King Li Yan's favorite musician Wang Fu'er was wearing a tight-fitting Hu's garland skirt and was spinning rapidly on the stage. Her movement was called "Hu Ge's Eighteen Rotations". It was introduced from the Western Regions to the Central Plains. She danced wearing a tight and thin Hu's garland skirt, dragging her long colorful sleeves, hitting the ground with one toe, and her body rotated rapidly. At the same time, she made the action of a goddess scattering flowers with her hands.

This set of dances combines the strength, freedom and freedom of Hu dance and the gentleness of Han dance, and the posture is very graceful. If combined with the magnificent dance dress and the sloping blue smoke on the background, it looks like a fairy descending to earth from a distance, which is amazing.

Because of this, the "Hu Ge Eighteen Rotations" is very popular in the brothels of Chang'an Qushe, but because this set of movement is too difficult, ordinary dancers can only spin thirteen or four times in one breath. Even those popular gold medal dancers can't help but turn 18 times, and they can't help but blush and pant.

But Wang Fu'er could turn fifty-four times without blushing or breathing. This is exactly what made King An Li Rong fascinated with her. Li Yan's mansion faced each other across the street from Li Rong's mansion in the northwest corner of the Sixteenth House. Li Yan likes to play, and Li Rong also likes to play. At this point, the two brothers can be called like friends.

"Emperor, my elder brother, Miss Fu'er is nineteen years old this year." Li Rong walked staggeringly to Li Yan with a jade cup. He has always been very interested in the age of a woman, especially the stunning beauty who makes him fascinated.

"Drink, drink." Li Yan interrupted him bluntly. Today is Wang Fuer's 18th birthday. Li Yan specially prepared a banquet for her to celebrate. Li Rong came uninvited and turned against him. He also forced the birthday boy to dance on the spot. This made Li Yan feel quite unhappy and his face was gloomy.

The understanding Wang Fu'er didn't make him feel embarrassed at all. She danced a soothing and light green dance, which won Li Rong's loud cheers, and had no choice but to dance another Hu dance. Li Rong still felt that he was still in full swing, so he suggested that she dance "Hu Ge Eighteen Rotations". Li Yan's face suddenly fell down.

He stood up "rubbed" and was about to do it. Wang Fu'er quickly persuaded him. Fortunately, Li Rong didn't drink much, and after drinking a few glasses of wine, he was already dizzy and could not tell the difference between the east, south, west and north. He didn't realize Li Yan's unfriendliness at all.

Wang Fu'er began to perform "Hu Ge's Eighteen Rotations", and stopped after finishing the eighteen Rotations.

"Why don't you jump? It's not yet eighteen laps, I'll count it for you." Li Rong laughed and stood up and walked towards Wang Fu'er.

"King An is drunk, please help your master go back and rest." Li Yan finally issued the order to expel guests with a gloomy face.

The housekeeper of the Prince An also felt that Li Rong's move was really inappropriate, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support Li Rong and persuaded: "Your Highness, it's getting late, so let's go back and rest."

"How old are you this year? Tell me, I'll leave immediately." Li Rong struggled desperately, but his efforts seemed futile in front of the tall and powerful team.

Li Yan snorted coldly, pulled Wang Fu'er, who was at a loss, and walked into the back hall.

"It doesn't matter if you don't tell me, it doesn't matter. I will know sooner or later." Li Rong shouted unrestrainedly at Wang Fuer's gentle and graceful figure.

"Why did your highness ruin the friendship between brothers and sisters because of his servants?" Wang Fu'er followed Li Yan into the inner hall. Seeing Li Yan's gloomy face and depressed, she took the tea served by her maid and brought it to Li Yan, and persuaded her with gentle words.

"Brother-foot friendship?" Li Yan angrily pushed away Wang Fuer's tea, "How come he has brother-foot friendship in his eyes? No matter what, he will not do that to you."

His heart was getting hotter and stronger. He asked Wang Fu'er with a red face, "You said, why are you so accommodating to him? I winked you several times and told you to ignore him, why do you dance for him again and again?"

Wang Fu'er smiled and didn't care about him. She knew Li Yan's temper very well. She always looked like a person in front of others. When they were alone, they looked like a teenager, and often felt a little upset over a few small things.

"I know I am wrong, so I will not dare to do it next time." Wang Fu'er put down the tea bowl, sat behind Li Yan, and gently stroked his back, "Actually, I am mainly dancing for you." After hearing this, Li Yan turned his worries into joy. He grabbed Wang Fu'er's hand: "In short, I can't see you being kind to other men, you can only have me in your heart."

Wang Fu'er nodded with a smile, "No, I want you to say it." Li Yan pinched Wang Fu'er's cheek.

"I swear that there is only His Highness in my heart in this life, and I will never give up on my life and death."

Li Yan laughed and took Wang Fu'er into his arms...

The moonlight spread in front of the bed through the window lattice. The exhausted Li Yan sounded a slight snoring sound. Wang Fu'er didn't sleep. She looked at the man who was sleeping with her bed with her. His face was angular, handsome and charming, and his eyes were bright. Although his voice had not yet taken away from the young man's astringent astringent, he had already become as deep as an adult man. In front of others or in formal occasions, this man had already acted like a man who stood up.

Wang Fu'er gently stroked Li Yan who was sleeping, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth that was not easy to detect.

Suddenly, a silver light broke through the window, walked through the gauze brocade tent, and headed straight for Li Yan's right eye. Wang Fu'er reached out to block the silver light, his movements as fast as lightning.

This is a very exquisite small silver knife, which is only one inch or two long and a few feet wide. However, the blade and swallowing mouth are clearly divided, and even the golden thread wrapped around the hilt and the red tassel on the tail of the hilt ring are clearly visible. Wang Fu'er hid the small silver knife in her sleeve, gently got out of the bed, pushed the window and turned out the bedroom hall. The maid guarding the door did not notice at all.

The Ying Palace does not cover a large area and the buildings are not luxurious. Wang Fu'er has been in the mansion for two years and knows everything about the grass and trees here. She easily avoided the attendants who were patrolling the night and walked into the small garden in the northwest corner of the palace. It was late at night and the small garden was empty and deserted. As usual, the door to enter and exit was locked by the housekeeper and the guards when the curfew started in Chang'an City, and opened it the next morning.

Wang Fu'er didn't need to go through the door. She walked to the front of the door, stopped, looked around, and confirmed that nothing was wrong. She bent her legs and bowed her body, and jumped over the wall.

In the pavilion beside the lotus pond in the small garden, a masked woman in brocade clothes stands, with a long and graceful posture. She has a short sword in her waist and a horizontal knife in her hand.

"Fu'er, see my elder sister." Wang Fu'er respectfully bowed. The masked man turned around and sneered: "Your skills are not as fast as before, so this is not good."

"Fu'er knew that she was wrong and would practice hard in the future. I wonder what advice would my elder sister summon Fu'er late at night? Is there any instructions there?"

"The seat is dead, don't you know?"

"Ah, how did he die?"

"If you do something bad, let the fairy kill you." The masked man raised his hand and hung a white jade token on her fingers. "The fairy has an order, and I will take the post as a temporary seat."

Wang Fu'er hurriedly knelt down and said, "Wang Fu'er visited the new seat and congratulated the eldest sister on her promotion."

The masked man received the token, suddenly laughed "puffed" and pulled off the mask. She reached out and helped Wang Fuer up and said with a smile: "I really can't stand this set of mediocre etiquette, but you can always bear it."

Wang Fu'er also smiled, "Since it is the rule set by the fairy, we must abide by it. Are there any important things you come to see me this time?" The two of them said, holding hands and sitting down opposite them.

"The fairy girl has an order and the plan is cancelled. No one is allowed to participate in the dispute in the Daming Palace. Violators will be sentenced to death."

"How did this... suddenly become like this? We have already collected Li Xun's money. If we break the appointment, we have to compensate him ten times, which is two million taels of silver! Why did the fairy do this?"

The masked woman shook her head: "How could I guess the fairy's thoughts? But the fairy's eyes have always been very poisonous. Maybe she will lose when she sees Li Xun this time."

Wang Fu'er nodded: "That's right, this fact is too much involved. If you bet wrong, it's not just a matter of accompanying some money." The masked woman said: "If we don't talk about these things, we'll finally meet each other and say whether we're tired of these things. Tell me, I think you've been moved by him. Is he good to you?"

Wang Fu'er smiled slightly, walked out of the pavilion and walked to a rose flower, "I don't know. The fairy asked me to hide beside him, saying that it might take ten or twenty years. I think it would be necessary to stay for so long. If I don't have some thoughts, he will inevitably see the flaws, so he took some scheming... Now, I don't know if I'm trapped in."

She pulled off a few rose leaves and gently twisted them on her fingertips. The juice in the leaves was squeezed dry and turned into a small ball.

"If it's really difficult, I will advise the fairy and transfer you to leave here." The masked woman said earnestly.

Wang Fu'er shook her head blankly, bounced out the small ball on her fingertips, and asked the masked woman in turn: "What are your plans?"

The masked woman hugged her arms, bit her lips and thought for a while, and said, "I'm still seven big things to redeem myself. By then, I'm afraid I'm over thirty years old. People are old and have a weaker temperament, and their youth will no longer be... I'll find someone who can marry me, and I'll be my whole life."

"Sister is a rare trip to Chang'an. Stay for a few more days so we can get together."

"No, I have something to do, I'm going to kill someone."

Wang Fu'er smiled: "Who is worthy of the 'Mosha's' to take action personally? Qiu Shiliang? The prime minister of the dynasty? Or the emperor?"

"None are not, a little person, Yang Hao, the son of the Marquis of Xining!"

"Have he returned Li Xun's money? Did you take Qiu Shiliang's money again? No, he has always been incompatible with the fairy."

"Don't guess it, this is a personal grudge. In fact, I should have come to kill him long ago." The masked woman showed murderous intent.

"He is now in the Tai Chi Palace Massage Courtyard, where the place is very vigilant. I'll send someone to guide my sister."

"No need, I can find him." The masked man suddenly lowered his head with a little discouraged look when he said this. "Fu'er, somehow, I always feel that I can't kill him."

"If my elder sister wants to kill you, you will definitely be able to kill you unless..." Wang Fu'er smiled and said word by word: "You have a private relationship."

1 Sixteen Houses: In the early Tang Dynasty, the princes had fiefdoms, and after the founding of the palace, they moved to the fiefdoms to live. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang stipulated that all kings must live in the capital. In the 13th year of Kaiyuan, a large mansion was repaired east of Anguo Temple (located in Changlefang), divided into ten courtyards, named "Ten Kings House", and lived with the titles of the titles of the kings. The name of "Sixteen Houses" came from this.
