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

She didn't understand why the General's Mansion worked so hard to push the barbarians back, but the result of the peace talks was that Qi State paid compensation for the city and the victorious country paid compensation to the defeated country. This was too outrageous.

Seeing his absent-minded look, Si An frowned and said, "Captain Wang, are you okay? You look like you've been hit hard. The cession of the city is a bit aggrieved."

"But there is nothing your majesty can do. The treasury is empty and we cannot afford to fight. It is a great honor to be able to have ten years of peace and stability."

Jiang Li curled his lips. That was not the case at all. It was obvious that the original owner's father was a coward. He was afraid that if he didn't give the money to the barbarians, they would fight again. Haha, the empty treasury was just an excuse.

Even if the people were not hungry, they were not given more food and fodder. Instead, they allowed corrupt officials to exchange good food and fodder for inferior ones, not only not allowing people to eat well, but also forcing them to risk their lives in the war. It was so immoral.

"Hmph, Qing, just be quiet. I'm in a bad mood now and don't want to talk to anyone."

As he spoke, he rode his horse faster and moved closer to Mo Yuan.

Si An touched his head, confused, and muttered: "It's a good thing that there is no war. Why should I be angry? This man is really weird. He can't understand the emperor's mind."

Seeing that the man was wearing half a mask and had a strong bloody and murderous aura, Mo Lin became curious. This must be the person who created the Silver Moon Sword. He had always wanted to make friends with him, but never had the chance.

Now that the opportunity had come, he shouted, "Third brother, come over here. I have something to talk to Captain Wang about."

"..."

Mo Lin didn't care about anything and squeezed over. He grinned at Jiang Li, looking like a fool.

"You are……"

"As for me, I'm your Major General's second brother. You can just call me Mo Lin. Captain Wang, I've heard about your abilities in Beihuang City. I admire you very much."

Jiang Li looked at him blankly.

What a strange name, Ma Ling. It's not as nice as Major General. And he looks so muscular and strong. How does he look like a Major General? Are they really brothers? Could he be born to a concubine?

The more he thought about it, the more possible it seemed. With a gleam of gossip in his eyes, he asked tentatively, "Brother Mo, your physique... is quite good. It's just that you don't look a bit like a major general."

Mo Lin thought he was being praised, so he raised his chin with a proud look on his face, "That's right, others always praise me for my good health. I have never been sick since I was a child. If I were not born by the same mother, they would have thought my father had a mistress."

Just as he finished speaking, he was hit on the head by a stone. He cried out in pain and turned around to see his third brother glaring at him.

He scratched his head, looking confused, not understanding what was wrong. This was all true, people said so, his physique was the strongest among the three brothers.

"Third brother, why did you hit me?"

Mo Yuan was somewhat helpless: "Second brother, please don't say such nonsense. The men in our general's mansion have always had only one wife. We never take concubines, let alone keep mistresses."

"If Dad hears you talking like this, you'll probably get beaten again."

Mo Lin said aggrievedly: "Hey, I was just giving an analogy, Captain Wang, do you understand? What I want to say is that the three of us brothers have the same father and mother..."

"It's normal that their physiques are different. All nine sons of a dragon are different. If you saw my eldest brother, you would be even more surprised. He has less than 200 grams of flesh and is very skinny."

"He is actually the most handsome young man in the capital. How many girls wanted to marry him? On the day my sister-in-law got married, many girls cried to death."

Jiang Li listened patiently, his mouth twitching: "Brother Mo, is there a possibility that the first young master is compared according to talent, appearance, and demeanor, not according to physique."

Mo Lin nodded repeatedly: "Yeah, I know, that's why I think he's sick. I don't understand what those girls are thinking. Why is there so many women around my brother, but I don't have any."

"My third brother is not interested in women. Alas, I am the most pitiful one. No woman is willing to approach me."

"Pfft~~"

Seeing him looking at him, Jiang Li tried hard to hold back his laughter. It was so hard that his face turned red. He couldn't hold it back anymore. This guy was just too funny, haha.

Mo Lin looked confused: "Captain Wang, what are you laughing at? Do you also think that I am right that those noble ladies in the capital have poor eyesight? Obviously, I am better and can be held high for no reason."

"Ouch, who hit me on the head again?"

Mo Yuan's voice came: "Second brother, restrain your stupidity and don't speak carelessly about the noble ladies of the capital. Do you want to be surrounded and beaten by them like before?"

"No...don't want to."

"Captain Wang, we've strayed off topic. Let's talk about something else. Do you have any hobbies? When we get back to the capital, I'll take you out to play."

"Let me tell you, my eldest brother and third brother are not as good at having fun as me. I know there are many fun places. If you go, you will definitely not regret it. How do you think?"

Seeing his sincere face, Jiang Li found it even more amusing.

"Brother Mo, why do you want to make friends with me? Is there something you like about me?"

Mo Lin blinked his eyes and said, "Silver Moon Blade, and your strength, you are the strongest person I have ever seen. They all say that I am strong, so I want to compete with you."

"If there is anything missing, you can teach me."

...To be honest, it's really hard to teach someone who is lacking in brains. She finally saw someone who is even more stupid than her. The captain can feel relieved.

Jiang Li's eyes were filled with relief: "Sure, when we get to the capital, after we've distributed rewards based on merit, we'll find a place to have a competition."

Mo Lin's eyes lit up, and he stared at her with his bright black pupils: "Okay, then it's settled. Then how about the Silver Moon Sword..."

"Uh, I can't tell you that. There's no way to tell you. Brother Mo, you'd better not ask. If you want one, you can ask the Major General for one. It will be very useful for self-defense in the future."

Well, even if one's brain is not very good, one can still have incredible fighting power. This idiot is quite interesting. It would be a pity if he was accidentally killed by others.

Mo Lin immediately looked at Mo Yuan and shouted, "Third brother, Captain Wang asked me to give him a Silver Moon. When will you give it to me?"

Mo Yuan said nothing. Every single Silver Moon was recorded, so how could he give it away casually? Besides, his second brother was always stupid, and if he got Silver Moon, who knows what kind of trouble he would get into.

"Third brother, please tell me when you can give it to me."

"No, every one of them is recorded. I can't give it to you. If His Majesty finds out, you will be punished."

Mo Lin's face fell and he looked at him with resentment.

Mo Yuan pretended not to see it, and after a while he said quietly, "Second brother, if you continue to make trouble, I will tell my eldest brother when we return to the capital."

Seeing him shiver and dare not say a word, I felt relieved. It turned out that only my eldest brother could control him.
