Junxu remained silent, narrowing his eyes and looking at Shenda. Shenda sighed
‘Tongluo will definitely want my head, I can’t escape it.’
Shenda reached out and took off the pendant around his neck and hung it around Junxu’s neck
‘This is a keepsake my mother Shen Yao gave me, you wear it. Junxu, I want your face, from now on you are me.’
Junxu opened his mouth wide
‘No way!’
Shenda smiled
‘You’re clever! But you owe someone a favour! Are you not going to repay it?‘
’Oh? I don’t know what favour I owe you.‘
’You owe Jing Sa. Jing Sa begged me to take you in and treat you well, and she knelt for a whole day to beg me, and she even pledged her life as collateral. You owe her your life, don’t you?‘
Junxu is silent
’Why do you trust me?‘
’When there’s no other way, you just have to trust your instincts. I want you to destroy the Tong family for me!’
Jun Xu narrowed her eyes, and Shen Da winked
‘I also want you…to help me ascend the throne of the Daiyue Kingdom!’
‘Are you crazy?!’
‘A little, but I can’t do it, otherwise I wouldn’t have to resort to someone else.’
Jun Xu’s head was sweating
‘I can die for you, but you…do it yourself?’
Shen Da snorted
‘Do you think Tonglu is an idiot? She is known for being watertight!‘
Junxu frowned, and Shenda fed her a pill
’It will keep you safe for three days, Junxu, so why don’t you do it?”
Junxu closed her eyes, sighed, and drew her sword and slashed it across her face. She thought that was the end of her life, but she ended up meeting a lunatic…
A face for a life, is that a bargain?
Yizhou City was destroyed, and the lord and the garrison commander were both beheaded. Their heads were displayed in the general’s camp at the Qin border for three days before being transported to the capital. The reckless actions of the seventh princess left her body unrecovered.
In the capital, she was known as someone who was good for nothing. Marshal Tong Luo of the Tong family was given the title of king, and General Tong Li, the vanguard general, was additionally given the title of Pingyang marquis. They made a fortune.
This would have been the end of the matter, but no one knew that Shen Da, the only son of Shen Yao, the current king of Da Yue, and lord of Yizhou City, had not died and returned. It was only rumoured that his appearance was ruined and he wore a mask all day long. The emperor of Da Yue was furious, but in view of the frail health of the current crown prince, he wanted to keep this sole royal bloodline as a backup, so he only had her feet bound and punished her for three years.
