The sun rose from the desert, illuminating the entire camp.

Yu Wu came out of the big tent, his face full of helplessness and guilt.

Seeing Shen Lin, he knelt down and said, "General, last night I..."

"Get up! What are you going to do?" Shen Lin didn't ask the reason, he just wanted the result.

Yu Wu was in mixed emotions: "I said I would be responsible for her, but she didn't want to..."

"How can this be possible?" Shen Lin frowned, "Since I have lost my virginity, how can I get married in the future?"

"General, I, I really like her..." Yu Wu lowered his head, and his muffled voice was close to sobbing.

Last night's joy was the peak of his happiness in this life. Today, he felt like he was abandoned on an icy lake, his body and mind were chilled to the point of despair.

They are already husband and wife, but she still doesn't want him...

"As long as she likes you, slowly convince her." Shen Lin helped Yu Wu up, "Okay, go do what you need to do!"

"Thank you General!"

Yu Wu went back to his tent with his head down.

Zhou Niannian had already put on her clothes, but stayed in Shen Lin's tent and refused to come out.

The girl who took care of her went in twice but failed to persuade her.

Shen Lin could only lift the tent curtain to let the light and wind from outside in, while also avoiding suspicion when entering the tent.

"Niannian, Yu Wu really likes you." Shen Lin sighed helplessly, "Since you and him are already husband and wife, just marry him!"

"I do not!"

Zhou Niannian refused loudly and stubbornly, her eyes red as if she had been crying a long time ago.

Shen Lin asked: "Then what do you want to do?"

"You dislike me, don't you?" Zhou Niannian asked hoarsely.

Shen Lin frowned: "What does it have to do with you?"

"I like you! Last night, I came here for you..."

"Luckily it wasn't me, otherwise you would have been slapped to death!"

Shen Lin's eyes suddenly turned cold.

I thought: I have to be careful of you in the future! Don't tarnish my innocence.

Zhou Niannian opened her eyes wide and looked at Shen Lin in disbelief.

He wants to beat her to death?

"This matter has a bad impact in the military. You now have two choices. Either marry Yu Wu or leave." Shen Lin said with a calm and handsome face.

"General, why do you force me to do this?" Zhou Niannian cried again, "I just want to stay by your side..."

"I have never accepted your feelings. Who can you blame now that you are like this? Zhou Yian will arrive at Xiguan soon. Think about how to face him!"

Shen Lin turned away.

Soon, a soldier came into the tent and asked Zhou Niannian to leave.

The army was full of men, so Zhou Niannian, a woman running in and out, was already very eye-catching. She was doing this with Yu Wu, and it was inevitable that there was something strange in the way he looked at her.

It was like a needle pricking Zhou Niannian, making her feel ashamed.

Finally, she covered her face and ran away from the military camp, leaving only one sentence: "I would rather die than marry Yu Wu!"

Shen Lin was afraid something might happen, so he notified Yu Wu.

Yu Wu quickly took the horse and chased after him.

No one knew where Zhou Niannian was going, and the two of them didn't return to the camp for several days.

The "cooperative war" with the Regent of Xiyi is imminent.

The greater the benefits, the greater the risks.

Shen Lin wrote another letter to Ye Qinghuan: "Madam, I am writing to you. I want to kill Shen Rong, and I will return to Beijing after I succeed. If there are any setbacks, you must believe that I will come back."

But what if he can't come back?

After much thought, Shen Lin wrote another "divorce letter" and put it at the bottom of his box.

If he died in battle, he would set her free.

The toad blood is still there, so she can marry a good family with a clean record.

He didn't know that Ye Qinghuan also received Bai Yanyan's secret letter.

"The Princess of Jiahe County recognized the Prince Regent as her father and was given the title of Princess. Her life will be safe and secure."

How could this be?

Ye Qinghuan was shocked.

Isn't this recognizing a thief as one's father? If the Emperor of Daxia knew about this, there would be no need to fight the battle at Xiguan, and Jiahe would be directly sentenced to the crime of treason!

"Madam, should we tell the general about this?" Feng He was worried, "The Princess of Jiahe County is really crazy and doesn't know anything..."

But Jiahe is not crazy!

Why did she recognize the Regent as her father?

Is it so that you can live a good life in another place?

"Write a letter to the general immediately." Ye Qinghuan said, and then stopped, "Wait, if Jiahe is willing to stay in the Regent's Palace, the general will not be able to bring him back."

"The military order that the general issued in the palace..."

It can't be completed!

Under the military order, it is either merit or disaster!

Ye Qinghuan's face quickly turned pale and he fell into the chair, holding his forehead.

Is it true that she still cannot change Shen Lin's fate?

My heart was gripped with a knot, and a strong feeling of reluctance came over me.

Shen Lin, Shen Lin...

"Madam, what should we do now?" Feng He urged, "We have to let the general know about this important matter, but if we can't continue the war..."

“Unless the two countries negotiate.”

Ye Qinghuan closed his eyes and slowly curled up his weak fingers.

Feng He's eyes lit up: "But, Da Xia and Xi Yi have been fighting for so many years. The Xi Yi people always want to break through the Western Gate and march straight into our Da Xia territory. How can the emperor negotiate with the Xi Yi?"

"Yes, after so many years of war, Daxia has long wanted to destroy the prestige of the Western Barbarians." Ye Qinghuan murmured, "Even if the Western Barbarians take the initiative to negotiate, our emperor may not agree!"

The county lord of Daxia recognized the thief as her father. How could Daxia retain its dignity?

What's more, the Regent of Xiyi is cold-blooded and ruthless. How could he take the initiative to negotiate?

I’m afraid the emperor will order Jiahe to be killed to avenge his previous humiliation!

"Alas, even if we win, Princess Jiahe won't want to come back, right?" Feng He sighed, "If it were me, as long as I could live a normal life, it wouldn't matter where I was."

Ye Qinghuan nodded slowly.

So, this may be the reason why Jiahe is willing to stay in the Regent's Palace.

There is nothing more terrifying than being around a ***...

As long as the young and beautiful Jiahe is not in danger of her life, there will always be a way to survive.

"Madam, we need to make a decision early." Feng He urged.

Ye Qinghuan took a deep breath, stood up and asked Chunyan: "How much cash can we move now?"

"Thirteen thousand taels."

"Form a caravan immediately and infiltrate the Western Barbarians!"

Chunyan and the others were shocked: "But what should we sell?"

"Rare things." Ye Qinghuan curled his lips coldly, "Pick out all the rare items in my dowry and send them to Xiyi to sell!"
