"I am in the capital, I wish you to conquer the world and be invincible, and return as a young man!"
Nangong Xian listened in a daze as Dugu Jie gave her the blessing. She slowly raised her head and met Dugu Jie's affectionate eyes. Her heart ached slightly.
Gripping the bow tightly, Nangong Xian knelt down, raised the Sun Chaser Arrow, and kowtowed in gratitude, "Your Highness, I kneel to thank you for not marrying me!"
Her face was pious and her tone was serious. She immediately swore an oath: "Your Highness, Nangong Xian is willing to be your most loyal soldier and protect every inch of the Luo Dynasty's territory for your Highness!"
"As long as I am here, the Luo Dynasty will remain intact!"
"As long as I am here, Your Highness will be free from worries for the rest of the day!"
Dugu Jie closed his eyes and growled in a trembling voice, "Get out of here!"
Nangong Xian knelt on the ground, his hands trembling, but he did not get up and roll away.
The person who yelled at Nangong Xian to get out turned around and ran away first. Dugu Jie was afraid that if he stayed for another second, he would regret it, so he couldn't help but hold Nangong Xian's head and rub her into his arms.
That was the only time Nangong Xian witnessed Dugu Jie's departing figure. For the rest of her life, Dugu Jie would always watch her leave for battle.
So heroic and domineering.

Nangong Xian returned to the general's mansion, but she couldn't calm down for a long time.
Ying'er muttered to herself, "I don't know if Zhan'er will come again after she returns to the palace this time. I miss her a lot." Although the girl was taciturn and a little timid, she was very easy-going and didn't talk much. It was most reassuring to be friends with her.
When Nangong Xian heard this, she said, "Zhan'er will never come again."
"Huh? Why?"
"He's gone back to the Queen's place to do some work." Nangong Xian stood up and walked towards the shower room, saying as she walked, "Ying'er, pack my bags for me. I'm going to lead my troops to the north!"
Ying'er was shocked. "Miss, are you really going?"
"go!"
In the main hall in the front yard.
The miraculous doctor Zhou the Blind was sitting on a wooden chair, and a servant beside him was politely pouring tea for him.
Madam Nangong sat at the top. She smiled and said to Blind Zhou, "Mr. Zhou, you are our Xian'er's lucky man. If you hadn't saved her back then, there would be no Xian'er in this world."
Blind Zhou was a blind man with an ordinary, easygoing appearance. He smiled modestly upon hearing this and said, "That was Miss Nangong's own good fortune." Touching the blind man's cane in his hand, Blind Zhou couldn't help but ask, "I wonder what the Madam sent to summon me today to tell you?"
Madam Nangong then said, "This is what happened, Mr. Zhou. My daughter will lead the troops to the north to quell the war tomorrow. As a mother, I am naturally worried. Swords are merciless, and casualties are inevitable on the battlefield. Xian'er is young and has no combat experience, so I would like to find a military doctor for her."
"I heard that Mr. Zhou has several outstanding disciples. I would like to ask Mr. Zhou to reluctantly choose one of his students to accompany my daughter to the battle."
"So that's what it's about." Blind Zhou stroked his long beard and said after a moment, "I have four students, and my eldest disciple is the smartest. He has no parents. I met him by chance while treating a patient in the suburbs, so I brought him home and raised him. He has the purest heart and the most sophisticated medical skills. I think it would be most appropriate to send him to accompany Miss Nangong on the expedition."
Madam Nangong was delighted and quickly stood up, bowing respectfully to Blind Zhou. "Thank you, Mr. Zhou!"
After Nangong Xian took a bath and changed his clothes, he put on his military uniform and walked to the front hall. He saw Blind Zhou and a young man standing in the front hall and talking to his mother.
Nangong Xian asked loudly: "Mother, Mr. Zhou, what are you talking about?"
Madam Nangong smiled and extended her left hand towards Nangong Xian. Nangong Xian placed her palm on it, and her mother grasped it tightly. Unaware of her husband's fate, and knowing her daughter would be leading troops into battle again tomorrow, Madam Nangong felt a pang of reluctance.
But national stability is more important than anything else.
Although Madam Nangong was extremely reluctant, she could not stop Nangong Xian from going to war. Madam Nangong pulled Nangong Xian to her side and said to her, "Xian'er, this is the military doctor I asked Mr. Zhou to pick for you. He will go with you to the battle."
Hearing this, the young man behind Mr. Zhou hurried out, bowed to Nangong Xian, and said respectfully: "I am Mo Liansheng, the humble man, and I pay my respects to General Nangong."
Nangong Xian was going to lead the troops to fight, and the emperor appointed her as a lieutenant general, which was also called the title of "little general". Nangong Xian nodded and said, "Raise your head."
Mo Liansheng slowly raised his head, revealing a somewhat pale face.
Seeing him, Nangong Xian suddenly thought of Dugu Jie. Both Mo Liansheng and Dugu Jie had the same feminine, beautiful, and delicate appearance. The difference was that although Dugu Jie's appearance gave people a sense of delicateness, his aura was too strong and his eyes were full of majesty. Therefore, no one dared to underestimate him.
But Mo Liansheng did not have the same strong aura as Dugu Jie. He looked weak and had a very easy-going temperament. His voice was gentle, like warm water, which was very comfortable.
Nangong Xian stared at Mo Liansheng for a moment, then suddenly said, "Were you the one who was besieged by a pack of wolves on the Beiye Mountain last year?"
Mo Liansheng was delighted to see Nangong Xian recognize him, and quickly responded, "It's me! I didn't expect General Nangong to recognize me. I've never had the chance to repay you for saving my life that day, and now I'm fortunate to be able to accompany you on your campaign. General Nangong, if you don't mind, I'd like to accompany you and do my bit to repay you."
Last year on Beiye Mountain, Mo Liansheng encountered a group of hungry wolves while collecting herbs. Fortunately, he met Nangong Xian who had just returned from hunting and risked his life to save his life.
