The real daughter died tragically and was reborn, and the whole family cried and begged for forgiven

"If you want to leave me alone, forget it in this life!"

His paranoia and the coldness emanating from him startled Li Qingluo.

"Ashi, you misunderstood."

Li Qingluo struggled to find a gap in his arms to breathe.

"What I'm afraid of is... I won't be a good queen to you."

Duan Rongshi's strength finally loosened, and the hostility in his body seemed to subside.

There was confusion in his eyes: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

He even reached out and touched her forehead.

"My Luo'er, when did you become so humble and self-deprecating?"

Li Qingluo grabbed his big hand and sighed helplessly: "Ashi, I'm just a wild girl who grew up in the mountains."

"Although I have a grandmother who loves me and is an old general with great military achievements, in the end, everyone knows what my mother's family is like."

"Even though I have left my clan, my last name is still Li."

"My background won't bring you any benefits. Instead, it will cause you more trouble and difficulties."

"Besides, I don't have the skills of a mistress of a noble family or a noble lady, let alone a good wife and mother. Let alone the queen of a country?"

"I don't like to be confined to a small, square courtyard. I also like to wield swords and knives."

"Being a princess is already difficult enough, and being a queen like this will only attract criticism."

"Ashi, you still hope that I can become a well-behaved woman who can sit quietly within the courtyard walls and help you manage your harem?"

Of course she was confused.

And I was confused for quite a few days.

Moreover, Li Qingluo has a very clear understanding of himself.

She is not an ordinary lady from a wealthy family. She has achieved what she has today through hard work and effort.

It was because she was too aware of her own abilities that she knew she no longer had the ability to be a good queen.

Moreover, we had originally agreed that once everything was over, we would retire to the mountains and live a free and easy life like a wild crane traveling around the mountains and rivers.

Now this dream is completely shattered.

The anxiety and worry in her eyes, and the words in her heart were all expressed at this moment.

Duan Rongshi finally understood what she was worried about.

Immediately, he touched her face with heartache.

"It's because I didn't think it through carefully that Luo'er has to worry about these unnecessary troubles."

"I can fight for this kingdom, or I can lose it."

"but not now."

"Luo'er, I don't want a queen who follows the rules. You are my wife, so I want to work hand in hand with you to govern this country."

"You don't have to hang around in the harem. You can continue to do whatever you want if you want."

"Including handling state affairs with me."

"Even if you don't want to... I ask you to be patient for a while, okay? You don't need to change anything about yourself."

"Whatever you want to do, I will still support you to continue doing it."

"Even if it's what you truly desire... I promise you that I will never betray you in this lifetime. But this will take a long time."

"You wait for me."

"At least ten years, at most eighteen years."

"Your life will never be lived in vain."

He made this promise solemnly, and it was only after many years that Li Qingluo understood why it had to be eighteen years.

It turned out that he actually planned to raise Qingwu by himself until she was eighteen years old. When she was fully grown and could safely ascend the throne, he would let her become the first empress in the world.

However, who would have thought that Qingwu had the same personality as her mother.

Not interested in power or the world.

All my life I have longed for freedom beyond the sky.

Therefore, Duan Rongshi had no choice but to turn to the next best option and train his son...

And, the process was accelerated very severely.

But at the moment, Li Qingluo didn't understand what he said.

What if you just don’t agree?

Did she really abandon him, let him complete the unfinished business on his own, and run away with the child?

How could Li Qingluo bear to let his daughter be born without a father?

He was even more reluctant to leave Duan Rongshi alone at the high and cold place.

In her desperate attempt to achieve perfection, she made only one request: "The three of us cannot be separated."

Madam Pei successfully recaptured Yuncheng.

And on the top of the city wall, the flag of the Lan Navy was hoisted.

At this point, the news that General Xiu Li had returned and that he was as brave as ever and had successfully captured a city for the Lan Navy spread throughout the world.

After Duan Rongshi came back, he personally fought against the remaining soldiers from the Western Regions.

After all the soldiers from the Western Regions on the border were wiped out, envoys from the Western Regions were sent who were eager to seek peace.

They demanded that the Lan Navy release all captives from the Western Regions and the Three Wolf Kings.

The Western Regions promised not to send troops to invade the Central Plains within ten years.

Duan Rongshi sneered and angrily killed the messenger himself.

"ten years?"

"Does the imperial court think this is alms for me?"

"I will make him the Marquis of Gudu, and he will never dare to set foot in the Central Plains again in his life!"

Duan Rongshi thought of the foolish Nanping, and the anger and pain in his heart made him never agree to peace talks with the Western Regions.

If I don't conquer the Western Regions in this lifetime, I will make sure that the interests between the Thirteen Kingdoms and the Imperial Court collapse.

This is the price the imperial court should pay for trampling and humiliating the Princess of Central Plains!

When the Western Regions imperial court learned that the new emperor of Great Chu, Duan Rongshi, had actually beheaded their envoy, chaos, panic and anger fell upon them. Shanyu Guduhou could no longer sit still and decided to lead the army in person.

This time, the Western Regions dispatched 300,000 troops.

At the same time, Duan Rongshi was also gathering and dispatching a large number of Chu soldiers towards the border.

As for Daliang, there are naturally turbulent times.

Many people could no longer sit still.

In the court, the eldest princess and the crown prince quarreled with each other again and almost came to blows.

The reason was that the eldest princess knew that the people in the Western Regions did not treat her daughter well at all, and it was even possible that Princess Nanping had died in Hala City.

She was extremely sad and almost crazy, asking Daliang to send troops as well, so that they could unite with Da Chu to fight against the Western Regions.

But the prince and most of the court officials disagreed.

First of all, they never thought that Prince Su had actually faked his death!

Not only did he fake his death, but now he is going to Da Chu to inherit his uncle's throne!

He is the prince of Daliang!!

Now he is the emperor of Da Chu, and he led the soldiers of Da Chu to recapture all the lost cities of Da Chu. Not only that, he also created the Lan Navy!

Now the rumors about how the Lanhai Army was invincible at the border, how they had defeated the Western Regions army so badly several times that they could not even return home, were spreading more and more intensely throughout Daliang.

Not only that, even the very old General Xiu Li went to the border to join in the fun.

What is their Daliang now?

A clown?

Were the prince and the old general sent specifically to help them turn the tide in Great Chu?

what! ?

Who wouldn’t be angry?!

Who can accept it!

Besides, who knows if he will turn around and attack Daliang?

Forget about joining forces to deal with the Western Regions. It would be better for them to attack the Western Regions on their own, and then both sides will suffer losses. Then Daliang will naturally be able to reap the benefits.

Crown Prince Duan Rongjue not only disagreed with sending troops, but also declared that Duan Rongshi was a traitor!

The people of Daliang will never forgive Prince Su, who abandoned the soldiers and civilians and faked his own death. They will even punish him for the crime of faking his own death in the future!

Even though he is the emperor of Da Chu now, Da Chu has always been under their Daliang, and Daliang is the most powerful country in the Central Plains!

Daliang pretended not to interfere in the dispute between Da Chu and the Western Regions. However, this incident not only caused an uproar in the court, but the entire people now knew the truth.

The people worshipped King Su as if he were a god descended from heaven. Not only did he defeat the Western Regions Army and force them to flee in panic, he also took back the city of Daliang from the Western Regions Army.

Although the flag of another country is now hoisted...

But Yuncheng did not receive any harsh treatment from the Lan Navy!

I heard that the Lanhai Army treats the people of Yuncheng just like they do in Mantuo City, with the military and the people loving each other!

On the one hand, people naturally felt sorry that Prince Su had faked his death and left Daliang.

Otherwise, would the Western Region Imperial Court still be able to humiliate Daliang like this?

Of course, some people also called him a traitor.

"As a Daliang native, being sentenced to go to another country is a capital crime!"

"To be loyal to the Chu State is to betray Daliang! All traitors and the people of Daliang should be executed immediately—"

But this voice was quickly lost amidst the voices of more support: "Bullshit! Don't forget, His Royal Highness Prince Su originally has the blood of the Great Chu royal family!"

"Her biological mother is Consort Yue, the biological sister of the late Emperor of Great Chu, Princess Qingyue! Her status is far more noble than that of Princess Qinyu."

"It is only natural for him to return to Da Chu."

"Also, I heard that the Emperor of Chu was originally an extremely cruel tyrant, but since our Prince Su returned to Great Chu, the Emperor of Chu has gradually changed his temperament and has placed great trust in His Majesty. Not only did he give him the three armies, he also cleared all obstacles for him."

"The Emperor of Chu originally had his own son, but he forcibly gave the throne to his more capable nephew. Which emperor in ancient and modern times could do such a thing?"

"It must be that our Prince Su is truly exceptional. Otherwise, the Emperor of Chu isn't crazy, so why would he do such a shocking thing? Furthermore, I heard that no one in the entire Chu court objected to this."

"Now the people of Da Chu love His Royal Highness Prince Su even more than we do, and they support His Royal Highness Prince Su in inheriting the throne."

"How can we not support him? His Highness Prince Su is like a divine warrior descended from the heavens, leading the Chu people to defeat the hundreds of thousands of troops in the Western Regions. Having such an emperor is a blessing for all the people!"

"This is also the kingdom that Your Highness has fought for!"

"And His Royal Highness Prince Su hasn't forgotten us either. He vindicated the grievances of our Princess Nanping, who was married to us!"

"I heard that the princess is even worse off than pigs and dogs in the Western Regions. She lives in a sheep pen, eating and sleeping with the animals. She has lost even her human dignity, and now we don't know whether she's alive or dead. This is clearly the Western Regions' attempt to humiliate us, Daliang, by saying we're just animals!"

"I heard that His Royal Highness Prince Su angrily executed the Western Regions envoy for this very reason. It was a huge humiliation to the Western Regions."

"Look at the powerful people in the court. Who dares to speak up for this matter?"

"When two countries are negotiating, envoys will not be killed. Unless you want to create a complete feud!"

"Your Highness would rather make complete enemies with the Western Regions than give in. This is obviously for our Daliang!"

"Our true Daliang court is still playing dumb and refusing to send troops. Is this still the Daliang that once had a strong and unyielding spirit?"

"They are not even as good as His Royal Highness Prince Su, so what right do they have to scold His Royal Highness Prince Su?"
