Xiao Ziyi had always felt that even though Bai Yixuan was a girl, there was a ravine in her heart and she was not mistaken.

"Oh yeah, His royal highness the prince took the initiative to go to the border."

"General Meng already told me." Bai Yixuan's expression was a little abnormal.

"I heard that His Royal Highness the Prince of Bravehearts was the one who went there, but His royal highness the prince took the initiative to ask him to go there himself.

"Your Highness must be worried that the Crown Prince won't know anything when he goes to the battlefield. It's true that the Crown Prince hasn't gone to the battlefield, but I've seen his learning ability, so there shouldn't be any big problems."

Xiao Ziyi nodded his head, "These days are not peaceful at all. It's a pity that I'm these weak scholars."

Bai Yixuan laughed, "Ziyi, you don't have to be so arrogant and belittle yourself. Everyone has their own places to shine, for example, the battlefield is the world of the General Meng."

Xiao Ziyi held onto the teacup and asked after a moment of hesitation, "Tomorrow, the crown prince and Tian Mo will leave with the great army, do you want to send them off?"

"What am I going to send you off? What's there to see you off? If you're going, then go. I know you're going to send me off, so go ahead and help me bring back my good intentions."

Xiao Ziyi looked at Bai Yixuan's obviously bad expression, and in the end, did not say anything. He only let out a faint sigh.

"Ziyi, don't spout nonsense. I promise to marry you, then I'll definitely marry you. I'm just a weak girl who can't do anything. At most, I'll just give the General Meng a little bit of alcohol.

Xiao Ziyi knew that Bai Yixuan's current reaction was to care, but she was unwilling to speak of it. Naturally, Xiao Ziyi would not continue to talk about it, and instead started to talk about other things with Bai Yixuan.

When Xiao Ziyi left, he still had to send Mu Yefan off with the rest tomorrow. Before Xiao Ziyi left, he originally wanted to ask another question of whether Bai Yixuan was going or not, but when he saw that Bai Yixuan was sitting under the candle flame with a face tainted by the candle flame, he felt that it was actually a little unreal. Moreover, he did not know where Bai Yixuan's thoughts went to, and his entire person felt extremely hollow.

Of course, Xiao Ziyi knew what Bai Yixuan was thinking right now. Even if Bai Yixuan had said that she was very strong, she was still a girl in the end, and when her beloved person enters the battlefield, although she wouldn't directly say those words that would kill her, those things could change a lot in the blink of an eye.

Sighing, Xiao Ziyi left.

On the second day, Xiao Ziyi and Mu Beiche stood together, the majority of the troops had not come, so Mu Beiche began to look around, "As for Xiao Bai, are you really not prepared to send Nine out, Xiao Ziyi, you did not even tell Xiao Bai, I will send people to look for her right now."

Xiao Ziyi sighed, "Am I such a petty person in Bei Che's heart? How could I not tell Xiao Bai about such a big thing? I asked Xiao Bai yesterday too, and she wasn't willing to come."

"Xiao Ziyi, what exactly did you feed Xiao Bai? Is it because of you that she didn't come?"

"Bei Che, you are flattering me. I can't do these things." Xiao Ziyi's expression changed a little. The only person who could truly affect Bai Yixuan was this person, and that person was Mu Yefan.

"This King is truly worried. Ninth Brother's current mood is strange, and has never been to a battlefield before. Is there really no problem?"

"There's no way to predict that." Xiao Ziyi said.

Mu Beiche said angrily, "Can't you just say something good?"

"You know, I've only told the truth."

Mu Beiche became extremely angry, "Yun Zhan, go find white girl."

"Let's go to Mubai Restaurant to try our luck."

Yun Zhan nodded in agreement. Hearing Xiao Ziyi's suggestion, he also nodded, and turned to disappear within the crowd of people. The common folk of the capital all knew that the border war was happening, and also knew that the Imperial Palace was sending their troops today.

Meng Tianmo filled the kettle on his waist, then looked at Mu Yefan and said, "His royal highness the prince, this wine is really a wonderful thing, when we fight on the battlefield, this wine will definitely be of great use."

"From where?" Mu Yefan could immediately smell that it was Bai Yixuan's own wine, a wine that she had made herself.

"white girl gave it to me. white girl said she will give it to me as a free gift and treat it as my military asset."

"The market value of this wine is 15 silver per jar. How much did she give you?"

"A hundred pots."

"Xiao Bai is a businessman, a hundred pots is one thousand and five hundred gold. General Meng, you really dare to take it."

He didn't know why. Meng Tianmo felt that Mu Yefan was probably angry now, and the reason he was angry was because he did not give money to others. However, Mu Yefan did not bring up this topic any further, as Meng Tianmo carefully said, "His royal highness the prince, we should set off now."

Mu Yefan nodded, "Let's go."

Riding in front of the three armies, Mu Yefan and Meng Tianmo walked side by side, but at the moment, Mu Yefan's expression was not one bit good, and there was not even a hint of sadness, joy, or anger. Meng Tianmo thought that the crown prince, who was participating in the battle for the first time, was feeling nervous, and the crowd became denser, causing Mu Yefan's eyes to size up.

When they arrived at the city gate, they would be able to do so. Xiao Ziyi, Mu Beiche and the others stood in front of the city gate as Mu Beiche shouted, "Ninth Brother, Tianmo will definitely return safely."

"His royal highness the prince, General Meng is victorious."

Mu Yefan looked at Xiao Ziyi with a complicated expression, but Xiao Ziyi was very calm, and in the end, Mu Yefan did not see the person he wanted to meet. Yun Zhan hurriedly said that he could not find the person he wanted to see in the restaurant, which made Mu Beiche a little regretful, but Mu Yefan and Meng Tianmo had already left.

Xiao Ziyi smiled as he looked at the vexed Mu Beiche, "You have more to worry about than anyone else regarding His royal highness the prince. If not for His royal highness the prince's return, the crown prince position would definitely be yours."

"I don't care."

"That's true, if we can't find Xiao Bai in the restaurant, then there's only one possibility." Xiao Ziyi's expression was a little lonely.

"What possibility?"

"That's Xiao Bai! She really came out."

"You mean Xiao Bai came to send Nine off, but I didn't see him?"

"How could I let you see it? Let's go." Xiao Ziyi turned around and left. Wei Yuan could feel that Owner's mood right now shouldn't be very good, but he himself also didn't know how to dispel Master's mood. Other than Bai Yixuan, there didn't seem to be anyone that could make Master happy.

Bai Yixuan was standing on the rooftop of a wine shop not far away. Looking at the smoke and dust that was swept up by the army, she saw that among the two people that were galloped forward, one of them had returned to his original black robe and had black hair that was crowned with a crown.

Did Mu Yefan have something on his mind? Bai Yixuan thought for a bit, could it be that his thoughts were still herself,? Bai Yixuan looked at the sky which was a bit overcast, and actually did not know how to describe her feelings for an instant.

Until dusk, when even the pedestrians on the streets could not be seen, Bai Yixuan finally walked towards the direction of the restaurant, and saw Xiao Ziyi and Wei Yuan in front of the restaurant.

"Why are you guys here? Why aren't you entering?"

"I'm waiting for you, the big boss, to come back." Xiao Ziyi teased.

With Xiao Ziyi's intelligence, how could he not know that he was going to send Mu Yefan off?

Wei Yuan felt that the atmosphere between the two was weird, but he did not know what to say, and in the end, could only stand by the side.

"Let's go, don't you want to treat me to a meal?" Xiao Ziyi laughed.

Bai Yixuan nodded and pulled Xiao Ziyi into the restaurant.

On the other side, Mu Yefan and Meng Tianmo had been marching through the night, yet they had received information about the emergency military situation at the border. On the other side, Mu Yefan and Meng Tianmo had been marching through the night, but had continuously received information about the emergency military situation at the border,

It would be eight days before he arrived at Fringe City. Indeed, it was as Mu Yefan had said, the moment he revealed his identity as the crown prince, the previously dejected atmosphere changed, as if he was inspired by it.

The most important part of the battle was the military strength. On the one hand, it was the people's hearts. If the military strength was insufficient, then there would be a surprise attack that would be more effective.

Mu Yefan's bearing was truly out of the ordinary. Standing there, he had already calmed down many people's hearts, and under Meng Tianmo's arrangement, all of the citizens of Fringe City moved away, and all the troops from all over the country rushed over.

However, soon enough, the warriors of Zhao all encountered a serious problem, which was that they couldn't adapt to the soil and water.

's territory was the desert, and the environment of the city was no different from the Kingdom of Sha and Moon. As they looked at the wasteland, all they had to do was to leave the city and they would be covered with sand. If they continued forward, the small towns ahead would completely fall, and Kingdom of Sha and Moon's army would seem to be able to disappear into the desert.

There was such a huge commotion caused by Zhao's army, but it was as if the army of Kingdom of Sha and Moon did not exist.

Sitting in the tent, Meng Tianmo said that he would probe his own heart a few times but he was still incomparably tired, he didn't even know how to describe that feeling of exhaustion. Mu Yefan was also standing beside him, staring at the swaying candle flame inside the tent.

"Kingdom of Sha and Moon's army attacked. With such a large movement, it's impossible for them to retreat, so these people could only be hiding."

"Crown Prince, do you know how big of a project it would be for them to hide 100,000 soldiers? And there is no need for them to do so. Why would they need to hide?"

"They probably didn't hide it on purpose." Mu Yefan frowned, "What other news are there about the Kingdom of Sha and Moon, such as legends?"

Meng Tianmo frowned, then he extended his hand for the soldier beside him to call a pale-faced scholar in.

After the man entered, he immediately knelt down, "Greetings, His royal highness the prince, greetings to the General."

"His royal highness the prince here is the one who handled all matters in our army. Tell me, is there any legend in this Kingdom of Sha and Moon?"

"His royal highness the prince, General, I have only heard that the people of the Kingdom of Sha and Moon used to live in the desert since they didn't have a place to live. However, the desert lacks water sources, so these people would often dig out sand to determine the location of water sources.

"Is this a legend?"

It is said that the people of the Kingdom of Sha and Moon, regardless of gender or age, can go into the sand to find water to drink. During the day, they would hide in the depths of the sand to avoid the sun, and during the night, they would hide in the sand to keep themselves warm.
