The first time Zhaohua met Yun Ji, she was nine years old.
Flowers bloomed among the trees, and grass grew lush as orioles flew.
Bai Yunji knelt in the hall. "I pay my respects to the princess."
Zhaohua opened her big eyes and studied her carefully. After a long while, she asked, "Oh! You're a girl, aren't you?"
Bai Yunji blushed.
If Chu Yue hadn't always favored male Qianyuan, she wouldn't have spent all this time disguised as a boy.
As one of Chu Yue's top Qianyuan guards, Bai Yunji was twelve when she was ordered to serve the most precious Kunze princess. She vowed to protect her for the rest of her life. But three years later, the Bai clan was framed, and the entire family was sentenced to death.
The proud, beautiful princess dressed in plain white and knelt day and night in Xuanzheng Hall, pleading for the Bai family. The emperor remained unmoved, and Yunji died in Zhaohua's arms.
Heaven and earth grieved. Zhaohua lost consciousness.
When she opened her eyes again, she was in a dilapidated temple. The faint sounds of strings and pipes drifted through the air. She stood up and saw a woman in red, clad in fine robes and exuding graceful charm.
"Yunji, "
She rushed toward her, trembling, and nearly fell off the opera stage.
The woman opposite her was equally flustered. "Who are you?"
Gu Chengyu, a rising young actor in a Suzhou opera troupe, had recently run into a troublesome situation. One day, while rehearsing on a newly built stage, she was getting into character when a woman suddenly rushed at her, hair disheveled and murmuring to herself.
She suspected the woman had come from nowhere. Again and again, she thought about reporting her to the local police station, but each time she lost her nerve.
As time went by, even her longtime partner noticed something was up and bluntly teased her, "Oh my, have you been bewitched by some little fox spirit?"
Gu Chengyu was baffled. How could she be a fox spirit? She was so beautiful.
Those limpid eyes fixed on her neck. The woman was soft as a cloud, with almond-shaped eyes and rosy cheeks. "Yunji, is your Xin Yin all right? After all these years, have you missed me?"
Gu Chengyu sucked in a sharp breath. Yunji? Yunji? Who the hell was this Yunji?
A flirtatious, alluring princess × a pure-hearted guard in her first life / a pretty young opera actor in her second life
