Can't a girl be a traitor like Cao Cao?

Chi Junlin then opened the door and bowed to Jiang Qian, saying, "Come in."

Jiang Qianju looked disgusted, but she still obediently sat in Chi Junlin's arms and let him wrap her in his clothes.

At this moment, Chi Junlin's internal energy surged, unknowingly dispelling the chill around the two of them.

Jiang Qianju felt warm and cozy in her arms.

I felt a sweet feeling in my heart.

At this point, Jiang Qianju was no longer as resentful as before. She leaned against Chi Junlin and asked with a sweet smile, "Chi Junlin, why did you bring me here?"

Chi Junlin then put his arm around her, pointed to the sky, and said, "Look over there."

Jiang Qianju looked up and saw a milky white band of light stretching across the dark night sky, twinkling with starlight and exuding a majestic aura.

It carries an incredibly romantic feel.

Jiang Qianju immediately exclaimed "Wow!" with immense joy, "Is that the Milky Way?"

"Ah."

Chi Junlin nodded.

To be honest, given Jiang Qianju's noble status, living in the capital, and having seen so much, how could she not have seen the Milky Way?

However, the magnificent celestial phenomena that were once visible were only seen in a corner of the imperial city.

In addition, the bustling imperial city, with its twinkling lanterns at night, caused the city lights to partially obscure the starlight.

It's not as magnificent and beautiful as this high mountain with few clouds, thin air, and the Milky Way in the sky.

Moreover, things we love are only truly beautiful when viewed together with other people we love.

Jiang Qianju gazed at the beautiful nebula in the sky, momentarily lost in thought.

She couldn't help but raise one hand, like a child reaching for the Milky Way in the sky.

But all they caught was the chilly mountain air.

Arrest them again.

But unexpectedly, he grabbed one of Chi Junlin's raised hands.

With her palms clasped together, Jiang Qianju raised her head and met Chi Junlin's gaze.

Under the dazzling starlight, gazing lovingly.

Jiang Qianju suddenly spoke up, saying to Chi Junlin, "Chi Junlin, I like you so much."

Chi Junlin was stunned, not expecting Jiang Qianju to make such a sudden confession at this moment.

This doesn't seem to fit her personality.

But Jiang Qianju ignored this and asked again, "Do you like me?"

Chi Junlin smiled and rubbed his face against her soft, fair cheek, replying, "Of course I like you. You're the one I like the most in the world."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qianju's face immediately broke into a beautiful smile.

She was both shy and delighted, and couldn't help but squirm in Chi Junlin's arms.

Then, he suddenly raised his hand and pointed at the Milky Way in the sky.

“Then Chi Junlin, pluck the Milky Way from the sky and give it to me.”

Upon hearing this, Chi Junlin couldn't help but chuckle, "Am I a god? Do you think I'd pluck the Milky Way down for you?"

Jiang Qianju then pouted and said with a willful expression, "I don't care, I want it! You have to pluck the stars from the sky for me, then I'll forgive your fickleness and stop being angry."

"You are making things difficult for me, Your Highness."

"I won't listen. I won't listen."

Jiang Qianju smiled sweetly, seemingly enjoying the feeling of being coquettish with Chi Junlin.

Chi Junlin didn't indulge her either. He hugged her and suddenly lowered his head to kiss Jiang Qianju.

"Mmm... Chu... Mmm... Mmm... Mmm..."

After being kissed, Jiang Qian immediately became obedient, staying motionless in Chi Junlin's arms, stretching her neck and trying her best to cooperate with Chi Junlin's loving kiss.

Before long, he was panting heavily from the kisses, unable to catch his breath.

"Red King's Arrival"

Jiang Qianju's eyes were alluring, and she wrapped her arms around Chi Junlin's neck, seemingly unwilling to let her go.

Chi Junlin was so aroused by her charm that he couldn't resist whispering in her ear, "If you want stars, I'll let you go up to the sky and see them for yourself..."

Then, before Jiang Qianju could react, he picked her up, used his lightness skill to reach the top of the mountain.

Jiang Qianju exclaimed in surprise and couldn't help but hug Chi Junlin tightly.

He then unleashed his powerful internal energy atop the mountain to dispel the chill.

The two kissed, their love blossoming.

"Mmm... Chirp... Chirp..."

The night is deep, but my love remains unfulfilled.

In a quiet, deserted place, deep affection abounds.

Jiang Qianju's eyes were glazed over, and when she looked up, she saw a sky full of stars.

She couldn't help but gasp softly.

"Ah, Red Emperor... stars... there really are stars!"

-

Chi Junlin took Jiang Qianju to the mountaintop to see the stars, avoiding everyone on the mountain.

Therefore, no one in the temples and monasteries knew what had happened on the mountaintop.

In the inner courtyard where Tong Yan lived, although she did not wait for Chi Junlin to sneak into her room to be intimate with her today, Tong Yan was a little disappointed.

But more importantly, what Tong Yan wanted to show Chi Junlin were the two letters on the table.

Both letters were delivered today, and Tong Yan only read them recently.

One letter was from my senior fellow student in Nandu, who had already met with Ding Xia and wrote to let me know he was safe. The content of the letter was nothing out of the ordinary.

The other letter was somewhat unexpected for Tong Yan.

Because this letter actually came from the residence of the governor of Xiangzhou.

The content was a call to arms, inviting heroes from all walks of life to gather in the southern capital to discuss matters concerning the martial arts world of the South.

Judging from the wording, it seems they want to elect a martial arts alliance leader who can command the martial arts world.

Tong Yan placed her hand on the envelope and couldn't help but frown.

He muttered to himself, "An invitation to heroes..."

She recalled asking Chi Junlin why he had sent Ding Xia to Nandu.

Chi Junlin only said that he would know in a few days.

Now, several days later, Tong Yan received this letter.

So what Chi Junlin and others were waiting for was this?

Tong Yan frowned, unable to help but start thinking.

After the Southern Kingdom was destroyed, its territory was divided into two, namely Xiangyang and Yangzhou.

Xiangdi Nandu has always been the private territory of the Lou clan.

The imperial court also acknowledged this point.

However, Tong Yan knew that although the Lou family was a governor, the things they had done over the years were no different from treason.

However, the current Tong Yan, along with Jian Hezong, has completely sided with Chi Junlin, a fact that the Lou family is unaware of.

That's why they've sent a challenge to Tong Yan now.

Tong Yan knew that Chi Junlin wanted to use these things, otherwise he wouldn't have kept them hidden for so long.

But she still had some questions in her mind.

That is Chi Junlin. What exactly does he want to gain from this?

Chapter 92 Trip to Nandu

After spending a tender night with Jiang Qianju, Chi Junlin got up early the next morning and received a request for instructions from the Tongyan Sect Master.

After reading the two letters, Chi Junlin didn't react much, as if he had expected it.

The next order was for Zheng Gaoda to prepare carriages and horses, and to leave the mountains for Nandu.

At the same time, Chi Junlin received another letter from Yuan Zhaoji, delivered from the imperial city.

In the letter, Yuan Zhaoji explained to Chi Junlin some recent developments in the imperial city, but none of them were anything major.

With Yuan Zhaoji diligently handling state affairs for her, coupled with the military threat posed by Chi Junbao, she was in a difficult situation.

The officials in the court have all been behaving very well these days.

Even though the news that Chi Junlin was no longer in the capital spread, it didn't cause much of a stir.

As Chi Junlin had previously mentioned, she was aware of the situation in various regions where the tax reduction policy was being outwardly complied with but inwardly defied.

Therefore, the next step was to arrange for various departments of the imperial court to appoint imperial censors to inspect and survey the local areas. The results of the implementation of the government orders would be incorporated into performance evaluations to determine whether officials could be promoted.

This should greatly alleviate the current hardships faced by ordinary people.

In addition to these political matters, Wan Zhaoji also devoted a great deal of space to expressing her longing for Chi Junlin through poetry and prose.

Its language is so beautiful, and its emotions are revealed between the lines, telling a story in a gentle and persuasive way.

Even after Chi Junlin read all the letters, the smile on his face never disappeared.

Perhaps this is the kind of romance that only intelligent and talented women possess?

Chi Junlin quickly replied to Yuan Zhaoji with a letter, overflowing with affection and written in a more passionate and explicit style.

Chi Junlin could roughly imagine the blushing expression on Zhao Ji's face after receiving this letter.

In a daze, Chi Junlin even had the illusion of having a love affair with his pen pal through letters.

This kind of sentimental exchange of letters by wild geese is something that even couples who spend every day together can hardly experience.

With anticipation for Zhao Ji's next letter, Chi Junlin carefully sealed his reply with sealing wax.

Then he handed it over to Zheng Gaoda and asked him to send it back by fast horse.

After that, Chi Junlin, who had made preparations, planned to leave Jiuyi Mountain and head to Nandu Prefecture.

-

However, just before setting off for Nandu, another small incident occurred.

That was a few nights ago, when Chi Junlin and Jiang Qianju were stargazing on the mountaintop and had a great night battle.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Qianju caught a cold as a result.

Chi Junlin was also somewhat helpless. Although she knew before that Jiang Qianju was delicate and frail, like a weakling, she never expected her to be so frail.

Chi Junlin also regretted it a little; he should have known better than to go stargazing on the mountaintop.

Although Jiang Qianju's illness was not serious, it was clearly not suitable for her to travel far.

The matter with Nandu cannot be delayed for too long.

Therefore, Chi Junlin had no choice but to leave Jiang Qianju in Jiuyi Mountain so that she could recover from her illness before going to Nandu.

Jiang Qianju was naturally very unhappy about this, and even cried and made a scene at Chi Junlin.

Left with no other choice, Chi Junlin had to leave Yang Yurou and Yu Xiaoye in Jiuyi Mountain to take care of her.

It also prevented her from feeling too lonely, as if she were the only one who had been abandoned.

He pleaded and made numerous vows, promising that once she recovered, he would take her to Nandu and let her enjoy the city to her heart's content before finally relenting.

In conclusion, in the end, only Tong Yan, Liu Li, and the three women from Bei Dou were left who decided to set off for Nandu with Chi Junlin.

Then, Chi Junlin led them on their journey.
