anyone that she's mistaken."The County Magistrate's heart is with all the people of Luoshui City. Do you think he, who built these canals, would make such a low-level mistakeZong Bai was speechless at...Chapter 1147: This is what you owe our mother and son.

Tana's words won over all the warriors present.

The warriors who came with the embassy to participate in the grand trade fair at Ta-Hee will eventually become the most loyal guards around Tanna. Some people have already made up their minds.

They would pledge their lives to protect the princess, to follow her wherever she went.

Fang Jinxiu and Zong Yu returned to the Marquis' mansion. As soon as they stepped through the door, they noticed someone was there. Zong Bai stood up from a stone bench beside them.

After seeing Zong Bai's face, both of them showed expressions of disapproval.

"The wound on your back hasn't healed, has it You still carry it so deeply."

"A sister-in-law's medicine is only effective if the injured person is willing to cooperate and heal properly."

Fang Jinshi knew why Zong Bai was waiting here, but thinking of Tanna's temperament, these two people were probably destined to have no relationship.

Zong Bai knew that if his older brother and sister-in-law came back and saw him waiting here, they would definitely scold him. But he was really worried.

He glanced back at them, "Sister-in-law, are you two the only ones who came back"

"Didn't we say we would bring the entire Beijang delegation back to the mansion"

Fāng Jǐnxiù sighed, “Tána has a stubborn personality. She doesn’t want to rely on other people’s help.”

"Moving into the Marquis's mansion could temporarily relieve the threat from Xixia and give Hellie no leverage over them, but this was a solution that treated the symptoms without addressing the root cause."

As soon as the Trade Fair was over, on his way back, he could already make a move against the Northern Border delegation.

On hearing this, Zong Bai showed a hint of disappointment.

"If they want to avoid being bullied by Xixia, the only way is to fight back with their own fists," Zongyu said.

Fang Jinshi nodded.

Yes, only by making the other side aware that they are also powerful and formidable can Xixia be deterred.

As for whether it would provoke Xixia into a war on the northern frontier, Fang Jinshi felt it was not necessarily so.

She had seen the map in Zongyu's study. Between Beijang and Xixia lay a vast expanse of Daxia. The distance was far, not to mention that if a war broke out, Daxia and Beijang, as two countries with a good relationship, would understand the principle of "if one tooth is lost, the others will ache."

If the northern frontier is captured by Xi Xia, the next target of oppression and aggression would likely be Daxia.

Even for herself, Dah Hee wouldn't stand by and watch the two nations go to war.

This is the advantage of being far away.

Don't worry, Tanya is very strong. She has a queenly bearing. Don't be fooled by her seemingly gentle exterior; she's actually more determined and resilient than anyone else.

She can handle this.

"It's a pity that she was betrothed to the second prince as a concubine."

Once Tanna entered the Grand Prince Xi's courtyard, no matter if she was a principal wife or a concubine, her talents would have nowhere to be displayed.

How could someone like the Second Prince tolerate a concubine in his own household being more cunning than him

If Tana can break free from this cage and predicament, she is sure to achieve great things.

"Since it is the princess's own decision, then we respect her decision."

"Big brother, sister-in-law, you both must be tired after a day's work. Get some rest early."

Zong Bai was a little disappointed.

Fang Jinshi hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to swallow her words and remain silent.

"Get some rest early and take care of your wound."

"Hmm."

Back in the main courtyard, after the couple finished washing up, Zongyu suddenly asked.

"Zong Bai seems to be paying a little too much attention to Princess Tanna."

Hearing this, Fang Jinshu sighed, “You, as the eldest brother, can be even more obtuse.”

"Song Bai has a crush on Princess Tanna, but he's so blinded by his feelings that he probably hasn't even realized it himself."

Zong Yu's brows furrowed tightly, "They two are absolutely impossible."

Fang Jinxiu really wanted to hit him when she heard her husband's resolute tone. She turned over and lay on her side, staring at Zong Yu's profile and said,

"Sometimes I really wonder if Zong Bo is your real brother. He's already suffering enough liking Tanna, and you still say such heartless things."

"I wasn't just blowing smoke," Zongyu turned to explain.

Tana and Zongbei have a huge gap in status. Tana carries too much weight on her shoulders. Even if she likes Zongbei, they have no chance of being together.

Fang Jinxiu knew exactly what Zongyu was saying, she laid back and sighed heavily.

"That's why I said our little brother is suffering."

"This should be his first time falling for a woman, but he didn't expect the road to love to be so bumpy."

"Zong Bai grew up before our eyes. We all know what kind of person he is. Even if we know there's no result, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy to let go."

Zongyu also began to worry.

"A few days ago, she also mentioned wanting to arrange marriages for Zongyu and Yulian. She asked me to keep an eye out for suitable candidates within the court."

"Mother doesn't care about the other person's family background, as long as they have a good character."

Fang Jinshu nodded. "Mother mentioned this to me as well."

“I could see that Zong Bai had no intention of getting married at all, so I made an excuse to tell my mother not to worry so much.”

It seems mother didn't hear me.

"Go to sleep," said Zongyu.

Fang Jinshu nodded, closing her eyes. Let things take their course; some matters are beyond our control, especially when it comes to the feelings of younger siblings.

Zong Bai has also grown up, and he is not an impulsive person. She believes that he has his own measure and determination in his heart.

But Yu Lian's side, she felt that she couldn't just leave it alone.

The trade fair continued the next day.

On the first day of the Xixia grand assembly, such a commotion occurred that everyone thought that after Herle woke up, there would be endless trouble. Unexpectedly, he remained surprisingly quiet for several days.

The next three days of competition between the nations went smoothly. Xixia and Daxi, as expected of two powerful countries, were evenly matched, each winning and losing half the time, leading the other two nations.

This time, the most eye-catching thing wasn't their competition, but Beijang, which has always been at the bottom.

Wumeng unexpectedly fell to last place, while Beijang ranked just one spot ahead of Xixia and directly behind Wumeng and Daxixi. They are always on the verge of overtaking them.

Offstage, Hellie berated the Xixia player who had lost the match, showering them with insults. Asheng stared intently at this scene and asked Fang Jinshi beside him.

"My lady, you said you would take his head at the assembly."

Tomorrow will be the last day of the conference.

At this moment, there were only the two of them. Fang Jinshu smiled.

"Rest assured, tomorrow you will see his head on a spike as you wish."

If Hellie was hiding in the palace of Xixia, she would have to put in a lot of effort to take revenge. Who would have thought that he actually came to her doorstep himself thousands of miles away.

She absolutely couldn't let him live to leave Daxia City.

Just then, a sudden gasp came from the spectators in the next viewing stand. Fang Jinshu turned her head to look.

"Oh no, Madam Rou has hit her belly and is about to give birth! Come quickly, fetch the imperial physician, and go tell the Lord!"

Wen Xiaorou was hit in the stomach and may have to give birth prematurely

The maidservants of the manor were in a state of chaos, while Yuan Xiangli stood aside with a sinister expression, a sneer playing on her lips.

It seems she really doesn't want Wen Xiaorou to give birth to the child in her belly.

Wen Xiaorou's maid, who had been by her side since childhood, was truly worried for her young mistress. In a moment of panic, she saw Fang Jinshu and rushed to her face, falling to her knees with a thud.

"Madam, it is said that you are a skilled physician. I beg of you to save my young lady."

"Please, please."

Yuan Xiangli fiercely turned her head and glared at Fang Jinshi, standing between the two stands.

"So, you want to stick your nose where it doesn't belong"

Fang Jinshu smiled. "It seems you're afraid of me meddling in this I wasn't planning to get involved, but since you don't want me to, then I just have to."

She suddenly pinned Yuan Xiangli against a wall, rendering her immobile. Then she walked calmly towards Wen Xiaorou.

Wen Xiaorou grabbed her hand, "Save my child, save her, this is what you owe our mother and son." Jinshi nodded, truly speaking, this kind of plot that delves deep into the criminal underworld is really exciting, her blood was boiling, and she felt a little excited.After disguising himself, Fang...
