Xie Wanyun was even more worried about Yan Suizhi and Jin Bai. Unable to sit still in Shangjing City any longer, she went to the Empress Dowager and asked to go to the front lines.
The Queen Mother disagreed at first, but later, unable to resist her constant persuasion, she agreed and repeatedly reminded her to be careful.
After getting permission, Xie Wanyun immediately brought a lot of military supplies, medicinal herbs and other items to Blue Moon Pass.
The moment Yan Suizhi saw her, he was surprised, worried, and angry.
But now that I’m here, what can I do?
Xie Wanyun was more surprised to see Yan Suizhi. He seemed like a completely different person.
The original Yan Suizhi had been as gentle as jade, elegant and graceful. But the man standing before her now had skin that was no longer as white as before. It was darker, his face a dusty color. His eyes were piercing, and his gaze was awe-inspiring.
His every move was no longer as modest and measured as before, but rather vigorous and powerful.
He is almost a different person from before.
It seems that military camps and war can indeed inspire a man's blood.
"Mrs. Xie, don't you know that the front line is very dangerous? How can a woman like you come here?" Yan Suizhi asked with a serious face.
Yan Suizhi was reluctant to blame her, but he had to pretend to do so in front of all the generals.
"Military Advisor Yan, I came to Blue Moon Pass with the Queen Mother's approval. I'm not a weak woman, so I can also go into battle when necessary." Xie Wanyun responded loudly.
Xie Wanyun was anxious to inquire about Jin Bai's situation, wanting to know if the child was in the army. However, Yan Suizhi didn't mention a word. She didn't care that there were other people present and asked, "Where is Jin Bai?"
Before Yan Suizhi could answer, Liu Sheng returned from the battlefield and shouted, "Madam Xie, I just heard you were here again. You're great! You're worthy of being the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo!"
Liu Sheng was tall and burly, his armor stained with blood, and he looked murderous.
"General Liu, you're too kind. I just wanted to do my part. How's the war going? Is it difficult?"
Liu Sheng shook his head, his face full of anger.
"These wild dogs in Mobei are really hard to deal with. I don't know what the imperial court is thinking. The army has been almost worn out over the years, and they actually want to provoke them? But then again, this battle was bound to be fought sooner or later. If only it were a little later, I could have trained the soldiers properly. The time left to me is too tight!"
Xie Wanyun couldn't help but sigh.
"Report!" A messenger came running over.
"General, the enemy has been spotted ahead. A group of Mobei cavalry have circled around to the ridge to the left of Blue Moon Pass!"
"These bastards, do you think you can climb up to the top of the mountain and beat me down from above? You're dreaming! Who's going to fight?"
A general stepped forward and said, "No one is willing to go!"
The messenger shouted, "General, General Xiao Xie has already taken his men there."
"Huh, this kid is so quick, is he afraid that others will steal his credit?" Liu Sheng cursed, but his eyes were full of smiles, and he was obviously very satisfied with this "Little General Xie".
Xie Wanyun's heart suddenly tightened.
"General Xiao Xie?" How come I have never heard of this person?
She looked at Yan Suizhi, who smiled and nodded at her.
Xie Wanyun was surprised, delighted, proud, worried...all kinds of emotions swept over her, and she didn't know what to do for a moment.
"Madam Xie, you don't know yet, right? This young General Xie is Prince Rui, the hostage sent to Mobei by the imperial court. Don't be fooled by his young age and frail appearance, but he is a highly skilled warrior, brave and resourceful. He will surely become a great man in the future."
Liu Sheng laughed out loud.
The other people in the tent also nodded repeatedly and praised General Xie highly.
"But why does he call himself General Xiao Xie?" Xie Wanyun couldn't help but ask.
"Well, it's about the old Duke of Zhenguo. Prince Rui said that he admired the Duke of Zhenguo the most. It's a pity that he couldn't listen to his teachings in person or serve under him. To make up for this regret, he called himself Xiao Xie."
"So that's how it is." Xie Wanyun felt sad.
If my father were alive, how comforted he would be to see with his own eyes that his grandson is proud of him.
Yan Suizhi said, "Mrs. Xie has come a long way. Please go and rest first. When General Xie returns, I will have him come to see you."
"Little General Xie." Xie Wanyun murmured. Her Jin Bai had really grown up.
She couldn't help but feel a surge of pride.
