Song Xiaoxiao smiled. Yes, this is the path that Brother Stone should take. His name is Han Zhong, General Han!
Song Xiaoxiao spent her days and nights at home longing to reunite with Han Zhong. She rejected all marriage proposals, and even when her mother pressed her for details, she didn't tell anyone.
She knew that one day, everyone would understand that her wait had been worthwhile.
However, when she heard that Long Xiaoxiao had actually received the title of Princess Protector of the Nation, her resentment grew wildly.
But she could only harbor resentment in her heart; there was nothing she could do.
For a moment, she doubted whether her decision was right. She was already familiar with the palace, so why couldn't she take a chance?
Thinking about this, she felt a little regretful, especially while eating the hard-to-swallow cornbread.
She missed the luxurious food and clothing in the palace. Although she was reserved there, the food was always exquisite.
Even after marrying into the Prince An's household, she never neglected her food and clothing.
For a moment, it felt as if two little people were arguing inside my head.
"I really regret it. If I had gone to the palace to take a chance, maybe I would be the Protector of the Nation Princess now?"
"Come on, you're not a princess after all. If you get recognized, you're doomed."
"How will you know if you don't try? Don't you want to eat sweet pastries and meals prepared by the royal chef?"
"The only good thing about the palace is that there's no freedom. Why don't you mention that? And that scumbag Prince An's heir, how can he compare to Brother Stone?"
...
She finally convinced herself that as long as she married Brother Stone, everything would be worth it.
We will have fine clothes and delicious food again. As long as we get through this difficult period, everything will be alright.
After figuring things out, she went to the Han family home every day to help Han Changhe with chores. No matter what Han Changhe told her not to, she insisted on doing the work and wouldn't listen to him, making Han Changhe feel extremely cautious and like he was walking on thin ice.
He had no choice but to leave early and return late every day to avoid Song Xiaoxiao.
He understood his son's thoughts. Although it was wishful thinking, how would he know if it would come true if he didn't try?
At this time, Han Zhong was fighting on the battlefield. He was born with superhuman strength. When he escorted the Seventh Princess back to the capital, the Seventh Princess taught him many things.
He felt as if his mind had suddenly opened up, and he understood many things he didn't know before.
This made him invincible on the battlefield, and he was quickly discovered by his superiors, and his position rose one after another.
?
Xiao Li wasn't idle either. As the princess who protected the country, she had to make some achievements to live up to her title.
"Brother, this is a food I discovered in the southwest. If it is promoted, it will surely solve the famine among the people."
Xiao Li presented Long Yifei with a sweet potato vine, and Long Yifei was overjoyed.
He was worried about the empty granary. If this crop was really as his sister said, high-yielding and easy to grow, that would be wonderful. This sweet potato came just in time.
"A reward! Xiaoxiao, you truly deserve to be our protector princess!"
After tasting it, Long Yifei went to the princess's residence to confirm the high yield. Overjoyed, he summoned the Ministry of Revenue to cooperate with the Ministry of Agriculture to promote it as quickly as possible.
Such a good crop should definitely be promoted throughout the country.
"Xiaoxiao, you have done another great service. People all over the world will remember you."
Long Yifei was sincerely grateful to his younger sister, Xiao Li. He was a truly good emperor who cared about the people, which was why Xiao Li was willing to help him govern the country better.
Three years have passed.
Song Xiaoxiao eagerly awaited Han Zhong's arrival in Huai Shu Village, but Han Zhong was oblivious, having already been promoted to deputy general.
"Deputy General Han, you have made great contributions this time. The general has specially granted you a month's leave so you can go back and visit your elderly father."
Commandant Chen teased the young deputy general.
"And you can also take care of your important life event at the same time. You're sixteen this year, right?"
Han Zhong blushed, recalling the unforgettable girl from three years ago.
Is she doing well now?
Han Zhong changed into civilian clothes and went to the underground trading market, where there were many rare treasures. He wanted to find one as a gift.
Recalling the battle half a month ago, he was almost pierced in the heart by an arrow, but at the critical moment, the talisman came in handy.
She shielded him, which is why he was unharmed.
"You saved my life again!"
Han Zhong was certain that if he hadn't met the Seventh Princess back then, it would have been questionable whether he and his father could have survived, let alone have enough to eat and drink every day.
Later, in Huai Shu Village, it was also thanks to the miracle brought by the Seventh Princess that the village remained safe and sound.
Furthermore, on the way to the capital, the Seventh Princess imparted valuable knowledge to him and bestowed upon him a talisman before he left.
"I remember all the kindness you've shown me, and I'll treat you even better in return. No one will ever dare to bully you!"
Han Zhong looked at the shiny stone in front of him and smiled, thinking that the Seventh Princess would definitely like it.
How much is this bracelet?
The vendor's eyes lit up—business was on the way!
"Sir, you have a good eye; you've chosen the best item on my stall."
He said mysteriously, "Sir, to be honest, this item comes from the West, and this is the price."
He gestured with his hand, and Han Zhong understood.
He took out a gold leaf, which the vendor excitedly accepted. He then put the gold leaf in an exquisite box before handing it to him.
"Please take care, sir. If you need anything, please come again next time."
Han Zhong nodded, put the box in his pocket, and walked out.
In the end, he carried a load of goods out of the underground market, and before he knew it, he had bought so much.
Han Zhong walked along, glancing around. His left shoulder was covered in light fur, making it uncomfortable to walk.
Finally, his eyes lit up, and he quickly walked to the corner, moved the two small stones on the ground into the basket, making it about the right weight.
Ten days later, he arrived in the capital, travel-worn, and finally entered the city before the city gates closed at night.
"Is this a gift for me?"
Xiao Li picked up a string of glass beads, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Who would have thought that glass bead strings, which are no longer worn by elementary school students in the modern world, would be treasures at this time?
Han Zhong nodded and pushed the frame in front of him; these were all for the Seventh Princess.
"Master, there really are treasures inside."
123 was a little excited; it had found a treasure.
"Oh~ what is it?"
Xiao Li flipped through it, but there was nothing special about it.
Han Zhong's gaze followed Xiao Li's hand, and there it was...
How could he be so careless? Why haven't he thrown away those two stones yet?
Xiao Li picked up the stone. "I'll accept the gift. I like it very much. Thank you!"
Han Zhong was a little embarrassed; he really hadn't done those two stones on purpose.
Xiao Li played with the stones, and to her surprise, she used her divine sense to see that the two stones actually contained top-quality jadeite.
These two stones are priceless.
"Princess, I am now the deputy general."
Xiao Li nodded, "You're amazing!"
