Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn

Jiang Li stood up and wiped his eyes. "Humph, Father is wrongly accusing me. I will go to Queen Mother to complain. At worst, I can ask the Dali Temple to investigate the case. If it is really me, I will be punished."

Seeing how sad she was, Emperor Ming felt a little guilty. Maybe she really had misunderstood. This girl would not let it go.

His tone softened: "Okay, I shouldn't have asked that. Don't go to the Queen. The Queen has been unwell recently and can't stand your fussing."

Jiang Li was a little confused. When she went to deliver the fish last night, her mother was in good spirits. How come she was feeling unwell? No, she had to go and check on her.

"Father, please call the imperial physician."

Emperor Ming shook his head and said, "No, your mother is afraid of taking medicine. If she feels a little uncomfortable, she will not ask the imperial physician unless she is really uncomfortable. In short, you should save your energy and don't disturb your mother's rest."

"…Father, you really are partial to one and neglect the other. When the imperial concubine was sick, you didn't care and just sent the imperial physician to see her. But when the queen mother was sick, you were relieved."

"Are you just hoping that something bad will happen to the Queen Mother so that you can make room for someone else?"

Jiang Li snorted, not caring that he was furious, and disappeared in a flash, leaving Emperor Ming choking, gasping for air, and gritting his teeth: "Defu, come in, and see that this is the fate of having a daughter."

"There is not a day that she doesn't get angry with me. It's a sin, it's really a sin."

Emperor Ming sighed and said, "Defu, it is a blessing that you have no children. If you were to encounter such a thing, you would be so angry that you would die, but you would be unable to do anything about her."

When De Fu heard this, he thought of his own broken body, the smile on his face faded a little, and he felt a little pain in his heart. If he could have a child in this life, even if the eldest princess was noisy, it would be a blessing.

"Go ask the imperial physician to take a look. Don't let that girl cause trouble again. It gives me a headache."

"Yes, old slave, go right away."

As he said this, he bent over and went out, following the imperial physician to Changchun Palace.

Jiang left the imperial kitchen for a stroll, then took the food to Changchun Palace. He ran into Defu outside the palace, trotted over, and looked at him with bright eyes: "Eunuch Defu, are you hungry? Come and have a bun."

She still likes this old eunuch very much. He is more humane than her tyrant father. He even paid for food for the Mo family out of his own pocket. He is a good man.

Defu looked at the steamed bun in his hand, which was still hot and a little scalding, and smiled: "Thank you, Princess. This is from the imperial kitchen. You want to give it to the Queen."

"Yes, eating buns for breakfast is good."

"The Queen Mother hasn't woken up yet."

"Well, I'll bring the imperial physician to take a look. Since the queen hasn't woken up yet, let's wait. Princess, why don't you sit down and wait."

Jiang Li thought about it and decided it was a good idea. Her mother took a long time to get dressed and she was impatient and couldn't wait any longer. It would be better for her to wait outside and chat with Eunuch Defu.

"Why don't you eat?"

Hearing this, Defu picked up the bun and started eating it. "Well, the buns made in the imperial kitchen are getting more and more delicious. The princess knows how to eat them. I didn't even know that the imperial kitchen had this."

"So what do you usually eat in the morning?"

"I usually don't have time to eat. After your Majesty leaves the court, if there is nothing else to do, I can eat a little. If there is something else to do, then I have to wait while hungry."

Jiang Li curled his lips. As expected, his father was a tyrant emperor who didn't do anything and didn't even allow him to eat, drink, defecate or urinate. He was really like Zhou Baopi. If it weren't for the supremacy of imperial power in ancient times, he would have been fired long ago in modern times.

He reached out and patted his shoulder: "Eunuch Defu, your body is your own. If you are sick, your father will not feel sorry for you. You must eat breakfast, otherwise if you get a stomach disease, you will suffer. "

When Deok-sun met those sincere eyes, his heart warmed and his smile became more genuine. A disabled person like him was bullied in the palace. Although he later gained the trust of the emperor, no one dared to be presumptuous anymore.

But in the eyes of those masters, he is just a dirty thing, and no one has ever cared about him so much. The princess is indeed a sincere person, but it's a pity that His Majesty just thinks the princess is fooling around.

In fact, the princess is the one who knows life best. She knows the importance of Mohism and knows who is good and who is bad.

Jiang Li touched his face and asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

Deshan took out a clean handkerchief and carefully wiped off the oil stains on the corners of her mouth. She said in a gentle voice: "Princess, it's stained with oil."

"Ha, thanks for cleaning it for me."

"...You're welcome. These are what this old slave should do."

Jiang Li waved his hand: "That's not what I meant. You have no obligation to help me. Since you have helped me, you should thank me. People are born equal, but they cannot choose their birth."

"Eunuch Deshan, I think you are a good person. If my father were reincarnated as you, I'm afraid he would commit suicide at any minute. It's really not easy to live in the palace for so many years."

"Princess...you are such a perceptive person."

Jiang Li bit into the bun with big mouthfuls: "Yes, so I don't like being in the palace, it's like a prison. If I marry Mo Yuan, I can go out in the future, and be free and happy."

"When I go out to play in the future, if I see something interesting, can you please have someone bring it to you?"

Deok-sun lowered her head to hide the emotion in her eyes.

"No need to trouble you. The princess is out of the palace, and it is a blessing for you to remember me. I dare not ask for anything else. If you can give me a message occasionally in the future, it will let me know that the princess is happy."

Jiang Li opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Qingsi came out: "Eunuch, Princess, please come in, the imperial physician, the queen has woken up."

Deshan stood up and bent over: "Princess, you can go in now."

"Okay, there are still a few warm ones left for mother to eat."

After entering, Jiang Li looked at the person whose makeup was elegant but whose eyes could not hide the fatigue. He frowned and walked over to her and said worriedly, "Mother, you don't look very good. Did you not eat well?"

The queen was a little amused and helpless. She was not feeling well, but it was not because she didn't eat well. It might be for other reasons. She was fine at night, but she had no strength during the day.

It's better to take his pulse to make sure he's not poisoned or something.

"Mother is fine. I just feel tired during the day recently. I have no appetite and can't eat. Or I feel a little nauseous."

Jiang Li thought about his mother who had eaten several grilled fishes last night. She had a good appetite last night, so how could she look so haggard in just one night?

"Okay, let the imperial physician take a look. This bun is delicious. I wanted to bring it to my mother to try. Since I have no appetite, it would be uncomfortable to force myself to eat it."

He turned his head and looked over: "Imperial Physician, please come quickly and take a look at what disease the Queen Mother has."

"Yes, I will come right away."

a moment later

A hint of doubt flashed across the imperial physician's eyes. This... is clearly a pregnancy pulse.

"My lady, you are pregnant."
