Chapter 264 - 264-expanding body
my elder sister is really smart. She is afraid, worried, and trembling. She wants to kill the thirteenth Prince when he is weak. These are the thoughts of the big shots in the Chamber of Commerce. As my elder sister expected, with the protection of the Barbarian King, the people of the Chamber of Commerce dare not make a move.
Speaking of this, Ji Xiaohe suddenly paused. Looking at the lights of tens of thousands of houses in the distance, she suddenly said with a sad voice, ” “Big sister, what do you think the big shots in the Chamber of Commerce will do when they can’t resist or kill them in advance?”
The Jinyun trade union was a merchant. They did not have the courage of a warrior, nor the fearlessness of a swordsman. They only had the tactfulness of the world.
Because of this, even if they weren’t there, red butterfly Ji could still think of the choices those merchants would make.
turn enemies into friends. Since we can’t be enemies, then we’ll turn enemies into friends.
sister, you’re still smart. You think that method is the best to tie down people’s hearts.
There was also the other type. Of course, it was an arranged marriage. If they chose to form a social relationship, then the girl nurtured by the family would become the Prince’s pillow partner. The power of Pillow Talk was terrifying.
Moreover, this was an ancient era, an era where bloodlines were more important. It was unlike modern times where men and women were equal, and there was no such thing as the dink family.
In this world, it was very important to have descendants. There were three ways to be unfilial, and the worst was to have no children. It was a big deal to have descendants in this world. Therefore, even if the girls were not very likable, Lu Chen couldn’t just leave them be if they had children with him.
Even if this didn’t work, even if Lu Chen didn’t care about the children, those people would still benefit from it. One must understand that in this era, the children of the strong would always inherit the Strong’s excellent genes.
If Lu Chen didn’t like children, they could adopt him and by then, the family might have a strong one.
It could be said that in this world, marriage was a very profitable thing. Therefore, almost all family alliances were tied by marriage.
However, it was a good thing for the families and it wasn’t a bad thing for Lu Chen either. It was a good thing to be able to get the service of pretty girls and the resources from the families.
But for red butterfly Ji, it was a natural disaster.
And Ji Xiaohe’s words were not finished, ” now, the exchange competition between us and the Barbarian race is about to begin. Those merchant families are afraid of the ideas of the Yunzhou Kingdom and the wealthy and influential sects, so they don’t dare to act rashly. But when the exchange competition ends and his Highness the thirteenth Prince sets up his village, they will definitely act quickly.
at that time, there will be a large number of excellent and beautiful girls going to the thirteenth Prince’s side. I should have seen those girls before, and none of them are worse than you. Moreover, those girls will bring a large amount of dowry, which is the material that the thirteenth Prince needs the most. How can you fight with them? ‘
These words caused red butterfly Ji’s heart to explode. She really wanted to retort, but she didn’t know what to say.
Ji Xiaohe continued, ” did you know that when seventh cousin’s mother was given to the Barbarian King, she was just like you right now? angry, unwilling, and all sorts of emotions. But now, she is very close to our family. Do you know Why? ,
“She needs the support of the Ji family.”
that’s right. The Barbarian King had more than one woman. In order to have a better life in the palace, our aunt needed the support of the Ji family. Therefore, even though she was angry, she repaired the relationship with our family. When she gave birth to a child, her status in the palace was slightly higher, and her child became a Prince. However, she did not cut off her connection with the Ji family. On the contrary, she became closer to the Ji family.
“For the seventh Prince?”
It was naturally good for her child to become a Prince, but there had never been one Prince. For the sake of her child, the seventh Prince’s mother became closer to the Ji family no matter what she thought.
It could only be said that in a marriage alliance, the girl who married over was only a tie. The more important thing was the power of the family behind it.
Because of this, those big families were not afraid of the hatred of the girls who were married. They needed the support of their families. At the same time, in this world, it was very difficult for strong people with even the slightest will to be tempted by beauty.
“Those who are seduced by beauty will not become great. Even if that kind of person dotes on his own girl, he will not have the strength to take revenge.”
Of course, there were also powerful people who only married one girl, but such situations were far too rare. Instead of worrying about meeting such people, the Ji family might as well worry about being affected by the aftermath of a battle between experts.
At the very least, the chances of the latter were much higher than the former.
Ji Xiaohe said a lot to red butterfly Ji, and her words caused red butterfly’s expression to constantly change. She was thinking and wanted to refute Ji Xiaohe’s words.
However, she realized that her thinking had turned into a dead end. No matter how she thought about it, she realized that it would be difficult for her to compete with the other girls who brought a large amount of dowry.
However, she would definitely not be able to bear the thought of eliminating The Grudge between her and the Ji family.
However, Ji Xiaohe didn’t force her too much, and just said to her,???????? sister, I know it’s hard for you to make a decision. Please take your time to think about it when you go back. But you must remember that you don’t have much time left. After the championship, it will be time for the other big families to make their move.
After saying that, a scroll appeared in her hand.
“This is the spirit snake dance. After cultivating it, it can increase the flexibility of the body.”
After hesitating for a moment, red butterfly Ji still took the scroll. This meant that red butterfly Ji was about to give in.
This was the sorrow of not having her own strength and having to rely on others. She had no freedom to choose her own life.
However, what made red butterfly Ji surprised was that after she took the scroll, Ji Xiaohe didn’t feel happy. Instead, she sighed.
“You don’t seem to be happy that I’ve surrendered,” she said, curious.
“Should I be happy?” Looking at the distant view outside, she sighed, ” “I’ve told you before, my situation is the same as yours.”
Ji Xiaohe’s words were very vague, but red butterfly Ji already understood something.
That girl didn’t have the dream of a young girl. Even in the hinterlands of Yunzhou, when she married the young talents of Yunzhou, there were also many people who eloped for love.
Compared to the geniuses of Yunzhou, marrying a barbarian prince was definitely the most tragic kind.
Not to mention that most of the barbarians were uncultured, unlike the people of Yunzhou, who had a high level of cultivation in addition to martial arts.
Just the difference in body size was enough to make the girls in Yunzhou suffer. It could be said that if possible, no one would be willing to come here. However, there was nothing perfect in this world. The girls of the family enjoyed the support of the family. When the family needed them, they had to pay. Without power, they had no choice.
However, even though she could think of all this, red butterfly Ji still couldn’t help but say, ” “The thirteenth Prince is different from the other princes.” it’s indeed different. Our Prince has the bearing of an Overlord!
I’m not just talking about power. The 13th Prince is smarter than the other barbarians, and he’s willing to give us girls a chance.
Thinking like this, red butterfly Ji thought of the matter she was responsible for. Even in Yunzhou, not many people would hand over the matter of resource allocation to her.
It could only be said that Lu Chen didn’t mind the women becoming part of the upper echelons as long as they showed enough strength. This was something that was hard to achieve in both the cloud Plains and the wilderness.
Because of this, red butterfly Ji subconsciously wanted to protect Lu Chen.
Of course, this mentality was a bit abnormal. In reality, red butterfly Ji’s situation was Stockholm Syndrome.
This symptom referred to the victim’s feelings for the criminal, and even a complex that helped the criminal.
This emotion would cause the victim to have a good impression of the perpetrator, become dependent on them, and even assist the perpetrator.
Such symptoms could be cured in the real world, but no one could cure it now. Therefore, as long as Lu Chen didn’t completely abandon red butterfly Ji, she would continue to help Lu Chen under the moral constraints of Stockholm Syndrome and this era.
Red butterfly Ji and Ji Xiaohe talked for a long time. In the end, red butterfly Ji even consoled Ji Xiaohe and told her not to be so afraid of the 13th Prince.
Red butterfly Ji didn’t return home until the sky turned dark. This was also the reason why she didn’t appear when Lu Chen called her.
As for red butterfly Ji, she was in a bad mood because she knew that the other girls were coming. However, after looking at the secret manual of the spirit snake dance in her hand, she slowly had a new idea.
“After learning the spirit snake dance and having the spirit snake waist, if I’m pregnant before the territory is established, then I’ll win.”
Thinking of this, red butterfly Ji finally revealed a smile.
“I’ll take some time to practice today.”
With that thought in mind, red butterfly Ji put away the scroll and went straight to the bath where Lu Chen was.
When she came over, Lu Chen also came out.
“You’re back.”
Lu Chen didn’t feel much when he looked at red butterfly Ji. But when she saw Lu Chen’s figure, she was stunned. The item in her hand fell to the ground and she felt dizzy.
Looking down at the secret manual of the spirit snake dance on the ground and then looking up at her husband’s figure, red butterfly Ji was already on the verge of tears.
“Why did it grow again, and by so much?”
“This cultivation technique is already useless.”
It was no wonder that red butterfly Ji was on the verge of tears. Lu Chen’s transformation was too unexpected.
husband, husband, what’s wrong with you? I remember that you were only two meters tall when we left. How did you become three and a half meters tall? ”
That’s right, red butterfly Ji was so scared that she was about to cry because
she discovered that her husband had grown a lot. In the time it took tor her to leave the house, he had grown from two meters to more than three meters. She couldn’t help but be shocked and even more afraid..
