Soon the group arrived at the main hall!

Lin Ru very consciously took the seat of honor!

Ji Wenxuan was already used to it, so he sat in the lower seat!

Wu Ling stood obediently behind Lin Ru, acting as a background figure!

When Commander Qi saw the scene before him, he wasn't surprised at all! It was exactly what he had initially thought!

If Lin Ru were sitting below, he wouldn't be nearly as surprised!

After he sat down, he first looked around to make sure there were no other people around before getting down to business!

"Miss Lin! I'll be frank, the reason I came here is to burn the grain supplies!"

"My men and close friends have all been arrested by Prince Nashun!"

"So we have no choice but to do as he says!"

"If a fire breaks out in the city, it will be the signal for his attack!"

"I wonder how you plan to respond next!"

Lin Ru thought about it and felt that what he meant by those words was still a test!

His meaning was that he couldn't allow his men and close friends to be killed, but he also had to deal with the Prince of Shun's attack on the city!

In fact, she had already come up with a plan to deal with the Shunwang Project!

But time is too tight right now. She's only been here a few days and hasn't figured out many things yet! Let alone arranging for them to fight!

Moreover, there are many officials in Shanping County, including the prefect, the assistant prefect, and many other officials!

If these people aren't subdued, they'll be a problem in the future!

Fortunately, Commandant Qi returned, and judging from his appearance, he seems to be on their side. Moreover, he has a very high tolerance for change and is accepting of the fact that a young girl like her killed the prefect!

Moreover, her sitting in the main seat these few times can be considered a kind of test!

The person below didn't react at all, as if that was how it was supposed to be!

This left her somewhat puzzled!

After all, in this era, both men and women have deeply ingrained stereotypes about women!

It's already incredibly difficult to make a change!

But the person in front of him looked completely at ease!

She thought about it carefully!

Finally, he said, "As long as you cooperate with me, the Prince of Shun's counterattack is nothing to fear!"

"If we can hold out against him for two or three days, he will definitely withdraw his troops!"

Commander Qi raised an eyebrow in surprise!

How can you be so sure?

Lin Ru used some tricks to get herself here and had the prefect send a message by carrier pigeon to the people in the capital!

I'm calculating the time; it should have arrived by now!

Even if those people are unwilling to take action, they absolutely do not want to see the Prince of Shun's family become the sole power!

Even if Kyoto doesn't intervene, Prince Kang, who is standing nearby, will definitely make a move!

After all, based on what she knew before, this prefect not only sent a letter by carrier pigeon to the capital, but also wrote a letter to Prince Kang and sent it by carrier pigeon!

This can be considered doing both things at once!

He was increasingly surprised by what Qi Duwei said. He had guessed that the girl in front of him was smart, but he did not expect her to be so smart and to have such a deep understanding of human nature!

However, this little girl was still a bit presumptuous. Although those people might send troops, she also said that she would hold out for two or three days. With the small number of troops they had, let alone two or three days, they might not even be able to stop for a day!

After all, Prince Shun had two battle-hardened generals who were very familiar with siege warfare, and their siege weapons, the catapults, had been modified!

Although Shanping County is protected by a moat, if these people sneak in and poison the moat, they will probably be wiped out without even having to attack!

He frowned slightly and asked, "How do you plan to get through these two or three days?"

Lin Ru smiled mysteriously!

"I have a lot of ideas, but time is tight right now, and there are many things that can't be manufactured!"

"But perhaps Heaven took pity on the people of our city, or perhaps the Prince of Shun committed so many evils that even Heaven could no longer bear to see it!"

"He gave me a weapon while I was sleeping!"

"As long as you continue to treat your subordinates and deploy your troops as usual!"

"If we can lure Prince Shun to within a thousand meters of our city walls, I'm confident I can use the divinely bestowed treasure to kill this beast in one fell swoop!"

When Ji Wenxuan heard Lin Ru's words, his eyebrows twitched violently. He never expected that the usually composed Miss Lin would fabricate such a story in order to get Commander Qi to personally lead the troops!

Qi Duwei clearly thought the same thing. He was starting to doubt whether he had misjudged the person. But then he thought again, it was quite remarkable that this young girl was so smart and courageous at her age!

She was naturally not surprised by the battle between the two armies, and given the notorious reputation of Prince Shun, it was understandable that she was a little afraid!

But this little girl was talking nonsense with a straight face! She wasn't flustered or guilty at all!

With this kind of attitude, his spoiled brats should already learn something!

He smiled somewhat helplessly.

"Miss Lin! Some things you can't say carelessly!"

"You must understand! A single word from the commander can decide the life or death of tens of thousands of soldiers!"

"The lives of all the people in this city are in our hands!"

"We still need to be extremely cautious!"

"Don't make these ridiculous jokes!"

Lin Ru knew perfectly well that they wouldn't believe what she was saying!

She smiled and said, "Don't worry, sir! I, Lin Ru, never joke!"

"If you don't believe me, just wait and see!"

"I will make you all admit defeat!"

Seeing her so serious expression, Commander Qi didn't say anything more, but he felt that he had placed too high expectations on this young girl!

Defending the city was his duty!

We can't just abandon this matter because a smart girl has suddenly appeared!

This girl has no responsibility!

So he could only nod.

"Alright!"

"By the way! The Prince of Shun on the other side has two generals. One of them is Fu Bin, who is ruthless and cunning, and has the kind of mindless loyalty to the Prince of Shun!"

"His men are just like him. All the evil deeds you've heard about were done by him and his men!"

"He's just like his master, Prince Shun, who takes pleasure in humiliating women!"

"And the other general is called Hai Jingming! This guy is a bit strange! I've basically never seen him since I was captured!"

"However, this man's ability to lead troops is exceptional! Even Fu Bin has to admire him!"

"When Prince Shun led his troops here, he encountered many tough opponents, but Hai Jingming managed to take them all down!"

"This guy just doesn't have anything going on; he just likes to eat and chant Buddhist prayers! It feels like he's about to become a monk!"

"It might be because of the journey we've taken!"
