The all-round coser bravely challenges the female supremacy!

"Royal sister, could you please stop scaring Jibao all the time? He's mine!"

Ji Bao was very moved by what he heard, but he knew his own status very well. It was his blessing that His Highness protected him, but he could not be arrogant because of this favor.

If I fail to serve His Highness well, even if His Highness protects me, my life will be over!

"Your Highness, Princess, Jibao knows what the two masters mean. Jibao will serve Your Highness wholeheartedly and protect Your Highness with his life!"

Listening to Jibao's oath-like words, Dongfang Jibai remained silent.

Dongfang Chujing's life is much more important than his, a little servant's. No matter what, it is not his turn as a little servant. He still needs to be punished when he deserves it, lest he take advantage of his brother's soft heart and do things he shouldn't do!

Before Dongfang Chujing had time to immerse himself in the sadness of leaving Su Yu, he had to set out on the journey back to Fengdu.

Dust was flying, the rising sun was shining on the vast land, and the well-trained team was ready to go.

Before leaving, Dongfang Chujing looked towards the direction of the Western Dynasty with reluctance.

His Su Su was there, but he was getting further and further away from her...

Dongfang Jibai rubbed his brother's head that was sticking out of the car window and comforted him,

"Don't worry, go back. When you return to Fengdu, I might be able to break through the border of the Western Dynasty. It won't be long before you can marry your beloved Susu."

Dongfang Chujing looked at Dongfang Jibai with moist eyes, sniffed, and said in a muffled voice, "Really?"

Dongfang Jibai smiled confidently and said, "Of course, I have a winning formula!"

……

At the border of the Western Dynasty, the commander-in-chief’s tent.

"Your Highness, the weapons are almost scrapped again." A soldier looked dejectedly at the Third Princess who was sitting in the center of the tent handling military affairs.

The Third Princess, wearing light armor, put down the memorial in her hand and looked at her with a slightly irritated look, "How long will it take for the newly forged weapons to be delivered?"

Si Bing said dejectedly, "It will take another half a month, Your Highness! We can't go on like this! The Yaoguang Kingdom has obviously mastered a new forging process. Our weapons are so different that they're useless after just a few battles. What can we do?"

The Third Princess waved her hand, stopping Si Bing's chatter. "I know what's going on. You can go down."

Seeing the Third Princess's stern expression, Si Bing finally stopped talking and clasped his fists.

The third princess pinched her brows and glanced at the military affairs in her hands. She was no less anxious than Si Bing, but she was not a craftsman, so what could she do?

I can only hope that my fifth sister who works in the Ministry of Industry in the capital can make faster progress and create magical weapons comparable to those of Yaoguang Kingdom as soon as possible. Not to say that they are sharper than them, but at least they won’t be scrapped by them after a few rounds!

Fortunately, Yaoguang Kingdom has not yet mass-produced this kind of weapon, otherwise how can we fight this war!

She didn't believe that the craftsmen of the Western Dynasty could not compare to those of their Yaoguang Kingdom! Her fifth sister was sure she could do it!

"Fifth sister, you have to speed up!"

……

After half a month, Su Yu and his group finally arrived in the capital.

The magnificent city walls and towering gates, the bluestone roads that are more than twice as wide as those in Cangzhou, the dazzling array of shops, the majestic buildings, and the people dressed in silk and satin everywhere all demonstrate the prosperity of the capital.

Upon hearing the news that Su Yu had arrived in Beijing, Qiao Da had already been waiting at the city gate. After seeing Su Yu and his group, he easily got on the carriage, took over Da Zhuang's seat, and led the group towards the prepared house.

Listening to the noisy sounds on both sides of the road, Su Yu looked at An Xun worriedly in the carriage, "If I had known your family background earlier, I wouldn't have brought you to Kyoto this time.

You've been living in the capital for a long time, so you probably know a lot of people. If someone recognized you, I don't know if I could protect you." Su Yu worriedly hugged the man in his arms. "It's best not to go out unless it's absolutely necessary. If you had known this would happen, you might as well have returned to Cangzhou City halfway. Why are you so stubborn?"

An Xun was held by Su Yu, feeling a sense of security in his heart. He looked up and glanced at the curtains inadvertently. A gust of wind happened to blow, and the curtains fluttered and a figure dressed in fancy clothes flashed by.

An Xun stiffened upon seeing this. Su Yu immediately sensed something was wrong with him and quickly pushed him away. She carefully observed his expression and asked nervously, "What's wrong? Did you hear someone familiar?"

An Xun smiled and shook his head, leaning closer to Su Yu's arms and hugging her tightly. "Nothing, just now the wind blew through the car curtain and I saw an acquaintance."

Su Yu patted An Xun's back and sighed, "I was just saying I was worried you'd see someone you know, and now you do. This capital doesn't seem that big after all!"

An Xun curled his lips when he heard this, and rubbed himself gently in Su Yu's arms, "It's okay, my wife, they are not enemies. At worst, I will just not come out in the future. Even if I do come out, can I wear a veil? I really don't trust others to take care of you."

Along the way, Su Yu tried to persuade and threaten her, but An Xun was still worried about her going to the capital alone.

He would rather be locked up in the house than return to Cangzhou City, just to take good care of Su Yu and let her concentrate on the imperial examination.

He even advised Su Yu that although he could not go out in the capital, he grew up in the capital and knew a lot about the affairs of the powerful families in the capital, so he could at least help a little.

In short, the reasons were sufficient. What could Su Yu do? Of course he agreed, but he had a more urgent anticipation for the imperial examination. He wanted to take the exam as soon as possible and enter the court!

The first thing he did after entering the court was to secretly investigate the Zuo Xiang's conspiracy with the enemy and treason, to clear his name and allow Xun'er to enter and leave the capital openly as soon as possible!

Of course, everything has to be done step by step. You can't become fat in one breath!

As the carriage moved forward, things gradually became quiet outside.

"Whoa—" Qiao Dale stopped the carriage, "Master, we're home."

Upon hearing this, Su Yu opened the door and stood in front of the carriage, looking at the majestic vermilion lacquer door in front of him. There were two gilded door knockers embedded on the door, which was low-key yet luxurious.

Su Yu had a good first impression of the house and jumped out of the carriage quickly and efficiently.

This dashing look happened to be seen by the owner of a passing carriage, which passed by Su Yu and his group at a leisurely pace.

There was a young man in the car. He was very amused by Su Yu's cool posture, but he didn't see his face clearly, so he asked the waiter beside him curiously, "Do you know who this newcomer is?"

The waiter narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, "I think his last name is Su. I heard from the concierge that the owner of this house is called Su, Su, Su something, Su Yu? Oh, right! The owner of this house is called Su Yu!"

The young man's eyes widened upon hearing this. "You said the owner of this house is Su Yu? The Su Yu who won both the minor third place and the provincial first place?! She's in the capital?!"

The young servant dared not conclude that this Su Yu was the same Su Yu. The young man was the legitimate son of Minister Guo, and his maternal grandfather's family happened to be Su Yu's neighbors.

Today he went to visit his grandfather and happened to meet Su Yu who came to Beijing. After asking his grandfather, he found out that this Su Yu was the Su Yu who presented sweet potatoes, won the top three prizes, and won the first place in the imperial examination!

From then on, the news that Su Yu came to the capital spread throughout the capital!
