"Stop!" Ji Xuan's head was about to explode, and she immediately waved her hand to stop. "So many questions, which one do you want me to answer first?"
"I'm sorry, Your Highness. I got a little carried away and talked too much!" Ji Xuan said, and Yue Chen felt embarrassed as well.
"Then pick the question you most want to know and ask me!"
"Can there only be one?" Yuechen asked pitifully.
Damn it! Ji Xuan felt her heart beating a little fast. "Then, then I'll allow you to ask two questions!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Yue Chen was immediately delighted upon hearing this.
The pitiful puppy suddenly transformed into a bouncy little rabbit.
"There's nothing to thank me for!" Ji Xuan said nonchalantly, wondering why this little fool was so happy about it.
"Hey, hurry up and tell me, what do you want to ask!"
"First, I'd like to ask Your Highness, is your Rakshasa Sword truly effective against one enemy at a time?" Yue Chen looked at Ji Xuan expectantly, eager to know the answer.
"That's right, the Rakshasa Sword is made from extraterrestrial meteorites, so it's naturally incredibly sharp. On the battlefield, isn't it about killing enemies one by one with a single sword strike?"
"Then, Your Highness, haven't you killed many enemies?"
"Of course! On the battlefield, swords have no eyes; it's either you die or I live. To survive, you naturally have to take action when you encounter an enemy! What, are you scared because you think I've killed too many people?"
"I'm not afraid!" Ji Xuan shook her head. "That's right, Your Highness, wouldn't it hurt a lot if you were injured?"
"On the battlefield, who can avoid getting hurt? Especially since I'm the leader, I naturally have to fight even harder. Getting hurt is normal sometimes; you get a scratch here, a poke there, that's all normal. Let me tell you, once I accidentally cut my arm, but I didn't even realize it. I was just focused on fighting. Later, I realized something was wrong—why was my arm so cold? When I got back to the camp, the medic said I had lost too much blood; my face was pale. In the end, he made me lie in bed for a week, which was so boring."
"Your Highness~"
"What's wrong? Let me tell you, one of my soldiers is even funnier. During a battle, her pants got punctured, and by the end, her butt was sticking out. She kept complaining that her butt felt like it was leaking air today!"
Ji Xuan found it hilarious just thinking about it; the man ended up covering his backside and slinking back to his tent in embarrassment.
She wanted to tell a few more interesting stories from the military camp, but when she looked up, she found that Yuechen's eyes were filled with tears.
"No, what's wrong? Did I scare you?"
Ji Xuan hurriedly tried to wipe away the other person's tears, but she didn't have a handkerchief with her. In her panic, she tried to use her own sleeve to wipe away the other person's tears.
"Your Highness!"
Yuechen was immediately amused; who uses something like that to wipe away tears?
"What's wrong? Don't cry! I didn't bring anything with me. Sigh, I knew I shouldn't have told you all this. You young man, you probably haven't been out much, you must have been scared when I said all this."
Ji Xuan regretted that she shouldn't have spoken of war so impulsively, fearing she had frightened the young man.
"I wasn't frightened at all, Yuechen just felt sorry for the Prince! The Prince was out there protecting the country and even got injured, yet those people still spoke ill of him like that, it was really too much!"
As Yuechen spoke, she looked distressed.
"Ah, is that all? Sigh, I'm used to it! Let them say what they want, it's no big deal! I don't care!" Ji Xuan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that she wasn't the one who was scared.
"Yuechen cares! Your Highness, you are Yuechen's idol! Yuechen will not allow anyone to say such things about you! No, Yuechen has to go and clarify things for you. Your Highness, you are clearly a great person! A great hero who protects the country and is devoted to the people!"
"Tsk, I didn't expect you to think so highly of me!"
Ji Xuan didn't expect this silly girl to think so highly of him. Tsk, she's quite cute!
"That's right, Your Highness is a great hero!"
"Alright, alright, whatever you say! But, do you want to go find your young men?" Ji Xuan wanted to say that all those young men were after the other princesses.
Only after being asked this did Yuechen realize that she had been out for quite some time.
"Oh dear, I forgot! I've been out for quite a while now, it's time to go back!" Yuechen said anxiously. "But Your Highness, I'll go tell them first, and I'll come back to find you later." With that, Yuechen skipped away.
As Ji Xuan watched his departing figure, the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up.
"This silly boy, forget it, I'll go and meet them with you!" Ji Xuan was afraid that Yue Chen would be bullied by those young men, so she decided to go and see as well.
"Ziyun, Shangyi, you're all here!"
"Yuechen, where have you been? Why are you out of breath! Hurry up and tidy yourself up, the Crown Princess and the other princesses will be here soon!" Shangyi hurriedly went over to help Yuechen straighten her disheveled clothes.
"I... I went somewhere else for a while," Yuechen said apologetically.
"Hey, Yuechen, you didn't actually go to see the Prince, did you? If you ask me, aren't you afraid that if the Prince gets upset, you'll lose your head!" Ziyun Langjun said with ill intent.
"You're talking nonsense, the prince would never do that!" Yuechen quickly retorted.
"What, haven't you heard? A young man stripped naked and climbed into the prince's bed, and the prince had him wrapped in a quilt, carried out the door, and thrown out! Yuechen, I advise you not to be too eager."
"You, you, this only shows that the prince doesn't like that young man!"
"Anyway, I'm just trying to be helpful! Your Highness is not someone to be trifled with!"
"You!" Yue Chen wanted to retort, but Shang Yi pulled him back, "Stop talking, the Crown Princess and the other princesses are here!"
"Greetings to the Crown Princess, and greetings to all the princesses!"
"Gentlemen, you've been waiting for a long time!"
"It is our honor to be able to wait for the Crown Princess!" Ziyun immediately chimed in.
"Yes, yes, it is our honor to have the Crown Princess and all the princesses here!" Another young man immediately chimed in with flattery.
Seeing this, Ziyun glared at the young man, then turned around and began to flatter the Crown Princess again.
"Your Highness, your outfit today is truly dazzling!"
"It's just some new fabric that was brought up from below!" The Crown Princess waved her hand, indicating that it was not worth mentioning, but she was still very happy inside.
This young master Ziyun is quite something; he even noticed such a small thing. She specially wore this new dress for today's banquet.
"Only such fine fabric is worthy of the Crown Princess's status!"
As soon as Ji Xuan arrived, she heard Zi Yun's flattery.
Tsk, how boring, they can even praise clothes to the skies.
However, it seems that His Majesty also bestowed some of the fabric from the dress the Crown Princess was wearing, and she probably put it in the storeroom.
