The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth

Zheng Ying shook his head like a wave drum: "No, no, Your Highness, please forgive me for not being able to obey your command!"

Seeing that Zheng Ying refused to give in, Ji Xiang was so angry that she drew her sword with a clang.

He pressed the tip of his sword against Zheng Ying's throat and said viciously, "Are you going or not?"

"If you refuse to send troops, this princess will kill you right now!"

Ahhh! Zheng Ying was horrified. He had heard that the Thirteenth Princess had a bad temper and was unreasonable.

If I don't agree to what I see today, I'm afraid my life will be in danger.

So he hurriedly said, "My Lord, Your Highness, please don't be impulsive. Be careful not to hurt me by mistake!"

"I agree. If you let me go, I will go and gather the troops immediately!"

Ji Xiang's lips curled up, and a smile immediately appeared on her face: "Humph! It would have been much easier if you had agreed earlier! You must wait until this princess gets angry! Let's go!"

Yes! Zheng Ying did not dare to neglect it and quickly gathered 20,000 troops to escort Ji Xiang out of the city.

After seeing Ji Xiang leave the city, he hurriedly jumped on his horse and galloped towards Zhao Ben's central army camp.

Zhao Ben was sleeping soundly when he heard a soldier outside the tent announce, "General! Zheng Ying wants to see you!"

Zhao Ben was shocked. He thought that Zheng Ying must have something urgent to ask for so late at night. He immediately dressed himself and asked Zheng Ying to come in.

As soon as Zheng Ying entered the tent, he gasped and said, "General, something bad has happened!"

"The Thirteenth Princess used her sword to force me to send her 20,000 troops. Now they have left the city and are trying to steal the camp!"

What? Zhao Ben stood up with a bang after hearing this: "Nonsense! Aren't you just going to die?"

He glared at Zheng Ying and shouted, "Are you stupid?"

"It's okay that the princess has a volatile personality! How could you really listen to her and send 20,000 people?"

Zheng Ying grinned and said aggrievedly, "General! The princess has placed her sword against my neck. If I don't agree, she will kill me immediately!"

Zhao Zun's beard stood up in anger, and he paced back and forth anxiously...

After a long while, he finally stopped and said, "Quickly send someone to invite Young Master Ri over!"

Zi Ri was dreaming of playing a boat game with Ruo Er when he heard someone outside the tent shouting, "Master! Master! General Zhao has an urgent matter! Please come over immediately!"

Huh? Oh! Okay! Zi Ri finally came back to reality from his sweet dream. He wiped the saliva from his mouth and replied, "Right away!"

After saying that, he quickly stood up, dressed neatly, and walked towards the central military tent.

When Zhao Jin saw Zi Ri coming in, he grabbed him and said, "Master! Something terrible has happened!"

Ah! Zi Ri was shocked. It must be a big deal to make General Zhao so anxious.

He asked hurriedly: "General! What happened?"

Zhao Jin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Sir! The Thirteenth Princess just led 20,000 troops out of the city to steal the camp!"

What? Zi Ri was so frightened that his whole body trembled. He thought to himself, this damned son! How could he be so bold! How dare he sneak into the camp and rob the stronghold!

Before he could say anything, he heard a great commotion outside the city, and faintly heard the neighing of war horses and shouts of killing.

Everyone's anus tightened, thinking, it's over! The fight has started.

Zhao Ben quickly led everyone up to the city wall. After climbing up the city wall, the shouting and screaming they heard were getting closer.

There were flames rising from the enemy camp and figures swarming around. The two sides were fighting fiercely.

Zi Ri was so anxious that he was about to cry on the city wall. He thought that if he led troops to rescue, the mission of defending the city would be ruined.

If she is not rescued, the princess's life will certainly be in danger. Seeing Zi Ri so anxious, Zhao Jin sighed and said, "Sir!"

"If all else fails, I will lead my men out of the city to rescue Her Royal Highness, and the responsibility of defending the city will be handed over to you, Young Master!"

Zi Ri quickly waved his hand, "General, no! Shanrong has a hundred thousand men. How many soldiers do you need to lead to victory? If you bring too few, you'll be sending yourself to die!"

"If we take all the troops out, Yancheng will become an empty city. If the Shanrong turn around and attack, Yancheng will be in danger!"

Zhao Ben sighed and said, "Alas! How could I not know the pros and cons of this!"

"But if anything happens to the princess, we won't be able to escape the blame, given the king's love for her!"

Zi Ri thought so too. If he just watched the princess in trouble without saving her, he would have a hard time explaining to the King of Yan.

He hardened his heart and said, "General, you are too old to go to war. I will go!"

Zhao Zhen smiled bitterly and shook his head. He looked at Zi Ri's thin arms and said, "Sir, although I am a little old, my martial arts skills are still there!"

"You are so weak and you don't know any martial arts. How can you fight in the battlefield? Don't fight anymore. If you continue to fight, the princess will be gone!"

"Let me lead 30,000 men to rescue Her Royal Highness, and leave the rest of the soldiers with you to defend the city."

"Remember, no matter whether we can return or not, do not send any more troops to rescue us. The responsibility of defending Yancheng will be handed over to you, young master!"

After saying that, he led his subordinates to gather 30,000 troops and quickly marched out of the city.

At this time, Ji Xiang's 20,000 troops were surrounded by Shanrong soldiers.

Half an hour ago, she led 20,000 people to sneak into the enemy camp.

But when she entered the tent, she found that there was no one inside. Just when she was stunned.

Countless Shanrong soldiers holding torches rushed out from all directions and surrounded them.

Ji Xiang saw this and cried out inwardly, "Oh no! We've been ambushed!" She quickly ordered her soldiers to break out.

But where can we break in? Twenty thousand versus one hundred thousand, what a huge ratio.

In less than half an hour, more than half of the 20,000 people she brought with her were killed or injured.

Only then did Ji Xiang realize her regret. Why was she so impulsive and always wanted to show off her skills to Zi Ri?

Unexpectedly, the old fox Shanrong Chanyu had anticipated her surprise attack and made preparations in advance.

It's over! Looks like this is the end of it. No! I can't accept my fate. I have to break out!

I haven't married Zi Ri yet, I can't just die here.

Thinking of this, she gripped her spear tightly and rushed towards the enemy with all her might.

At this time, Zhongshan Xiaoduo was standing on the chariot looking at the scene in front of him. He waved to one of his subordinates.

The subordinates hurriedly came closer, and Zhongshan pointed at Ji Xiang and asked, "Who is that beautiful female general?"

The subordinate glanced at Ji Xiang and shook his head: "Your Majesty, I don't know. I will find out once I capture a prisoner and ask him."

Zhongshan nodded: "Okay! Go!"

Not long after, the subordinate came over carrying a Yan soldier.

He threw the soldiers to the ground and shouted, "Tell me! Who is the woman leading the group?"

The soldier was so frightened that his body was shaking like a sieve. He stammered, "General! General, spare my life!"

"That, that woman is, the thirteenth princess of Yan State, Ji, Ji Xiang!"

Oh? Zhongshan was overjoyed when he heard this. He had never expected that it was the Thirteenth Princess who had brought people to steal the camp!

Hahahaha... He waved to his subordinates, who immediately raised their swords and chopped off the soldiers' heads.

"Pass the order down, don't hurt Princess Thirteen! I want to capture her alive!"

"Yes!" the subordinate agreed and ran towards the position.

Zhongshan waved to Chu Xiong beside him and said, "General Chu! Go and capture the Thirteenth Princess and bring her to me!"

Chu Xiong agreed and rushed towards the position with his halberd.

At this time, Ji Xiang was so tired that she was panting and felt weak all over. Her legs were shaking uncontrollably.

Just as she was about to raise her gun to stab the soldier, she saw everyone move to the sides and a tall and mighty general stood before her.
