Yu Chou received some information, but he knew very well that even more secret information would only be received by Ouyang Baofeng, the commander of the northern border. After all, he was only a servant. Even though he was trusted by the lord, he had no official position and no qualifications to participate in the most confidential military plans.

He could only secretly pray for his master's and northern border every day. He deeply hated himself for being incompetent and unable to do more.

Today, he was summoned to see the Commander. He was slightly puzzled in his heart, why would the Commander send someone to secretly summon him here?

In the courtyard, a faint medicinal fragrance wafted about. There was no one present. Yu Chou was led to the entrance of the courtyard and asked to go in by himself to pay his respects to the Commander. He walked lightly to the foot of the stairs and bowed respectfully, "This servant is Yu Chou. I have come under orders to pay my respects to the commander in chief."

Even though the doors and windows were tightly shut, and the commander inside couldn't see him, he still acted as if he was before the commander, respectful and respectful.

"Enter."

His voice was light and low, without the slightest emotion. He bowed again, "As you command."

Yu Chou carefully pushed open the door and walked in. He closed the door behind him and stepped into the inner room. He bowed his head and knelt down immediately when he saw the bottom of Yu Chou's snow-white robe. "Your servant Yu Chou greets the commander."

Ouyang Baofeng didn't say anything. He was half lying on the bed, and upon hearing Yu Chou's greeting, he slowly opened his eyes and calmly looked at this handsome young master. Yes, it could only be said that he had a grudge with his handsome appearance. Although he was a man, and was still kneeling on the ground with his beautiful figure and disposition that could not be compared to the wind, people still couldn't help but want to look at him and make him raise his head to see what kind of appearance such a beautiful man would have!

After a long while, Yu Chou didn't hear the commander in chief speak. He respectfully knelt on the ground and placed his hands on the ground. His forehead touched his hands as he waited for the commander's command.

"Raise your head."

"Yes."

Yu Chou slowly straightened his back, raised his head and slightly lowered his eyelids. One could only see that this Northern Frontier Great Commander had a chin as white as jade and a slender body that was half lying on top of him. He wore an extremely simple white robe with only his collar, cuffs, and bottom hem; it was embroidered with many snowflakes and without any other decorations.

"The passage of time makes people grow old, the wind, the frost and the sword are cold, and the fish are vengeful. You are no longer the appearance of someone who has just arrived at the northern border."

"Yes, this servant has been at the northern border for many years."

He could not figure out who this commander was. He could not figure out who was in the north. It was not his lord, but this commander, who was known as the 'Nine-tailed Fox'. No one would ever know what the commander would do, especially during a battle between two armies. No one would ever be able to figure out or guess how he would use his troops.

The reputation of the Wind Green Sky Battle God included the Northern Frontier Commander Ouyang Baofeng and half of his merit points!

"I remember that you're quite familiar with the Barbarian King of the Northern Region."

Yu Chou fiercely trembled and couldn't help but raise his head to look at Ouyang Baofeng. For so many years, no one ever brought up this matter again, even he himself had almost forgotten about it. He knew that the Barbarian King had led his forces into a personal army this time around. However, very few people knew of his relationship with the Barbarian King nowadays. The pain that had pressed into his heart for so many years, the endless humiliation and pain, had actually, tonight, been completely ripped apart in a single sentence from the great commander, a sentence that was as light as the wind and carried an incomparable amount of pain!

He didn't understand why the Commander suddenly brought up this matter. Could it be that the Commander wanted to warn him of something?

Or was it to remind him of how humiliating it was?

Or was it because they suspected him, but didn't have any ulterior motives?

Their gazes met. The commander's handsome face looked gentle and refined, and there was even a faint smile on it. However, Yu Chou's gaze only made contact with the commander's gaze before his heart shuddered and he lowered his head in reverence.

"This servant is stupid, I beg of the lord commander to instruct me, this servant will obey your orders."

As he spoke, he knocked his head against the ground and prostrated himself deeply in front of the bed. He could feel his body slightly trembling. It wasn't because he was afraid of the Commander, but because what the Commander said earlier caused him to recall an endless amount of humiliation and suffering, and he felt extremely inferior to himself!

This was because the Barbarian King had personally invaded the northern border. The memories and pain that he had suppressed with great difficulty were now being torn apart by his commander into bloody wounds!

"Yu Chou, you're a smart person. You know what I mean."

Yu Chou who was kneeling on the ground felt his forehead touch the cold and hard ground. His heart was in a mess, how could he understand the feelings of the Commander?

Moreover, apart from his lord, there was probably no one else who could understand this commander's intentions.

With a trembling voice, he said, "Commander, your servant is truly stupid. I will obey all your commands. I dare not disobey any of your commands even if I die."

"Sigh …"

Ouyang Baofeng let out a long sigh and said, "Stand up."

How could Yu Chou dare to get up? He still knelt on the ground and said, "Your servant dares not, and begs the commander to enlighten us."

"Go to the room next door, bathe and change, then come back to see me."

"Understood."

He then slowly stood up, bowed deeply, and stepped out of the door step by step. Then, he turned around and looked at the room next door. Bath and change? What did the commander mean?

Could it be that she wanted him to help her with her sleep …

He clenched his fists so tightly that Yu Chou did not dare to think of going down, nor did he want to go down. If the commander in chief really had such thoughts, he would not be able to resist at all. However, so many years had passed and the Commander hadn't even glanced at him once, so why would he have such thoughts at this very moment?

Yu Chou walked to the door of the room next door and stopped in his tracks. However, all these years, the esteemed commander didn't have any wives or concubines. Did he really like being a man?

His heart was in turmoil. After being by his lord's side for so many years, he had always been worried that his lord's name would be affected because of him. Someone was saying something. Fortunately, the Lord was like a God in the hearts of the civilians and soldiers of the Northern Frontier. No one ever said anything. He recalled that his Master and Commander had an unshakeable friendship since childhood, and even up until now, they didn't have any wives or concubines. Could it be that …

But who else was more clear on the matter of the Lord than him?

If there was anything, it would be the idea of Grand Commander Ouyang alone, and it had nothing to do with their lord!

Damn it, how could he dare? How could he think of his lord and commander like that?

Pushing the door open forcefully, he walked in. What was to come would not be hidden. He had already understood this point many years ago. It was better to follow the orders of the Commander. When he was bathing and changing his clothes in this room, he would think about it and perhaps understand something.

The order of the Great Commander Ouyang of the Northern Frontier was not to be disobeyed. The military order was like a mountain, and even the other four commanders could only comply with it. How could a lowly servant like him dare to violate the rules in the slightest?
