Chapter 517 The Jade Seal is their weakness!
The wind is cold.
At this moment, Zhu Feng was standing on the city wall, gazing into the distance with a pair of hawk-like eyes.
Under the gray sky, some green smoke can be seen rising faintly, but it is soon blown away by the wind.
Ye Zheng also saw it and said, "Your Majesty, what is that?"
Zhu Feng said, "They are making a fire and cooking."
"To make a fire and cook at this time?"
“…”
Zhu Feng was silent for a moment, then said, "Ye Zheng, what time is it now?"
He asked, "Ye Zheng, what time is it now?"
Ye Zheng quickly replied, "One quarter after noon."
"One quarter of the afternoon..."
Zhu Feng muttered, then looked at the barely perceptible smoke in the distance and said, "Pass the word down, have everyone eat early. Tonight—no, tonight, the people of Dian will definitely come to attack the city."
Ye Zheng opened his eyes wide in astonishment: "Your Majesty, how did you know?"
Zhu Feng said, "They eat at this time to replenish their energy, because siege warfare takes a long time and consumes the most energy."
“…”
"After eating at this time, it takes at least an hour to digest and rest."
“…”
"Therefore, I can conclude that they will attack at dusk."
Ye Zheng immediately said, "I will pass the order down right away!"
After saying that, he turned around and hurried down to deliver messages to Xu Shifeng and several other generals guarding the city.
Zhu Feng was still standing in the cold wind, his eyes sharp as a knife, staring solemnly into the distance.
There will be a fierce battle tonight.

"Without desire, one is strong...Without desire, one is strong..."
Nan Yan held the note in her hand and had read these words thousands of times.
Those who have no desires are strong.
What does it mean?
Why would such a message come from the Kingdom of Dian, and it was written in reverse?
What is even more confusing is that it actually fell in my own yard.
Could it be that someone wants to pass it on to me?
However, she didn't know anyone in the Kingdom of Dian. How could anyone give her such a strange and seemingly useless message?
"No desire, then strength... What does that even mean?
She felt like her brain was about to be racked with thoughts. She threw the note on the table, walked to the bed, and lay down on her back with a plop.
But at this moment, an idea suddenly flashed in her mind.
Those who have no desires are strong.
If you understand this sentence literally, it means that without desires, there will be no weaknesses and you will become indestructible.
However, the four words on this note were written backwards.
Do I have to understand it in reverse?
She suddenly sat up from the bed, walked quickly to the table, picked up the note and read it -
If you have no desires, you will be strong. To put it the other way around, if you have desires, you will have weaknesses and may be destroyed.
Desire is weakness!
If this is what the person who sent the carrier pigeon wanted to tell me, then who was this sentence referring to?
A native of Dian?
Are you talking about the army of the Neng Kingdom?
This time they marched south with an army of 200,000, which was far superior to the strength of the army defending Peking. It could be said that they were impossible to resist.
However, if we can find their weaknesses, can we defeat them?
Their weaknesses...
That is, their desires!
desire……
want……
Jade seal?
Nan Yan's mind suddenly rang with the words Ye Zheng had said to her before -
The people of Neng attacked Yan State in order to find their lost jade seal!
The imperial seal is their desire.
That is their weakness!
