"I'm not very skilled, so I can't compare to you sisters... Please don't make fun of me."

"No way, how could we!" Lin Yiqing said, putting on an appearance of deep sisterly affection, but her mind was calculating, and only she knew the feeling.

Ye Yunzi's eyes lightly swept over Jiaojiao, and saw her lowering her head and smiling, her cheeks flushed, looking innocent and naive, as if she was really not prepared for anything.

But don't forget, Jiaojiao's scheming is as deep as the sea. Acting is as natural to her as drinking water. How could she embarrass herself in such an occasion?

Jiaojiao mustered up her courage and said, "I have practiced a piece of 'Stunning Dance'. If possible... I hope someone can accompany me."

"Someone, call the musician." Su Yu nodded and gave the order.

The piano music rose up, and the exciting melody rippled in the air. Under the expectant gaze of everyone, Jiaojiao turned lightly, her tulle skirt swaying in the wind, and her graceful figure instantly locked everyone's attention.

Her dancing steps are so precise that it takes years of hard practice to achieve this.

Lin Yiqing secretly clenched her fists. She had never expected Jiaojiao to be able to do this.

At the end of the song, Jiaojiao stopped dancing and bowed with a smile: "Excuse me for my poor performance. Compared with your talents, I am far behind." Although she said so, her "Jinghong Dance" was already stunning. Her humble words were just a courtesy and no one would take them seriously.

Su Yu frowned slightly and looked at Lin Yiqing: "Your sister is really not simple."

"Yeah... I didn't expect that either." Lin Yiqing looked a little embarrassed, as Jiaojiao had stolen the limelight!

Her dancing posture amazed the young men in the pavilion, and they all speculated who the woman dancing like a fairy was.

"That is Lin Fu Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao."

"I thought she was a beauty the last time I saw her, but I didn't expect her dancing skills were so outstanding!"

For a moment, voices of praise rose everywhere. The dancing posture was indeed breathtaking, and even the dancers in ordinary dance studios could hardly reach it.

Everyone was marveling at the sight, but there was one person who just stared straight ahead, gazing quietly into the distance, oblivious to the beauties and scenery around him.

"Si Yan, this "Jinghong Dance" doesn't catch your eye?" The man said as he picked up the pot and filled a glass of wine for Shen Si Yan.

Shen Siyan came back to his senses and smiled calmly: "Not bad."

The short and perfunctory words clearly did not catch his eye.

"Your Highness the Seventh Prince is having fun in this Marquis's mansion, aren't you afraid of causing trouble?" Shen Siyan raised his eyebrows and looked at the man, who had a cynical smile on his face.

"Why not? You're already here, so why should I be absent? It's been a while since we two brothers have had a toast and a chat. Come on!"

The two of them drank together, and no one dared to approach the stone table because of their extraordinary identities.

One is the honorable seventh prince Baili Yan, and the other is Shen Siyan, the head of the Shen family in the capital. He is a recognized handsome man in the capital, and his beauty is enough to make the bright moonlight hide behind the clouds in shame.

His face was as gentle as jade, his features were delicate, his deep eyes were black and white, as if he could see into people's hearts, and there was a kind of detached and free and easy air in the faint smile on his lips.

It was precisely because of his good looks and outstanding talent that he was deeply favored by the emperor. He had frequently been in and out of the palace since he was a child and had a close friendship with the princes.

The emperor doted on the emperor and granted almost every request as long as it was not excessive. He was never stingy with rewards, which made other noble children envious and jealous.

"The 'Stunning Dance' is indeed quite impressive..."

The Seventh Prince was still reminiscing about the scene, and the woman's dancing posture seemed to still appear before his eyes. "The fourth young lady of the Lin Mansion, Jiaojiao? Why haven't I heard of her before?"

Someone nearby explained, "She is the daughter of the new concubine. It is said that she has been wandering outside for many years. She was found a few days ago, and Master Lin took the mother and daughter back to the Lin Mansion." The Seventh Prince nodded and whispered, "So she is a daughter born out of wedlock..."

"really."

Just as he finished speaking, a drumbeat suddenly sounded.

"What is this performance?"

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Normally, there were mostly musical instruments such as zithers, harps, flutes and pipes, but the sudden and rapid drumbeats left everyone confused.

Shen Siyan also looked over there, and once he did, he couldn't look away.

Behind the tulle stood a woman, tall and well-proportioned, with more heroism and capability than an ordinary woman.

Just then a gust of wind blew by, gently lifting the veil, and the woman's face gradually appeared.

The woman was wearing a silver-white long dress. Under the sunlight, her skin looked particularly delicate and refined, as if she was a fairy from heaven.

Her eyes seemed to have come out of a painting, with a hint of coldness and distance in them. She lowered her eyes slightly, as if to draw a clear line between herself and the world. Everyone stared blankly at the beautiful face that was revealed for a moment. When the veil fell again, covering the vague face, it left a deep impression on people and was unforgettable.

"What a beauty... Just like the rare snow lotus on the Tianshan Mountains."

"That glance just now felt like a fairy who had strayed into the human world." Some men couldn't help but sigh, their gazes lingering for a long time, unwilling to leave.

Shen Siyan's eyes also rippled. He was usually calm, but at this moment, he underwent subtle changes because of this woman.

"Ye Yunzi..." he muttered in a low voice.

Ye Yunzi, from the first time he saw her, Shen Siyan felt that she was an extremely beautiful woman, and her beauty was not only in her appearance, but also in her kind heart. His eyes were firmly attracted and he was unwilling to look away.

"Ye Yunzi...Yunzi..." He whispered repeatedly, as if he wanted to engrave this name into his heart.

At the same time, the floodgates of memory were quietly opened, and scenes from the past flashed through my mind.

Ye Yunzi, we have indeed met.

It was not in the backyard of the Lin residence, nor was it any other ordinary place... That day, pain and heartbeat coexisted, and it was unforgettable.

The corners of Shen Siyan's mouth curled up, revealing a gentle smile. That smile was as warm as the ice and snow melting in spring, and it seemed to warm people's hearts.

He quietly touched his chest, where he seemed to still feel the pain of the past, as if a knife was piercing his heart and stirring cruelly, trying to dig his heart out, causing him excruciating pain.

At that time, his blood was almost drained out, and he was not declared dead until the last moment of his life.

He thought he was dead.

But when he opened his eyes again, he found that he was still alive and well, and he had returned to the time seven years ago when everything had not yet begun!

He was Shen Siyan, the distinguished head of the Shen family, and that man... was just a prince at that time!

……

Shen Siyan was a loyal guy, so loyal that when he saw that his own Shen clan was planning to rebel, he made up his mind to destroy his mother's clan with his own hands. Since then, he has become the dreaded "King of Hell".

He froze all the hardships he had experienced and wholeheartedly assisted the Fourth Prince Baili Ye in ascending the throne, making him the emperor above all others.
