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

In the Qi Kingdom Court

Jiang Yu's face was full of smiles, his eyes were filled with a bit of pride, he turned his head to look at his own sister who was gnawing on a pig's trotter beside him, he felt much more pleasing to the eye, his voice was gentle.

"Li'er, you have done a great deed this time. Once trade is opened, those things of Qi will surely be sold. It will be much easier to make money then. With a full treasury, Qi will naturally become stronger very quickly."

"Just tell me what you want."

While chewing on a pig's trotter, Jiang Li said casually, "Well, I haven't been an emperor yet, so I don't know what it feels like. Can you lend me the throne for a few days? Apart from this, I don't want anything else."

"I'm not bragging, your treasury is not as rich as mine. In terms of power, I am the eldest princess, I also have military power, and I am the lord, a position above everyone else. I really can't imagine what I want."

Everyone's mouth twitched: "......!!"

The ministers' faces changed instantly. How could a woman be an emperor? The status of women would certainly be raised in the future. Men have been superior to women since ancient times. Why should it change with them? It is absolutely not allowed.

This kind of thing that shakes the status of men must be stopped, otherwise women will climb over men in the future. Thinking of the wives and concubines at home, they are no longer as docile as before, which gives me a headache.

An old man stepped forward and looked at Jiang Li with dissatisfaction in his eyes: "Princess, this matter is of great importance. How can you joke about it? Since ancient times, no woman has ever been emperor, even for just a few days."

"If the news gets out, the world will be in chaos, and women will become even more rampant. They will not be willing to stay in the backyard. If they come out, it will violate the rules set by our ancestors."

Others echoed: "Yes, this is against the will of heaven."

Jiang Li was upset when she heard this. She was just joking and teasing her brother, but why did these old guys have to make a big deal out of it? Well, she was determined to rebel, so let's see what they can do.

"Oh, I am the most powerful Lord. If it weren't for me, you would have turned into bloody corpses long ago. How could you stand here and talk nonsense? I have no interest in the throne, but seeing how you reacted, I have to sit on it."

She raised her head and looked at Jiang Yu: "Brother, I just want to sit on the dragon throne as a reward for me. What do you think?"

Jiang Yu lowered his eyes and thought, hiding the joy in his eyes. Okay, this is great. He has never been out of the palace to see what the people are like. Every day he is either reviewing memorials or writing memorials. It is a rare opportunity that he can trick this girl.

Ahem, of course it's not a trap, he just wants to take a break and take the queen out for some fun. There's no reason for him to suffer so much and be trapped in the palace while his sister can go out and play. It's not fair, he wants to go out and play too.

He coughed lightly and said with a straight face: "Well, I have thought about this matter and I can agree to it, but my sister has to agree to one thing for me. You have to negotiate for trade, and the money you earn will go to the national treasury. How about that?"

Jiang Li blinked and nodded: "It's OK, but I don't know how to talk about business. It might be better to leave this matter to my eldest brother. He is very thoughtful and suitable for talking about business."

Mo Jue: ...Actually, when it comes to business, it really has nothing to do with how much one has in mind!

"Okay, I promise you, then the limit is ten days. When my sister is in this position, you must also approve the memorials I want to approve. If you don't understand, you can ask Defu."

"That's natural. I'm just playing around. I'll return the throne to you in ten days."

Jiang Yu tried hard to restrain the corners of his mouth that wanted to rise, and said seriously: "Don't worry, ministers, the emperor's sister is just playful. Now the world is peaceful, it's okay for her to sit in this position for a few days."

Seeing that they wanted to talk, he raised his hand to interrupt them: "Okay, my dear ministers, you know that if the imperial sister really wanted to rebel, she could take the throne at any time. Now she is just playful, so there is no need to worry too much."

Oh, no one can stop him, he is set to leave the palace and have fun this time.

Seeing this, the ministers sighed and said nothing more.

Down towards the back

Jiang Yu was afraid that she would go back on her word, so he started packing up his things after returning, and left the palace with the queen's shadow guard. Jiang Li stayed behind to attend the morning court and review memorials. He got up earlier than the chickens and slept later than the dogs for the first three days, but he regretted it after all the trouble.

When I wanted to find someone at this time, I found that I couldn't find him.

Jiang Li was stunned for a moment. After coming to his senses, he asked with a blank look in his eyes: "Brother, Yuan, tell me, have you been fooled by my brother? It's not easy to sit on the throne. It's more tiring than being in prison. At least you don't have to use your brain in prison."

"I'm afraid if I make a mistake in reviewing these memorials, many people will suffer. Please help me review them, and hurry up to find my brother and his wife. I'm going crazy. Why are there so many things about the harem and the previous dynasty?"

He held his head with both hands, looking like he was about to collapse.

Mo Jue said helplessly, "I asked my third brother to come and review the memorials. I am too busy to help. The envoys from Yu Country are here. I have to go and pick them up and make a good fortune to replenish the national treasury. I really don't have time to care about these things."

Jiang Li rubbed his face and muttered quietly: "It's okay, big brother, you go and do your work. I can hold on for a while. It's only ten days, it will be over soon, you go and do your work."

"Okay, Third Brother, please help me out a little more."

"Yes, brother, I know."

After enduring ten days, the couple finally got the person they had been waiting for back. After packing up their things, they left in a hurry without being urged by the ministers. They thought that the throne should be given to someone else, as not everyone could sit on it and it was too torturous.

Jiang Li took Mo Yuan and left the city before dawn. If they didn't run, they would have endless work to do, which would be boring. They might as well go traveling early.

General's Mansion

A delicate little girl ran out with her short legs. After searching the house for a while but not finding anyone, she burst into tears: "Dad and mom ran away again. Why didn't they take Chuchu with them? Woohoo, I don't want to study anymore. I want to go out and play."

As soon as Mo Jue entered the mansion, a little pink girl rushed towards him. He subconsciously reached out to catch her, picked her up, and said lovingly, "Chu Chu, why did you run out by yourself? You can't do this without a guard by your side. You're not a good boy."

She put her arms around his neck and cried loudly, "Uncle, my parents don't want me anymore. They didn't take me out. They sneaked out to play. There's no one at home. Woo woo, Chu Chu doesn't like them anymore."

"...Someone, go see if the princess and the general are at home?"

"To answer the eldest young master's question, a carriage left the mansion before dawn this morning. The maid said that the princess and the general were going out to play for a while and might not be back for a year or two."

Mo Jue's smile froze and almost collapsed. He held back and coaxed, "Chu Chu, where do you want to go to play? Uncle will take you there, okay? Your parents...are playful and disobedient. When we get back, uncle will definitely teach them a lesson."
