Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Chapter 770 I will always be loyal to you.

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Li grabbed Chu Lingshan's hand and pulled her over.

Chu Lingshan's sleeve was pulled open by her, and Chu Yueli frowned immediately upon seeing it.

Chu Lingshan's arms were covered in wounds.

Li continued to glare at Chu Lingshan, viciously scolding, "You're just a young woman, what are you talking about going to the battlefield? Look at those women who went to the battlefield, how many of them had a good ending? They either lost their husbands or died themselves..."

"Auntie, please watch your words!" Chu Yueli suddenly slammed her hand on the table, her face darkening.

The noise of slamming the table wasn't particularly loud, but it still startled the group of people who were talking with Miao Yucui and Tuoba Liuli not far away.

The old man was so frightened that he hurriedly said, "Yaozong, why aren't you keeping an eye on your woman!"

Chu Yaozong was terrified and quickly came over to apologize to Chu Yueli: "My wife doesn't know how to speak properly, A-Li, please don't be angry."

Li wanted to speak, but was interrupted by a fierce look from Chu Yaozong.

Li Shi, seething with anger, could only glare at Chu Lingshan: "Since Princess Mo is unwilling to help you, there's no use staying here! Why don't you get back to work?"

Then she suddenly laughed again, her voice icy: "If Princess Mo is unwilling to help with this, then you'd better prepare to become someone else's concubine!"

Chu Lingshan was startled and almost burst into tears. She quickly knelt down in front of Chu Yueli with a thud and said urgently, "Princess Mo, I... I know martial arts. I really do. I can be a female soldier."

"Nonsense!" This time, Chu Yaozong was also angry. He put on a stern face and said, "Aren't you going to listen to your mother? Get back here right now!"

"father……"

"Get out!" Chu Yaozong roared.

Chu Lingshan glanced at Chu Yueli, who showed no intention of helping her. Although she was unwilling, she still got up, cried, and slowly turned to leave.

Chu Yueli ultimately failed to stop her.

This was somewhat unexpected by the Li family.

I originally thought I would need to say something to Chu Yueli.

But Chu Lingshan had already left the hall. Although Li Shi had mixed feelings, she couldn't say anything. She decided to treat this as a minor incident and let it pass.

After that, no one mentioned it again.

The old man had indeed only come to pay his respects. After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Chu Yueli, he left.

When Li left, she was not nearly as warm as when she arrived.

After they all left, Chu Yueli went outside and saw Chu Lingshan hiding behind a tree in the courtyard.

"Why are you still here?" Chu Yueli frowned, seemingly puzzled.

"Your Highness, please help me." Only after the people from the Earl's Mansion had gone far away did Chu Lingshan dare to come out from behind the tree and kneel down in front of Chu Yueli again with a thud.

"Your Highness, please let me stay by your side and go to the battlefield with you! I know martial arts, and I'm sure I'm no worse than the other soldiers! Your Highness, please grant my request! I don't want to marry Li Fu, please, Your Highness!"

"What's going on?" Huo Qing and Lu Yunfei, who were not far away, came over after hearing this.

Huo Qing frowned as she looked at Chu Lingshan kneeling on the ground: "What's wrong? Why are you kneeling on the ground crying during the New Year?"

"Madam Qing." Chu Lingshan looked at her, tears streaming down her face. "Madam Qing, please help me! I don't want to marry someone who's only a few years younger than my grandfather. Madam Qing, please plead with Princess Mo for me to join the Chu family army! I will be loyal to the country and forever loyal to the Princess!"
