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

Mammy muttered to herself, turned her head and met the pair of indifferent eyes, her heart skipped a beat, and she said awkwardly: "Well, young lady, please be busy first, we old slaves will not disturb you."

"Go, go quickly."

Bi Yue had an expressionless face as she stared at their departing backs and snorted. Could they please stay away from people who were talking bad about others behind their backs? Her princess would not die. If anyone had to die, it would be that crazy prince.

Inside the new house

Seeing that everyone had left, Jiang Li took off her veil, stood up and sat at the table, starting to eat pastries. Listening to the dead silence outside, one might have thought this was the cold palace. That was fine, it wouldn't prevent her from going out for a stroll at night.

Bi Yue pushed open the door, placed a bowl of noodles on the table, and said softly, "Master, eat it while it's hot. This is what I made. Those people made it. I'm worried. What if they poisoned it?"

"Not bad, very thoughtful. Come, let's eat together."

"Eating is the most important thing in the world. Eat and drink until you are full before you do anything else."

"……it is good"

The master and servant finished eating, and before they could put away the dishes, Qianying's voice came from outside the door: "Master, someone is coming. They are some women. Judging from their attire, they may be the prince's women."

Jiang Li raised his eyebrows: "I see, the troublemaker is here, and I was just worried that I wouldn't have a chance to cause trouble. Look, here comes the chance."

"Biyue, Nichang is the princess's married wife and the principal wife, so beating a few concubines is also within the rules, right?"

"Of course, if they are disrespectful to their master, it is fine to kill them on the spot. Princess Nishang is the little princess of Yu Country, and the marriage is for the sake of friendship between the two countries. Even if the prince wants to kill someone, he must do it privately."

"If they come in person, it would be malicious provocation of war. The Crazy Prince certainly doesn't want this reputation. Otherwise, there would be no need to go through so much trouble. Just start the war directly. What do you think, Master?"

Jiang Li grinned, revealing his sharp white teeth: "That's right, this identity is so useful. If I'm not arrogant and domineering, I'd be unworthy of this identity. Hehe, let's see how I perform."

Bi Yue raised her eyebrows and reminded quietly: "Master, you can be arrogant, but you should restrain yourself a little, otherwise people will die and you will be suspected."

"I understand. Just wait and see. I will restrain myself."

a moment later

The door was pushed open, and many people swarmed in, staring at her intently: "Oh, sister, please don't blame me. I just heard that the little princess of Yu Country is extremely talented and I was very curious, so I came with the other sisters to take a look."

Jiang Li chuckled in his heart and said, "It's okay to take a look, as long as you're not afraid of the pain of getting slapped in the face."

Her voice was slightly cold: "Chenlu, I am the princess and the prince's legal wife. According to the palace rules, you should be polite to me. Even if we are sisters, you should not be so rude, like a rough country woman."

Bi Yue glanced at them and saw how angry they were. She suppressed her laughter and said, "Yes, since you are here, please greet my master first, so that when you leave, people won't say that the women in the prince's palace are uneducated."

The girls stared at each other, and one of them came over, raised his hand to hit Biyue, a mere maid. Even if they couldn't lay hands on the Crown Princess, could they not hit a little maid?

Just as the slap was about to fall, a slender hand grabbed her wrist and squeezed hard. There was a cracking sound, and the woman in yellow screamed, "Ahhh, it hurts, my hand, my hand is broken."

Jiang Li pulled down her veil, revealing her pretty little face. She was looking at the screaming woman in yellow at this moment, and asked with a smile, "Sister, does your hand hurt? How could you be so careless? You just looked at someone, and you broke your hand."

"Look at what this has caused. Come, let me help you up."

Regardless of her reaction, he pulled her up and kindly bent her hand. Looking at her twisted hand, he apologized repeatedly: "Oh, sorry, I bent it in the wrong place. Let's try again."

The woman in yellow was in so much pain that she felt dizzy. She couldn't break free and could only cry, "No, no, sister, I was wrong. Please stop prying me open. If you keep prying my hand open, it will be broken..."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Li kindly helped her to get back into position and patted her shoulder gently. He was so strong that the woman in yellow fell to the ground. Everyone else was dumbfounded. There was deathly silence in the room and no one dared to say a word.

"Hmm? Sister, this is the first time we meet, how can I be so polite? Hurry up and stand up. Do you want me to help you? You can't stand steadily. You are too weak."

"In the future, you must take good care of yourself, otherwise how can you serve the prince?"

The woman in yellow didn't care about anything else. She hurriedly got up and looked at her with fear in her eyes. She stepped back repeatedly: "Sister remembered that I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. You guys can talk slowly."

After saying that, he turned around and ran. His steps were a little hurried and he almost fell when he passed the threshold.

The others looked at each other, and said, "We have already seen the sister, she is indeed a rare beauty. We will... not disturb you any more, and leave first."

Seeing that they wanted to run away, Jiang Li narrowed her eyes and opened her red lips slightly: "Wait, since you came to see me, where is the gift? It's a bit impolite to leave without giving anything."

"Oh, yes, it's a gift for meeting someone."

The women smiled reluctantly, they came here just to show off their power to the Crown Princess, so naturally they were wearing good things, and they had to give them now. If they didn't, they might not be able to leave.

Bi Yue took the tray, stepped forward and motioned for them to put the items on the tray. A tinkling sound was heard and soon the tray was filled with gold and silver jewelry, jade bracelets and the like.

Jiang Li smiled sweetly: "My sisters are so kind. They came to see me and were so eager to bring the gift with them. I am so touched. Chenlu, why don't you return the gift?"

"Yes, I'll be right there."

As he spoke, he took out a purse from his pocket, grabbed a handful of golden melon seeds, and distributed one to everyone, saying, "My master said that it's not about how expensive something is, but the thought behind it that counts. This kind of thought is great."

Everyone's body was stiff, looking at the golden melon seeds in their palms, their mouths twitching, this was too stingy, they gave more than one golden melon seed as a reward to the palace maids, this was like giving away beggars.

Meeting that pair of calm, indifferent eyes, it was as scary as seeing the prince. The anger in my heart instantly dissipated, and I lowered my head quickly: "Yes, sister is right."

Jiang Li's lips curled slightly. It's really cool to be so arrogant and domineering.

"Although I don't care about my status, we are serving the Crown Prince after all, so we can't be without respect. Don't call me sister from now on. Remember to call me Crown Princess. Got it?"

"It's better to develop a habit, otherwise the palace maids and eunuchs will see me and think that I am soft-hearted and easy to bully. That would not be good. What do you think, sisters?"

"...Yes, the Crown Princess is right. Let's go back first."

"Well, Chenlu will go and see you off."
