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

The more Qiao Shu looked at him, the more she liked him. If she had such a lovely daughter, she would definitely not be willing to let her get married. She might as well just find a son-in-law for her at home. He is so soft and fun, much better than a naughty boy.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law gathered together to gossip, and chuckled from time to time. They didn't look like mother-in-law and daughter-in-law at all, but more like sisters.

Jiang Li heard a lot of interesting stories and couldn't help but say, "Mom, A Yuan is very different from when he was a child. When he was a child, he was a naughty devil, but when he grew up, how come he became so introverted all of a sudden."

"Of course not. He has become more and more crooked as he grows up. It's all because of his brother. He said something about being a gentleman but what is he talking about? I once thought he was a homosexual and was so worried."

"...!!"

"Ah, why?"

When Qiao Shu opened her mouth to speak, there was a light cough beside her. She looked at her third son's indifferent eyes, her gaze dodged, feeling a little guilty, and kept silent.

He said vaguely: "Well, Xiao Li will ask himself. If you ask him, he will definitely tell you. Don't think he is silent, he has a lot of ideas."

After dinner, the two walked along the corridor. Jiang Li felt his hands warm up. He turned his head and met his worried eyes: "My wife, those rumors are false. Don't take them seriously. I didn't explain it before because I thought it was unnecessary."

Mo Yuan was a little lacking in confidence. He used to think that His Majesty was incompetent, the war on the front was tense, the court was controlled by treacherous ministers, and there were internal and external troubles. He had no time to think about these things.

There are many people in the capital who are eyeing the General's Mansion. The rumor about gay sleeves could save him from a lot of trouble. He didn't expect that this rumor would bring him trouble now.

Jiang Li blinked his eyes, a little confused: "Is this story of homosexuality spread because you are not interested in women?"

"No, there was one time..."

After Mo Yuan explained the whole story, he stared at her nervously, "I am not a homosexual. That was a misunderstanding. It was a rumor spread by the Prime Minister's people. As for not being interested in women, it is true. I really don't like those women."

"So, when did you like me?"

"…In the military camp, I thought I was sick and avoided you for a while. It was because of this that I finally figured it out. It doesn't matter whether you are a man or a woman, as long as it's you."

Jiang Li pulled the corner of his mouth and asked casually: "When did you know that I was dressed as a man? Tell the truth."

Mo Yuan paused, and said calmly: "In the military camp, when you saved me, I knew that you were a woman, but I didn't dare to say it because of some things."

"Hmm? You dare not say what it is."

"At that time, the general's mansion was in a difficult situation. I didn't want to say something useless and cause you trouble. I just didn't expect that you would be the eldest princess. It's really... fate."

Jiang Li scratched his head and muttered quietly: "Perhaps, this is destined by God. I don't know that I am actually the eldest princess, and I have such an unpromising father. It's quite disillusioning."

Mo Yuan felt much calmer as the wind blew.

"Want to see fireflies?"

What? Why did they suddenly mention fireflies? The topic changed so quickly that she couldn't keep up. She looked at him stupidly: "Ah, where can we go to see them?"

Mo Yuan held her waist, flew onto the roof, and headed in one direction, saying softly, "That place is very beautiful. At this time, the sky is full of fireflies. You can only see them a few times a year. It would be a pity to miss it."

Jiang Li buried himself in his arms, and felt more expectant after hearing his words.

It must be very romantic. She had watched a lot of soap operas in her previous life. Not to mention that when it really happened to her, the feeling was really wonderful.

After an unknown amount of time, the two of them fell down.

Mo Yuan found a stone, cleaned it, motioned for her to sit down, and flew out. Not long after, fireflies kept flying up and circling around, like tiny stars.

Jiang Li looked at him straight, with curved eyebrows and a hint of smile.

A voice came from behind: "Does it look good?"

"Yeah, it's beautiful, like the stars in the sky."

Mo Yuan put his arms around her waist, resting his chin on the top of her head, and said in a relaxed tone: "So, my lady has stripped me of everything. When are you willing to tell me where you came from?"

Jiang Li's body stiffened, with a hint of panic in his eyes.

"…Um, why do you ask?"

"It's okay, don't be afraid. I know you are not Jiang Li. Even if a person loses his memory, the change will not be so great. What's more, my wife has never concealed it. It's hard for me not to know."

Mo Yuan patted her hand gently and comforted her: "If you don't want to talk, then don't talk. When you want to talk, it's not too late. I just think that the place where you lived before was very hard."

There was a struggle in Jiang Li's eyes. If he told it, what if he was betrayed in the future? No, between husband and wife, if they were always on guard like this, what was the point of living together?

After a moment's silence, his eyes gradually became firm.

"I am Jiang Li, but I am not the eldest princess of Qi. I come from another time and space, a very bad place. Because of human greed, that place has brought a catastrophic disaster."

Jiang Li leaned in his arms, feeling a little depressed. She slowly talked about her past life and how she was torn to pieces and came here after she died. As for why this happened, she had no idea.

"That's it. The humans of that time and space may disappear in the future. Food is scarce, and the people who are still alive are just barely surviving. I'm lucky to be here."

After I expressed what was pent up in my heart, I felt much better.

Mo Yuan didn't say anything and hugged her tighter. Things that he didn't understand before became clearer and clearer. So that's why she liked to eat so much. It was because there was nothing to eat before.

"Well, it's great that my lady can come here. Your friends will come too."

Jiang Li shook his head: "I don't know. As far as I know, I'm the only one who came here. I've never seen other people. It would be great if they could come."

Sensing the loneliness that emanated from her, Mo Yuan felt a little distressed: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't ask these questions."

"No, it's only natural for a couple to be honest with each other. Besides, I don't want to. You always treat me as the eldest princess. I am who I am, and I have never been anyone's substitute. Otherwise, I wouldn't have made such a lame excuse."

Jiang Li pursed his lips and asked casually, "Does Big Brother know about this too? He is full of cunning tricks, I definitely can't hide it from him."

Mo Yuan chuckled and said, "Well, my brother should know, but that's not important. He won't say anything. Even if someone doubts your identity, it's useless without evidence."

"That's right. Anyway, I am Jiang Li now, and Jiang Li is me. There is no difference. Since I am using her body, Qi Kingdom will naturally protect it and will not let it perish easily."
