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

Five years have passed

Because of its trade, Qi State had already amassed a large amount of wealth from various countries and became the richest country. The people were free from the suffering of war and lived and worked in peace and contentment, creating a prosperous scene.

Because of Jiang Li, the women of Qi State had more freedom than those in other countries. They could go out of the courtyard and work to earn money. With the ability to earn money, they spoke with confidence and their spirits improved a lot.

After Xiao Chuchu turned three and could remember things, Jiang Li taught her how to control her energy and draw it out of her body little by little to help her repair the cracks. After two years, she had already repaired them and returned to her former appearance...

In the ice cellar

Two figures walked in. Looking at the frozen head, Jiang Li smiled heartlessly: "Hey, your name is Li Shang, right? I've locked you up for five years. Today is the Lantern Festival. I'll take you out to see the beauty of this prosperous world."

"Although you only have one head, it doesn't matter. Just take a look at this lively scene and don't go out and scare people. Come on, let's go out."

Mo Yuan hummed and asked softly, "Chu Chu was not brought along. If she knew that we led the group out without her, she would probably make a scene again when she comes back."

Jiang Li waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, Chuchu is at big brother's place, she still needs to learn the Thirty-Six Stratagems, so she doesn't have time to go out with us. Besides, just don't tell her, and bring some food when you come back."

She didn't want to take the little girl with her. If she took her out, she would just cling to A Yuan, and the father and daughter would be very affectionate with each other. She would be like a supporting maid, following behind with things in her hands. It was very unpleasant to think about it.

It would be better to take a leader out with her, to let him see how beautiful the world is without him causing chaos, how happy the people are, and how exciting it is. What if he goes crazy from excitement? Then, she would be able to rest assured even if she died a hundred years later.

This ghost thing can't be killed, so we can only use mental stimulation.

Li Shang was completely bewildered. He was staying in this damn place. No one was talking and it was dead silent. He didn't know what year it was. It turned out that five years had passed. How could it go so fast? What was happening outside...what was happening outside now?

Jiang Li took a piece of cloth, wrapped the head, tied a bow, and nodded with satisfaction: "Hey, not bad, your face is still very beautiful. It's great to have your head back. It's much better looking than arms and legs."

There was a slight chill behind me, and my back felt a little cold.

She looked back and met Mo Yuan's cold eyes. She listened to his sour words: "My wife, is my husband not as good-looking as him? This kind of ghost, no matter how good-looking it is, is not a human being."

Jiang Li threw the head away, walked over and pulled his sleeve, shaking it and acting like a spoiled child: "Oh, I was just joking, why are you still angry? Of course my husband is the most handsome, it's just a head, what can I do to a head?"

"Let's go, it's getting late. If we go too late, we might not be able to see the Lantern Festival..."

The two of them turned their heads and flew out.

The Lantern Festival is very lively

Li Shang showed his two eyes, frowned at Tai Ping Sheng Shi, and was silent for a while. He couldn't help but scolded in a low voice: "You Qi country is like this, how can a woman go out without wearing a veil? It's simply against morals."

"...??"

Jiang Li was struck by lightning and said speechlessly, "Are you sick? I'll show you what this peaceful and prosperous world looks like without you doing evil. Why are you staring at the woman? I'm not saying anything bad about you."

"You're just a head left. Even if you have some ideas, you can't do anything. Why do you pick on others? If you keep talking, I'll press the cesspool for you and let you drink it. Let's see whether it's your mouth that stinks or the cesspool that stinks."

Hearing this, Li Shang shut up instantly. Only a crazy woman could do such a thing. He could accept being dismembered, imprisoned, and not seeing the sun all day, but he absolutely could not accept being confined to a cesspool.

That was trampling his dignity into the cesspool. He could not accept such humiliation. He better shut up. When this crazy woman died, no one would suppress him anymore. Then he would destroy the world.

Mo Yuan held her hand, and the two of them strolled along the way, laughing and joking: "I want to eat this, and this, oh, that one is delicious too, A Yuan, I want the lanterns, you go and guess the riddle."

"Okay, just wait here obediently."

Jiang Li was holding the stinky tofu in his hand. Hearing the occasional retching sound, he instantly lost his appetite. He lowered his head and scolded in a low voice: "Li Shang, are you sick? You vomit when others are eating. I don't even have an appetite to eat."

Li Shang also felt aggrieved. He was very happy to be able to come out and take a look, but this crazy woman had to eat stinky food instead of anything else. He felt so disgusted because it was so stinky.

"Ugh, I didn't mean to do that. Who told you to eat this? It tastes like a cesspool. Are you a woman? How can you be so vulgar? And why did you give me your leftovers?"

"Tsk, what's wrong with giving it to you? You only have one head. It won't make any difference if you eat it. You don't have to worry about gaining weight or having a hard time managing your figure. Besides, I'm doing this for your own good. I want you to taste more flavors."

Jiang Li exhaled and said with emotion: "You should eat more delicious food and feel the beauty of the world. It will be good for you in the future. If it is really destroyed, you like to see the scorched earth and no people."

Li Shang was just about to say that he liked it. He was a man who loved killing. Corpses everywhere and rivers of blood were a great enjoyment for him. What nonsense was this crazy woman talking about?

Not long after, Mo Yuan came back. The two of them were walking around and eating, and soon their hands were full. Mo Yuan clapped his hands, and Leng Feng appeared beside him, reaching out to take the things, and also... the head.

The hands holding the cloth bag were shaking. He pursed his lips and said nothing. He followed behind him and looked elsewhere, except at the bag. He was afraid that he would drop the things if he was not careful.

Li Shang's eyes rolled around, bewitching: "Your name is Leng Feng, right? Do you want to live forever? As long as you can help me do a few things, you can have wealth and glory, or live forever in the future."

Leng Feng glanced down and met the pair of red eyes. He sneered, "For someone like you, being torn into pieces is unnecessary. It's better to die early and reincarnate than to be immortal."

…A decisive blow!!

Li Shang fell silent for a moment, his eyes dimmed, his head drooped, as if he was over-stimulated and had no interest in life.

Several people came to the top of the high tower and looked at the sky full of sky lanterns. Jiang Li snuggled in Mo Yuan's arms, with a happy look on his face, muttering something in a low voice. This warm scene directly hurt Li Shang's eyes.

He said in a low, hoarse voice: "Take me away. I don't want to see them. You just want to torture me, right? You might as well give me a quick death. Oh, I almost forgot, you can't kill me at all."

Jiang Li suddenly appeared beside him and smiled sinisterly, "I can't kill you, but I can humiliate you and torture you. There are still decades to go, and one day I will be able to torture you to the point of insanity."

"A madman, no matter how powerful he is, is not a big threat."

Li Shang: ...I’m so angry, I might as well just die!
