C161 Difficulties in Expedition

"Yun Fei, what happened?" Mu Chuyang was really worried for Duan Yunfei, as he chased after Duan Yunfei and kept on asking.

Duan Yunfei was in no mood to speak nor did she want to speak. She summoned Xiao Gui and ordered her to inform Mu Chuyang and the others about this matter.

Xiao Gui, who was waiting outside, was suddenly called by Duan Yunfei, and knew that this was a very important matter. If someone else heard this, it would be bad, so she could only call Xiao Ya to stand guard for her.

Although Xiao Ya had never come looking for trouble with Xiao Gui in the month that Xiao Gui was in Red Luan Palace, as Duan Yunfei and herself had told her, and had always adhered to the principle of not disturbing her, Xiao Gui was still unhappy that she was suddenly asked to do something.

Xiao Gui could see the unwillingness in Xiao Ya's heart from Xiao Ya's expression, but Duan Yunfei was still waiting for her to enter. Xiao Gui could only coax her.

"Big Sister Xiao Ya, please do me a favor and help me look around here. I'll be out very soon, and wait for the next time, I'll also take care of some things for you.

Xiao Ya was not someone who knew what was important. When Duan Yunfei suddenly told them to stop playing with the snow with a serious face, Xiao Ya guessed that something bad had happened. Since Duan Yunfei called Xiao Gui in, then there must be something important.

"The reason why I'm guarding here for you isn't because you've asked for my help. It's just because you're doing some work for the princess. You can go in."

"Thank you, Big Sister Xiao Ya."

Although Xiao Ya was younger than Xiao Gui, Xiao Gui did not change her words. One must know that Xiao Ya did not like Xiao Gui. If Xiao Gui were to call her by her name, Xiao Ya's prejudice towards Xiao Gui would only be deeper. Xiao Gui was not willing to see that.

When Xiao Guizi opened the door, a gust of cold wind took the opportunity to slip in, blowing on Duan Yunfei's body, causing her heart to feel much colder.

Mu Chuyang saw Duan Yunfei shiver and immediately put the cloak on Duan Yunfei, "Be careful, don't catch a cold."

If it was the past, Duan Yunfei would have felt that such concerned words were warm, but after hearing what Xiao Gui Zi had told him, Duan Yunfei's mood did not change at all because of Mu Chuyang's concern.

Duan Yunfei's current heart was as cold as the snow outside.

"Princess, Young Prince Mu, Young Master Wu Shan, Miss Zuo Yuan …" Xiao Gui closed the door and walked in front of Duan Yunfei and the others, performing the ceremony, and waited for Duan Yunfei to speak.

"Little Gui, repeat what you just said to me."

Other than helplessness, there was only helplessness and worry in Duan Yunfei's tone.

Upon receiving the order, Gui Zi began to recount the news that he had just received. It was a grave bad news.

"Just now, this servant went to deliver the princess to the Eunuch Li and handed her over to this servant this morning to give his majesty's Warm Bag. This servant waited at the entrance of the imperial study for a long time, but did not see the Eunuch Li return, but unknowingly, I heard a piece of news …"

Mu Chuyang was worrying about Duan Yunfei, so how could he have the mood to listen to Xiao Gui's details? He impatiently told Xiao Gui, "There's no need to tell me all of this, just tell me the news that you heard quickly."

Xiao Gui felt wronged. One must know that the short few words that he had said a moment ago had finished explaining the situation in the foreword and was about to say what he had heard. However, he did not expect Mu Chuyang to interrupt and reprimand him.

However, Xiao Gui did not complain. Instead, he continued, "This servant heard that the vice minister of the military was discussing the matter of the expedition with His Majesty."

Departure? Why did they suddenly talk about the expedition and who was it that was going to go out to fight? Mu Chuyang and the others did not understand. If the matter had reached the point of going out to battle, how would Mu Chuyang and Wu Shan have heard of it?

"Go on." Mu Chuyang and Wu Shan's expressions also changed, the atmosphere in the room immediately becoming tense.

"Your servant could faintly hear the assistant minister of the military saying something like Golden Horde Kingdom, fast horses, and begging your majesty to lead the army …"

Xiao Gui wanted to say something, but he hesitated. One must know that he had heard some of the words that had said while he was outside the house, and he himself was not sure, but he was afraid of the huge matter before he returned to inform Duan Yunfei.

If this matter was fake, Duan Yunfei could only punish Xiao Gui for being suspicious, but if it was true, this was a major matter for the Jin Country. Xiao Gui had thought about it many times on the way here, and still felt that it was appropriate to inform Duan Yunfei.

As for whether it was true or false, Duan Yunfei would make a decision, and also ask Yuwen Di. That was not something Xiao Gui should be worried about.

The Golden Horde Kingdom continued to invade, and Mu Chuyang and Wu Shan had heard of it, but it was just that the Golden Horde Kingdom was just a small country, it had not been established for a long time, and its foundation was not stable yet. The king of the Golden Horde Kingdom only had the intention to expand her territory, but did not have the power to make a ruckus at the borders of the Jin Country.

Much less in Golden Horde Kingdom, where a few princes were fighting for the position of crown prince, the situation in the country was still not stable, so Yuwen Di had never placed Golden Horde Kingdom in his eyes.

However, if what Xiao Gui Zi said was true, the current situation was such that they had to quickly report the situation at the border, and there were even officials who wished for Yuwen Di to lead the army personally, Mu Chuyang and the others did not dare think too much about the consequences.

"Alright, you can leave first."

When Duan Yunfei ordered Xiao Gui to leave, Xiao Gui immediately left. Looking at the expressions on Duan Yunfei and Mu Chuyang's faces, he felt that a huge storm was coming, and it was just like last night when the snow started to fall soundlessly.

Xiao Gui had already finished reporting this matter. Even though Duan Yunfei had a lot of doubts in her heart, she was more worried.

Mu Chuyang and the others' moods were the same as Duan Yunfei's now, everyone's moods were very heavy. From the joy they had when playing with snow, they leapt to the bottom of the valley.

After a moment of silence, Mu Chuyang opened his mouth first, "Yun Fei, don't worry too much for now. Xiao Gui Zi also said that he only heard vaguely. Perhaps, this matter isn't as serious as we thought. After we return today, I will definitely ask Royal Father. If this matter is true, we will make plans after that. "

Mu Chuyang's comforting words were useless as Duan Yunfei only wanted to find Yuwen Di and ask him about the situation.

"That's right, Yun Fei. If we were to make wild guesses like this, it would not have any effect. We are just making up our minds and worrying about the heavens." Think about it, Golden Horde Kingdom is just a small country, how could it cause such a panic? "

Wu Shan comforted Duan Yunfei, although his heart was filled with mixed emotions.

Zuo Yuan did not know about military affairs, she only held Duan Yunfei's hand, attempting to play a role.
