[Blurb]
Chun Yuan is a servant girl at the House of Delights.
She is ugly, lowly, and timid, and people look down on and bully her at every turn.
In this world, only her older sister loves her and protects her.
But her wonderful sister was ambushed and murdered by villains.
The sun has vanished from Chun Yuan's sky forever.
Just then, Tang Shen Yu, the commander of the Northern Pacification Office, receives an imperial order to secretly search the House of Delights for a princess who has been lost among the common people.
The twenty-ninth day of the twelfth month. Snow falls thick and fast.
Chun Yuan kneels in front of Tang Shen Yu's carriage for half a day. Gazing at the peerlessly handsome man inside, she weeps and begs, "If you can avenge me, my lord, I'll work like an ox or a horse for you. I'll give you my life."
"Your life isn't worth much." Tang Shen Yu considers this, then lifts Chun Yuan's chin with his embroidered spring saber. One brow arches. "I can avenge you, and I can give you a new face, make you a peerless beauty. But you'll have to be my blade, impersonate the princess, and infiltrate the inner palace. One wrong step, and you'll be cut to pieces. Do you dare?"
Chun Yuan doesn't hesitate. "I do!"
Tang Shen Yu's gaze drops to the cinnabar mole, red as blood, on the inside of the girl's wrist. Smiling, he asks, "The real princess was a prostitute before she died, so you can't be a virgin either. I'll allow you to choose a man you like from the Northern Pacification Office to take that cinnabar mark away. Do you still dare?"
Chun Yuan panics. Then she suddenly looks up and stares at the man. "I do! But I choose you, my lord. Do you dare?"
