"Your Highness, my lord is deeply saddened to learn that Jing Kingdom's grain supplies have been burned. He wishes to offer assistance, but unfortunately, Yu Kingdom suffered from floods in recent years and has been engaged in continuous warfare, making Yu Kingdom's situation extremely difficult."
"His Highness said that he felt guilty for not being able to help Jing Kingdom, and has already broken camp and returned to Yu, so there is no need for His Highness to see him off."
After the Jade Kingdom general finished speaking, Jing Yan gave Rong Ying a look that said, "You guessed it."
Now that Yu Guo has left ahead of schedule, only An Guo remains.
Jing Yan had no chance of asking An Guo for help, but An Chenghuan seemed determined not to miss this opportunity to gloat.
Instead of breaking camp and returning home like Yu Chuyi, he had someone invite Jing Yan to his side for a talk.

"I heard that His Highness King Li of your country burned the grain supplies of Jing Kingdom, causing a shortage of grain supplies for His Highness of Jing Kingdom. In the current weather, the soldiers of Jing Kingdom cannot do without grain supplies. His Highness of Jing Kingdom may need my help."
Jing Yan looked at An Chenghuan through the layer of heat opposite him. His face was unrecognizable, but Jing Yan understood the meaning behind his words perfectly.
"Your Highness's words make me feel ashamed. I wonder what Your Highness's request is given given your righteousness?"
An Chenghuan put down the teapot, blew lightly on the freshly brewed tea, and spoke leisurely.
"I dare not make such a request. Years ago, I did receive some advice from His Highness of Jing, who asked me to choose between the world and my wife. I don't know if my choice was right or wrong."
"Now I would like to hear His Highness Jing's answer."
An Chenghuan didn't touch a drop of tea before immediately putting down his cup, his gaze fixed on Jing Yan, his voice indifferent.
"How about exchanging the rations of more than 200,000 Jing soldiers for one person, Jing Yan, return Yue Jiang to Gu?"
"I'll give you provisions to return to you."
