That year, he was not yet the emperor, and she was just Ji Feiyu.
That year, he was suave and dashing, while she wore only a red dress.
That year, he was not yet the top scholar in the imperial examination and knew nothing about power tactics.
That year, he roamed the rivers and lakes in a blue robe, but Ji Feiyu had already been engraved in his heart.
That year, many things happened.
That year, youth was in full bloom, and the beauty smiled like a flower.
That year...
In fact, there are many "that years" in life.
Whom did you meet in your "that year"?

"Come on, little beauty, where are you running? Come into your lord's arms..." A lewd and vulgar voice intruded into the ear inappropriately. Following it was the crying of another woman. "My lord, please don't! I'm just an entertainer!"
Ji Feiyu drank a cup of wine and looked up without any reaction. Such things happened countless times a day. After getting involved in too many such matters, she didn't want to bother anymore. First of all, saving that woman would offend someone. Secondly, if that woman wanted to marry her as a token of gratitude, wouldn't she have to raise a vixen who would steal her man?
Ji Feiyu sneered and continued drinking. She would never forget why she came here alone to drink today. If it weren't for a woman she had saved before who was always clinging to her man in front of her eyes, why would she have to come here to drink to relieve her anger?
Damn it, it's really hateful! That man didn't even notice at all and even said he only regarded that woman as his younger sister.
Younger sister my ass! That woman was already clinging to him. Was there such a younger sister?
She was really too lazy to be jealous or get angry, lest he say she was being unreasonable. So she ran out to get some fresh air and let him deal with that woman by himself.
That woman had evil intentions, and her heart was despicable! But it wasn't the time to punish her yet!
Ji Feiyu put down the wine cup heavily, which attracted everyone's attention. Even the vulgar uncle who was molesting the woman paused and looked over.
Ji Feiyu ignored everyone and continued to pour wine. So the uncle continued to molest the woman. "Oh, little girl, just let your lord hug you for a while. It won't hurt..."
"My lord, I come from a decent family. Please don't..."
Everyone at the tables pretended to be blind, and no one stood up to say a word. Ji Feiyu suddenly felt that she had been too stupid before.
Ji Feiyu continued to drink. At this moment, a gentle male voice suddenly rang out. "Stop!"
Ji Feiyu looked up and saw a handsome and elegant man. She instantly spat out a mouthful of wine. Cough, cough. Had the world changed? How come such a gentle and seemingly frail man had started to practice martial arts?
"Who are you? Why are you meddling in other people's business here!" Before the molester could speak, his subordinates surrounded the man.
The gentle man immediately said a classic line. "In broad daylight, you are molesting a decent woman. Do you still think you're in the right?"
At this time, the uncle walked over and said rather rascally, "So what if I molest her? I'm not only going to molest her, but I'm also going to molest you!" After saying that, he reached out and touched the man's face, which instantly caused a burst of laughter from the people around.
The man's face instantly turned red, and he pointed at the uncle tremblingly. "You, you, you... How dare you!"
At this time, a young pageboy beside the man said, "You bunch of ignorant guys. How dare you bully my young master? Don't you know that my young master's father is the Grand Tutor of the current dynasty?"
After hearing this, those people burst into laughter. "Hahaha, your father is the Grand Tutor. My father is even the emperor! So what if I bully you? If you have the guts, call your father, the Grand Tutor, here! Hahaha..."
Ji Feiyu watched as the vulgar uncle touched the gentle man's face again. She couldn't bear it anymore. It was okay for these vulgar men to molest women, but how could they even molest men? It was really outrageous!
A wine cup suddenly flew up and hit the forehead of the person who was laughing the most heartily. The cup didn't break but rolled on the ground for a few times. Everyone's laughter stopped abruptly. Ji Feiyu floated over in a red dress, holding a jade flute in her hand. Her expression was very unpleasant.
"Who just said he was the emperor's son? Stand out for me!" Ji Feiyu said sternly, with an irresistible coldness in her tone.
The man whose forehead had been hit glared at her angrily. But the vulgar uncle was stunned by the beauty of the person who had come. Then he excitedly shouted, "Oh my, why is your lord so lucky today? Three beautiful women have come all at once!"
Then he rolled his eyes and instantly shot out a white hidden weapon. Seeing this, Ji Feiyu blocked it with her jade flute. Unexpectedly, the hidden weapon exploded and turned into white powder. Ji Feiyu immediately held her breath, but still inhaled a little. She waved away the powder impatiently, glared at the man angrily, and took out an antidote pill from the medicine bottle she carried with her and swallowed it.
The vulgar uncle laughed when he saw her actions. "It's useless." Then he reached out his hand to touch her. Ji Feiyu blocked his wandering hand with the jade flute and said, "Don't touch me with the hand that has touched men. Otherwise, I'll make it rot."
The man laughed lewdly and showed no sign of backing down. Instead, he grabbed the flute. "What, little sister likes playing the flute? Then why don't you play the flute for your lord too!"
The people around him all burst into laughter.
Ji Feiyu sneered. Somehow, she pulled the jade flute out of the man's hand. She took a step back and spun the jade flute handsomely. "Rot!"
Almost instantly, the man let out a painful scream. Everyone was startled by his scream and looked at his hand. Only Ji Feiyu looked straight ahead with a smile. She didn't need to look to know that the hand would rot completely in no time.
"Ouch, you damned little vixen. You actually poisoned me. Men, beat her up!" The man shouted while shaking his hand in pain and giving the order. But Ji Feiyu turned around and said, "Come a step closer and take a look. I'm telling you all in advance that the poison on me is everywhere. As long as you get a little bit of it, you'll end up just like him!"
As soon as she said this, a circular space instantly appeared around her. No one dared to get close.
The man was instantly furious. "You bunch of good-for-nothings. You're scared by just one sentence from someone. What's the use of me raising you?"
The group of people felt extremely ashamed and were eager to try.
Ji Feiyu laughed again. "Do you know that there was a plague in the Jiangnan Manor some time ago? Do you know that several disciples of the Xiao Sword School were itching all over and their bodies were swollen like pigs? Do you know that the water in the Lingxiao Palace was poisoned? All those... were done by me..."
The expressions of those people instantly turned terrified. Some stepped back a few steps, and some pointed at her with trembling hands and feet, stammering, "It's her. She's the Red-clothed Woman of the Night..."
Ji Feiyu laughed extremely happily. "That's right, you bunch of bastards. You've finally recognized your grandma... Then your grandma will do a good deed today and send you on your way."
