"No, I must find a way to bring him in. Someone, come here!"
The Young Master of Pearfall Palace issued the order, and immediately, a servant stepped forward to his side.
"Go. Think of a way to bring Ling Xue into the banquet hall. That little beauty rarely attends such events. It's rare for her to come today; if we let this chance slip by, there will hardly be another opportunity in the future. I don't care what method you use—just make sure my plan progresses smoothly!"
"Yes, Young Master!"
The servant quickly left, and not long after, Ling Xue's friend—the one who brought Ling Xue here—approached her side.
This was a girl whose looks could be considered passable, the illegitimate daughter of an Earl's family, far below Ling Xue in status. However, by chance, after the two met, this girl clung to Princess Ling Xue day in and day out, for reasons unknown.
