An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 269 The Couple (Part Two)

When she woke up again, it was already in the morning. The prince had already gotten up. Yun Shang

touched the bed next to her and found that it was cold. So the prince must have gotten up for quite a

while.

Yun Shang saw a white dress beside the pillow. The white one seemed to be prepared for her. Yun

Shang stood up and dressed herself. The clothes they prepared for her fitted her perfectly. She still

wore men's clothes.

After putting on her clothes and tying up her hair, Yun Shang walked around the screen and went out.

Seeing that Prince Jing, dressed in black, was reading a book behind the table, Yun Shang felt

nervous. She hid behind the screen and after backing down, she realized that she was dressed. Why

was she so afraid of him?

After checking her clothes, she walked out of again. She coughed and said, "Your Highness."

Without raising his head, Prince Jing nodded slightly. "Well, there's still some food on the table. Just eat

something first."

Yun Shang turned around and saw a bowl of porridge and some pickles on the table. Feeling a little Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

hungry, she didn't care much about anything else. She walked to the table and picked up the bowl to

eat.

While she were eating, the door was pushed open. Yun Shang raised her eyes and saw Qian Yin

standing at the door, craning her neck and forgetting to come in. Seeing Yun Shang sitting at the table,

Qian Yin smiled and ran to her. "Your Highness, you are awake!"

Yun Shang smiled and nodded, "what? Have I been in a coma for a long time? "

Qian Yin nodded repeatedly, "yes, four days. We would still be trapped in the yard if Prince Jing didn't

break the array. "

As she recalled Prince Jing's words that he bathed her and had slept on the same bed with her for

days, Yun Shang flushed again. Then she bowed her head and ate without saying anything to Qian

Yin.

Qian Yin sneaked a glance at Prince Jing who was reading the letter, and said gently, "Your Highness, I

just met a few generals in the camp. They asked me to ask your highness when you could summon

them. In this way, they can report to your highness about the battle recently. Your highness, you have

to deal with a lot of things."

Yun Shang thought of the days that she had been in coma, and it could be said that many things had

happened in the battlefield. In such a situation, every moment of what happened could affect the entire

war situation. She quickly said, "I'll go back after the meal..."

Before Yun Shang could finish her sentence, someone interrupted her in a cold voice, "Refuse all the

generals. Tell the general that Her Highness has just woken up and is still weak. She is not supposed

to work too hard. Let them wait."

"What?" Yun Shang was stunned. "But..."

"What?" Yun Shang shut her mouth immediately upon Prince Jing's words. Yun Shang cleared her

throat and sighed before she became listless. "Just do as Prince Jing said."

With a flicker of surprise in Qian Yin's eyes, she looked back and forth between Yun Shang and Prince

Jing for a long time until Yun Shang made a cough. Then she withdrew her gaze and walked out of the

camp with a "yes".

Yun Shang felt that Prince Jing was a little angry. She had guessed it for a long time, but she didn't

know why.

After the meal, Prince Jing was still reading a book. Yun Shang stayed in the camp, too. She fetched a

book and lay on the couch, reading. About at noon, Yun Shang heard from Qian Yin that Lady Qi came

to visit.

Yun Shang was surprised. Then she realized lady Qi was Qi Lang's wife. She stood up from the couch

and smoothed her clothes. When Lady Qi came in, she walked into the room and looked down at her

toes. She walked a few steps forward and knelt down in the middle. "Your Highnesses. How are you

doing?"

Prince Jing looked at the book in his hand and didn't seem to want to say anything. Yun Shang said

hurriedly, "you don't have to be courteous, lady Qi. Have a seat."

Then lady Qi stood and sat down cautiously. But she still lowered her head, only looking at her hands

on her knees, and whispered, "Your Highness, it's very kind of you to say hello to me. Since your

Highness are not in good health, you'd better return to the General Qi's Mansion. There are many

soldiers in the camp, so it's not convenient for you to sleep well. At night, when footsteps come and go

at night, it will be hard for you to fall asleep. Although it's simple in the mansion, it is better than the

camp. It's also good for your recovery. "

Hearing that, Yun Shang smiled and thought, 'Lady Qi must have been instructed by Qi lang.' Qi Lang

was dissatisfied with her, but because of the presence of Prince Jing, he had to show respect. So he

sent her wife here, for Yun Shang's sake. It was easier for him to take control of her and Prince Jing

when they were in his mansion.

Yun Shang was about to refuse, but Prince Jing stopped her. "Alright. If lady Qi insists, it's not

appropriate for us to refuse."

Lady Qi was surprised. She had already planned to be turned down, and had even thought about how

to persuade Yun Shang if she refused. Unexpectedly, Prince Jing agreed so easily that she had

forgotten how to react.

Yun Shang fell silent. She didn't want to go to the General Qi's Mansion, but since Prince Jing had

given his consent, it was not appropriate for her to turn him down. She smiled, "thank you, Lady Qi."

Lady Qi hurriedly answered, "it's no trouble at all. It's my honor that Prince Jing and your highness can

live in our mansion. I'll go back now and clean up. Your highness and your ladyship can come and live

in at any time."

Yun Shang nodded, "okay."

Lady Qi bowed and left.

After lady Qi left, Yun Shang raised her eyes to look at Prince Jing. He looked indifferent and kept his

eyes on the book in his hand. Frowning, he apparently had an angry look. Yun Shang sighed. She

walked to Prince Jing and whispered, "are you angry with me? But I really don't know how I have

irritated your highness. Even if you give me a death sentence, you should at least give me a reason. "

Prince Jing looked up at Yun Shang and lowered his head after a quick glance. "Your Highness, how

could you be wrong? You had asked for coming here in the KY City without informing me. You were

here to supervise the army in the KY city for you worried about the country and people. What was

wrong with it? The princess wanted Qi Yufeng as her concubine only to make General Qi submissive.

What was wrong with it? The reason why the princess personally investigated the terrain was that she

wanted to win the battle. What was wrong with it? Actually, the princess could have run away when she

met Liu Yinfeng, but she pretended to be caught because she was afraid that Liu Yinfeng might find out

her true identity. What's wrong with it? Since you did nothing wrong, why would I be angry? "

Yun Shang was shocked by a long list of words coming out of Prince Jing's mouth. She couldn't help

but burst into laughter.

Hearing Yun Shang's heartless laughter, Prince Jing glared at her and snorted.

Yun Shang stopped smiling immediately. She walked behind Prince Jing, held his shoulder, and

massaged his shoulder before she said gently, "it's my fault. I don't want to see you suffer so much. On

the one hand, I want to help you deal with Li Jingyan and Xia Houjing; on the other hand, I also

need to worry about the situation at the border. I know his highness is the God of war, so he can protect

me well. However, I don't want to be a burden to you or a coward woman who only seeks your

protection behind you. Prince Jing, you are of unusual status. Perhaps the responsibilities you needs to

take will be even greater. I hope I can slowly grow into a woman comparable to you. "

Prince Jing kept silent for a while. Then he put his hand on Yun Shang's, held her hand, turned around,

looked into her eyes, and sighed. "It's not that I don't allow you to do these things. I just hope that you

can protect yourself well and don't put yourself in danger."

Yun Shang smiled and nodded cautiously. "I know. I won't be so rash in the future."

Noticing that Yun Shang's hands were getting cold, Prince Jing covered her hands in his hands for a

while, stood up and said, "Qi Lang changed the original plan without your permission, which caused a

great loss to the army. But he insisted on blaming several generals who had disobeyed him, which

resulted in his loss. He sent Lady Qi to invite us to the General Qi's Mansion today. I'm afraid that he

might come up with some new trick. Since we doesn't have anything important to do today, we might as

well take a look at it. When we are fighting in the battlefield, the greatest fear is that some people

disobey the orders and go against their wishes. Once all of us cannot work together against the enemy,

it will always be a trouble. We'd better solve it as soon as possible, or there will be accidents in the

future. "

Yun Shang was taken by surprise before she realized that the prince was explaining why he agreed on

Lady Qi's request just now. She nodded with warmth in her heart. "Your Highness is right. We can stay

there for a while. But I just wake up, I don't know what's going on now..."

Prince Jing glanced at her and said, "let's go for a walk in the KY city. I'll talk with you on the way."
