Chapter 131: Xu Nian sets out in disguise, Luo Jinan arrives in Dayang City

Xu Nian did not look at the wooden box, but asked: "Is everything else ready?"

"Don't worry, Miss. The herbs and potted plants are ready."

"Okay, go out and tell them to set off as planned."

"yes"

After Yanci left, Xu Nian opened the wooden box, which was full of banknotes. This time, because she needed money urgently, Xu Nian took out the glass cup from her space and asked Yanci to find someone to sell it. If it were before, she would definitely have many concerns, but now that she knew Yanci would be able to be kind, she didn't know who the buyer would be.

Xu Nian's hand gently brushed over the banknotes. These silver coins were not for her to buy food. The reason why she insisted on going there in person this time was because she needed to use the magical object of space to "rob the rich and help the poor."

The war in Yangcheng did not allow Xu Nian to slowly collect food, so she had to find some "unlucky guys".

There was a knock on the door and Xu Nian threw the purse into the space.

"Advance"

Mo Jian and Mo Yu walked in side by side. Mo Jian was still dressed like a nanny, holding a set of tools in her hands.

"Miss, let me put on makeup for you." Xu Nian was still a little uncomfortable listening to Mo Jian's voice that sounded like an old woman, but in her heart she admired these capable people around Luo Jinan very much.

"Let's get started."

Xu Nian closed her eyes and felt her face getting cold. She thought it was very magical. If she had not seen Mo Jian's original appearance, she really would not have believed that there was such a thing as disguise in this world.

Less than an incense stick of time passed before Mo Jian withdrew his hand and said softly, "Miss, are you satisfied with this?"

Xu Nian saw a completely unfamiliar face through the bronze mirror. It was no longer as bright and attractive as before, but rather looked very ordinary. She couldn't even remember what the special features of this face were.

"Mammy's cooking skills are truly amazing."

"Puchi" Mo Yu lowered his head and tried to hold back his laughter in failure. Mo Jian was also helpless. Although previous missions also required disguise, this was the first time he disguised himself as a nanny. All this was because the prince had ordered him to protect Xu Nian closely.

"Miss, thank you for your kindness, but..." Mo Jian didn't know how to persuade her. He knew that Xu Nian was already prepared to go south, but considering how nervous the prince was about Miss Xu, he would definitely not agree.

Xu Nian knew what Mo Jian had not said, but she had made up her mind.

"Don't worry, I will explain it to Luo Jinan later. Now that everything is ready, let's go."

Mo Jian sighed. This was the only way to go. Because the prince was leaving with the soldiers left by the late emperor, they could only wait for his instructions. They did not dare to contact him at will.

A convoy of carriages left the villa quietly. Even if people nearby saw it, they were not curious, because everyone nearby knew that the villa planted various seasonal vegetables and flowers, and rich families often came to buy flowers with carriages, so Xu Nian and his group did not attract attention.

On this trip, Xu Nian brought Yan Ci, Yan Fu and Yan Rong. Yan Xiu was left at the manor by Xu Nian. Together with Mo Jian and Mo Yu, Xu Nian did not have many people he could use.

When they arrived in Shengdu, Yanci was kept behind by Xu Nian and did not continue south with him. Although others were very curious about Xu Nian's arrangements, they were tactful and did not ask.

When Xu Nian quietly headed south, Luo Jinan had already rushed to Yangcheng. Because the main force was behind him, only two thousand marching troops arrived ahead of him.

He did not rush to the border to look for Zheng Yan immediately, but went into a deep mountain, where waiting was Mo Bai who had come here before to gather information.

"Your Highness"

Luo Jinan nodded slightly, sat casually on a stone and asked, "What is the situation now?"

Mo Bai was now in a state of panic, with his lips chapped and dry, and it was obvious that he had suffered a lot during this period. But he could not wait to drink a sip of water and said anxiously: "Your Highness, this time the Yanyang army is coming in a strong force, and I found that they seemed to have reached some kind of deal with Mobei and Yunlan. But now there is no trace of the Mobei army, but General Gar of Yunlan appeared in the Yanyang camp."

Luo Jinan looked at the mountains in the distance and couldn't help but ponder. The first snow might have already fallen in the northern border, not to mention Mobei. The food shortage in Mobei has not been a one-day or two-day thing. This time, he could cooperate with Yan Yang, and the benefits that Yan Yang promised might be considerable.

Luo Jinan looked at Mo Bai who was standing in front of him and hesitated, and couldn't help frowning, "Is there anything else difficult?"

Mo Bai was angry and gritted his teeth. "Lord Zheng has asked the court for help, but has not received a response so far. According to the news from Shengdu, Duke Wei advocated a marriage alliance on the grounds that the treasury was empty. The court is still arguing about this."

Luo Jinan's eyes turned cold. It was the Wen family again. However, it was more important to resolve the external threat first.

"Mo Bai, tonight you lead 500 men to sneak into the enemy camp in four groups and burn their food and straw. Remember to fight quickly and don't fight too long."

"yes"

"Zhao Qing, take 500 people and change your clothes to sneak into the city to find the hidden rats. I don't want any information to leak to the Yanyang military camp."

"yes"

"Liu Fei..."

After Luo Jinan arranged everything, he and everyone else closed their eyes and waited for the night to fall. Only Mo Bai observed Luo Jinan's expression from time to time.

"I can't die yet."

"Uh" Mo Bai was caught peeking and laughed awkwardly twice. Seeing that the prince was in good health, he closed his eyes and rested with peace of mind.

As the night deepened, everything was silent, but in the military tents at the border, there was a bustling bustle.

"Sir, we can't just sit there and wait for death. If we keep wasting time like this, there won't be many people left in the border defense force."

There were dark spots on Zheng Yan's armor, which were left by enemy arrows that grazed his arms and stained them with blood.

His eyes were bloodshot but he did not show his weakness. "No matter what, Yangcheng cannot be lost. Behind us are our wives, children, and tens of thousands of Yangcheng citizens. We must hold on."

The military tent fell silent for a moment. For the past half month, the Yanyang Army had been like a hungry wolf lurking in wait, launching sneak attacks from time to time, causing heavy losses to the border defense troops.

Zheng Yan knew very well that the Yan Yang Army was now trying to wear them down, or perhaps they had a deeper purpose. Once the Yan Yang Army launched a fierce attack, their border defense forces would not be able to resist.

"Bang!" The strong man slammed his fist on the table and said angrily, "What a fucking bastard! It's better to fuck him, sir. Otherwise, I will take a few people to overturn the camp of those Yan Dogs tonight."

Zheng Yan shook his head. "We sent out several waves of people but none of them came back. This means they have already taken precautions. I'm afraid it won't work."

Just when the men in the military tent were still confused, drums were heard outside. The strong man shouted "Not good" and ran out.

Zheng Yan also rushed out with his sword in hand. At this time, there was already flames outside, rockets fired by the enemy were everywhere, and the shouts of killing were deafening.
