At night, the chirping of insects could be heard from afar. Helian Manqiu was lying beside Gan Jianxuan. She turned her head to look at him under the moonlight that shone through the gaps in the tent curtains.

After looking at her for a long time, he found that she had slept soundly after having been carried by the horse in her arms earlier in the day. Now, however, she was unable to fall asleep. Listening to Gan Zhixuan's even and gentle breathing, it was as if his thoughts were surging. If he could stay by Gan Zhixuan's side forever, would he be able to discover his secret?

"Have you seen enough?"

"No, you're so good-looking, how can I see enough?"

He replied with a chuckle, leaned his head on Gan Jianxuan's shoulder, and said: "Was my dispatch of troops in a hasty and hasty manner?"

"That's not it, even if you don't send troops, the King of Fresh Breeze would still send people to attack the Military Region. It's just that you were a bit too careless, how did you dare enter so deep into the territory, you didn't inform me beforehand. "Master, look, in your heart, you have never treated me as your master."

"My lord, your words are too serious. This is the first time that I have led your troops to war. There are many mistakes that I have failed to consider, please forgive me lord." This lowly general will not dare to act rashly in the future.

"Do you know fear? This lord will see that you are not afraid of my punishment. "

"This lowly general is extremely terrified. In the future, I will follow by Master's side and never leave him. This way, I won't make any mistakes."

Helian Manqiu muttered as she moved closer to Gan Jianxuan, sticking closely to his side.

"Aren't you big enough?"

Gan Yuxuan did not open his eyes as he coldly asked this question. Helian Manqiu twisted her body: "I always feel that it's safer to be closer to my lord. My lord, how will the old man handle this matter?"

"Under the imperial edict, you will receive an additional rank. This old man offers his congratulations."

"This general doesn't like the sour words my lord has said. This general doesn't care about anything that this old man seals me down." This lowly general only wants to know if I can keep Master by my side in the future, just like right now. "

While muttering to herself in a low voice, she once again approached Gan Jianxuan, pressing her body against his, and resting her head on his shoulder.

Gan Yuxuan stretched out his arm and she automatically placed her head back on the bed. She wrapped her arms around his waist and crawled into his embrace.

A light chuckle came out of Gan Zhixuan's mouth as a big hand brushed past her hair, "I've never seen a leatherless girl like you throwing yourself at me. Do you really want to marry me and become my woman?"

"I don't want it. I don't know how many beauties there are in the Lord's Mansion. I don't want to add flowers to the Lord's beauty." As long as I am the same as I am now, I will follow you wherever the Lord goes to. "

"You have always stayed by your grandpa's side to be a great general and to fight in the battlefield. Now that you are only 15 years old, do you think about the future?"

"In the future, this lowly general will always stay by my lord's side, unless my lord despises my stupidity and incompetence." In the future, this lowly general will always stay by my lord's side, unless my lord despises my stupidity and incompetence.

"You sharp-tongued girl, after a few years, you won't say such things. At that time, even if I wanted to keep you, you would have to run away."

"If that's the case, it'll all depend on my lord's ability. Could my lord be so unconfident that he won't be able to keep me after two years?"

Helian Manqiu's eyes were serene and deep as she was covered up in the night. She was willing to close her eyes, and she did not see Helian Manqiu's gaze in the slightest.

"Well said, how should your elder brother be placed? Do you know what's written on the Empress' imperial decree this time? "

"Please advise me, Master."

"Intentionally bestowing a marriage, giving Helian Manqiu to the crown prince as his side concubine."

"What?"

Hearing Gan Jianxuan's words, Helian Manqiu almost jumped out of his embrace and got wrapped in his arms. She laughed lightly as she opened her eyes and looked at Helian Manqiu. This girl was still a little too inexperienced, so she couldn't help but become impatient after hearing these words.

"Calm down. Lie still."

Lying there furiously, he took a deep breath of the aroma that was on Xuan Fang's body. Had this lord started to have feelings for her?

"I wonder, is this the old fellow's idea, or the old demoness's?"

"Old witch?"

Gan Yuxuan felt that this phrase was very new, so he asked with a smile.

"The old hag's queen is naturally the old hag."

"The empress is still young, but she's a famous beauty in the Great Hengkong Empire. If the empress heard your words, she'll definitely smash your sharp mouth to pieces."

"No matter what, she is an old demoness, an old demoness. My Lord, I will depend on you for everything."

He placed his face against Gan Jianxuan's chest and wrapped his arms around him. If there was a Lord Wind, you go and block him. If there was a Lord Wind, you go and save him. If there was a Lord Evil, you go and eat him.

Helian Manqiu's lips curved into a charming smile. She was laughing in a proud manner. Sure enough, this man could be used to fend off the wind and rain, and to deal with all the difficult problems.

"You're smiling like that, are you scheming against me?"

She fainted. Did he see her smile even though it was so dark?

Helian Manqiu hurriedly changed the smile on her face into an enchanting and enchanting one, as well as fawning on electricity generation: "My lord, I only think that when I have my lord's protection in the future and am by my side, I will be in a particularly good mood. As long as you have my orders, this lowly general shall await your orders! "

After saying this, even Man Qiu felt guilty. This obviously made Gan Danxuan the gun, but he didn't know if this man with the black crystal heart had already seen through her tricks or not.

"Hmph, don't you know that you want to hide behind this grandpa's back and let this grandpa protect you from the wind and rain?"

"My lord, this general doesn't dare."

"What else do you not dare to do? Even the emperor and esteemed empress have dared to slander and disrespect this lord behind his back, but I don't know what sort of attitude you have behind his back."

"My lord, how can that be the same? My father was killed by the imperial government." Countless of soldiers in the military region had died because of this royal decree. Does the Lord think that by giving this lowly general some benefits, this lowly general will be deeply grateful towards the imperial government? "

"Don't say those words again in the future, or I'll never forgive you."

Helian Manqiu put her face close to Gan Jianxuan's shoulder and whispered: "These words, this general only said a few words in your ear. I would absolutely not dare to say them to a second person, to provoke disaster for my lord. That old fellow and his bastards and sons, even if they were to show grace to this lowly general, this lowly general would not be moved in the slightest. "

"Are you making use of this opportunity to express your thoughts to me?"

"These words are from the bottom of my heart."

"Who dares to disobey the imperial edict?"

"This lowly general does not believe that my lord has no way of dealing with it after getting the edict. I'm afraid my lord should have made the arrangements long ago. This general is only worrying blindly about it."

"What do you think I should do?"

Upon hearing Helian Manqiu's words, Gan Zhixuan's pupils darkened. If he had known earlier, he would have thought that she was extremely talented and that she had used a weapon like a god. "She knew that she had to prepare for a rainy day, so she arranged everything in a neat and orderly manner. She made a prompt decision without the slightest trace of panic.

After learning of the news in Mo Gan City, she did not act rashly. Instead, she made the arrangements step by step.

From Helian Manqiu to the outside world, although it could not be said that every single action was in his eyes, it could not be hidden from him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to bring his men to Mo Gan City in time to save her.

Gan Yuxuan still didn't expect that after following her for so many years, she still couldn't see through his thoughts. Those trusted aides who couldn't guess what he meant didn't know what he was going to do next, but she had already said it out loud. It was as if she already knew his heart.

"This lowly general does not know what arrangements the lord has made to obey the lord's commands."

"Tell me, how do you think this grandpa did it?"

"It can't be that Master doesn't have any arrangements, right? If that's the case, then this lowly general will truly be shocked. "

"I don't know if your words are true or not."

"My lord, this lowly general's heart is extremely divided. If my lord doesn't believe me, why don't I just accept it and let this lowly general be my lord's woman?"

"How dare you!"

The first time he lost control of his emotions like this, it was because of what the little girl had said.

"Haha …"

Helian Manqiu laughed softly as she whispered in his ear, "Don't say that I was willing to follow my lord and have admired my lord for so many years. How come my lord doesn't believe me?"

"Put away your flattery and take out your truth. If you dare to use these words against me again, let me teach you a lesson."

He purposely let his body tremble in Gan Yuxuan's arms as he spoke in a wronged tone, "My lord, this is how it is. My lord's reputation in the Northern Frontier has been unknown for a long time. Right now, the lives of this general and the people of the Army Region are all grasped in the Lord's hands. Only this one, even if I have great ability, I will not be able to get out of Lord's hands. "

"That's the truth. Sleep."

"My lord, if you don't tell me what you've done, I might not be able to fall asleep."

"Shut up and go to sleep. If not, you can ride on your own tomorrow. I'll see if you can sleep at night!"

Hearing these words, Helian Manqiu hurriedly shut her mouth. Lying in Gan Jianxuan's embrace, she closed her eyes, unwilling to say another word.

A hint of a smile was plastered on his lips. He realized that when he was with this girl, he would smile more and more, and his mood would instantly lighten.

Would she be willing to be his woman?

Suppressing this thought, he decided that she was still a little too young for her age. There was no need for him to think so much into it. However, if she wanted him to be responsible, he would not reject her offer. In the end, it was him who saw and touched her daughter's innocent body.

"I want to be like this, always by your side!"

As if she was talking in a dream, Helian Manqiu murmured to herself as she stared blankly for a moment. Her arms tightened slightly.

A sudden clap of thunder broke the silence of the night, echoing in his ears for a long time.

The golden snakes danced in the air, and smoke permeated the air. The people beside her all fell down, closing their eyes and reopening them. The intense pain caused her to wake up.

"Chief, we don't have many people left. Should we retreat?"

"There's only one person left, and he must complete the mission as well!"

She heard her own hoarse and soft voice, trembling as she touched her hand. Borrowing the moonlight and the gun's flame, she could see that her hand was already soaked in blood. Her camouflage clothes had also turned dark red, and in the darkness, she couldn't see how much blood had come out.
