Chapter 9: Returns
The little princess held Chen Nan's deed of sale in her hand and frowned, "It's ugly as hell, what kind of crappy writing, it's not as good as the spider crawling on it. You this unlearned guy, even didn't even learn to write, really alas, how could our Chu country have someone like you, really a disgrace to the country, the scum of the nation."
Halo Chennan dared to be angry and sat on the ground with an expressionless face.
"You this stinking thief is not very powerful, in the beginning dared to hit my" said here the little princess flushed with shame and indignation. She turned around and ran into the woods, and in a short while ran back holding a bowl-thick dead wood, and drank to Chen Nan: "Get down".
Looking at the long and thick withered wood that was disproportionate to the little princess's delicate body, Chen Nan was almost fainting from fear.
"Your Highness, you"
The little princess brutally pressed Chen Nan to the ground, holding the thick and long withered wood against his buttocks three times.
"Ah" Cinnan couldn't help but let out a scream, "Your Highness, if you break me, how will you bring me out of the mountain?"
When the little princess heard this, she also thought it was reasonable, she couldn't possibly carry this guy out by barring him on her shoulder, she hit him two more times with force, and just wanted to throw the dead wood down, at this time, Tatsunami screamed miserably once again due to the pain, "Little devil, I only gently slapped you twice, you are not so much"
Hearing this from Chen Nan, the little princess was going crazy, and said with hatred: "You damn guy still dare to mention it, I'll hit and hit and hit and hit"
After Chen Nan screamed for a while, the little princess threw the thick dead wood aside.
"Hmph, let's call it even for the time being, I'll properly clean up you stinking thief when I have the chance."
Suddenly the little princess smelled the aroma of the roasted snow chicken and couldn't help but sigh, "It smells so good." Saying that, she walked towards the fire, she pulled up the wooden stick inserted with the barbecued snow chicken from the ground, looking at the golden color of the snow chicken, she gently took a bite.
After the smooth and aromatic snow chicken meat entered her mouth, she couldn't help but exclaim, "The meat is slim, the flavor is mellow, and the fat is not greasy, it's really delicious."
Probably because she had been hungry for a long time, the little princess no longer cared about the image of a princess and stuck the wooden stick on the ground again, pulling off a chicken leg with one hand and a chicken wing with the other hand, chewing on it without any ladylike manners.
Chen Nan grimaced and climbed up from the ground, looking at the little princess's eating face, he swallowed a mouthful of water and moved forward.
"Why don't you stay away from me, seeing you stinking thief makes me angry." The little princess screamed at Cinnan in dissatisfaction.
"I'm just taking that snow chicken of mine." His hand reached towards the other snow chicken.
"Don't touch that snow chicken."
"Why?"
"You bad guy did so many bad things to me earlier like that, humph, you'll be punished with a three-day fast."
"If that happens, I won't have the energy to walk, and in this vast mountain, won't I be a drag on Your Highness."
The little princess's eyes rolled, revealing a teasing smile, "Here, this is for you, and this."
The chicken head and the chicken butt were handed over to Cinnan's eyes by a pair of small snow-white hands stained with grease, looking at the little princess's hateful smile, Cinnan really wanted to recklessly rush up to pinch her little face and pinch it hard.
"Eat or don't eat if you don't eat it, I'll throw it away immediately, but you'll be spared this meal." The little princess laughed badly.
"I eat," Chen Nan chewed hard on the chicken head and phoenix tail, as if he was ruthlessly tearing into the little princess.
"Stinky thief eat slowly, no one is robbing with you, here, here is more." The little princess smiled and tore off the head and phoenix tail of another snow chicken and handed it over.
"Oooh, it smells so good, the flavor is really great, scum you're so unseemly, it's just delicious, you don't have to chew it so hard, right?" The little princess ate while saying exasperating words.
Chen Nan whispered, "Devil, still a princess of a country, look at your face, left hand chicken leg, right hand chicken wing, little face red, mouth flowing with oil, really."
"What are you muttering, you stinking thief?"
"Oh, nothing." Chen Nan did not want to get entangled with her and closed his mouth without further words.
In the end, the little princess handed the remaining snow chickens to Chen Nan, saying, "This princess will be merciful, remember to repay me properly and carry out my every order seriously."
Chen Nan depressed, but also can only vent in the heart of the cloth: Damn obviously I hit the snow chicken, God are you kidding me why let me fall in the hands of this little devil again "!
The little princess ran to the river and washed her hands, and then ran back to rub on Chen Nan's body.
"Wow, stinky thief you are really sloppy, why are your clothes so dirty, disgusting." After saying that she ran to the river to wash her hands again.
Tatsunami cried and laughed.
"Stinky thief turn around." The little princess ordered savagely, and then took off her shoes and socks to reveal her two bare jade-like little feet and started tripping and playing in the water by the river. Finally tired of playing, she sat down on the bank, but just as she sat down, she shrieked again, "Ow, that hurts."
She quickly stood up from the bank, her two small hands constantly rubbing her buttocks. She had been thrown to the ground twice by Chen Nan, and at that time, her entire body's power had been sealed, so her buttocks had been thrown solidly both times when they had come into close contact with the ground, and it was still abnormally painful to this day. The little princess was both embarrassed and annoyed, she looked at Chen Nan viciously, her eyes almost spitting fire.
"You damned guy is still eating, what an appetite"
When the little princess came towards him fiercely, Cinnan was quickly putting the last bite of chicken into his mouth. The Little Princess gasped in order to vent her anger and went up and pressed Tatsunami to the ground without saying a word.
Chen Nan's ass, which had just been ravaged by Ooki, immediately came into zero contact with the ground, and a chilling scream resounded within the woods.
"You scum who dared to treat me like that earlier, you deserve it."
Angels and demons in common, beauty and evil coexist, the little princess has the appearance of an angel, but has the essence of a demon. Anyone who saw such a flowery girl would never think that she would be a headache-inducing little devil.
After Chen Nan once again fell into the hands of the little devil, he suffered a lot along the way, and the little princess took crazy revenge on him for what he had done before.
Two days later, the Little Princess and Chen Nan finally walked out of the mountain.
When they entered the mountain, the Little Princess and her group had some clothes with them, but after the battle with the giant snake and the fight in the forest, almost all of their belongings were lost. When they came out, the two of them were dressed in rags, and the clothes on their bodies had all been scratched by the thorns in the mountain, and they did not have any clothes to change into at this time.
"What are the stinking thieves looking at turn your head away."
The little princess was not clothed, revealing a large area of snow white skin on her body, if Cinnan who was walking in front accidentally tilted his head or sidestepped his body he would incur a reprimand.
Looking at the unknown town in the distance, the two of them as if they were in a different world, finally left the uninhabited mountains and entered the human settlement. Into the town looked at the pedestrians coming and going, the two can not help but surge a sense of affinity, think everyone is which is so dear, of course, between the two of them is absolutely not feel each other dear.
Pedestrians on the street looked strangely at this pair of ragged young people, Chen Nan's appearance was mediocre, only attracted the attention of a few people, but the little princess was born with beauty, even if her clothes were torn and tattered, it was still difficult to hide her stunning face, attracting the attention of the vast majority of people.
Being watched by the crowd like this, the two were extremely uncomfortable and hurriedly fled into an inn. The little princess took a bead flower from her head and gave it to the innkeeper to let him go to the pawn store to exchange for money, and then instructed him to buy back some suitable clothes.
The Royal Princess's pearl flower is certainly not an ordinary treasure, no matter the color or size of the pearl is the best of the best. Looking at the greedy gaze in the innkeeper's eyes, Chen Nan knew that this treacherous merchant was definitely going to profiteer from it, but since the item was the Imp's, there was no need for him to remind.
As Chen Nan expected, the valuable bead flowers were pawned by the innkeeper at a super low price, but the clothes bought back were frighteningly expensive, but the clothes were generally quite bright and decent, giving the two ragged young men a new look.
The little princess's naturally noble temperament naturally flowed out, showing the royal majesty between her hands and feet. However, whenever she faced Cinnabar, the aura of the Royal Heavenly Maiden would vanish. In the eyes of outsiders, she was a mischievous little fairy, while in the eyes of Cinnan, she was a little devil with teeth and claws.
After the sumptuous dinner was served, the two of them devoured it, seemingly forgetting each other's identities, and just focusing on eliminating the food in front of them. Although there were countless wild game in the mountains, but after all, without the seasoning supplement, no matter how fresh the wild game was, it was not as good as the exquisite cooking in front of them.
After enjoying the delicacies, the little princess glared fiercely at Chen Nan, wanting to attack and punish him, but the endless tiredness came to her, the thrilling experience in the mountains had made her exhausted, so she had to give up. In the end, she ordered more than twenty major acupuncture points on Cinnan's body in a row before she was relieved and threw him into another room.
The little princess was sleepy and tired, and after lying down on the bed, she fell asleep sweetly, a contented smile hanging on her flushed little face. The soft moonlight sprinkled in the room, causing her body to emit a holy aura, she was as serene and adorable as a little angel that had fallen from the mortal world.
Chen Nan was lying straight on the bed, his body was stiff and incomparable, he kept using his family's Xuan Gong to impact the two dozen or so large closed acupoints, but the acupoints were only loosened by the slightest bit. According to this speed, even by the dawn of the next day he would still find it difficult to unlock the acupoints on his own, his family's Xuan Gong was not subtle, it was just that there were too many sealed acupoints on his body, and in the end he had to give up.
The watery moonlight shone into the room, Chen Nan thought about many, many things, ten thousand years ago he had a distinguished family and honorable status, ten thousand years later he had somehow become someone else's prisoner. The corners of his mouth spread a bitter smile, once upon a time he was prominent, but life was pale, he thought: nowadays maybe it will be very different, but that little princess is also really too horrible point!
While thinking of the little princess, he felt that his head was cold and uncomfortable, only then did he realize the abnormality of his sleeping position, Chen Nan shouted in his heart: ''This damned little devil, actually actually let my head rest on the iron railings at the head of the bed, lol'' He really had an impulse to curse the street.
The early morning hustle and bustle of the town was incomparable, a large number of troops were coming here, the residents of the town were on edge, suspecting that a war was about to start. After all, the continent has been quiet for many years, if there is no war, such a frontier town will never have an army come.
Dust and smoke rolled, three hundred iron horsemen rushed into the town first, followed by two thousand infantrymen, people shouted and horses neighing, the residents of the town took cover. The army blocked all the roads in the town, and after an officer asked the townspeople about the pawnshop in the town, the three hundred cavalrymen rushed over like tigers and wolves and surrounded the pawnshop.
The pawnshop's shopkeeper and two fellows ran out in a panic, and after seeing the hundreds of iron horsemen's cold iron armor and cold swords, the three of them fell to their knees as if they were sifting chaff.
A general and a dozen or so cavalrymen flew off their horses and walked towards the kneeling people.
The general asked loudly: "Who is the shopkeeper here?
The pawnshop keeper kowtowed in a panic and said, "I'm a small person, I'm a small person."
The general said, "No need to be afraid, we have no ill will, stand up and answer back."
"Yes, yes, yes."
The shopkeeper and two fellows stood up in a panic.
"Let me ask you, did someone come here yesterday and pawned a pearl flower?
"Yes, yes, someone did come to pawn a superb pearl flower, but I have already sent someone to hand it over to the main store."
"Well, who pawned it?"
"It was pawned by the owner of the Long Xing Inn in our town, but it looks like he was entrusted to pawn it on behalf of someone else."
The general's eyes lit up and he said, "Oh, how do you know that?"
"Because after he asked me to make a price, he asked me to issue a fake receipt for a low price."
"Good, you take me to the Long Xing Inn right away."
Three hundred iron horsemen trooped to Long Xing Inn, the infantry also flocked there together, Long Xing Inn was surrounded inside and outside. The owner of the inn was frightened, and ran out in a panic, and said: "What is the dispatch of the military general?"
The general sitting on the horse, his face was sober, and he said coldly: "Yesterday you pawned an excellent pearl flower".
"Yes, yes, I did pawned a pearl flower for someone yesterday."
"For whom?"
"A couple of young men."
"What did they look like?"
"They were a young man and woman, the man was about twenty years old, with an ordinary appearance, and the little girl was about sixteen or seventeen years old, and she was gorgeous."
The general's eyes lit up violently, took a scroll from his men's hands, unfolded it, and said, "Is that girl this one?"
"Yes, this is the girl."
The general said in an urgent voice, "Where are they and can they leave?"
Seeing the general's eagerness, the innkeeper was startled and said in a trembling voice, "They have not left, they are resting in the backyard, but they may not have gotten up yet".
Upon hearing this, the general immediately flew off his horse, striding towards the inn, followed closely behind him by dozens of soldiers, the innkeeper trembling with fear and trepidation as he followed behind this group of people.
At the beginning, there were tenants in the inn who probed and watched from time to time, but once they saw such a group of soldiers and generals clad in heavy armor, they immediately closed the doors and windows tightly in fear and no longer dared to watch.
The innkeeper pointed with his hand and said, "The man lives in that room, and the girl lives in the room next to him."
After hearing this, that general walked straight towards the girl's room, stopping and standing three meters away in front of the door before kneeling down on both knees and saying loudly, "Zhao Sheng, the lord of Feng Ning City, respectfully welcomes Her Highness Princess Yu back to the court."
Those soldiers behind Zhao Sheng also all fell to their knees.
The owner of the Longxing Inn was dumbfounded at that moment and immediately sat down on the ground in fear, he never expected that beautiful girl to be the princess of the dynasty, he panicked and knelt down.
The wind and food for days had made the little princess exhausted, it was not easy for her to sleep on the soft bed, she had not gotten up until now and was sleeping soundly. Until Zhao Sheng shouted three times outside the door, she opened her eyes in a daze, only then did she hear people shouting and horses neighing on the street, by the time she heard Zhao Sheng's voice Zhao Sheng had already kowtowed and shouted for the fourth time.
The little princess put on her clothes, huffed and puffed and opened the door of the room and said loudly: "I know, humph, really noisy."
Looking at the sleepy little princess face full of unhappy color, Zhao Sheng do not need to think also know disturbed woke up this heavenly proud girl's beautiful dream, then scared cold sweat down.
"I, Zhao Sheng, have come by order of Her Highness the Moon Princess to welcome Your Highness back to the court."
"Sister, my sister is also here."
Zhao Sheng didn't dare to look up, still kneeling, "Yes, Her Highness Princess Yue is outside the town."
"Ah, really," the little princess quickly closed the door of her room like a child who has done something wrong, and said to herself, "Bad, bad, father and mother must be in a hurry, otherwise they wouldn't have sent her sister to look for me in person."
Zhao Sheng and the others didn't dare to say anything else and quietly waited outside the door.
After a while, the little princess slowly opened the door of the room, at this time, she had already restored the majesty of the royal princess, she said in a flat tone: "All of you, please get up."
After everyone thanked her and stood up, the little princess added: "You guys go out first, gather all the men and horses and get ready to go, I'll go back to the house to get ready."
Looking at the crowd left the courtyard, the little princess became lively again, a smoke ran into Chen Nan's room, in a flurry of slap on his body to unlock his acupoints, and then grabbed him by the ear and said: "Scum, lazy pigs get up."
"Ah" Chen Nan a miserable scream, all of a sudden jumped up from the bed, and kept rubbing his reddened left ear with his hand.
"Heh."
Looking at the little princess's hateful smile, Chen Nan was depressed beyond measure, having pillowed on the iron bars all night, he had just entered dreamland and was again disturbed awake by the little princess.
After washing up, under the attentive and terrified hospitality of the innkeeper, the two of them ate more or less.
Coming outside the inn Cinnan was startled, although he had heard the sounds outside and knew that an army had come to pick up the little princess and return her to the palace, but how could he not have expected such a large array. Both sides of the street were filled with soldiers, bright armor extending to the end of the road, while the center of the road was empty without anyone, the entire road had been put on alert, waiting for the little princess to get up and drive.
Zhao Sheng had prepared a small sedan chair for the little princess, but the little princess waved her jade hand and said, "No, I want to ride a horse."
Chen Nan secretly said: How could such a "horrible" little devil sit peacefully in a sedan chair?
Zhao Sheng personally brought over a war horse for the Little Princess, and then a soldier also brought over a horse for Chen Nan.
The Little Princess flew onto the horse and took the lead in raising the dust, with Chen Nan and Feng Ning City Lord Zhao Sheng following closely, followed by three hundred iron cavalry, and lastly the infantry, as this group of people left the town in great numbers.
The residents of the town finally breathed a long sigh of relief, but the owner of the Longxing Inn was screaming in agony, Zhao Sheng ruthlessly fined him a large sum of money on his way out, asking him to hand it over to the City Lord's Mansion within three days to punish him for his greed.
Beyond the town was a wilderness, where two hundred iron horsemen were defending Princess Chu Yue's safety, before and after the Little Princess and the others came near, the two hundred horsemen clasped their hands and saluted the Little Princess.
In the distance a slender figure alone quietly standing in the morning sunshine, a white dress is better than snow, in the sunrise under the irradiation, the whole person as if dyed a layer of light golden luster, as if the nine heavens descended from the dust of the fairy, in the fluttering of the sleeves, as if at any time will ride the wind and go.
The little princess exclaimed, "Sister." And then she threw off the crowd and ran forward quickly, coming to Chu Yue's body and jumping into her arms at once.
The little princess wrapped her arms around Chu Yue's waist and delicately said, "Sister, I missed you to death."
Chu Yue dotingly patted her head and said: ''You ah, really naughty, even sneaking out of the palace for so long, father and mother are almost worried to death.''
The little princess nervously said: "Is mother's health better"
"Why do you ask? Mother's health has always been very good," she said.
"Hmph, how dare this stinking old man lie to me." The little princess shouted in dissatisfaction.
"Hehe, who is it that has tricked our little naughty girl." Chu Yue asked with a smile.
The little princess exasperatedly said, ''Other than that stinky old man, my master, who else would dare to trick me. Humph, the stinky old man tricked me back and ran off by himself to see the Qilin, he really pissed me off, after I come back I will definitely pull out his whiskers.''
Chu Yue laughed, "You must not be rude to senior Zhuge, he is someone our father and mother both respect."
"Well, then let's pull out a few more of his whiskers, hey, by the way, sister, how did you find me."
"You forgot, yesterday you pawned a bead flower, which was taken as a treasure by the pawnshop owner, who sent someone to the main store in Fengning City overnight. The owner of the general store saw the royal mark on the flower and was shocked. He rushed to report to Zhao Sheng, the lord of Fengning City. Zhao Sheng is under my command these days, so I quickly learned of this matter and followed the trail to find you, this little naughty boy.''
Chu Yue cupped the little princess's small face and softly said: ''You have suffered a lot outside, right, let sister take a closer look. Well, the skin is a little bit tanned and thinner than before. Next time don't ever run around, hear me."
"Well, sister, next time I will never run around again, my my guards are" said here, the little princess choked a little.
"Good girl, don't be sad."
"Hate, I'm already sixteen, still treating me like a child." The little princess turned around and laughed again.
"Sister, let me show you something good." Saying that, the little princess took out a jade box from her bosom and carefully opened it, immediately a fragrant fragrance wafted out and a crystal clear fiery red lotus petal appeared in the jade box.
"Ah, this is," Chu Yue was shocked.
The little princess proudly said: ''This is the legendary Fiery Immortal Lotus, it was specially prepared by me for father's 60th birthday.''
Chu Yue excitedly held the jade box and said: ''Worthy of being called the Fiery Immortal Lotus, just by smelling it like this, it already refreshes one's spirit and makes one's body light and comfortable.''
The crystalline lotus petals appeared even more brilliant by the light of the rising sun, and the refreshing aroma spread far away from Chen Nan and the others, and the soldiers and officers were astonished.
"ah, lotus petals on how seems to have been a small bite ah" Chu Yue laughed, pinch the little princess's nose, said: "must be your little greedy cat can not help it, he first bit a bite, right heh.
"Sister," the little princess twisted her body while pouting, "Don't pinch my nose, or else it won't be as pretty as sister's."
"This little mouth of yours, it's as sweet as honey."
The little princess looked at the Flaming Immortal Lotus and exasperatedly said, "Originally, it was a complete petal of the Immortal Lotus, it's all because of that scum Chen Nan, that despicable, shameless, dirty, nasty stinking thief used a trick to catch me and nailed my acupoints, so in order to break open my acupoints and escape, I had no choice but to eat a small mouthful of the Immortal Lotus."
"What," Chu Yue exclaimed.
"It's that stinking thief, I've already caught him." The little princess pointed her finger at Tatsunami in the distance.
"Scum Cinnan come here."
Hearing the Little Princess call out to him, Cinnan had a headache and reluctantly walked over.
After walking to Chu Yue and the Little Princess's nearness, Cinnan was lost in thought for a while, in the distance he could only vaguely see Chu Yue's absolute splendor, now that he was near, that beautiful and incomparable countenance made him feel suffocated for a while.
Chu Yue was dressed in white, her figure was slender and delicately curved, her shapely and delicate body made it impossible to pick out a single flaw. The jade face did not apply any fat or powder, the phoenix eyes, agar-quartz nose, and cherry lips were perfectly combined together, outlining the beauty's peerless face. Autumn water is the god and jade is the bone, Chu Yue's posture deserves the word "perfect".
