When faced with the heartbroken Dugu Yan, Xue'er, despite being the wife and Dugu Yan being the concubine, still politely addressed her as Aunt.
"Auntie... don't be sad. Don't worry, I'll explain to the Khan..."
Murong Xue said, "This matter is not your fault. You meant well and wanted to give our Xianbei people some respect."
"Waaah!"
Dugu Yan wept bitterly, saying, "I lost more than 30,000 soldiers and also harmed Alie. If his father, the Khan, finds out about this... it will affect Alie's future. Perhaps, the plan to make Alie the heir to the Khanate will also fall through..."
"No way!"
Murong Xue comforted him, "When Jiang Ming comes back, I will tell him that he still carries a lot of weight in Father Khan's eyes. With his support, A Lie will not lose his position as the successor."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true!"
Murong Xue comforted him, "Xiuxiu and Alie are deeply in love. I spoke with Jiang Ming before, and he agreed to let Alie marry Nanxiu. Think about it, Aunt... if Xiuxiu and Alie get married, then in order to keep Jiang Ming in check, Father will definitely agree to let Alie be the heir..."

"Good Xue'er...you really don't hold a grudge against your aunt for what she said to you before?"
"Ouch..."
Murong Xue hugged Dugu Yan tightly: "Auntie, what are you saying? We are both his wives, we should work together and share his burdens..."
......
News of the Tuoba tribe's attack on Xingguan and the resulting heavy losses reached Jiang Ming's ears a few days later.
Jiang Ming was currently setting up defenses at Changping, preparing for a decisive battle with Zhi Yao's army. Upon hearing this, he was indeed furious!
But he quickly calmed down and came up with a brilliant plan!
