Women disguised as men went to the battlefield and the emperor bowed down in submission.

Xiuyi said, "Go and make a seafood feast, I'm not full."

Lin Ruoshui smiled and kissed Xiu Yi's chin, saying, "Okay, let's do it now."

Xiu Yi's face flushed with desire, but he suppressed it.

She saw Lin Ruoshui walk away.

Xiu Yi struck out with her palm, and the newly replaced tent collapsed with a loud crash.

The four men who were elegantly eating noodles inside were suddenly thrown inside.

Just as Lingye was about to take a bite of the noodles, they were smashed into his mouth before they even reached his lips.

He shouted angrily, "Xiuyi! You just wait!"

When Lin Ruoshui brought the charcoal and grill to the tent, she found that the layout inside had changed again.

So she asked, "Have you changed tents again?"

Xiu Yi smiled and asked, "Is everything ready? Are we going to roast it in this tent?"

Lin Ruoshui said, "Yes, we grill and cook at the same time."

The four men, their faces so dark they could drip water, gritted their teeth as they stared at Xiu Yi.

Xiu Yi acted as if nothing had happened and said very naturally, "I'll help."

Drunken crab, garlic scallops, lobster with scallions and ginger, octopus on a hot plate, braised croaker chunks, braised ribbonfish with mushrooms, clams with scallion oil, and braised shrimp.

As the various seafood dishes were served, an emperor, a prince, two princes, and a top martial arts master were all stunned.

Although they had tasted all kinds of delicacies, they had never seen these dishes before.

During the barbecue break, Lin Ruoshui also sliced ​​sashimi and stewed abalone.

The delicious aroma of the food made their mouths water, their appetites whetted, and they devoured it with gusto.

This table of delicacies is filled with unique charm in every dish.

The fresh shrimp turn an enticing red color after roasting, and are tender and juicy; the clams have a soft texture and exude a subtle ocean aroma after cooking.

The abalone was stewed to perfection, with a chewy texture and an intoxicatingly rich seafood flavor.

After elegantly finishing his meal, Ouyang Xuri said, "Yingying, I swear I will marry you."

Upon hearing this, Lin Ruoshui choked on the abalone in her mouth, and her face turned from white to purple.

Xiu Yi was so frightened that she hurriedly patted Lin Ruoshui's back, and Lin Ruoshui's face turned increasingly purple.

Ling Ye pushed Xiu Yi aside and used the standard Heimlich maneuver.

He stood with his front leg bent and his back leg on the ground, then had Lin Ruoshui sit on his bent thighs and lean her body slightly forward.

He wrapped his arms around Lin Ruoshui's waist, then made a fist with his right hand and pressed the tiger's mouth side tightly against Lin Ruoshui's upper abdomen.

Then, cover the right fist with the left hand and repeatedly press hard on Lin Ruoshui's upper abdomen with the tiger's mouth until Lin Ruoshui spits out the abalone.

Seeing that Lin Ruoshui's complexion had improved, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Ouyang Xuri, this troublemaker, was tortured a hundred times by several gazes before he automatically reformed.

He said to Lin Ruoshui, "I didn't expect you to be so shocked. It seems I haven't confessed my feelings enough before."

Before Ouyang Xuri could finish speaking, Xiu Yi and Ling Ye attacked him, throwing him out of the tent.

Xiu Yi helped Lin Ruoshui up and asked, "How are you?"

Lin Ruoshui's eyes reddened, and she said awkwardly, "It's alright."

Lin Ruoshui felt that choking on abalone was definitely a dark chapter in her life.

……

The First Army rested for a day and set off for the next city, Humusa, the following day.

Lin Ruoshui gazed at the map inside the large tent.

Baili Heng walked in and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Lin Ruoshui replied, "We'll reach the capital of Longquan Kingdom when we're halfway there."

Baili Heng said, "Yes, it will be very soon. I estimate that we will conquer Longquan Kingdom when spring arrives and flowers bloom."

Lin Ruoshui put her hands behind her back, looked at the location of the capital of Longquan Kingdom, and gave a bitter smile.

Baili Heng felt a pang of pain in his heart and said, "Let's gather everyone together to discuss the attack plan for Humusa."

Baili Heng summoned everyone to the main tent for a meeting.

Lingye was testing the pistols and bolt-action rifles he had made at the shooting range in the mountains.

The effective range of a pistol can reach 50 meters, while the effective range of a bolt-action rifle can reach 180 meters.

Lingye was overjoyed when the final experiment ended.

If he had such a powerful weapon during the battle for the throne, he probably wouldn't lose even if his father, the emperor, took action. No, he definitely wouldn't lose.

Fortunately, it's not too late now. With guns and bombs, seizing the throne would be a piece of cake for him. But he doesn't want to leave now, nor does he want to be that damn emperor anymore.

His only goal was to possess that extraordinary woman.

Just as he thought of this, his confidant Jinrong appeared.

Jinrong knelt down to pay respects to his master.

Ling Ye knew why she had come, so he said, "I'm not planning to go back right now."

Jinrong said, "His Majesty is currently seriously ill and may not have much time left."

Ling Ye paused, thinking to himself, "My father has always been in good health; it's probably the Crown Prince who did the trick."

Jinrong continued to persuade him: "If you go back now, with the explosives and guns you have now, you will definitely be able to build a powerful armed force. The Crown Prince will definitely not be your match."

Ling Ye said, "Stop talking, my mind is made up."

Jinrong knelt down unwillingly and begged for forgiveness, saying, "Is it because of that General Ying that Master is unwilling to leave?"

Ling Ye's face turned cold as he said, "Jin Rong, you've overstepped your bounds!"

Jinrong said, "Your subordinate knows his mistake."

Jinrong left unwillingly, and harbored hatred for Yingyu.

One morning, Lingye woke up in Xiuyi's arms again.

He lay in Xiuyi's arms as if it were nothing out of the ordinary, and asked, "Aren't you tired of sleeping like this every day?"

Xiu Yi pushed him away, ignored him, and went straight to find Lin Ruoshui.

Ling Ye got up and went outside the tent, stretching out a big yawn.

He couldn't help but curse Xiu Yi under his breath, thinking she was inhuman, always causing trouble and not afraid of kidney deficiency.

As he was thinking, a soldier came over with a bowl of porridge and said, "General, this is your porridge."

Ling Ye looked at the soldier and thought he seemed familiar. He said, "You, raise your head."

The soldier looked up and asked, "What is it, Commander?"

Ling Ye was surprised; it was Jin Rong.

What is Jinrong planning to do by disguising himself as a soldier and approaching Lin Ruoshui?

Before he could figure it out, Jinrong revealed the dagger she had placed under the tray, and she stabbed Ling Ye with it.

Ling Ye reacted quickly and struck Jin Rong with a palm.

Jinrong collapsed to the ground, his internal organs damaged, and he coughed up blood.

Just then, Xiu Yi arrived carrying Lin Ruoshui. They glanced at each other and understood the gist of it.

Jinrong glanced at Lingye in Xiuyi's arms, then lowered her head and remained silent.

Lin Ruoshui asked, "Why did you want to kill the military commander?"

To avoid exposing Ling Ye's secret, Jin Rong bit into the poison in her mouth and committed suicide.

Ling Ye tried to stop him, but it was too late.

Xiu Yi and Lin Ruoshui observed Ling Ye's expression and made a guess in their minds.

After Baili Heng learned of this, he ordered his men to tear Jinrong's body apart in public as a warning to others.
