Xiao Shaorong followed behind Xiao Jiu'an and was about to enter, but upon hearing Xiao Jiu'an's words, he was immediately shocked and stammered out, "It's, it's the wangfei, the wangfei slept for a whole day."

Dammit, how could he have forgotten that the prince had such a strong sense of territory that he didn't like strangers entering his territory.

Yes, it's the wangfei. She didn't sleep for the whole night and fainted in the morning due to exhaustion. Doctor Zhuge said that the wangfei's body is too weak to move and needs to rest properly. Xiao Shaorong prayed in his heart, praying that Xiao Jiu'an would let him go on account of him fainting.

"Did Beichen and Tianshu make their move?" Hearing that, Xiao Shaorong could guess.

"Yes, he's out of the city. Send people to keep an eye on him. South Jin Zhao is the same. Let the people from the Dao Palace keep a close eye on him." Beichen, Tianshu, could also be considered as someone. After last night's failure, he did not stay in the city nor did he look for the Feng Family.

"Yes, Your Highness." When he mentioned Nan Jin Zhao, Xiao Shaorong felt an inexplicable sense of guilt.

He really didn't dare to tell the Duke about the relationship between Nan Jin Zhao and his wife. If he said that Ji Yunkai would not get any good results, he wouldn't get any benefits either.

"You can scram now!" Xiao Jiu'an frowned in disgust. He did not like the smell of the food in the air, but he did not like the smell.

Xiao Jiu'an walked into the room and caught a whiff of the faint fragrance of the flowers and plants, immediately relaxing his eyebrows. Even the messy bed did not affect his good mood, it even made him want to sleep.

Last night, he had not slept for most of the night, and today he did not stop. He was indeed tired.

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Jiu'an took off his outer robes and laid on the bed …

The entire room was filled with Ji Yunkai's Qi, it was faint, as though it had the power to calm people down, Xiao Jiu'an slowly closed his eyes and allowed himself to fall into deep sleep.

It had been a long time since he had slept so peacefully!

Ji Yunkai busied himself for the entire night, and Xiao Jiu'an slept through the night. To him, this was something that had never happened before.

Ever since he could remember, it had been difficult for him to sleep at night. Even during the time when he was poisoned, he could not sleep deeply.

In the army camp, there were always people patrolling back and forth, making it impossible for him to sleep soundly. This was the first time he slept so peacefully, enjoying the satisfaction of being able to sleep well.

"Perhaps, This King should consider raising an additional person." If Ji Yunkai had an aura that could let him feel at ease and not betray him, he wouldn't mind raising Ji Yunkai for the rest of his life. It wasn't as if the Prince Yanbei's Mansion couldn't afford to keep it.

Xiao Jiu'an who had slept soundly still remained high and cold, but there was less of the cold indifference of someone who stayed a thousand miles away from them. Anyone with eyes could see that he was in an extremely good state.

In the morning, when Xiao Shaorong saw that he was energetic, he was truly shocked, "Your Highness, today you …" It was rare for him not to have a dark expression on his face.

It had to be known, Xiao Jiu'an had never been able to sleep well in the army, so he spent the night there and never gave anyone any face.

This was the first time he had seen Xiao Jiu'an in such a refreshed and energetic state since he met him in the morning.

Xiao Jiu'an was indeed in a good mood, but he did not have the intention to bother with Xiao Shaorong, and coldly asked: How many people's poison are still left untreated?

In this past month, in order to cure Yanbei Army, not only did they not train, they also used up all the food and herbs that they brought. Once the poison was cured, they would have to start training and gather more food.

"There are still five thousand people who have not been cured of their Corpse Poison and eight thousand people from the Southern Wilderness. According to wangfei's words, everyone's poison can be cured by tomorrow at the latest." From beginning to end, Xiao Shaorong had been dragging on for more than a month, and he was also extremely tired.

In this month, he had used all the connections he had with the Xiao Family in order to barely preserve the lives of these thirty thousand Yanbei Army. In fact, in order to collect medicinal plants, he had traded them with the Yun Clan in the South, and used a large amount of food in exchange for the medicinal plants they needed.

It was inevitable for them to be at a disadvantage, but at that time, they had no choice but to let that evil merchant from the Yun Family take advantage of them.

However, they, the Yanbei Army s, would not take advantage of it so easily.

"In that case, we will arrange for everyone to enter the mountain for training in three days for a period of five days." Other than training, they could also hunt. This was a common practice in Yanbei Army.

The imperial government gave the Yanbei Army very little supplies, and the rewards for winning the war were pitifully little. Furthermore, the imperial government didn't give him any military salaries, only some food and fodder every year.

After all these years, the food allocated to the Yanbei Army by the imperial government was just enough for them not to starve to death, they would never be able to eat enough.

To be raised by the imperial government, not to mention war, it was already considered good for Yanbei Army to be able to leave. On the other hand, Yanbei was not rich because of the years of war, and relying on the local taxes to ensure that the Yanbei Army was full.

However, it was not enough to feed the soldiers. There weren't many ordinary soldiers who would join the army to protect the country. Most of them did so for the sake of eating their fill and making a fortune by promotion.

Being a soldier is a job with your head on your belt. If you can't let someone eat their fill and get rich without getting promoted, who would give you the chance to fight for your life? Who would risk their lives on the battlefield?

All these years, in order to nurture soldiers, in order to provide better conditions for the Yanbei Army, Xiao Jiu'an had to worry about a lot of things.

This method could not only train their combat abilities in the forest, but also give them some meat. It could even be sold for money, which could be considered an income from the Yanbei Army.

Hearing Xiao Jiu'an's arrangements, the expression on Xiao Shaorong's face immediately became heavy. He was in charge of the various small and large affairs of the Yanbei Army, so he was naturally clear on the financial situation of the Prince Yanbei's Mansion.

There was nothing he could do!

Yanbei Army consumed energy every year, and the energy consumed every year was not little. Even if he emptied the entire Xiao Family, he wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

Now, he could only hope that Son of Prince Duan's Liu Li would be able to earn some silver and lighten the burden on them …
