All of a sudden, there were torches that lit up around him, giving him a scare, and even the curtains of the carriage was opened, and the light that was released for that moment was so bright that Zhuang Li was unable to open her eyes.

"Legend has it that Princess Ge Ya is the sun of Fanbo City, the treasure of a king. As Ling Que said that, he stuck his head into the carriage and used the fire tripod to walk around.

"Princess likes special things so I was prepared for it. I just didn't expect her to bring a whole box of explosives as a dowry …" "Huh?" His "ah" sounded both meaningful and teasing. His empty hand was just about to touch Zhuang Li's veil.

"Don't touch me!" Zhuang Li bellowed, and could not help but retreat and touch the wall of the carriage. Qing You had already returned, seeing the scene, the water bag fell to the ground and sprinkled.

"Princess, princess!" She ran up the carriage and blocked Ling Que outside. One look at the explosives and she understood that Zhuang Li told her to go get water in order to protect her life.

Ling Que also calmly raised his hand back, "This humble one shall advise the princess, that the explosives are a dangerous object after all, and the princess is not young anymore so she should be sensible and stop playing around with them. If anything happens to them, I will not go back and report." He looked at Zhuang Li meaningfully again, and took out a bunch of lead wires from her arms. It was the lead thread that Zhuang Li had placed in the box previously. Ling Que had unknowingly pulled it out, no wonder why it did not explode. Ling Que was already prepared!

Since the princess has agreed to the request of the great Feng for marriage, please take care of yourself and do not harm her body. Since this subject had promised Xi Liang that he would protect the princess' safety, he naturally had to do everything in his power to ensure that the princess would be safely brought back to the Great Phoenix. Princess, please treat this matter seriously, please don't … "It hurt our relationship …

His words were more like a warning to Zhuang Li not to act recklessly. Zhuang Li was furious, but she had nothing to say.

Since Ling Que had said enough, he naturally closed the curtain and went out. Zhuang Li went soft and fell down from her seat.

She closed his eyes. It seemed that Ling Que was very capable, and it would be difficult for his to find a way to cure him. If he returned to the Great Phoenix. Not only would he die, he would also implicate Ge Ya and Xi Cuo at that time.

Ever since that day, the number of people who guarded Zhuang Li seemed to have lessened, and only Ling Que and General Li stayed around Zhuang Li's carriage all day, as if warning him not to make unnecessary struggles.

had naturally seen that before, when he came to deliver the message using the West Cold as an envoy, she had thought that was very bold, and now, Zhuang Li only hated him to the point that his teeth were itching. It was only because Ge Ya wanted to settle the score with him that day, why did she stop Ge Ya. Killing him as soon as possible would save him the need to torture him today.

Not only was he always ridiculing Zhuang Li for being too naive, she also made Zhuang Li give up on the thought of suicide. She was just like an old granny who caused Zhuang Li to feel annoyed. She had even asked boring questions for a long time.

For example, do you all wear veils when you sleep? or perhaps there were so many women with West Cold, had only husbands ever seen their appearances? There was even a strange question about which brothel's girls were the most beautiful in West Cold?

Zhuang Li rolled his eyes countless times under her veil.

He had been chattering non-stop to Zhuang Li at the side of the horse carriage, it was more annoying than gossiping women. Zhuang Li did not know how she felt that he only brought a few porters with him to the West Cold with him. She was just a f * cking lecherous lunatic. Would he know that it was dangerous? He came to West Cold as if she was playing.

But Zhuang Li was still very afraid of him. Ling Que was too smart, so smart that he did not even have a chance to commit suicide.

The other General Li was different. He was a young man, and was also kind. There was a fundamental difference between him and Ling Que who was in his thirties.

Zhuang Li only roughly heard that he was someone close to the emperor, and was very trusted by the emperor to be her guard. It was the young general appointed by the Emperor. She had also accomplished great things by coming to West Cold, so he would definitely receive an extremely heavy reward.

Compared to Ling Que, he was much more pure and kind, spoke very little, and would occasionally let the soldiers silently bring him two quilts. His subordinates were extremely convinced of his abilities. They heard that even though he was young, he was already an expert in martial arts.

Ling Que would make fun of him when he was empty, so he was not angry.

All of these naturally had nothing to do with Zhuang Li. From the moment she left the Fanbo City, she no longer had any intentions of surviving. She had been taken care of by Xi Cuo and Ge Ya for an entire eight years, so she should naturally take care of them as well. Zhuang Li sat in the carriage, the scenes in front of her were like the passing lanterns and the theater in her life, playing out bits and pieces.

From the moment she crossed over to this era.

She thought that maybe she didn't love Xi Cuo from the beginning and didn't love him in the end either. However, there were too many reasons that prevented her from making such a choice.

She gave Third Prince a letter, telling him to bring it to Xi Cuo. The fate written above is over. Don't look for her. Don't ask about her. Think of her as dead.

When she saw the look in Third Prince's eyes, she knew that no matter how long it would take, this letter would definitely be delivered into Xi Cuo's hands.

And now the problem with life was. She never seemed to have a chance to kill herself again.

Then he could only follow them back to the capital? Where did she come from?

Back then, when she left the capital, she still remembered clearly what kind of state of mind she had. Zhao Mansion was not her home to her, and furthermore, she was not going back to the capital as the pure Zhao Ci. She was going into the palace.

The moment after her veil was her death.

They were on their way. At the end of the desert was Guan Shan. They entered the territory of the Great Phoenix.

If she had to be executed, what could she do to not implicate Qing You?

She opened the curtain, and saw that Little Flower had already spread her legs and was running around the horse, just like her father. She was jumping up and down, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, completely unaware of how much stamina she had saved.

Zhuang Li watched raptly, she did not expect that General Li was also looking at Little Flower.

"Princess, I don't know where you got this colt, but its strength is extremely astonishing."

"Zhuang Li smiled. Then she will give it to General Li. "There shouldn't be a place for me to raise a horse in the palace. It would be a pity if I were to become a small wild horse."

General Li was startled, he did not expect that he would simply ask the princess for a horse. He continued, "There is naturally a place in the Imperial Palace for the princess to raise horses. If you have just gone to find it strange or inconvenient, I can naturally help you raise horses. When the princess feels that it's appropriate, I'll send it over to her."

"Alright, as you wish." Zhuang Li closed the curtains and sat back down, in the carriage.

She had been sleeping worse lately, often all night long. He was finally tired during the day, but he was also in the middle of a bumpy journey, so he really couldn't sleep peacefully.

Seeing that she was in pain, Qing You massaged the acupuncture points on her palm at night.

Zhuang Li still had many things she did not understand. This situation looked like the secret West Cold was something Da Feng knew about from the very beginning. Wang Su? If there was Wang Su's intention to reorganize the West Cold this time, then why didn't he lead the troops? He had always been a competitive person.

Of the soldiers that came down from the West Cold Battlefield, they had never heard the words "Prince Su" before.

She opened her eyes, but she still could not fall asleep. Her mind was filled with questions and worries. The person who was about to die was still thinking too much. How laughable …

She shook her head, mocking herself.

Although the borders were still barren and barren, it could be seen that the security here was at least better than before. The horse carriage passed by a town. Although the people on the street were dressed simply, they were all clean and felt that the hearts of the people were at peace.

The Great Phoenix had already become like this. No one knew whose credit it was.

She had changed a lot in the past few years, but the more she changed, the more refined she became. She looked in the mirror, but could not find any trace of Zhao Ci. It felt like she was a completely different person. If they were to walk on the streets, would Prime Minister Zhao be able to recognize him?

The only explanation was what she had said to Zhao Ci's mother: My daughter, once she grows up, will definitely be as beautiful as me …

A group of people headed east, passing many towns along the way. It had already become vastly different from the atmosphere of that West Cold.

After travelling for half a month and not a single day, she finally arrived at the foot of the capital.

After parting for eight years, who knew what sort of scene it would be in the capital.

When the commoners saw the General Li, they started to make a commotion. It seemed that the General Li was already a well-known household name in the capital.

The fact that the Princess of West Cold had come to the Great Phoenix to be their protector was naturally something that everyone knew. There were cheers along the way, but none of them had any good intentions. The General Li did not care about them, and went closer to the carriage.

"Princess, please don't bother with them. The Emperor will definitely treat you well."

"Why would I bother with them? General Li is overthinking it …"

She was already a person on the verge of death. The moment she saw the emperor, she was a death sentence that would cause Da Feng to continue chasing after Ge Ya, but she believed that Ge Ya and the rest would have already found a way to deal with her.

Moreover, it might also implicate General Li and Ling Que, saying that they were doing poorly, etc.

But now, he had no choice but to brace himself and face such an end.

The palace door opened, and the General Li led the way in. The twelve palace doors were opened layer after layer, but to Zhuang Li, this was the sound of death.

Watching himself walk towards death without being able to stop it was not a pleasant feeling.

The morning assembly was already over, so the Princess of West Cold could not be left outside the palace. She could only bring them into the palace and have them report back at the same time.

The emperor was at the Heart Nurturing Palace, and when Qing You came out of Zhuang Li's residence, in that instant, she almost fell down. She stood outside the Heart Nurturing Palace and waited. At this time, only young eunuch was passing by in a hurry, and General Li entered with Ling Que for a long time. It was so long that Zhuang Li almost thought that the emperor would not meet her again today.

At this moment, the shrill and high-pitched voice of a eunuch came from inside the room.

"Announce Princess of West Cold to the palace!"

Following that, another young eunuch came out to support her and bring her inside. Zhuang Li walked slowly, step by step. She looked around, only to find that they were all glittering in gold.

She knelt before the Emperor and waited for the hand to pull his veil away. The emperor seemed to be slightly impatient as he took off her veil. He glanced at her and looked at Ling Que and General Li with a strange expression.

In that moment, the two men also saw the appearance of Zhuang Li under the veil, and they knelt down on the ground with a normal sound.

Zhuang Li also raised her eyes to the emperor in the moment of his death, and looked like she had been petrified.

She should have thought of this long ago, but she didn't believe it because she felt it was impossible …

She had asked about the title of Prince Su in the Great Phoenix and had received a negative answer. She had also wondered why Prince Su didn't go forth to battle, but it seemed like Da Feng was extremely familiar with the secret profound pathways …

There was only one reason for all of this.

That reason was now right in front of him …

Emperor Feng … It was not the Prince Bi that was previously blessed and favored by the heavens … Rather, it was Wang Su …
