Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn

Gongzi Yu listened to their questions and answers, and the corners of his mouth twitched. These two really didn't treat each other as outsiders. Why were they so calm and talking about the murder and burial?

Night falls

The three of them put on their night clothes and prepared to set off. Gongzi Yu hurriedly said, "Who of you will take me with you? I don't... I don't know Qinggong, so I may need your help."

Silence was Cambridge tonight. Jiang Li glanced at the person beside him and said, "You want me to take care of you? I can't hold you in my arms, but I can carry you on my shoulders."

Of course she couldn't hold her in her arms, as that would reveal her identity. It was better to carry her on her back, with her head facing away from her. This way he wouldn't notice anything. She was such a clever little girl.

Upon hearing this, Gongzi Yu silently moved closer to Mo Yuan and looked at him eagerly: "Young General, you need me to help you break the trap~~"

These two people definitely don't want to take him with them. Humph, let's see how you can break the mechanism without them. If the mechanism is not broken, it will be impossible to get the gold, silver and treasures.

Mo Yuan said calmly, "Xiao San, thank you for taking care of me."

Jiang Li agreed readily, walked up to Gongzi Yu, and without saying a word, he carried the man on his shoulders and jumped onto the top of the wall, scaring him to scream.

Oh my god, it’s too high, help, I don’t want him to carry it.

This little guy is too short. If I carry him like this, if I’m not careful, my head will hit the ground. It’s really scary, wuwu…

Jiang Li was very impatient with his voice, so she knocked him out without hesitation. When she got to the place, she used a needle to wake him up. It was simple and straightforward. She was really smart.

Seeing that the person had fainted, Mo Yuan raised his eyebrows, said nothing, then flew up on tiptoe. The two of them rushed in one direction, hid on the roof, and quietly observed the movements below.

There were lights and decorations everywhere, and it was very lively. It was obvious that there was a happy event happening in the mansion.

"Sir, it seems that this mansion is getting married."

"No, it's a concubine."

"……Um??"

Seeing that he didn't seem to understand, Mo Yuan explained, "I married my wife at noon, and she was carried in through the side door at night. She is a concubine, and the eighteenth concubine."

Jiang Li was shocked and murmured, "Eighteenth room, can your body handle it? You are so old."

"Over fifty."

"Fifty...fifty years old."

Seeing Mo Yuan nod, Jiang Li pursed her lips. This was the ancient times, the ancient times with three wives and four concubines. How could she have forgotten it?

"Wouldn't that mean half of your body would be buried in the ground? That would be a sin."

"Sir, how many wives have you taken? I mean concubines."

Mo Yuan was silent for a long time before he said quietly, "I have not married yet. The Mo family will only marry one wife and will never take concubines."

Jiang Li looked at him with admiration: "Sir, your family has really good rules. You can't marry too many women. No, you can't take too many concubines. Otherwise, there will be unrest in the harem, poisoning, assassination, and fighting every day."

"...Ahem, this is a rule passed down from our ancestors. The Mo family is not allowed to take concubines. Even if the wife unfortunately passes away, they must observe mourning for three years before they can marry again."

"Wow, the women who can marry into the Mo family are so lucky. Young Master, you are already in your twenties, why haven't you married yet? I haven't found anyone I like, but I heard that the sons of high-ranking families usually have fiancées or something like that."

Mo Yuan saw his eyes sparkling and his eyes twitched: "You are very curious about this."

Jiang Li blinked his eyes: "Well... I'm not really curious. After all, this is your private matter. I'm just asking casually. Haha, just asking casually. If you don't want to tell me, forget it."

"What about Xiao San? Is there a girl he likes?"

"No, I'm too poor to marry her, and my vitals are injured, so I can't marry her."

Mo Yuan almost choked. Looking at the man who talked about his life with a calm expression, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes. It is good to have a strong will despite being disabled. Only people with principles are more suitable for the Mohist Army.

His tone became more intimate: "It's okay. When you become successful in the future, if there is a girl who doesn't mind and is willing to be with you, it's not impossible to marry her. It's still a bit pitiful to live alone for the rest of your life."

Jiang Li blinked her eyes. She was just talking nonsense, but did this guy really believe it? He was so naive, even easier to fool than the captain.

"...Well, let's talk about the future later. There's no rush for now. The most important thing is to fight the war first. If we can't win, we'll lose our lives. There's no point in thinking too much."

"Shh, someone is coming."

The two of them fell silent, carefully moved a tile away, and looked inside by candlelight, only to see a girl in her wedding dress sitting on the edge of the bed, twisting her body and whimpering, as if she was tied up.

"Sir, this concubine doesn't seem to be voluntary, it's forced. So should we save someone at the same time?"

Mo Yuan hummed, "Let's talk about it later. After we finish dealing with the warehouse, if you still have the energy, you can take it with you."

Jiang Li said, "Sir, why don't you take it with you?"

"I'm not as strong as you, so if you have the strength, take it with you. If you don't have the strength, forget it. What's the problem?"

"People like these who were forced here were usually sold by their families. Even if they were rescued, they would be homeless and a nuisance. Where do you want to take them? To the military camp? That's impossible."

Jiang Li was silent for a while: "The barracks are not short of cleaners, as long as they can give us food to eat. Now that we have run into this, I will feel bad if I don't save him."

Mo Yuan gave him a deep look and said, "You can save her and take her back, but think carefully. Even if the military discipline is strict, this is the army after all, and it's full of men. If a woman goes in, it's like a sheep entering a den of wolves."

"...Okay, I'll listen to you, sir. We'll wait until we've dealt with the warehouse issue and then take a look. If she can be saved, give her some silver and let her go, but don't bring her back to the army."

"I have to fight the war, and I don't have time to take care of a woman."

As the two were talking, a gray-haired man walked in, coughing non-stop. He took off his veil and revealed an obscene smile.

"Oh, from now on you will be the master's concubine. As long as you serve him well, you won't have to worry about food and clothing. If you can give birth to a child, ahem, you will be rewarded more."

Meixiang glared at him angrily and whimpered.

Jia Bu Ren rubbed his hands, walked forward and removed the cloth from her mouth. Before she could say anything, he was spat on.

"Bah, I have a father and a mother, who would want to follow you, an old man? You are robbing me, you must die a miserable death. You are an old thing who is about to be buried, and you dare to rob me."

"If you dare to touch me, just wait and see. If I don't turn this place upside down, I'll take your last name, bah~~"

Jia Bu Ren's face darkened, he raised his hand and slapped the girl, but when he saw that her face was crooked but she was still staring at him stubbornly, his heart felt hot, not bad, not bad, she was a little hot pepper, he liked her.

It is so exciting to conquer like this, the body is getting hot, with a greasy smile on the face: "Good boy, don't be anxious, wait for the master to treat you, hehe."
