Chapter 316 Getting to Know

But Huyan Kule suddenly remembered that his youngest son had done nothing wrong, and had even provided him with a very good "empty city strategy". No matter what, he should not have lashed out at him.

So he smashed the wine cup on Huyan Ming.

The wine cup cracked with a crisp, loud sound.

Hu Yan frowned slightly.

He cupped his hands and said, "Father Khan, this matter is beyond redemption. The best course of action now is to think of ways to remedy it!"

Huyan Kule gritted his teeth: "What are your thoughts?"

Hu Yan said, "Your son believes that the most important thing is to stabilize the people's hearts. Father Khan can personally handle this, as for that unknown army..."

"My son is willing to personally lead troops to investigate."

Huyan Kule was surprised.

His elder brother, Huyan Ming, had wiped out an entire army of ten thousand soldiers.

How could he dare to propose leading troops at this critical juncture?

"Trust me, Father Khan," Huyan repeated, "I only need a thousand soldiers."

Huyan Kule pondered for a moment, then sighed and waved his hand: "Alright, it's your decision."

"But you must bring these thousand soldiers back to me! Don't let them turn out like your stupid brother."

The nobleman was surprised. Wasn't this... a bit too much to ask?

With only a thousand soldiers, we have to find out the enemy's background and bring them back!

Although Huyan Ming is the heir, this is still too much favoritism.

"Yes, Father Khan." Hu Yandan agreed without hesitation.

When Mu Feng returned to his tent and heard about this, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

"Ye Hu! You're insane! This is impossible to accomplish. Not only is it dangerous, but after what happened to ten thousand soldiers, morale will collapse!"

Hu Yan wiped his hands: "So now is the time for me to establish my authority."

“Mufeng, you know I came to Xixia late, which is why my father named me Chi (meaning 'late'). I think it won't be difficult for me to make meritorious contributions in Xixia, but it will be very difficult to establish prestige in the army.”

"Now is a good opportunity, and I shouldn't let it slip away."

Mu Feng understood what he meant, but he had followed Hu Yan for more than two years and was still worried: "Guard Ye, it's too dangerous."

Hu Yan walked to the table and picked up the mask.

The dark patterns on the mask shimmered and shone brightly in the firelight, making them exceptionally beautiful.

After a long while, he put it on.

“If you don’t enter the tiger’s den, you won’t catch the tiger’s cubs.”

……

Living in a stable is not much different from living in a tent.

Xiao Ran felt that her stable was exceptionally clean.

It was late at night, and the stables were empty except for the occasional patrolman who passed by.

She took a key from her pocket and unlocked the iron chain lock on the railing.

She stole it when Er Ya wasn't paying attention. Although she felt very sorry for Er Ya, Xiao Ran had no choice but to accept it.

This Western Xia was not her home.

The stable was quite large, so she bent down and quietly explored it.

Finally, they spotted Xiao Mu, looking disheveled, in an inconspicuous corner.

Her heart clenched instantly, and taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, she pounded on the railing.

She whispered, "Father."

Xiao Mu seemed to sense something, immediately turned around, and asked in surprise, "...Ran'er?"

"it's me."

"Ran'er! Are you alright?" Xiao Mu's words were full of concern.

"I'm fine! Hu Yanyi has been quite good to me. Father, how are you?"

Xiao Mu recalled: "Aside from not letting me bathe and change clothes... everything else was alright."

Xiao Ran then told Xiao Mu everything that had happened there.

Xiao Mu was first surprised, then astonished, and finally worried with some doubt.

"He just locked you in the stable, that's so strange... Ran'er, did you know Hu Yanyu before?"
