Hu Luoyan turned his head as soon as he heard a girls voice and saw the young girls sharp chin propped on top of the window sill.

Even though that troublesome spring was installed under the carriage, there were still some unavoidable rocks and dips along the road that made the carriage occasionally jolt and sway. Hu Luoyan furrowed his brows without much thought and immediately reached out a hand over to her as the carriage crossed through a small pit, naturally sticking his palm in between the girls chin and the window sill to prevent a tragedy from occurring.

If you dont ride the carriage, what are you going to do!? After passing through the dip, the soft sensation of the womans skin gently bumping on the back of his palm and her exclaim finally brought Hu Luoyan back to his senses. He instantly got annoyed at himself for reaching out a hand as if he feared that the woman would get hurt, and so, his response to her went, Are all the princesses of Great Chu as troublesome as you are?

Once he said this, Hu Luoyan regretted his words.

He usually used such a tone to speak to his subordinates. However, the person before him was clearly not his subordinate but a dainty princess, who was pampered and sitting at the lap of luxury growing up. If he carelessly reprimanded her like this without any qualms, wouldnt the woman burst into tears?

Tsk, how bothersome.

However, what surprised him was that Chu Jiao didnt cry over his slightly harsh words. She merely looked at him with her big watery eyes and said matter-of-factly, Thats right. I am a princess. As long as Father Emperors fury is not provoked, Ill naturally make as much trouble as I like.

Hmph, dont forget that youre about to become Xianbei Khans woman soon. Hu Luoyan retorted.

What business is it to you then? Chu Jiao was deliberately provoking him, Im your future sister-in-law. If you dare bully me, Ill tell on you to your brother!

What brother!

Youre already talking to the person himself!?

Hu Luoyan really wanted to say this, but because he was hiding his real identity, his circumstances prevented him from doing so, and as such, he could only stifle these retorts down in his chest. His thick brows inadvertently scrunched up, making him look extremely intimidating to anyone that saw him as though he could blow up and kill anyone the next second.

On the other hand, Chu Jiao knew that the man had a peculiar habit of saying what he didnt mean, so she simply didnt fear him. Instead, she cutely propped her chin on the mans thick palm and blinked her big alluring eyes at him, saying, Beardie, let me sit on a horse~ Just for a while~ Riding the carriage is killing me~

The girls exquisite and charming face was sitting on his palm right now, while her thick, long lashes were akin to a brush. Every time she blinked, they would gently sweep his palm, making Hu Luoyan feel itchy all the way to his heart.

If he had recovered his memories, he would instantly know that Chu Jiaos current behavior could be completely summarized in two words, selling meng1Selling meng means to act cute..

However, as of this moment, he had no recollections of the past. He only felt that it was particularly hard to reject her request.

Women are so troublesome!

Although he grumbled this phrase once again, he still did as he was asked and had soon returned, bringing with him a docile filly2Filly is a young female horse. Its counterpart is called a colt..

The filly stood in front of Hu Luoyans Ferghana horse and audaciously made a loud snort to it as if to demonstrate power. Hu Luoyan felt like this horse was just like the haughty princess, equally as aggravating.

Chu Jiao happily shed off her complicated clothing with the help of Hong Xiu and put on the riding attire her consort mother had prepared in her chest of clothes. Since the filly was already prepared and she had changed into a proper outfit as well, she pushed the carriage screen open and stepped out.

Princess, are you going to ride the horse or not?

In all honesty, Hu Luoyan wasnt really in a hurry, but the more he thought about it, the more he was losing his temper. He was angry at himself for becoming more and more compliant to this womans requests as if he had drunk a powerful potion that made him forget what the woman had done before, and so, he impatiently urged her, irkly standing beside the carriage.

In the end, when he lifted his head, his grumbling came to a spontaneous stop.

He once answered his younger brothers question during the celebrations of his ascension as khan.

His younger brother asked, Brother, what kind of empress do you want?

Hu Luoyan abruptly let out a boisterous laugh and eagerly raised his cup in cheer, replying, Naturally, someone whos courageous and has wit. Someone who possesses exemplary martial art skills and wont lose to any young man. A young girl who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Gu 3Gu is like zhen, the imperial way of referring to oneself. In this case, because Hu Luoyan is the khan, he refers to himself as Gu.!

However, at this moment, he saw the princesss jade-like bewitching face with a ponytail on the back of her head, standing behind the carriage, wearing a red riding attire that emphasized the sleek silhouette of her waist, and the ideal queen he had in his heart, underwent an immediate change.

Perhaps, having a delicate but pretty empress didnt seem so bad either?
