Yu Yao woke up and found herself in a stranger's room, surrounded by ornate decorations, but with an exotic style.
He was about to let the system transfer the memory and plot to her.
The man's cold voice echoed in his ear.
"You've woken up."
Yu Yao looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man wearing a long black robe standing at the door.
The man combined the grace of the Central Plains people with the wildness of the Western Regions, featuring high, chiseled cheekbones and a prominent nose, and thick eyelashes.
He looks quite handsome, but too cold.
She didn't receive the original owner's memory now, not knowing who this man was, but he must be someone the original owner knew.
"Hm."
She pretended to have some discomfort in her head and nodded slightly.
The black-robed man looked at her coldly for a moment and said coldly, "The leader has a task to give you, and you must complete it."
"What task?" she asked.
"Go to Jing Country, assassinate Jing Country's war god Prince Xuanyuan Cheng."
The black-robed man's tone carried no emotion, "This is your mission, and your only way out."
Yu Yao frowned slightly. She didn't know who the Jing Country's war god prince was, but her intuition told her that that person was very likely the main male character in the multiverse.
Seeing that she didn't respond, the man said coldly, "You have taken poison. You can only obtain the antidote by completing the task."
Still cold and emotionless.
Yu Yao smiled coldly in her heart. With her system, any poison was just a joke to her.
"I understand."
She said coldly without looking at the man.
"The royal court will send a batch of precious treasures and dancing girls to Jing Country, and you are one of the dancing girls in the offering. Once you arrive in Jing Country, act according to the situation."
The man coldly looked at her and said a sentence before turning and leaving.
Yu Yao fell onto the bed and sat there, pale-faced, as if she had lost all her strength.
"Transfer all the plot and memories to me."
She weakly spoke to the system in her heart.
"Okay."
The system replied.
And then, a sudden intense pain hit her head, as if something was desperately trying to penetrate inside, causing her forehead to crease tightly in pain.
When the pain in her head eased, Yu Yao began to sort out the memories and plot.
The original owner was an orphan who was adopted by the Western Regions royal court since childhood and was meticulously trained as an assassin.
The Xuanyuan Cheng they are assigned to kill this time is the male protagonist of this world.
It is also the object she needs to conquer.
Now, Yu Yao's head hurt even more.
She thought about the man who said that she had taken poison.
She quietly checked herself and found that this body was indeed poisoned.
It is still a very rare and serious poison found in the Western Regions, which can remain hidden in a person's body for a long time.
But every year, the antidote must be taken. Without the antidote, the poison will immediately manifest and lead to death.
Yu Yao laughed coldly, opened the system mall, searched for an antidote pill, and clicked to purchase.
A round, brown pill appeared in her palm.
She looked at it for a moment and then swallowed it.
The antidote pills from the system can cure all poisons, neutralizing even the most potent toxins.
After taking the antidote, she felt more at ease.
"Only give birth to children for Xuanyuan Cheng, right? Are there any other tasks?"
Yu Yao asked the system.
"Ding, Task 1: Give birth to an heir for the world's male protagonist Xuanyuan Cheng. Task 2: Break free from the fate of a killer and live a good life."
The system's mechanical voice echoed in her mind.
The first is the system's task, and the second is the original owner's wish.
The first task, let's put it aside for now.
The second task, to break free from the fate of a killer and live a good life.
This task may not be difficult or easy, depending on how you look at it.
And watch how she handles it.
Yu Yao hadn't seen the appearance of the original owner yet, so she glanced at a bronze mirror in the room and went over to take a look.
In the mirror, a face with an exotic style was reflected, featuring high nose and deep eyes, exquisite and beautiful facial features, and graceful figure, making her a very beautiful beauty.
Due to the environmental factors of the region, the original owner's skin was somewhat poor.
But that doesn't pose a problem for her.
Yu Yao swallowed all the beauty pills, including Beauty Pill, Beauty Skin Pill, Fragrant Body Tablet, and Firming Tablet.
Now, she just had to wait for her journey to Jing Country.
The blood-red sunset glow of the Western Regions bathed the edge of the desert.
A few days later, Yu Yao followed the group of tributaries to Jing Country.
Looking at the camel she was riding on her buttocks, she honestly felt it was quite fresh.
Walking along the way, she enjoyed the scenery along the route.
After a long journey, the group finally arrived at the capital city of Jing Country.
The prosperity here forms a sharp contrast with the desolation of the Western Regions.
The people on the streets looked at them as if they were rare animals, stopping to watch and gather around.
Yu Yao and her party were accommodated at an inn in the capital city, waiting for the emperor of Jing Country to summon them.
"Transfer, where is Xuanyuan Cheng at the moment?"
She sat in the inn room, mentally asking the system.
"He is at the military camp outside the city and will return to the city soon."
The system replied.
Knowing that Xuanyuan Cheng would soon return to the city, she swirled her eyes, took a bath, changed into a clean set of clothes, and then went out.
The capital city of Jing Country was prosperous and solemn, bustling with people coming and going.
Yu Yao was dressed in a beautiful and dignified manner today, with a golden long dress that shone brilliantly under the sunlight.
A jade pendant hung from her waist, gently swaying with her movements, emitting a clear and pleasant sound.
She wore a white veil on her face, only her eyes showing, and they were as clear and captivating as autumn water.
Her appearance drew people's attention, making them look sideways as if she were a rare treasure from a distant land.
Yu Yao paid no mind to it, merely curiously observing this unfamiliar world.
Yu Yao chose to go out at this time because she wanted to see if she could encounter Xuanyuan Cheng.
If she could leave a good impression on him, the chances of her entering the palace would be a bit higher.
Suddenly, the sound of hooves came, and she looked up to see a man on a tall horse riding swiftly towards her.
The man had a stern face and a strong sense of pride in his demeanor.
The man was followed by a group of soldiers. The people in the street, upon seeing this scene, voluntarily cleared a path for them. They stood on both sides of the street, whispering and discussing.
"Wow, look! The war god prince is coming. He's the pillar of our Jing Country, a guardian deity, who has won great military achievements for our country, keeping enemy nations at bay. I didn't expect him to look so handsome..."
" Indeed, he is very handsome. It's said that he is nearly 30 and has not yet married, which has worried the empress in the palace. No one knows what kind of woman he likes."
"No one knows that. Besides, we won't have the chance."
......
Many women on both sides of the street couldn't help but become smitten with him.
Some bold women directly threw their handkerchiefs at Xuanyuan Cheng, hoping he would look at them for a moment.
Xuanyuan Cheng was accustomed to such scenes and did not take offense. He did not look at those women any more than necessary and simply rode into the city.
Yu Yao gazed at the man riding into the city and couldn't help but carefully examine him.
The man's eyes were deep like a pool, and his face was cold and resolute. He was very noble, and his brows held a hint of regal authority.
Is this the famous war god prince of Jing Country, Xuanyuan Cheng?
Xuanyuan Cheng rode past on his horse, accidentally glancing at Yu Yao in the crowd.
Seeing her dressed in an exotic style and recalling that his brother had mentioned the matter of tribute of dance girls from the Western Regions a few days ago, he guessed a bit.
But he did not put it to heart.
"Prince, the eyes of that girl are incredibly beautiful. I wonder what her appearance would be like under her veil, she looks like someone from the Western Regions."
The guards on either side couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Xuanyuan Cheng slightly nodded and his gaze turned back towards that direction, only to find that the woman from the Western Regions had turned around and walked away.
Only leaving behind, a graceful silhouette.
A strange feeling welled up in his heart, but he couldn't describe what it was specifically.
Xuanyuan Cheng did not place much thought on it and soon rode past the street in a hurry, returning to his palace.
Yu Yao didn't know that Xuanyuan Cheng had looked at her later, or she might have regretted turning around too quickly.
She strolled around the streets for a while and then returned to the inn.
After dinner, she quickly bathed and brushed her teeth, then lay down in bed.
Looking out the window at the night sky, she thought about how she could catch Xuanyuan Cheng's attention when she entered the palace to perform.
The dancers from the Western Regions, whether left in the palace or given as gifts to high-ranking officials and nobles, will be assigned to them.
How to smoothly enter Xuanyuan Cheng's palace was something that needed careful planning.
Her status as a Western Regions dancer is both sensitive and humble.
Climbing into Xuanyuan Cheng's bed and gaining his trust and love, she feared, would not be an easy task.
Even if she were to smoothly enter the palace, Xuanyuan Cheng would definitely be cautious around her.
It's just that she is a dancer from the Western Regions who have been presented as a gift.
