Thanks to Xie Qingrong and Xuanyuan Chen bringing the metazoan flower back, Emperor Xuanyuan's body was gradually recovering. Although it wasn't as healthy as when he was young, it was still much harder than before.
The imperial study room's memorials were piling up, but fortunately, with the help of the imperial physician, the Emperor Xuanyuan was able to inspect them.
Therefore, Xuanyuan Chen and Xie Qingrong planned to set off immediately to the Mo Bei in case Wu Huan's army pressed down on their territory again.
They travelled day and night, unhindered by rain or shine.
The eleventh month's Mo Bei had already entered its winter months. The north wind whistled, blowing cold wind across Xuanyuan Chen's and Xie Qingrong's face, bringing about waves of piercing pain.
"Looks like it's going to snow Mo Bei in a few days." Xuanyuan Chen looked at the dark gray sky and muttered.
Ever since he had returned to the capital, it had been a very long time since he had seen the snowy Mo Bei.
Xie Qingrong followed Xuanyuan Chen's gaze to the grey sky, and sighed: "Snow? I haven't seen snow in a long time. "
In her previous life, she seemed to have trained herself to become a killing machine just to complete a mission. She had never been able to take a good look at the colourful world.
Only by chance did he get the chance to see a heavy snowfall.
Crystal white snowflakes danced in the sky, covering everything in silver. All of the darkness and filth seemed to be covered by the white snow.
"Let's go, General Xie and the rest are still waiting for us in the army camp." Xuanyuan Chen held onto the reins, turned his horse around and headed towards the camp.
Xie Qingrong was on par with him.
Inside the main tent of the Mo Bei military camp, Xie Jing, Lin An and the other generals stood outside the main tent, waiting for Xuanyuan Chen and his group to arrive.
Seeing Xuanyuan Chen's travel worn look, Xie Jing immediately signaled a small soldier standing beside him with his eyes, and got him to pull Xuanyuan Chen's horse into the stable to take care of it.
However, there was a man dressed in simple clothing standing beside Xuanyuan Chen.
Xie Jing looked carefully, it was his daughter, Xie Qingrong, who was dressed like a man.
A frown immediately appeared on his face. How could a man appear in the army camp?
Just as he was about to berate, Xuanyuan Chen reached out his hand to stop him from speaking, laughed, and said: "General Xie, I will give you an explanation for this matter later. This King has more important matters to discuss with the generals. "
Knowing that Xuanyuan Chen had something important to discuss with a few generals who were holding powerful weapons, Xie Qingrong completely understood. After all, other than her cheap father Xie Jing and the Lin Family's father, the other generals did not recognize him.
Of course she wouldn't be able to relax and let him stay in the main account. Moreover, she had another reason to come to the Mo Bei's army camp.
Seeing that, she whispered a few words beside Xuanyuan Chen's ear, seeing that Xuanyuan Chen nodded his head in agreement, she let a small soldier lead the way, heading towards the tents of the injured soldiers.
"Are you a doctor?" The soldier asked curiously as he pointed the way in front.
"I just know a little about medicine." It would be better to do what we can for everyone if we are bored in the military. " Xie Qingrong said indifferently, she was not usually a person who would give too many explanations, nor was she such a kind-hearted person.
It was only because she needed to quickly gain the trust of the soldiers in the army that she could stand shoulder to shoulder with Xuanyuan Chen.
Hearing Xie Qingrong's words, the little soldier was excited, and the look in her eyes became more fervent.
There were only three military doctors in the military camp, and they had too many monks and too few meat. Although in the past few years, there had never been a war in Mo Bei, and the three military doctors were already bored to death staying in the army camp.
But no one could guarantee when the war would start. One more medic, and the injured would be treated.
At this time, the little soldier brought Xie Qingrong to the tent to get to know the three military doctors.
On the other side, Xuanyuan Chen was already seated on the main seat. On his right hand side was a pile of documents that were piled up high, like a small mountain.
On the left hand side, there was a cup of green tea, in it was only hot water, there was no tea, the Mo Bei was bitter and bitter, but Xuanyuan Chen did not care.
He gently lifted the tea lid and a hot steam rose in spirals. A mouthful of hot water was placed on his stomach. His stomach felt as if it was being warmed as it became boiling hot.
He placed the teacup on the left side of his chest and curled his lips. However, the corners of his eyes did not have a trace of a smile as he calmly said: "Let's talk about what you think of Wu Huan's withdrawal this time around."
Although Xuanyuan Chen had long understood their intentions behind all this, he still wanted to see whether or not the group of generals had lost their sharpness and insight due to not having fought in war for many years.
The few generals in the main account fell into silence. They had previously analyzed Wu Huan's true intentions, although they felt that Wu Huan was only trying to achieve his goals and trying to deceive people, they did not dare to guess Wu Huan's true intentions.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the main account was depressed and tense.
Lin Mu coughed lightly, breaking the awkward atmosphere, he took the initiative to stand out and reported: "Reporting to Your Highness. This subject suspects that Wu Huan has other intentions behind his actions, although Wu Huan has already withdrawn, we have to take precautions. If we slack off because of this, one day, Wu Huan will attack with a large army, and the consequences will be unimaginable. "
Xuanyuan Chen squinted his eyes, raised a finger and knocked it on the table: "What Young General Lin says is reasonable, do any other people have any other ideas?"
After waiting for a long time, a general finally shakily stood up from the back. Although Xuanyuan Chen had restrained his aura, this general was still a little afraid of Xuanyuan Chen.
When he thought of the idea he had in mind, he gritted his teeth and stood up, reporting, "Your Highness. This general thought that Wu Huan sending two hundred thousand troops was not only to pressure the Heavenly Sage. This lowly general suspects that they have something else in mind. "
"Oh?" Xuanyuan Chen replied with a question: "What do you think they want?"
The little general swallowed his saliva and spoke of his own thoughts: "The place where Wu Huan's army has pressed down is an extremely close gorge, this gorge allows them to successfully ambush the Mo Bei from behind. He could also attack Yongzhou City in one fell swoop. If Yongzhou City City is destroyed, Wu Huan's army will go straight to the Heavenly Saint's heart, all the way to the south, towards the capital, with unstoppable force. "
Xuanyuan Chen squinted his eyes, so no one could see the killing intent and coldness that flashed past his eyes, but Lin Mu who had been by his side for a long time could sense that Xuanyuan Chen's current mood was not very good.
This thought, Xie Qingrong had also mentioned it before, but he still kept it in mind. There were so many loyal soldiers and generals, yet no one could see the true purpose of Wu Huan.
Other than this general that he had never seen before, was this group of people really just there to eat?
Xuanyuan Chen's entire body released waves of cold Qi, his face that was not angry had a hint of anger, and the general below quietly lowered his head.
After the general finished speaking his thoughts, he kept his head between his arms like a quail. Sensing Xuanyuan Chen's anger, he couldn't help but feel some lingering fear.
After all, this was just his guess, and he shouldn't have revealed it to anyone.
