Reborn Empress: The World Originally Belonged to Her

Deputy General Lu was no pushover either; he had killed people before. However, the feeling of fighting Mo Yun was indeed different. The opponent was like an elusive wind, penetrating everywhere.

In the end, he was indeed no match for Mo Yun.

"I surrender."

Deputy General Lu didn't want to get injured, otherwise he would lose all face in front of the Princess.

Mo Yun stopped quickly as well.

After the martial arts competition came to an end, Qin Yu led everyone on a hunting trip, with Yuan Jie and Mo Yun accompanying them.

Yuan Jie initially looked down on Mo Yun, but after the martial arts competition, he changed his attitude: "I didn't expect your martial arts to be so high. You have lived up to the name of the Dark Guard Camp."

"Thanks for the compliment."

"The princess treated you badly before, you don't hold a grudge, do you?"

Because of Leng Xiucheng, Qin Yu often lost her temper with Mo Yun.

Qin Yu, who was in front, also pricked up her ears, trying to hear what Mo Yun was thinking.

"Guard Yuanjie, how can you assume such things about me? From the moment I arrived at the Princess's residence, my life has belonged to her. I will not complain about whatever she desires." Was Yuanjie asking this to test his loyalty? Or had he already been bribed by the Emperor and was he being probed for his attitude?

Yuan Jie was unaware that Mo Yun had thought so much about him on a whim. He was a man bestowed upon the eldest princess by the late emperor, and his loyalty was beyond question.

Qin Yu's lips curled up. His two guards were quite interesting, especially the contrast between their serious expressions and the sandstorm raging inside them. It was really hilarious.

Jiang Yu rushed to the city guards, only to be informed that the Princess had gone hunting in the forest. He dared not go in and could only wait outside, hoping that the Emperor would wait for him to return.

It was already dusk when Qin Yu came out carrying two rabbits: "Jiang Yu, what are you doing here instead of by the Emperor's side?"

"Princess, His Majesty urgently summons you. Please come to the palace immediately."

It's most likely Cheng Qixia's business, but judging from Jiang Yu's expression, the two of them should have met before.

"I'll change my clothes and then go. You go back first."

"This old servant will wait for Your Highness." Jiang Yu was afraid that if he turned around, the princess would disappear again, and where would he find her then?

Qin Yu didn't even turn her head: "You won't be able to keep up with me when I ride a horse."

.......

In the palace, Qin Yanling still couldn't concentrate on the memorials after meeting with Cheng Qixia. Jiang Yu hadn't returned yet, and he had no one to talk to. Although he had rejected Cheng Qixia's proposal to marry his elder sister, he couldn't stop her if she agreed herself. What should he do?

Just as he was feeling extremely distressed, Jiang Yu brought Qin Yu in.

"What's wrong? You look so worried."

Qin Yu, adorned with a set of jade ornaments and a white embroidered wide-sleeved dress, resembled a celestial maiden, appearing somewhat out of place in this magnificent palace.

Qin Yanling finally found her backer and almost cried with joy: "Royal sister, you've finally arrived! Why did that servant Jiang Yu take so long? He's such a useless wretch."

Jiang Yu was so frightened that he knelt down tremblingly.

"It's not his fault. I went to the city guard camp today, and he couldn't get into the hunting woods, so he waited outside until dark."

Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief; everything was alright now that the princess had spoken up for him.

As expected, Qin Yanling didn't press the matter further. He took Qin Yu's hand and led her into the inner room, saying, "I suppose my elder sister already knows that Cheng Qixia has come to the capital. Just now, he came to me and actually asked to marry my elder sister. I refused without even thinking about it."

"He wants to marry me?"
