With his dusty hand, the ghost attached Gu Tinyan's forehead. The smell of gunpowder still permeated his nose.

As his stomach churned, Gu Liuyan couldn't help but lean forward slightly, until Ghost patted on her forehead with a gentle smile. With a voice that trembled from her injuries, he told her: "Take a deep breath, I'm fine. You must also ensure that my foster son is fine."

Ye Zichen took a deep breath, and did indeed feel some relief from the pain, but his stomach still felt a bit uncomfortable.

Fan Feng had completely handed over this small area to the two of them. There were soldiers guarding nearby — this time, if it wasn't for Gui Gui who first went up to kill the archer on the city wall, it would be very difficult for them to throw the Thunderfire Bomb inside.

Without Gu's groundwater strategy, they might have lost more than half.

The meritorious officials had their own advantages.

Fan Feng returned to Lai Xuan's side to report his orders. General Coldface merely glanced at the two men and raised his eyebrows. "We're not of high birth, so we can't possibly think about them in such a comprehensive manner. However, we can't possibly be brainless either. We can't even compare to a woman."

The other generals nodded their heads seriously. They didn't want to listen to a woman's advice every day either.

In this small place, Gu Pingyan calmed down a little and took off his jacket. He opened the medicine box on his waist: "Even if you want to tell me something, you don't need to get hurt. Just say it." Now, lie down! "

The pain in her waist and abdomen was difficult to ease. Even though Gu Pingyan's medical skills were outstanding, it was very difficult for him to use the precious hemp medicine in such a chaotic situation. There were also some wounds on the back of his shoulder, but they were all hidden under his black robe, causing his eyes to turn red.

With nimble hands and legs, Gu Daiyan was treating his wounds, and even her voice was choked with sobs: "I'm not going to die."

"If you die, I'll have nothing." Gui Gui sneered towards the azure blue sky, "The laughable thing is that after I left the Prince, I had no idea what I wanted to do. Only by following you did I feel like a human being."

Gu Liuyan had already forgotten how important he was to ghosts.

At that time, she was the one who had pulled the ghost out of the mansion and spent the last few days with the ghost on behalf of her mother, Madam Zou. Even now, the ghost was still following the orders of others.

He was more like a child attached to Gu Meiyan. He was ignorant of the affairs of the world and did not know where his future lay.

"If you die, Qing Qing will cry. Speaking of which, I rarely see that child cry." Gui Gui furrowed his brows in pain. The wound that was being sewn up was hurting so much that it caused him to lose even his consciousness.

"I know." Gu Danyan lowered his head: "I won't die."

Even if she died, she would find a foolproof solution.

But not now.

The scarlet jade could extend her life, she had enough time to take care of everything.

"Your highness must have owed the Jade Emperor money in his previous life when he met a woman like you." The ghost sucked in a breath of cold air as he saw Gu Pingyan stitch up his wound as if he was sewing clothes, which caused his scalp to go numb.

"Since you like your prince so much, why don't you marry yourself?" Gu Liuyan's elbow was pressed against his chest, preventing him from moving due to the pain.

His face was pale as he looked at her, "If I knew that you came to the battlefield with a big belly, would I have locked you up for two years?"

"He dares!" Gu Danyan suddenly lost his confidence. It seemed like two years wasn't impossible.

He watched as Gu Pingyan took out the thin cloth from the medicine box to bandage his wound and continued to speak: "Oh right, I also received the news earlier, it seems like Prince has sent troops to find you …" "It hurts!"

The wound suddenly tightened as the ghost fell to the ground with a pale face. It had no life left in it.

Gu Liuyan's hair also hit his face, and he said angrily: "When did you do this!?" How do you know? "

"You said so. Intelligence is power. Of course I have to learn a little." In order to prevent Gu Pingyan from harming him again, he quickly confessed, "You don't know how many things and letters the Prince sends to the imperial palace every month, and he even told his wife about it in great detail."

No wonder they didn't complain to Duan Chengxuan back then.

But when he thought about it carefully, it was only good that they had returned for a year or two. Could it be that Duan Chengxuan really did not stop sending gifts to him every month?

His heart was slightly shaken, but Gu Mingyan's men did not stop there. They forced him to beg for mercy and helped him to sit up, leaning against a fallen stone wall. "What is he trying to do by sending troops?"

"I don't know …" The ghost rubbed the tip of his nose, his face full of innocence.

Gu Danyan had nothing to say, so he could only let the ghost rest for a while. He sat quietly to the side, listening to the crying sounds and the doctors shouting, but Gu Danyan was rarely calm.

Perhaps it was because she trusted Duan Chengxuan too much, or perhaps she really didn't put him in her heart.

Other than Duan Cheng Xuan's actions in the imperial court and the military, she had never taken the initiative to send anyone to investigate the rest of the matters.

However, every time she thought of Duan Chengxuan accompanying her and giving birth to a child, she would suddenly break out in a cold sweat, hugging herself with only her two arms until a soldier brought her some bread and warm water. "Let me send you to your room."

"Leave it for someone more useful." Gu Danyan took the item and kicked the ghost awake. Then he said, "Please help me inform Lai Xuan. In the future, I will be at the back to help with some ideas."

"Yes." The soldier left quickly.

After the ghost recovered, Gu Daiyan sat beside him and fed him: "When we went into the city, did you see anything strange?"

"Such as?" Phantom raised his eyebrows.

"For example, is there any place where the defense is weaker? Or is it that some people seem to have intentionally exposed their shortcomings to you?" Gu Danyan leaned on his side and lowered his voice, "A city was captured in just two days. This is unbelievable. The enemy had proposed a negotiation, but the reinforcements couldn't arrive."

"I saw Lai Xuan's men easily capture that area in the southwest corner of the stronghold. Those people there also surrendered the fastest. Our Thunderfire Bombs were all thrown towards the markets in the southern corner of the stronghold. However, the corners in the southwest area were almost …"

"It seems like Ai Yan is basically giving up the city. He might send people to outflank us in the next step." Gu Danyan stuffed the ripped biscuit into the ghost's mouth, "But I'm not sure. You've been wandering around the military camp and found someone to trust. Tell this to Lai Xuan and pass Fan Feng."

"Is Fan Feng not trustworthy?" It was strange.

"Trusted, but not intelligence or guesses. If there were more spies, they would definitely pay attention to Fan Feng's actions." Gu Danyan lowered his voice even more.
