Shocking! Five men are in love with the same woman!

As for the other camps, Emperor Jingzhao will surely inform them to make improvements after He Jingchuan's report.

She believed that with these people's abilities, they would soon complete the improvements and apply them to the battlefield.

In that case, she had done her part for the Great Zhao Dynasty.

Not bad.

She has successfully completed her mission and can now retire gracefully.

Therefore, He Jingchuan was seeing her off from the camp at this moment.

Once outside the camp, only Lingyan, Yunmeng, and He Jingchuan remained.

Knowing they were about to say goodbye, Yunmeng said to Yingshuang and Yingdie, "The Crown Princess has some confidential matters to tell General He privately. Let's excuse ourselves for a moment."

Upon hearing this, Ying Shuang and Ying Die had no doubts whatsoever and immediately retreated far away from Yun Meng.

Anyway, with General He in the military camp, the Crown Princess will definitely not be in any danger.

After the three of them had retreated some distance, Lingyan looked at He Jingchuan and praised him with a smile, "It's been a long time since I've seen you in armor. You look so handsome, my General He."

At this moment, he stood tall and straight, like a proud pine tree standing atop a mountain.

His eyes were deep and unfathomable, with bright black pupils and a sharp, piercing gaze that seemed to see through everything.

Behind him, a red cloak fluttered in the wind, like the wings of a war god, adding to his dashing and heroic air.

His black hair was tied up high, and the ribbon holding it up fluttered gently in the wind.

He stood there, exuding an imposing aura, as if he were a war god from ancient legends, inspiring awe and submission in all who beheld him.

He Jingchuan blushed slightly upon hearing this, and coughed lightly before replying, "If you like to see it, I can wear it for you to see forever."

Lingyan shook her head after hearing this and said, "No need. Armor is a symbol of protecting the country and should not be used for such childish flirting. It carries the blood and mission of countless soldiers, not just an decoration to win a smile from a beautiful woman. When you wear armor, it is to protect the mountains and rivers of Dazhao and for the peace of the people. Although I am a woman, I understand the weight of this."

Upon hearing this, He Jingchuan looked solemn and respectful and said, "Indeed, this armor represents my responsibility and commitment."

Lingyan nodded in agreement.

She was just expressing her feelings; she didn't really want him to be like that every day.

She then skipped over the topic, raising an eyebrow and smiling playfully, "I'll have another surprise for you tonight, not dancing or singing, but something you've never seen before!"

Upon hearing this, He Jingchuan's face turned bright red.

His breathing was heavy, and his heart was beating unusually fast.

He then took a deep breath and replied, "I understand."

At this moment, he couldn't wait for night to come.

I was filled with anticipation and excitement.

Ling Yan chuckled softly upon hearing this, then replied, "Then I'll wait for you tonight."

He Jingchuan replied softly, "Mm."

He then stood there and watched her board the carriage and slowly depart.

Only when the carriage was finally out of sight did he manage to compose himself and turn back to the camp.

Meanwhile, someone who had been standing not far from them since the beginning also turned and left, looking dejected.

And their pace quickened and quickened until they were basically running without a care in the world.

Her mind was a jumbled mess, and she couldn't make sense of anything.

They could no longer see the road beneath their feet or ahead.

Today, she was supposed to be offering incense at a temple in front of us.

On her way back, she remembered that the Crown Princess would be going to He Jingchuan's camp today, so she decided to go and see her as well.

Mainly, she also had a great interest in weapons and wanted to know as soon as possible what improvements the Crown Princess would make.

Furthermore, since He Jingchuan was here, she naturally had to come and take a look.

But to her surprise, as soon as she arrived here, she saw the two of them coming out of the camp together.

She had intended to go up and greet them.

But unexpectedly, I heard the Crown Princess say those words.

What was even more unexpected was He Jingchuan's reaction.

He blushed and became so shy.

She had never seen He Jingchuan in such a state before.

And then the surprises they talked about afterwards left her speechless.

She knew then that their relationship was not legitimate.

She was a martial artist with considerable skill and internal strength, which allowed her to successfully conceal her presence from He Jingchuan.

Furthermore, it can accurately hear every word spoken between the two people, and every expression they make while speaking.

She saw everything clearly.

It is precisely because she sees things so clearly that she cannot deceive herself.

There was definitely something going on between them; they had an affair.

Moreover, judging from their conversation, His Highness the Crown Prince seemed to know about this matter and was even involved.

Her mind went blank, with only one thought echoing in her mind: How could this be? How could this be...

Her eyes were first filled with shock, a kind of stunned blankness as if her soul had been instantly ripped away.

She couldn't believe her eyes; it all seemed like a fantasy, a terrible nightmare.

"Impossible, impossible..." she murmured to herself, her voice barely audible, trembling with endless excitement.

Gradually, the shock turned into a self-deprecating bitter smile.

Looking back on her eight years of silent dedication, the unspoken love, and the sleepless nights she spent worrying about He Jingchuan, it all seems so ridiculous now.

She's such a fool, living in her own beautiful dream all this time.

Tears welled up in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall.

Then, her thoughts became chaotic, and various details from the past flashed through her mind like a revolving lantern.

She recalled those subtle moments they shared, those glances she had previously overlooked.

There were so many banquets and public occasions where clues could have been found, but she just couldn't see them.

Only now do I realize how blind she was.

Looking at the two people in front of her, a strange feeling suddenly welled up in her heart.

She felt that they looked so well-matched standing together.

She was surprised to find that it was perfectly reasonable for He Jingchuan to fall in love with the Crown Princess.

Is she crazy?

At this moment, sadness, despair, self-mockery, helplessness, and sudden realization...

Countless complex emotions swirled and intertwined in her heart, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

Her body began to tremble uncontrollably, her hands clenched into fists, her nails digging deep into her palms, yet she felt no pain.

She kept running, unaware of where she was.

All she knew was that when she stopped, she was already at the edge of a cliff.

Finally, she collapsed to the ground as if all her strength had been drained.

His eyes were vacant as he stared into the distance, motionless as if he had lost his soul.
