Chapter 242: Chapter 242: How Could It Be Him

Jie Chen suddenly stood up, “Negotiate with them? What do they want?”

Skinny Monkey shook his head, looking puzzled, “This subordinate is also not sure.”

Jie Chen and Xiang Ying exchanged glances.

Could it be that the sick refugees knew that Xiang Ying could cure the epidemic?

Xiang Ying nodded, “I’ll go and see what they want.”

Jie Chen grabbed her wrist in a hurry, “Don’t go, they are all infected with the epidemic, it’s not safe.”

Xiang Ying turned, smiling tenderly at him.

“You were sick before too, and we were close for many days, didn’t I remain fine?”

The word ‘close’ was bitten by her red lips with a special aning.

Jie Chen’s ears reddened, and his grip on her loosened.

Xiang Ying turned back, soothingly patted his chest.

“Didn’t you hear? These people have occupied the City Garrison Mansion. If I go and resolve this matter, you will have another rit in front of your Father.”

Jie Chen frowned, “Xiang Ying, I don’t hate that you make sacrifices for , but every ti you do so, I only feel more incapable.”

She always considered everything for him, helping to stabilize his position and authority along the way.

But he wanted to do sothing for her too.

Xiang Ying lifted her hand, smiling as she pinched his cheek, “Haven’t you already repaid ?”

The look in her Phoenix Eyes, just like the frantic nights of the past few days, was sparkling with captivating starlight.

Jie Chen instantly understood what she was talking about.

He objected even more, “Don’t treat like one of your male concubines, I am different from them.”

Xiang Ying scoffed with a laugh, “Right, the past loved every person I saw, but it’s different now, you are the one I love the most.”

She wrapped her arms around Jie Chen’s neck, and he naturally embraced her waist, bowing his head to nuzzle her ear, whispering to each other for quite a while.

On the side, Skinny Monkey lowered his head, feeling as if he was in a frying pan.

What was going on! Wasn’t he here to report an urgent matter? How co the Vice General was hugging his sister-in-law again!

Just when Skinny Monkey thought they were about to kiss on the spot, Xiang Ying turned around.

“Let’s go, let’s see what these refugees want.”

She tightened her cloak and walked out of the tent.

Once mounted on the horse, Jie Chen followed suit.

The soldiers watched as Xiang Ying, with a resounding neigh, galloped away with countless iron cavalry.

Her fluttering cloak was a brilliant crimson, like the only warmth in the vast snowy landscape.

Xiang Li stood outside the house, watching the direction Xiang Ying left, his eyes dark and deep, finally letting out a soft sigh.

“Even if you are not Ayin, I will be relieved now.”

…

Xiang Ying galloped all the way, leading people to the vicinity of the City Garrison Mansion.

The area was already surrounded by the troops of Marching General Bu Feng.

Xiang Ying looked around, the soldiers were not many, basically about thirty people.

She dismounted, and together with Jie Chen, stepped forward. As Bu Feng saw their figures, he imdiately ca over to greet them.

“Vice General,” seeing Xiang Ying, Bu Feng bowed even more respectfully, “Benefactor, please accept my gratitude, thank you for saving my wife and daughter!”

He was about to kneel when Xiang Ying imdiately reached out to support him.

“Lord Bu, there’s no need for thanks for such a small matter, saving lives is what should be done. Tell us what’s going on here first.”

Bu Feng nodded gravely, saying: “The infected populace sohow managed to pass ssages amongst themselves and taking advantage of their illness, they attacked my soldiers the night before last.”

Hearing what happened, Xiang Ying raised her eyebrows in surprise.

She had used an invisible drone to observe the place where the infected citizens were detained, and all the yards were spaced out one after the other.

The patrolling was stringent, and the soldiers were all ard with crossbows.

Logically speaking, these citizens should not have had any chance to communicate; if they could run, they would have done so long ago; why wait until now?

However, the current situation was such that these people not only gathered together but also realized that being diseased, they themselves were weapons.

Without needing any weapons or martial arts, they only had to fearlessly throw themselves at the soldiers in a hug, and the soldiers would flee in terror.

Bu Feng ntioned that using this thod, the infected had managed to steal a lot of armors and crossbows and now they had weapons in their hands.

Once ard, they headed straight for the City Garrison Mansion.

The City Garrison Mansion used to be the most tightly guarded place, but not anymore.

The City Garrison Commander, having fallen gravely ill from the epidemic, had infected his whole family.

Even the butlers and servants were not spared.

Normally, Bu Feng would station two teams of his n there, totaling up to twenty people.

Given the imnse number of these diseased citizens, it is self-evident that when they stord in collectively, those twenty n were naturally no match.

Jie Chen analyzed coldly: “These people are clever. Despite the freezing cold, they did not flee the city but occupied the City Garrison Mansion directly, knowing his life is valuable and thinking to trade it for conditions.”

Bu Feng nodded heavily: “Yes, however, they only asked to see Xiang Ying, and moreover, demanded that she enter alone.”

Jie Chen spoke sharply: “Absolutely not. They must have heard that Xiang Ying can cure the epidemic. I cannot be at ease letting her face so many sick alone.”

Bu Feng pursed his lips and didn’t speak, instead turning to gauge Xiang Ying’s expression.

She seed slightly absent-minded, staring ahead.

Bu Feng thought she was contemplating, but only Jie Chen knew that every ti Xiang Ying entered her Qiankun Bag, this was the expression she had.

It’s undeniable that Jie Chen understood her very well; inside the space, Xiang Ying was manipulating the invisible drone to fly above the City Garrison Mansion, observing downward.

In the vast mansion, each yard had patrols.

These ill citizens coughed incessantly, sotis vomiting blood, but all of them wrapped it up in cloths they carried.

There seed to be rules among themselves not to spit the dirty blood on the ground.

Xiang Ying flew the drone around and noticed that only the front yard near the doorway was sowhat unguarded, manned by only five seemingly less symptomatic able-bodied young n holding crossbows.

She probably had a plan in mind, recalled the drone, and blinked twice.

“I’ll go in by myself, it’s fine.”

Jie Chen frowned: “Xiang Ying!”

She raised her hand, stopping his words: “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing; there won’t be any danger.”

Bu Feng handed her a signal firework.

“Keep this on you, and if there’s danger, ignite it.”

Xiang Ying nodded, then stepped forward and knocked on the door, calling out: “Who wants to see ? I am here now; open the door!”

Chaotic footsteps ca from inside, and after a mont, the door cracked open slightly.

Soone warily peeked outside, confirming that it was only Xiang Ying, while Bu Feng and the rest stood far back.

The door then fully opened, and the man moved aside: “Co in.”

Once the door closed, Jie Chen stealthily scaled the wall and entered the courtyard.

He couldn’t possibly let Xiang Ying face this alone.

Inside the courtyard, Xiang Ying was led by a man holding a crossbow: “Follow .”

She passed through layers of corridors, and in the pavilion, she saw a familiar figure.

Why is it him?
