After he finished speaking, he smiled and looked at Tong Li
’I can’t accept this praise from you. I’m useless.”
Tong Li pondered for a moment
‘Your Highness, I will definitely protect you…‘
’Marshal, why do the royal family’s children hold their coming-of-age ceremonies two years earlier than normal?‘
’…The royal family is noble.‘
Junxu laughed
’That’s because they understand the ways of the world early.‘
There was silence in the tent for a long time, and suddenly Tong Li jumped up. The sword’s dragon-like sound could be heard, and the sharp tip of the sword was pressed directly against Junxu’s neck. He said coldly
’Do you want to die? !’
‘The Tong family has become so arrogant in Yue that they can point their swords at the crown princess?‘
’Just because you’re a pretentious crown princess, do you think that if you win this battle, the emperor will really pursue the truth about your death! It’s all your fault for shamelessly demanding to come to the northern frontier in the first place! The emperor has many children, and there are plenty of talented people everywhere. Besides, their clans are all very powerful. You? Hmph, do you really think of yourself as someone? !’
‘Even if you return alive, Su Ying will never look at you! You? You expect to be able to make a name for yourself on the battlefield?‘
’Oh… So what General Tong Xiao means is that the only thing I can do is to be forced to die for the country?‘
Tong Lu sat quietly, but spoke coldly at this moment
’Your Highness, at least this way there will be some glory.’
‘Haha, born dirty, die glorious? Maybe that mother of mine, who doesn’t even know what I look like, will praise me passionately?‘
’Your Majesty is kind-hearted and fair in your rewards and punishments.‘
Junxu laughed heartily
’Truly a wise ruler!
