Chapter 36 Jiujiu racked her brains to think of a solution
Yu Wanyin poked Jiujiu's arm, "...Princess, please stop being distracted. The eldest prince is talking to you."
"Ah?" Jiujiu looked at the eldest prince standing not far in front of her in confusion and asked, "Brother, what did you say?"
[Is the eldest brother in front of me the one in the book who went to the battlefield when he was a teenager and was therefore particularly fierce? ]
[He looks very fierce.]
[The ending was not good. ]
[Ten years later, when Western Chu fell, his head was cut off by the enemy general and used as a ball. What a pitiful man!]
Jiujiu and Yu Wanyin were sitting a little far away from the other royal relatives and Emperor Zhaoning, so no one else could hear Jiujiu's thoughts, only the eldest prince heard it.
The eldest prince already had a grudge against Jiujiu, and after hearing this, he became even more unhappy.
What nonsense are you talking about, you little brat?
How did the Western Chu Kingdom perish?
How could he end up badly, with his head cut off and played as a ball?
You have to understand that he is the eldest prince, and his true form is the Zuo Qinglong, one of the four divine beasts. Even if he went through a calamity, it wouldn't be that miserable.
But the next moment, Jiujiu shattered the eldest prince's beautiful fantasy.
[I remember the book also described that the eldest brother was an evil ghost in his previous life, and was reincarnated as a human for the first time, so he was so fierce in this life and his end was so miserable. ]
[He needs to cultivate for several more lifetimes before he can become humane and have a good ending.]
Evil ghost?
The eldest prince was furious and blurted out: "What nonsense are you talking about, you little brat?"
How did he become a demon?
The people around could not hear Jiujiu's thoughts. Seeing that the eldest prince suddenly got angry, they all looked at him in confusion.
"What's wrong with you, my prince?"
"Why are you talking to the little princess like that? The little princess just asked 'what did you say' and she didn't offend you, but you are so mean to her."
The eldest prince was somewhat embarrassed by the question. He coughed twice and said, "I, I just remembered a subordinate who was not doing his job well, so I cursed him a little, but not at the princess."
“I see!”
People around me don't care anymore.
The eldest prince pretended nothing had happened and smiled at the ministers around him. Then he came up to Jiujiu and looked down at her coldly.
"You little brat."
Jiujiu pouted and said, "Jiujiu is not a bad boy, Jiujiu is a little girl, very fragrant."
[Jiujiu still remembers that at the first banquet that the eldest brother attended after returning, not only was Sister Yu caught climbing a tree, but the eldest brother also knocked out three of his front teeth.]
[I think it’s this banquet! ]
[Jiujiu wants to remind the eldest brother to be careful, but he is so fierce, Jiujiu is afraid. Should Jiujiu remind him or not? ]
Jiujiu was muttering and struggling in her heart.
The eldest prince looked disdainful.
Will he knock out his front teeth?
That's ridiculous.
He is not a three-year-old child, how could he knock out his teeth?
On the opposite side, the prince noticed that the robe the eldest prince was wearing today was a bit long, and his expression became complicated.
Long robes were not a big deal for civil officials, because they were cautious and meticulous and would walk very carefully, but for military generals, it was not the same issue.
The general was rough and sturdy, and his steps were windy, so long robes were not suitable for him, and the eldest prince was likely to fall.
The prince kindly reminded him, "Brother, I see your robe is a bit long, please be careful when you walk, don't fall."
The prince was some distance away from Jiujiu, so he couldn't hear Jiujiu's voice. He spoke up to remind her out of kindness.
The eldest prince said disdainfully: "You worry too much, Prince."
"...Oh, okay!"
Jiujiu saw that the prince had tried to persuade her but it was useless, so she stopped trying and just kept muttering to herself.
【If you don’t listen to the advice of the elderly, you will suffer the consequences. 】
[When the eldest brother loses three front teeth and is laughed at as soon as he opens his mouth, he will know that he regrets it.]
【well……】
Jiujiu continued to eat the chicken leg in his hand.
The eldest prince was not convinced by Jiujiu's words, so he deliberately walked back and forth near Jiujiu, trying to prove that he would not fall or knock out his front teeth.
Jiujiu had no idea of the eldest prince’s strange thoughts. She ignored him and continued to stare at Yu Wanyin beside her.
Yu Wanyin smiled and saw that Jiujiu had only the bones left in the big chicken drumstick. She quickly took another one for Jiujiu and said, "Princess, eat more."
Jiujiu waved her hands, took out her pink handkerchief, wiped her mouth and hands, patted her bulging belly, and said softly, "Jiujiu is full."
"Then let's eat later. Shall we continue watching the song and dance?"
"I heard that the dancers today were all sent from the Southern Country. They are very special."
Yu Wanyin opened her eyes wide as she watched the dancers dancing in the center of the hall. She sighed, "Before, the Southern Kingdom poisoned itself at the banquet and tried to pin the blame on me, Western Chu, in order to force me to cede territory and pay compensation. But who knew that they shot themselves in the foot and ended up paying double the territory. It's really sad."
"I also heard that the Southern Kingdom couldn't come up with a lot of money in a short period of time, so it could only pay in installments, and even sent a hostage as collateral."
"Maiji came here with Proton."
After hearing these words, Jiujiu became serious.
The protons from the South Country are coming here too?
Who is it?
Could he be the male protagonist in the book who finally unified the world, married Feng Caiwei, and made her the queen?
After all, in the book, he was the only one who came to Western Chu as a hostage, but he did not come because of ceding land or paying compensation. He came because after the two countries started trading, the Southern Kingdom took a large batch of goods from Western Chu but did not pay, saying that it had no money, so it sent the prince here as a hostage as collateral.
They also said that when they paid off the debt, they would take their prince home.
But in fact, they just didn't want to pay, so they threw an unfavored prince over, wanting the prince to fend for himself and to avoid paying the debt at the same time.
Little did people know that the prince was no ordinary man. Even though he was in Western Chu and suffered abuse and humiliation, he did not resign himself to his fate. Instead, he turned the tide, returned to the Southern Kingdom, killed those who harmed him, and ascended the throne as emperor.
He also personally led an army to defeat the Western Chu that had caused him pain, and gradually unified the world.
This proton is a truly powerful, ruthless and decisive man in the book.
He is the real hero.
If the person who came to Western Chu as a hostage this time was him, then Western Chu would be in danger!
Sooner or later he will hate Western Chu and lead his troops to destroy it.
What should I do?
Jiujiu's uneasy little face was tightly wrinkled.
Now her stepfather, the queen mother, mother, and brothers all love and pamper her. She finally has a family and is no longer alone like in her previous life. She can't bear to leave her family, nor does she want the Western Chu Kingdom to be destroyed.
But what can she do to change all this?
Jiujiu racked her brains to think of a solution.
At this moment, a loud "bang" was suddenly heard.
Jiujiu felt the ground shaking, and she quickly looked towards the source of the sound.
The eldest prince fell to the ground, gave the ground an intimate hug, knocked out his front teeth, and had a mouth full of blood.
