Tie Yi's eyes turned sour, "You're so good to me! "Thank you!"

Yue Ying said dejectedly, "I don't need your gratitude, I just want you to live well!"

The weather today was better than yesterday. After a while, when the sun rose and they finished breakfast, the Uncle Feng began to assign the missions.

There were a total of one hundred and sixty miles from the outpost to the Locked Yang Pass, and there were close to thirty odd places where the terrain was dangerous. The two thousand people were divided into twenty groups of one hundred and one, led by their respective veterans, to intercept and block the enemy. They did not come into direct contact with the enemy, and only harassed them, and did not dispute the gains or losses on the ground.

The Uncle Feng's base camp was in the sack that General Gens had arranged. As long as Chiron got angry, he would definitely attack. When the time comes, he would be able to take off this burden. These words could not be said to Tie Yi, so everyone else knew, and only he himself did not know.

Tie Yi was arranged to return to the general's mansion to communicate, and tell General Gens of the plan everyone had discussed. The people in the village all went their own way, but the General Gens had to be ready for backup.

Yue Ying didn't plan to stay here for too long. Tomorrow was her aunt's second or seventh day, she still had to rush back to the village. Since the Uncle Feng was in charge of the war, he believed that Tie Yi would not take too much risks. He could rest assured and bring the injured back with Qing Mei.

After returning to the village, he would prepare food for everyone. If they fought, who knew when it would end, and General Gens didn't have any promises, they wouldn't let the big guy fight with hunger in the first place. Then, Yue Ying will have to prepare all the food and food that she needed, and write a huge sum for Geng Yuedong.

The report of the war in the northwest had been submitted to the military. The assistant minister of the military had approved the war and failed to report it in time.

The reason for this was that he had messed up the military opportunity, lost the land, humiliated the country, and was executed according to the rules. After guarding the kingdom for ten years with many meritorious military service, he would be able to return to the capital to prepare for his crime.

This note was presented on the imperial page. The emperor could only look at it and see if it was given to the emperor!

Old Lady Feng slept late the night, and before she had woken up in the morning, Chang Quan had already reported all the information she had gathered in the palace today.

Peony told him to wait outside and went in to help the old lady wash.

The Old Lady Feng looked exhausted as she said, "Prepare two gifts, and find a suitable opportunity to thank him. It's rare that someone would be willing to speak up for us at a time like this."

Just as Old Lady Feng finished speaking, Peony continued, "That person from Green Bamboo Hall entered the palace today."

"It is impossible to guard against all kinds of thieves. Didn't I tell you not to step out of the courtyard? How did you get her to run out? " Old Lady Feng immediately rolled her eyes, gritting her teeth in hatred, "How can I allow her to become a demon at a time like this?"

"She has the Royal Medallion. Who dares to stop her?" Peony was extremely wronged.

Old Lady Feng sighed, "Forget it, whether it's fortune or misfortune, whether it's misfortune or not, we can't avoid them. Take note of the reports from the west side, I think today's documents should be sent down. At that time, you will know what happened, and I hope that it will not be too bad.

Seeing that the Old Lady Feng had calmed down, Peony said, "Chang Quan is here, why don't you call him in?"

Old Lady Feng nodded, her heart was in turmoil, it seemed that the report for the war in the Northwest had arrived, as she was also worried about what was going on.

Chang Quan worriedly walked into the house. With a heavy expression on his weathered face, he said, "The Old Granny's news has come."

Old Lady Feng calmed herself and asked, "What do you mean?"

As long as the Locked Yang Pass does not lose anything, it is not a big deal to lose one or two passes. It is just that, I am afraid that the Fifth Madam will not be able to withstand the pressure from the west. " Chang Quan deliberated as he replied.

"Sigh!" "I'll ask for an order to transfer some reinforcements. You can continue to send people to the imperial court to keep an eye on the Imperial Court and gather some information for the eunuchs in the palace. If there's any news, report immediately." Although Old Lady Feng now knew that the losses weren't too big, whether it was a fine or a downgrade, it was fine as long as the person was fine.

Chang Quan nodded and left.

"As long as the damage isn't too great, it shouldn't be a problem. Old Granny can rest assured."

Victory and defeat was a common occurrence in the, and the loss of this pass was not enough to reverse the situation. There was still a large chance for the Iron family to take back the pass, so he was not too worried, but the problem was that the moment the pass was lost, without a barrier, the pressure on the Locked Yang Pass would be immense. That was a hundred thousand men and horses!

Old Lady Feng had Peony write a memorial for him and also mentioned the request for reinforcements. This battle was not easy to fight and there was a shortage of people, the responsibility wasn't Geng Yuedong's mistake in commanding, but rather the difference in strength between the two sides.

Once this memorial was finished, it was immediately submitted to the Military Department. After the Military Assistant Minister was approved, it was handed over to the Cabinet, and was then suppressed by the Prime Minister Guo.

Just as Old Lady Feng was looking forward to the approval of the document, Murong Yuntong was also looking forward to it.

He originally thought that the destruction of the outpost would cause the Iron family to panic, but he never thought that there would actually be someone willing to speak up for the Iron family. Out of the two most capable girls beside him, one had died, while the other one had an unknown life and death situation.

Murong Yuntong packed her bags and prepared to leave the tavern, but when she accidentally discovered a crumpled letter in the bag, she suddenly remembered that there was one more person, Xie Jin, the Shangguan family's orphan.

This letter was dropped by the Xie Jin who pretended to be a little girl. With a flash of inspiration, she had to start from the inside if she wanted to break through Locked Yang Pass.

It had been five days since Xie Jin returned to the house of the Marquis and she had not taken a single step outside. He did not dare to leave as he did not know how to face these people from the house of the Marquis. When his former companions came to visit him, they saw that he was in a trance and thought that he was not feeling well. At the beginning, they would come to visit him every day, but after that, they saw that he was still calm and distant.

Just as he finished breakfast, mute lady came in and put away the bowl and chopsticks. Seeing that he was still distracted, she opened her mouth to tell him the truth, but held back in the end and only gently stroked his head.

"Mother …" Xie Jin grumbled, "Tell me, what should I do?"

mute lady looked at Xie Jin seriously while she shook her head, she put down her ironed clothes and sighed, then picked up her bowl and chopsticks and walked out.

Xie Jin hugged onto her clothes, and thought back to when Yue Ying was supporting him. Her hands were so soft, her skin was so delicate, and there was even a faint fragrance coming from her body.

Xie Jin closed her eyes as she recalled the time when she was with Yue Ying, she had her hands at the place where she had touched before.
