Qi Ji was seriously injured. Originally, several people wanted Qi Ji to return to the base camp to recuperate for a few days, but Qi Ji refused to agree.

"A Ning's injuries were not light, and she is a girl who is still holding on. How can I hide and recover from my injuries?"

Qi Ji has fully woken up and can barely stand on his own.

Zhou Ning was also seriously injured, and he barely took on dozens of arrows, so his body was already exhausted.

But she was stubborn, and even though her lips turned pale, she still stood there firmly, refusing to say a word about retreating.

"Then let's go together."

Zhou Ning climbed onto her horse and smiled faintly at the few people. She was carrying a bow and arrow, looking like a graceful female knight.

Shen You and Qi Ji smiled at each other, then got on their horses and followed Zhou Ning.

Bai Zhao mounted his horse and galloped away in the opposite direction of Zhou Ning. Only after the horse had gone far away did he dare to turn around quietly and see that bright figure.

The three of them rushed all the way and arrived at the military camp on the front line before noon.

When the soldiers saw this large force, they knew it was sent out last night, but they still asked as usual: "Who are you?"

Zhou Ning reined in his horse, took out the dragon card, and said solemnly, "Your Highness the Princess."

The soldier immediately knelt down with his fists clasped, and shouted, "Greetings, Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

Shen You waved her hand and said, "All the soldiers have worked hard. This princess came to express her condolences. Please find General Cui for me."

The soldier immediately said yes and left.

When Cui Zhien heard about Her Royal Highness the Princess, she knew that Shen You had come.

It's just a princess's consolation, which is a little unbelievable.

Not to mention anything else, the front line is so dangerous, how could a little girl dare to do that?

Choi Ji-eun had also met Shen You a few times, and her impression of her was that she was just a likable and lovely girl.

Cui Zhien said "I know" and went out.

Although she is a junior, she is still Her Royal Highness the Princess, and she should be given due face.

Choi Ji-eun put on her clothes and went out to greet Her Royal Highness the Princess.

"Old minister...A Ning?!"

Choi Ji-eun was about to perform the salute according to etiquette when she saw Zhou Ning standing next to Shen You.

Seeing that Cui Zhien looked unhappy, Shen You was afraid that he would be angry and scold An Ning, so she took the lead in explaining: "An Ning is my study partner, so naturally I came."

Cui Zhien continued to salute and shouted expressionlessly: "Princess!"

Shen You sighed and was still angry.

"Your Highness, the Princess, Master Qi, and Miss Zhou, please move to the tent."

Choi Ji-eun emphasized the three words "Miss Zhou".

It is impossible for Choi Ji-eun not to care about this adopted daughter.

After all, Wangmei and I have been together for so many years, and we are always hoping to have a child.

But due to various reasons, Aning always treated him like a stranger.

When Aning first came to Mengzhou, he had many dissatisfactions.

As a young girl, wouldn't it be nice for her to live a life of luxury in the capital?

But even though the emperor issued an order, there was nothing he could do.

I also thought that General Ji was very safe, and even if something unexpected happened, there would still be time to retreat.

Now, look what happens when you come directly to the front line and you might lose your life if you are not careful.

Cui Zhien was angry, but seeing that Zhou Ning looked pale, she thought it was due to fatigue from the long journey, so she didn't say anything more.

Cui Zhien sent someone to make tea for the three people and said, "This place is simple, I hope Your Highness will forgive me."

The tone is so stiff that you can go build the Great Wall.

Shen You lost her princess airs and smiled to please Cui Zhien, "There are no outsiders here now, and my uncle knows what kind of person I am. If you continue to call me Your Highness, I'm afraid I'll be embarrassed to death."

When Cui Zhien heard this, she also put aside the etiquette between the monarch and the minister, and said with a dark face: "Do you know how dangerous it is here?"

"Of course I know." Shen You sipped the tea as if nothing had happened, and praised the tea. "But if we hadn't come to the front line, we wouldn't have discovered that the Northern Di actually wanted to attack the base camp at night..."

Shen You described the entire development process in a light-hearted manner.

The more Choi Ji-eun listened, the more frightened she became.

If the Northern Di people really succeed, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Uncle." Shen You said seriously, "There are several thousand Beidi people. It is impossible for them to sneak across the front line and attack General Ji's base camp with such a big commotion. Moreover, I see that the Beidi people are not afraid at all. It seems that Daqian is in their pocket."

A big part of the reason why Yelu Chuken mediated with them was that he was very confident.

Cui Zhien's brows furrowed even more.

"Uncle, there is a traitor!" Shen You's voice was very soft, but very certain.

If there weren't a traitor who was watching over the inside and outside, they would never have been able to sneak attack the base camp by crossing the front-line troops.

Cui Zhien's face was full of dark clouds, but she just clenched her fists and gritted her teeth and said: "Soldiers are fighting on the front line, and there are still people who betray the country. They really deserve to die!"

Shen You had other thoughts in his mind. This time it must be a betrayal by the upper class.

But Li Po was probably just a small soldier, but he also committed treason, and it seemed that there was some reason.

If people rebel against the country because of corrupt officials and rampant evil forces, causing them to lose confidence in the court, then we will be in trouble.

The people are the foundation of the country. Without this foundation, the country cannot stand up no matter what.

"Uncle, I came to the frontline originally for another reason."

Cui Zhien said in a muffled voice: "You say."

"The morale of the soldiers on the front line is low. I want to boost their morale and let them know that Daqian is still thinking about them and has not forgotten them."

Shen You's voice was clear and sweet. It was the most delicate voice of a girl, but it contained a lofty ambition.

Choi Ji-eun was shocked. He originally thought that these kids were just making trouble, but he didn't expect them to have such thoughts.

Those princes were unwilling to take risks at the front line, but this princess dared to risk her life to boost their morale.

Choi Ji-eun's anger just now has completely dissipated, and now all that's left is admiration for Shen You and his group.

"Good! You are worthy of being the princess personally appointed by His Majesty. You are responsible!" Choi Ji-eun praised.

He looked at Qi Ji again. He also knew this Young Master Qi.

Although he had a miserable life, he was bright and handsome, and had great literary talent. Now he dared to come to the front line, so he seemed to be a good person.

Cui Zhien knew that Qi Ji and Zhou Ning were senior and junior brothers and sisters, so it could be said that they had been friends since childhood.

"Young Master Qi, I have something I'm not sure if I should ask you."

Qi Ji gently put down the teacup and said gently, "General, please feel free to speak."

Cui Zhien chuckled and said, "You know, I only have two daughters, Ning and Wan. I'm afraid it will only be the two of them in the future. I must take great care of them and love them. Now Wan is married, and only Ning hasn't been engaged yet..."

Qi Ji interrupted quickly: "I'm sorry, General, I only treat An Ning as my sister."

Cui Zhien was stunned, then said: "I know, what I mean is, you are her senior brother, so you are also half a brother. If you have good boys around you, remember to take care of them for An Ning."
