Teng Yuanhu watched from a distance as Wang Xinyao and Zhao Haoxuan's figures gradually moved away. Only when they disappeared outside the gate of the Li Kingdom Palace did he dare to lead his soldiers out.

A thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead, and he thought to himself, "How can this Xia Kingdom's Crown Prince be so powerful? It seems that the master's information is wrong!"

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself, and then shouted loudly: "Come here, I want to send a pigeon to the master immediately!"

Before he finished speaking, the guard hurriedly presented him with writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone.

Teng Yuanhu quickly picked up the pen, dipped it in ink, and wrote quickly on the letter paper, writing in detail about Wang Xinyao and Zhao Haoxuan's strength and what had just happened.

Just as he finished writing the letter and was about to put it into the bamboo tube on the pigeon's leg, there was a sudden noise outside the hall.

Teng Yuanhu frowned and thought to himself, "Who would disturb me at this time?"

I saw a guard with a happy look on his face, leading a group of people into the Golden Palace quickly.

"Commander, good news... The master... The master has sent people to help us!" He reported loudly as he walked.

Upon hearing this, Teng Yuanhu was delighted, and quickly stood up and walked forward.

I saw that the group of people were all dressed in black, and the man in black at the head was holding a sleeping child in his arms.

Teng Yuanhu took a closer look and found that the person coming was Yin Tianlong, the second prince of Yinlie Kingdom!

A glimmer of hope for survival suddenly surged from the depths of his heart, and he quickly led everyone in bowing and saluting, "Greetings, Second Prince!"

"General Teng Yuan, you're welcome. I'm here to assist you on the orders of my master."

Yin Tianlong smiled slightly, bowed in return, and then asked, "What's going on with you guys? Why does your morale seem so low?"

Teng Yuanhu replied, "Your Highness, you may not know this. The information we received previously was incorrect. The Crown Prince of Xia is more powerful than you and I. He sneaked in last night, causing heavy losses to our army!"

"How is this possible? General, are you exaggerating to shirk responsibility? We have so many hermits in the Wolie Army, are we really no match for the Crown Prince of Xia?"

"Your Highness, everything I said is true. It was him and a woman named Wang Xinyao who caused heavy casualties to our army last night. Their strength is truly terrifying!" Teng Yuanhu replied with a look of fear on his face.

When Yin Tianlong heard this, his face darkened and he cursed "Damn it".

Then, he looked at Yin Ping'an, who had been keeping his head down. "Sixth Brother, didn't the master ask you to come to the battlefield ahead of time to scout out the situation? Why didn't you report such a major incident?"

"Reporting to my second brother, I only learned about this last night. General Fujiwara and I were planning to send a pigeon to inform our master..." Yin Ping'an lowered his head even lower.

"What a useless piece of trash!" Yin Tianlong was furious and slapped Yin Ping'an. "If you are so incompetent, what use is there for the master to have you?"

Yin Ping'an was affected by the palm wind and felt a pain in his chest. He took a few steps back, but he did not dare to refute and could only silently endure the scolding.

After Yin Tianlong finished cursing, he turned his gaze to Fujiwara Tora and said, "General, the master has issued a death order. The Xia prince must die."

"Yes, I am sending a pigeon to the master. We need to send someone stronger to get rid of him!" Teng Yuanhu nodded, his eyes falling on the child in Yin Tianlong's arms.

Yin Ping'an, who was standing aside, suddenly felt an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.

He stared at the child in Yin Tianlong's arms, feeling that something was wrong...

"Your Highness, this child is..." Teng Yuanhu asked doubtfully.

Yin Tianlong glanced at the child in his arms and laughed: "This is the greatest help my master has given me to get rid of the Crown Prince of Xia!"

"Oh, does this child have any special identity?" Teng Yuanhu was a little surprised.

Yin Tianlong nodded: "He is the child of Xia Country's Crown Princess Gou Chunmei, and Miss Gou has been taken back to the capital by the master."

As soon as these words were spoken, Yin Ping'an felt dizzy and almost collapsed to the ground.

Mei'er? Mother?

Did they have an accident?

If the master really finds her and takes her back, he will definitely not forgive Mei'er.

The cruel methods his master had used to treat traitors suddenly flooded into his mind. He seemed to have seen Mei'er's pale face...

"Sixth Brother, what's wrong with you?" Yin Tianlong said with displeasure, "I just slapped you, are you really so weak?"

Yin Ping'an tried hard to keep his body steady, but his face was completely pale.

"No, Second Brother, it's not because of you. I was injured internally in the battle with the Crown Prince of Xia last night..." His lips trembled and his voice was forced to be calm.

Yin Tianlong snorted coldly, full of contempt: "Alright, you disgraceful thing! Stand up straight!"

Teng Yuanhu looked at Yin Ping'an's distraught look and sighed in his heart.

The Sixth Prince in front of him was originally thought to be the master's right-hand man, but since he joined the army, he has done nothing. No wonder the Second Prince was merciless to him.

Yin Tianlong continued, "This child might be able to become our bargaining chip. We can make good use of him when we fight against the Xia army tomorrow."

"Yes, if the Crown Prince of Xia is loyal and righteous, there is no need to worry that he will not submit." Teng Yuanhu showed a happy expression.

"General, arrange for someone to take good care of this child." Yin Tianlong ordered: "Gather all the hermits here, I have something to order."

"This, this..." Teng Yuanhu looked embarrassed. None of the hermits he sent out to the Xia army camp last night have returned yet.

But how should he start talking about this?

Yin Tianlong's face darkened: "General... do it quickly!"

"This..." Teng Yuanhu's body trembled slightly.

Yin Ping'an mustered up the courage to interrupt their conversation: "Second brother, how about you two discuss things first? You can hand the child over to me and I'll take him down to rest. Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to the child."

"Sixth Brother, you're really getting worse as you get older. Ever since you lost your hand, I guess your courage has been frightened away. You're really only worthy of taking care of children."

"Yes, your Majesty is right. It is I who am incompetent. I will definitely change in the future." Yin Ping'an nodded humbly.

He had to escape from here with his children. He had to go to the capital to find his Mei'er and mother. He had to rescue them even if it cost him his life.

"Keep an eye on this child. If he can't even do this small thing, you know the consequences...!" Yin Tianlong said, and handed the child to Yin Ping'an.
