When his sister brought it up again, he quickly said, "No, please don't say it anymore."
Jin Changge's gaze remained fixed on Jin Jiande's face. Seeing the fear in his eyes, she immediately shut her mouth and said nothing more.
But after a few breaths, she couldn't help but ask:
"Second brother, did Qin Ze really plant so many troops in the mountains? How many did you see?"
Seeing that his younger sister also doubted his words, Jin Jiande's anger flared up again.
"Of course there are! There are people everywhere, all over the mountains and fields!"
"In that situation, how could I possibly count them? If I hadn't led the Thousand Machine Battalion in a fierce battle, carving a bloody path through the enemy lines, I would have been dead long ago."
"It's a pity I didn't kill that traitor in the chaos. If he hadn't had so many soldiers around him, even if we lost, I could have taken his head!" Jin Jiande gritted his teeth and began to fantasize.
Jin Changge raised an eyebrow and asked cautiously, "Second Brother, you fought Qin Ze head-on? How is he now?"
How could Jin Jiande possibly admit that he was being chased all the way through Yanluo Mountain and hadn't even seen Qin Ze?

Without the slightest hesitation, he blurted out, "Hmph, what else can they do? If it weren't for the fact that the traitor has many soldiers and fierce generals protecting him, he would have been killed at will!"
"The rebels occupy the terrain and have a large army. If we were to fight them head-on on flat ground, I would have killed them long ago!"
Jin Changge lowered his eyes and continued to ask, "So, he wasn't even hurt?"
Still lost in his fantasy of dominating the battlefield, Jin Jiande continued to speak to himself:
"He caused me to lose a leg; one day, God will punish this traitor!"
"This wicked beast has committed countless evil deeds! He deserves a terrible death!"
Seeing that he was hurling insults and seemed to be ignoring what she was saying, Jin Changge rubbed her temples.
"Second brother, remember to eat. I'm leaving now."
Just as I reached the door, I heard Jin Jiande call out, "Change my blanket."
"No, call me a maid."
Jin Changge pursed her lips and agreed.
After summoning her maid, Jin Changge returned to her room, her furrowed brows sometimes relaxing and sometimes furrowing again.
After pondering for a long time, she took out dried sweet potatoes from her cloth bag and began to eat them heartily.
