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

The little palace maid looked around vigilantly and briefly recounted what had happened, especially the matter about the martial arts training ground. Just by hearing about it, she felt her scalp tingling. She wondered why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could tolerate the Crown Princess so much.

A gleam of light flashed across Emperor Yun’s cloudy eyes.

"It seems that the prince wanted to kill her, but she was too skilled and failed. Haha, I didn't expect that the evil creature could be so embarrassed."

"Come here, listen to me. Come here less often in the future, spend more time with the Crown Princess, and get to know her better. Maybe she will be my only hope of getting out."

The little maid nodded repeatedly: "Okay, Your Majesty, I will remember this. Please be patient, and I will find a way to let you go."

Emperor Yun looked at her with a complicated expression. He never expected that the only time he felt pity when he left the palace, he bought this little girl and brought her back to the palace. Now, this girl has become his only hope for survival.

"Well, don't worry, protect yourself. Even if that evil creature hates me, at most he will suffer some minor injuries, and he won't die. It's getting late now, you should go back quickly."

"If you have nothing to do, try not to come over here, so as not to be discovered by him."

The little maid lowered her head and said respectfully, "Yes, I know."

I walked back carefully along the path and lay on the bed, finally feeling relieved.

Inside the Palace of Flowing Light

Jiang Li was wearing a gorgeous outfit, with a lot of golden hairpins in his hair, which looked like a feather duster. He looked at Bi Yue with resentful eyes and sighed, "It's too heavy. Let's change to a simpler bun."

Bi Yue blinked and was about to start, but was stopped by a nanny beside her: "Crown Princess, it's not that I want to disobey you, this is the palace rule. If you are too plain, you will be laughed at."

Oh, what a joke, doesn't that mean that someone will find fault with her, which is good, but if you don't find fault with her or bother her, that would be so boring and not fun.

"What a joke! Who dares to be so bold? Just kill him. Don't say anything more. Madam, please stay aside. Chenlu, come here and help me change my hair into a simple bun."

Bi Yue walked over, pushed the nanny aside, quickly took off her hairpin, took the comb and started combing her hair. After a while, she had a simple bun and only inserted a jade hairpin into it.

"Master, do you think it's okay?"

Jiang Li glanced at the plain-looking people inside, who looked like they were going to a funeral, nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile, "Chenlu, go and bring me the moon-white dress I made last time. I like the color white, which is pure and untainted."

Phew, I’m afraid the master is going to play a trick on me again.

"Okay, I'll get it right away."

Soon, Jiang Li arranged his clothes, looked at himself in the mirror and was very satisfied. He turned around and asked with a smile: "Mammy, do you think I look good?"

The dressing nanny looked over and saw the woman's cold face, set off by her moon-white dress, so fresh and refined that one could not take their eyes away. It was truly a peerless beauty, and even she was a little dazzled by the sight. She was indeed beautiful.

It just wasn't against palace rules, but she couldn't say it. If she did, who knew if this fickle person would break her neck.

He lowered his head and said respectfully, "The Crown Princess's beauty is beyond ordinary people. With the addition of golden hairpins and step-shaking ornaments, it would have overshadowed the guest. Now it is just right."

Seeing that she was so tactful, Jiang Li didn't say anything more and waved his hand: "Chen Lu, follow me to the palace banquet."

Palace Banquet

The stage was already full of people, and the ministers were whispering to each other, "I heard that the little princess of Yu Kingdom is very beautiful, but I don't know why she hasn't come yet. Maybe she is dead and can't come, but there is no news out of the palace."

"I don't know. It's normal for a crown princess to die. The crown prince has married several crown princesses, none of whom lived for more than a month. Even if this one is not dead, she is not far from death."

As I was talking, I heard a gasp from somewhere. I subconsciously looked over there, and there was a flash of surprise in my eyes. I stared straight at that person. It seemed like the person walked in on the moonlight. She was so beautiful that she didn't seem like an ordinary person, and people didn't dare to desecrate her.

Feng Su sat at the top, looking at the person who was slowly approaching. His hand holding the wine glass paused, his eyes full of amazement. It was as if a feather was sliding gently across the calm lake of his heart, and there was a strange feeling.

He turned his head away and said in a cold voice, "The Crown Princess is here. Come and sit down. The palace dress you are wearing today... is very elegant and suitable for the Crown Princess."

Jiang Li grinned upon hearing that, revealing his glowing white teeth. His otherworldly aura instantly dissipated. Everyone felt as if something in front of their eyes had instantly shattered.

Oh, it's their hearts that are broken.

Feng Su's face darkened upon seeing this, and he stared at her intently: "Crown Princess, this is a palace banquet, and there are some rules that must be followed. Look at what the other concubines are wearing, and you are a little out of place."

"Oh, but Your Highness just said it was beautiful, why has it changed now? It really makes me sad. Don't say it again, or I will cry in front of you."

"...!!"

Everyone: He’s good-looking. It would be nice if he were mute.

Jiang Li sat down and looked at the delicacies on the table. She pretended not to notice the burning gazes falling on her and picked up the chopsticks to eat.

Eating is the most important thing in the world. It is useless to just look at it without eating. She is not a fool. It is just right that these people do not eat. It would be nice if they all go into her stomach.

Jiejiejie~~~

Seeing her like this, Feng Su moved closer and reminded her through gritted teeth: "Crown Princess, you are my face now, please be careful with your words and actions, don't lose your sense of propriety and embarrass me in front of my subjects."

Jiang Li looked at him, his watery eyes full of innocence.

"Your Highness, these dishes are served for people to eat, so what's wrong with them eating them? These are all grown by the people with great effort. If they are not eaten, wouldn't it be a waste?"

"You are the crown prince, but I think you have never farmed before, so you don't know the truth that every grain of rice is hard-earned. But it's okay, it's enough for me to know. If Your Highness doesn't want to eat your share, you can give it to me."

"Well, even though it's a burden, I'll endure it."

After saying that, he continued to eat. His nonchalant look made Feng Su very angry, but he couldn't do anything in front of the minister, so he had to hold back his anger.

Feng Su exhaled, clapped his hands, and his voice was full of coldness: "Let the dancers come in, the palace banquet begins!"

Soon the sound of stringed instruments began to sound, and the dancers on the stage began to dance gracefully. Everyone was watching intently except Jiang Li. The generals concentrated on eating. The generals were rough and could not understand what was happening, so they just ate.

From time to time, he looked up with surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect that the Crown Princess was such a casual person. Of course, she was pleasing to the eye. This time, the Crown Prince finally chose someone he liked for the Yun Kingdom.
