The princess has space, and her life turns around when she turns into a silly woman

Shangguan Qing smiled slightly, knowing that the ancients cared very much about these things.

So he explained: "Old Duke, please rest assured, I will not do anything else. I am just helping the enemy to collect the corpses."

Hearing this, the old Duke heaved a sigh of relief and said, "As long as there are no other special circumstances, it will be fine."

Shangguan Qing remained calm as he continued, "There's really nothing special about it. It's just that some things must be dealt with. These corpses serve an important purpose."

Her tone was calm, but her next words were shocking.

"Return our soldiers."

Yan Bei said with deep sorrow, "Alright, that's it. They've taken at least 100,000 of our prisoners of war. The casualties were heavy, but I don't know how many we can get back."

Shangguan Qing responded calmly: "We'll exchange as much as we can. If we can't get it back, we'll find a way to get it back."

At this moment, Yan Bei stared at Shangguan Qing and asked excitedly, "Are you...are you related to General Shangguan? Why are your words and actions so similar to his?"

Shangguan Qing smiled and spoke in a relaxed tone.

"Uncle Yanbei has a really good eye. I am Xiaoqing'er."

Hearing this, Yan Bei widened his eyes, his face full of astonishment, and he shook his head repeatedly while speaking loudly.

"No, that's impossible! Xiao Qing'er should be in the capital, how could she be here? Besides, our Xiao Qing'er is a very beautiful girl!"

His words clearly revealed his suspicion towards the person in front of him. He felt that this person was very different from the Shangguan Qing in his memory. How could it be possible?

Shangguan Qing smiled slightly, knowing in his heart that his current appearance was indeed hard to believe.

I have to admit that Dongmei's disguise skills are really superb. Even she herself is a little surprised to see her current appearance, not to mention that others can't recognize her.

She gently raised her hand, wiped off the disguise on her face, and said softly, "Uncle, look at me now, do you still look the same? I only changed my appearance to hide my identity before."

As she moved, a beautiful and familiar face appeared in front of everyone.

Yan Bei was stunned for a moment, then he knelt down excitedly, his eyes full of shock and joy.

"Yes, it is indeed Xiao Qing'er, that's right, that's right, meet the young lady!"

Shangguan Qing hurriedly helped the man up, "Uncle, what are you doing? Hurry up and get up. I'm here not only to help you, but also to save Dad."

Yan Bei became even more excited when he heard this. "What? You mean the general is still alive? Has the young lady heard any news about the general?"

Shangguan Qing nodded and looked towards the western border with a determined look.

"Uncle Yanbei, I've got news about Daddy. He's in the Western Frontier King City. Once things stabilize here, I'll go and rescue him."

Yan Bei was in tears, and his voice was choked with excitement.

"Okay, okay, that's great. As long as the general is alive, everything can be done slowly."

Shangguan Qing was very pleased that someone still remembered his father, so he asked, "Uncle, why do I only see you? Where are the others?"

Yan Bei shook his head helplessly and slowly talked about what happened that year.

"Back then, the old Duke was urgently summoned back to the capital, and the general and we were stationed here. Later, General Shangguan also arrived. He was low-key and steady, and quickly won the hearts of the soldiers. He was called General Shangguan. But after the general disappeared, his true colors were exposed. He quietly suppressed the brothers, and many of them were dismissed. Now I am the only one left, and I have been assigned to the last Jiahe Pass."

Shangguan Qing had a cold face and eyes full of resentment.

"Uncle, it was he who harmed Daddy and revealed Daddy's whereabouts to Xijiang. I will definitely kill him to avenge everyone."

Yan Bei was also furious when he heard this. "Great, it turned out to be him. I never thought he would persecute his own family like this. The fall of Western Xinjiang this time was also due to his treason. The defending army has disappeared without a trace."

Everyone was shocked, and Shangguan Qing was even more confused. "What happened? The defending army has disappeared?"

Yan Bei explained helplessly.

"Miss, I'm not very clear on this matter. I only know that the enemy attacked Yanmen Pass directly. All the soldiers were captured overnight, and there was no news of any call for help. Then we held Jiahe Pass until now, with countless casualties. We don't know how the enemy broke into the city, but we know that Shangguan Xi colluded with the enemy."

Shangguan Qing frowned slightly and nodded, "Okay, I get it. He is inextricably linked to this matter. I cannot let him ruin the reputation of my Shangguan family like this. I must restore our Shangguan family's reputation."

Murong Bai grabbed Shangguan Qing and said, "Qing'er, what are you going to do? This is absolutely not allowed."

Yan Bei also shook his head repeatedly, "Miss, the battlefield is too dangerous, you can't go."

The old Duke was very worried. "Princess, leave these matters to us. Just take care of yourself."

Shangguan Qing shook his head slightly and looked at Murong Bai with apology.

"Murong Bai, I'm sorry, I may have to break my promise to you. To restore the Shangguan family's reputation, it must be done by someone from the Shangguan family. I can't let my father come back with a stigma."

Murong Bai held Shangguan Qing's hand tightly, and then said lovingly, "Qing'er, I support you in whatever you want to do, but you can't leave my side."

Shangguan Qing smiled instantly, very brightly.

"Murong Bai, thank you, you are so kind. I knew you would agree."

Murong Bai looked at Shangguan Qing helplessly, rubbed her hair and said, "I really can't do anything about you."

Everyone was stunned and froze on the spot. What was going on? Why was the Regent, who always kept a distance from others, looking at someone with such doting?

Those who knew him were Shangguan Qing, and those who didn't thought he was a man. In this way, the news that Regent Murong Bai liked men spread like wildfire.

The next day, Shangguan Qing almost laughed out loud when he heard the news.

"Hahaha, Murong Bai, so you like men?"

Murong Bai's tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed.

"Isn't it clear to Qing'er whether your husband likes men or women? Why? Do you want your husband to confirm it?"

Shangguan Qing refused directly and ran out in a hurry.

Shangguan Qing came outside, breathing the fresh air and feeling the hustle and bustle of the border.

The firemen had already opened fire, but Shangguan Qing was stunned when he saw the brown rice porridge and multi-grain steamed buns that the soldiers were eating.

"Murong Bai, what's going on? Is this all the soldiers are going to eat?"

Murong Bai shook his head, frowned, and took Shangguan Qing directly to the commander-in-chief's tent.

At this time, everyone looked worried. Seeing Murong Bai stand up and salute, they did not show any dissatisfaction with Shangguan Qing's arrival.

Murong Bai had already guessed what was going on, so he asked, "What are you all worried about?"

The old Duke stood up and said, "Your Highness, I only brought 100,000 reinforcements with me on this expedition, and no food or fodder at all. It will take at least a month for the capital to gather all the food and fodder. The current reserves at Jiahe Pass will last until tomorrow at most."

Hearing this, Murong Bai frowned even more tightly.
