After resolving these matters, Lu Baichuan led his men to the military camp to fetch the Third Prince. It was at this moment that the people in the camp realized that the Third Prince had actually been in their camp all along, but they had never known it.
After training with He Jiuniang for so long, everyone had become much more confident in themselves, but now it seems that they were the ones who were the clowns!
Compared to that couple, these people are just small fry.
They're just small fry. Don't even mention how powerful those two are; they couldn't even beat a kid who's not even five years old.
This was something we only learned recently after the competition. That night, everyone saw Gou'er teaching the young prince swordsmanship. When the soldiers saw this, they gathered around to watch. Seeing that Gou'er's skills were truly exceptional, they were all eager to try their hand at sparring with him.
They knew about the contest between Gou'er and the spy from Dongting, but they were still in the mountains at the time and hadn't come down yet. They couldn't see it with their own eyes. After hearing what the people who saw it said, they only thought that the spy must have injured his body in the mountains, which was why he lost. They didn't think Gou'er was really that good.
Even when they first started competing with the dog, they were thinking that they had to be careful. If they really hurt the young master, their sister-in-law would crack their heads open.
However, this thought only lasted for a moment, because the dog was already rushing towards him at great speed.
Having learned from his previous experience, Gou'er diligently sought out He Jiuniang to teach him a few more moves. Even though he wasn't very strong, he was able to finish a battle twice as fast as before.
At first, I followed the old routine, using my speed and small size to wear down my opponent. But this time, instead of just wearing them down, I found their weaknesses during the process and then looked for opportunities to attack.
He Jiuniang meant that he had to be killed in one blow, otherwise, given his age, he wouldn't be able to withstand a second attack.
Dog remembered He Jiu Niang's words, found the opponent's weakness, and stabbed at it with his little stick.
The soldier's face contorted instantly, and he stumbled back a few steps, losing his balance and falling to the ground. It was unimaginable that this was the explosive power of a child.
"good!"
The soldiers watching were stunned for a moment, then erupted in deafening cheers. Some were talking about national treasures, others were whistling, and their eyes were full of admiration and worship for the dog.
To have such talent at such a young age, what will he be like when he grows up!
However, it can't be said that he has a high starting point because he has such parents. After all, the master leads you through the door, but the cultivation depends on yourself. This child is very hardworking. Every morning he trains with them, and at noon he reads and practices calligraphy. In the evening, when they stop training and prepare to rest or patrol, this child also leads the young prince to practice swordsmanship.
Their perseverance is what makes them remarkable.
The defeated soldier struggled to his feet, bowed respectfully to him, and said, "Young master, you are truly formidable. I am completely defeated!"
The dog chuckled, feeling quite pleased with himself. He was only able to defeat the man so quickly because he used his mother's method; otherwise, he would be the one lying on the ground right now.
"You're very skilled too. If I were to fight you seriously, I definitely wouldn't be your match. I was just using the tricks my mother taught me. If you all train hard with your mother, you'll definitely become very strong!"
While being modest, he also praised He Jiuniang. The soldiers nodded repeatedly. Everyone had witnessed his sister-in-law's abilities, so there was nothing to question.
It was because of this incident that the people in the military camp were repeatedly shocked when Lu Baichuan led his men to pick up the Third Prince of Dongting.
Who would have thought that a perfectly healthy person had been living in their military camp for so long without them noticing?
What's most incredible is that in such a short time, this couple quietly accomplished something big, uncovering so many spies from the Eastern Court.
This time, they were truly grateful time and time again for having the opportunity to work under their command. With such amazing people by their side, how could they not have the chance to get promoted and receive a raise?
That evening, the military camp was exceptionally lively. Several sheep were slaughtered to reward the soldiers who had been training hard during this period, especially the two hundred selected men, who would receive a special reward. Their training would be three to five times harder than that of ordinary people, but as long as they could get through the most difficult beginning, better days would follow.
"General, sister-in-law, how did you manage to do that? They've been with us for so long and never shown any weakness. And every time they mentioned the Dongting people, they were so eager to kill them. How could you have discovered they were spies?"
Someone who was on good terms with them asked, and this question resonated with everyone: "Yes, how did they find out?"
While eating the kebabs that Lu Baichuan handed her, He Jiuniang said, "The biggest flaw is that they acted so flawlessly. People who truly hate the Dongting people to the bone will not stay in such an army for long."
These words were like a wake-up call. Yes, before Lu Baichuan took over this army, they were despised by other generals. If they really had that hatred, they would definitely have tried to go to other military camps, climb up the ranks, and find opportunities to capture more Dongting people, instead of shouting at the top of their lungs in this group of useless people.
"Sister-in-law is wise!"
The soldiers' admiration for He Jiuniang increased even more. Lu Baichuan listened silently, but the smile on his face told everyone how proud he was.
"Sister-in-law is so capable, no wonder our general kept praising her to us. We didn't believe it at first, but now it proves we were blind!"
Some people took the opportunity to flatter him, and others echoed them. He Jiuniang smiled meaningfully at Lu Baichuan, who said, "I'm just telling the truth, there's no intention to praise or not."
"Oh, oh, oh, our general is too proud to admit it! Hahaha, sister-in-law, let me tell you, the general not only keeps himself pure and upright, but also requires us to keep ourselves pure and upright. This is how much he values and cares for his wives. I didn't understand what it meant before, but now that I see how good the general and his wife's relationship is, I understand everything!"
"I understand, but when are we going to get wives?"
"Hey kid, you've hit the nail on the head! When will I ever get a wife? Waaaaah..."
The atmosphere, which had been quite pleasant, suddenly turned somber. The couple looked at each other and saw smiles and overflowing love in each other's eyes.
A moment later, He Jiuniang got up with a full plate of mutton skewers, intending to take them to the two children who were still doing their homework. Just as she stood up, she heard a commotion outside, and soon a soldier ran over to report: "Something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened at the prison!"
