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

General's Mansion Backyard

Jiang Li jumped into the yard, knocked on the door, and soon the door opened from the inside.

I didn't react for a moment and could only hold my hands up awkwardly. I glared at him, then quickly withdrew my hands and put them behind my back.

Mo Yuan was wearing his inner clothes, with a smile in his eyes: "Xiao Li, why are you here? This time you are not climbing through the window, but knocking on the door instead."

"I saw that your room was lighted, so there was no need to climb through the window. If it wasn't lighted, you would definitely climb through the window. Let's go in and talk. The man was watching closely, and I had a hard time getting out."

He turned sideways and watched her enter the room, close the door, and walk away.

As soon as Jiang Li entered the room, he smelled the aroma of meat. He stretched his neck and sniffed, sniffing around. On the table behind the curtain, he found a few oil paper packages. The aroma of meat was coming from there.

I couldn't help swallowing and said, "A Yuan, you are about to go to bed, and you are still eating meat. It must be difficult to digest. How about I help you solve it?"

A man's chuckle came from behind.

Mo Yuan couldn't help but laugh and said, "This is prepared for you. I don't know when you will come. In order to save you from looking for food in the middle of the night, it is better to put some here early."

"It will be more convenient if you can eat whenever you want."

Jiang Li turned his head and gave him a knowing look, then opened the oil paper package. Inside was a roast chicken, sliced ​​pork head and shiny pork elbow, and it was obvious that they had just been bought.

It was still a little warm to the touch, but stewed food should be eaten cold, which makes it more chewy. I couldn't help swallowing my saliva and said, "These are from Uncle Zhang's, right? I know it as soon as I smell this."

"Yeah, I know you like to eat at his restaurant."

The two sat down, and Mo Yuan poured a cup of tea and pushed it over: "How are you doing in the harem? How does Prince Yun treat you? Has he caused you any trouble?"

Jiang Li had eaten a full meal in the evening, so he wasn't too hungry now. He could eat later. He took the cup, drank it all, and let out a breath.

"It's okay, but he always sends people to follow me. It's annoying to death when I go to the toilet. He wanted to cause trouble for me before, and he even brought his concubine with him, but I kicked him into the lake to cool off. As for him, he is really funny."

"He thought that the shadow guards were there to protect him, but in the end he was beaten up by a few of my bastards. His face was swollen like a pig's head. He hasn't attended court for the past three days, and his face hasn't healed yet."

"You are so self-righteous. I even killed my own father, so how could I give him fake face? You are asking for a fight. If I showed any mercy, it would be because I am immature."

Mo Yuan's shoulders were trembling slightly, and he was having a hard time holding back his laughter. Well, he didn't have to worry. If anyone ran into his princess, he would just have to consider himself unlucky and not be able to do anything to her.

"Yes, but you still have to be more careful. He can't do anything to you if you attack him openly, but he can poison you secretly."

Jiang Li waved his hand: "It's okay, I'm immune to all poisons. Except for aphrodisiacs, other poisons are useless to me."

"...!!"

Mo Yuan pressed his forehead. Who did the princess inherit this carefree personality from? He couldn't say such things. What if someone treated her like this? What would he do?

"A Yuan, I came out of the palace because I want you to take me to see how my father is doing now. He won't die, will he? Although he is useless, he can still be alive as a decoration."

"Hey, he is my real dad after all. If he really dies, who can I vent my anger on? By comparison, my real dad is much more pleasing to the eye than the fake one."

Jiang Li sighed, feeling a bit melancholy.

Mo Yuan said softly, "If Xiao Li wants to go, I'll go with you. Your Majesty has suffered a lot this time. He doesn't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes."

"Oh, he has nothing to eat. Will he die of starvation or disease?"

"You won't starve to death. The Mohists are distributing porridge outside the city. Your Majesty and a little kid will go to get porridge every day. There are also steamed buns. The food is not good, but you won't starve to death."

"Compared to the luxurious life we ​​had before, now it's so different."

Jiang Li blinked his eyes, took out a cloth bag from the space, put all the oil paper bags in it, and put it on his shoulder: "A Yuan, take me to see it. If dad is too thin, give him this meat to eat."

Mo Yuan stood up and took his clothes. He glanced at her and said, "Xiao Li, turn your back. I will change my clothes and take you to see His Majesty right away."

"…Oh, okay."

There was a hint of regret in her tone. They were already engaged, so why couldn't they kiss, hug, and lift each other up? Not only that, they weren't allowed to see her change clothes, nor were they allowed to touch her abdominal muscles or chest muscles.

Why is her life so miserable? No matter which man Sister Yun and the others like, they can just make out with him with a glance, but when it comes to her, she can only look but not eat.

There was a rustling sound of clothes behind him, and then things quickly returned to normal.

Mo Yuan stood behind her and patted her shoulder gently: "Xiao Li, it's ok, turn around, we can go see His Majesty."

Jiang Li turned around and wiped it off on the pretext of helping him tidy up his clothes, with a smile on her face: "Well, it's done, let's get ready to go."

"...??"

"Okay, Xiaoli, wait until these things are dealt with, and I'll take you to the Divine Doctor Valley. Once your face is healed, you won't be so stiff and expressionless. I want to see you really smile."

Mo Yuan put his arm around her waist and flew past her on tiptoe.

Jiang Li leaned in his arms, looking obedient: "Okay, when everything is settled, we will go and treat my face. I also want to smile, instead of looking expressionless like a puppet like now."

"Don't talk about you. Even the most beautiful woman is often scared. You said that my smile is scary. It's better not to smile."

"Ahem, once you're cured, Xiaoli will definitely look beautiful when she smiles."

Alas, she doesn’t know either. She can’t see it anyway. Even if her smile is ugly, it tortures the people who see her. Sometimes it is a kind of happiness that she can’t see it herself.

Not long after, the two men landed on the roof of the dilapidated temple and looked down at the people lying on the ground below.

Jiang Li searched with her eyes and soon found the person she was looking for in the corner. But who was that person in her father's arms? Why did he look like a child? He actually slept with a child in his arms.

He lowered his voice and said, "A Yuan, who is that little kid? My father is so humane one day that he actually holds a child in his arms. He never held a child in his arms when he slept with my three brothers."

Mo Yuan raised his eyebrows, also a little surprised. He knew that His Majesty knew a little beggar, but he didn't expect that in just two days, he would put aside his dignity as the emperor and sleep with a child in his arms.

"Well, maybe it's for warmth. It's very cold in the ruined temple at night. If Your Majesty sleeps alone, you may not be able to sleep."

"That's right, do you think my dad has lost weight?"

"It's only been two days, I can't tell. He probably hasn't lost much weight. He ate two steamed buns in one meal. Your Majesty's appetite was never this good before."

Jiang Li echoed, "Yeah, I was spoiled in the past, I was picky, now there's nothing to eat, you see, isn't it eating well?"
