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

When these words came out, the queen looked confused and asked, "What is anemia?"

"They look pale and not in good spirits. Last time I went to see the Crown Prince, I ran into these two. The one called Lin Xuan looked normal, but Pan Yuan looked pale."

"It's a bit like anemia. People with this kind of anemia have very poor health and are likely to die young. But he is very talented and even became the top scholar in the imperial examination."

Jiang Li compared the three of them in her mind. If she had to choose one, she would choose Mo Yuan. He had broad shoulders, a narrow waist, long legs, and an ascetic face. If he were in modern times, he would be snatched up by everyone.

The little head nodded: "Mother, I choose the major general. He is healthy and will live a long life. He will not have the reputation of being a bad husband."

The queen rolled her eyes and said, "You still care about your reputation. Humph, what about the others? Why did you reject them all? Tell me the reason."

"This guy has a mole between his eyebrows, and looks like a girl. He is neither male nor female. I want to find a husband, not a sister to live with. What do you think, mother? And this guy, he is big and strong, and he is not suitable at first glance."

"For men, you need broad shoulders, narrow waist and long legs. After all, you don't marry to be a widow. And this one is as thin as a stick. A strong wind will blow him away."

"Pfft, that makes sense. Keep going."

Jiang Li complained about each portrait one by one. Either the appearance, health or family background were not good. The son of his mortal enemy was naturally not an option, as that would only cause trouble for the Crown Prince.

After hearing her words, the queen was very pleased: "Li'er has grown up and will consider you, the crown prince, in every way. I am very happy. The son of the prime minister and the son of the minister of finance are indeed unacceptable."

"It seems that the Mo family is more suitable. They are originally military generals and have a good physical foundation. In addition, they only support Yu'er. If he can succeed, it will be good."

"Okay, mother, I have an idea. Let's hold a flower-viewing banquet some other day to test the general's wife's attitude. If she is interested, then we can get it done this winter and get married after the New Year."

Jiang Li added: "It can be done before the New Year. Why bother with the long night and many dreams?"

The queen chuckled and said, "You, when I don't urge you, you act like nothing happened, but when I urge you, you become more anxious than anyone else."

"That's fine. You're almost nineteen, which is really old. If you don't get married, your mother will be worried to death. But Mo Yuan has never been interested in women. If he insists on not getting married, he will die."

"Then... don't force it. Li'er knows what mother means."

Jiang Li nodded. Mo Yuan was not the only man with broad shoulders, narrow waist and long legs. If he didn't want to, could she force him? There was no need. There were plenty of men in the world who could do that.

"Your son understands that love in this world cannot be forced. If someone doesn't want to agree, and I force him to agree, I will end up with resentment. It's better to just laugh it off and make another choice."

Seeing her so carefree, the queen nodded and said, "Well, I am relieved that you think so."

The mother and daughter chatted and laughed, and talked about some stories. They looked so secretive that they didn't seem like mother and daughter, but more like best friends.

Hongye, who was standing by, was very happy to see her queen so relaxed. Her queen was just too tense, which made people feel distressed. Fortunately, the eldest princess was a casual person.

After playing around with the queen for a while, she turned out to be a lot more lively than before.

After an unknown amount of time, the convoy stopped. Jiang Li supported the queen and came to the largest tent. After entering, he saw that fruits and vegetables had already been laid out inside.

I swallowed unconsciously, feeling a little greedy and hungry.

The queen sat down and stretched her body: "Li'er, go out and play. Hongye is all right here with your mother. Don't worry, there are guards nearby."

Jiang Li nodded: "Okay, mother, I'll go to the forest and take a look. If you want to eat something, I'll pick it up. Berries are delicious too. I'll pick some and let you try them."

After saying that, he jumped out. Seeing this, the queen said helplessly, "He still has the mentality of a child. He has not grown up yet. If he gets married like this, what will we do?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry. The princess is just careless about small matters. She is smarter than anyone else on big matters. This is great wisdom in disguise. Besides, if she marries into the Mo family."

"The Mohist School has always upheld monogamy. Once the marriage is concluded, even if the Princess and her family are not satisfied, they cannot withdraw, unless they want to have no descendants."

The queen raised her eyebrows and glanced at her: "Hongye, you have also learned bad things from that girl. How can you say such words? Even if you think so, just keep it in your heart."

Hongye narrowed her eyes and smiled when she heard this: "Your Majesty is right, Hongye will remember it."

In the woods, a figure flew past quickly, startling the birds and causing them to fly around.

Jiang Li dodged a few times and caught a rabbit, a pheasant, and a little white fox in his hands. Thinking that his mother would definitely like them, he just electrocuted them but did not kill them.

He jumped down with the basket in his hand, put the prey in the backpack, bent over and concentrated on picking berries, occasionally putting a couple into his mouth. They were sour and sweet and very appetizing, just right for his mother to eat.

Soon he filled a basket with fruits. When he turned around and was about to leave, he sensed murderous intent. He looked over and narrowed his eyes, “Come out, don’t hide anymore. Your murderous intent is leaking out, brother.”

Dozens of men in black came out, swords in hand, and stabbed at her. Jiang Li was afraid that the berries she had picked with great effort would be knocked over, so she flew over and hung the basket on a tree branch.

He put the backpack aside, stretched his wrists, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. His eyes were cold and expressionless, with only the indifference of looking at a dead person.

Jiang Li grabbed the assassin's wrist and twisted it, the sword fell into his hand, and with a backhand stroke, the man's neck was cut, blood bubbles gurgled in his throat, and he fell to the ground twitching.

Seeing this, the others rushed forward.

"Tsk tsk, if you can't win, just gang up on me, right? That's really unethical. Since you guys won't follow the rules, then I won't follow either. Haha, get ready to die."

She raised her fist and punched at them. Several people dodged and hid in the shadows, looking at her. She punched them in the head one by one, and their brains exploded. The scene was horrifying.

He stepped back unconsciously and flew away.

Jiang Li raised his eyes and looked in that direction. One of them ran away. It didn't matter. He would deal with these people first and leave the rest to his father. He was the emperor and he was not willing to investigate and waste his brains.

In less than an incense stick of time, dozens of bodies were lying on the ground. Except for one whose throat was cut, the rest had their heads blown off.

"Well, a headshot is still more satisfying. I've been suppressing my will to use a knife for a while now, but it's so frustrating. You brought this upon yourselves, so you can't blame me."

He looked at his body and found it was a little dirty. He sighed, cleaned it up, then carried the basket and the backpack back home.

The guard's eyes twitched when he saw her attire.

Seeing that the queen had fallen asleep, Jiang Li handed the things to Hongye and whispered, "Sister Hongye will give it to you when mother wakes up."

"Yes, I understand. Princess, please rest assured."
