A worker with a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan travels back in time to ancient times and becomes a pri

Xia Taoyuan and Yingge traveled all the way, sleeping at night and eating and drinking when they were hungry and thirsty, and finally arrived in Lion City in the evening of the fifth day.

There were many soldiers stationed outside Lion City. Xia Taoyuan and Yingge were surrounded as soon as they arrived. They were regarded as spies. No matter how they explained, the soldiers did not believe them. While they were arguing, they heard someone shouting in the distance, "What are you arguing about? Have you forgotten the military order?"

Xia Taoyuan recognized Qingyun's voice and was delighted. She turned around and looked. Who else could it be but Qingyun?

In a blink of an eye, Qingyun arrived in front of them. Hearing the soldier say that the two were spies, he looked at Xia Taoyuan. Although he was dressed as a man, he recognized him at a glance. Qingyun was surprised and happy, and asked, "Why are you here?"

Yingge looked at Xia Taoyuan with a smile. Xia Taoyuan smiled embarrassedly and said, "I just wanted to come and take a look."

"Follow me!" Qingyun asked the two to follow him. After walking for a while, they came to a tent and whispered, "Your Highness is inside." Then he smiled and motioned Xia Taoyuan to go in.

Xia Taoyuan took a deep breath. He hadn't seen him for more than two months, and now he was actually a little nervous.

She gently lifted the door curtain and stepped in.

Looking up, the person he had been thinking about day and night was writing something at his desk. Chu Xingluo had lost a lot of weight and looked much older.

"Did General Lu send any message?" Chu Xingluo thought it was Qingyun and did not look up.

Xia Taoyuan walked over slowly and said, "There is no news from General Lu, but there is news from Princess Jing!"

Chu Xingluo suddenly raised his head when he heard this, and seeing the person in front of him clearly, he was surprised and happy. He jumped over the desk and hugged Xia Taoyuan into his arms without saying a word. God knows how much he missed her!

After a while, Chu Xingluo finally let go of Xia Taoyuan, gently stroked her face, and murmured, "I'm not dreaming, am I?"

Xia Taoyuan had tears in her eyes. She smiled and shook her head, saying, "It's not a dream."

Chu Xingluo smiled faintly and said softly, "I'm writing a letter to you."

Xia Taoyuan smiled and said, "Let me see what you wrote?" Then she walked to the desk and picked up the unfinished letter from Chu Xingluo.

Xia Taoyuan read Chu Xingluo's letter word by word. Every word was filled with concern and every sentence was filled with longing. She made up her mind to stand by Chu Xingluo's side!

"It must have been a hard journey?" Chu Xingluo walked over and asked with concern.

"Yingge takes good care of me, and compared to the dangers you face on the battlefield, this little hardship is nothing?" Xia Taoyuan said, and then she told Chu Xingluo about the situation at home.

Chu Xingluo listened and said softly: "You stay here for a few days and then go back with Yingge. There are dangers everywhere here. I have to worry about your safety all the time while you are here."

"No! I want to stay here with you. I have decided that I will go home with you after we defeat Xiling Kingdom." Xia Taoyuan was firm.

Chu Xingluo didn't say anything else. He knew Xia Taoyuan's temper too well. Once she made a decision, no one could change it. He could agree to other things, but he couldn't let her do what she wanted when it came to her life. For now, he had to appease her first and then think of a solution.

In the evening, Chu Xingluo went to discuss things with Lu Feiyu and Ximen Huan, and Xia Taoyuan stayed in the tent alone.

During this time, Yingge brought Xiao Feng's adopted sons and daughters to see Xia Taoyuan. Xia Taoyuan thanked them and stayed by Chu Xingluo's side to protect his safety.

When Chu Xingluo came back, Qingyun Longyan also came and said that he had vacated a room so that His Highness and the Princess could live in the city.

Xia Taoyuan said: "Don't bother, I'm not that delicate, I can live anywhere, don't ask for special treatment."

Qingyun Longyan was not willing to agree. His Highness had been stationed outside the city with General Ximen and General Lu in order to stabilize the morale of the army. Now that the princess was here, there was no reason to let her live in a tent.

Chu Xingluo also said: "Since the room is vacant, let's move into the city." He wanted Xia Taoyuan to live more comfortably.

Xia Taoyuan agreed to Chu Xingluo's request. It took only a dozen minutes to enter the city.

After settling down, it was already very late at night. Chu Xingluo went out for another patrol before coming back.

A short separation is better than a new marriage, and the two of them spent the night in tenderness and love.

The next day, Xiling Kingdom came again. Xia Taoyuan insisted on seeing them, so Chu Xingluo had no choice but to take her up to the tower. Seeing the huge crowd of Xiling Kingdom soldiers coming over, Xia Taoyuan was extremely shocked. This was much more impressive than what was shown on TV. Seeing the soldiers of the two countries fighting each other, with bloody bodies falling one after another, Xia Taoyuan's scalp went numb.

At this time, a red shadow came riding from a distance, passed through the soldiers of Xiling State, whipped the North Vietnamese soldiers with whips, and then looked up at the tower and shouted, "Chu Xingluo, come down, don't be a coward, you dare not fight me for so many days, are you afraid?"

Qingyun, who was fighting the enemy not far away, spit on the words and shouted, "Ye Linglong, you are so shameless. You can't even beat me, but you can't escape without anyone's help. And you still want to fight with our Highness. I tell you, you are not worthy!"

Ye Linglong snorted and ignored Qingyun, continuing to shout at the tower: "Chu Xingluo, are you scared? Are you afraid that I will catch you and throw you into the prison or that I will eat you?"

Chu Xingluo had a blank expression on his face and ignored Ye Linglong.

Yingge walked up to him and said, "Your Highness, I'm going to meet this princess!"

Chu Xingluo agreed, asked her to find a suitable armor, and told her to be careful.

Yingge smiled and said, "It's okay. She's not wearing armor, so I won't wear it either."

Xia Taoyuan was a little nervous. She held Yingge and told her to be careful and come back if things really didn't work out. Saving her life was the most important thing. Yingge was not only a guard to her now, but also a sister and a friend.

Chu Xingluo patted Xia Taoyuan on the shoulder and comforted her, "Don't worry, Yingge won't lose."

He was not blindly confident, but in the past two months of fighting, Ye Linglong could not beat Qingyun and Longyan, nor could she beat Heilong, Fengwu and Queying. These people were all top masters, and Yingge, the youngest, was better than them. Even Chu Xingluo himself was not sure of defeating Yingge.

Yingge usually uses a short blade, but a short blade is not practical on the battlefield, so she picked up a handy sword, jumped on her horse, and went straight to Ye Linglong.

In a blink of an eye, Yingge arrived in front of Ye Linglong. Ye Linglong sneered twice and said disdainfully: "Are all the princes of the Northern Yue Kingdom so cowardly? For so many days, you dare not fight me in front of the battlefield, and only send some servants."

Yingge smiled and said crisply, "Why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken? You can't even defeat a servant like me, and you still want my Highness to help you?"

Ye Linglong was not angry, she mocked: "So you are a woman, you Beiyue people love to play tricks, you are obviously a woman but pretend to be a man. Chu Xingluo is really cowardly, hiding behind a woman and not daring to come out."

"Stop talking nonsense, take it!" Yingge thrust out the sword in her hand as soon as she finished speaking. Ye Linglong didn't have time to think about it, and dodged Yingge's sword desperately, raising the whip in her hand and whipping Yingge.

Xia Taoyuan's heart was in his throat as he watched from the city wall. He felt relieved when he saw Yingge dodge cleverly.

"Is this woman the princess of Xiling Kingdom?" Xia Taoyuan looked at Chu Xingluo.

Chu Xingluo nodded, his eyes never leaving Yingge.

Seeing him like this, Xia Taoyuan said nothing more and looked at Yingge.

Yingge was really strong, and soon gained the upper hand. Seeing that things were not going well, Ye Linglong exposed a flaw and took the opportunity to escape.

Xia Taoyuan let out a long sigh and said, "You're not going to chase me?"

Chu Xingluo also smiled faintly and said, "My uncle has repeatedly reminded me not to chase after desperate enemies."

Xia Taoyuan thought of Xiao Feng's experience and felt that it was right not to chase him. If he was ambushed and suffered like Xiao Feng, it would not be worth it.

"How long will the fight last?" Xia Taoyuan pointed at the soldiers from both countries who were fighting outside the city.

"Today? They withdrew at noon. It's like this every day." Chu Xingluo said helplessly.

"How long will this war last?" Xia Taoyuan asked again. She didn't want Chu Xingluo to fight on the battlefield. It was too dangerous.

"General Lu said that it shouldn't be long. We haven't suffered any defeat in these three cities in the past half month. Even with the assistance of Dongxia, Xiling Kingdom is somewhat overwhelmed. With our 250,000 troops, as long as we do a good job of defense, they will not be able to break through our city even if they have a million troops." Chu Xingluo said slowly.

"I just hope it will be over soon, otherwise I'll be worried every day." Xia Taoyuan pouted.

Chu Xingluo was amused by her appearance and said, "It won't be long."

At this time Lu Feiyu came over and Xia Taoyuan called him "Brother Lu".

Lu Feiyu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Zhiying. Ye Mengtian is too arrogant. In recent years, Xiling's national strength and military have become stronger than before, so he thinks he is invincible. He actually provoked a dispute for no reason, but he underestimated the strength of our North Vietnam. It has been three months, and we have not suffered any losses, while they have exhausted all their resources. The people in Xiling are complaining and living in misery. They probably won't be able to hold on for much longer."

"How do you know that their people are complaining and living in poverty?" Xia Taoyuan asked.

Simon laughed and said, "Many of their soldiers were killed or wounded. We carried back the injured and saved all those who could be saved. It was up to them to decide whether to stay or go. The soldiers who stayed said so."

Xia Taoyuan finally felt relieved, and she waited quietly for the war to end and return to Yunjun City with Chu Xingluo.
