around by herself. She and Yin Zhan lost track of the person and then separated to look for her in a hurry.

But she accidentally stepped on the trap dug by the hunter. Just when she thought she was about to fall, a strong arm tightly wrapped around her waist and led her out of danger.

After landing and standing firm, she opened her eyes and saw the other person's handsome face close at hand. Bi Luo's heartbeat immediately became disordered.

"Are you OK?"

Until the man's gentle voice came from her ears, Bi Luo came back to her senses and hurriedly got up from the other man's arms.

After all, her identity was different. She took half a step back, bowed respectfully and said:

"This servant is here to see His Highness the First Prince. I accidentally offended His Highness. Please forgive me."

At that time, Emperor Wenxuan was still in power, who is today's father, and Qi Ye was not named king. He was the eldest son of Emperor Wenxuan.

"It's okay. As long as you didn't get hurt, you came out with Miss Shen. Where is your young lady? She got separated?"

"Yeah." Bi Luo nodded in response, frowning anxiously.

Realizing that the man's eyes had been looking at her right hand, Bi Luo lowered her eyes and realized that she was too nervous when she almost fell into the trap. After being hugged by him, she accidentally tore off the jade pendant from his waist.

"Yes...I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, slave," Bi Luo stammered in a panic, and raised her hand to hand the jade pendant to the man.

"It's okay, I don't have so many rules here, you don't have to be so formal." Qi Ye responded with a smile, but did not reach out to take the jade pendant. Seeing this, Bi Luo ventured to test:

"Your Highness, this jade is so beautiful. Your Highness wears it everywhere. It must have some special meaning. If it is not convenient for Your Highness, how about my servant help you put it on again?"

"It's been torn off. I'm afraid it will be difficult to hang it back up. Since you like it, I'll give it to you." Qi Ye took the words very naturally.

"This, this is too valuable, I will never dare to accept it." Bi Luo looked up at the man in flattery.

"It's just an ordinary piece of jade. It has no special meaning. If you pull it off, it means you are destined to it. Keep it."

"Thank you, Your Highness. I would rather obey my orders than to be respectful." No longer refusing, Bi Luo felt blessed and happily put the jade pendant into her sleeves.

"By the way," Qi Ye changed the subject, "You just said you were separated from your lady. The roads here are all mountainous and difficult to walk. Let me help you find her!"

"Would it be too much trouble for Your Highness?" Bi Luo asked uncertainly.

"No, I'm just a idle prince. I don't have much to do on weekdays. I have a lot of leisure time, so I just take a walk and visit the Qiu Mountains."

"That's great, thank you Your Highness."

Before meeting Qi Ye, Bi Luo had never thought that a prince could be so easy-going and so gentle to her as a maid.

At the age when love first emerged, Qi Ye's every word and every move were fatally attractive to Bi Luo, and she couldn't help but fall in love with him.

But she knew that she was from a lowly background and was not qualified to marry a prince.

After learning about Qi Ye's intention to marry Shen Wan, she tried her best to turn a deaf ear in front of the girl.

When Shen Wan went out and was kidnapped by bandits, she was rescued by a young man. After returning, Shen Wan couldn't wait to tell her and Yin Zhan her story, without concealing her admiration for the young man in her words.

Shen Wan said that she was drugged and did not see the boy's appearance clearly. In a daze, she only remembered that there was a crescent-shaped birthmark on the man's wrist.

She also specially took a pen and paper and drew the birthmark.

Firstly, she said she was afraid that over time, she would forget the specific appearance of the birthmark, and secondly, she wanted her and Yinzhan to help pay attention to it.

The youngest daughter's family was always shy, so the only people who knew about it were the three of them, the master and the servant.

Bi Luo was originally tight-lipped, but after meeting Qi Ye,

In order to help him realize his wish, she quietly told him the story of Shen Wan being saved by a young hero.

He also gave him a copy of the birthmark and suggested that he forge an identical birthmark on his arm.

In this way, as long as a man finds a suitable opportunity and "inadvertently" exposes his birthmark in front of Shen Wan, he can capture her heart easily without doing anything at all.
