Your Majesty, Please Stop!

Chapter 92: Princess Shengping

Xin Zhuo took out a waterproof oilcloth and spread it out. The two of them sat on the ground, and Little Huang sniffed at Huiruqing's feet, seemingly unfamiliar with the scent. It rolled its eyes and ran out to play.

Xin Zhuo silently looked at Huiruqing, feeling a complex and unethical emotion of deceiving a young girl. Although he himself was also inexperienced, it was not difficult to see that Huiruqing was truly a girl with a simple mind. Otherwise, she wouldn't be interested in his nonsense and gibberish.

The two of them agreed to meet every three days. Originally, Xin Zhuo intended to take advantage of the situation, but gradually, his mood became particularly strange. He always felt that chatting with her was so easy, without having to use much brainpower. A few compliments were enough. Compared to the girls in his past life who knew what you wanted to do as soon as you opened your mouth, it was simply perfect.

After watching the snowflakes for a while, Xin Zhuo suddenly said, "How about becoming a bandit with me? Being a nun has no future."

"..." Huiruqing glanced at him and found that he was serious. She couldn't help but laugh and said, "Is being a bandit really promising? I... can't be a bandit!"

"What's wrong with being a bandit?" Xin Zhuo counted on his fingers. "No burdens, no pressure, go wherever you want?"

"If I become a bandit, I'm afraid my family will chase after you everywhere," Huiruqing covered her mouth and chuckled, afraid of hurting Xin Zhuo's self-esteem. She continued, "Do you really want to be a bandit for the rest of your life?"

Xin Zhuo fell into contemplation. He had thought about this question, but hadn't figured it out.

Suddenly, Huiruqing said again, "The Tao Te Ching and The Art of War are truly profound. You, this little thief, are full of wisdom and strategy. It's really unexpected. Even if you join the military or become an official in the court, it's also possible."

Xin Zhuo smiled and said, "That's not possible. My resume is here, and in terms of political review... Anyway, I don't have that confidence. I still think being a bandit is easier."

Then he suddenly realized, "Huh? How did you know?"

Huiruqing playfully blinked her eyes and said, "I said I would protect you, so of course I know everything about you."

Xin Zhuo neither confirmed nor denied it. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Actually, it doesn't matter."

"In a few days, the Autumn Palace Pavilion should be interesting."

Huiruqing lifted her straight legs and shook off the snowflakes on her body. "The wordless stele in the Autumn Palace Pavilion has attracted many people to observe and gain insights. There are many experts."

After pondering for a moment, Xin Zhuo wondered, "A wordless monument? Could it be that the purpose of the Autumn Palace Pavilion is this? To let me gain insight into the wordless monument and take a gamble? He smiled and said, "Well, I can take a look."

Hui Ruqing smiled cunningly, "I will also go at that time. Xin Master, remember to treat me well!"

"Of course! I have a separate room and bed over there. We can sleep together."

"Hey! You shameless rascal, who said I would sleep with you?"

Hui Ruqing blushed, seemingly thinking of something. "By the way, do you know that the battle in Fufeng Mansion has already ended?"

"When did it happen? Who won?"

Xin Zhuo's heart stirred. During this period of time, he had been preoccupied with how to pass on his teachings and exchange spiritual knowledge. He hadn't paid much attention to the battle in Fufeng Mansion. Even Murong Xiu, that guy, was focused on learning how to be a qualified bandit. The communication with the messenger falcon had been cut off.

Hui Ruqing said, "It happened three days ago. The Great Zhou Army won, but there were heavy casualties among the practitioners and civilians in the city. The leader of the rebels, Zhang Ada, and others have been taken to the capital. Dongyi Kingdom has withdrawn its troops."

Xin Zhuo nodded and considered whether it would have any impact on Fulong Fort.

"Furthermore..." Hui Ruqing frowned, "It seems that you're in trouble."

"What trouble?" Xin Zhuo was surprised. According to reason, after the initial halt of the battle in Fufeng Mansion, they shouldn't come to suppress the bandits so quickly. Not to mention the moral coercion he was subjected to, he was now a member of the Autumn Palace Pavilion.

Hui Ruqing gave him a disdainful look. "According to reliable information, there is good news and bad news. The good news is that someone wants to offer you amnesty and has promised you a marriage, as a son-in-law."

Pausing here, she curiously looked at Xin Zhuo's expression.

Xin Zhuo was even more surprised. "Is there such a good thing? I'm just a mere bandit, getting married..."

"Don't underestimate yourself. You have threatened over a thousand constables, played with the captured four top experts of the Four Great Families, infiltrated Fufeng Mansion at night, faced a hundred thousand people, and surpassed the cultivation of the bitter sword Murong Yi. You have also entered the Autumn Palace Pavilion. Although you are a bandit, you still have a future. The people in the mansion are not fools. They will naturally weigh the pros and cons."

Hui Ruqing recounted these things as if they were treasures. However, her face inexplicably became a little uneasy, and her tone became colder. "Are you happy to have a girl delivered to your doorstep?"

"Not really! You are the only one in my heart."

Xin Zhuo didn't forget to show off his thick-skinned face. He automatically put this matter aside and asked seriously, "What about the second matter?"

Hui Ruqing's face once again showed a beautiful smile, and her eyes were filled with tenderness. "The second matter is that the Chief Constable of Fufeng Mansion, Xue Huaiwei, who comes from the Divine Spear Villa, has returned. It is said that he has reached the sixth rank, breaking through two realms in a row from the seventh rank. There are rumors in the mansion that on New Year's Eve, he will personally climb the mountain and have a life-and-death battle with you!"

After speaking, Xin Zhuo looked at Xin Zhuo's expression and whispered, "Do you need your sister's help? I can kill him with one palm strike!"

Xin Zhuo almost said "okay," but he felt that this kind of desperate act was too boring. He shook his head and said, "It's still early, we'll talk about it later."

Just then, Huang Da Gui's loud voice suddenly came from a distance, "Boss? Boss? Something happened!"

Finally, Talent was put to use, and his voice echoed through the surroundings, startling a flock of birds.

"What a loud voice!" Hui Ruqing praised.

"This guy has always had a loud voice!"

Xin Zhuo teasingly scratched Hui Ruqing's palm, then opened his arms and held her in his embrace. Her delicate body trembled slightly, and the fragrance of her slender and fair neck reached his nose.

Suddenly, he became flustered, his heart pounding.

Hui Ruqing's body trembled even more, her face blushing to her neck. She suddenly reached out and pinched Xin Zhuo's ear, breathing so heavily that it sprayed onto Xin Zhuo's face. "You... you..."

"You should go back earlier." Xin Zhuo laughed, released his embrace, and turned to leave.

Xin Zhuo and Xiao Huang had already disappeared into the snowy night.

Hui Ruqing blushed and stayed stunned for a while before chuckling to herself. She got up and walked towards the Water Moon Temple.

The ancient tree in front of her trembled slightly, and a sharp, low voice came from behind the tree, "This old servant has only been gone for a few days, and Your Highness has encountered this little mountain bandit? This can't be!"

Hui Ruqing looked towards the big tree and said coldly, "What can't be?"

The sharp voice said, "He has already had intimate contact with Your Highness, which is a great crime punishable by extermination of nine generations!"

"Does he have nine generations?"

"This old servant will destroy his bandit stronghold later!"

"Do you dare?"

"... "There was silence behind the tree for a while, "Your Highness should take care of yourself. The difference in status between Your Highness and this person is like heaven and earth. He is just a small mountain bandit who can be crushed at any time.

In the past few days, this old servant has investigated his identity. Not only is the Autumn Palace uncertain about his intentions, he may be killed at any time!

Even the families in Fufeng Mansion, who have lost face, have hidden intentions. If he is unwilling to become a son-in-law and a thug, it will be difficult for him to escape death!

More importantly, his grandfather, Xin Aotian, caused trouble everywhere before he died. Enemies are spread throughout the various mansions, mountain villas, and sects. Three years ago, he even stole the secret books of Shaolin and Wudang.

Once someone learns that Xin Aotian has a grandson, how can they let him live? Enemies are everywhere, how can he handle it?"

Hui Ruqing's tone was icy, "So what?"

"It doesn't matter!"

The voice behind the tree said, "This old servant just wants to remind Your Highness that you must not have any more contact with this little bandit. If you fall into it, no one can save him.

There have been rumors coming from the capital, including Shen Yin, Hong Hua, Tai Ping, and Celestial Secrets, as well as various fiefdoms and towns, all expressing their desire to marry Your Highness..."

Hui Ruqing fell silent for a while and sighed, "Xin Zhuo's talent is outstanding, he has strategic vision, and his future is limitless..."

The voice behind the tree sneered, "So what? Even if he understands a few scriptures, his talent is good. Do we have to wait for him to become a Great Master in the future? Can Your Highness wait? There are countless talented people in the world, but many of them die young. How many people have the last laugh?"

"You bastard, are you trying to lecture me?"

Hui Ruqing's voice became colder, and a faint green ripple appeared around her.

"This old servant dares not!"

"As long as I am here in Fulong Mountain, who dares to harm Xin Zhuo even a bit, I will exterminate their nine generations. Remember, this is the will of Princess Ji Yueluo of the Great Zhou Dynasty!"

Hui Ruqing coldly threw down these words and walked several zhang away.

...

Xin Zhuo rushed back to the village, and Cui Ying'er, Murong Xiu, and a group of people surrounded him, handing him a letter.

To be precise, it was a challenge letter!

The white paper was clearly written with black characters: "Xin Zhuo, you have gone too far in bullying others. The entire Fulong Village is full of pigs, dogs, and trash. You are cunning and treacherous, a waste and a scum. Tomorrow afternoon, our two villages will have a decisive battle!

Jiang Hezhu of Menghu Village."
