"Mother-in-law, I..."

"Don't be nervous, it's our crane's blessing. When this war subsides, we don't care what the emperor thinks, and you don't have to bear such a big responsibility. The Southwest Palace is still capable of protecting a person..."

Mentioning the emperor, Jiang Ru's expression turned cold a little bit.

She said solemnly: "When the time comes, I will find you a good husband with your adoptive father. We can rest assured that he will take care of you and Jin'er."

"Mother-in-law, I don't need..."

"You want to say, you don't need other people to take care of you, right? But Jin'er is still a child, and he yearns for his father's love. Feng Yili, hmph, he just let it go, he is definitely not a good match. The stepmother will replace you Looking for a new husband."

Seeing her resolute attitude, Yu Yunxi knew that she couldn't be persuaded, so she could only keep silent.

"Go to bed early, and the stepmother won't bother you." Jiang Ru said softly.

"Okay, mother-in-law, you should rest earlier." Yu Yunxi nodded.

Her foster mother and others are her strongest backing.

Since mother's death, few elders have been so kind to her.

It's ironic to say that the adoptive mother has a similar name to his father's wife, Mrs. Chen.

Chen Ru...

Heh, she left the capital, but let them be at ease.

Walking out to the courtyard, Aunt Jian behind Jiang Ru couldn't help but say, "Princess, the county mistress is so outstanding, how can any man be worthy of her?"

yes.

Her Xi'er is so outstanding, and Jin'er is so cute, how can other men be worthy of them.

"If it wasn't for Crane..."

Jiang Ru let out a long sigh.

Her own son, how could she not know his thoughts?

If it wasn't for his poor health, he would definitely be by Xi'er and Jin'er's side.

"It's my fault. I didn't give him a good body." Jiang Ru shook her head, her eyes gleaming with tears.

"Princess, don't blame yourself, it's not your fault." Aunt Jian hurriedly comforted her.

Jiang Ru let out a long breath, "Maybe Hezhi also wanted to find someone who could take care of Xi'er, so he hurried to the capital, but he didn't expect that Feng Yili was really not a good person. The Feng family was better than each other. If you are cruel, you can't blame our Southwest Palace for severing ties with them..."

At the end, Jiang Ru's kind eyes also showed anger and hatred.

Aunt Jian pondered for a while, and she tried to say: "Princess, if that person succeeds in enthroning in the future, maybe he is a good match for the county magistrate."

Her words made Jiang Ru sober.

"That's right, why didn't I think of it, he is indeed a perfect match for our Xi'er. After the incident in Nanyue Kingdom is over, I must tell the prince about it!"

Jiang Ru nodded with a firm expression.

...

"Master, the Murong family is here." Qian Jiao came to report.

"Okay, go meet them."

Yu Yunxi left the mansion quickly, rode on a horse, and then led the people to the city gate.

At this time, the city gate has been opened.

Many people came from Murong's house, and they also brought dozens of horse-drawn carriages.

"Although Murong Ze is unreliable in other matters, he will not let us down at critical times." Yu Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief.

She dismounted quickly.

At this time, a bearded man who looked about forty or fifty years old came forward.

"I have met the county magistrate." He said respectfully.

"Uncle Shan, we are all acquaintances, why are you so cautious?" Yu Yunxi smiled.

Murong Shan couldn't help laughing: "Although we are acquaintances, there are still rules. County lord, after receiving your letter, our young master ordered people to collect the food and...weapons."

Murong Shan said the last words in a low voice.

Yu Yunxi's eyes flickered.

Sure enough, Murong Ze will not disappoint her.

"Where's your young master?" she asked.

"Eldest Young Master, he still has other things to spare, and he won't be able to go to the Southwest until later. But he told us to focus on the Southwest. If you need it, we Murong family will absolutely swear allegiance to the death with an order." He said. said seriously.

Swear allegiance to the death?

These words carry too much weight.

Yu Yunxi sighed, and said helplessly, "If the incident hadn't happened suddenly, I would never have wanted you to be involved."

Since ancient times, merchants and the imperial court must be separated.

The Murong family's assistance this time may become a thorn in the eyes of the imperial court and the royal family in the world.

But Murong Shan didn't have the slightest fear, he snorted and said calmly: "Don't worry about this matter, the county magistrate, our Murong family is not so easy to lose."

With his words, Yu Yunxi can feel a little relieved.

"By the way, the county lord, I don't know if you are short of troops. The hundred or so people behind me are all masters of the Murong family, and they were specially transferred by the young master to you."

Murong Shan continued to speak.

Master?

They are missing!

The imperial court was unwilling to help, and there was a shortage of soldiers and horses in the southwest.

Although there are more than a hundred people, the people Murong Ze cultivated are not bad!

She was not hypocritical, and nodded quickly: "Then I am here to thank you young master for your generosity."

"However," Yu Yunxi's voice changed suddenly, "I don't know if Uncle Shan has a roster of these people. I'll check it out and include them in the army."

When she said this, Murong Shan instantly understood what she meant.

I don't blame her for offending, they have traveled a long way, so maybe some thieves will get in with them.

The current situation in the southwest cannot tolerate thieves!

"I have a roster in my hand. These people all know each other. I'll ask them to check it carefully later." Murong Shan nodded quickly.

"Okay, sorry to trouble you."

Yu Yunxi is also busy with things now, so she doesn't have much time to chat with Murong Shan in detail. After she told Qianjiao some things, she rode her horse and prepared to go to the military camp.

But just as she was about to leave, she felt a deep gaze staring at her.

She frowned, and immediately turned to look at the crowd.

But when she looked over, she didn't find anything unusual.

She murmured in her heart, could it be that she was too nervous recently, and she was a little suspicious.

Suppressing the emotions in her heart, she didn't think much about it, and quickly raised the whip and went to the barracks.

"County Lord." The soldiers in the barracks saluted immediately when they saw her.

"Where is the prince?" she asked.

"Report to the county master, in the commander's tent."

Yu Yunxi asked them to take Zhuifeng to the side to feed grass, and she quickly walked towards the tent.

Before going in, she heard a heated argument coming from inside.

After she walked in, the voices stopped.

Several generals sat on both sides of Shen Si, their faces were flushed red.

"What happened?" she asked immediately.

"County Lord, it's because you were reckless that day and hurt the peak of the Nanyue Kingdom. Their prince was furious, so he stationed soldiers and horses only three miles away from us. Now the enemy is pressing every step of the way, and we can't sleep at night."

A general said in a strange way.

Yu Yunxi glanced over and quickly recognized the other party.

The other party calls Ying Jianyuan, who has followed his adoptive father for many years and saved his adoptive father's life. He is an old general.

But this person is narrow-minded and has a very high spirit. When he was leading the army with her, he was dissatisfied with everything about her, and always felt that it was inappropriate for her to lead the army by a woman.
