Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 805, Side Story 3: Bu Lianshi (Part 1)

February 1st, the eighth year of Jian'an.

Yecheng.

South of the city.

At this moment, a group of young and beautiful girls are huddled together, chattering away.

These girls were clearly different from women from ordinary families.

They were all wearing weapons.

Some people had curved knives hanging from their waists.

Some people had a bow hanging from their waist.

Some even carried heavy greatswords on their backs.

Unlike ordinary unmarried women who wear veils, they all face the sky with bare faces, their expressions ranging from angry to joyful, unrestrained and flamboyant.

Passersby entering and leaving the south gate of the city cast strange glances at the group of girls.

However, the group of girls seemed not to see it.

They continued to do things their own way.

At the very front of this group of girls was a petite woman with a still somewhat childish face, dressed in a fur coat.

A strangely shaped bow hung from her waist.

There were even gears at both ends of the bow.

Behind her, she carried a slender weapon that resembled a longsword.

At this moment, the woman held the wooden handle of the weapon with her left hand, repeatedly pulling the weapon out of its sheath and then sheathing it again.

Her right hand was holding the hand of a little girl who was completely wrapped in a fur coat.

The little girl had a dagger slung over her back.

The cold wind blew across the little girl's delicate face, making it appear red.

The dagger behind her swayed gently in the wind.

Stomping her feet, the little girl looked up at the woman and said, "Mother, how much longer do we have to wait? It's so cold. Manman wants to eat Aunt Ren's hot steamed buns."

The woman then lowered her head, a smile appearing on her face. She reached out and pinched the little girl's rosy cheeks, saying, "Manman, be good, it'll be ready soon."

The little girl said "oh," let go of the woman's hand, and started jumping around in front of her.

The woman laughed as she watched the little girl and said, "My Manman is just like me when I was a child, almost a carbon copy."

The little girl turned around, giggled, and said, "Aunt Ren said Manman looks like her father!"

"When Manman grows up, she should be as strong as her father."

"My mother is not as capable as my father."

"My father can break a wild horse with his bare hands!"

The woman's face fell, and she began to mutter curses incessantly.

However, no one uttered a sound of cursing.

Her face was full of resentment.

A group of girls who were chatting came up and surrounded the little girl, saying, "Miss Manman, you're wrong. The most powerful martial artist in the world may be your father, Prince Ji, but there is one person who can definitely defeat your father!"

The woman also looked over curiously.

The little girl looked blankly at the group of girls and asked, "Who is it? Uncle Zhao? Uncle Zhao can't beat my father!"

A young girl chuckled and said, "Of course it's not your Uncle Zhao."

“This person is your mother, Miss Manman.”

"No one else can withstand a single punch from the Prince of Ji these days."

“However, your mother was able to ride on the back of the King of Ji, and the King of Ji was willing to be ridden.”

A group of girls blushed and laughed so hard they bent over.

The woman's face flushed red, she spat, grabbed the girl's ear with her right hand, and said angrily, "What nonsense are you teaching Manman?"

"How old is Manman?"

He then looked at the other girls, squinting his eyes, and said, "You too."

"Anyone who dares to mislead Manman, I'll twist your ears off!"

The little girl tilted her head, as if remembering something, and said, "The night before last, when Manman woke up, she saw her mother sitting on her father's lap, and she even asked her father if she was doing well! She still remembers the first time her father bullied her—" The woman's face changed drastically, and she quickly covered the little girl's mouth, saying urgently, "Manman, you can't say things that your mother didn't teach you to say!"

A group of girls looked at each other, their faces flushed red.

As the woman's maids, they had actually overheard it the night before.

When their lord first arrived in Ye City, she was very angry with the King of Ji, and they even had a falling out.

In the past two years, especially after Jiangdong was pacified and the Lord's family members rushed from Qu'a to Yecheng, the Lord began to slowly change.

Nowadays, they might even proactively approach the Prince of Ji.

Each time she was intimate with the Prince of Ji, the lord would gradually reveal her rather sharp voice.

At that moment, facing the woman's murderous gaze, a group of girls looked away, not daring to meet her eyes.

Just as the woman wished she could dig a hole and disappear, someone pointed to the horizon and said, "Is that it? The flag looks like it has the character '步' on it?"

The woman then hurriedly looked over.

After staring intently for a moment, the woman clapped her hands, excitedly scooped up the little girl, hoisted her onto her shoulders, and ran towards the horizon, exclaiming, "It's definitely Sister Bu and the others!"

A group of girls hurriedly followed, saying, "Master, please be careful, don't let Miss Manman fall!"

"My lord, you are now the woman of the Prince of Ji, and your status is higher than that of Miss Bu. You don't need to go up to her!"

"Your Majesty, please be careful! If some people see this, they might report it to the Censorate again! Then, the Prince of Ji will be scolded again!"

The woman ignored her and ran away with the little girl.

The little girl gripped her hands tightly with both of them, giggling.

Before long, they arrived in front of a line of carriages and horses.

In the first carriage, the driver said to the curtain behind him, "Master, it seems to be Madam Sun. She's coming to greet us."

A rather aged voice said, "Stop, don't be impolite."

"Send someone to inform Miss Lian Shi in the back that Madam Sun has come to greet her and that she should come over quickly."

"After all, she is the wife of the Prince of Ji."

The driver responded, signaled the carriage to stop, then jumped off the carriage shaft and ran towards the back.

The curtain was lifted, and an elderly man dressed in heavy clothes emerged from the carriage.

As the old man emerged, the people in the carriages behind him also came out one after another.

The woman, supporting the little girl, had already reached the old man.

The old man bowed to the woman first and said, "Bu Zhi, the governor of Jiaozhou, along with the Bu family members, greets Madam Sun and Miss Sun!"

The woman smiled at Bu Zhi, then looked behind the carriage and said, "Sister Bu has arrived, right?"

Bu Zhi nodded and said, "Madam Sun, rest assured, I have already informed her, and she will be here soon."

"After all, she was personally selected by Madam Sun, so I dare not neglect her."

While Bu Zhi was talking to the woman, several figures came rushing over from behind the carriage.

"Sister Ren!"

"The princess!"

"I miss you so much, Princess!"

It turns out that the woman's name was Sun Ren, and she was the younger sister of Sun Quan, the Marquis of Wu in Jiangdong.

Sun Quan received intelligence that internal strife had broken out in Jingzhou.

Following the advice of Zhou Yu, the Commander of the Central Army, Sun Quan, in order to seize Jingzhou and realize the tripartite division of the world, married his younger sister Sun Ren to Zhang Sui in Ye City as a concubine, thus temporarily ending the war with Zhang Sui and focusing all his efforts on dealing with Jingzhou.

Once Sun Ren arrived in Ye City, he never left, let alone returned to Jiangdong.

At this moment, listening to the voices of several teenagers, Sun Ren's eyes welled up with tears.

I never imagined that several years would pass since we parted ways.

Fortunately, everyone is still alive, which is a blessing in disguise.

The only pity was that her second brother and Zhou Yu sold her to Zhang Sui, causing her to lose her status as a princess, and the so-called tripartite division of the world was never achieved.

Today, Zhou Yu has long since turned to dust.

As for his second brother, he could only spend the rest of his life in the mansion.
