That night, she fell asleep holding her milk-scented little sister, and it was because of the soft and warm little bundle that her frozen heart regained its warmth, transforming from a beloved, naive princess into the now rebellious General Zhentian fighting for her destiny.
Pulling back her thoughts, she gently hugged her sister. Now the Little Princess was still soft and warm, although she had grown up, those eyes remained unchanged, filled with adoration for her.
For this little sister, she, as the elder sister, indeed felt more like a mother.
In the deep quiet of night, just as Her Highness the Eldest Princess was about to drift off into a daze, she heard the faint, weak voice of the Little Princess beside her: "Sister, do you like Bai Yu?"
That handso face, always smiling at you, it’s hard not to like him.
Her Highness the Eldest Princess sighed softly, "Why drag him into this whirlpool?"
Little Princess: "Sister considers his situation, unwilling to involve him, isn’t that a form of protection? So sister does like him, right?"
A long silence.
When the Little Princess thought her sister would not answer, she heard a very soft nasal sound: "Hmm."
The Little Princess suddenly sat up, inexplicably energized, "I knew sister cares about appearances!"
Her Highness the Eldest Princess: "..." This comnt makes feel... so superficial.
The Little Princess lit a candle, and the tent brightened again, "Sister, this isn’t right. If you like him, you should be more honest! Maybe he doesn’t see being dragged into the whirlpool as an unfortunate event, perhaps he would embrace it gladly?"
Her Highness the Eldest Princess calmly replied, "Father sends handso n to as bait, waiting for soone to fall for it. Bai Yu has been here for six months now, surely that person has received news, but just noticed my cold attitude towards Bai Yu, hence hasn’t made a move. If I show even a hint of affection for Bai Yu, he will beco the fifth man to die because of ."
The Little Princess was puzzled, "Bai Yu isn’t that weak, is he? He’s not soone who can easily be killed!"
Her Highness the Eldest Princess shook her head, "In that battle, I nearly lost to him. Simply put, had he not known it was , yielding to at every turn, I wouldn’t have had the chance to break his tendons, maybe I would have lost long ago."
"He... is he that formidable?" The Little Princess found it hard to believe.
Her Highness the Eldest Princess lowered her gaze, "When I was three years old, after Mother discovered I possessed Divine Power, she obtained martial arts secrets and internal techniques from the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhennan, thus becoming the General Zhentian of today. In other words, my martial arts originated from the Marquis of Zhennan and are moves that he is intimately familiar with."
Little Princess: "Bai Yu is the son of a family of generals, also the martial top scholar, perhaps... he can match him in battle?"
"He cannot defeat , how can he defeat that person?" Her Highness the Eldest Princess shook her head, "As long as he is not removed, the Foreign Alliance persists, I will continue to guard here, neither returning to the capital nor marrying."
"Surely soone can handle him!" The Little Princess clenched her fist, fuming, "It’s intolerable, he won’t be happy and doesn’t let sister be happy either!"
"He hates the royal family, hates , to him, I am his fiancée, even if he dies, I have to remain faithful to him, especially now that he is only faking his death, I must stay devoted to him." Her Highness the Eldest Princess scoffed, "Perhaps he’s thinking of invading Great Xia, becoming the next new monarch, and then bringing the princess of the previous dynasty into the harem, that would be the greatest insult to the forr dynasty."
"Detestable! Truly detestable!" The Little Princess was in rage, yet she knew it was just impotent fury on her part, her small eyebrows tightly knitted, the corners of her eyes reddened, infuriated to the extre.
