Chapter 144: Military Training >

, so everyone remained calm. They first extinguished the fire and then each held their weapons, hiding in the shadows of the ruined temple, quietly observing the situation."Hou Yong, you better hand o...The third princess was sent to be a soldier by her own empress. She was astonished and heartbroken. She couldn't remember ever crossing anyone, so why were they treating her like this

And the military officers who enlisted her were very brutal, they stripped her completely naked and threw her into a tub of water, letting her soak for half an hour. When she came out, her fair and delicate skin had turned a dark yellow, and because she was thin, it was obvious that she hadn't been eating well.

Then a set of dull, coarse cloth clothes, a pair of open-toed cloth shoes, and her identity document were thrown before her.

"Put on your clothes and bring your household registration to register."

"I, I am a princess! You cannot treat me like this!"

The Third Princess was furious. Since she was born, she had never been treated this way before!

"You live only because you are a princess. Otherwise, you would be dead by now."

The martial officers looked down upon the three princesses, who were considered useless and unskilled.

"You, you speak clearly! Even if you're going to sentence me to death, at least tell me what crime I've committed!"

The Third Princess shouted loudly.

"What are you prattling on about! The most pampered Huo Mingliang by your side is a spy planted by Panlong Country. He's getting close to you just to make it easier to assassinate the Empress!"

The martial artist glanced disdainfully at the Third Princess and, following the Empress's orders, directly told her.

"What How is this possible"

The Third Princess was astonished. That man who looked frail and scholarly was actually a spy.

Before she could ask again, the warrior pushed her off the cart not far from the registration area and then simply walked away.

The third princess held her household registration in her hand, looking at the long queue. She didn't even have a single copper coin on her body, so she could only sigh and obediently joined the line.

Five people in the team discreetly glanced at the Third Princess, then quickly looked away. They were tasked with protecting her. The Empress had ordered them that unless absolutely necessary, they were not to intervene or reveal their identities to the Third Princess.

Thus, the Third Princess passed the preliminary assessment and, under the name Wu Cuifang, joined the army, beginning her three-month training. If she failed to pass, she would be assigned to logistics. Don't think this is a good place, because the army's "logistics" is responsible for the soldiers' food, lodging, sanitation, cooking, laundry, patrols, and transportation of supplies – the most tiring and arduous work imaginable.

The Third Princess originally wanted to slack off, but upon hearing the result, she immediately perked up and with average-to-slightly-below-average exam scores, successfully remained. She wasn't assigned to the logistics support squad, which let her breathe a sigh of relief.

"Wu Cuifang, your relative is here to see you!"

Someone shouted from the entrance of the tent.

Today was a day of rest, the Third Princess was napping, sleeping soundly when someone called out her name. She didn't pay attention and simply turned over to continue sleeping. It wasn't until their squad leader came over and shook her awake that she realized someone from her family had come to see them.

After the Third Princess fully woke up, she jumped right up, put on her shoes, and ran outside.

She saw a man with a weather-beaten face. When he saw the third princess, his face lit up with joy and he said:

"Daughter, why did you just come out Your father waited for you for a long time. You didn't even send a word back to us after arriving at the military camp. Didn't you know we were worried You've lost weight and tanned."

The other party acted just like a normal, ordinary old father, holding his daughter's hand and talking incessantly as he led her to a secluded grove of trees. Only then did his face change, retreating to the side, and that's when the Third Princess saw her own paternal guardian, Lord Xian Shi Jun.

"

Father

"

The third princess was feeling wronged.

"Alright, I haven't got time for your melodrama. Do you know how big of a mistake you made this time"

The wise servant went straight to the point, not giving the Third Princess any time to buffer.

"I just eat, drink, and play. I haven't done anything out of the ordinary. I don't know about Huo Mingliang's identity as an undercover agent. Anyone who enters the household goes through a rigorous screening process."

The Third Princess immediately began to explain.

" Huo Mingliang's true identity is the fifth prince of Panlong Nation, do you know what that means"

The wise servant directly interrupted the other person's words.

"What The prince!"

The Third Princess was also very surprised.

Yes, absolutely true! He used those things to hook you, making you obsessed. If he got you pregnant, do you know what the outcome would be

The wise minister said calmly,

"Me"

This time, the Third Princess's face was a little pale. Fortunately, they hadn't reached that point yet. Originally, she didn't take this person seriously; he just recited some sour poems and knew some novel tricks. Unexpectedly, his intentions were so deep.

"Your mother is very angry and says that you should train hard in the military, clean up your arrogance, and give yourself a year. What you can achieve depends on you. I also agree with her."

"Yes, Father, I understand! I will reflect on this."

"Don't just talk the talk, walk the walk!"

"Yes!"

"Your empress's body is already recovering well, and there won't be any major problems with the government in the short term. Just stay here and cultivate peacefully."

Your Majesty, he still let slip a word or two.

"May I return home when I am on leave"

"No! That man just now was Wu Cuifang's father. If he had business with you, he would come to see you. Don't even think about running back to the Imperial Princess' Mansion; your residence has been sealed by your Empress Mother. Your Imperial Consort and concubines are all in Zhuoxiu Garden, attending to her."

The wise attendant directly severed her path of retreat.

The third princess' face fell. After being stuffed into a tattered package, she was sent back to the barracks.

When Ripples heard what the wise attendant had to say, she could also imagine how haggard the face of the Third Princess must have been.

"After all, she is my youngest daughter. I usually can't bear to speak harshly to her, which has made her increasingly spoiled. This time is a good opportunity to remove the pampering from her."

"My body is not what it used to be, and I only have a limited amount of time to protect her. In the end, she'll have to take care of herself."

The ripples spoke with heartfelt sincerity.

"Your Majesty, please don't speak such ill-omened words. Your health is gradually improving, and it will get better in the future."

The wise servant frowned.

"Okay, I'm done talking."

The ripples spread like kindness flowing.

At this time, Huiqi came to report that the eldest princess had arrived with her daughter to pay a visit. The wise attendant immediately retreated tactfully, leaving space for the mother and daughter.

"Greetings, Grandmother Empress!"

Nuan Nuan bowed politely to Lian Yi.

"Grandma's good granddaughter, come here!"

A ripple of affection in her smile called the little girl over. She patted the girl's head and asked a few questions, then turned to the older princess and directly inquired:

But what kind of trouble did you run into

"Your Majesty is wise, there truly is a troublesome matter."

Immediately, the Grand Princess conveyed the content of the letter from the Panlong Kingdom and also mentioned the suggestions made by the court officials.

"What do you think"

Ripple held Nannan in her arms and asked directly.

"The daughter thinks they should fight!"ack by the villagers.Once the silver arrived, I told my mother to go around and visit everyone, letting them all know that in order to help the Song family through this difficult time, we had emptied...
