Han Xiao followed Chou Xin and Bai Feng back to the barracks. After Han Xiao told Bai Feng to go back to his place, he followed Chou Xin directly to Jiang Yao's tent, only to discover that Xiao Hu was also there.

"General?" After Han Xiao saw Xiaoxia, he was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Xiaoxia would also be with Jiang Yao.

"I was wondering who it was. It turns out that our Crown Prince has returned." Jiang Yao said in dissatisfaction after seeing Han Xiao.

Hearing the unhappiness in Jiang Yao's tone, Han Xiao smiled apologetically and said, "Commander Jiang went out to cultivate recently and didn't inform the army that Han Xiao is in the wrong."

"I dare not. His Highness the Crown Prince is willing to do whatever he wants. This general does not have any authority to interfere." Jiang Yao raised his head and said.

"Jiang Yao, didn't you just say that you'd be fine? Why did you become like this the moment you saw the crown prince?" Seeing Jiang Yao's attitude, Xiao Wei said with a frown on his face.

"This lowly general has always maintained this attitude. If the army is unwilling, we can leave immediately. Moreover, we can also take away His Highness the crown prince, saving him from staying here and suffering." Jiang Yao said with a cold snort.

Han Xiao couldn't help but frown when he saw Jiang Yao's sudden terrible attitude towards him. Jiang Yao's attitude toward him before wasn't good, but it hadn't reached this degree either. Just what had happened to make Jiang Yao's attitude toward him suddenly become this bad? Thinking this, Han Xiao lifted his head to look at Xiaoxia, but he only shook his head and didn't say anything.

"I wonder if Jiang You Jun did not report back yesterday when Han Xiao returned?" Han Xiao asked.

"I don't have any. Why would I blame His Highness the Crown Prince? Alright, I still have other matters to attend to. If there's nothing important, I'll leave with His Highness the Crown Prince." Jiang Yao waved his hand and turned around, obviously not willing to talk to Han Xiao any longer.

Seeing Jiang Yao acting like this, Xiao Wei could only sigh and bring Han Xiao out, while Chou Xin also saw Han Xiao and the rest walking after them.

As soon as he left Jiang Yao's tent, Han Xiao wanted to ask Xiao Wei what was wrong with Jiang Yao. However, before he could open his mouth, Xiao Wei opened his mouth and said, "Did His Highness' friend come to find you?"

"Yes, but …" Before Han Xiao could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Xiaoxiao.

"Then your highness the crown prince will accompany your friends for the time being. There's nothing important in the army." Xiaoxia said.

Hearing Xiao Wei say this, Han Xiao couldn't help but frown. Xiao Wei's intention was to chase him out of the Xiao family. Just what had happened for him to make such a decision? Obviously it hadn't happened yesterday.

"Does the General's Army want Han Xiao to leave the Xiao family's army?" Han Xiao frowned and asked.

"His Highness the Crown Prince did not mean that." Xiaoxia said.

"I remember that on the first day I came to the Xiao family's army, I said that I was only a commander of a small army, Han Xiao, and not the crown prince of the Yun Ming Dynasty." Han Xiao frowned.

"But in the end, the Crown Prince is still the Crown Prince. This is a fact that cannot be changed by anyone." Xiaoxia said.

Han Xiao could not help but frown and ask, "What happened to the army? Why do I feel that both you and Jiang You Jun's attitudes are very strange today?"

"Nothing much, His Highness the crown prince is overthinking it." Xiaoxia shook his head and said.

"You can't hide it from me, Great Unification Army. Did something happen in the Imperial City?" Did something happen to royal father? " He glanced at Xiao Qian and said hesitantly, "Is it my grandfather? Did something happen?"

He looked at Han Xiao and said with gritted teeth, "This morning, I received a letter from the people of the Imperial City saying that the marshal, the marshal, died suddenly last night. After the marshal died, the entire Xiao Mansion was burnt to ashes in one night. The Xiao Mansion is done for, and the Xiao Family Army is almost finished as well." For them, Xiao Ba Ya was the backbone of the Xiao family's army. Even if Xiao Ba Ya was not in the army, his influence was greater than everyone else in the army, and the reason why the four armies were united was all because of Xiao Ba Ya. Otherwise, just Xiao Wei alone would not be able to suppress the three armies outside of Benin.

"Grandfather, he died?" Half a day later, Han Xiao was finally able to digest this news. He looked with disbelief at Xiao Wei, wanting to see what flaws he had on his face. Unfortunately, aside from grief and despair, he couldn't see anything else.

"Yes, the marshal is dead." Xiao Wei said with grief and indignation.

"Impossible. Before I came, my grandfather was still well. How could he have suddenly died? Moreover, why did the Xiao Family mansion burn down the moment my grandfather died. There must be some sort of secret behind this." Han Xiao tried his best to calm himself down, but discovered that even though he looked very calm, his hands were shaking. It was only now that he realized that death was truly a terrifying thing, no matter how high his cultivation was, he could not escape the clutches of death.

I also thought that way, but the spy in the Imperial City saw the body of the marshal with his own eyes, so there's no mistake, but I didn't expect that when I told him about the deaths of the four marshal, the three of them didn't want to avenge the marshal, but they were thinking about the marshal's position. Xiaoxiao said with grief and indignation. She clenched her fists tightly, wishing that she could throw out a punch.

Han Xiao, on the other hand, became silent. The reason why the Xiao family could unite was all because of Xiao Ba Ya's ability to lead. If Xiao Wei alone was not enough to unite the Xiao family, then wouldn't the people who killed Xiao Ba Ya also see this point?

"General, how many people know about my grandfather's death?" Han Xiao asked.

"I only told the Four Forces, but I don't think we'll need the entire army to know that." Xiao Wei bitterly said.

"Then what qualifications does the commander of the Xiao family have to become the commander of the army?" Han Xiao asked.

The other important point is to make the entire army obey him. Unfortunately, right now, I can only make the people from the Azure Dragon Army obey. The other three armies normally listen to me but still care about the marshal's face. At this time, he was trembling like he was a loser. He no longer had the high and mighty spirits that he usually had; all he had was depression and despair.

Seeing that Xiao Xianzi didn't know what to say, Han Xiao shook his head and said, "Since Da Jun's grandfather is already dead, we should think of a way to stabilize our morale and prevent the Xiao family's troops from dispersing. I will also go back and find my friends to think about this." With that, Han Xiao patted Xiao Wei's shoulder and turned around to leave.

Walking out of the army camp, Han Xiao's mood had always been complicated. He always felt that Xiao Ba Ya's death was too sudden, as if it had all been set beforehand, and he didn't know when it started, but he felt that everything he did seemed to be done according to someone else's plan. Every step he took was planned by someone else, as if the current him was stuck in a huge trap for a long time.
