The prince stepped on me to get to the top, I angrily flirted with the enemy's hostage

Su Rou frowned slightly. Third brother can now kill even his subordinates at will?

The border had always been chaotic, but she hadn't expected it to be this chaotic...

Su Chi lowered his eyes and looked at her, "Why don't you say anything? Are you scared? Leave the capital, there are people everywhere..."

Su Rou interrupted him, "Third brother, I'm not afraid, I just feel that what you're doing might make the emperor unhappy with our family."

There was no expression on her face. Third Brother probably wanted to take the opportunity to scare her and tell her not to leave the capital alone next time.

but……

She is no longer the delicate Su Rou who was protected under the wings of the general's mansion.

Su Chi was startled and laughed, "It's best not to be afraid."

Su Rou was brought to a clean room by him. The bed was covered with soft bear skin. The furnishings in the room were clean and tidy, which was really different from the mess outside.

Is this the third brother’s room?

She was really surprised.

He stayed in the military camp all year round, living with a bunch of jackals, tigers and leopards outside, but he could still keep his room so tidy.

Su Chi leaned over and grabbed her ankle.

Su Rou was shocked and retracted her foot. "Third brother, what are you doing?"

Su Chi said, "Help you take off your shoes. I'll call some women to help you bathe."

Su Rou said, "I...I can take it off by myself."

She's already an adult now, does Third Brother still treat her like a child...

Su Chi used a little force and took off the shoes on Su Rou's feet. "When we were little, you loved to order me around. Why are you suddenly so unfamiliar with me now?"

Is it strange?

This isn't about thinking about gender differences...

She was already nineteen when she died in her previous life, so she now has a fifteen-year-old body and a nineteen-year-old heart.

Su Chi placed her shoes neatly beside the bed and said, "I'm outside the door. Call me if you need anything."

Su Rou sat cross-legged on the bed, and several women carrying hot water came in and out of the room.

The clothes they wore were different, and the material was very rough. Looking at them, it was clear that they were not maids serving here, but more like those women in the upper class...

Third Brother wouldn't do such a heartless thing, right? First he killed his own soldiers at the border, then he raped a woman...

My third brother has been guarding this place since he came of age. Does the emperor know about his behavior or not?

"Creaky—" A couple closed the door. "Girl, please undress. The hot water is ready."

Su Rou walked over and saw delicate rouge, powder and body oil placed next to her.

Su Rou said, "You can go out, I can wash it myself..."

These people were pale and thin, with expressionless faces, standing here like puppets being manipulated by others...

Su Rou was frightened.

"Girl, please undress. The hot water is ready."

They repeated what they had just said.

Now Su Rou was no longer calm.

Su Rou called out to Su Chi, "Third brother, can you ask them to leave? I want to wash myself."

Su Chi's voice came from outside after a while, "Come out."

Su Chi gave the order, and these women left one by one as if they were carrying out the order.

Su Rou breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that her third brother would not harm her.

but……

What's going on here...

Su Rou took off her clothes and immersed her whole body in the wooden barrel. She felt comfortable. She had not had a good rest in the past few days except for traveling, and her hair was all messy.

She took a bath, changed into the clothes Su Chi had prepared for her, opened the door, and saw that it was dark outside.

There was a sound of playfulness in the distance.

Su Rou looked over and found that a group of soldiers were surrounding a woman. Every time the soldiers passed by the woman, a piece of her clothes would be torn off.

The woman was shaking with fear, and it looked like she had been abducted here from somewhere else.

Just as Su Rou was about to step forward, someone pulled her back.

"What to do?"

She looked at Su Chi, "Third brother, they seem to have kidnapped a woman."

Su Chi said, "I asked someone to prepare food, come and eat."

Su Rou could tell that he didn't want her to care.

Su Rou stood still, "Third brother, since you did this on purpose, you have to give me a reason."

Su Chi looked at her, "Little sister, what reason do you want?"

Su Rou frowned, "Why did you watch the soldiers bully women? Who were those women who came in when we were bathing just now?"

Su Chi said, "Just an ordinary woman."

Third brother just said it in one sentence?

Su Rou said, "But as a general guarding a region, your job is to protect the people of a country. How can you bully a woman?"

Su Chi glanced at her and said, "You have grown up and know more. This is the first time I see you scolding me."

Su Rou was dissatisfied, "I'm not scolding you, I just think it's unreasonable!"

"Whoosh——" a gust of sharp yellow sand blew over.

Su Chi said, "Then how can you be sure that there isn't a single soldier like this under Father's command? Doesn't the Emperor know the situation at the border? As a soldier, if you do things too perfectly, it will only arouse the Emperor's suspicion. Father is known for his victories and fame, yet the soldiers in the army visit brothels and molest women in the streets. After all, the capital is under the Emperor's feet, so the soldiers dare not go too far, and Father turns a blind eye."

"I'm far away at the border. What would the Emperor think if I trained my soldiers too well?"

Su Rou: “…”

Su Chi said calmly, "Answer me, little sister."

Su Rou said, "I suspect you might have the cavalry to rebel..."

She could understand the desire to appease the emperor, but she could not accept the bullying of women.

Su Chi extended his hand, "Now, can you come with me to eat?"

Su Rou grabbed his clothes and said, "Third brother, you'd better be more restrained in the future..."

Su Chi said, "What in this world can be better than smoking?"

This is quite...

Su Chi prepared roast chicken and grilled fish, but Su Rou tasted like chewing wax.

"Third brother, when are we going back to Beijing?"

The sky outside looked gloomy, and she couldn't tell what time it was.

Su Chi said, "Let's finish our meal."

"Major General! A merchant caravan arrived not far away. It seems they had a conflict with a group of bandits. The two sides started fighting."

A voice outside the door interrupted their meal.

Su Chi picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth. As he chewed with his strong and handsome face, everything else became a cloud.

"Who's the leader of the caravan? If it's a small caravan, we'll wipe them all out."

Su Rou chewed the chicken leg in her mouth and swallowed it.

She heard someone outside the door say, "It's Wen Yuan from Yufang."

The chicken leg bone that Su Rou had just gnawed clean fell onto the table. "Third brother, help Wen Yuan. I know her."

Su Chi raised his eyes, "How is our relationship?"

Su Rou said, "The first time we met, she gave me a big house!"
