The Ugly Woman's Country Life: The Mountain Man Loves His Wife to the Extreme <<< Chapter 3800: The King of the Former Dynasty

Yang Ruqing gazed towards the Tianhai County fifty miles away, her eyes filled with contemplation.

"I wonder what's happening in the city now." she whispered.

Before Luofeng Tang sent her and the Ninth Princess away, she originally wanted to stay. She wanted to fight alongside him.

But he said she couldn't stay, she had a more important mission, that was to protect the ninth princess.

Because it was necessary to avoid attracting the attention of people like Wu Xiong, sending the Ninth Princess out of the city had to be kept secret.

Therefore, none of the palace maids and older female attendants in Princess Nine's courtyard could move. They still had to continue their duties as usual in the courtyard to avoid arousing suspicion from others.

Taking those palace maids and nanny along will not only fail to protect the Ninth Princess, but might even cause trouble, because they are all women with no strength to even bind a chicken.

While Zhou Fujiang and several guards were all male, protecting the Ninth Princess along the way was inevitably a little inconvenient.

Therefore, Yang Ruqing is the most suitable candidate.

Yang Ruqing knew in her heart that Luo Fengtang intentionally said that. His true purpose was not to let her get involved in danger.

“Zhou Fuzhang, this is the first time I've met Tianhai County Magistrate Wu Xiong. I feel that his words and deeds, as well as his bearing and scheming, don't seem like those of an ordinary county magistrate at all!” she continued.

Zhou Fujiang raised his hand to wipe his mouth and said, "Madam, you may not know that in our Great Qi, every county has a magistrate, which is nothing unusual at all."

"But the magistrate of Tianhai County was different," he said.

“Is it because of the location?” Yang Ruqing asked again.

Zhou Fu shook his head. "No, it's not that. It's just that Wu Xiong's identity is extraordinary."

"What's so special about it? Tell me." Yang Ruqing said.

Zhou Fujiang also gazed towards the direction of Tianhai County and said, "Before Daqi, this world belonged to the Wu family."

"Wu Xiong's grandfather and great-grandfather were all Tianhai Kings in the previous dynasty."

“Wang?” Yang Ruqing’s eyes widened in surprise.

"You're saying Wu Xiong is actually a descendant of the former imperial family? A descendant of the Wangye?" she asked.

Zhou Fu nodded, "Yes, a legitimate royal family. The entire Tianhai County belongs to the Wu Xiong family. With heaven high and the emperor far away, the so-called King of Tianhai is actually the ruler of this region."

“What happened later?” Yang Ruqing pursued.

It's no wonder Wu Xiongtong has such a distinguished air about him. Although Wu Zhi may appear to be lustful, his appearance is also quite striking.

Originally, they were all descendants of phoenixes and dragons.

Hearing that the General's wife was interested, Zhou Fubing continued, "In Wu Xiong's grandfather's generation, Qi Jia began to rebel."

The ancestor emperor of Great Qi was merely a general under the Wu Dynasty, but with his literary talent and military prowess, he later brought about the downfall of the Wu Dynasty like a collapsing skyscraper.

"This area of Tianhai has been a prosperous land in the east since ancient times, known as a granary where fish and rice are plentiful. The terrain here is varied, with plains, hills, and mountains, as well as numerous crisscrossing rivers and lakes."

“This place is not only a land of fish and rice, but also a militarily important fortress throughout history. For the Qi family to unify the world, Tianhai County is a crucial location.”

"Wu Xiong's grandfather trained elite soldiers, vowing to fight to the death, and for a time made it impossible for the state of Qi to swallow this juicy piece of territory."

Later, Wu Xiong's grandfather died from illness, and his father directly surrendered to Great Qi.

The founding emperors of yore seized power with thunderous and iron-fisted methods. Later, in governing the land, they adopted a policy of gentleness and conciliation.

Wu Xiong's father was named the Duke of Tianhai, a hereditary title that could never be revoked. Therefore, although Wu Xiong's official position was county magistrate, he also held another identity: that of the Duke of Tianhai.

"Lord Heavensea?" Yang Ruqing was so startled that she was dumbfounded.

Wu Xiong is the Duke of Tianhai, then Wu Zhi would be the crown prince.

The first eunuch prince was born today, thanks to the Ninth Princess.

"That being said, Wu Xiong's rank is two levels higher than yours as generals. You generals are the Loyal and Valiant Dukes."

And a 'hou' was sandwiched in the middle.

Zhou Fujiang stood tall with chest puffed out, a proud look on his face. "Although our general is known as the Loyal and Courageous Marquis," he declared, "he is also the Grand General Protector of the Country! He leads the charge in both northern and southern campaigns, and is the pillar of the Great Qi!"

“Da Qi can do without those idle officials like Marquis and Duke, but it cannot do without our generals!”

“Our general says we are equal to ten, even twenty of theirs!”

Seeing Zhou Fujiang's fervent worship, Yang Ruoqing was very pleased.

"That's right, my Fengtang is the best, the most amazing!" she also said.

Zhou Fuzhang nodded and continued, "It was Tian Haigong Wu Xiong who took the initiative to ask the Emperor for a marriage alliance back then. Madam, think about it, if it wasn't because the Wu family had such a special status, how could the Emperor have truly married the Ninth Princess to Tianhai County?"

“Didn't the emperor say so? Even those imperial officials didn't agree.”

"Princess, to put it in the blunt language of us soldiers, she's not even close to being the first family to have passed through here,"

Even if she went to three, five, or ten houses, she was still a princess! Her status and position were undeniable!

"Zhou Fuzhang, shut your crow's mouth! You've only been to three or five or ten houses!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

A crisp sound suddenly came from behind, interrupting Zhou Fuyang's words.

Only to see Qi Aoshan huff and puff out of the Guanyin Temple, cheeks puffed out, glaring fiercely at Zhou Fubing with a pair of eyes.

Zhou Fujiang was startled and quickly knelt down with one knee, bowing his head to apologize.

Qi Aoshan crossed her arms and looked down at Zhou Fujiang, saying: "I caught you talking about me behind my back. What should I punish you for?"

Zhou Fujiang said, "Let the princess punish me as she sees fit. However, I beg the princess to postpone further punishment until after this. Before that, I must still protect the princess's safety!"

Qi Aoshan gritted her teeth in anger.

Yang Ruqing smiled and came over, holding onto Qi Aoshan's shoulders. "Come on, we didn't say anything bad about you. We were just discussing Wu Xiong's family background, weren't we?"

“Zhou Fujiang is rough around the edges, but he’s not a bad guy. You, as a princess, are not someone an ordinary family could ever hope to marry.”

You are a golden branch and jade leaf, born higher than all of us. Only you can choose others, not the other way around.

"You, don't frighten Deputy General Zhou."

This both praises and criticizes, directly calming Qi Aoshan's temper.

"Alright, I'll give Madam Luo face today and spare you. Get up quickly and boil some water for me. I'm thirsty," she said.

"Yes, this humble servant shall go fetch water at once. Please wait a moment, Your Highness."

Zhou Fuzhang, upon receiving a pardon, hurried to boil water.

Over here, Qi Aoshan looked towards the direction of Tianhai County and said, "It should be starting now, shouldn't it?"

"This princess used scissors to mutilate that so-called Prince Wu Zhi's little brother. Wu Xiong must be furious enough to have his lungs burst! He's probably having people surround the villa right now, intending to catch me and dismember me a thousand times!"

"It's a pity, this princess is clever, she wouldn't be caught by them!"
