Chapter 127: Not an Ordinary Woman
She was being seen clearly by so many people yet she still wanted to bite back. It seemed that Bai Li was right. She really left her brain at home!
"Brother! I'm your biological sister, and you actually let others bully me?"
The ground was muddy after the ice had just melted. Shangguan Ying fell like a mud monkey. Since she was lost anyway, she simply turned over and sat up crying, thinking that she had nothing to lose!
"Hahaha! The arrogant Captain Shangguan is actually crying like a baby. It's hilarious!"
"Your crying is so ugly. If I had run away earlier, why would you dare to sit here and cry?"
"Ah!!! Go away!"
“Puff!”
Shangguan Ying's muddy face was left with two muddy yellow tear marks due to her tears. It was so funny that Bai Li couldn't help laughing out loud.
"You dare to laugh at me, Brother Nangong, come and save me!"
Namgoong Min: ...
You get shot even when you're lying down!
"Alright, Shangguan Ying, this won't happen again. If you do it again, I won't show mercy!"
"Brother Nangong, why do you say that to me?"
Nangong Min felt that he couldn't explain it clearly to her, so he asked Shangguan Yu to handle the aftermath and waved Bai Li to enter the tent.
"Brother Nangong, you still let her in? She has bad intentions!..."
"Shut up! Do you want to be accused of slander?"
Shangguan Yu's face is like a palette, and today he was completely disgraced by his own sister.
"Don't you guys need to train? Be careful you won't make it past this month's competition!"
Everyone dispersed with laughter. Shangguan Yu's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He gritted his teeth and looked at the person who was still sitting on the ground.
"Why don't you get up and ask someone to please you?!
You just came back and caused trouble again. You ruined the opportunity I asked the Major General for on your behalf. I won't be responsible for you anymore!"
"Brother! If you don't care about me, I won't speak well of you in front of mother anymore! Think about your marriage!"
Shangguan Ying stopped crying, patted her muddy hands and stood up.
Seeing that the mud was getting thicker, he simply stopped and wiped his body with it. A few streaks of mud dripped down, but he didn't care at all.
Shangguan Yu got a headache whenever he thought of Bai Yue.
His fiancée has to observe a three-year mourning period before getting married, but Bai Yue insists that he must bring her home this year.
How could someone take a concubine before getting married? Wouldn’t that be violating the laws of the Great Zhou?
But Bai Yue refused to give in and insisted that he give an explanation, otherwise she would make trouble in the military camp and in front of the emperor.
He had no other choice but to go home and inform his parents, and take her back home to be raised as a maid, and then take her as a concubine after he got married.
Who knew that when he got home and told his parents, he was immediately scolded by them.
Later, his sister persuaded his mother, and his mother persuaded his father, and the matter was finally resolved.
But his parents said that he felt guilty towards his fiancée and that he could only take a concubine after three years of marriage.
Three years plus three years, Bai Yue has to wait for six years!
If she knew, she might make a scene, so Shangguan Yu thought of asking his younger sister to plead for him in front of his mother, so as to shorten the time and explain to Bai Yue.
Thinking of this, he softened his tone, "Alright, it's already like this, let's not blame each other.
Remember, from now on, we brothers and sisters must work together to do our own jobs well, and we can't make any more mistakes!"
"Humph! If you want me to help you, you have to speak well of me in front of Brother Nangong and not let him drive me away, otherwise you will have no chance of getting away with it!"
"I know. Just be quiet, or I can't help you!"
Shangguan Ying reached a consensus with her brother. She looked at the door of Nangong Min's tent with fire in her eyes, trying her best to control her urge to lift the curtain.
In the tent, Nangong Min took out a secret letter and handed it to Bai Li.
Bai Li took the paper tube and opened it. It was a piece of paper two fingers wide. It was obvious that it was sent by a carrier pigeon.
Two sentences were written on it in fine calligraphy: "The Simon army has assembled and will be preparing to march towards Da Zhou next month. Urgent!"
"Are you preparing for war?"
"Time is too tight, the new recruits haven't been trained yet, and the Emperor is so worried that he can't even eat!"
"The individual combat capability of these 5,000 new recruits has reached the point where they can fight one against two against five. Their skills with bows, arrows, swords, and spears are on par with veterans. If they train for another month, they can still improve.
The question now is when will the next batch of recruits arrive? They can't just go to the battlefield right after they arrive, right?
"A few days ago, a messenger arrived saying that the next batch of 5,000 new recruits will be arriving soon."
"Speaking of which, the new recruits and veterans combined are still not even half as strong as the enemy. I have no confidence in fighting this battle."
"Don't say that. Who was it that solemnly promised before the Emperor that one could defeat ten? If that's the case, our 20,000-man army is more than enough to resist Simon's 200,000-man army. Now you say you have no confidence?"
"Brother, I mean the soldiers I trained can fight ten at a time, but I don't know how capable the soldiers in other camps are."
"I don't care. It's not me who made the promise in front of the emperor."
"Dude, you're not being nice enough?"
Bai Li put one hand on Nangong Min's shoulder, pretending to smile but gritting his teeth.
Namgoong Minjun's face turned red to his ears. He was frightened by her behavior at the beginning, and although he has become immune to it now, his face is getting redder and redder.
"It's no use calling me dad. You picked up the burden yourself, so you have to figure it out yourself."
"Hey! You still want to be my dad? I'll tell my dad you're trying to steal his girl!"
"Hey, hey! I just said it, is it really that serious?"
"You want to take advantage of me, of course!"
"Then I won't say it anymore."
"no!"
"So, what do you think we should do?"
Seeing that he had taken the bait, Bai Li gave him a sly smile.
She hooked his head and moved closer, saying, "Call me Auntie."
“Hmm!”
Nangong Min wanted to shake his head, but found that his neck was clamped so tightly that it hurt his ears when he moved.
He felt a soft and tender touch from the side, and a unique fragrance of a young girl penetrated his nostrils. His whole body froze, and he dared not move. He even had difficulty breathing.
Seeing that he was almost out of breath, Bai Li let him go with a rogue smile.
You little brat, you want to fight with her?
Still young!
"Are you a woman or not? There is no woman like you!"
Nangong Min moved her stiff neck, her face full of resentment, like a bullied young wife.
"What? You still want to test whether I'm a woman?!"
"No, no, no! No thanks!"
Nangong Min seemed to have his feet burned, and he kept backing away from her as far as possible, which made Bai Li furious.
"come over!"
Waving your hand, like calling Erha.
Nangong Min looked at her face. If he didn't go over, she might get angry and forget to talk about the important matter. How would he explain to the emperor?
He shook his head helplessly, sighed softly and walked over slowly.
This woman is truly an extraordinary woman.
He wants to complain to the emperor... Oh no, report that he won't serve him anymore, whoever wants to serve him can do it!
