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

An unknown amount of time had passed before Jiang Li was completely drained. He felt as if every inch of his bones were cracked and he had no strength left. Everything went black before his eyes and he completely lost consciousness. When he woke up again, he was being held in someone's arms.

Mo Yuan pulled at the fox fur and asked softly, "How are you? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? Are you cold?"

She opened her mouth to speak, but found her voice was hoarse. She tilted her neck and looked accusingly, it was all his fault, he was so evil, he had to force her to scream, and even after she screamed, he still wouldn't let her go.

"Ahem, my lady, take one of these to moisten your throat. We won't go back tonight, but watch the sunrise tomorrow morning. Otherwise, I'm afraid we will be separated again and it will be hard to have such an opportunity again."

Jiang Li leaned on his chest, watching the sky slowly darken. A hand was gently massaging his waist, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Press harder. Where are we going to sleep tonight?"

Mo Yuan raised the corners of his mouth, looking satisfied: "Well, it's OK to use the ground as a mat and the sky as a blanket. My lady, don't you think this experience is more interesting? We have never slept outside before, so we can give it a try."

"...You are serious."

"Seriously, shhh, look at the stars."

"Beautiful stars."

"It will be there in a moment. I will tell you a story. You can sleep for a while. When you wake up, there will be food stars. I will accompany you."

Jiang Li felt his eyelids were a little heavy and slowly fell asleep.

The two of them stayed on the mountain for a day and a night, and only rushed back the next day, heading straight for the backyard. After Mo Yuan settled the people down, he came to the city wall and looked at the Yun State camp not far away, his eyes as calm as water.

Gu Yi stood beside him and said, "General Mo, we have received news from the north and south. The Yu Kingdom and Mobei are here, and the barbarians are on their way. The siege is about to be completed. Will the Qi Kingdom..."

"No, although it's beyond our expectations, it's not completely impossible to win."

Is General Mo too confident? It is difficult for Qi State to deal with one country alone, let alone at the same time. Don't forget that other countries also have their own masters. How can they be their opponents on the battlefield?

"In three days, we must resist the Yun Kingdom and suppress the Venerable. Otherwise, the princess will be too busy to do anything. Kuishan will guard the north, the shadow guards will guard the east, and the general will guard the west. The princess needs to go to the south. If we are too late, we can only use weapons to attack. It is not without any chance of winning."

[East - Shadow Guard, West - Mo Yuan, South - Jiang Li, North - Kuishan]

Gu Yi remained silent. He thought there was a chance of winning, but it was probably not high.

The two stood on the wall in silence for a long time until a soldier came up and said respectfully, "General Mo, the princess has woken up and wants to see you. She has something important to discuss. I wonder if you are now..."

Mo Yuan turned decisively and returned to the City Lord's Mansion. Looking at the lively people, he smiled and said, "My wife, why don't you sleep a little longer? Is there anything you want to discuss with your husband?"

"It's okay, I'm just a little worried about how to stop the war. There are still two days left, and then the war will start. If I can force those venerables to retreat, then even if the Yun Kingdom wants to fight, won't they be a little afraid?"

"Yes, so in two days, we must win the battle of the Venerables."

Jiang Li frowned and looked at him, puzzled: "We? What does this mean?"

Mo Yuan raised his lips slightly and looked at her steadily: "Of course we go together. Even if I don't have those abilities, I have Papa and Diao Diao so I won't be left behind. After all, I can't let you go alone."

"No, I'll just go by myself. Don't worry, I can handle it."

"No, my husband wants to go with me."

"you sure?"

"Yes, it's confirmed. We are husband and wife. After this battle, you will go to the southern border to face Si Ling. Someone has to guard Yancheng, and no one is more suitable than your husband."

Jiang Li frowned, his eyes full of worry. One person either went to the south, and the other stayed in Yancheng. It was always difficult to have both. They would definitely have to face the two most difficult countries.

As for the other two directions, there is nothing to be afraid of as we have enough weapons at hand.

Mo Yuan reached out his hand, gently smoothed her frowned brows, and comforted her: "Don't worry, go to the south and talk to Si Ling about the black-robed man. If you can, bring as many people as you can. Our real opponent is the one hiding in the dark."

"Disputes between countries can be resolved after they are resolved, and the people hiding behind them can be slowly negotiated."

"Okay, I get it. Let's work together in two days to suppress these venerables first. Then I will go find Si Ling. If he insists on fighting after knowing everything, then we will be mortal enemies."

There was a flash of murderous intent in Jiang Li's eyes. She didn't want to confront Si Ling, and even less did she want to confront Sister Su. But after all, they were on opposite sides. If they couldn't fight together, they could only be enemies. It all depended on who had tougher means.

Mo Yuan hummed, "If we can talk, we can work together to deal with it. If not, then we can only fight. We have so many things in our hands, we won't necessarily lose, but it will only benefit the people in the dark."

"Well, I have sent people to investigate. If there is any clue about the black-robed man, their lair will be wiped out. Only then can I feel at ease. Otherwise, there will always be a pair of eyes watching in the dark, which is really disgusting."

The two leaned against each other, enjoying the final peace.

two days later

On the battlefield outside the city gate

There were only two people on Qiguo's side, but there were dozens of people on the opposite side, looking at them with contempt. Wen Ruosheng waved the folding fan in his hand and said, "It's been a long time since we last met, Princess. I see that you seem to be more powerful."

Jiang Li pulled the corner of his mouth and said in a relaxed tone: "Well, thanks to your comparison, otherwise I can't show how powerful I am."

"Haha, this isn't the right time to talk nonsense."

"Then let's start fighting, so as not to waste time."

Wen Ruosheng glanced at the others and waved the folding fan in his hand with a smile on his face. He looked relaxed and did not seem to be here to fight but to travel. He exuded a sense of ease.

Jiang Li blew a whistle, looked at the falling eagle, and patted it with his hand: "Teach them a lesson later. Remember to only hurt people and not kill them. They are still useful, so don't kill them."

"Haha, the princess actually let an eagle do it instead of doing it herself. She is really cowardly. Is she afraid that she can't defeat the enemy? In this case, even if she wins, it is not a fair victory."

"Wen Ruosheng, do you want to listen to what you are saying? There are so many of you beating me up, and you don't allow me to find help. Isn't that an unfair victory? Stop being so hypocritical."

Wen Ruosheng was speechless for a moment after being confronted. He looked at the gap between the two sides and thought, well, his side really had more people. If he really won, it would indeed be an unfair victory.

"Princess, do you want to gamble?"

Jiang Li raised his eyebrows: "Hey, that's interesting, what do you want to bet on?"
