It was true that the private room was luxurious. Gold was painted, silver was the roof tiles, colored glass was the corner of the table, jade ware was the bowls and cups. Even with this kind of extravagance, the master who made the arrangements did not seem to think it was enough. He took out several pieces of brocade and placed them in the private room. At first glance, it was really a splendid place, dazzling the eyes and dazzling the mind.
/p
On the side, Qiao Qiao happily asked me: "Miss, do you like it?"
/p
With great difficulty, I squeezed out two words from between my teeth: "I … like …" Actually, I didn't care much about the colorful decorations here. But when I thought about how many colors there were and how much silver there was, I couldn't help but like it.
/p
As if Qiao Qiao still didn't think it was enough, she pulled my hand and had me look at the lamp on the table. When the lamp cover was removed, whoa, there was another shining pearl. But this one had a strong smell of blood. I glanced at her. She seemed to misunderstand that I was asking for an explanation. Happily, she replied: "This is my family's specialty. It's a mermaid …"
/p
On the other side, Prince Yue, who had been ignored, seemed to have his tail stepped on. Suddenly, he shouted: "Withdraw!"
/p
Both Qiao Qiao and I were caught off guard by this cold shout. We both saluted him and replied, "Yes." However, Qiao Qiao seemed to be a bit more afraid than I was. Her delicate body was already trembling.
/p
Qiao Qiao saluted and withdrew. I also wanted to withdraw so that I could take a leisurely stroll elsewhere. Who knew that Prince Yue would reach out and block my path. His voice sounded as if he didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I'm not telling you to leave."
/p
If he didn't want me to leave, then so be it. I randomly picked an embroidered stool and sat down. At the side of the room, there was a small room with a small table and a soft couch. I saw Prince Yue naturally kneel on the soft couch. His face behind the white veil turned to me first, then to the seat across from him. Very conscientiously, I obediently sat on the seat and asked: "What orders does Your Highness have for me?"
/p
"I want you to sit on the same level as this Prince," he said, "but I don't want you to be this Prince's servant."
/p
I replied, "Everyone under the heavens is a servant of the imperial family. As a descendant of the heavens, Your Highness naturally has the confidence to treat everyone under the heavens as servants."
/p
"The people of the world are the people of the world, and you are you. You don't have to treat yourself as a servant. This king will not order you to be a servant."
/p
I rolled my eyes./
/p
"Furthermore," Wang Ye's hand, which was covered in leather, reached for the white jade teacup and slowly took a sip. His movements were so slow that it made my heart jump. "Furthermore, I see that you do not have the self-awareness of being a servant."
/p
I righteously said, "Your Highness, are you saying that I am disloyal to the imperial family? If I have done anything to provoke your highness into thinking this way, then I will definitely offend you and deserve to die ten thousand times! "
/p
The prince stared blankly. The heavens took pity on him. The dignified prince had already been stunned by my words twice today. Then he smiled. Behind the veil, he held his forehead and couldn't help but say to me, "You are the most familiar with this kind of trick."
/p
I modestly said, "I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare." The subject of servant stopped there.
/p
Suddenly, there was a burst of loud cheers from outside. Each wave was louder than the last. The cheers seemed to be able to blow a hole in the roof. I couldn't help but look towards the nearest window.
/p
"You like excitement?"
/p
I replied, "I like excitement in other people, but I really don't like it when it happens to me."
/p
Prince Yue nodded in understanding. Suddenly, he waved his sleeves. There was the sound of something being torn apart. Three of the walls of the separate rooms suddenly collapsed. There was a crystal chandelier in the main hall of the building. The resplendent light from the chandelier shone into my eyes, causing me to be dazed for a long time.
/p
I heard someone yell, "The distinguished guest of the first room of the heavens, open ~"
/p
I heard a faint exclamation from below. I asked the prince beside me, "What is going on?"
/p
"Calling a room. The guests of the heavens are all genuine distinguished guests. There is a waiter in the building who calls the rooms. On one hand, it makes the restaurant seem noble. On the other hand, it caters to the guests' glory."
/p
Let me think, what glory is there in this? I couldn't wait to jump off the soft couch and hide inside.
/p
"There is gauze all around. It is made of silk mixed with gold thread. We can enjoy the singing and dancing below, but the people below can't see anything happening in our room. Don't worry."
/p
I glanced at him. This Wangye was truly a master at reading minds. Whatever doubts I had in my heart, he was able to solve them.
/p
"The distinguished guest of the second room of the heavens, open ~"
/p
"The distinguished guest of the first room of the earth, open ~"
/p
Hearing the cheers and applause from below, I couldn't help but poke my head out to take a look. The whole building was like an altar, with a circular wooden platform in the middle, and a ring of clear water around it for the guests. But this building wasn't very high. I counted that there were no more than five floors, and the 'Sky' rooms were on the top fifth floor, facing the north and facing the south.
/p
My eyesight was good. Even though it was so far away and there was a layer of gauze, I could still see the patterns on the wooden platform clearly. It was carefully carved and realistic. It seemed to be a tribal totem with a long history. There was a strong sense of history. It suppressed the extravagant singing and dancing.
/p
I praised, "This stage is good. It makes people feel comfortable."
/p
The prince turned his head and looked at me. He didn't say anything.
/p
The surrounding lights suddenly dimmed, and only the bright gemstones hanging from the bodies of the guests could be seen. They were piled up in clusters, and it was as if they could really blind one's eyes. Suddenly, a few clusters of candles lit up on the edge of the first floor. A few women wearing gauze stepped on the dim candlelight and floated to the stage. They surrounded a girl holding a pipa.
/p
The pipa woman had a flying immortal hairstyle, and the ornaments on her hair looked even heavier than the clothes on her body. Fortunately, she had a good face, otherwise, she wouldn't be able to support such an ugly pile of gorgeous hair ornaments.
/p
I couldn't help but laugh. I asked the person next to me, "This building, this style, was it designed by you?"
/p
If it was really this prince's work, then I have to reconsider my judgment of him.
/p
Prince Yue was noble and elegant. He lightly replied to me, "No."
/p
"Then this girl," I chuckled, "has a unique style with heavy makeup."
/p
Prince Yue's voice sounded very awkward. It was as if he was deliberately explaining, "This girl isn't a girl from this building. This prince has always wanted to surround this place with elegance. Naturally, I wouldn't allow her to dress so ostentatiously."
/p
"Then what's the matter with this girl?"
/p
Prince Yue said, "This prince will find someone to give you an explanation."
/p
It looks like he's going to find someone to take the blame. This foolish prince, he didn't even think about it. With his status, why would he need to explain himself to me, a girl who's about to become his wife, on an equal footing? If he liked this style, then he liked this style. He just had to admit it.
/p
I was just having a few words contest with Prince Yue, but suddenly there was a commotion below. There were a few boasting, a few whistles, and a few roars of laughter. I'm afraid it's not going to be a good show. I hurriedly poked my head out to take a look. There was still a lot of chattering below. When I calmed down, I unexpectedly saw a snow-white bird.
/p
This girl, this girl only left on her outer muslin clothes. She flung her inner clothes out of her reach. The snow-white snow mountain towered in the middle. I couldn't tell how deep the ravine was. Looking at it made me happy. I couldn't help but feel hot blood rushing to my head. I couldn't help but want to whistle a few times with the guests below.
/p
Perhaps because I had poked my head out too much, Prince Yue dropped his teacup and got up to pull me back. His voice was low, and I didn't know where he was, but I heard someone in the air quickly reply with a "Yes", and then it was quiet again.
/p
Prince Yue placed my body on the soft couch, straightened my face, and forced me to look at him. But after looking at him for a long time, I could only see the white veil that covered his entire face. It swayed and scratched my face, making it itchy. I propped myself up with both hands, but I couldn't move to remove the unbearable muslin. I could only pout and blow it away from my face.
/p
There were sounds of sighs downstairs. I didn't know what had happened.
/p
Prince Yue suddenly straightened his body and moved away from me. I didn't know what had happened either.
/p
I fixed my eyes on him and saw his chest heaving up and down violently. The muslin fluttered back and forth because of his heavy breath. He didn't speak. I didn't dare to speak either. The atmosphere was so awkward that it felt like water could be squeezed out of it.
/p
After a long time, Prince Yue finally opened his mouth: "Why do you like these strange hobbies?"
/p
Eh? I thought about it seriously and felt that he was talking about the dancer who was performing the erotic dance on the stage downstairs. I helplessly replied, "Your Highness brought me here to look for entertainment. I also looked for entertainment according to the program Your Highness arranged. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. How can you say that I have a strange hobby?"
/p
Downstairs, there was no more drumming, cheerful and intense music. Instead, it was replaced by the soft and long melody of the guzheng. It was unknown whether the people under the stage had extinguished the fire of lust or not, but there was no movement at all.
/p
Prince Yue said: "I didn't arrange the first dance. If it was the fault of the servants …"
/p
Alarm bells rang in my head. Prince Yue wasn't a brainless prince who didn't know how to control people. On the contrary, from his nannies to his manservants, he trained them to be loyal and devoted. How could there be a servant who didn't arrange a dance according to his master's preferences? Losing trust was a small matter, but losing one's head was a big matter.
/p
His Highness's words came to an abrupt end. It seemed that he had also figured out what was wrong.
/p
We looked at each other. I asked, "Who's after you this time?"
/p
What a hateful person.
/p
He took out a black mask from his bosom and fiddled with it under the muslin of his bonnet. Then, he waved his hand and threw the mask away. He was wearing a long black robe. His body was tall and slender. He looked valiant and formidable. He was much more pleasing to the eye than when he wore the mask.
