"Seize my position as queen?"
Zhao Linger said disdainfully: "You little slut, if you had this idea earlier, maybe it would be possible, but it's too late now."
"My sister's position as queen has long been as solid as a rock. You can't just snatch it away if you want to."
Just when the two of them were bickering as usual, Yu Fei said with a smile: "That's enough for you two. The porridge is ready. Let's each have a big bowl to warm ourselves up."
Ye Heling, who was standing by, had already prepared four bowls of steaming porridge.
The weather has indeed turned cold. Last night, even though Zhou Zhiruo and Zhao Linger slept in each other's arms, they were still freezing.
At this moment, seeing the steaming millet porridge, they suddenly forgot about their quarrel.
At this moment, Zhang Wuji asked Ye Heling, "Girl, you escaped from Dadu."
"According to your estimate, if we all continue to move at the same speed as yesterday, how long will it take us to reach Dadu?"
Ye Heling thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, according to my calculations, we should be able to reach the capital before dusk the day after tomorrow.
What Ye Heling said was quite sophisticated.
"In reply to Your Majesty, based on my calculations."
These few simple words show that Ye Heling has already made her position clear.
It had only been one day since she met Zhang Wuji, but within that one day, Ye Heling had already sold out her old master.
Zhao Linger smiled at Ye Heling and said, "Girl, you call me Your Majesty and your servant so naturally."
"It's as if you are my master's servant."
Of course Ye Heling could hear the sarcasm in Zhao Linger's words.
But these ironies have long been insignificant to Ye Heling, who only wants his life and not his face.
Ye Heling quickly knelt down on the ground and said, "Empress, from today on, I, Ye Heling, will be your slave."
"I have observed that you, Sister Fairy, and Sister Yu are all his Majesty's people."
"You went out to fight, but you didn't even bring a maid to serve tea and water with you. This is really beneath your dignity."
"My appearance is a good thing for you. If you accept me, you will have someone to serve tea, wash clothes and cook."
Zhao Linger laughed and said, "You little girl, you have such a powerful mouth."
"Every word you said just now touched my heart."
"It is really fate that I can meet you in this vast grassland."
Unlike Zhao Linger's playful laughter, Zhou Zhiruo looked at Ye Heling with contempt.
Then she said to Ye Heling, "Stand up quickly. I hate women with weak knees the most."
Ye Heling quickly said: "Fairy sister, I am different from you. I was born to be a servant."
"Kneeling in front of you is my duty."
Zhou Zhiruo snorted coldly and said, "I told you to get up, so you got up. If you kneel down again, you will dirty my clothes."
After hearing this, Ye Heling could only stand up with an embarrassed look on her face.
Zhou Zhiruo said: "Go and get yourself a bowl of porridge to warm yourself up, we are about to set off."
Ye Heling was terrified of Zhou Zhiruo yesterday, but at this moment, she actually felt a little grateful to Zhou Zhiruo.
"Zhou Zhiruo rewarded her with a fox fur coat and a bowl of hot millet porridge."
"For people like Ye Heling, this is enough."
…
Ye Heling drank a bowl of millet porridge in big gulps. Then Zhang Wuji asked her, "Girl, you are from Dadu. Now tell me about the defense situation around Dadu."
Ye Heling quickly said: "In reply to Your Majesty, when I came out, Dadu was surrounded on three sides."
"There is only a glimmer of hope in the north."
"I, your servant, escaped from the north."
"As for the deployment of troops, Zhao Min had asked General Duan to lead 150,000 troops to guard Dahukou a long time ago."
"Outside the capital, Chang Yuchun had been attacking the city for many days."
"Excluding the dead and wounded, there may be about 200,000 soldiers in the city."
"And these 200,000 soldiers are still in a standoff with Chang Yuchun. According to the current situation, Zhao Min definitely does not have extra troops to guard against you."
After Ye Heling finished speaking, Zhang Wuji said with a smile: "Girl, you said these words in one breath, as if you had memorized them in advance."
Ye Heling hurriedly said in horror: "Your Majesty, every word I said is true."
"Ever since Zhao Min ascended the throne, I have been serving her every day. Naturally, I know a little about how she deploys troops."
"Besides, even if Zhao Min wanted to use a trick to harm you, she would never let me do this most critical link."
"I'm just a maid who is more likely to cause trouble than to help. Zhao Min is the smartest woman I have ever met. She is so smart that she would never pin any hopes on a stupid maid like me."
Zhang Wuji stared at Ye Heling's eyes for a long time.
After seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, he didn't say anything more.
Zhou Zhiruo seemed to see the doubts in Zhang Wuji's heart, and she asked him, "Are you suspecting this girl or Zhao Min?"
Zhang Wuji said: "There is nothing to be suspicious about this little girl. I just suddenly feel that things are going too smoothly."
"However, now is not the time to hesitate. The world is right in front of us. Even if there are some risks, it is worth a try."
Zhao Linger smiled and said, "This is what my man should say."
"In fact, I also suspect that Zhao Min may have some conspiracy. Even if the Yuan court is in decline, it is impossible that she would not be able to get any news."
"Tens of thousands of our troops disappeared out of thin air in Jinyang."
"Zhao Min is such a smart person, I don't believe she can't guess anything."
"For the next two days, we sisters will accompany you and lead the way. Even if we encounter any danger, Zhao Min will not be able to do anything to us with our cultivation level."
Zhou Zhiruo also said to Zhang Wuji: "It's settled."
"Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog. Since the day I, Zhou Zhiruo, followed you, I was destined to live and die with you."
"We will lead the way in front. Even if Zhao Min and Han Yulou come, they can't stop us."
At this moment, Zhang Wuji's mood was beyond words, and everything could only be expressed in a look of infinite admiration.
The army continued to move forward, with Zhang Wuji and others leading the way.
The only one who was a bit cumbersome was Ye Heling.
Although Zhou Zhiruo did not intend to kill her, she would not let her stay behind.
If they really encountered Zhao Min's ambush, Ye Heling would be the first to die.
