My stepmother is here, all the rebellious sons and evildoers should kneel down!

Dongcheng launched another attack on the palace.

The Thirteenth and Fourteenth Princes personally led their troops forward, crossed the mountains, and set up camp deep in the dense forests.

Wen Qiqi and Die Jiu were willing to follow the army cooks and be responsible for the army's meals. Niansheng followed Wen Qiqi, helping the three girls fetch water and chop firewood. Occasionally, he would use his animal taming skills to catch a dozen pheasants and rabbits, and stew a delicious pot for the soldiers to taste.

"Brother Thirteen, I think the young man Qiqi brought back is quite honest, so you don't have to be too cautious."

The Fourteenth Prince, who had just discussed the next strategic layout with the Thirteenth Prince, stood up, stretched his arms, and said to the Thirteenth Prince with a smile: "This is not the capital, there aren't so many intrigues! Besides, Qiqi also said that her meeting with Niansheng was accidental, and Niansheng and his son saved the lives of Qiqi and the other two!" The Fourteenth Prince has always been bold and unrestrained, and he is not the kind of person who would care about trivial matters.

"What Fourteenth Brother said makes some sense, but I always feel that he is wearing a mask and has no good archery skills. He is definitely not like an ordinary villager."

The Thirteenth Prince put down the map in his hand and looked outside the tent.

The sky has darkened. Tomorrow's battle is of vital importance. It is unexpected that East City has taken the initiative to send troops...

"He is definitely not from East City."

The Fourteenth Prince said, "Everyone in East City has flower tattoos on their arms, and they all have heavy accents. As for the traitor... I don't think he looks like one."

"kindness."

The Fourteenth Prince nodded: "Do you think that I am a little too much in treating Qiqi's benefactor like this?"

"Hahahaha!"

The Fourteenth Prince laughed heartily: "That's too much!"

The Thirteenth Prince raised his lips and said, "It's too much now, but I can make up for it in the future. But if I take it lightly, it would not be worth it if something like this was exposed."

"Your Majesty!"

Die Jiu walked in with a steaming dish of braised pheasant.

Xinyi was holding a small plate of something black...

"Today, Niansheng caught a few pheasants, and Xinyi and I picked some fresh wild mushrooms and made a pot... My Lords, see if you have an appetite."

The biggest advantage of setting up a military camp in the dense forest is that there is no shortage of game.

The soldiers could not hold back their temper today. It rained a few days ago, and today the sun was shining brightly, with cicadas chirping everywhere.

The dew that cicadas eat is very clean, so the soldiers secretly caught some and ran to the kitchen to ask Wen Qiqi and the other two to help fry them. The smell was incredibly delicious!

“This dish is fried cicadas.”

Xinyi pursed her lips and smiled: "You two princes can't eat this in the Forbidden City!"

"Ha ha……"

Without saying anything, the Fourteenth Prince picked up a fried cicada and put it in his mouth: "Mm! It smells really good, Thirteenth Brother, please try one! It's truly a delicacy!"

The Thirteenth Prince looked at the Fourteenth Prince coldly: "Do you still look like a prince?"

A dignified prince was chewing fried cicadas in his mouth and praising the food highly!

If this kind of thing were to get out, people would be so amused that their stomachs would burst.

The Fourteenth Prince didn't take it seriously and ate another fried cicada: "Forget it if you don't want to eat it. I'm afraid this plate is not enough for me! Thirteenth brother, I'm not saying anything bad about you... We both grew up in the capital and have been bound by rules since childhood! The most you can indulge yourself with is just getting some rare things to taste..."

"Life is full of different things, and you can only truly experience them when you are on the march! You and I are now generals leading troops on an expedition, so we naturally don't need to treat ourselves as princes... In the past, I envied General Ye!"

The Fourteenth Prince couldn't help but recall the night when he led his troops to conquer East City and returned home.

"He is about the same age as us, but I have only met him once or twice... He has been fighting with the old general since he was a child. He has traveled all over the world! Because of this, the unrestrained temperament of General Ye cannot be cultivated by the feng shui of the Forbidden City!"

The Thirteenth Prince lowered his eyes and nodded.

Ye Guitu is the only man who catches Wen Qiqi's eye. Qiqi likes him. Is it really as Fourteenth Brother said...

"Don't eat it all, let me try!"

The Thirteenth Prince decided to put aside his status as a prince and grabbed a fried cicada and put it into his mouth.

To be honest, as the emperor's legitimate son, all delicacies from land and sea must be prepared with great care before they can be eaten. During the march, although the Thirteenth Prince was not pretentious, his three meals a day were also very regular. Before this cicada ate, every cell in his body was resisting!

"Is it delicious? Thirteenth brother, tell me the truth?"

The Fourteenth Prince smiled evilly.

The Thirteenth Prince chewed more and more deliciously, and said with difficulty, "Not bad... Not bad! Okay, you've already eaten half of the plate, don't eat the rest!"

"Why?"

The Fourteenth Prince took the plate away directly.

"Who told you to refuse to eat it in the first place? Now you come to snatch it from me!"

"Fourteenth brother, why didn't I see before that you are so protective of your food!"

Diejiu and Xinyi saw the two princes fighting for a plate of fried cicadas, smiled at each other, and ran out!

"Miss, the Thirteenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince are fighting over the fried cicadas! Why don't we go catch some more..."

They were already bored enough from cooking in the military camp all day.

Wen Qiqi pursed her lips and smiled slightly: "I'm afraid catching cicadas is fake, and having fun is real."

"Miss, just let us go!"

Die Jiu started to act like a spoiled child, and Wen Qiqi had no choice but to say, "Okay, go if you want, but don't go too far, just stay near the military camp."

"Yes!"

Diejiu and Xinyi didn't say anything, took a cotton bag and ran out happily.

Wen Qiqi did not go with them, but picked up a book on military strategy and began to read it with great interest.

Niansheng walked over and stood quietly beside Wen Qiqi.

Wen Qiqi subconsciously raised her head and looked at him, only to find that his eyes were focused on her own military strategy.

"Miss Qiqi, why are you looking at this? Marching and fighting is a man's job." Niansheng smiled slightly and looked at Wen Qiqi again: "You are so beautiful, you should find a man who loves you, that is the destination of your life."

Wen Qiqi smiled helplessly: "To be honest, my mother's family is a military family. I have been familiar with weapons and military tactics since I was a child! I am a woman, and I am always inferior to men in martial arts. I can only work harder on military tactics! Besides, I have already told you... There is someone in my heart. As long as I don't forget him, I will have a home."

Niansheng's eyes tightened, and then he said calmly: "Why do you have to be so infatuated, girl? It hurts me just to see you! The girl hasn't forgotten him...but what if he has already forgotten the girl..."

Wen Qiqi looked at Nian Sheng and frowned: "Brother Nian, if he is alive and forgets me, I am willing."

Niansheng raised his lips slightly, "Miss Qiqi, if your heart is still alive, but he has forgotten you! On the battlefield, you are facing each other but don't know each other... He has no memory of you and only treats you like an ordinary woman... How sad would you be?"
