Chapter 76 Princess Yaxi

Under the rule of the current Emperor Suian, Dasui has become a powerful and unified country.

Emperor Jingyue of Suian worked hard to govern the country. He had great talent and strategy, and he was able to identify virtuous ministers and distinguish treacherous ministers. He was able to let the singing phoenix rise to the sun, and the country prospered with peace and tranquility.

But in fact, before Emperor Suian ascended the throne, Dasui's fate was about to end.

Two hundred years is enough for a country to go from prosperity to decline, and this is what happened to Dasui.

At that time, there were many small countries in the Central Plains, and Dasui was just one of them.

In contrast, there are powerful and strong grassland tribes.

In order to gain a brief peace, emperors of various countries either sent princesses to marry or signed a series of unequal treaties. The previous emperor did the same.

That year, Jing Yue was still a fifteen-year-old boy, ranking as the thirteenth prince, and his presence was extremely low among the princes and princesses.

He had no lofty aspirations, no ambitions, he just wanted to protect his mother, and be fortunate enough to be crowned a king and given land, so that he could spend the rest of his life there.

Until that night, he met his sixth sister in a secluded corner.

In his impression, the Sixth Princess was domineering and arrogant, with a pair of slightly raised phoenix eyes that showed a fierce and fierce look.

But at this time, she was sitting by the pool with one leg hanging in the air, her foot even immersed in the water, and the other leg crossed. Her sitting posture was carefree and heroic, but not in accordance with the rules. There was no one to serve her, perhaps they had all been scolded and left.

His usually cold and gloomy face now looked a bit more confused and sad.

Hearing the voice, she glanced over, her upturned almond-shaped eyes were still intimidating, but less domineering.

Not wanting to cause any unpleasantness, Jing Yue called out "Sixth Sister" and was about to leave.

But only a calm voice came: "Thirteen, come and sit down."

Jing Yue was slightly stunned and sat beside her obediently.

The two of them were not close, and had spoken no more than ten sentences to each other. He didn't understand why the Sixth Princess called him.

"Thirteen, the grassland has sent an envoy to propose marriage." The voice was still cold, as if it was not a serious matter.

But Jing Yue knew that this time, the person chosen was the Sixth Princess.

"Huh." She sneered, "I've never left the palace before, but I have to go on a long journey this time. But I can never come back."

Jing Yue remained silent.

"It's better not to come back. This palace is cold and depressing. It's not a place for people to stay." The Sixth Princess spoke to herself and didn't want Jing Yue to agree with her.

"Thirteen, if you have the chance, you must do your best to leave, leave the palace, and leave the capital." The cold voice suddenly softened a little, although it was not much, but it was enough to make Jing Yue look sideways. She then said: "Sometimes, I really envy you princes."

"Even if I will be in danger of death soon, at least I have a chance of survival. I won't have to go far away and suffer humiliation and abuse."

"Da Sui..." Her voice became long and drawn out, as if she was sighing, or looking forward to it: "Will there be a day when we don't need the princess to marry to gain peace?"

Jing Yue stared at her in a daze, watching the moonlight shining into those narrow eyes, tinging them with softness and brightness, revealing the emotions in them one by one.

The Sixth Princess, who used to be as domineering as a rose, looked up at the night sky, her pale lips slightly parted, her tone calm, sad, yet hopeful: "I am not the first princess to marry a foreign princess, but I hope to be the last."

"I just hope that from now on, there will be no more princesses marrying into other countries."

"It's just... impossible."

The word "impossible" fully expresses the sadness of reality. Both of them know that the current prince is weak and extravagant, and spends his days in a life of debauchery.

Does Dasui still have a future?

No one knows.

"Little Thirteen, you have to take good care of yourself in the future. I hope we can see each other again someday." Before leaving for a distant place, the Sixth Princess finally took off her thorns and revealed her gentle and kind heart.

Jing Yue opened his eyes slightly wide, looking at the sharp and upward phoenix eyes that were slightly curved like a crescent moon, clean and bright, with a full smile.

In this cannibalistic palace, everyone has to wear a cannibalistic mask and hide their true heart in order to preserve their lives and stay safe.

The Sixth Princess left, and Jing Yue stared at the calm lake, lost in thought for a long time.

After a long time, he picked up a fist-sized stone and threw it into the lake.

Suddenly, with a loud "bang", waves spread out in all directions with the stone as the center. The waves were huge and turbulent, causing a pool of stagnant water to churn up, as if the Dasui Dynasty, which was already living in a numb state and whose fate was coming to an end, was once again filled with new vitality, which would be enough to make the entire lake roll in time.

The person who did this was Jing Yue, who only wanted to be granted land and crowned a king and live a stable life.

How can a golden fish stay in a pond? Once it encounters wind and cloud, it transforms into a dragon!

The real dragon roams the four seas, changing the clouds and rain, with dazzling auspicious light, and great changes in the world.

After lying dormant for several years, fighting for power, and walking through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, Jing Yue ascended the throne at the age of twenty-three.

He then appointed a series of important officials, such as the great general Chu Yi, the prime minister who was second only to the emperor, the talented and virtuous Lord Wen Qingjue, and many trusted ministers.

Immediately, corruption was strictly investigated and all the stolen money was confiscated into the state treasury. The government increased revenue and reduced expenditure, developed the economy, and filled the state treasury.

After he became rich, he raised an army, and his weapons and military tactics were also very good.

Dasui's series of actions attracted Caoyuan's attention.

The grassland sent envoys to propose another marriage alliance.

On the high seat, Jing Yue supported his forehead, his eyes under the pearl curtain were calm and indifferent: "I wonder how Princess Yaxi is doing?"

The envoy raised his chin, full of arrogance and disdain: "Of course everything is fine. The king and the young chief of our tribe are very satisfied."

After the words fell, there was dead silence. Jing Yue's face was gloomy, and his sharp eyes were fixed on him.

Although everyone knows what happens to the princess who marries a foreign prince, it is always different to hear it with your own ears.

Thinking of the gentle smile of the Sixth Princess in his memory, Jing Yue clenched his back teeth and closed his eyes tightly.

"You said that the purpose of this trip is to marry a princess?" His voice was calm, but it made the hearts of the ministers who were familiar with him beat fast.

The envoy didn't know and nodded in agreement.

"Very good." Jing Yue said calmly: "Go back and tell your king that from now on, Dasui will not marry again!"

"Huh?" the envoy was surprised.

"Take your people and leave the capital today." Jing Yue was filled with anger and said word by word, "Otherwise, I will make sure you don't live past tomorrow!"

These words instantly ignited the fuse of the war between Dasui and the grassland.

Jing Yue was no fool. He had sent Chu Yi to station troops at Yunan Pass long before this, ready to mobilize troops for war at any time. He also sent secret guards to sneak into the grassland to bring Princess Yaxi back.

However, Princess Yaxi never returned.

She stood on the border of Dasui, looking at her home country that she had been away from for a long time, looking towards the direction of the capital, and smiled bitterly: "Xiao Shisan, you finally trapped yourself within the red wall."

"The throne is supreme, but are you still happy now?"

The princess, who was once as bright as a rose, now looked pale and haggard, and as thin as a bamboo pole. Suddenly, her throat felt itchy and she coughed up a handful of blood - she had already been terminally ill.

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he smiled with relief: "Forget it, this is your decision."

"From now on, there will be no more princesses marrying into other countries."

"Xiao Shisan, we still don't meet, which only adds to our sorrow."

Facing the direction of the imperial palace, the princess straightened her back, raised her chin slightly, bent her knees slightly, her eyes were confident and gentle, and her posture was elegant and noble.

During the years on the grassland, she always maintained the dignified demeanor of a princess, even though others looked at her with contempt and ridicule.

Today, she finally stood on her homeland, washed off the dirt and looked towards the unrivaled Emperor Dasui with grace, pride and confidence.

"Your Majesty, may you live a happy and smooth life for the rest of your life. May the country be prosperous and the people strong in the future. May the world be peaceful and the seas and rivers be calm."

"This princess is...Princess Dasui."

“No one can be bullied, no one dares to humiliate.”

When the news came that Princess Yaxi committed suicide on the border, Jingyue stood inside the palace wall, gazing at the border of Dasui, lost in thought for a long time.

"Royal sister, from now on, there will be no more princesses marrying into the royal family in Dasui."

"Princess Dasui is unrivaled in her dignity and deserves to be pampered and treated with all her heart, and will never suffer any grievances again."

"Jing Yue swears here."

After that, Dasui recovered from its decline and prospered. Emperor Suian selected virtuous and capable people, reformed the imperial examination system, and clearly defined rewards and punishments. Virtuous officials were able to display their knowledge and lofty ambitions, and Dasui finally achieved peace and tranquility in all directions.

The status of a princess is the most noble in history.

In particular, Her Royal Highness the Seventh Princess Jingxuan, who was deeply favored by Emperor Suian.

This person, if he stamped his feet, the imperial palace and the capital city would shake three times, which was truly shocking.

The capital city has been shaking for a long time recently, and the reason is simple - something happened to the little princess.
