Chapter 854: Finale: Nanqi's Bride Robbery (1)
Chapter 854: Finale: Nanqi's Bride Robbery (1)
Half a month later, news of Tianqi's great victory on the border reached Anzhou.
The giant tiger sped through the busy streets, stirring up strong gusts of wind. Many people were almost blown over by the strong wind because they were too close to it.
When he looked back again, the giant tiger had already gone into the distance.
"The little princess of the Liu family has brought her big pet out to show off again. She's so impressive!"
"Of course. How can one not be grand with such a ferocious tiger as a pet? Besides, she is our little princess of Tianqi and the daughter of Prince Li, the God of War. Isn't it appropriate to be more grand?"
"Hey, have you noticed? Ever since the little princess's big tiger appeared in Anzhou, people from several surrounding cities have heard the news and have rushed to Anzhou to catch a glimpse of the little princess! The 'Tiger Building' on Yong'an Street is packed every day!"
Menghulou was quickly renamed after the giant tiger appeared. The owner of the restaurant could be said to be the first person to seize the business opportunity.
The owner of a nearby wood carving shop echoed, "That's true! Even my stall has seen a lot of business lately, especially the tiger wood carvings, which are the hottest sellers! Life is getting better day by day!"
After hearing this, the owner of the sachet stall next to him also said, "My tiger sachets are also the hottest sellers! My wife and daughter-in-law have been busy making tiger sachets lately, so I thought I'd take advantage of this opportunity to make some extra money!"
"Hahaha, so the little princess is really the lucky star of our Anzhou!"
A girl on the street jumped up excitedly, "Wow! There really is a giant tiger! I'm going to go back and tell my cousins and ask them to come and see it too!"
The people of Anzhou were no longer surprised by the giant tigers that came and went every day. However, many people from other cities were terrified and amazed when they saw the majesty of the giant tiger for the first time.
The people in Anzhou City have been hearing this kind of sound for more than half a month, and their ears are almost callused.
A handsome young man, fanning himself, said proudly, "Come on, come on, everyone, come and contribute to our Anzhou, hahahaha!"
Willow house.
"Grandpa! My father and mother won the battle!"
"I want to go to the border too, to help my uncle fight!"
The next day, the gates of Anzhou City opened, and a giant tiger carrying a little girl, followed by three fast horses, headed east.
"Hey, where is the little princess going?"
"They said they were going to fight in the Jiangdong Army, following in the footsteps of Prince Li and Princess Li!"
"Prince Li and his family are truly the backbone of our Tianqi Kingdom!" Even a five-year-old kid can go to the battlefield to fight!
Behind the crowd, three young men in brocade clothes sat on the second floor of the teahouse. As they watched the figures walking away, their expressions relaxed a little.
"This little devil is finally gone!"
"He came to our territory to scare people for no reason, causing our Ling family's business to plummet. Just thinking about it makes me sick!"
Qin Sui sighed, "My family isn't much better. The last time I went back, my grandfather beat me up and almost kicked me out of the Qin family!"
Feng Zhike clenched his fists and said, "This Liu family has really made a comeback! From now on, the Liu family will probably be the only one left among the four major families!"
A few people were unwilling, but helpless, and could only complain dejectedly.
----------
Jiangdong Army.
Yi'er, who had thought she could show off her skills in the Jiangdong Army, discovered upon arriving that the Yunlai Kingdom army, which had been besieging the Jiangdong Army, had already withdrawn and the army was in a state of calm...
Liu Jingchen was very happy about Yier's arrival, especially when he saw Wuwu, he couldn't stop smiling.
He deliberately took Yi'er and Wuwu around the training ground during the whole army training, attracting the soldiers to look at him frequently.
Everyone had an excited and curious look on their faces. Some people even gathered around and stared at Wuwu for a long time. Finally, Wuwu lost his patience and roared, scaring away all the soldiers.
"I thought we could fight, but in the end, nothing happened..."
Liu Jingchen laughed heartily and consoled him, "Don't worry, when you grow up, you will definitely have your chance to fight!"
Feeling lost, Yi'er looked around again, "Uncle, didn't mother say that Brother Nanqi was here? Why don't I see him?"
She hadn't seen Nanqi for a long time and wanted to play with him.
"General Nan..." Liu Jingchen laughed heartily, "He should be going to grab the bride right now!"
Yi'er's eyes widened, a gleam of light flickering in her pupils, "Ah? Bride kidnapping?"
It sounds like fun, and she really wants to participate!
------------
Three hundred miles away from the Jiangdong Army, at the border between Tianqi and Yunlai.
The huge and fiery wedding procession traveled for more than a month and finally met the wedding procession from Yunlai at the border.
"Sir Wang, I have long admired you!"
A group of officials came over from Yunlai, led by Zhao Youwen, who enthusiastically and joyfully shook hands with Wang Su, the Tianqi ceremonial officer, and bowed to greet him.
That look was so flattering that it was beyond words.
Wang Su had a proud look on his face, and his eyes were about to glance up at the sky.
Their Tianqi was now the only powerful country, but they hadn't expected to send a princess to marry him! This made him feel extremely frustrated.
"Lord Wang, you must have been exhausted after all this journey!" Zhao Youwen seemed oblivious to Wang Su's expression of indifference, and continued his enthusiastic expression. "The official Yunlai posthouse is just ahead. Hurry, take the princess there to rest."
"I have prepared delicious food and wine to welcome you all!"
Although Wang Su didn't like Yunlai, since he was here, he had to make the best of it. It wouldn't be good to make the relationship with him too awkward.
"In that case, then..."
"I heard that your Crown Prince from Yunlai came to the border in person to welcome the bride?"
A slightly indifferent voice was heard from the big red carriage, causing the officials on Yunlai's side to change their expressions slightly.
"What about others?"
When Zhao Youwen heard this, a look of embarrassment suddenly appeared on his face.
Thinking of the prince's rage in the temporary palace that morning, he couldn't let go of his worries.
"The Crown Prince is not feeling well today, so he did not come to greet us personally. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."
"Not coming?" The voice in the carriage was clearly displeased. After a pause, he said, "Lord Wang Su, since His Royal Highness Crown Prince Yunlai is not available, let's set up camp here!"
"When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is free, we will follow him into the clouds."
Wang Su's expression changed slightly, and there was a hint of pride in his seemingly calm eyes.
However, he did not show it, but pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Your Highness, this, isn't it a bit bad?"
After hearing this, Meng Fang said coldly, "Master Wang, whatever the princess says is what it is. After all, we in Tianqi are not in a hurry to get married."
"Commander Meng is right." A voice came from the red sedan again, "If Yunlai has no intention of marrying, then there is no need for us to go to Yunlai."
Zhao Youwen's face showed anxiety, "Princess..."
"Commander Meng, we will set up camp for three days. After three days, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still unwell, we will return to the capital. The new emperor is kind and will definitely not force anyone to do anything."
Zhao Youwen's expression changed again and again, and the smirk on his face was almost gone. "This... I will go back and report to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Please rest assured, Princess!"
