Everyone in the tribe says that if it weren't for the young mistress traveling a thousand miles to deliver the news, many families would have lost loved ones.
As Zhao Tingduo finished speaking, she pulled Song Liyun close to her chest, rested her chin on her ear, and said in a muffled voice, "Do you know? With the medicine and knife you gave me, I saved three lives."
You truly are the guardian deity of my tribe, as my grandmother described. Yun'er, I swear to the gods, I will never let you down in this lifetime.
"Once the Uda tribe has a fixed territory like some of the royal tribes, I will build houses and castles, giving you the most fortified and luxurious home."
Song Liyun felt her ears burning from Zhao Tingduo's hot breath. She poked him away with one finger and scolded him, "I'm not a woman who can be satisfied with empty promises. If we don't get along in the future, I'll build my own city."
Zhao Tingduo, though exposed, wasn't annoyed. Instead, she leaned closer like a taffy, saying, "Yun'er, you can't abandon me while you're building the city! I'll be your Great General and fund it for you!"

Zhao Tingduo picked up a string of beads and chuckled, "These things were all harvested from the Dongyue tribe. You can use them yourself if you like, or give them away as gifts if you don't. You can also sell them for money, as long as you're happy."
Song Liyun glanced inside and was immediately stunned.
The box, which was over a foot tall, was filled with gold, silver and jade artifacts, ranging from jewelry to small ornaments, a dazzling array of everything imaginable.
