The princess only wants to get rich and support her family

Suddenly, a slender hand reached out and hugged her waist before she could notice it. "If I hadn't been demoted to this point, you wouldn't have to think about how to change all day long."

She raised her head, her pretty face seemed to be burning with fire: "It's too polite to say that. I was originally hostile to you, but I never thought that you would be moved and willing to change?"

"So stupid."

"It's really stupid."

There was no way. Who told her to be stupid? If he hadn't risked his life to save her, perhaps there wouldn't be this day when they would walk hand in hand on the street like ordinary boyfriend and girlfriend.

"I will not let you lose."

Hu Luanfei was stunned.

Qi Si Liao cleared his throat and said, "Your actions are like a gamble, you are betting your whole life on me without any scruples. If I fail you one day, I think you will lose completely."

"so…"

"Even if I die, I will let you win."

His serious words were so powerful that Hu Luanfei could not calm down the shock in his heart for a long time.

She thought, if this is not love, then what is?

Uncle Niu's car was waiting outside the city gate. Qi Siriao went back and forth and bought many things, including grain seeds, chicks, and many farm tools.

The previous batch of tools were gloriously sacrificed under the day and night labor, so we had to make a new batch.

Qi Siriao has been very busy lately, working in the fields and by the canal. Sometimes he goes into the mountains with a greasy head, but he always comes back covered in blood.

When asked, he said he was hunting a wild boar, but the boar's carcass was nowhere to be seen.

Later, he took two more sets of clothes with him before going into the mountains, so that he would be clean when he came back.

Over time, she became too lazy to observe and focused her attention on the farmland.

He helped as always. As a great warrior king, he was good at both housework and cooking, a good hunter and a good farmer. He got up before dawn to work, and when she went to the fields again, they had already been cultivated by him.

Ten days passed like this, and Hu Luanfei finally found time to go into the mountains as he had promised Baishan Hall.

Early that morning, after Qi Siriao found another excuse to go into the mountains to hunt, she picked up a bamboo basket and a sickle and went out.

Ice silkworms generally grow at altitudes of more than 3,000 to 5,000 meters.

The altitude of Menghu Mountain is not high, but there are ice silkworms there, just not many of them. It takes a lot of effort to find them.

When looking for it, you should squat on the grass, lower your head and look carefully.

According to the illustrated handbook of traditional Chinese medicine, ice silkworms growing in forest meadows lack sufficient sunlight and are often dark yellow in color, while cordyceps growing on grasslands is mainly yellow-brown.

Sometimes, I would dig up a pile, and sometimes, not. After a whole life, my back and waist were sore, and the bamboo basket was only filled with a shallow layer.

"Chong-"

The sound of fighting seemed particularly abrupt in Menghu Mountain.

Hu Luanfei stopped digging and followed the sound. He hid under a big tree at a relatively close distance and quietly poked his head out.

There were falling leaves and clashing swords ahead. A group of people were besieging a person. She was very familiar with that person. It was her good prince...

He moved sideways and kicked out into the air, fiercely kicking the man in black in the face.

The battle was very fierce, with the flashes of swords and the shadows of knives like a dream. He wiped out the evil with his own strength, and the blood of those people flew everywhere, splattering on the fallen leaves and flying in the dust.

Who are those people?

Why do we have to fight with Qi Siliao?

Seeing that he was at a disadvantage, the man in black shouted, "Retreat!"

Peace returned to the mountains and forests.

Qi Siliao shook off the blood stains on the sword. Suddenly, he turned around and asked, "Who!"

Hu Luanfei met his gaze, stared at him with innocent eyes, and responded in panic, "It's me."

He was stunned. After sheathing his sword, he hurried over to help her up. "Why are you here? Didn't you say you were going to stay at home and tinker with the paddy fields?"

After that, he added calmly, "Don't go up the mountain on your own in the future. There are wolves and tigers here, and it's very dangerous."

She bit her lip, her voice choked, "You've been hiding a lot of things from me."

The sound of sobbing gradually became clearer in the quiet forest.

Qi Si Liao wiped away the tears from her eyes and murmured for a moment, "Empress Jiang sent someone to assassinate you."

He suddenly spoke the truth, which made Hu Luanfei unbelievable. She was stunned for a long time before her eyes widened. "I don't remember having any grudge against her."

"As long as Qi Sili is thinking about someone, she will kill them all."

"Does that mean she regards me as an imaginary enemy?"

"Is it just an imaginary thing?" The cold voice concealed the vague emotion in the words, "If I remember correctly, you and Qi Sili had a brief romance."

"No!" As if she was afraid that he would misunderstand her, she blushed and explained, "Although I followed him, I was emotional and polite, and never did anything excessive."

"Huh? Qi Sili would sacrifice himself for you?"

He lifted her chin, stroked her delicate and smooth cheek with his fingertips, and silently curled the corners of her lips.

The handsome face so close to him was so attractive that Hu Luanfei swallowed his saliva. "He, he is not as short of women as you are. He will definitely look for other concubines when he wants."

"But, the woman below is not you, it's boring..."

His breath was blowing against her face, and she couldn't stop it. When Hu Luanfei moved her lips, it was covered.

She was still the same as before, just staring blankly, without any reaction at all.

Qi Si Liao moved away a little bit and told her hoarsely, "Breathe, don't suffocate yourself to death by kissing."

The good atmosphere was shattered by his words. Hu Luanfei held his face with both hands and refused angrily, "Who is born to be able to kiss? No, I won't kiss you, you straight man, you old thing!"

She has never had a boyfriend before and hasn't been to any school, and how dare this guy despise her for not being able to breathe?

I'm so angry, I'm going home!

Hu Luanfei felt embarrassed, touched his burning cheek, and quickly escaped.

Qi Siliao said from behind: "You will come back to the palace with me in a few days."

"No, my life is more important." Her ears were still red and her heart was beating wildly.

He took a few steps forward and held her hand tightly, "With me here, they can't hurt you."

She paused abruptly, thinking of the blood on his body before, "Could they be the 'wild boars' you mentioned?"

He did not answer, his eyes shining slightly under the sunlight. She turned her head to look at his face and suddenly smiled softly, "My lord, you really look like a knight guarding a princess."

"wrong."

"What's wrong?"

"I am your king, not a knight."

There are few kings in the world who are willing to die for you, especially in a capital city where men are superior to women.

So having him in this life is enough.

"By the way, what are you digging?" Seeing her hands full of mud, he couldn't help but frown.

Hu Luanfei gestured for him to look at the bamboo basket, "I promised Baishantang that I would look for ice silkworms."

“This thing is hard to find.”

“It wasn’t easy to find, but I managed to find it a little bit.”
