Shen Zhiheng nodded and gently kissed her forehead. "I can't tell you too much. Those people are still waiting for me. I must go and come back quickly."

He turned around and prepared to leave, but Yu Ruyue quickly grabbed him and pulled out a bundle she had prepared long ago, stuffing it into his hands. "Put this in your space. I've prepared all sorts of medicines! I asked Lin Yihao to write the names of the medicines on them for me!"

"You must come back safely. My child and I are waiting for you at home."

"correct!"

Yu Ruyue took out a watch from her bag and put it on Shen Zhiheng's wrist. "This thing is called a watch. It allows you to calculate time clearly."

"When this thing rotates, it makes no sound and emits no light, but you still have to be careful when using it. This dial is quite fragile. If it is damaged, it cannot be repaired here."

Shen Zhiheng felt a chill on his wrist. He looked down and saw a round object with exceptional craftsmanship on it. He raised his hand to touch the pointer, but was blocked by a layer of transparent material. He looked up at Yu Ruyue in great surprise, "This... is this colored glass? No! Not even in the books has there been any record of such translucent colored glass. What on earth is this?"

Yu Ruyue looked at him with a smile on her face. "It's called glass. If anyone sees it, just say you bought it from a fleet out at sea!"

Shen Zhiheng knew that Yu Ruyue had a secret, and Yu Ruyue also knew that Shen Zhiheng knew that she had a secret, but neither of them made it clear. Anyway, both of them knew that they would never hurt each other!

Shen Zhiheng hugged her excitedly and assured her, "Madam, this thing is so precious. I will definitely protect this gift you gave me!"

He knew that even the current emperor had never seen such crystal clear glass, let alone such an exquisite watch.

It seems that he needs to work harder to protect the elves!

Yu Ruyue taught him how to read the hands and numbers, as well as the corresponding time. Shen Zhiheng was so surprised that his mouth opened wide, "This... This can actually tell time!?"

"This...this is amazing, Ruyue! How many surprises do you have in store for me? Oh my god! If I could use this number to deliver messages or settle accounts, it would definitely save me a lot of effort."

"When I come back, I hope Madam will be willing to give me some advice."

Yu Ruyue stared blankly at the handsome face in front of her, which was full of smiles. She was actually a little stunned for a moment. Shen Zhiheng had lost his former gentleness and composure. Instead, he was full of the surprise and liveliness of a young man receiving a gift...

No wonder there are always people who are willing to go to great lengths to collect all kinds of rare treasures from around the world just to win a beautiful woman’s smile!

Shen Zhiheng didn't notice that Yu Ruyue was almost drooling at his handsome face. He put the bag into the space, then gently hugged her. After letting her go, he knelt on one knee and kissed her belly gently.

"Madam! My husband is gone!"

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left without even looking back.

He knew that Yu Ruyue would definitely be watching him from behind, but he didn't dare to look, for fear that after seeing her, she would never want to leave again.

Their actions didn't attract anyone's attention, and only a handful of people knew about it. Everyone pretended everything was normal...

In the dark night, a team of 15 people quickly shuttled through the darkness.

They carefully passed through layers of obstacles, and after about two hours, they arrived at the woods next to the enemy camp.

They made their bodies as close to the ground as possible, then hid in the dark and observed the patrol patterns.

Shen Zhiheng discovered that these people did not seem to have expected that they would launch a night attack, so the frequency of patrols was not that high. A second team would come only after one team left for a while.

Shen Zhiheng glanced at Qin Haowen and made two gestures to him.

Shen Zhiheng and his partner put aside their identities as rivals in love and cooperated very well on the battlefield. Qin Haowen only needed a gesture to know that Shen Zhiheng wanted him to go in and investigate, find out the specific location of food and generals, and then make plans. The reason why he let him go in alone was because he had the best lightness skills and the most experience among all the people present.

Qin Haowen nodded and waited for the patrol team to pass by. Then he quickly bent his body and ran out of the woods quickly and lightly like a cheetah. Soon his figure was completely integrated into the night, and even Shen Zhiheng could not find where he was!

Shen Zhiheng admired Qin Haowen's skills in lightness skills very much.

However, an hour passed and Qin Haowen still didn't come out. Jingyue, who came with him, looked at Shen Zhiheng with some worry, asking with her eyes whether he should go in and look for Qin Haowen! ?

Liuguang and Anying were also very worried. After all, they both knew that Qin Haowen's identity was not ordinary!

Shen Zhiheng stretched out his hand and looked at his watch in the moonlight. "It should be an hour. Wait another 15 minutes. If he still doesn't come out, go in and look for him again."

Although those people didn't understand what 15 minutes meant, they still stayed there obediently...

Time passed minute by minute, Shen Zhiheng silently calculated the time in his mind. When he felt it was almost 15 minutes, he stretched out his hand and looked again.

Everyone's eyes were focused on that peculiar thing on Shen Zhiheng's wrist. Everyone was wondering what it was. Why did their general keep looking at that round thing on his wrist? Could it be that it was given to him by the general's wife?

Everyone thought of the disc that Yu Ruyue was holding in her hand when she was looking for water. It seemed to be similar to this thing, except that the pointer on that disc was not as sophisticated as the one on this hand!

Shen Zhiheng saw that the time was up, but Qin Haowen didn't come out, so he immediately gestured to the person next to him and asked the two of them to go in and look for him.

Just as the two men poked their heads out of the woods, they saw a figure running back quickly from afar. Everyone held their knives tightly in their hands with great vigilance, and only breathed a sigh of relief after they saw the person in front of them clearly.

Qin Haowen came back and hid well. He did not share the news immediately. Instead, he tried to adjust his breathing. After his breathing was completely calm, he repeated the news he had heard.

Shen Zhiheng was surprised, "What did you say?"

"These people actually want to poison the water?"

"Then why are they fighting so hard to seize this water source?"

Qin Haowen sighed, "These people might want to massacre the city."

"The situation in the north is now clear. Many of my father's former subordinates have surrendered with their troops. There are even several counties that have surrendered and opened their gates before the battle even began."
