After her mind was read, the spoiled brat became the darling of the whole group.

Xie Yuze paused, and before he knew it, the wine jug in his hand spilled onto the general who had spoken.

"hiss!"

The general gasped and roared, "What are you doing?!"

He slammed his hand on the table and stood up.

Upon seeing this, Xie Yuze immediately knelt down and apologized: "General, please calm down. I was careless for a moment."

"Please spare my life, General!"

The general snorted coldly, and, emboldened by the alcohol, drew his sword and pointed it at Xie Yuze.

Xie Yuze lowered his head, but his hands were behind his back as he prepared to draw the sword from his waist.

At this critical moment, a colleague stepped forward to stop him, saying, "Oh dear, it's just a small matter, why take a life?"

"Now is the time when we need manpower, so we shouldn't cause any trouble. If the adults find out, they will definitely blame us."

Upon hearing this, the general abandoned his intention to kill.

He stared coldly at Xie Yuze, kicked him in the chest, and said in a cold voice, "Consider yourself lucky. I'll punish you by making you kneel here all night!"

The kick landed squarely on Xie Yuze's chest, causing him to grit his teeth in pain.

He felt as if the stitches in his chest were about to burst, and blood flowed from the wound, soaking his undergarments.

Fortunately, the armor covering the outside concealed anything unusual.

Xie Yuze supported himself and knelt on the ground.

The group continued to drink and chat.

The general who had just kicked Xie Yuze pulled out a chicken leg and said, "The Yin family is getting more and more perfunctory these days, giving us less and less grain every month."

The Yin family?

Xie Yuze's eyes flickered.

Where is this Yin family located?

Could it be the Yin family of Pingzhou, one of the four great clans?

Xie Yuze's thoughts were churning. In his previous life, when Luo Hanfeng ascended to the throne, the Yin family seemed to have taken the lead in submitting to Luo Hanfeng, and even sent their daughter into the palace, which added a great sense of crisis to Xie Mingzhu.

At that time, Xie Yuze knew nothing and was being raised in the palace by Xie Mingzhu.

Xie Mingzhu seemed to have no one to talk to, and would come to Xie Yuze's house from time to time to pour out her troubles.

So the Yin family had already started making plans at this time?

Such a large private enterprise could not be maintained without a substantial financial foundation.

Xie Yuze made a mental note of the Yin family.

Just as the group was eating and drinking, someone came from outside to deliver a message:

"General, general!"

"It's terrible, General! The lord says someone has broken into the camp. We need to search the entire army now."

"Send a general and others to search the area."

Upon hearing this, the expressions on the faces of the generals all changed.

The group of people who were just drinking and chatting suddenly threw down their glasses and rushed outside, forgetting Xie Yuze who was still kneeling in the tent.

After Xie Yuze and the others all left, he immediately stood up.

There were only three people in this camp: him, Jun Lanjin, and Xie Xing. The fact that they were discovered must be because Xie Xing and the other two were exposed.

Since it's a full-scale military search, it means the two men haven't been captured.

Xie Yuze glanced at the mess on the ground, his eyes darted around, and he set the tent on fire. Then, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to this place, he secretly ran out of the tent.

The fire started to spread and grow larger.

Luo Hanfeng was originally searching for Xie Xing.

Suddenly a sound—

"Go away!"

It immediately drew everyone's attention.

The tents are not far apart, and if the fire is allowed to spread further, there will definitely be many losses.

The crowd was in a state of chaos and there was no time to search for the person whose appearance they did not even know.

Upon seeing this, Luo Hanfeng's expression turned cold.

Grand Tutor Gu hurriedly followed, and seeing Luo Hanfeng's gloomy face, he quickly asked, "Seventh Prince, what have you discovered?"

Luo Hanfeng said coldly, "Move out immediately after tonight!"

Since Xie Xing is involved, there must be others as well.

The three siblings, Xie Xing, Xie Tongchen, and Xie Yuze, are all not far from here. Since their private business was discovered in advance, we certainly can't catch them off guard.

Xie Mingzhu rushed up behind Luo Hanfeng and asked, "Hanfeng, who did you find out?"

Luo Hanfeng remained silent, his eyes fixed intently on Xie Mingzhu.

Xie Mingzhu met his dark gaze and took two steps back in fright.

But she quickly suppressed her fear, moved closer to Luo Hanfeng, and tugged at his sleeve.

"Han Feng?"

Luo Hanfeng snapped out of his daze and met Xie Mingzhu's gaze.

He took a deep breath and reassured Xie Mingzhu, "Mingzhu, it's alright. It's just that the person who broke into this military camp is probably not simple."

He did not mention Xie Xing's name.

He didn't even know who was with Xie Xing.

However, based on the corpses found at the exit earlier, it can be deduced that the damned Ghost King was also with Xie Xing.

Just thinking about how he should have kept Xie Xingyong imprisoned by his side forever, but was interrupted by that Ghost King, made Luo Hanfeng want to tear that damned Ghost King to pieces.

Luo Hanfeng's gaze grew even colder; beneath his calm, light brown eyes lay a barely suppressed madness.

Why is Xie Xing always surrounded by so many people?

Even if Jun Lanjin is gone, there is still the Ghost King, and even Wen Yan, who is interested in her.

Anyone can do it, so why can't he?

Isn't he the male protagonist?

Isn't he a chosen one?

Isn't he destined for greatness?!

Why does nothing ever go his way?

Why is it that nothing ever goes his way?

……

"Achoo!" On the other side, Xie Xing suddenly sneezed and felt a chill creep up his back.

She felt goosebumps all over her body, as if someone was secretly watching her.

"What's wrong?" Jun Lanjin pulled Xie Xing into his arms and stood on the top of a secluded tree, where the dense foliage concealed their figures.

Jun Lanjin glanced at the burning tents not far away and said calmly, "Your third brother attracted their attention by setting the fire."

"This has already alerted them. We don't need to wait any longer; we can let them in now."

Xie Xing looked at Jun Lanjin in surprise: "Do we have anyone with us?"

Jun Lan said slowly, "I had already sent a letter before I came here, summoning all the Fenglang Army members."

"They're waiting outside right now, just waiting for a signal."

Xie Xing was somewhat taken aback.

When was this made?

Jun Lanjin raised his hand and sent a signal into the air.

Coincidentally.

This place is surrounded by mountains on all sides. If the location were known, it would be very easy to take it from the outside.

The Fenglang Army is an army under Jun Lanjin, whose ruthlessness strikes fear into the hearts of all.

After all, he held a position second only to the emperor, so it's no wonder that many people were wary of Jun Lanjin.

In the story, Jun Lanjin's Fenglang Army forced the three kingdoms to retreat, establishing Chu's position as the leader of the four kingdoms.

However, after Jun Lanjin retired from the battlefield and became a powerful minister in the court, everyone forgot that he still had a formidable army under his command.
