Rebirth of a Lost Nation: Princess, Please Respect Yourself

As the lips and teeth touched, I don't know whose lips were broken, and the smell of blood bloomed on the taste buds.

It was just a kiss, and Ning Yunxiao let go of Jiang Lige breathlessly, moved back and sat on the other end of the bed frame, with bright red blood forming a sudden mark on his lips.

He seemed not to care, his eyes were honest and passionate.

"Okay, I won't argue with the princess anymore."

"..." Very good, Jiang Lige is made to play the role of the villain.

Never mind, never mind. This guy is drunk, and it’s no different from being bitten by a dog!

Jiang Lige quickly comforted himself, pursed his lips and decided to swallow his anger, while moving back a little without saying a word.

"How much did the prince drink?" Jiang Lige decided to change the subject to avoid someone's bestiality. "He looks drunk. How about I ask Songyue to make some sobering soup and bring it in?"

"No need." Ning Yunxiao shook his head, sat cross-legged opposite Jiang Lige, and explained to Jiang Lige seriously: "I'm not drunk."

"...That's weird."

Jiang Lige secretly rolled his eyes at Ning Yunxiao and was about to complain about Ning Yunxiao, but his thoughts suddenly changed and he had other thoughts.

He wiped his lips with his sleeve, then avoided Ning Yunxiao and jumped off the bed. While running towards the treasure box, he turned back to give instructions to Ning Yunxiao.

"Wait for me, my prince!"

The drunk Ning Yunxiao was obedient, "Oh!"

Jiang Lige didn't light the lamp. He searched in the treasure box for a long time before finding the small piece of incense. He lit it with a fire stick and placed it directly on the small table next to Ning Yunxiao.

This incense candle is called Forget Worry Incense, and it is a rare treasure worth a fortune in Nanchu.

If forget-me-not incense is used on a person who is drinking, it will catalyze the person's drunkenness. No matter what happens during this period, the drunk person will forget it completely when he wakes up the next day.

As expected, not long after the forget-me-not incense was lit, Ning Yunxiao, who had been sitting upright, leaned sideways on the bed frame, and his eyes gradually became blurred.

"I just had a nightmare. Would you like to hear it, Prince?"

Ning Yunxiao looked a little dazed. When she heard Jiang Lige initiate a conversation, she was stunned for a moment, then she came to her senses. She leaned forward slightly and put her hand on her forehead.

"But you're scared?"

I don’t know if it was the Forget-Me-Not Incense that did it, but Jiang Lige actually felt a hint of tenderness in Ning Yunxiao’s words just now.

Jiang Lige was shocked by his own thoughts. He shook his head and shook off those ridiculous thoughts in his head. He sighed and said seriously:

"Just now, I dreamed that the Crown Prince personally led his troops to attack Nanchu, and they stormed the Nanchu Imperial City with overwhelming force. The people of Nanchu were displaced, and the land of Nanchu... was devastated."

Ning Yunxiao was stunned, but reacted very quickly, "How could it be?"

"What if?" Jiang Lige asked anxiously, "The Crown Prince's position in Prince Zhao's Palace is awkward. Although he has the support of Emperor Shengwu, it's unacceptable that he has no achievements, right? If he attacks Nanchu, he can gain supreme power and immense wealth for the rest of his life. Do you think that he won't attack Nanchu?"

"I won't."

Ning Yunxiao shook his head firmly, his eyes as deep as a pool of water, but flashing with a hint of hurt.

"One person's achievements may be significant to that person, but compared to the lives of all people in the world, how insignificant are they? War isn't just about one person; it concerns the survival of millions of people in two countries. I will never use provoking a war to satisfy my own selfish desires!

Moreover, Nan Chu and Sheng Ling have been friends for many generations, so how could they be overthrown because of someone's selfish desires?

Even minor frictions between nations are ignored by the monarch. War is a gamble that involves the entire nation's strength. If there is no other choice, then the emperor has given his consent, and the court officials are not silent.

It has to be said that Ning Yunxiao's last words did wake Jiang Lige up.

In the past, she only knew the hatred of losing her country, but she never thought deeply about it. If there was no legitimate reason, why would Sheng Ling mobilize the entire country to attack Nanchu?

"I did not mean that."

Ning Yunxiao's answer made Jiang Lige feel that he was judging others by his own standards. He could only smile awkwardly, explain dryly, and then ask again.

"I just want to ask, if the prince chooses to lead his troops to attack Nanchu one day, what do you think the reason would be?"

Ning Yunxiao frowned slightly, and after a moment's thought, he said seriously, "First, Nanchu has taken the initiative to invade, endangering the well-being of the people of Shengling and damaging the integrity of Shengling. Second, Nanchu's rulers and ministers are unkind, which is harmful to the people of the world."

Ning Yunxiao's words were so righteous that Jiang Lige felt that he was not a good person. Seeing that he could not ask any other questions, he simply gave up.

It would be better to put out the candles early and save some money, Jiang Lige thought.

After the candle went out, Jiang Lige placed Ning Yunxiao on the nearby Arhat bed, and he himself wrapped himself in a quilt and stared at the curtains in a daze.

It was all because she was too ignorant in her previous life and didn't even know the reason for the destruction of her country, otherwise it wouldn't be so difficult now.

That night, Jiang Lige tossed and turned, unable to sleep well, and only fell into a drowsy sleep at three o'clock in the morning.

Ning Yunxiao, who usually slept lightly, slept particularly soundly that night.

The two were woken up by a scream. Rubbing their sleepy eyes, they saw each other not far away, also half awake, and...

Songyue was so surprised that he knocked over the basin of water.

"what happened?"

Feng Quan's concerned voice came from not far away. Song Yue's mind worked faster than usual this time. He slammed the door shut and quickly refused Feng Quan entry.

"Nothing, I just slipped my hand. Fengquan, go check on the preparations in the kitchen. I'll take care of the princess."

Fengquan didn't suspect anything and left.

Seeing that there was no movement outside, Song Yue rushed up immediately and pointed at Ning Yunxiao with great grief.

"Prince! Although you and the princess are already engaged, doing this before the wedding... is definitely against etiquette! How will our princess live in the future?"

"..."

Ning Yunxiao probably understood that Song Yue might have misunderstood. He looked like a student who had been caught, his handsome face flushed, and he didn't even dare to raise his eyelids.

Seeing Ning Yunxiao's reaction, Jiang Lige, who was still a little dizzy, suddenly came to his senses. A hero saves...

Oh no, here comes the chance for beauty to save the hero!

Look at the question our Song Yue asked, it’s really hard for Ning Yunxiao to answer.

To acquiesce is too beastly;

If you say no, then wouldn’t that mean you are worse than animals?

At this time, you need to step in and rescue yourself!

"Songyue!"

Jiang Lige chuckled, blushing as he explained, "Last night I saw the prince drunk, and the palace gates were locked, so I brought him back and settled him here."

"Then Princess, do you have..."

For the sake of her own princess's reputation, Songyue shut up in time and tried her best to hold back the words "rape her".

It seems that Songyue is gossiping about her too?

Jiang Lige was speechless. He didn't know whether to nod or shake his head. When he was in a dilemma, he heard Ning Yunxiao speak.
