Xu Zhao returned to the military camp and followed Shen Yu into his tent. On the table where they usually ate was placed the potato flower pot that the two of them had just bought from the rare goods shop.

At this moment, several deputy generals were on standby in the commander-in-chief's tent, that is, Shen Yu's tent. However, the only one who was familiar with Xu Zhao was Deputy General Fang Xuren.

"Your Highness." Several deputy generals saluted Shen Yu.

When they saw Xu Zhao following behind Shen Yu, everyone except Fang Xuren was surprised.

Some of them knew Xu Zhao and were surprised that after all these years, this woman hadn't changed at all. Some were newly promoted to deputy generals in recent years and had no idea about Xu Zhao's background, yet they were now trying to get involved in serious business.

"How dare you! The prince is about to discuss military affairs with us. What are you, a woman, doing here?" said the deputy general Wang, who had made many military achievements in the past two years.

He had never seen Xu Zhao before, but because she seemed to have a close relationship with the prince, was dressed simply, and had her hair casually tied up with a hairpin, he thought she was someone in the prince's courtyard.

In the past, what he looked down upon most were those beautiful women who only depended on men. A trace of annoyance flashed across Lieutenant General Wang's eyes.

Fang Xuren had a good relationship with Xu Zhao, so how could he tolerate others talking about Xu Zhao like this? "Old Wang, what are you doing? Miss Xu is not a messy person."

He said this to explain that Xu Zhao was still a girl. He did not miss that Deputy General Wang used the word "woman" to describe Xu Zhao.

What's more, no one in the military camp knows Shen Yu better than him.

The Xu Zhao he knew was a smart, strategic and sensible girl. Knowing that everyone was going to discuss military intelligence, she would not show up for no reason.

Unless...she wants to say something about what is being discussed this time.

In his opinion, Xu Zhao came from another world, and she might give everyone present a surprise.

Deputy General Wang had a bad temper and would explode at the slightest provocation: "Why, is this Miss Xu your mistress? I'm saying something that makes you feel bad."

Shen Yu was also tolerant of Deputy General Wang because he had fought on the battlefield in recent years and had countless hidden injuries. But now he was bullying Xu Zhao directly, and it was inexplicable. He could not tolerate it.

"Deputy General Wang, you're overstepping your bounds." Shen Yu's voice was as cold as an ice cellar, and the air pressure plummeted. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell he was unhappy. "Miss Xu is my guest, and the one who discovered this military intelligence. No one is more qualified to stand here than she is."

"So, all of you, please be polite to Miss Xu!" He glanced coldly at all the deputy generals present, including Fang Xuren, and the atmosphere suddenly became heavy.

"Has it started?" Shen Lingge ran in from outside the tent in a hurry.

He had just received an order from his uncle, the emperor, to come to the commander-in-chief's tent to study.

But when he came in, why did he feel that the atmosphere was a bit solemn? Could it be that because he was late, the emperor's uncle was unhappy?

Shen Yu said in a cold voice, "You've come at the right time. Just stand aside and listen." After that, he set his sights on Xu Zhao.

Xu Zhao, who was standing aside, seemed like an outsider, as if they were not talking about her.

She didn't care about these things. After all, it wouldn't hurt her to be criticized. When she made her first movie, she became famous because of the white moonlight in people's memories. But she became famous too easily, and some people were jealous of her. During that period, while her fans increased, a large number of black fans also appeared.

One black fan cursed ten times, and with so many black fans, they almost flooded her comment section.

Does she care?

Absolutely not!

Why should he care about the opinions of unimportant people?

"You should have finished talking. Then it's my turn." Xu Zhao saw Shen Yu sitting on the chair behind the desk, so she also moved a stool and sat next to the desk.

Don't care about the thoughts of people around you.

After being warned by Shen Yu, Deputy General Wang saw this situation and dared not say a word. His eyes bulged out and he stared at Xu Zhao fiercely.

After Xu Zhao sat down, he glanced at the faces of several deputy generals. Except for Fang Xuren, the others looked very bad.

"Today, the prince and I went out into the city and discovered..."

Xu Zhao told everyone about their discovery in the rare goods shop.

"You're saying Chatur loves a raccoon so much that he'd risk his men entering the city just to buy a few red carp?" Vice General Wang was the first to question this. "How absurd!"

The other deputy generals were whispering to each other.

This was the first time they had heard of such a fantastic thing, and what's more, they didn't believe that Chatur would do this for the raccoon slave.

Everyone who has fought against Chatur knows what kind of person he is.

They had to admit that Chatur was indeed a brave and skilled fighter. If they were not hostile to him, they would still admire Chatur.

"Just because you don't know doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The red carps that were bought are the best evidence." Xu Zhao said indifferently.

People always question the unknown, which Xu Zhao can understand and is willing to give them answers. However, if they remain stubborn after the answers, then it is a deliberate targeting.

"What can a few red carps prove? What's more, you are the only one who saw it. Who can prove that the person who bought the red carp is from Mobei?" Deputy General Wang retorted.

Shen Yu frowned in displeasure. He didn't want to admit that such a stupid deputy general was his subordinate.

"Why do you have so many questions?" Xu Zhao didn't want to conflict with Deputy General Wang, but Fang Xuren would not tolerate him and confronted him directly.

The two of them were arguing and giving her a headache. Xu Zhao continued, "We'll know whether they're from Mobei after five days of verification."

"During these five days, we need several people who are good at stalking and tracking to keep an eye on the rare goods shop. Of course, this person must also be good at martial arts. After five days, as long as the customer who wants to buy red carp arrives, the tracking person will be responsible for following him."

"First, find out where Tuchar's commander is camped, sneak in, and kill him with one strike. At this point, if our army launches an attack, the Mobei Kingdom will be leaderless. If they discover their commander is already beheaded, they'll likely lose their composure without our help."

"Great idea!" Fang Xuren couldn't help but praise after hearing this. "This way, with this red carp, we can easily locate Chatur's camp."

You know, sneaking into the enemy camp is a risky thing. If you search every tent, the risk of being exposed will be very high.

After hearing Xu Zhao's plans, Deputy General Wang, who had originally been prejudiced against her, lost his arrogance.
