The princess turned around and saw Luo Lingyu standing at the door of the tent with a bowl of soup and a surprised look on her face.

The princess's hasty cover-up was not enough to eliminate the evidence in the account. Luo Lingyu frowned, put away her smile, and looked at Lu Yun with a frosty face. Lu Yun said calmly: "Things are not what you think."

Luo Lingyu's eyes were full of anger. She sneered, threw the bowl in her hand, and turned to leave. Before she left, she glared at the princess angrily, shaking with anger, but did nothing. The girl lifted the curtain and walked away. Lu Yun didn't even look around, but chased after her. Lu Yun hurriedly said, "Lingyu, listen to my explanation!"

The curtains were lifted and then closed, and the cold wind blew. She could hear the quarrel between the man and woman outside from a distance, and she was very angry. In the empty tent, tears fell one by one, and the princess of the North Kingdom put on her clothes in silence. The two men ignored her, and the princess of the North Kingdom hated them so much that she trembled even more violently. She had never been insulted like this before!

…

The first step that the Princess of the Northern Kingdom took into the Nanyang Prefecture military camp, the moment when the Princess of the Northern Kingdom seduced Lu Yun, the history between the two countries also moved forward a step. In the microcosm of the entire era, few people can see the trajectory of fate from this moment. Nanyang cannot do this, but in Jianye City thousands of miles away, Lu Erlang relied on his dreams to glimpse some traces.

The princess of the Northern Kingdom entered the Nanyang military camp during the day, and that night, Lu Erlang had a dream. In this dream, he finally saw the reason that killed his third brother.

The Northern Kingdom sent an envoy to negotiate with the Southern Kingdom. The Northern Kingdom envoys entered Jianye, but due to Lu Sanlang's early disclosure, the negotiation failed and the envoys returned home in shame. However, the Northern Kingdom princess was favored by the Southern Kingdom emperor and entered the emperor's harem. The Southern Kingdom emperor, who had been obsessed with seeking immortality for many years, finally had some worldly airs - the emperor favored this Northern Kingdom princess.

The Queen Mother's will was not enough to resist.

As the war between the North and South continued, after Nanyang won a great victory, the two sides formally negotiated. The emperor of the South, relying on his love for the princess of the North, made a lot of concessions. The court stopped providing supplies to Nanyang and demanded that Nanyang withdraw its troops and Lu Sanlang return to the capital. Lu Sanlang wrote a letter saying that the situation was unstable and he could not return to the capital. The princess of the North suggested killing Lu Sanlang, but the emperor of the South was hesitant.

The court was divided into two factions, and most people demanded that Lu Sanlang and General Wei return to Jianye. According to the negotiation, the emperor of the Southern Kingdom wanted to give Ruyang, Nanyang, Yingchuan and other neighboring counties to the Northern Kingdom in exchange for a hundred years of peace between the two countries. The noble families supported the court because they were unwilling to pay for the support of the army. In a loud voice, even the Lu family thought it was good for Lu Sanlang to return. Why bother with that rotten stall in Nanyang?

The whole court relied on Lu Sanlang's letter, and only Prince Chen argued that the situation in Nanyang was unstable and hoped to give Lu Yun more time.

But without soldiers or food, King Chen was alone. Even though he tried his best to make arrangements, he did not know the specific situation in Nanyang. He could only support Lu Yun based on the tacit understanding between friends for many years. He could not go against the overall situation. It was not until Lu Yun died that Lu Erlang regretted it. The Lu family regretted it. If they had known that time would come, they should not have forced Lu Yun to come back. They should have supported him to stay.

The Princess of the Northern Kingdom did not say anything more, but the outcome was already decided.

It was just that Lu Erlang's soul was wandering in his dream. He saw the envoys from the Northern Kingdom gathered together and saw the faint smile and hatred on the face of the Princess of the Northern Kingdom... He vaguely thought that there must be something else in Nanyang that gave the Princess of the Northern Kingdom such confidence. This princess might know the reason why Lu Yun refused to return to Jianye.

Lu Erlang was anxiously thinking: Why is this happening? Where did this princess' hatred come from? How did Lu Sanlang offend her?

Most of the hatred in the world is caused by shallow karmic connections but strong selfishness. Sometimes, just because that person didn't look at her more, the hatred would surge like a flood, causing a disaster. Then she would think: Since he doesn't know my goodness and doesn't show me mercy, why not just die?

Chapter 96

The next day, the Princess of the Northern Kingdom was determined to go out.

After all, she was a princess. Even if she felt so resentful and self-conscious when she was alone, she was still proud and cold in front of outsiders. The princess and her friends did not eat and live with the soldiers in the barracks, and they had a separate meal at noon. Luo Lingyu was not a soldier either, so she also had a separate meal.

When the princess of the Northern Kingdom went to eat, she happened to meet Miss Luo who was walking with her maid outside the dusty parade ground. The maid was carrying a food box, and Miss Luo was wearing a wide-sleeved dress and a long silk skirt. The many ribbons tied on her sleeves were blown by the wind, which made her look so elegant and graceful. Moreover, the girl's eyebrows were slightly frowned, her eyes were filled with mist, and her face looked weak and moving... What a peerless beauty that made me feel pity when I saw her.

When the Princess of the Northern Kingdom saw the girl, she turned around and wanted to leave, but she didn't expect that Luo Lingyu's beautiful eyes had already swept her and greeted her from a distance of more than ten feet.

Luo Lingyu, who had come closer, still had a look of sorrow in her eyes, and spoke to the princess in a listless voice: "...This is the lunch I made myself, and I'm sending it to Brother Xuechen."

The Princess of the Northern Kingdom couldn't help but say: "...You guys are not quarreling anymore?"

I vaguely heard the two of them arguing loudly outside last night.

Luo Lingyu smiled softly.

The maid Lingyu behind her twitched her eyelids, knowing that the girl was about to start again: She was just saying, she was walking just fine, why did the cousin suddenly change her expression, immediately becoming as pitiful as a pear blossom reflecting in the water. It turns out that the cousin was waiting here.

The Princess of the Northern Kingdom naturally didn't know. She only saw Miss Luo in front of her sighing and saying softly, "How can I blame Brother Xuechen? I was reckless last night. My husband is the heaven. I am just a little girl. What reason do I have to blame him? He can do whatever he wants. As long as Brother Xuechen is not angry with me and still wants me, it's fine. I just want to serve Brother Xuechen well. I am willing to be his slave."

The Princess of the Northern Kingdom felt a little uncomfortable, and her disdainful words were suppressed by her appearance. In this era, noble women always acted tough and rarely showed weakness. Luo Lingyu was like this... The Princess of the Northern Kingdom also tried to provoke Luo Lingyu: "I don't know what he told you, but he must not have told you that he had sex with me last night, right?"

Luo Lingyu once again held her heart like Xi Shi, her face full of sorrow, and she sighed with even more self-pity: "It's fine if you like it, I don't mind. I'm living under someone else's roof, with no one to rely on, and only Brother Xuechen is my only friend. Even if he wants to marry the princess and take me as a concubine, I'm willing. I've prepared a meal for Brother Xuechen, and I hope that he will not bother with me, and stop beating and scolding me, for the sake of my still being virtuous. Sob."
