Chapter Five, A Commoner

Clearly, he came to mock us, yet pretends to be sending us off. Among all the princes, he is the most hypocritical; I think he should be called the false prince.

Zhi Yue was sulking, her watery eyes filled with a sense of grievance

Beneath that light green dress, her graceful and supple figure has already begun to take shape

Young master, you are so mischievous, deliberately trying to scare me!

But the person wants to walk along, and the legs belong to that person, what can he do

Li Zhan also frowned

Young master, going to Liangzhou is a long and arduous journey. With so few of us, what shall we do if we encounter bandits?

Oh?

If you want to follow, then go ahead and follow

You ... ... '' Li Jian's expression suddenly changed dramatically, and a hint of ferocity surged in his gaze as he looked at Li Zhan. However, soon after, that false smile reappeared on his face, '' How can a sparrow understand the ambitions of a swan? This king is too lazy to waste words with a lowly commoner like you! ''

If it weren't for the terrifying coldness in the other person's eyes, Li Zhan would have almost believed that he had found himself a good wife

Li Zhan waved his hand and returned to the car

Zhi Yue is not young anymore

Moreover, it is said that Liangzhou is the border area between the Great Qi Kingdom, Xixia, Khitan, and Tubo, which has been plagued by constant warfare throughout the year, and is extremely impoverished, to the extent that people cannot even afford to wear clothes

The servant beside him quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe, then made a gesture of wiping his neck, "Prince Jin, this Tang King is so down and out, yet still so arrogant, should we directly ... ... "

Li Zhan furrowed his brow, lifted the curtain, and gazed into the distance

What is important is the future

At this point, even a fool would understand what the other party is saying

Li Jian squinted his eyes, and a trace of barely noticeable surprise flashed in his gaze

I have already sent the letter of resignation to your residence, so there is no need for a long trip.

It is evident that the preparation is sufficient

In ordinary families, girls at the age of sixteen begin to discuss marriage.

Ah! Pfft, how could a dignified Prince of Jin be commented on by a mere servant like me?" Zhi Yue pretended to look pale, glancing around, "At such a distance, the Prince of Jin shouldn't be able to hear my words, right?"

"Is there really a bandit?" Zhi Yue was startled and quickly looked outside, "Hmm, it doesn't seem like it. Young Master, it appears to be coming from the direction of Bianjing."

The hooves kicked up, stirring a cloud of mud, as they raced away

"You left without even saying hello?" Liu Qingxue looked at Li Zhan, her gaze still icy.

There is no need for this!" Li Zhan said coldly

Li Zhan's brows furrowed even deeper

You are narrow-minded and behave in a vulgar manner, unable to tolerate others in the world, and likewise, the world cannot tolerate you

Li Jian reprimanded harshly, striking a whip across the face of the household servant

Immediately following, the sound of hooves thundered, causing a slight tremor in the ground

Li Zhan was rendered speechless with a laugh, this clever little girl

What happened last night is absolutely related to Prince Jin

Although she claims to follow her husband like a chicken follows a chicken and a dog follows a dog, she might take the opportunity to stab you in the back when you least expect it, sending you back to your hometown in no time

Ah! Young Master, is that not the Princess? How did she come here?

If I have offended you in any way before, I sincerely apologize here. I am now just a commoner, and you need not be so concerned. Moreover, Liangzhou is a place of bitter cold, which is certainly not suitable for a pampered young lady like you to stay in.

This king conducts affairs with utmost rigor, and even a single ant shall not be tolerated

Li Zhan's mouth twitched; he should have frightened her just now, making her obediently keep quiet

Casually crushed an ant that had crawled onto my hand

You see, you are unfeeling and ungrateful. Li Jian smiled with his lips but not with his heart, saying, "Well then, I wish you a safe journey, and please pay special attention to your safety"

Li Zhan's unrestrained sarcasm

Young master, there is a group of people following behind!

As the distance closed in, a figure in white came into view

Li Jian was caught off guard and nearly knocked over

Stop acting!

Li Jian narrowed his eyes upon hearing this, looking at Li Zhan with a smile that was not quite a smile.

You

However, for Li Zhan, what happened last night is no longer important

Having said that, Li Jian glanced at the convoy again and smiled, saying: "Lao Jiu, you are heading to Liangzhou with just these few people? The distance from Bianjing to Liangzhou is a vast three thousand miles, and along the way, bandits roam freely, and barbaric tribes wreak havoc, killing and plundering as if it were an everyday occurrence. Aren't you at all concerned for your safety?"

Looking at the mud splattered all over his royal robe, his expression darkened to the extreme

I have said that I want to go to Liangzhou with you. Liu Qingxue's attitude was resolute

Do not act anymore. If you feel that I have dismissed you and caused you to lose face, you may go to the emperor and request an edict to annul our marriage contract, and he can grant you a suitable husband instead

Looking at her alluring and captivating appearance, Li Zhan felt a slight warmth in his heart

On the road, Zhi Yue wore a face full of indignation

Li Zhan's face remained calm.

You need not say much; since I have made a decision, I will not easily change it" Liu Qingxue glanced coldly at Bianjing behind her and said

Li Zhan's expression was fluctuating between gloom and brightness

In addition to Liu Qingxue herself, she also brought along a retinue of guards and servant maids, as well as various daily necessities

Indeed, upon seeing Liu Qingxue's arrival, Yang Fei was visibly moved and quite touched: "A Xue, despite my son's condition, you have remained steadfast and unwavering, it truly is commendable of you"

"Young Master, this Prince of Jin is truly shameless"

Moreover, the weather over there is exceptionally cold, with frequent sandstorms. How will we manage in the future

Go

Li Jian smiled again at Li Zhan

"I want to rest, and I do not agree!" Liu Qingxue coldly snorted, "In the entire capital, who does not know that I am your wife, Li Zhan? Since you have been exiled to Liangzhou, I shall accompany you, sharing both joys and hardships."

"Impudent! Lao Jiu is my brother; as the elder brother, how can I stoop to his level!"

Do you need me to assign some more personnel for you, brother

Ah, I truly apologize, I almost forgot, it was you who chose to sever ties with the royal family, and now you find yourself in the position of a mere commoner, it is likely that no one is willing to associate with you anymore! Having these people follow you is already quite easy!

This Liu Qingxue is truly elusive and difficult to comprehend

Li Zhan uttered a word, and Peng Bao fiercely lashed the horse with a whip

Li Zhan is truly at a loss to guess what this woman is really thinking

This girl has developed as she should, with fair skin, beauty, and long legs. In the 21st century, she could easily become a big star

Liu Qingxue, clad in flowing white garments, untouched by the mundane world, rides a white horse with grace and elegance, exuding nobility and otherworldliness, akin to a celestial being descending to the mortal realm

Aren't you afraid that the Prince of Jin will hear you and chop off your little head

At this moment, Peng Bao's voice was heard

"You can rest assured a myriad of times; in this grand world of Qi, even if you were to offer it to me, I would not accept it. However, if you wish to claim this world, you might not have the fate to do so," Li Zhan said with a cold smile.

Zhi Yue began her habitual murmuring
