Before the night fell, it was already snowing. I sat under the window, propped my left elbow on the window sill and held half of my face, staring at the several plum trees in the courtyard.The brightly blooming plum blossoms are my favorite, but I have no intention of viewing them, because only half a month later, the urging flower note came to me again.

"Call Gongsun to return to Chang'an as soon as possible."

"Sister, what's the matter with you?"

"It's nothing."

I took a few deep breaths, freeing myself from the loneliness and sadness I had felt before.In fact, the weather here is not too cold, it can be called warm compared to the winters I have experienced before. I even feel hot when I wear flared pants and a shirt.

"Little Twelve, go and issue a notice immediately, saying that Hongxiu Zhao will not accept any more commissions within half a month. Xiaohu will ask you first, and you tell him that I will come back to see him the next day."

"Yes! Leave it to me!"

The lively little girl skipped and jumped away. I breathed a long sigh of relief, stood up from the stool, pushed the door and walked along the corridor to the tunnel dug in the backyard. The tunnel leads to the Yaotianyuan base in Chang'an. It only takes half a day to get there.

Walking through the corridor, I was still wondering if I should bring something more. It is only half a month since Master summoned me last time. It is unlikely that I will be short of money. Could it be that I am required to perform some tasks, or it may be that I am staying for a few days. sky?Let's write a record first!

Running back to the room, I searched all the corners, but I still couldn't find my diary.

Eight years ago, I was brought here by an unscrupulous system and became Gongsunli, one of the only survivors of the Gongsun family, along with my infant younger sister, Xiao Shier.Unfortunately, this system threw me a diary, and then left me, who was only nine years old at the time, to play and disappeared.

Because I didn't know anything, I suffered a lot in this strange world. Fortunately, Ming Shiyin, a peony alchemist who was traveling abroad at that time, brought me back to Yaotian and accepted me as his apprentice. He led Changlefang and Hongxiuzhao to do something for him, and also worked hard to learn all the skills that can protect himself.

This world has indeed subverted my cognition - not only human beings, but also monsters, but most people discriminate against monsters.I, Gongsunli, am an intermediate existence—because I am a half-devil with the blood of a rabbit demon.

Over the years, I have learned to hide my rabbit ears and fur, and I have also learned how to fencing under the guidance of my master.On the surface, you might think that the umbrella I'm holding is a weapon, but don't underestimate the ribbon I'm wearing around my waist. When it's untied, it's actually my secondary weapon.

"I hope I'm not late."

Instead of looking for my diary, I turned into a rabbit body and ran quickly in the tunnel without using demon power.Because I was worried that Master would ask me to take on a task, and it would be difficult for me to complete it.In fact, his heart is also very good. He does not discriminate against demons. I also hope that one day the impression of demons in people's hearts can be improved.

"Master."

Opening the entrance of the tunnel, I jumped up and recovered my human body. After covering the ground, I respectfully half-kneeled in front of the long white robe and lowered my head to salute, my eyes secretly glanced around.Not bad, not bad... It seems that his business has been doing well recently, as evidenced by the dozen or so new calligraphy and paintings on the wall.

"Get up."

Master walked away from me, I stood up slowly, and patted the dirt on my knees lightly.

"It seems that you have been doing well recently, and you are very energetic. Listen carefully, the task I want you to do this time is to design a performance. You can think of a way for yourself. It is best to attract the empress."

I looked at him suspiciously, and he nodded slightly, with a narrow arc on his lips:

"The reward is, two boxes of peony petal masks, oh, little Ah Li."

Although he looks so aloof, he is actually willing to spend money on good things, and he is very straightforward.

As long as it's not cooking, I can agree to anything.

"No problem! Can I have two more boxes?"

"As long as you attract the empress, five boxes will be fine."

so good?I was almost about to cheer, but this impulse cooled down in a moment. He is easy to talk and bargain, but there is always something wrong with this cheerfulness.

But...forget it!Anyway, you can get it.

"Is there anything else you want to ask?"

After thinking about it for a while, I decided to find a reliable assistant: "Is it okay to have someone? I want Yuhuan to help me!"

"Yuhuan...as long as she agrees."

The master sat on the stool, closed his eyes slightly and fell asleep: "But she is not here now. She should have come back at this time. Why don't you go find her now, maybe she is in Changlefang."
