Chapter 57 -57 Elder Princess, Come with Me
Xiang Ying’s voice couldn’t help but rise a few notches.
“Where did these children come from?”
Fang Qian stood under the moonlight, his expression somewhat sorrowful: “You refuse to even acknowledge this now?”
“Yuanxiao, Yuan Lang, Xiu Xiu, they are my own flesh and blood, you told me that yourself.”

“Don’t you remember that Mid-Autumn Festival when I got drunk, and afterwards I didn’t know anything anymore? To keep me from the pressure, you sent me on a task, not letting me return for a whole year.”
“By the time I came back, the children were already born. You said they were my flesh and blood, I remember all this.”
His gaze flickered: “To say you are really strong-willed, why didn’t you tell me when you were pregnant? Although our statuses are worlds apart, I wouldn’t be irresponsible.”
Looking at Xiang Ying’s somewhat surprised expression.
Fang Qian took two steps forward, speaking gently: “Now you’re leading three children on the arduous road of exile, I’m even more concerned.”
“Xizhou has already perished, Xiang Ying, you’re no longer the high and mighty elder princess, and I’m no longer the shadow leader who cannot see the light. Let’s be together, and raise the children.”
He extends his hand, and Xiang Ying slowly takes it.
Just as Fang Qian was about to rejoice, he was once again thrown over Xiang Ying’s shoulder.
“Puh…” He spat out leaves, looked up somewhat annoyed, “How many times are you going to throw me!”
Xiang Ying had already regained her composure.
Her lips parted, she made a request: “Secondly, don’t directly call me by my name, you should call me elder princess.”
Fang Qian covered his chest and stood up.
“You like it when I call you that? Fine, let’s treat it like a flirtation, elder princess, come with me!”
Xiang Ying refused again: “I won’t go; the children aren’t yours, and also, I want to go to Nanyue, so don’t come again.”
With the original protagonist’s character, it’s unlikely the children are Fang Qian’s.
It seems like she only wanted to use the children to make him work himself to the bone for her.
Xiang Ying turned and walked away, Fang Qian chased after to grab her.
Unexpectedly, before he could even raise his hand, Fang Qian had already reflexively stepped back to avoid being thrown again.
“I said, don’t follow.”
Xiang Ying returned to the children’s side, Fang Qian didn’t continue to follow, and Jie Chen happened to be leading a patrol nearby.
She gave him a cold glance and then lay down to sleep.
Jie Chen silently stood still for a moment, then led his men away.
The next day, Xiang Ying was woken by Tao Xue’s surprised voice.
“Who brought these pheasants?”
Xiang Ying sat up and saw five plucked pheasants neatly placed at her feet.
She was somewhat puzzled and instinctively looked towards Xiang Yuan Lang.
The little guy spread his hands: “It wasn’t me.”
Even if he called the pheasants over, it wouldn’t be possible that their feathers were plucked as well.
Xiang Ying immediately thought of someone.
It must be Fang Qian; he hasn’t left yet, daring to send food over.
The surrounding prisoners couldn’t help but gossip—
“Where’s the free food coming from if not a good deed? It must be from the Military Supervisor.”
“I think so, too. They say that Jie Jianjun has fallen out with the elder princess, I think this is to stop our idle chatter, an act put on intentionally.”
“Ah, the elder princess is indeed lucky to be cared for by someone!”
Xiang Ying looked towards Qi Fengyi: “Even you didn’t see who brought these?”
Qi Fengyi shook his head: “No… they were here when I woke up.”
Xiang Ying frowned slightly.
Fang Qian’s qinggong must be extremely skillful, no wonder he was the original protagonist’s choice to train the Death Soldiers.
“Tao Xue, take two chickens and give them to Skinny Monkey and the others to eat, just say we caught them.”
Tao Xue immediately went away.
Xiang Yuanshuo muttered with complaint, “They’re so mean to us, why would you still share with them?”
Xiang Ying pinched his little cheek.
“Because of the food that appeared suddenly, what if it’s poisoned? We need to get someone to test it for us.”
Xiang Yuanshuo’s eyes lit up.
Makes sense!
Xiang Ying saw Skinny Monkey take it and even waved towards her.
At noon, Skinny Monkey and his crew roasted the wild chicken, and the fragrant smell wafted over.
Xiang Ying watched the soldiers enjoying their feast; it seemed there were no problems.
It looked like Fang Qian was bent on taking care of them.
In the afternoon, when Xiang Ying was pulling the wooden cart, Jie Chen saw her.
He frowned immediately and called over Skinny Monkey: “Where are their original horses?”
Skinny Monkey was stunned: “Military Supervisor… Didn’t you say to arrange for someone to take their horses and treat them equally?”
“When did I ever say such a thing?” Jie Chen furrowed his brows.
Skinny Monkey felt wrongly accused, his gaze shifted toward another Military Supervisor not far away.
Jie Chen understood and with a stern face strode over, grabbed Supervisor Ke by the arm, and dragged him into the forest for questioning.
“Why did you plunder Xiang Ying’s belongings without my consent?”
“I did it because I heard what you said, aren’t you two unrelated? Since you don’t care about her, I must treat everyone equally,” Supervisor Ke said, fan himself with his large palm.
Sweat had tanned his skin dark.
Jie Chen’s face was cold: “That horse was earned by her own efforts treating the Military Doctor’s injuries, and we made a promise based on her abilities; how could we go back on our word?”
“Abilities?” Supervisor Ke was somewhat disgruntled, “In the end, isn’t it our horse? She is a criminal; we can treat her however we wish. It’s you who seems to have lost your mind over her!”
“There are women everywhere. When we bring these people back to Nanyue, we will earn honors and the Emperor will naturally reward us with fine wines and beautiful women. Why are you so fixated on Xiang Ying?”
Saying that, he lowered his voice: “Besides, she’s a disgraced woman who’s had a child!”
Before his words could finish, Jie Chen’s fist had already landed on his face.
Supervisor Ke didn’t expect to be struck and fell down hard.
He stood up holding his face, extremely angry: “You dare hit me? Over a female prisoner?”
Jie Chen’s eyes were cold as ice: “You know my rules, even if the entire Exile Team consists of criminals, we must not insult women like this.”
“Return the horse to her, and don’t make me say it a second time.”
Supervisor Ke clenched his fist and cursed angrily: “You’ve gone mad, you covered up for Captain Jia’s death for her, and now you’re even standing up for her again.”
“Now you’re attacking me for her, once this female prisoner arrives in Nanyue her fate is sealed with death, do you not understand this? I thought you were just playing around, but why are you taking it so seriously!”
Their argument escalated severely, and the surrounding soldiers quickly gathered to persuade them.
The other Military Supervisor also hastily intervened to appease the situation.
Xiang Ying, at the back of the team, only knew there was a quarrel at the front but had no idea what it was about.
She whispered to Qi Fengyi, “If you see someone approaching tonight, don’t touch them, wake me up.”
Qi Fengyi paused, then nodded, his expression becoming solemn.
Although he didn’t know what had happened, Xiang Ying’s instructions certainly had a reason.
When it was time to set off, Skinny Monkey suddenly brought the horses back.
He gave Xiang Ying a sheepish smile, bowing and scraping: “Elder princess, it was all a misunderstanding. It wasn’t the Military Supervisor’s intention to take your horses, but for us to lead them away to graze.”
“This was my oversight, and you shouldn’t blame the Military Supervisor, ah!”
As Skinny Monkey spoke, he also brought over a sack of heavy dried cakes.
“I forgot to distribute these to you earlier; look at my memory, all forgotten in the rush. I’ve specially brought them to make up for that.”
Xiang Ying furrowed her brows.
Why has Skinny Monkey’s attitude done a one-eighty?
