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

"Niansheng didn't say that the Thirteenth Prince was acting."

He smiled slightly and looked at the excited Thirteenth Prince. At this moment, Nian Sheng's calmness made everyone worry for him.

Including Wen Qiqi.

You know, the military camp is an important place, and the Thirteenth Prince can take Niansheng's life with just one word.

Niansheng understood it, but he remained calm in the face of danger!

This scene reminded Eleven of the night when he went to the backyard alone, drew his bow and shot arrows, and knocked down a bunch of people!

"Then what do you mean?"

The Thirteenth Prince's dangerous tone made everyone present dare not even breathe.

Niansheng raised his lips and said in a relaxed manner, "I think that the prince is too lacking in life experience. You, the Fourteenth Prince, and your men all started to have abdominal pain... You suspected that they were poisoned! But you didn't think that normal diarrhea and vomiting are also common during the march."

"It has been raining for the past few days. The prince used to live in the capital, so his health is inevitably delicate. Now he lives in this tent and is exposed to the cold! If he doesn't pay attention to his diet and eats something that is difficult to digest, his stomach and intestines will feel uncomfortable!"

Niansheng’s words suddenly enlightened the Fourteenth Prince.

"Yes, Thirteenth Brother, we ate two plates of green bamboo shoots and sticky rice yesterday! And fried cicadas! These things seem to be difficult to digest!"

The Fourteenth Prince's words made the Thirteenth Prince's face look metaphorical.

"Then why are only the three of us feeling so uncomfortable? Could it be that after years of training with you, our bodies are not as good as those of the soldiers?"

"Practicing martial arts is practicing martial arts, but you have to adapt to the environment. The climate in East City is different from other places, and the bamboo shoots in East City are also different from those in other places... They are extra hard!"

Niansheng smiled slightly: "If you don't believe me, you can just ask a fellow villager! Is it easy to have stomachache and diarrhea when eating bamboo shoots with sticky rice? Of course, this must not be the first time for the prince to go to war... but it must be the first time to come to Dongcheng! The temperature difference here is very large after the rain. Didn't the prince feel the chill last night?"

The Thirteenth Prince did not speak.

It was indeed very cold last night, but he thought it was still early autumn so he wouldn't catch a cold.

"Drink more hot water and you'll be fine!"

Niansheng said: "If the two princes don't believe it, you can just do as I say. If the princes are really poisoned, I'm afraid drinking hot water won't relieve it!"

The Fourteenth Prince immediately held his stomach and asked someone to boil water quickly.

The hot water was brought up, and the three of them each had a bowl of it, drinking it even though it was slightly hot.

"Not enough, drink another bowl!"

Niansheng said.

The Thirteenth Prince frowned, said nothing, and drank another bowl as Nian Sheng had instructed.

After drinking two bowls of hot water, my appetite did feel much better, but these two bowls of water also filled my stomach, and I really couldn't drink any more.

"I feel much better now! Niansheng, you are right! It seems that I and Thirteenth Brother really wronged you."

The Fourteenth Prince looked at Nian Sheng happily and said, "I never thought that you actually know so much! Even the doctors in the army dare not make a conclusion, but you actually..."

"I'm afraid the military doctor will say that it's not a deadly poison and that we can't tell whether it was poisoned. We won't know until some time later."

Niansheng raised his lips and looked at the Thirteenth Prince: "It was because the Prince was anxious that he decided to convict Niansheng of poisoning."

The Thirteenth Prince was so embarrassed by what Nian Sheng said that he didn't know how to back down for a moment.

Fortunately, Niansheng didn’t seem to care. He said frankly that he had proved his innocence and went back to the tent.

As soon as Niansheng left, Wen Qiqi looked at the Thirteenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince, and said solemnly with a stern face: "You have wronged him. If you do this, I'm afraid it will make people feel cold."

"He's just a cook. Why do you care so much about him?"

The Thirteenth Prince frowned. These past few days, seeing Niansheng following Qiqi all the time, he felt inexplicably jealous.

This feeling made him feel ashamed!

He was a prince, and Niansheng was just a cook who followed Qiqi to the military camp...

"He is my savior. If I don't even care about him, I would be a heartless and ungrateful person."

After hearing Qiqi's words, the Thirteenth Prince felt a little ashamed.

"Forget it. It's my fault, but I didn't mean to make things difficult for him... Tomorrow, give him more silver and appease him!"

“He’s not a money-hungry man.”

Wen Qiqi looked at the Thirteenth Prince: "With his abilities, if he only cared about money, he could have taken the opportunity to kill the three of us that day! After all, we have some jewelry on us..."

jewelry!

The Thirteenth Prince suddenly remembered the bracelet that Wen Qiqi often wore on her hand.

"Where's your bracelet?"

"It's born in the year!"

Wen Qiqi looked up at the Thirteenth Prince and said, "But I gave it to him as a thank you gift!"

"That bracelet has been with you for many years, are you willing to give it to him?"

The Thirteenth Prince's jealousy soared again!

He always felt that Qiqi treated Niansheng differently from others.

Wen Qiqi looked at the Thirteenth Prince and said word by word: "If it weren't for Niansheng, Qiqi's life would have been gone long ago. What's a mere bracelet?"

Seeing that Wen Qiqi and the Thirteenth Prince were about to start arguing, the Fourteenth Prince quickly stepped forward to smooth things over.

"Brother Thirteen, Qiqi is right. At least the three of them returned safely. Niansheng did contribute a lot to this. And today... Niansheng also helped us get well as soon as possible. Otherwise, if East City launches an attack tomorrow, how will you and I command the soldiers to meet the enemy!"

Dongcheng likes to defend the most, and this is the first time they have taken the initiative to attack.

In the distance, smoke signals were already rising from East City...

At the rate at which the smoke signals are being lit, the two armies will engage in battle early tomorrow morning!

During this expedition, the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Princes also witnessed the cunning of the East City. In these days, the two armies fought four times in total. Every time the East City fought back, it was very powerful, but it always retreated in time...

The Thirteenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince were cautious and did not dare to cross the mysterious Tuma'an Mountain easily!

"Thirteenth Prince, Fourteenth Prince! Qiqi has something to say, but I don't know whether I should say it or not!"

Wen Qiqi calmed down and stopped being angry with the Thirteenth Prince. She actually walked a few steps towards the map.

"Qiqi, just say it!"

The Fourteenth Prince looked at the Thirteenth Prince, and after the two nodded, they quickly walked to Wen Qiqi's side.

Wen Qiqi pointed at the Tuma'an Mountain Range on the map and lightly swiped her white fingers across the map. "This Tuma'an Mountain is the largest mountain in East City and also a natural barrier for East City! That year, General Ye was plotted against on the cliff opposite Tuma'an Mountain..."

She frowned and sighed, "Now it seems that this Tu Ma'an Mountain must be extremely dangerous! After all, we are not as familiar with the terrain as the people of East City. I think... in the battle tomorrow, the two princes will definitely choose to let the East City army look through Tu Ma'an Mountain and fight on the flat river beach below the mountain!"

"Exactly!"

The two princes nodded.

Wen Qiqi is well versed in military tactics, and what he said is absolutely correct.

"The first four times, we fought on the riverbank, and there was no winner or loser."

The Thirteenth Prince said, "This time, Dongcheng took the initiative to attack. I don't want to waste time with them anymore. I plan to... lead most of the soldiers to fight! The number of people is more than three times that of the previous four times!"

"No!"

Wen Qiqi looked at the Thirteenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince: "If that happens, I'm afraid we will fall into Dongcheng's trap! We... should take advantage of their tricks!"
