The useless princess is causing trouble again

Chapter 20: Zheng Wenjin, the Prince of Dingguo Mansion

Shangguan Wei looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man in a blue and white robe. He was about the same height as Situ Chong, about 1.85 meters tall, with handsome features, sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, and fair and translucent skin. He was considered a rare handsome man.

He turned his head to look at Situ Chong, "Ah Chong's mother was not born a palace maid, so why is she related to Dingguo Mansion? Is there any connection? Is that shameless guy who is howling really a cousin?"

Situ Chong lowered his head and smiled, saying lightly, "Wen Jin is indeed my husband's cousin. When my mother was alive, she was the adopted daughter of the old Duke Zheng. Later, she returned the old Duke's kindness in raising her and entered the palace as a maid."

"Oh I got it."

"Master Hu, release all the prisoners, especially the young man in blue and white. Do not neglect him and serve him well."

"Okay, I'll do it right away."

The bearded man raised his head and ordered, "Big Knife and Little Knife, you don't need to lead the way. Let all the prisoners go down the mountain as I requested. Also, respectfully invite the young man in blue over here."

Da Dao and Xiao Dao exchanged glances. Da Dao turned around and stammered, "Second Boss, if we let the people go, we're afraid that the big boss will come back and blame us."

"It will be fine. Master Hu will take care of everything. The boss won't dare to object. Just do as you are told."

"Okay, wait for me, I'll be there soon."

After a cup of tea, Da Dao Xiao Dao invited the blue-and-white-clothed young master over. The bearded man was very considerate and led Da Dao Xiao Dao to retreat. The blue-and-white-clothed young master saw Situ Chong and happily opened his arms to him. However, Situ Chong pressed his forehead with his Yang Finger and said with disgust, "You smell too strong, don't get close to me."

The young man in blue and white raised his hands, sniffed the unpleasant smell on his body, and then pouted his lips and said aggrievedly, "I don't want to be like this. The old man asked me to deliver food and grass to the army in a hurry, but when I got here, they took me to the mountain and locked me up."

"Oh, it's urgent. Is there a war on the border? Will being locked up here delay military intelligence?"

Upon hearing the voice, the young man in blue and white turned his eyes to Shangguan Wei beside Situ Chong, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he stared at her blankly.

Wow! What a beautiful fairy...

The blue-and-white-clothed young man's eyes were too obscene. Situ Chong stood in front of Shangguan Wei and said unhappily, "Cousin, this is my princess Shangguan Wei. She asked you a question and you haven't answered it yet."

Zheng Wenjin came back to his senses and quickly bowed and said, "Please forgive me, my behavior just now was abrupt. I am Zheng Wenjin, the prince of Dingguo Mansion. The troops have been divided into two groups and the food and grass have been sent ahead. They should have reached their destination by now. Fortunately, my sister-in-law rescued you today. The Tianyin Kingdom is coming fiercely and the war is intense. I need to rush to the border to check the situation."

Situ Chong's face immediately darkened. "Tianyin Country has repeatedly provoked wars. What is the purpose of this battle?"

Zheng Wenjin frowned, "There is a rare mine on the border between the two countries. Tianyin Country wanted to take it for themselves after discovering it. King Lingnan is brave and good at fighting. He personally led the army to attack. Our generals are old and weak. This battle is more likely to be disastrous than good."

Situ Chong looked at Zheng Wenjin, "Lingnan King Cheng Yi became famous at the age of twelve. He is a ruthless character who kills without blinking an eye. This battle is indeed difficult to deal with. What is the purpose of your uncle sending you there?"

Zheng Wenjin lowered his head and swirled his index fingers around, pursed his lips and said, "The emperor is willing to negotiate peace and cede the mountains on the border, but my father disagrees with this approach, so he sent me to investigate the situation and has sent General Li Yong to support the battlefield."

"The territory of Tianlan cannot be ceded. We cannot continue to let Tianyin's arrogance grow, thinking that Tianlan is easy to control and can be trampled on by other countries at will. This king also does not agree with peace talks. If you want to fight, then fight. Uncle's approach is right."

"Yes, what my cousin said is very true. However, the difference in military strength is huge. I am afraid this battle will be very difficult."

"What's there to be afraid of? Just do it. What invincible king? With me here, I will surely win the battle. I will beat that wild wolf into a husky, howling." Shangguan Wei raised her head proudly, with her hands on her hips, looking like she could not be provoked.

Zheng Wenjin and Situ Chong turned their heads at the same time. Shangguan Wei was full of fighting spirit. Situ Chong frowned and said, "Madam, war is not a joke. Your husband will not let you take risks. If you want to go, your husband and Wenjin will go together. You just stay in the village."

Shangguan Wei spread her hands and said, "Don't try to keep me. I already know about this. Besides, I'm worried about you going. In order to make me feel at ease, I have to wade through this muddy water. If you don't let me go, I will find a way to find you."

"Sister-in-law, you'd better not go to the battlefield. The swords and arrows are blind and may hurt you. Doing so will distract your cousin."

"Hehe! Don't worry, big cousin. There is nothing I am afraid of since I was a child. Just take me with you. I will make them feel the hell on earth and the taste of no return. They will not dare to invade easily in the future."

Situ Chong sighed, "Well, there is nothing we can do about Madam. I will take Madam there, but the journey is long, so we need to ride fast."

Zheng Wenjin glanced at the couple and said, "It will take at least three days and three nights to get to the border. My cousin must bring his younger siblings along for the journey."

"It will take three days and three nights even if we ride as fast as we can. By the time we get there, the flowers will be cold. We have to think of other ways."

Shangguan Wei placed her left hand on her waist and her right hand on her chin, deep in thought, her brows furrowed. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, she raised her right hand and snapped her fingers, smiling happily, "Hey! I've figured out how to get to the border, I'll prepare some things, and then we'll set off. We must beat them until they cry for their parents, bang bang."

Before Situ Chong and Zheng Wenjin could react, Shangguan Wei had already run away, heading towards the bearded man.
