Princess Promotion

Yao Chuguang felt that she couldn't just sit there and wait for death, so she tried to observe for the next two days to see if there was any way to make a living.

In the end, nothing was gained, and a few scoundrels were almost attracted. Fortunately, it happened in broad daylight and Fu Hongxuan was strict in his administration, so they just made a few verbal remarks and left without daring to do anything.

Yao Chuguang felt that he couldn't go on like this, otherwise he would be left with nothing.

The deputy general who was with Fu Hongxuan that day was called Li Yi. He often came here to patrol. After all, this was a refugee area and if there was no proper supervision, it would be easy for something to happen if there were too many people.

That day, Yao Chuguang finally waited for Li Yi to lead his troops to patrol. He immediately ran up and said, "Deputy General Li, please stay!"

Li Yi thought she had finally arrived, but his face remained calm as he stopped and asked, "Miss Shen, is there something wrong?"

When the general brought Yao Chuguang back and put him in the post station, he told him to keep an eye on Yao Chuguang. At that time, he felt that there was nothing suspicious about Yao Chuguang. His breathing was heavy, and his fingers were slender without calluses. It was obvious at a glance that he did not know martial arts.

With her fair skin, she must be a spoiled rich lady. She doesn't look like a spy at all.

Li Yi felt that there was no need to waste time. If he had any suspicion, he would just arrest her and interrogate her. The woman did not look like a tough person.

Fu Hongxuan told Li Yi to hold his ground and continue observing, saying, "That's why we can't alert the enemy. Perhaps what she showed you was just a facade. If she's really a spy, she must have been trained. It won't be easy to pry her open. It's better to wait until she lets down her guard and reveals herself."

Li Yi didn't expect that he would feel safe after just two days, so he started to carry out the next plan.

Seeing some hesitation on Yao Chuguang's face, Li Yi asked his subordinates to continue patrolling to create opportunities for Yao Chuguang.

Yao Chuguang felt a little embarrassed. She couldn't repay someone for saving her life, and yet she kept bothering them. However, she still spoke carefully, "Lieutenant General Li, this is the thing. I didn't have much money with me when I escaped from Yicheng. It's not a good idea to just sit around and wait for my family to come looking for me. If they don't come looking for me, I won't have enough money to go back when the war is over."

Li Yi thought to himself: I can start with money and create an image of a weak and helpless woman who can't do heavy work, so she comes to ask him to find a job for her, preferably a job as a maid in the general's mansion, so that I can sneak into the general's mansion naturally.

Such a beautiful and weak woman, with the blessing of life-saving grace, this strategy cannot be said to be brilliant, but it is in line with common sense and can be used for offense or defense!

Just when Li Yi thought that Yao Chuguang would ask him to help find a job, Yao Chuguang suddenly changed the subject.

"I'd like to set up a small food stall nearby and sell some food. I wonder if that's feasible."

Yao Chuguang thought that she could not do physical work such as washing clothes, chopping wood and carrying goods. She knew a little bit about embroidery, painting and playing the piano, but these skills were only useful in places with fireworks. Going to those places would be seeking death.

She couldn't even think of selling herself as a maid. After all, she was a princess of a country. If she fell to this point and her identity was exposed, would she still have any dignity?

Therefore, setting up a stall to sell food is the only feasible option. The reason why we have to find Li Yi is that this is his territory after all. Even in modern times, setting up a street stall is subject to the control of urban management, not to mention in this dynasty where the status of merchants is low.

If someone comes to cause trouble after they have passed the clear road, she dare not use Fu Hongxuan's name, but she can still use this deputy general Li Yi to calm the situation, which is enough for her small stall.

Li Yi was shocked! Why didn't she play by the rules? Could she really be an ordinary merchant girl?

No! She must be a spy, otherwise the general wouldn't have told him to keep an eye on this woman.

Li Yi was puzzled but nodded and said, "As long as Miss Shen doesn't break the law and doesn't occupy the storefront, it's fine."

After saying that, he nodded and gave Yao Chuguang a few more instructions before turning around and walking back.
