ZHAO JUREN'S LAST LOVE
CHAPTER 59. The Thousand Faces

"Thank you in the face, General Zhao . Don't humiliate yourself by looking down in front of a woman..."

Zhao Juren was stunned and without the need to really raise her face high she was already looking at Nan Luoxia. If he stood upright then his body was much taller than the female in front of him.

"Why don't you go? Didn't I tell you not to look for me?" This voice was Xue Xue's. Princess Nan Luoxia had abandoned her formal demeanor. The voice was clear and firm, Xue Xue who was well-known to Zhao Juren.

"Xue Xue's..." Zhao Juren couldn't hide her delight when she heard her name being called.

"Don't be happy first, I'm not sure you're not under the weight of your act of infiltrating Harem Nan's palace. If His Majesty finds out. It's a major offense. Men who are not members of the king's family should not set foot into the harem. Except for the special guards appointed by the king." Xue Xue frowned at those neatly arranged, black eyebrows. His round eyes squinted as if threatening Zhao Juren's actions.

"I'm sorry." Zhao Juren said, even though his apology was completely without regret. The corner of his interested lips made a smile line. Contrast with his words.

"At Yanzhi I'm sure, this rule is the same." Xue Xue in the look of the princess leaned her face.

"As long as the king doesn't know, of course it's not dangerous at all." Zhao Juren. His general soul strengthened nowhere when faced with Xue Xue.

"I could have reported you!"

"I'm sure you won't." Zhao Juren replied casually as she rolled up her wide sleeves.

"Why not? how can you be sure I won't tell your sister?"

"Because I knew you were Xue Xue."

"How do you know if Xue Xue is me?"

"I've known from the first moment I saw you that night getting off the train in front of the city hall. Princess Nan Luoxia that is you."

"You think that Xue Xue wouldn't dare to? I've obviously never pityed anyone in this world."

"I'm sure, Xue Xue won't waste three months caring for me in her room just to hand me over to her brother to hang."

Xue Xue could not help but laugh, hearing Zhao Juren's words.

"What kind of confidence is wavering just because I bully you a little? Even I could see the look in your eyes that hesitated when I said I was Nan Luoxia's daughter."

"I just want to see where you're trying to fool me. But what a difference, you are the daughter of Nan Luoxia or Xue Xue, after all I know very well you are the same person despite having a thousand faces." Zhao Juren, satisfied.

"Omong empty!" Xue Xue, aka Nan Luoxia, could not help but look at Zhao Juren who had misbehaved.

"I just know, those eyes are only owned by you, and my subconscious always remembers it even the peach scent of Tianshi's palace makes me unable to forget you." The next sentence was never uttered from Zhao Juren's lips. He just smiled a little. Didn't expect his heart to be this happy when dealing with Xue Xue.

"I acknowledge your courage to enter into Nan's palace, let alone enter the Harem palace environment of this forbidden king. I hope this kind of courage has a reason because if you bet wrongly then...."

"Then my head won't be on my neck anymore." Zhao Juren said quickly, Xue Xue nodded her head, trying not to smile. His eyes looked at Zhao Juren from top to bottom. He really felt amused by Zhao Juren's appearance in that servant's attire.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" The awkward Zhao Juren tried to look gallant. Just this time he felt so wrong in front of women.

"Just this time a general dressed as a woman." Finally Xue Xue chuckled as well.

Zhao Juren did not respond, even though she was in fact extremely embarrassed. At the curse of that Changyi, he had made his pride fall in front of a woman who had secretly caught his attention the past few times.

"I told you, don't look for me. That night I had a hard time driving you drunk back to your inn. It's a good thing the innkeeper recognized you when I dragged you from the riverbank."

"Mengeretku? " Zhao Juren glared at the thought of his body being dragged in a state of heavy drunkenness.

"Yes, that's it." Xue Xue smiled happily at Zhao Juren's sour face.

"Are you hoping I'm holding you? Your body was bigger than mine, so I had to drag you."

Zhao Juren was bearded, she was unsure of Xue Xue Xue's answer.

"But I'd rather you look like this, look more feminine and attractive than be fierce and clamor for a fight while brandishing a sword." Xue Xue sneered.

Zhao Juren shrugged her shoulders slightly, they spoke with no obstructions facing each other from earlier, like an old friend who was longing to meet, ignoring the cold shark fin soup in a porcelain bowl.

"I also like your current appearance, not being rude and always glaring in annoyance. Or it looks fierce and cold, making men lose the guts to face you." Zhao Juren returned Xue's gaze, this made her blush.

The sound of knocking on the main door, spread out the chatter of the two people,

"Your Highness the Princess..." Miss Bai Yueyin opened the door while glancing subtly at Zhao Juren who immediately acted out to be Ju'er's shy servant.

"What's wrong?" Xue Xue also straightened her body, acting as the graceful Nan Luoxia.

"Your Majesty sent a message if Your Majesty will be present at the Harem Palace Banquet, Your Majesty Nan has His Highness the Princess present as well."

"Why should I attend? am I not obliged to attend? This is a banquet that must be attended by his wives, right? I didn't follow him last year, didn't I?"

"Mr Princess, Your Majesty just ordered like that. The other princesses were also asked to attend, Your Majesty would like to announce something at the Harem palace banquet."

"Oh, huh? How important?"

"Mr Princess, I don't think we should question it. His Majesty king Nan doesn't like much debate."

"Then, prepare my best clothes, and don't forget you are also present beside me, Yueyin. Tonight I want you to wear brighter clothes instead of always wearing dark clothes like that."

"But..."

"I'm also like my brother, we don't like to be rebutted." Xue Xue chuckled but briefly glanced at Zhao Juren who was bowing deeply in the corner of the room.

"Will big brother Yuhuai be present as well?" Ask a little curious.

"I don't know about it" replied Yueyin in short.

"May I bring this servant too?" Suddenly Xue Xue pointed towards Zhao Juren who was instantly stunned. He felt his legs become tense.
