Ganquan Palace.
A beautiful woman is dancing with a sword in the courtyard...
This woman is none other than the eldest princess Li Lizhi. Her name really lives up to her character, she is naturally beautiful and stunningly stunning!
Li Lizhi has not married yet, so she still lives in the palace. She is talented in both civil and military affairs and is loved and valued by the current emperor. She just returned from suppressing a rebellion in the southern border today.
Not only does she enjoy great prestige in the Zhennan Army guarding the southern border, but she is also a figure that the enemy country Nan Chu trembles in fear. It can be said that having Li Lizhi in the southern border is better than having 100,000 strong soldiers.
This time, the army of Southern Chu attacked the border, and it took her less than fifteen days to defeat Southern Chu and successfully put an end to the border war.
After Meng Yudie returned to the palace, she saw Li Lizhi dancing with a sword in the courtyard. She did not disturb her, but stood aside and watched.
After standing for a while, Meng Yudie still felt a dull pain in her body. She thought to herself that the princess should finish it quickly and go back to her room to rest as soon as the matter was reported, so as not to let the eldest princess notice anything.
"Yudie, how's it going? Did you beat up that little eunuch for me? Although I don't like that wet nurse, you have to look at the owner before you beat the dog. This little eunuch simply doesn't take this princess seriously."
Li Lizhi has always been unconventional in her approach and she tries not to argue if things can be solved physically.
Meng Yudie breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly walked up to Li Lizhi, bowed and saluted, but before she could report...
"Yudie, what's wrong? Why do you feel so light when you walk? Did you get so tired from dealing with a little eunuch?"
Li Lizhi frowned and looked at Meng Yudie.
"To answer the princess, I just twisted my waist accidentally and it hurts a little..."
Meng Yudie secretly groaned in her heart. She tried her best to act normal, but the princess still saw through some clues.
"How stupid! Be more careful next time!"
Li Lizhi did not ask any more questions. She was a bold and free-spirited woman who had never experienced sexual intercourse between men and women. She would never have thought that her personal maid would be raped in broad daylight.
Meng Yudie secretly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly, accepting Li Lizhi's criticism.
"Princess, I have taught that little eunuch a lesson, but I have something I would like to ask you to punish me for..."
"Don't hesitate, just tell me what you want to say."
Li Lizhi sat on the stone chair next to the stone table and motioned Meng Yudie to sit down as well.
From this simple conversation, we can see that although Meng Yudie is a maid, she has a very close relationship with Li Lizhi, and they get along like sisters.
Yes, the two of them went to the battlefield together. Although they were master and servant in name, their relationship was better than that of sisters. What's more, Meng Yudie had been with Li Lizhi since she was a child.
"Princess, I went to the torture chamber and found out that the truth was not as Rong Mama said. She was doing evil things in the torture chamber under the name of you, Princess. When I went to see her, she even made up stories about you to people she knew, saying that you were heartless and left her in the torture chamber to suffer. I naturally couldn't stand it. You also know that Rong Mama's mouth is really vicious. I was so angry that I accidentally beat her to death..."
Meng Yudie had already made plans on the way. The bad guy seemed to be a man of his word and would definitely kill Rong Mama when he returned. Besides, it was not uncommon for a maid to die in a violent room.
"This Rong Mama, she is so sarcastic and mean, I have already taken good care of her. Let her die, she has ruined my reputation."
Li Lizhi's expression did not show much emotion. She had seen so many dead people that she did not feel anything at all.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Meng Yudie knew that these were all trivial matters, so when Xing Bang said he wanted to beat Rong Mama to death, she did not object. Besides, she also hated that woman Rong Mama and had even punished her physically when she was a child.
"Okay, let's not talk about this. I have something else to worry about right now. This morning, I went to pay my respects to my father. He said that he would personally choose a husband for me to marry and that I should take good care of him and raise my children. His intention was obvious. He didn't want me to get involved in military affairs any more."
Li Lizhi took a sip of tea and then looked worried.
"Princess, His Majesty has been worried about your marriage since six years ago. After all these years, you still haven't married. Why are you so worried this time?"
Meng Yudie knew the most about Li Lizhi. The arrogant princess looked down on men like her. She would rather remain single than just marry someone, no matter how powerful the other person was. She would not buy into political marriage at all.
Li Lizhi shook her head. "This time is different from the past. I can't refuse anymore. Besides, His Majesty has always been wary of me. He is in poor health now, and the Crown Prince is still young...
After all, I am not from the Li family, I am just your Majesty's adopted daughter."
Li Lizhi's father was the Zhennan King, one of the kings of different surnames. He died in battle when Li Lizhi was very young, and her mother died in a pit due to deep love. The emperor adopted Li Lizhi as his adopted daughter, and the title of Zhennan King was inherited by Li Lizhi's youngest son. The current Zhennan King was only a twelve-year-old child.
Because the Prince of Zhennan had a very high prestige, Li Lizhi had been helping his brother deal with military affairs in the southern border for many years.
That's why Li Lizhi was upset. After all, the emperor is the most ruthless. The emperor is old and naturally would not want to see Li Lizhi command a large army again. He would only feel at ease if he let her marry a man of his choice to take care of her husband and children.
"In that case, Princess, from today on, I guess His Majesty will not let you go to the border again."
"Yes, we talked about this today. He said that my brother is not too young anymore and we should let him take charge on his own. Besides, he has so many great generals around him to assist him."
Of course, Li Lizhi trusted Meng Yudie the most, so she told her everything truthfully.
"That's right. After this battle, Nan Chu will not dare to attack again in the short term. The southern border is also peaceful, so..."
"Okay, Yudie, stop talking. No matter what, we should all be loyal to His Majesty. Remember, don't say anything disrespectful in the future."
Li Lizhi knew what Meng Yudie was going to say, and it must be something bad about the emperor, so she quickly signaled her to stop talking.
"Princess, don't worry too much. His Majesty hasn't issued an edict yet. Since it is inevitable, you should try to choose someone you like a little more."
Li Lizhi sighed again, "I haven't met anyone who makes my heart beat fast in all these years. There are only so many children of noble families in the capital, so how can I find someone I like? I have no choice but to marry, and it doesn't matter who I marry...
However, they are just a couple in name only."
"Princess, don't think like that. It's so pitiful to be alone and helpless..."
After Meng Yudie was raped, she found that her mood had changed a little.
