"This is called playing hard to get. Who told him to reject my marriage proposal three years ago?" Su Chen lay down on the bed and pulled the blanket over herself.
Three years ago, he publicly rejected her marriage proposal. As a woman in a matriarchal country, this was a huge loss of face, and for a whole year, it became the main topic of conversation among everyone.
"Tsk tsk, you're going too far. I think people are almost forgetting about you." Ning Wu looked at her with disdain.
"It's nothing, this is just a reminder to him." Over the past three years, I've laid many traps, subtly lurking in front of him even when nothing's amiss. Now it's time to reel them in.
Su Chen closed her eyes in a pleasant mood and soon fell asleep.
While one person was sleeping soundly, the other hadn't slept a wink all night.
Aside from factors like traveling through the night, the most important factor was... he couldn't believe that it was that woman who saved his life, that... woman he hated the most (you're just being stubborn).
Yuefeng admitted that he was a loyal and patriotic person who believed that national interests were above all else, but even such a person did not mean that he was not afraid of death.
He had followed Xuan Yu all the way since he initially believed Xuan Yu was the best heir to the throne. He only risked his life to let Xuan Yu go back and compete with the sixth prince for the crown prince position, knowing that the current crown prince appointed by the Prince of Xidong Kingdom was not the most suitable candidate.
With their deployments in Dongqiu Kingdom over the past three years, the position of crown prince is practically secured.
The turmoil in the Western Winter Kingdom was also orchestrated by Xuan Yu.
"drive!"
A man and a horse galloped away in the darkness, disappearing into the woods after startling a few birds.
————Border Pass————
Sand and stones flew, yellow dust filled the air, warhorses neighed, and scalding blood blinded the eyes.
After months of fierce fighting, Su Chen had just managed to recapture two cities, and today he was about to take back the last one.
From a distance, one could see a person standing on the city wall, dressed in black but without armor.
Just as Su Chen was wondering what was going on, she heard a voice from the city wall, using internal force, reach her ears: "General, how have you been?"
Su Chen suddenly looked up, squinted, and saw that the figure was none other than the villain.
It's true that this person never learns from his mistakes; he only escaped death a few days ago and is already looking for thrills on the battlefield.
Su Chen frowned, somewhat displeased.
Unexpectedly, a violent explosion rang out not far from Su Chen. Before Su Chen could even realize what it was, he was thrown off his horse.
Su Chen lay on the ground, her eyes shrouded in wisps of black mist. Before fainting, she didn't forget to curse and swear.
"This kid is too dark-skinned!"
...
The Eastern Autumn Kingdom lost a valiant general, who was said to have been blasted to pieces by gunpowder, his body so badly mutilated that it could not be pieced back together.
On the day the general fell, a tall, masculine woman and her subordinates collected the remaining fragments of the general's clothing from the battlefield and buried them in an earthen urn.
After that, the Western Winter Kingdom and the Eastern Autumn Kingdom ceased hostilities, and the Eastern Autumn Kingdom suffered a great loss of strength, allowing it to recuperate for the time being.
The third prince of Xidong Kingdom has returned, and his outstanding achievements on the battlefield have made him a sensation, subtly overshadowing the crown prince originally intended by the king of Xidong Kingdom.
The king's mind was wavering, and another huge wave was stirred up in the Western Winter Kingdom. The two princes' open and covert schemes and plots will not be mentioned for now.
After the final major battle between Xidong and Dongqiu, Dongqiu lost a great general but gained a concubine of the young marquis of Xidong.
