Hearing that Su Qing had arrived, Xiao Zeyu hurriedly welcomed her.
She was still pregnant; how could she travel such a long distance?
Xiao Zeyu left the tent and saw Su Qing leaving the carriage.
“Qing’er, don’t move.”
Xiao Zeyu called out and ran over. He carried Su Qing off the carriage in front of all the soldiers and placed one hand on her shoulder. He held her hand and carefully looked her up and down.
“Qing’er, are you feeling unwell?”
Seeing how Xiao Zeyu valued her so much, Su Qing smiled and replied,
“No, I came by carriage.”
“Brother.”
Xiao Lanxin lifted the curtain of the sedan and called her big brother. Because of what Yelu Chun had said, she had untied the knot in her heart and returned to her previous happy and mischievous self.
“Let me help you.”
Yelu Chun followed suit and doted on her like Xiao Zeyu. He raised his hands and helped Xiao Lanxin out of the carriage. Xiao Zeyu felt gratified when he saw how protective he was.
He could leave his sister in his care!
“Third Prince, thank you for your help.”
Xiao Zeyu was very touched to see Yelu Chun’s 30,000 soldiers. He was initially worried about the massive disparity in numbers with the Wan Clan Army, but now he didn’t have to worry.
Yelu Chun’s 30,000 soldiers, the 5,000 elite soldiers brought by Su Qing, and the 23,000 elite soldiers now added up to 58,000. Although they were still a few tens of thousands fewer than the Wan Family Army, with the addition of the mortars, they were not only evenly matched, but they were already wholly crushing the Wan Family Army.
Previously, he had thought that with the arrival of Yelu Chun and Su Qing, they could secure victory in this risky siege!
“Master.”
Zhong Yong ran up to Su Qing with a wide grin and called her sweetly. He did not look like a tough guy at all. He was as happy as a child who had seen his parents.
“Not bad.”
Su Qing praised Zhong Yong with a smile. Zhong Yong was even happier after being praised. He smiled like a flower that had bloomed.
“Big Brother Zhong.”
Jiang Yuyan’s voice came from behind him. The smile on Zhong Yong’s face froze as he turned around and looked at Jiang Yuyan, who was smiling sweetly at him.
“Yuyan, why are you here?”
They had been separated for more than a month. He couldn’t remember when he was busy with the war, but whenever he was free, he would miss her very much. When he closed his eyes, he would see Yuyan bringing him food and clothes and calling him ‘Big Brother Zhong’ sweetly.
“I’m here to help you fight.”
Jiang Yuyan was too embarrassed to say that she missed Zhong Yong in front of many people. She told her family that she missed Su Qing and took off to see her.
When they arrived at Luo City, they saw the army gathering. When Jiang Yuyan heard they were going to the front line, she begged Su Qing to take her along. She could help Xiao Ying take care of the injured. She had experience in this area.
Su Qing knew that Jiang Yuyan wanted to see Zhong Yong, but she could help the army. Strictly speaking, Jiang Yuyan was already a qualified nurse, so she brought her along.
“It’s too dangerous. I’ll send someone to send you back tomorrow.”
Zhong Yong was straightforward and said what he was thinking. It was simple and crude, but it made people feel warm in their hearts.
“I’m not afraid.”
Jiang Yuyan shook her head vigorously. Zhong Yong had gone out to fight, and she had never felt at ease. At night, she dreamed that Zhong Yong was covered in blood. Instead of suffering at home, she might as well come to the army to help. At least she could protect Zhong Yong.
“Let’s enter the tent and sit down.”
Xiao Zeyu maintained his posture of protecting Su Qing with both hands. Seeing that everyone was talking outside, he feared that Su Qing would get tired and called them into the tent.
The soldier went out to boil water and make tea for everyone. The tent was filled with laughter. Xiao Zeyu helped Su Qing sit down on a chair before he sat down. There were two rows of long tables below, which the generals used during meetings.
“Everyone, sit down. You must be hungry, right? Let’s eat some pastries first. We’ll eat roasted lamb later.”
The smile on Xiao Zeyu’s face never stopped when Su Qing arrived. He was happy from the inside out.
Even if they went out to fight, they couldn’t treat everyone to a roast lamb dish like they did at home.
“I brought a cart full of vegetables. Eating meat is too much. I’ll make a vegetarian feast for everyone later.”
Su Qing told Xiao Zeyu that she couldn’t eat mutton now. She felt like vomiting after eating it, and the smell of it made her nauseous. She feared the vegetables would lose moisture and rot after a long journey. Su Qing had stored all the vegetables in the system, so when she said that she had brought vegetables, Yelu Chun looked at her. Where were the vegetables? Why didn’t he know?
Xiao Ying knew about it. When she sat in the car with her sister-in-law, she would bring a cucumber for herself, a tomato, and even a melon for her. She had never eaten them before. She only knew their names after hearing her sister-in-law mention them.
Jiang Yuyan was lucky enough to eat Su Qing’s vegetables. They were very delicious. The tomato was juicy and sweet with a bite. It was also her first time eating cantaloupes. They were so delicious that she didn’t even throw away the melon seeds.
The first time she saw Su Qing take something out of thin air, Jiang Yuyan was shocked. She had been looking at it for a long time and was numb. Even if Su Qing removed a house from the air now, she wouldn’t find it strange.
Anyway, Su Qing was like a god in her heart!
“You should rest!”
Xiao Zeyu couldn’t bear to see Su Qing cook for everyone after such a long journey, so he stopped her from moving.
“I’ve already ordered the sheep to be slaughtered. They should be roasted by now.”
Su Qing didn’t insist anymore. She took out a large pile of vegetables and let the soldier wash them. After a while, she sent a plate to each table.
Yelu Chun was extremely envious. There was plenty of meat in Tartan, but vegetables were hard to come by. They couldn’t be bought even with money.
Even the royal family could only wait until the season to eat some vegetables.
After the small talk, they started to talk about serious business. The food and drink expenses of more than 50,000 people a day were like burning money. The best way to save money was to end the battle quickly.
“Big brother, I heard that the imperial court has mobilized 80,000 troops to encircle and suppress you, so I brought my troops to help you. When are we going to attack the city?”
Yelu Chun followed Xiao Ying’s address and called Xiao Zeyu big brother. He was here to help fight the war, and he had to hurry back after the battle.
It was hazardous for two-thirds of the country’s military strength to be taken away!
“The current situation is like this. The capital is heavily guarded, and the army is gathering. Food is also constantly being transported into the city. We have robbed a few waves of food, which is enough for the army now. We didn’t find they have mortars, but we can’t be completely sure. The only news is that Old Thief Wan is looking for Qin Tie’s daughter.”
Xiao Zeyu told everyone about the current situation and his plans to attack the city.
“Shuisheng, I don’t think the same as you. Qin Tie must be helping Old Thief Wan to make mortars. That’s why Old Thief Wan helped him find his daughter.”
Su Qing no longer believed in Qin Tie. Her thoughts were the complete opposite of Xiao Zeyu’s.
“Big brother, this might be Old Thief Wan’s trick to trick you into attacking the city.”
Yelu Chun said from the side. He was a member of the royal family. The members of the royal family were all suspicious and thought deeper into everything.
“No matter what tricks Old Thief Wan plays? Tomorrow was the best day to attack the city..”
