Three lines of iron rules are engraved on the stone tablet in front of Butiezhou Hall. The running script is elegant, carved with knives and axes, and has been eroded by hundreds of years of wind and rain. No one has ever dared to arrogate even a single point.
Lan Xi squatted under the stone monument, poking the cold surface of the monument with his fingertips, his face full of sorrow.
"The first rule is, don't give up halfway..." She counted on her hands, "I worked hard, really hard! I fell over the palace wall into the koi pond because the tiles were too slippery, I poisoned the icing by mistake for the crane's crown red because the candlelight was too dark, I ran into the princess's arms at night... That was purely an accident!"
"Article 2, you must not betray your employer..." After reading this, she sounded a bit proud. After all, no one even knew the name of her employer, so how could she betray him?
Article 3: Don't fall in love with your target.
Lan Yu let out a long sigh and took out the crumpled mission scroll from his arms. The handwriting written in gold powder is still dazzling: take the head of the eldest princess, and the reward will be ten thousand taels.
This is the seventh assassination order she has received from the same employer in six months.
Intention: Love must be magnanimous
