 When night approached, Feng Xi er and Tu Dou changed into men's clothing. Feng Xi Er looked at the beautiful boy in the bronze mirror and nodded with satisfaction. 

    Black dense willow eyebrows with Wo Can Danfeng eyes under the eyebrows. Thick and long eyelashes, coupled with a high and delicate nose. There was also a red powdered small cherry mouth, delicate facial features paired with the small distinct egg-shaped face; it was simply perfect. Three thousand black strands of hair were combed high, using only a simple large white strip of hairband. 'His' hair naturally hung at the back. 

     Feng Xi er lamented, the original owner really looked very good, but she used to keep her head down and loved to put on that scary heavy makeup that made herself look ugly. Now, she was presenting the face without make-up and without applying any powder. Conversely, this showed off her real beauty. 

     In addition, Feng Xi er was wearing a white inner coat and beige outer robe, which highlighted her ethereal beauty. Being a woman and dressing up as a man; she looked more flavourful than real beautiful men. Just like the Hai Tang officer played by the world's number 1 Li Ye Xuan. When Feng Xi Er watched it that year, she was so excited, her blood was boiling. Even in her dreams, she wanted to be a female hero. She did not expect that now it'll be realised. 

     So excited, Jiu zhong Building, I am coming, Feng Xi er exclaimed in her heart, taking Xiao Tu Dou to climb over the wall and go out. 

     Soon, the two came to the front of the Jiu zhong Building. 

     Xiao Tu Dou got a bit cowardly, and timidly opened her mouth: “Miss, why don't we go back”. 

     Feng Xi er pulled out the jade fan from her waist and knocked on Xiao Tu Dou's head. She acted strict and scolded: "Call me Young master {ye}, let's go, come with Young master to have a good time". After she left the words, she couldn't wait to cross the door. Perhaps she was not used to men's clothing, she placed her foot awkwardly, and almost fell at the door. Fortunately, Xiao Tu Dou reacted quickly and supported her. 

    Feng Xi er exhaled, stood up straight, and adjusted the the robe on her body. She looked up and saw the tenth prince and the seventh prince in the conspicuous space on the high platform of the second floor. The two men were tasting their tea slowly. 

Feng Xi Er scolded Seventh Prince in her heart for being a beast in human clothing, his mouth said that he was not interested, yet his feet brought him to the brothel. 

     She was afraid that the two brothers would recognize her, and Feng Xier took Xiao Tu Dou to hide in the corner. 

     The show finally began with everyone anticipating and watching.

     A lady wearing green robes appeared from above, straddling a long white cloth, and slowly slid down to the center of the stage. The people have not had time to see the lady's true face and she had already begun dancing gracefully. The material of the green skirt was very soft, and was following the movement of the lady's dance. It swayed in a natural manner following the wind and a beautiful circle was drawn. Everyone applauded and shouted loudly: “Lu[1]Fu, Lu Fu…” The applause sounded all around. 

    Feng Xi er tip-toed and stretched her neck to see the lady's face. She only saw the green-clothed beauty wearing a purple face cloth over her face, only revealing a pair of distinctly black and white seductive eyes that were very beautiful. Her forehead was smooth and bright, and the top half of her black hair was combed into a big flower, and the bottom half naturally hung on her back. As she danced, her black hair naturally swayed. This scene was as beautiful as in a fairyland, and everyone looked at her, dazed.

    At this time, they heard the sound of a zither, and the sound was crisp and beautiful. The people were even more excited, and one after another, they looked up at the small pavilion behind the stage and looked towards the half-hidden red silhouette behind the bead curtain. Some people cried out: “Hong[2]Jiu, Hong Jiu, Miss Hong Jiu, quickly reveal yourself”. 

    Some people reprimanded: “We are already so fortunate since it's such a rare event for Lu Fu fairy and Miss Hong Jiu to perform together. How could us, such common people, peep at the celestial appearance of Miss Hong Jiu?"

    The more mysterious she was, more often than not, she won't easily show her face, and the rarer it was, the more precious it became.

 Someone in the crowd scorned: “What are you acting aloof for? Can't see, can't touch and can't even sleep with. Looking left and right, she's just a prostitute.”
