Dress up as a sickly person to capture the villain princess!

By the time of the Spring Equinox, the construction of the city wall of Xizhou City had been completed.

Xia Zhiyuan's fingers fell on the city wall, looking at the huge group of people riding horses towards her in the distance, neither hurried nor slow, with an oil-paper umbrella in her hand.

The craftsmanship of the craftsmen in Jinzhou City is particularly outstanding. The imitation of the green bamboo dancing in the wind is so lifelike that it makes people dazed for a moment, wondering if it is really the green bamboo that is bent and covered on the brown oil paper.

The continuous drizzle wet the entire city wall with its dripping sound. In this frontier sea city, the rain is quite a different feeling.

The rumbling sound made the Xizhou City soldiers standing on the city wall a little nervous. They unconsciously clenched the black spears in their hands. Their throats tightened. The day they had been looking forward to had finally arrived.

There is no longer a sword hanging over your head, ready to fall.

"Humph! It really is that brat!"

"It seems that what His Majesty said is right. I have been waiting here for more than a few months, and finally I have waited for him."

"Hahahahahaha! I'll jump on my horse right now and beat him to a pulp. He doesn't know what's good for him!"

A hearty laugh sounded beside him. King Cheng was wearing a black and gold armor with a dragon diving into the sea on it. He looked so majestic. The moisture from the drizzle added to the dragon's momentum. It was really like a dragon that turned the rivers and seas upside down and guarded a place.

Some rain water accumulated on his helmet, but King Cheng did not care. He had been fighting in the open air and his life was hanging by a thread over the years. If he was not careful, the enemy would chop off his head.

"My Lord, don't be anxious."

"With the prince's mighty posture, if we rashly accept the challenge now, the loyal and brave young marquis might be frightened into retreating."

The mottled piece of city wall where Xia Zhiyuan placed his finger was not covered by raindrops because of the umbrella. It remained dry, forming a sharp contrast with the other wet city walls.

This little girl has been opposing his way of doing things recently, but what she said was so flawless and her words were so sharp that it left people speechless to refute.

He was really angry, but there was nothing he could do.

"This is a gong and a drum in front of you, why should you be afraid?"

"I am not afraid of these things, so why should he be afraid of a hammer?"

I knew that King Cheng would be impatient and couldn't hold back his temper. The father and daughter were exactly the same. Xia Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows slightly.

Don't be impatient or impatient.

She had been in officialdom for a long time and knew how to deal with those officials who acted like royal relatives.

"Zhiyuan is not looking down on His Royal Highness King Cheng, but Zhiyuan is waiting for someone."

"I think His Royal Highness King Cheng should also wait for that person."

These words were so confusing that the upright King Cheng was bewildered, but he had a vague guess in his mind that there must be only one person in the world who could make this eloquent girl so respectful.

"Could this person you are talking about be the current emperor?"

But how is this possible? Jinzhou City is far away from Xizhou City. If you want to come here as soon as possible, you have to come here several months in advance, just like me.

Xia Zhiyuan just smiled, and the two looked at each other, her eyebrows and eyes melted in the rain and mist. After a long time, she said: "Yes, Your Majesty will come here."

Zhao Yihan, who was sitting next to him, opened his eyes wide and stood up from his chair in an instant as if he had heard some great news.

"Really…?!"

Di Ping, who was holding an umbrella for her, quickly tilted the umbrella, fearing that the continuous drizzle would fall on the little princess. The rain curtain on the umbrella moved slightly, and Zhao Yihan looked back.

Just then she saw Di Ping's worried eyes. She was stunned for a moment, her smile froze, her red lips were tightly pursed, and she avoided Di Ping's sight.

I felt a little uncomfortable all over.

Why is this guy so worried about me? Is he just putting on an act for me? Does he think I'm really that important?

"Yeah, it's true."

"When have I ever lied to you?"

Xia Zhiyuan glanced back, her whole body almost blending into the rain and fog. Before Zhao Yihan could open her mouth to answer, she heard the sound of killing coming from outside Xizhou City.

Thousands of horses galloped and came through mud and water.

The leader was charging in the front. He was wearing white armor, like auspicious clouds falling in the rain and fog. Lu Boshan's face was covered with rain, but it couldn't extinguish the anger in his heart.

He looked up at the woman on the city wall who was pointing at an oil-paper umbrella. His heart suddenly began to beat fast and he felt completely hopeless.

It was indeed her. She had planned all the tricks in this big chess game and forced him to flee here.

It was Zhiyuan whom he had always been thinking about and never let go of.

He reined in his horse and stopped, with the tip of his spear against the mud, and roared at the city wall.

"I am the Loyal and Brave Marquis of the Liang Dynasty!"

"I hope the brothers in Xizhou City will be lenient and let us in!"

He loosened his grip on the spear, clasped his hands together and saluted, respectfully facing Xia Zhiyuan on the wall of Xizhou City.

Since the two of them can't be husband and wife, then he will use his status as the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery to suppress her. He doesn't believe that this girl won't open the city gate for him!

So what if he was favored by His Highness? He naturally looked down upon such a lowly method of climbing onto the dragon bed by relying on a body.

But he didn't expect that this little girl had schemed against him so much and never took him seriously from the beginning. How could he swallow this?

Now he has to fight for Xizhou City whether he wants to or not. Let's see whether a hero will emerge in troubled times or whether a weak woman like her can defend Xizhou City.

However, Lu Boshan, who was focusing on Xia Zhiyuan, didn't care at all. Next to Xia Zhiyuan stood Cheng Wang, who was wearing black and gold armor.

His arrogant words and aggressive attitude naturally made King Cheng very unhappy. Now, the most glorious and highest-ranking person in Xizhou City is His Highness King Cheng.

This naughty boy actually turned a blind eye to me. It seems he deserves a beating.

"You are the loyal and brave Marquis of the Daliang Dynasty, and I am also the King of Cheng of the Daliang Dynasty!"

"You are such a big shot, without even considering your own abilities!"

King Cheng looked down at the arrogant Lu Boshan. His shout was so powerful that not even the continuous drizzle could stop it.

Lu Boshan, who was standing below the city, could only hear vaguely, but his eyesight was very good, so he saw that next to the person he had been thinking about day and night, there was a majestic man in black and gold armor.

“Yes…it’s King Cheng…!”

"Why is he here?!"

Gu Zhao was shocked and had already made plans to retreat. He knew very well that the fact that King Cheng could actually appear on the city wall of Xizhou City meant that King Cheng must have stationed troops nearby.

I just don't know when they will rush over.

"Impossible...Impossible...Could it be that Your Majesty knew from the beginning that we would rebel?"

"How can this be!"

Gu Zhao held the long knife in his hand, his eyes fixed on Xia Zhiyuan who was standing motionless on the city wall. He had already come to a conclusion - perhaps, this big net had fallen from the sky at some point in time, and they were still unaware of it, like a frog in a pool of warm water.

Stupid to the extreme.
