Do you have the strength to force me to join the Liangshan bandits?

Chapter 713 Princess Tianshou: Your Majesty, you wouldn't be lying to me, would you? [3rd Update]

Princess Tianshou had the confidence to make such harsh remarks because her martial arts skills had improved significantly during her year in Shandong.

She not only learned swordsmanship from "Master Golden Sword" Li Zhu, but also became a disciple of "Dragon Slayer" Sun An.

Everyone knows she is Cai Fu's betrothed, so how could Li Zhu and Sun An not teach her with all their heart?

Therefore, Princess Tianshou's martial arts skills improved by leaps and bounds, making her comparable to Hu Sanniang.

Zhao Fujin didn't have that ability. How could a weak woman like her, who couldn't even kill a chicken, take revenge?
Fortunately, she had a man, so Zhao Fujin decided to take good care of Cai Fu and satisfy all of Cai Fu's fetishes.

She only asked Cai Fu to help her avenge her father's death!
Just then, Zhao Fujin suddenly heard someone outside say:
"It's really strange that the official's funeral hall caught fire!"

"Logically speaking, with so many princesses in the mourning hall, how could the Emperor have burned them to ashes?"

"If you ask me, it's karma!"

"That makes sense! The emperor was incompetent and tyrannical while he was alive, so it's only right that he suffered divine retribution after his death!"

"nonsense!"

Zhao Fujin abruptly flung open the curtain, glaring angrily at the two gossiping women on the street:

"How could the Emperor, who is so wise and sagacious, be subject to divine retribution?"

"Is the Emperor supremely wise and enlightened?"

Because Zhao Fujin's motorcade was very simple and his words were ridiculous, the people on the street burst into laughter.

No one doubted that Zhao Fujin's mourning attire was related to Emperor Huizong of Song, after all, who in Tokyo hadn't lost someone these days?
The streets are filled with people dressed in white mourning clothes; who isn't miserable?

Furthermore, because Cai Fu's military discipline was so excellent, he never harmed the people in the slightest. Cai Fu loved the people like his own children, and he had a great reputation in Tokyo. As a result, the people of Tokyo now only had Cai Fu in their hearts and no longer cared about Emperor Huizong of Song.

So they laughed at Emperor Huizong for not feeling any psychological pressure, but it made Zhao Fujin's mentality collapse from laughing.

Zhao Fujin cried and screamed, "His Majesty is supremely wise and enlightened! All the officials in the court say so, how could it be false?"

The people on the street laughed even more heartily, and a gossipy woman said mercilessly:

"Don't you even look at the kind of people the entire court of civil and military officials are!"
"Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Gao Qiu, Yang Jian, Wang Fu, Zhang Bangchang..."

"Speak carefully! Speak carefully!"

Her husband quickly pulled her away.

"How can you say such things? What if the one who succeeds to the throne is also surnamed Zhao..."

"The royal family isn't without male heirs, sob sob..."

The gossipy woman was pulled into a narrow alley and fell silent.

"Fifth Sister, should we ask Old Jiao to arrest them?"

Princess Tianshou didn't really understand, after all, she was a foreigner and her Song language skills were not high, so she didn't understand what "the most holy and enlightened" meant.

However, she could tell that Zhao Fujin was being ridiculed by the crowd, so Princess Tianshou instinctively protected her family.

Zhao Fujin shook her head, crying, and lowered the curtain.

She was originally a kind person.

Regardless of how Emperor Huizong treated others, he was a good father to her.

However, she was powerless to change others' opinions of her father, and only then did she realize:

So this is how ordinary people perceived her father, the emperor…

Princess Tianshou sighed helplessly. She didn't know how Yelü Hui was perceived by the people.

However, it is no longer important.

The Liao Dynasty is gone.

……

Upon arriving at the mourning hall, Princess Tianshou and her entourage did not go inside, since it wasn't her family members who had died there.

With Li Ping'er's help, Zhao Fujin alighted from the carriage and stumbled into the mourning hall.
"Father——"

Before Emperor Huizong's urn, Zhao Fujin wept uncontrollably. It was already the seventh day after his death, and after seven days of continuous crying, even the princesses had cried their eyes out.

As a result, Zhao Fujin started it all, and the nineteen princesses burst into tears again...

Helpless, Cai Fu walked up to Zhao Fujin, hugged her, and pressed his little wife's head into his chest.

Once Zhao Fujin started crying, she couldn't stop. She cried so hard that she was completely out of control, and finally fell asleep in Cai Fu's arms.

Cai Fu sighed and picked up Zhao Fujin, the little princess, in a princess carry.

He strode out and had a palace maid guide him to Zhao Fujin's former residence in the palace.

They carefully placed Zhao Fujin on the bed, where he was curled up in a small ball.

It feels cold, and I feel scared.

Her delicate eyebrows were still furrowed even in her sleep, and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

Cai Fu sighed silently, gently covered Zhao Fujin with the blanket, and tucked the corners of the blanket in.

He tiptoed out silently, as he still had to comfort his other young wife.

Where is Princess Tianshou?

However, Cai Fu couldn't find Princess Tianshou anywhere, and when he asked around, no one knew where she was.

Perhaps it was a telepathic connection, but Cai Fu suddenly looked up and, sure enough, saw a small figure on the top of the Golden Palace...

Cai Fu's lightness skill can only be described as average. He can jump down from the roof, but he definitely can't jump up to the roof.

So Cai Fu obediently had a ladder brought over and climbed up himself.

It was January of 1122 AD, the dead of winter, with biting cold winds.

The wind is even stronger at this height on the top of the Golden Palace, and the stronger the wind, the colder it gets.

Cai Fu's once neatly combed, shiny hair was now flying wildly in the wind, making him look like a madman.

He exhaled puffs of white smoke as soon as he opened his mouth, and his nose hairs stood up like steel needles, each one distinct as he breathed.

Princess Tianshou sat atop the Golden Palace, holding the Seven-Star Sword in her hand, gazing towards the Yellow Dragon Palace in the north.

His gaze was icy, colder than the depths of winter.

Cai Fu walked over and sat down next to Princess Tianshou:
"A big gift package: I'll take care of my father-in-law's grudge."

"No!"

Princess Tianshou said resolutely, "I will personally kill my enemy!"

"it is good!"

Cai Fu also said decisively, "You will be the vanguard officer for the next Northern Expedition!"

Princess Tianshou looked at Cai Fu with surprise: "Your Majesty, you're not lying to me, are you?"

It should be noted that Cai Fu had many fierce generals under his command, and even Yang Zaixing failed to compete for the vanguard position, so Princess Tianshou would not even dare to dream of it.

"When have I ever lied to you?"

Cai Fu asked in return, and Princess Tianshou pursed her cherry lips, which had been dried by the wind, and threw herself into Cai Fu's arms!
Good guy!
Holding Princess Tianshou in his arms like a little ice cube, Cai Fu couldn't help but hug her even tighter.

He knew that Princess Tianshou was actually more heartbroken than Zhao Fujin, because Yelü Hui only had her as his daughter.

Just from the five thousand female soldiers under Princess Tianshou's command, all dressed in silver-flowered caps, silver-hooked armor, plain robes and tassels, white flags and white horses, and armed with silver-handled swords and spears, one can see how much Yelü Hui doted on her.

If we disregard everything else, just consider five thousand white horses. Do you know how huge an investment that is?

Yelü Hui can be considered the number one doting father in Water Margin, so Princess Tianshou was the one who was most heartbroken.

Moreover, the Liao Dynasty had already fallen, and Princess Tianshou had nothing left but herself and her man.

Zhao Fujin at least had a group of sisters, but she already controlled Princess Tianshou's entire world...

【Don’t worry, there’s more to come】
