Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Chu Yue entered Dingzhou City that very night, together with Huo Qing.

But apart from a very few people, no one else knew about it, including the entire army.

"If you have Major General Chu as your double and keep him in the army, what if it gets discovered? Won't that further damage the morale of the soldiers?"

Liu Yun was genuinely worried. He was supposed to stay in the military camp with Jing Lei to cover for Chu Lingshan.

But he was really worried about the princess.

In particular, now we finally know that the princess is pregnant with the prince's child.

He became even more worried.

Even Jing Lei was unaware of this matter.

But he would have to stay by the princess's side from now on, and the princess was afraid that she couldn't keep it a secret any longer, so she thought it would be better to tell him the truth sooner rather than later.

Now, besides Huo Qing, Chu Yueli only has Liu Yun and Zi Su by her side, as well as the Ninth Prince who will never leave her.

Chu Yi was sent out to relay messages to her at any time.

Chu Yi is also currently responsible for relaying messages between Ning Anran's people, so he is basically elusive and rarely seen.

Huo Qing reassured her, "Don't worry, I believe in Major General Chu's abilities. She can handle it. Besides, as long as we can hold out until Ali recovers and catches up with the army, she will have completed her mission. This mission shouldn't be too difficult."

After all, Chu Yueli was the commander-in-chief, and ordinary soldiers basically had no chance to see him.

Even with thunder present, it wouldn't let anyone disturb him.

"Third Aunt, you should go back now. I've taken the medicine and I'm feeling much better. After a few days of recuperation, I'll catch up with them. At our pace, it won't be difficult to catch up with the army."

Of course, this is on the premise that she can only rest in Dingzhou for a maximum of three days.

Three days later, it's time to set off.

"Tomorrow, Jing Lei and Major General Chu will lead the army directly to Sukelu without entering Dingzhou to join Second Aunt's troops. Second Aunt, please also assemble your troops and set off early tomorrow morning. See you at Sukelu!"

Huo Qing is leading a group of new recruits, who are inherently more difficult to manage than veterans. In addition, with Chu Lingshan absent, she is now in a crucial position and will undoubtedly be even busier than before.

It's getting late, and it wouldn't be good to keep her running around outside.

After all, they are made of flesh and blood.

It's one thing for someone to fall ill, but we can't let another one fall ill.

Huo Qing understood the reasoning behind it, so she didn't refuse: "Then I'll go back first. Zisu, take good care of your young lady."

"I understand, Madam Qing, please rest assured." As Zisu saw her off, the two of them saw Lu Yunfei carrying the medicine, carefully walking back, as if he was extremely afraid that his steps were not steady enough and the medicine would spill from the bowl.

"Do I have to take medicine again?" Huo Qing was a little confused. Didn't she already take it just now?

Lu Yunfei seemed surprised to run into them. He instinctively tried to hide the medicine, but was afraid of accidentally spilling it.

Zisu hurriedly said, "Miss also prescribed herself some tonics. The medicine she just took was to treat her illness, but this bowl of tonics is to help her recover quickly."

Lu Yunfei didn't say anything. Zisu explained, and that was the end of it for him.

After nodding to Huo Qing, he carried the medicine into Chu Yueli's room and delivered it to her.

Zisu continued to lead Huo Qing away from the inn. Huo Qing said, "Medicine for treating illness and tonics cannot be mixed together. Your young lady is eager to get better, but the two medicines may clash, which is not necessarily a good thing."

Zisu quickly replied, "I understand! I will warn Miss!"
