1019: Reluctant

Reluctant

"You are the Phoenix Girl, and many ministers are trying to use this point. But for civilians, you are just the Phoenix Girl. You need to do a few things to leave an impression upon the civilians, so that you can really become irreplaceable."0

"…"

"If the Phoenix Girl can bring good fortune for the civilians, they will worship you and you will become holy and untouchable."

"…"

"The previous Queen established the Saint College, so all girls in the whole country are able to receive education and study medicine. Now she is mentioned constantly and spoken highly of by people. However, what she did was no more than building possibilities for women."

"…"

"You are different. You are the Phoenix Girl, and you bring fortune for the civilians across the whole world. Just think about what kind of respect you are going to receive from the civilians. It is going to be something that no one would be able to shake."

Junyi mentioned the merits of these things. Although the words were very true, Junyi was creating a future blueprint for them.

Gu Ruxue, who had been very angry, finally listened to his words, then she began to hesitate.

She was the Phoenix Girl, but she could tell that not everyone considered her someone important.

Especially those noble families in the capital.

If she was able to receive respect from all the civilians, then Gu Ruxue would definitely establish a very strong reputation for herself. She also wanted to become the woman Junyi spoke of. However….

Gu Ruxue was still hesitant.

The potential achievements sounded good, yet she needed to keep herself alive. What if something happened to her and she died, then all the so-called achievements would be in vain.

She had heard about the horrible things happening in Li County, and now she was being asked to go to that dangerous place…

Junyi almost wanted to roll his eyes, when he told Gu Ruxue about all the potential merits that she might receive.

It was not going to work! So he added. "Are you worried about your safety?"

"…"

"Don't worry. When we go to Li County, we will have people who are going to keep you safe, and they will sacrifice themselves for you. So you don't have to worry about anything! Also, you don't have to go to the attack site, just stay at the governmental office, and you can show up when we are done with those monsters."

Junyi had no choice, but to take a step back.

Actually, he believed that it would be best for the Princess Consort of Heir to visit those villagers personally, but he knew that the Princess Consort was not going to say yes to that request, so he dropped the idea.

It was already generous of her to agree to visit Li County.

Gu Ruxue was still feeling quite willing to take the risk, when she heard about the danger at Li County, but if she could just remain at the governmental office, and had someone who would keep her safe, then she was willing to give it a try.

Gu Ruxue sighed, then she nodded. "In that case, I will pay a visit there."

Only then did Junyi sigh.

He had thought that the Princess Consort, who looked so frightened about everything, would not say yes to the suggestion.

Hearing Gu Ruxue saying yes, Zhou Huailing was in a good mood too.

"Ming, pack stuff for your Princess Consort, we are leaving directly," Zhou Huailing said with a smile.
