With his hands behind his back, he ate a melon, and the country's fortune soared.

Chapter 208 Conflict

"Ha ha ha ha,"

"what……"

Yu Shang's smile froze when he saw the little girl sitting at the top concentrating on eating snacks.

Dahua devoured the chestnut cake on the plate in one gulp. This was the recipe Li Huan sent her the day before. It tasted so good with milk added to it.

After eating three pieces in a row, I realized that Yu Shang had lost his voice.

When he looked up, he saw Yu Shang, who was tied up like a dumpling, staring at him with resentment.

Dahua tilted his head and smiled, then reached out to scratch his ears. "What did you just say? Is the war going to start in Chu?"

"Ha," Dahua stood up, walked in front of Yu Shang and looked down at him, "Let the war start, what we want is the entire Chu State."

Dahua spread her hands and had a arrogant and evil smile on her face.

Seeing her arrogant look, Yu Shang gritted his teeth and asked, "My princess, aren't you afraid of a counterattack from the State of Chu?"

"afraid?"

Dahua crossed her arms and said, "This princess has captured six cities in the northern part of Chu these days. Are you afraid?"

"Yu Shang," she raised her foot and stepped on Yu Shang's shoulder, put her elbows on her knees and bent over, looking at him with cold eyes, "Are you mistaken?"

"We in Great Xia have never needed to please you, the Chu State. If you don't obey, we will beat you until you obey."

"These days, this princess has dug wells for you, found water sources, and distributed relief food. If your people are ungrateful, then die."

"If you ask me, Daxia and your Chu State have a grudge against each other."

Yu Shang was tied up tightly at this time. He raised his head with difficulty to look at the little girl in front of him who was about twelve or thirteen years old.

Rumor has it that this little girl rode a black unicorn as her mount and swept through several major cities in the Chu State.

He didn't believe it at all. People thought that this was just a plan by the Emperor of Daxia to enhance the princess's reputation and prepare for a future marriage.

Which girl of twelve or thirteen years old can lead troops to fight?

Looking at Dahua at this time, he was even more disdainful of the girl's slender figure and sharp eyes.

"Princess," Yu Shang sneered, "You, ah——"

A heart-wrenching scream came from Yu Shang's throat. He was in so much pain that his whole body twisted and he felt like he was living a life worse than death.

"Ha," Dahua crushed Yu Shang's left shoulder with one foot, "Also, who did you say I was going to marry?"

"Yu Shang," she gritted her teeth, "you are looking for death."

As he said this, he raised his foot again and this time crushed his right shoulder, and Yu Shang had already fainted.

"Come here," Dahua looked at Yu Shang who looked like a dead dog and ordered coldly, "Lock Yu Shang up and don't let him die."

"Yes."

The secret guard took the order and dragged Yu Shang away.

At this time, someone came to report, "Princess, Miss Xiao Qi is digging a well in Wutong Village and is being besieged by villagers."

"call out."

Dahua blew the whistle and Sanya immediately ran over.

She strode out of the main hall and climbed onto Sanya's back, "Lead the way."

"Yes."

Wutong Village should be not far from the city where she is.

While rushing to Wutong Village, Dahua learned about what happened today.

Xiao Qi has been very busy these days, but she was amazed by the map sent by her sixth sister, and couldn't help her curiosity so she followed them to see how the well was being dug.

Everything was going smoothly, but the process of digging the well was so boring that Xiao Qi felt a little regretful.

After finally getting water out of the well, she wanted to leave Wutong Village but was stopped by the villagers. The villagers questioned why the Xia people wanted to sacrifice livestock.

Xiao Qi didn't understand why and tried to explain to the villagers, but the villagers seemed to have deep resentment towards the Xia people.

After some instigation by some people with ulterior motives, Xiao Qi and his group were stuck in the village and unable to leave.

"Princess, because Miss Xiao is protected by secret guards, the villagers dare not take action."

"But they just stopped Miss Xiao and the others from coming back."

"Humph," Dahua snorted, "They are spoiled."

She took a long breath and said, "I'll go first, you guys hurry up."

As he said this, he patted San Ya's head.

The black unicorn immediately increased its speed and soon left the secret guards far behind.

The secret guards...

Ever since I followed the princess, I have been either chasing her or on my way to chase her. Fortunately, the princess is extremely powerful.

Otherwise, they will all be punished.

Dahua took the lead and soon arrived at the dilapidated Wutong Village.

Because this place is close to the city, Dahua also resettled the refugees affected by the drought here.

A group of people were seen gathered together from afar, and Xiao Qi and others were surrounded and questioned by the villagers.

Dahua speeds up.

"My fellow countrymen, you must have misunderstood. I, Daxia, have never thought of using livestock for sacrifice."

Xiao Qi was surrounded by angry people, but there was no panic on his face.

Although she couldn't tell how many times she had explained it, she remained calm and tried her best to control her temper.

"I don't know where the rumor about animal sacrifice came from, but the drought is severe now, and the animals are not worth sacrificing."

"Xia Gou, get out of Chu," a man's voice suddenly came from the villagers, interrupting Xiao Qi's words, "Xia Gou's words cannot be trusted."

"Not trustworthy?"

A strange voice came from behind the crowd. Dahua sat on Sanya's back and looked coldly at the person who had just spoken.

"If I, Daxia, cannot be trusted, why would I dig a well in your village?"

"If I am a dog, then what are you who have eaten my relief food for half a month?"

When the villagers saw the girl riding on the black unicorn's back, they unconsciously made way for her, and many of them went weak in the knees.

Seeing the villagers' cowardly look, some people looked down on them and continued to instigate them, "Oh, so what?"

"You Xia dogs just want to invade our Chu territory and make all the people of Chu slaves of a conquered country."

"Who knows what your evil ambitions are? Who knows, you might slaughter us in the future."

"That's it, Summer Dog,"

laugh.

laugh.

The young girl raised her spear lightly, and the heads of the two men who had just been shouting fell to the ground in an instant.

Dahua glanced coldly at the frightened villagers and said, "What these two said is indeed correct. What Daxia wants is the entire Chu State."

"If you can accept, I will dig wells for you and distribute relief food to help you get through the drought."

"If you can't accept it, haha," Dahua sneered, "just go die."

"The reason why I, Daxia, did not kill you is not because you are so rich and valuable."

"It's because my mother is pregnant, and I am here to do good deeds for her. Besides," Dahua looked down at the villagers, "it is the principle of Daxia not to kill innocent people when two countries are at war."

The girl sat on the back of the black unicorn, her voice was sonorous and clear, and her eyes were sharp and open.

At this time, she was wearing a short dress, the fabric of which was not gorgeous.

But inexplicably, the villagers of Wutong Village felt that this girl had an indescribable divinity.

When people stand in front of her, their knees become weak and their hearts become uneasy.

Dahua glanced at the villagers whose expressions changed again, raised her eyebrows and gave Xiao Qi a look.

Xiao Qi nodded and immediately led his men to follow. The villagers looked at the black unicorn that was getting farther and farther away.

"The Qilin is a mythical beast," one villager said hesitantly, "How could it be willing to become a girl's mount?"

"It seems that," the old man's voice was slightly choked, "the Xia people don't use livestock for sacrifice?"

"If that's the case,"

"Naive," someone scolded, "It's better to trust Xia Gou than to trust him."

"Who are you?"

A careful woman looked at the man who was scolding her and asked, "Are you a villager? Or a refugee? I have never seen you in the village before."
