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

Jiang Li winked, golden light flashing in his eyes, and said mischievously: "Yes, I am just advancing, not transcending the tribulation and flying. Why are you looking at me like that, and why are you kneeling? It makes me feel embarrassed."

Mo Yuan listened to the familiar tone, and struggled to get up. He stretched out a hand in front of him, put it on, and slowly stood up, staring at her without blinking: "Madam, are you really okay?"

"It's okay. Look, I'm not missing any limbs. I'm normal."

"But how come your eyes turned golden?"

"What, what are you talking about?"

Mo Yuan stood in front of her, bent down and took a closer look, and said seriously: "It's gold. Madam, your eyes have changed color, and there seems to be lightning flashing. It's... strange. Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

Jiang Li's mind moved, and she took out a bronze mirror from the space. She took a look at it, and her eyes widened instantly. The person in the mirror also blinked back and forth with her, and blurted out a swear word: "Fuck, why did the advancement change the eyeballs?"

"Ahhh, where are my black grape eyes? Who wants this golden color? I don't look like a living person. Damn it, God damn it. Something must have been done to me. It's impossible for a level 7 eye to change color."

"A Yuan, help me, we are no longer the same species. These eyes are too obvious. Anyone who sees them will doubt whether I am a human being."

Mo Yuan was silent, not knowing what to say for a moment. This didn't seem to be the point, but his mind was a little confused as to what the point was, and he couldn't grasp it for a moment, so he didn't know what to ask.

I raised my head and felt the raindrops falling on my face, feeling icy cold.

"My dear, it's raining. Let's go back early to avoid catching a cold. That would be bad. Let's go home..."

Jiang Li put away the bronze mirror, held his hand, and said anxiously: "A Yuan, why do I feel that I look less and less like a human? Do you think I am a monster? Which good person has eyes like this? It's really scary to look at."

Mo Yuan looked at her with a helpless look, "No, since ancient times, golden eyes belong to gods, not demons. Let's go home first. I'm afraid we can't hide what happened today."

"The good thing is that the commotion caused by Chuchu before will be directly covered up by my wife this time, which is also a small benefit. It also silences the spy by the way."

"Yeah, that makes sense. We're going home, and my husband caught me and took you flying."

Before Mo Yuan could react, his feet flew into the air and the surrounding scenery quickly receded. He opened his eyes to see more clearly, but he couldn't. You can imagine how fast the speed was.

In a blink of an eye, the two returned to the general's mansion and landed in the yard. Jiang Li hid behind a tree, looking sneaky: "Husband, go by yourself. I don't want to go out and scare people in this state for the time being."

"...Okay, then go back and rest."

As soon as the voice fell, Mo Yuan didn't feel anything. He turned around and saw that there was no one there. He was a little surprised: "After the lady advanced, her speed became more and more terrifying."

He adjusted his mood and strode out. After entertaining the guests, he met the puzzled eyes of his family members. Mo Yuan sighed and slowly explained the matter: "That's it. My wife doesn't want to come out for the time being."

Qiao Shu pursed her lips, a little worried: "But I'm worried that she'll scare us. No, we're all family. No matter what she looks like, we're still family. Third brother, you should stay with her and don't let it get to your head."

"It's just a different eye color. What does it matter? The Third Princess' eyes are said to be like moonlight. If Xiao Li's eyes were golden, it would be divine, an amazing color."

"Yes, no matter what sister Li looks like, we are still family."

Mo Yuan's eyes were complicated, and he shook his head: "That's not what I meant. It's those eyes. If you see them for the first time, your legs will go weak and you will want to kneel down. I'm afraid that you are not ready, and it will be embarrassing when the time comes."

Everyone: “…So magical?”

What should I do? I want to go and see it even more.

Seeing them eager to try, Mo Yuan felt tired and stretched out his hand: "Mom, give Chuchu to me. I'll leave this place to you. I'll go take a look. Don't come for the time being, so as not to embarrass my wife."

"Oh, okay, Third brother, you should stay with us more."

Early next morning

After Jiang Li got up, he looked at the person in the mirror. It was still the golden eyes. He sighed and thought, "Never mind, I'll just get used to it." He opened the door and faced the yard. Everyone was looking at him in unison, and he was a little dazed.

"Father, mother, second brother, and eldest brother, why are you all here? Do you have something to talk to me about?"

Several people looked into her eyes. The pressure was so great that they could not help but kneel down. It was even more stressful than facing His Majesty. They felt better only when they turned their faces away. Mo Jue said gently, "Nothing. It was an imperial decree from the court."

"Your Majesty knows what happened yesterday and is a little worried."

Jiang Li nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. I'll go to the palace and explain to my brother. Chuchu should stay at home. She is too young to be exposed to the wind if brought into the palace."

"Mom, I won't be back at noon. I'll eat directly in the palace."

Inside the palace

Jiang Yu was reviewing memorials when a gust of wind blew by. He subconsciously raised his head and saw a familiar figure sitting on a stool, eating cakes with a plate in hand. He smiled helplessly, "Imperial sister, why are you here? I heard about the forest in the suburbs."

Jiang Li hummed, "I did it. It wasn't a tribulation, it was just an advancement. Who knew it would make such a big noise? It scared me."

"...!"

"If this matter gets out, it won't be long before Yun Country sets its sights on us. Are you prepared? You can't let them continue to grow. By then, it will be easy for them to annex Yun Country."

"Let it spread. It's such a big event that we can't hide it. Don't worry, my brother. I'm well prepared. No matter which country you come from, don't expect to return safely. I came to the palace to ask for news about the person who cast the curse."

Jiang Yu's face was solemn when he heard this, and he shook his head: "I can't find anything. Every time I was about to find some information, the clues were cut off. Even if the people sent out came back by chance, they died not long after. The death was tragic, and the cause could not be found."

Jiang Li paused and said softly, "It should be a curse. It is a vicious method. Since we can't find out, let's not investigate for the time being to avoid unnecessary sacrifices. There is no point."

"Only when we become stronger can we not be afraid of those tricks."

"Well, why do you keep your head down? Are you hurt?"

"...No, my royal brother, are you sure you want me to look up? Then don't regret it. Don't blame me if you are embarrassed. It has nothing to do with me."

Jiang Yu looked confused: "What are you talking about, girl?"

Jiang Li raised his head, staring at him with his golden eyes, and blinked: "How is your Royal Brother? Are they very sacred eyes? After seeing them, do you have the urge to kneel down and worship?"

"Oh, no, you'd better lower your head. These eyes are irritating to me. Black ones are more pleasing to the eye."
