No matter what the reason was for Du Shuting to appear in the Fu Mansion, he must investigate it thoroughly.
A princess from a foreign country appeared in the palace of a prince from another country.
It is neither because of diplomatic marriage nor because of visiting the country. What is the reason?
Gu Yunfei frowned.
This was his thoughts drifting back to a long time ago.
Those blue eyes were the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen.
……………………
At that time, he was ordered by the emperor to come to the border and expel foreigners.
As the leader of several small foreign countries, the State of Du is very arrogant.
They thought they could unite to deal with the mighty Dazhong Dynasty. The Dazhong Dynasty, adhering to the principle of friendly diplomacy and respect for these small foreign states, often offered assistance when natural or man-made disasters struck. Unexpectedly, they colluded secretly and even harbored delusional ambitions to invade the Dazhong Dynasty.
However, due to the huge disparity in strength, they were defeated and fled in all directions.
Gu Yunfei has never been interested in chasing after a drowning man. He looked at the current situation, sitting on his horse as steady as a rock, scanning the fleeing soldiers with his eagle-like sharp eyes.
The army of the Dazhong Dynasty behind him was lined up in neat rows like steel giants, with a magnificent momentum that made people tremble with fear.
In the panic, one warhorse never retreated.
The man on the warhorse used all his strength to control the direction of the horse, and the horse was frightened by the roar of his companions.
It waved its front hooves, trying to escape with the others.
"Jixiang, go and see what's going on." Gu Yunfei pointed at the warhorse in front.
"Yes!" Jixiang accepted the order.
Seeing Jixiang coming over, the warhorse still showed no intention of fleeing, and the person on the horse had already controlled the horse's emotions.
After a while, Jixiang brought the person in front of Gu Yunfei.
"Keep your head up, why don't you run away?"
The man in front of him was slender and the armor he wore was obviously ill-fitting. He lowered his head and remained silent.
Gu Yun had been in the army for many years, but this was the first time he saw the enemy soldiers refusing to flee when they were defeated.
If you don't run, you will die.
"Speak." Gu Yunfei said, drawing his sword and putting it against the man's neck.
The body trembled noticeably, but he still didn't speak.
Gu Yunfei looked him up and down until his eyes fell on his fair and delicate hands. He couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise. They didn't look like a man's hands, especially those of soldiers who had been on the march and in battle. Their hands were always rough, calloused, and shiny black.
"Father said that there was a piece of land there that belonged to our Du country before. What's wrong with us taking it back now?" A clear voice sounded.
The owner of the voice raised his head, and what came into view was a three-dimensional and beautiful little face with blue eyes as clear as lake water.
Her face was still childish, and her little mouth was pouting with an indignant expression.
Even Jixiang, standing nearby, felt a little embarrassed: according to military orders, she was to be killed. But seeing her little face, he couldn't bear to do it.
"Who is your father? He said that our Dazong Dynasty occupied a piece of his land in the past, right? Then does he know that the current Du Kingdom was separated from the Dazong Dynasty?"
"You're talking nonsense. My father would never lie to me. It was you who occupied our land." The girl's tone was a little excited. She jumped off the horse and ran straight to Gu Yunfei.
