Shen Rou has completed 100,000 sets of cotton coats and trousers. It is now the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, and the whole family will return to their hometown to celebrate the New Year in a few days.

The factory also stopped working due to heavy snow and will resume work in the spring of next year.

She saw that Ye Qing looked unhappy, "Ye Qing, why are you not feeling well?"

Ye Qing looked at Shen Rou, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself, which made Shen Rou feel a bad premonition.

"Ye Qing, is there something wrong?"

Ye Qing stammered, "Miss Shen, Master...Master...He was seriously injured."

"What's going on? Is it serious?"

"The master is in critical condition due to a severe poison. Han Lin has sent a message asking Divine Doctor Ye to come and treat the master."

"It's so serious, what does Doctor Ye say?"

"Doctor Ye is already packing up and leaving soon. When the master was conscious, he told Han Lin not to tell you, fearing that you would worry. But after thinking it over, I think it's better to tell you. After all, this matter cannot be concealed."

"Help me prepare the horse. I'll go with Doctor Ye. I'll go talk to Grandma for a few minutes and then I'll leave."

Shen Rou quickly ran back to her room to pack some personal belongings, went to the kitchen to get some instant noodles, and quickly ran to find her grandma.

"Grandma, I will follow Doctor Ye to the Youzhou military camp right away. I will leave the family home to you. Ye Qing will send you back home in a few days."

"Go! Grandma just heard from Doctor Ye that Yun Ting was injured. Go and take good care of him."

"Thank you, grandma."

At this time, Shen Xue came out with a bag on her back, "Sister, I'm going too."

"What are you going to do?"

"I am studying medicine now and will be working as a military doctor on the battlefield. This will allow me to get in touch with the wounded and improve my medical skills as quickly as possible."

"The battlefield is not a place for jokes. It's too dangerous for you to go there at such a young age."

"I'm going to be a military doctor, not to go to the battlefield. If Youzhou is conquered by Northern Yan, even I in Yunzhou will not be spared."

"And my master also agreed that I could become a military doctor. He also started out as a military doctor and gained experience step by step to achieve what he has today."

"Would you mind if we rode over there?"

"Sister, I'm not as good as you in martial arts, but I can ride a horse."

"OK then!"

"Grandma, Xiaonan is in your care. We will report back to Youzhou when we get there."

At this time, Shen Nan ran out and said, "Sister, as the only man in the family, I will also go to protect you and your second sister."

"Xiao Nan, stop messing around. We're not going to the battlefield to play. We'll be back after the Youzhou war is over. Just stay home and listen to grandma."

"Master Yang said that every man has a share of responsibility for the fate of his country. Everyone should protect their home and country. As a man, how can you back down?"

"I'm glad you have such ambitions, but you should wait until you grow up to defend your country. If I go now, it will only distract us."

Seeing Shen Rou's resolute attitude, Shen Nan had no choice but to give up. "Then go ahead! Be careful."

"Listen to grandma obediently."

"I see."

At this time, Ye Gucheng came over with a bag on his back, "Miss Shen, time is running out, can we go now?"

"Set off."

When they arrived at the door, Ye Qing prepared four horses for them. Shen Rou said, "Ye Qing, my house is now in your hands."

"Miss Shen, don't worry! I will safely send grandma and the others back to their hometown and then back to the military camp."

"Thank you."

Fang Yun came running over hurriedly, carrying a bag on his back. "Miss, there's food here. Don't worry, I will take good care of grandma and the young master."

"Thank you Fang Yun."

"Big girl, be careful."

Ye Gucheng, Shen Xue and Xu Yang had already climbed onto their horses. Shen Rou said goodbye to her grandmother and quickly mounted her horse, galloping away.

Although Shen Nan was unwilling to give up, he knew that his martial arts skills were too weak and that he would only be a burden to his elder sister if he went. So he made up his mind to practice hard and become a support for his elder and second sisters in the future.

Royal Palace

Chen Fu came over with a letter from Youzhou, "Your Majesty, news from Youzhou."

The emperor quickly opened the letter and took a look. His face suddenly darkened, his hands clenched into fists, revealing his veins, and there was a fierce look in his eyes.

"Cold Eagle..."

A man in black suddenly appeared in the hall and bowed, "I am here."

"Send fifty shadow guards to Youzhou to await orders from Prince Mu and the Third Prince."

"Yes."

"Xiao Qi..."

"The humble position is here."

"Send someone to closely monitor Qu Yi, Deng Peng, Fan Kun, and Ji Haoran. Report any movement in their mansion immediately."

"I humble my duty and obey the decree."

The emperor muttered quietly, "We brothers agreed that I would guard the country and you would guard the gates. Together we brothers will protect the Shangguan family's kingdom."

"Whoever dares to betray me and harm my son and brothers will have his entire clan exterminated."

Prime Minister Huo's Mansion

He sat in the study with a gloomy face. Ever since Huo Xi died and the warehouse was robbed, he still hadn't found out who did it, which made him extremely angry.

This thief was either familiar with the Huo Mansion or was someone inside the mansion, but the servants in the mansion checked one by one and could not find any clues, which made Prime Minister Huo angry and embarrassed.

At this time, a man came over and said, "I am here to see you, sir."

"how?"

"News has been sent back from Youzhou that King Mu has been seriously injured and will surely die soon."

Prime Minister Huo instantly revealed a sinister sneer, "Old Nine, don't blame your uncle for being ruthless. You have repeatedly hindered your uncle's important tasks. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being in cahoots with the emperor. You have become a stumbling block on your uncle's path forward. Without you, your uncle cannot move forward.

"By now, the Emperor should have received the news that Prince Mu was seriously injured. The Youzhou military camp is leaderless, so he will definitely send someone of high rank and power. Then the Crown Prince's chance will come."
