Are you crazy? Trying to trick him into military service? He's the number one dragon on the fro

Princess Yuezhen lived up to her name; even though she was wrapped in a heavy fur coat, only her delicate and petite face was visible, enough to make people dream of her.

Her smile was like a bright moon, filled with innocence and naivety.

Amidst the rustling sounds, Princess Yuezhen removed her fur coat, revealing a long, exotic lake-blue dress. With a hint of shyness, she gracefully bowed to Lu Xiao.

"Yuezhen greets Your Excellency."

Every move she makes, every smile she makes, is captivating.

Zhou Daxing, who was standing to the side, was completely stunned. However, he quickly realized something, shuddered, and stared intently, regarding the beautiful woman in front of him as a pink skeleton.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiao returned the greeting with a respectful bow:

"Your Highness is too kind. I am but a nobody in the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is my great honor to meet Your Highness."

"I wonder, Your Highness, has come here on a journey to the capital?"

He intended to block her directly, but Princess Yuezhen shook her head, her face flushing with even more shyness.

"To be honest, Yuezhen came here for the Marquis's sake."

When news of the Marquis's prowess in battle reached the grasslands, Yuezhen was filled with admiration. She thought to herself that it would be an immense blessing to marry such a great man as the Marquis in this lifetime.

"This time, Yuezhen has come to arrange a marriage between the Marquis and the King on the orders of her father."

"A marriage alliance?"

Lu Xiao was immediately taken aback, as if he were hearing this news for the first time:

"Princess, are you joking?"

"You are of noble birth, while I am but a mere brute. How could I possibly be worthy of you?"

"My lord, this is absolutely true."

Beside him, Siloro nodded solemnly:

"My king has instructed that if the Marquis is willing to marry Princess Yuezhen, then from now on the Northern Hu and the White Wolf Camp will be allies, and the two sides can establish a lasting relationship."

"And as long as Your Excellency wishes, my grassland tents will always be open for you!"

"My lord, my king dotes on Princess Yuezhen the most, and now he is betrothing her to you, which shows how much he values ​​you."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiao fell silent, and after a long while, he looked back with a face full of surprise:

Is this really true?

"Absolutely true!"

Xiluoluo laughed hurriedly:

"Your Excellency may not know this, but ever since Princess Yuezhen heard about your heroic deeds, she has been unable to eat or drink, and often paints pictures of you based on her imagination."

"Having seen you today, we realize that Your Excellency's handsome appearance and refined bearing are far beyond what a mere painting can capture."

While Xiluoluo was saying these words, Princess Yuezhen kept looking at Xiao Chen, her open gaze carrying a hint of shyness.

She was indeed very resistant to being chosen as a bride for a political marriage at first, but how could an unfavored princess decide her own fate?

On the way here, she even thought that even if she really married Lu Xiao, she would definitely find an opportunity to go out after a while and find her own true place of freedom.

But now Princess Yuezhen suddenly felt that it wouldn't be bad to marry someone like Lu Xiao.

At least this Zhou man in front of me is handsome and a skilled warrior; he's a rare good man!

"Isn't that a bad idea?"

After pondering for a moment, Lu Xiao looked at the other person with some difficulty:

"I am a Marquis of the Great Zhou Dynasty, a title bestowed by His Majesty. All matters, large and small, must be consulted with His Majesty before a decision is made."

"Moreover, Princess Yuezhen is of noble birth and should be married to a prince or member of the royal family of our dynasty, not to an outsider like me."

"This is really..."

"My lord, there is no need to worry about this."

Xiluoluo noticed the covetousness in his eyes for Princess Yuezhen, as well as his fear of the Great Zhou royal family. She sneered inwardly, but on the surface, she spoke with unwavering enthusiasm:

"My king has already written about this matter in a letter and sent a special messenger to the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty to present it to your Great Zhou emperor."

"With your achievements, you are more than qualified to marry Princess Yuezhen."

as predicted.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiao visibly relaxed, pondered for a moment, and then sighed:

"If that's the case, then if I were to refuse again, I would be ungrateful."

"But General Xiluo just said that after the marriage alliance, the soldiers of my White Wolf Camp will be able to move freely across the grasslands?"

For a moment, Xiluoluo and Princess Yuezhen exchanged a glance in secret, thinking to themselves that this famous Marquis of Zhou was nothing special, having no resistance to beauty at all.

Especially Siloro.

He had seen Lu Xiao from afar during that battle and was amazed by his bravery.

Moreover, the moment he met Lu Xiao, he praised the Great Zhou for having such a talent, fearing that it would grow even stronger in the future.

But now, he feels that all of this was unnecessary worry.

It was obvious to anyone with eyes that Lu Xiao seemed dissatisfied with the court's treatment of him and intended to make contact with the Northern Hu.

In this way, as long as some dazzling things are spread across the borderlands in the future...

"General Xiluo, General?"

Lost in thought, Xiluoluo heard several urgent and worried calls and quickly came back to her senses.

Once she focused her eyes, she saw Lu Xiao staring at her with concern, while Princess Yuezhen beside her looked even more worried.

He smiled sheepishly and gave a brief explanation to the two of them:

"Just now, I was thinking about how to give the Marquis a grand wedding."

"On our grasslands, every wedding is important!"

"Thank you very much."

Lu Xiao smiled slightly, exchanged a few pleasantries with the other party, and seeing that it was almost noon, invited them:

"You have all come from afar and must be exhausted from your journey."

"However, please make do with yourselves in the army for now. After you have a meal, I will arrange for you to enter the city."

"No need."

Upon hearing this, Xiluoluo hurriedly stood up to decline:

"My main purpose in traveling south this time was to deliver Princess Yuezhen to the Marquis's side. Now that the mission is accomplished, it is not appropriate for me to stay any longer."

"My lord, Your Highness the princess, I shall take my leave now."

"Aren't you going to eat anything?"

Lu Xiao chased after him, but saw that the other person had their back to him and was waving their hand in refusal. He sighed helplessly.

He paused outside for a moment, at which point Zhao Xiaoqi walked over and whispered:

"A caravan also accompanied the Northern Hu envoys on this occasion."

"I have already checked, and there is no one else inside."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiao grinned:

"Even if there are people with ulterior motives mixed in, it doesn't matter. I already know what they're planning."

"Zhou Daxing!"

"exist!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Daxing ran over immediately.

Lu Xiao reached out and patted the other person on the shoulder, saying solemnly:

"In half an hour, I will give you a letter, which you will personally deliver to the Emperor and the Prime Minister in the capital."

"I will tell Princess Yuezhen later to ask her to stay in the city temporarily. After all, the army does not allow female relatives to stay. At that time, you can take a few personal guards and send her to the capital..."
