Shen Youhuang's face turned green when she heard these words.

She hated how she couldn't seize the authority of the Southern Ning Army, but now, she had let this little girl take over the army! Extreme rage!

Shen You Huang had nothing to say to this. He could only put on the airs of a military overseer and snorted coldly:

"Enough of your rubbish, quickly hand over the enemy captives. Father appointed this king as the military overseer, so this king naturally has the duty to report the military intelligence to Father. What is the purpose of stopping you all time and time again?"

Shen Ling Jue laughed lightly: "Fourth brother, you have always been at the back, I don't know the details of the front lines. This report of the military situation is better explained by this duke personally writing a report. "

The underlying meaning of his words was sarcasm that Shen You had never led the charge.

Shen Youhuang was about to persist when footsteps sounded outside the hall. A soldier ran in hastily, not looking at Shen Youhuang at all as he reported to Shen Lingjue and Feng Ning Yan.

"Reporting to Prince Yu and the Young Marshal, another carriage has arrived at the direction of the retreating Southern Wilderness. But that car … "It's a little abnormal."

"Unnormal?" Feng Ningyan asked in surprise, "It's about time for some lobbyists to arrive. What's wrong with a carriage?"

The soldier replied, "It is... It's like the bed of a woman's boudoir. "

When Feng Ning Yan heard this, she couldn't help but smile, extremely curious.

Everyone walked out of the meeting room and looked towards the southern border.

In the dim sunlight, a carriage slowly approached from the top of the Thousand Creations Bridge.

It was as if there was a stepping bed in the carriage, and the curtains were colorful.

The six pillars were covered in gold and jade. Beads fell from all sides, and the sound of jade beads falling could be heard from afar amidst the mist.

The carriage was being pulled by four horses from the Southern Wilderness. Two teams of guards were following the carriage. They were all wearing military uniforms and had solemn expressions on their faces.

From the looks of it, the newcomer must be someone of status in the Southern Wilderness, and a woman at that.

According to the Southern Frontier etiquette system, the four carriages adorned with gold and jade, with personal guards, is the royal family's only use of etiquette.

Feng Ningyan came to a sudden realization, but her heart was filled with doubt. Someone from the Southern Wilderness' royal family had actually obtained the news of Duan Liushao's defeat so quickly and rushed over to the Southern Yong Pass?

When the carriage came to a halt, a servant girl jumped down from the carriage. She then slowly got off, holding the servant girl's hand. She raised her head and looked in their direction.

This woman was dressed in the clothes of a southern tribe. Her clothes were gorgeous, and her face was elegant and beautiful.

After receiving Shen Lingjue's approval, the city guards set down the suspension bridge and let the woman cross it.

By the time she arrived, Shen Lingjue, Feng Ning Yan, Shen You Huang and the rest had already left the city.

The well-dressed young girl quietly waited until they had reached the city gates before slowly stepping forward. She lightly smiled, then raised her voice and said: "Southern Wilderness Crown Princess Duan Huanyin greets Prince Yu, Prince Cheng, and Young Marshal Feng."

Seeing how humble she was, Shen Ling Jue and Feng Ning Yan couldn't help but look at each other.

Feng Ning Yan took a few steps forward, and supported him as she said humbly, "So it's Princess Hua Yin. There's no need to be so courteous."

Not to mention that Duan Huayin had definitely come to represent the Southern Wilderness. Feng Ningyan admired her courage and felt that she was very different from her brother, Duan Liushao.

Duan Hua Yin thanked Feng Ning Yan, stood up, and spoke in a neither humble nor haughty manner: "Hua Yin originally came to visit Big Brother, but was informed of his defeat and capture, so he hurriedly rushed over. I sincerely request that Your Highness Duke of Yu and Young Marshal Feng consider the importance of their friendship, and release this lowly crown prince and the general of the Southern Wilderness."

He really was a lobbyist.

Feng Ningyan pondered. If the Southern Wilderness had sent someone just now to negotiate peace and the Great Yue State had restrained them, it would have been easy for them to throw Duan Liushao, the hot potato in their hands, back to the Southern Wilderness.

But now that Shen Youhuang was biting the bullet and the Southern Wilderness' princess had come forward to request for their release, how could Shen Youhuang possibly agree?

She looked at Shen Lingjue, only to see that he was looking at Shen You Huang.

From the moment that Shen You Huang had stood up, her gaze had been wandering around her body, and her eyes were as bright as fire.

This Princess Hua Yin's appearance was slightly inferior to Feng Ning Yan's. Although she didn't have a heroic spirit, she had a delicate and charming appearance. She was also a rare beauty.

When Shen Youhuang saw her posture, she knew that this woman was a good dancer. Her tall and straight body and soft, boneless arms were proof of this.

He liked this kind of girl, moreover she was the enemy's lobbyist, so he didn't care about her identity as a princess. His gaze fell on Duan Huayin without any concealment.

Shen Ling Jue saw that Shen You Huang was looking at Duan Hua Yin, so he looked at Feng Ning Yan and gave her a sly look.

Feng Ningyan smiled and thought to herself, This Shen You Huang is really a lustful person, but isn't this just the right thing to do?

She then opened her mouth and said, "Duan LiuShao killed my soldiers, broke through my Southern Yong Pass, and committed a heinous crime. Your Highness should know that we cannot easily let the tigers return to the mountain. However, there's some sense in Your Highness mentioning that we have a close relationship. Your Highness King Yu and I do not mind listening to your brilliant opinion. "

Duan Hua Yin looked at the ruined city gate tower and revealed a guilty expression as he apologetically said: "Big brother is still young and young, and was set up by a few generals of the imperial court, which is what made him such a big mistake. However, the Southern Wilderness and the Grand Moon existed side by side, just like the upper and lower teeth. The benevolent side of Prince Yu and the young commander-in-chief will definitely be able to forgive his recklessness. "

Hearing those words, Shen Ling couldn't help but be astounded.

Initially, they thought that she was as impulsive as Duan Liushao, but they never expected her to be not only courteous and graceful, but also full of wisdom, causing them to feel as if they were bathed in the spring breeze.

This flash of surprise caught Feng Ning Yan's eye. She couldn't help but frown and flatten her mouth. She felt a little satisfied in her heart.

Alright then, Shen Lingjue, what do you mean by 'deep in love'? All your life, isn't meeting a beauty the same as other men? Do you want to look at her a few more times?

However, although she was a bit jealous, what she was worried about right now was how to broker peace and how to stop Shen Youhuang from interfering.

She cleared her throat and said solemnly, "Isn't it too much of a lack of sincerity for the princess to ask us to release her with just a word? Is this the attitude you ought to have if you beg for permission from the Southern Wilderness' crown prince? "

Duan Hua Yin lowered her gaze as if she had made up her mind. After a moment, she raised her head and her eyes became firm as she smiled.

"Hua Yin is willing to help in exchange for the Crown Prince and the generals of the Southern Wilderness."

She had always been beautiful, but now that her smile had blossomed, it was like the blossoming of spring. There was a tinge of flirtatiousness in her eyes, making Shen Youhuang's eyes widen.

A marriage alliance?!

Feng Ning Yan was startled. She didn't understand what Duan Huanyin meant and couldn't help but glance at Shen Ling Jue and Shen You Huang beside her.

This princess was willing to marry someone, she didn't say who she was going to marry.

There was an emperor in the court, Shen Chenxuan, and there were three young princes of Grand Moon. Although marrying no one would be unfair to her, from her gentle appearance, it was definitely not a good thing to say that a beautiful woman would bring trouble.

Feng Ning Yan couldn't help but frown and didn't answer.

Shen Ling Jue's expression became serious as well. His thoughts were the same as Feng Ning Yan's, he didn't quite agree with marriage.

It was understandable for a princess to be intimate with her brother in order to save him, but Duan Huayin was definitely not an ordinary vase.

She had the blood of the people of the Southern Wilderness. If she were to be placed in the Great Yue's harem, then even if she gave birth to a child, she would still have half of the blood of the people of the Southern Wilderness.

However, Shen You Huang suddenly spoke up before Shen Ling Jue and Feng Ning Yan could reject Duan Hua's suggestion.

He spoke with righteousness, "Duan Liushao rashly sent troops to invade our borders and killed countless of our soldiers. Now that he has been captured and defeated, he is an important criminal. How can a woman like you exchange for him?"
