Your Majesty said that my life is worthless, so why are you crying when I increase my troops?

"Commander Xia, we meet again."

Sun Wenju walked into the gate and nodded to Xia Mingyuan as a greeting.

Xia Mingyuan lazily scratched his ears, "Sun Wenju, Master Sun, why are you looking for Her Royal Highness the Princess so late at night?"

Sun Wenju frowned, "Commander Xia, my father wants me to discuss something with the Princess. Please let her know."

"If you have anything to say, just tell me directly. Your Highness is not in a position to meet guests." Xia Mingyuan waved his hand.

Sun Wenju's expression slowly hardened. "Commander Xia, please go and inform them. Don't delay the princess's important business!"

"Huh, are you deaf or don't you understand what I'm saying?"

Xia Mingyuan sneered and glared at Sun Wenju.

"Either tell me or get out of here!"

"I just don't believe it. On the first day of the convoy's arrival in Hanyang, County Magistrate Sun could have something so important that he would ignore the princess's hard work!"

"you!"

Sun Wenju's face froze and he glared at Xia Mingyuan fiercely.

To be honest, he really doesn't have anything important to do.

It was just that the county government had prepared a welcoming dinner tonight, and was also calling on the whole city to raise funds for suppressing bandits. Sun Yaozu had wanted to find someone to pass on the message.

Ever since Sun Wenju saw Xia Xue in the daytime, he was stunned by her beauty.

Seeing that he could meet Xia Xue openly again, he immediately took the job.

Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the princess's mansion, he was stopped outside by the guard Xia Mingyuan.

I wanted to use the tiger's skin as a banner to scare Xia Mingyuan.

Unexpectedly, they didn't buy it at all.

Sun Wenju gritted his teeth, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

"Since Commander Xia insists, please tell me that the county government has prepared a welcoming banquet for Her Royal Highness the Princess today, and we're also taking this opportunity to raise funds for bandit suppression."

"If Your Highness is interested, you can come to the county government office tonight to enjoy the sight. All the officials and wealthy businessmen from Hanyang will be there."

"Why didn't you just say that earlier?" Xia Mingyuan rolled his eyes at him. "It's just such a trivial matter, and you're still dithering like this."

"Is there anything else? If not, go back quickly!"

The corners of Sun Wenju's mouth twitched and his expression became even gloomier.

"Commander Xia, you've just arrived in Hanyang, yet you're so rude to guests. I advise you to keep a low profile."

"Although you are the princess's guard, you are still just a servant. Hanyang City will not tolerate your arrogance and domineering behavior."

Xia Mingyuan couldn't help but narrow his eyes when he heard this.

"Sun Wenju, are you threatening this commander again?"

"I dare not!" Sun Wenju said calmly with a blank expression, "These are just some kind reminders to avoid disaster in the future. I hope you won't misunderstand me, Commander."

"Bullshit! You said earlier that this commander was rude to guests?" Xia Mingyuan sneered. "Let me ask you, are you a guest visiting the princess's mansion, or are you here to run errands and deliver a message?"

Sun Wenju's face was gloomy. "Why? As the son of a county magistrate, can't I be a guest at the princess's mansion?"

"I'm here as a guest, so why not inform the princess about the welcoming dinner?"

"Really?"

Xia Mingyuan pointed at Sun Wenju, who was empty-handed, and asked, "Since you are a guest, where is your visiting card?"

"Besides, you are the son of a county magistrate, and you are visiting someone else's home empty-handed?"

"There are fruit vendors outside the palace. Even if you buy a watermelon, I will treat you as a guest and have someone serve you tea and seat you."

"But you don't have a visiting card, so you are nameless, and you don't have a gift, so you have no place!"

"With your status as a county magistrate's son, with no official position or title, you want to see the Princess of Daxia. Just announce it outside the door. Do you think the Daxia royal family is weak and can be bullied?"

Xia Mingyuan was so aggressive that he forced Sun Wenju to take a few steps back.

"You, you are making excuses, you..."

Sun Wenju's face was pale. He opened his mouth several times but couldn't say a word. He secretly hated himself for being so careless.

I was so focused on delivering the message that I forgot to prepare a gift!

"What do you mean by you, and what do I mean by me?"

"You didn't come earlier, you didn't come later, and yet you came just when the sun was about to set, and you wanted the princess to see you."

"Sun Wenju, Sun Wenju, don't say you are just a county magistrate's son. Even if you were the son of a prime minister, this commander would not treat you with favor. But you are picking on me!"

"Believe it or not, I will sue you in front of the princess tomorrow!"

Sun Wenju was completely numb. Looking at Xia Mingyuan, who was spitting all over the place, he felt completely disheveled.

How come such a small thing became an unforgivable crime in this guy's mouth!

"You, you are vulgar!"

"Xia Mingyuan, just wait for me."

After Sun Wenju said this, he knew that he would be the only one who would suffer if he continued arguing, so he turned around and fled.

Xia Mingyuan looked at Sun Wenju fleeing in a panic, his lips slightly raised in a sneer.

"With this little ability, you still dare to reason with me? Go home and practice for another two years."

After saying this, Xia Mingyuan went to the backyard and knocked on Xia Xue's door.

"Aunt, someone from the county government sent a message saying there's a welcoming dinner tonight and some fundraising for bandit suppression. Would you like to go?"

"Ahem!" Xia Xue coughed and said calmly, "Since it's a welcoming dinner, I must go. Otherwise, I would be letting down the County Magistrate."

Xia Mingyuan curled his lips and said, "Well, then, your nephew will be your aunt's guard and we will attend together."

After saying this, he turned around and pulled Zhao Hongying back to his room.

in the room.

Xia Xue looked solemn and sighed softly.

After being so cautious in the palace for so many years, how come I was plotted against by this nephew!

Maid Lanxiang stood by, puzzled, and asked, "Your Highness, if you don't want Commander Xia to control you, why didn't Young Master Sun show up earlier? He could have put a dent in his prestige."

Xia Xue rubbed her aching head and said, "This Sun Wenju has evil intentions and is not a good person."

"Today, when I was meeting him outside the city, his eyes were fixed on my chest. I glared at him several times, but he was still so audacious and unrepentant."

This palace, out of respect for County Magistrate Sun, is reluctant to expose this publicly. After all, we still need to rely on the government to escape Xia Mingyuan's control, which is why I don't want to see him."

"Just now, I thought Xia Mingyuan might not be able to stop him. I didn't expect that I underestimated this guy. He is really good at speaking. He scolded Sun Wenju and made him speechless. It really made me feel relieved."

"It's a pity that this bastard's evil deeds are even worse than Sun Wenju's. Otherwise, he would definitely be a rare talent."

At this point, Xia Xue narrowed her eyes slightly, with a hint of coldness in her expression.

"Lanxiang, keep an eye on that guy for me for the time being. See what he's trying to do by going to Hanyang with all this effort!"
