After listening to Xiao Tuantuan's words, Guan Zhiyue looked at Li Qiji, crossed one arm over her chest, pinched her chin with the other, sized Li Qiji up and down, and then nodded.
"Okay, deal!"
Anyway, it's not like I'm the king. If this can increase the marching speed without spending money, what's wrong with this man sacrificing his looks for the sake of his country's people?
"Good, Master is indeed magnanimous!"
"Master, you are mighty!"
"Master, you're amazing!"
"Master, you're awesome!"
Guan Zhiyue: "..." This sounds a bit like a pyramid scheme!
"Stop! What kind of unspeakable secret are you two discussing? As a party involved, I have the right to know!" Li Qiji looked at the two people, one big and one small, who had so inhumanely made their deal with him.
Am I really so lowly and pathetic?
What kind of shoes are these? Did they really make you give yourself away?
"My wife, why are you so heartless?" Li Qiji looked at Guan Zhiyue with a pained expression.
Guan Zhiyue waved her hand and said, "Your Majesty, don't look at me like that. You should thank me, even though you sacrificed your beauty."
But it's better for you to get to Guantao County quickly, and with plenty of energy, than to be so exhausted like this!
"You think you can get there quickly with this thing you're holding? How can something so small get there so quickly? Give me a reasonable explanation!"
Li Qiji pointed to a bunch of dark, drooping things in Guan Zhiyue's hand.
Guan Zhiyue smiled and said nothing. She plopped down on the sofa next to her, bent down and put on the pair of roller skates, then slowly stood up.
He pried off the brake pads and walked out as if on flat ground. When he was in the yard, he pried the brake pads back on, and the wheels on his feet started to slide.
Guan Zhiyue bent over, reached out and held onto the wall to slowly stand up. Once she could maintain her balance, she began to glide confidently, dancing gracefully in the courtyard.
"So, this thing you bought with your body will surely increase your marching distance, and it can glide for a long time. The key is that we now have asphalt roads."
"Everywhere are smooth roads, so there's no need to worry about walking on those bumpy dirt roads." Guan Zhiyue explained to Li Qiji, who was standing at the door, as she slid along.
Li Qiji looked at the thing Guan Zhiyue was wearing on her feet and imagined if his soldiers all wore it, they might be able to arrive in Guantao County five or six days earlier.
“It’s quite good, but Yue’er, you only have one pair. We have an army of 100,000, and this isn’t enough!” Li Qiji said with difficulty.
Guan Zhiyue turned to look at Xiao Tuantuan and said, "Can you get 100,000 pairs? Or more? After all, the journey is long, and if they get damaged, there will be replacements, right?"
Little Tuantuan laughed so hard she lay down in mid-air, clutching her stomach, and said, "Master, you're joking! If a manufacturer can't even produce this much, then they shouldn't be running a company anymore; they should just quit."
Rosamund Kwan: "..."
You're right about everything, but it doesn't quite feel like that's the case!
After discussing it further, the two finally decided that Li Qiji would hold Xiao Tuantuan for a month, letting her sleep in his arms for an hour or half an hour at a time.
Furthermore, it was stipulated that when she fell asleep, she could not be put down and could only sleep in Li Qiji's arms.
Although Guan Zhiyue had no idea what Xiao Tuantuan was up to this time, she tolerated this unreasonable request in order to reach the border as soon as possible!
Li Qiji was truly speechless with bitterness. It was simply too much of a bullying. Holding a child to sleep is tiring, you know.
Anyone want to listen to his complaints?!
After the matter was settled, Xiao Tuantuan took about a hundred pairs of roller skates and hung them in mid-air for Guan Zhiyue to take! She then snuggled into Li Qiji's arms again.
She had only wanted a hug from Li Qiji, but she had made such a significant discovery. She should seize the opportunity!
It would be so wonderful to grow up soon and go out into the space to experience the outside world. If she really succeeds, she will be the first person in the space to do so!
That way she can regain her freedom and enjoy the glory of life, right?
Although the physical body will enter the space after death and continue to be the personal consultant of the weight loss space, at least it can experience the love, hate, anger and infatuation of the world!

The next day, Guan Zhiyue woke up on the couch inside the tent with great satisfaction. Li Qiji had stayed in the space the night before.
She really wanted to sleep on the big bed in that villa, but decided against it and left the space for Xiao Tuantuan to operate.
Li Qiji had been carrying Xiao Tuantuan around the space for most of the day. Xiao Tuantuan was feeling the changes inside her body, and it seemed that she would grow up very soon!
"Come out already! It's already daylight outside. If you don't come out soon, they'll start to get suspicious!" Guan Zhiyue communicated with Xiao Tuantuan telepathically.
Xiao Tuantuan left Li Qiji's embrace with satisfaction, flew into the air, and continued to tinker with the more than 100,000 pairs of roller skates.
Guan Zhiyue pulled the person out of the space. The two yawned and got dressed. Then they had someone bring in water to wash up. After discussing it for a while, they finally found an excuse to take out their roller skates.
——
"Your Majesty, what is this thing? Why does it have wheels?"
"Yes, what is this thing? It's so amazing!"
"Nephew, what is this? It's all black, and there are slippery wheels inside." Li An reached out and picked up a pair of roller skates, examining them from all angles and asking questions.
After patiently explaining to everyone how to wear it, Li Qiji began to demonstrate. It took about half an hour for everyone to try it on and even glide through it.
The ministers were all curious about where their emperor had gotten these things, but Li Qiji casually made up a story that he had seen them while shopping in Jiangzhou Prefecture with the empress, so he bought them all.
Anyway, I just gave everyone a vague answer and managed to gloss over it with a few words.
Time flew by. Since they put on these roller skates, what was originally a two-week journey took them only ten days to reach Guantao County, five or six days ahead of schedule. This was the fastest forced march they had ever made.
——
Guantao County.
"Phew, it wasn't easy. We've finally arrived. My legs are killing me."
"Yeah, but having this thing makes things much better than when we were walking."
"Hey, who says it isn't! It is!"
The soldiers chattered amongst themselves, feeling a mix of emotions as they were about to go to the battlefield. But defending the country was their duty; without a country, where would their home be?
Everyone was in high spirits, their demeanor suggesting they wouldn't stop until they had completely crushed Japan!
