However, when she grew up, she realized that she had to fulfill this promise with her entire life. When she was young and ignorant, she had made a lifelong promise to Yin Huaixi.
Fortunately, they had been connected in the past. Yin Huaixi also said to her,
“I’ll protect you for the rest of your life.”
Her life was so long, and not every promise could be fulfilled.
She was so lucky to have met someone who had accompanied her as a “cousin” when she was young. When they grew up, he would continue to fulfill the promise he had made in the nof her fiance. In the future, he would still protect her as a “husband” and gradually grow old.
“That’s great.” Yu Youyao smiled softly, her dimples appearing. Yin Huaixi looked down at her with curved eyes. “What’s wrong?”
Yu Youyao shook her head. “l just feel very happy.”
After a while, Yu Youyao felt that the coldness on her scalp had dissipated a lot. However, her thin clothes could not withstand the humidity and coldness of the wind and rain, and her entire body was cold.
If she had known earlier, she would have brought a cloak when she went out in the morning.

After all, there would be unpredictable storms.
Her shoulders sank slightly. She looked down and saw a man’s cloak draped over her shoulders. The coldness of her body immediately dissipated.
Yu Youyao looked at him in disbelief, her eyes sparkling. “Why do you have a cloak?”
This was a treasure boy!
Yin Huaixi smiled and said, “I’m a general, so I’m used to wearing a cloak all the time. Sometimes, when I camp at night, I’ll just put on a cloak and wrap it around my body for the entire night. It can protectfrom the cold. When I eat in the wilderness and spread it on the ground, the food in my mouth will be cleaner and I won’t fall sick…” At this point, he changed the topic. “It’s fine to wear a cloak when I’m out.’
When he wore it, he thought that he might be able to pick a mountain. Then, he would place the cloak on the ground. The two of them would lean against each other’s shoulders to look at the stars and the moon. The clouds were rolling and the mountains were covered in mist. It was also a different scene.
However, Yu Youyao knew that in addition to warding off the cold and dirt, materials could be taken from the cloak on a general’s body if he was injured in battle. It could be used to bandage his wound. During the battle, the cloak would blow in the wind, and it could confuse people. There was a saying that went, “Wrapping the corpse with horse leather.” The corpse in this saying was wrapped in a cloak.
Niost generals would always wear a cloak when they were outside, even in the royal court.
This cloak was a symbol of status. At the stime, it was a heavy burden. It was also a symbol of being prepared to fight and kill at any time.
Generals would only take off their cloaks temporarily when they were at home.
Yu Youyao had seen this cloak before.
Just as Yin Huaixi was conferred the title of King of the North, the Imperial Court gave him a set of armor.
It was said that this armor had a powerful background. After the previous emperor ascended the throne, he had specially found the most exquisite craftsmen in the world. It had taken three years to forge it with meteoric iron, fine iron, gold, natural silk, and so on. It was modeled after the armor of Emperor Gaozu during the war.
After the armor was successfully forged, the previous emperor personally held the armor and brought the ministers into the Imperial Temple to pay respects to Emperor Gaozu and the previous emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
In front of the ministers, he put the armor into a treasure box and sealed it forever.
This was the sprinciple as dismissing military hierarchy using wine cups. The ministers also knew that by putting the treasure armor into a box, the previous emperor was warning the generals and nobles.
From then on, the swords of the generals were kept in boxes.
Meanwhile, the previous emperor valued literature over martial arts. Under benevolence, he vigorously developed agriculture and commerce, suppressing the four seas. Under the previous emperor’s governance, the Great Zhou Dynasty reached its peak.
It was said that during the previous emperor’s era, the treasury was extremely abundant. A lot of money was invested in the army to forge weapons, armor, and so on. The Great Zhou Dynasty’s industrial technology had also reached an unbelievable level.
The excellent weapons and equipment also intimidated the external enemies.
Old nobles like the Ning Residence and the Zhenguo Marquis Residence gradually fell.
However, since ancient times, when one was at their peak, they would definitely decline. The previous emperor had never dreamed that most of the large foundation he had painstakingly built for the Great Zhou Dynasty would be destroyed by the current emperor.
Back to the topic.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter this set of armor was sealed, it had been offered to the Imperial Ancestral Temple. It wasn’t until the Imperial Court conferred the title of King of the North to Yin Huaixi that the current emperor suddenly thought of the treasure armor in the Imperial Temple.
Hence, he imitated the previous emperor back then and brought a group of ministers to pay their respects to the Imperial Temple. He reported to the spirit of the previous emperor and explained that the current situation of the Great Zhou was troubled internally and externally. The treasure armor was out to stabilize the world.
Therefore, he personally took out the treasure box and gave it the n“Four Seas Calming Dragon Armor” on the spot. In front of his ancestors in the Imperial Temple, he gave it to King Yue Fei.
King Yue Fei knelt down and bowed. He thanked his master and said, “My ancestors have contributed. I will definitely not let down the merit and foundation of my ancestors.”
This move of kindness and authority was really smooth.
Speople would feel that the Four Seas Calming Dragon Armor was a little familiar. Then, they would think of the dagger that King Dongning had given to the current emperor a few years ago. He had named it the Four Seas Dragon Dagger and gave it to King Li of Zhou.
Many years ago, due to King Li of Zhou’s grievances, this dagger returned to the emperor’s hands. Then, as King Li of Zhou’s grievances were cleared, it was given to Yin Huaixi, the son of King Li of Zhou.
The Dragon Armor and the Dragon Dagger were only a word apart, but they were exactly the same.
The Four Seas Dragon Dagger carried the loyalty and benevolence of the King of Zhou to the Great Zhou and the current emperor. It had witnessed King Li of Zhou’s sincerity in this life. He had risked his life for the Great Zhou Dynasty and the current emperor.
The current emperor had given the Four Seas Dragon Dagger to Yin Huaixi as a warning and a favor from the emperor.
Meanwhile, the Four Seas Calming Dragon Armor was mixed with the current emperor’s expectations for King Yue Fei. He hoped that Yue Fei could be like his father, King Li of Zhou, and sweep away the disloyalty of the four seas for him. He hoped that the nine states would be vast. He also hoped that the country would be stabilized and that the four seas would be suppressed.
It had to be said that the dog emperor’s character was not good.
However, he still had good taste in people and was quite good at using people. There was no need to mention how the Weining Marquis Residence back then had becthe number one noble of the Great Zhou Dynasty in such a short period of time, let alone how much Yu Zongshen had earned for the Great Zhou Dynasty after entering the Ministry of Revenue. Just based on Yin Huaixi’s determination, it was naturally not a problem for him to descend to the four seas and stabilize the nine states.
Unfortunately, he had still lost his magnanimity as a ruler in the end. He played with power and was not worthy of being served.
Back then, the previous emperor had forged the Four Seas Calming Dragon Armor to intimidate generals. The better the quality of the treasure armor was, the better. Therefore, the color of the treasured armor was dark. There was red among the black..
