After Xie Chunchao looked him up and down carefully to make sure he was fine, he said, "What am I worried about? The omnipotent Tai...you can't be inferior to me, right?"
"If something happens to you, you won't be the same person I know anymore."
Rong Shen raised his lips and smiled slightly when he heard this, and then asked unwillingly, "You really don't miss me at all, don't you worry about me?"
Xie Chunchao turned away and said, "I don't want to, don't worry."
"You said you wanted to pay for me, so pay it quickly."
As Rong Shen took out the money, he lamented, "What a miserable life, the woman I married only thinks of me when she asks me to pay."
Xie Chunchao:? ? ?
Why is this man so crazy?
The girl selling jewelry took the money from Rong Shen's hand and answered with a smile, "Young Master has such a beautiful wife. If others can't even envy her, how can he suffer such a miserable life?"
She said, handing the change to Rong Shen.
Rong Shen took the money and nodded slightly to the girl, then turned and left with Xie Chunchao.
The two of them had just taken a few steps when the girl's exclamation suddenly came from behind, "Ms. sir, why are you here? Sit down quickly. I said I can do it alone. You don't need to look at it. Why do you still come tomorrow?" Your legs are going to hurt again.”
When Xie Chunchao heard this, he turned back and looked at the stall where he was just now. Although the girl was complaining about the man, the love in her eyes was so full that it was about to overflow...
only……
Her eyes moved down to the man's empty trousers. It turned out that his leg was broken, so it was inconvenient...
Rong Shen followed Xie Chunchao's gaze and said in a low voice, "He is a soldier of the Xia Kingdom, and the wounds on his body were also left on the battlefield."
When Xie Chunchao heard this, his heart trembled again.
Back when she was on the border of Chu State, she was already dimly aware of the cruelty of war.
For Xie Chunchao, one general's success and ten thousand bones are withered. This is more than just a beautiful saying. She has truly seen how many people will die in a war. They are also sons, brothers, and husbands...
But a war can easily take away their lives, and behind them are countless families...
"Chaochao, let's go." Rong Shen saw that Xie Chunchao felt pity for them, and said, "Chaochao, don't worry, our Xia Kingdom will pay condolences to veterans who were injured on the battlefield every month, although it can't make them rich. , but it can also be used to maintain the most basic life.”
Xie Chunchao sighed softly and said, "Tell me, why do we have to fight?"
Rong Shen was stunned on the spot. He had never thought about why he wanted to fight. The education he had received since birth was to dominate the world, and this was also his ambition since childhood...
He pondered for a moment and then said, "In a world of great strife, either you die or I live."
"Chaochao, don't be soft-hearted."
“Today’s bloodshed and sacrifice are for the sake of peace in the future.”
Xie Chunchao also read history and understood the principles in the book.
She felt that Rong Shen was wrong. If she bleeds today, she will still bleed tomorrow.
Even if the world is unified, people's desires will not stop. The superior will always continue to launch wars to add gold and jade to his life.
What's ridiculous is that even though she understands this truth, she still continues to wage war in order to prevent her country from being annexed by other countries.
She shook her head and decided to put the unrealistic thoughts behind her.
"Is the house dead?" Xie Chunchao asked softly.
Rong Shen answered confidently, "He will definitely die."
He wouldn't survive being hit by his poison dart.
Hearing this, Xie Chunchao breathed a sigh of relief, "Now that the Sheng Kingdom has lost its crown prince and prime minister, there will definitely be chaos."
Rong Shen narrowed his eyes and smiled, his eyes full of confidence in controlling everything, "We only need to sit back and watch, and when the Sheng Kingdom is in chaos in the future, we will gather troops and horses to attack the capital of the Sheng Kingdom."
"Chaochao, when the time comes, the prosperity of the country will be my betrothal gift to you."
These words are extremely ambiguous and romantic.
Throughout the past, there were countless princesses using their country as a betrothal gift, but how many of them could get the honor of using their country as a betrothal gift?
Xie Chunchao should have been happy, and so should she.
But she was surprised to find that she was not so happy. Instead, she was quickly calculating the pros and cons, gains and losses in her mind.
She loves him, but not much.
When it comes to her core interests, she can no longer be the fool she used to be.
"Send me off?" Xie Chunchao asked, "Are you planning to send troops alone?"
"Yes." Rong Shen said with a smile, "The Sheng Kingdom is in chaos due to the loss of Sheng Jiajun and Fang Fu. I am confident that I can conquer it with my own strength."
Xie Chunchao lowered his eyes and thought carefully. The annexation of other countries' territory is not just completed by defeating their country's army. The tens of thousands of officials and hundreds of millions of people below must be completely surrendered.
And Rong Shen led the troops to fight alone, which was a good time to deploy manpower. Even if the final territory was lost to Chu, he couldn't rest assured.
Seeing that Xie Chunchao was still silent, Rong Shen asked, "Why doesn't Chaochao say anything? Does it mean he doesn't like my betrothal gift?"
Xie Chunchao smiled and said, "Of course I like your betrothal gift."
"It's just... Even if the Sheng Kingdom is in chaos, the foundation is still there, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with for a while. I'm worried that there will be trouble if only the Xia Kingdom sends troops, so let's stick to the original plan."
"If you want to kill it alone and give it to me, our Chu soldiers can accompany you and only take action when the situation is critical. What do you think?"
Rong Shen didn't expect Xie Chunchao to say that, and he knew in his heart that Xie Chunchao didn't believe him.
He shook his head and smiled fondly, "Okay, I will listen to you."
"It's almost time." Rong Shen said, "Let's hurry back to the capital."
"I can't wait to announce to the world that you are my wife."
"There's no rush." Xie Chunchao said, "My men have been running around day and night these days. Let them get enough sleep first."
"That's fine." Rong Shen didn't refuse after hearing the words. This was his Xia Kingdom, and even if the people of Sheng Kingdom wanted to take action, there was nothing they could do.
prosperous country.
The prime minister of the Sheng Kingdom, Fang Fangfu, was assassinated in the street, causing his life to be in danger.
The emperor was furious that the thieves were so audacious. They simply regarded the national law as bullshit and despised the imperial power. He immediately ordered a thorough investigation. For a time, the government and the public were shaken, and everyone was in danger.
The busy crowd seemed to have forgotten that His Highness the Crown Prince had been on the island for three days, but there was still no news.
In the end, it was the officials along the coast who discovered that the people on the island had not landed for purchasing for a long time. They hurriedly sent people to the island to investigate the situation, only to find that their prince had been dead for many days!
Coincidentally, it was the day when the news of the prince's death came out.
Prime Minister Fang Fangfu, who had been in bed for many days, also died.
The successive deaths of the prince and the prime minister undoubtedly dealt a fatal blow to the people of Sheng. The whole government and the public were filled with grief, and Emperor Sheng was so sad that he turned his head overnight...
He angrily ordered an attack on Chu to force the Chu royal family to hand over the murderer of Prince Sheng Sheng Jiajun - Princess Chunhua.
