Marry the villain and the whole court kneels down and calls her the queen

Jiang Jiu ran fast to catch up with Zhao Zhuoxi, and poor Chu Yu had to run back and forth even though she was pregnant.

Fortunately, since she prepared the agarwood pills for Jiang Jiu, there was no need to rush.

Seven days after Jiang Jiu and the others left, Chu Yu slowly followed the artillery team back to Su City.

As soon as she arrived in Sucheng, Xiao Yimo picked her up at the dock.

"Zhao Zhuoxi really doesn't know how to care for others. He knows you are pregnant, but he still orders you around. It makes me so angry."

Chu Yu patted his hand soothingly: "I'm a doctor, I know my own body, don't worry, this pregnancy is very safe, eat and drink along the way, relax, it's fine."

"Besides, this isn't someone else's business, it's Jiang Jiu's business. I can't just stand by and watch."

Hearing her say this, Xiao Yimo frowned.

"Jiang Jiu is not dead, and has resurrected a corpse?"

Chu Yu nodded: "It's just that the hatred of separation was too toxic this time. She forgot everything in the past, forgot the emperor, forgot me, forgot Jiao Niang, forgot Ni Chang... Alas..."

Xiao Yimo sighed heavily: "Is she still the same Jiang Jiu as before?"

Chu Yu's eyes widened. "Of course she is. Her temper hasn't changed at all. I heard she's still in the palace, causing a lot of trouble. Fortunately, His Majesty knows about her. If it were someone else, they would have probably chopped off their heads several times."

Xiao Yimo snorted disdainfully: "Jiang Jiu has died for him twice. If he dares to criticize Jiang Jiu, I will never let him go. Anyway, I have already made four cannons now. When I make a few more, I will rebel against him."

Chu Yu shook her head helplessly and smiled: "Alright, the emperor loves her very much. I heard that even the selection for next year has been cancelled, and she doesn't need to learn the palace rules anymore."

"Originally, when the Nanli Kingdom provoked Daning, the Emperor could have simply sent a general with a few cannons, but he insisted on leading the charge himself."

"In my opinion, it's just a disguised way of taking Jiang Jiu on a tour around the mountains and rivers."

Others can't see it, but Zhao Zhuoxi actually does have this in mind.

Nan Li, who was only the size of a palm, really didn't require him to worry too much.

However, he could take this opportunity to leave the palace, or take Jiang Jiu out of the palace with him.

Even if Zhao Zhuoxi left the capital, he would not be afraid of rebellion from other people in the court. After all, he had an army of 300,000 and four cannons that were not yet known to the world.

If there really was a rebellion in the capital, it would be easy for him to deal with Nan Li and then fight his way to the capital.

Facing the vast river, Jiang Jiu rubbed his nose.

"How did Nanli get here?"

Zhao Zhuoxi's carriage stopped at the shore, and he stood on the dock with Jiang Jiu.

"It's not easy to fight. Although the river is not very wide, the water is very deep. And from what I know, it rained several times in Nanli while we were on the road. It seems that their country has suffered a flood."

They were all hit by the flood and had no time to take care of themselves, yet they were still thinking about Daning.

Jiang Jiu put his hands on the pergola and looked into the distance: "What should we do? Should we wait for him to hit us and then fight back, or should we take the initiative to attack?"

Zhao Zhuoxi didn't say anything, but took off his cloak and put it on Jiang Jiu.

There was his warmth and his scent on the cloak, and Jiang Jiu couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Zhao Zhuoxi naturally held her in his arms.

"When he attacks, to be honest, I don't want to bother to mark off this tiny piece of land as my own. Their area is very poor."

Jiang Jiu understood that Zhao Zhuoxi looked down on Nanli. If he brought Nanli Kingdom under his control, he would have to support them, which would be very tiring.

After all, the Duke of Zhenguo defeated all their main forces last time. It would take at least ten years for Nanli to return to its previous prosperous state.

Nanli Kingdom has also suffered many disasters, either earthquakes or floods. It has indeed been very poor in recent years. Zhao Zhuoxi is unwilling to take over a mess.

Jiang Jiu turned his head and glanced at Zhao Zhuoxi.

You know what, Zhao Zhuoxi looks so confident and relaxed, and he does look a bit cool and handsome.

On her well-defined face, a pair of sword-like eyebrows slanted into her temples, her dark and deep eyes were twinkling with starlight, and her sexy thin lips were slightly curved when pursed, as if she was smiling but not smiling, full of tension.

Standing by the river, in the afterglow of the setting sun, he stared at her with a look of tenderness, affection, and a hint of inexplicable aggression, letting the wind blow his robe.

Suddenly, at this moment, Jiang Jiu felt his heart skip a beat. When he got closer, he realized that he was actually an ancient superior.

Mature, domineering and dangerous.

But why didn't she notice it?

This time, she looked into Zhao Zhuoxi's eyes seriously, and the more she looked, the more confused she became.

"Zhao Zhuoxi, the person you actually like is not me, but someone who looks very similar to me, right?"

Although Zhao Zhuoxi's eyes could not lie, Jiang Jiu always felt that when he looked at her, it was as if he was looking at another person through her.

Naturally, Jiang Jiu thought of the allusion "Huanhuan Leiqing".

He treated her as an old friend.

And who is that similar person?

Zhao Zhuoxi has two former queens, one is Su Man, and the other is the legendary richest man in Jiangnan.

Zhao Zhuoxi narrowed his eyes slightly. He was looking through her, only because this body was not her, but the soul of this body was her.

And she knew nothing about it.

Suddenly, Zhao Zhuoxi remembered that he had once drawn a picture for Jiang Jiu.

But just when he was about to take Jiang Jiu to see the painting, he remembered Chu Yu's instructions.

"She can't think about the past anymore. No matter what, it's still her. Does it make any difference? Besides, you have the ability to make her like you the first time, so why can't you make her like you the second time?"

Zhao Zhuoxi smiled bitterly, but it was really difficult.

The Jiang Jiu in the past was cold and aloof. It was only after they had been together for a long time that she developed feelings for him.

Now, it's so difficult to make her fall in love with me again.

He even suspected that her heart was made of stone.

"Are you hungry? Let's go back. The shrimp balls here are delicious. They're your favorite."

Nanjiang City is bordered by a river in the south and the sea in the east. There are many fishermen who make a living by fishing.

This place is rich in Oriental pearls, fish and shrimp.

Fish and shrimp are not very valuable in southern Xinjiang, but Jiang Jiu likes to eat them very much.

As soon as the two of them entered the carriage, Lu Ming brought in a plate of shrimp balls.

"Master, Princess, shrimp balls, coconut juice."

These are all Jiang Jiu’s favorite foods.

Jiang Jiu's eyes suddenly lit up. He pinched a shrimp ball and put it in his mouth. It was fragrant, smooth and chewy.

"Is it delicious?" Zhao Zhuoxi couldn't help asking when he saw her eating happily.

Jiang Jiu nodded vigorously: "It's delicious, you should have one too."

Jiang Jiu said as she handed him one naturally. Zhao Zhuoxi was slightly startled. It had been a long time since she last fed him a snack.

I never expected that something I used to do often would be missed so much now.

He opened his mouth and took her fingers into it.

The slippery tip of his tongue gently slid across her fingertips, like a soft feather gently falling on the water, creating layer upon layer of ripples in her heart.
