God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

Faced with Arvind's words, listening to the sincerity in them and the respect in his actions, Liu Xiu was completely at a loss for words.

Whether it's good or bad, it seems that it's no longer something she can decide. Since things have come to this point, she can only continue as they are.

Fortunately, she had a fairly good impression of Arvind and a fairly high level of trust in him, which was enough to somewhat offset her inner worries.

"In that case, I'll trouble you, General," Liu Xiu said in a calm tone, trying his best to suppress his inner concerns.

Arvind was completely unaware of this, and instead nodded firmly, treating himself as a guard.

With a soft sigh, Liu Xiu stopped looking at Awende and turned back into the house to rest in the courtyard where he was temporarily staying.

Previously, we only regarded this courtyard as a precaution, a means of escape in case of emergency, but we never expected it to actually become a place of rest.

Just thinking about the people outside made Liu Xiu restless and unable to sleep.

Fortunately, due to my physical condition, I didn't waste too much time and eventually fell asleep.

However, Arvind did not fall asleep. Instead, he remained alert outside the door, wary of any potential danger from any direction.

This is Chang'an, the capital of the Han Empire. Under normal circumstances, a princess of the Han Empire of such high status would not be subject to any attack or harm.

They used to think so too, until someone dared to assassinate Liu Tong in Weiyang Palace, and that perception was completely shattered.

Even for a princess of the Han Empire, absolute safety could not be guaranteed within the Han Empire. Although some of the danger came from the Kushan Empire, it could not conceal the fact that danger did exist.

To avoid such danger, it is essential to strengthen vigilance and increase preparedness to prevent any unforeseen events.

Under Arvind's vigilance, Liu Xiu, after tossing and turning for a while, finally managed to get a fairly good night's sleep.

As the morning sun slowly rose and some noise gradually emerged, Liu Xiu finally woke up.

After regaining consciousness, I stared blankly at the unfamiliar ceiling for a moment before I could recall where I was. Then I shook my head.

After quickly getting dressed, Liu Xiu left the bedroom and went to the courtyard. Before he even entered the courtyard, he saw Awende standing by a pillar outside the door. He was not asleep and was still in a slightly guarded posture.

"General Arvind, you've worked hard." Looking at Arvind's current state, Liu Xiu could guess that the other party had indeed maintained a high level of vigilance all night.

However, anyone who saw cold sweat beading on the forehead of someone whose internal energy had left their body knew that the opponent's energy expenditure was definitely not low.

The fact that the other party had expended so much energy naturally made one understand the effort they had put in and the caution they had shown in this regard. "I am not tired at all, Your Highness is safe and sound." Hearing the familiar voice behind him, Arvind breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around to greet him, showing his respect and his attitude.

"You still insist on this. In that case, I won't trouble you any further, General. It's not good for you to waste too much time. You can go back and prepare properly..." Liu Xiu looked at Awende and finally accepted this foreign general who was about the same age as her. However, due to the special nature of her identity, she couldn't say it so clearly.

The princesses of the Han Empire today are not the same as those of decades ago; they should be mindful of the impact they have on the nation.

If it were to implicate someone because of this, let alone one Arvind, even if there were ten, Liu Xiu probably wouldn't be of much use.

"Prepare?" Arvind raised his head, looking at Liu Xiu with some surprise, completely unaware of what he was supposed to prepare. Was there something wrong with what he was doing?

From a purely legal perspective, he certainly didn't achieve the best outcome, but from a personal cautionary standpoint, there was nothing he didn't do.

"Family background, date of birth, birth date..." Seeing that Arvind couldn't understand the reason, Liu Xiu didn't know whether to be happy or helpless.

For her to say these things is rather frivolous.

Fortunately, there was no one else present, otherwise what she said would have been enough for those officials to impeach her. Although they probably wouldn't care, since things had come to this point, Liu Xiu naturally had to act cautiously.

"What?" Upon hearing these words, Arvind felt as if he had misheard something. He froze on the spot, looking somewhat incredulous, his eyes flashing with shock.

"If General Arvind is unwilling, then let's pretend I never said anything..." Liu Xiu could understand the shock revealed in Arvind's behavior and eyes, and she could also understand that the other party was not resisting this point. However, Liu Xiu, who had practiced a lot in this area, could not only advance by retreating, but also retreat by advancing.

Pulling back and forth is certainly not a good thing, and may even lead to accidents, but when used on Arvind, the effect is truly outstanding.

"Yes, I am willing! I am very willing!" Arvind, realizing what was happening, stated his decision with unprecedented speed and determination.

If Liu Xiu had taken everything back because he was too slow to react, Awende would have killed himself for being stunned for a second.

It's simply outrageous that he would hesitate when such a great opportunity is presented to him.

“In that case, General Arvind will prepare these things. I will go and discuss with His Majesty to coordinate a process and timeline…” Seeing that Arvind’s actions were similar to what he had thought, Liu Xiu then expressed his thoughts and the subsequent arrangements.

She is, after all, a princess. Some procedures can be omitted, but some cannot be omitted at all.

"Understood, I will prepare immediately and will certainly not fail the princess's trust." Regardless of whether he could do it, Arvind immediately agreed and then looked at Liu Xiu seriously.

For the first time, when I looked into Liu Xiu's eyes, there was no avoidance, no caution, no fear of losing him, and no fear of disappearing. There was only respect, a respect from the bottom of my heart.

He respected Liu Xiu, and he also respected himself; this was the only time in ten years that he had such thoughts and a sense of respect. (End of Chapter)
