"A vicious dog that only kills evil people, no matter how ruthless it is, is just using excessive methods and has a tainted private morality, but it will not affect its master."

"Yes, I understand."

Xiao Zhixing handed him the box that Madam Feng had given him, saying, "Take down those three, merge the Jianan Army into the Xiao Family Army, and you will be given another important task."

Feng Mo's eyes were filled with excitement. He took the box, kowtowed repeatedly, and said, "Yes, Your humble servant will do his utmost to accomplish Your Highness's important task."

He thought maliciously that his father, who had longed for the leopard talisman, never received it before his death, and that his father's spirit in heaven would surely be "happy."

Xiao Zhixing tossed him a bottle of Heavenly Grade potion, "Be careful, take your time."

Killing Feng Lizhen and his two companions was easy, but seizing control of the army smoothly and gaining the obedience of the soldiers was not so simple.

This is also a test for him; if he fails to accomplish this, he will have no choice but to die.

Of course, she would also make other arrangements. She couldn't rely solely on Feng Mo. If things didn't work out with him, she would continue to take action on the other side.

Feng Mo held the porcelain bottle, breathing rapidly, "Yes, this subordinate will be careful."

After leaving Jianan Pass, Xiao Zhixing met with the navy in the south and ordered them to continue sailing along the southern coast, training their troops while providing support for her.

"Your Highness, rest assured, I know this place very well, and nothing can escape my eyes."

The lean, middle-aged man had piercing eyes and spoke with a strong southern accent.

This man is named Guan Dahai. He is a skilled naval general whom Xiong Chumo found in the south. His entire tribe lives by water, but they have been oppressed by the southern barbarians for many years. During one of their rebellions, they fled to the border and were rescued by Xiong Chumo.

After the facts were verified, their entire clan was sent to Bohai and became soldiers in the Beizhou Navy.

After more than a year of training, Guan Dahai and several other members of his clan stood out and were officially entrusted with important responsibilities by Xiao Zhixing.

Watching Xiao Zhixing leave, Guan Dahai gazed at the coastline of the Southern Barbarians and smiled grimly.

Southern barbarians, I have returned. I will surely avenge this blood feud.

Xiao Zhixing returned to Weixian County just before dawn.

She simply didn't sleep, and called Huo Baijun and a few others to exercise together. When the sun was high in the sky, the person in charge of looking after Feng Min came to report that he had woken up.

"Come on, let's go visit Prince Feng." Xiao Zhixing withdrew his attack, wiped his face with a cloth, and walked towards the courtyard where Feng Min was temporarily staying.

Huo Baijun, Xiong Chumo, and Mu Wan followed out of curiosity.

"Young Master Feng, I never imagined that we would meet again under these circumstances after our parting in Shengjing."

Xiao Zhixing stepped into the room and looked at Feng Min, who was lying there with a pale face and a deathly pallor.

His right leg had been amputated; it was incredibly fortunate that he was saved.

Feng Min slowly turned his head, his gaze sweeping over her, sinister and terrifying, cold and venomous.

Xiao Zhixing remained calm; this bit of malice had no effect on her whatsoever.

"If you ask me, Prince Feng was reckless. That Prefect Feng is quite skilled. You shouldn't have tried to kill him. You should have just waited for us to come and rescue you."

Feng Min's eyes were bloodshot, and his fingers gripped the bedsheet tightly, as if he was enduring her veiled sarcasm.

Xiao Zhixing didn't care about his mood and continued to poke at his heartstrings, "Sometimes you have to believe in fate. Maybe if you did too many bad things in your past life, you'll have a lot of bad luck in this life."

“Look, you could have been a member of our Gentleman’s Courtyard, but you missed the chance because of your illness.”

"Now, because of his eagerness to make a name for himself, he has lost a leg and become a cripple. In my opinion, Prince Feng should have his fortune told to see if he has offended the heavens in some way?"

Feng Min's tendons bulged from the exertion, and the gauze at the severed limb suddenly became stained red.

Without a doubt, this was caused by Xiao Zhixing.

No matter how much he tried to restrain himself, her words made his blood boil with anger.

Huo Baijun thought to himself, "Is Feng Min going to die of anger?"

Unexpectedly, this person had excellent endurance. After closing his eyes and taking a few deep breaths, he opened his eyes again and was calm again. "Prince Yuansheng, thanks to you for turning the tide and saving people from dire straits, I, on behalf of the people of Suzhou, thank you for your great kindness."

He awkwardly cupped his hands in greeting, his eyes full of gratitude, as if the person with the venomous look in his eyes had never appeared. "I'm afraid I'm ruined from now on. It's really fate playing tricks on me."

As she spoke, her eyes dimmed and filled with tears, showing a desperate look of utter despair.

At this moment, Li Jun led the others in, and they all remained silent upon seeing this.

Xiao Zhixing raised an eyebrow. If the other party weren't an enemy, she would definitely applaud him. His adaptability and patience were quite impressive.

"Your Highness, there's no need to be sad. Losing a leg doesn't mean you can't be an official. Look at Brother Nian and Brother Zhang, they're in wheelchairs but that doesn't stop them from serving the country. I believe you'll recover soon."

Xiao Zhixing offered sincere encouragement; to the uninformed, they would have seemed like very good friends.

Nian Chenghan replied innocently, "Uh, thanks to Your Highness for having Doctor Chen treat me, I can feel my legs again. I believe I will be able to stand up sooner or later."

On the way, Chen Liufang treated Zhang Lin as well, using Bai Su's acupuncture and herbal bath external application method from the future, which was remarkably effective.

Zhang Lin chimed in, "Yes, I understand that feeling all too well. I'm almost able to stand up now, and I really want to walk on solid ground right away."

Feng Min's anger, which he had just suppressed, surged again, and the gauze on his wound became a bright red stain.

Xiao Zhixing waved his hand, "Alright, alright, let's not disturb Prince Feng any longer. Let him get some rest."

We walked a short distance away.

Li Wenxiu couldn't help but burst into laughter again, "You guys are too naughty, I didn't realize that Brother Nian and Brother Zhang were the same way..."

How could it be ruined?

Nian Chenghan spoke with an air of magnanimity and integrity, saying, "I was just stating the facts. If he finds it offensive, then he must be overthinking it."

Zhang Lin smiled, "That's exactly right."

The group looked at each other and laughed.
