Xiao Yushi pondered in the study for a long time, and finally broke the silence: "Are they the soldiers of the Red Feather Camp? Who else is accompanying them?" His voice was low and firm, as if he was asking a vital secret.

"The deputy commander is General Lin Dalang, and Master Nan Xuannan is the supervisor." Li Dui replied, with a trace of worry on his face, as if he had a premonition that the upcoming parting would be full of unknowns and dangers.

"So, what is the plan to leave the city?" Xiao Yushi frowned slightly, his eyes as sharp as a knife, "How to transport the food and grass for the four thousand sergeants? Who is responsible for the supplies?"

Li Dui took a deep breath and said: "The plan to leave the city is to move in batches. The food and grass have been transported first. General Liao Quangui is in charge and will meet in Changzhou."

Xiao Yushi nodded, a hint of approval flashed in his eyes: "In that case, you should set off as soon as possible, and don't miss the important event."

Li Dui silently packed his luggage. Although the sword and shoulder armor had not been used for a long time, they were still shining brightly. His heart was full of expectations and worries about the unknown, but more importantly, he was firm and determined.

Xiao Yushi looked at Li Dui's leaving figure, feeling an inexplicable emotion well up in his heart. He turned back to the study and began to pack his things. He knew that this departure would be a long journey and the task he faced was extremely difficult.

Soon after, Xiao Yushi came to the Yushitai, ready to ask for leave from Lord Jin. Master Jin looked at him with some surprise: "You want to take leave for so long? What's going on?"

Xiao Yushi was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "My mother is seriously ill, and there is no mistress to take care of her at home. I must go back and take care of her myself."

Lord Jin snorted coldly when he heard this: "Isn't there a maid in the house? Do you have to take care of her yourself?"

Mr. Jin has some opinions on Xiao Yushi's past foolish decisions.

Xiao Yushi did not answer, but silently endured Master Jin's blame. He knew that his decision might disappoint Mr. Jin, but he knew better that it was his responsibility and obligation to go to Lingnan.

Lord Jin looked at Xiao Yushi's silent expression, and a complex emotion surged in his heart. He has always been on good terms with Xiao Yushi and knows his personality and character. Although he felt that Xiao Yushi's decision was a bit impulsive, he also understood that for a filial son, his mother's life was undoubtedly the most important.

So, he took a deep breath and said earnestly to Xiao Yushi: "Since you have already decided, how can I not fulfill it? As a colleague and friend, I have one thing to remind you. Although your mother is ill, It’s heavy, but you should also pay attention to your own body and safety. After all, you have more important tasks and responsibilities to bear.”

Xiao Yushi nodded and looked at Lord Jin gratefully. He knew that Master Jin's words were out of sincerity and concern. He took a deep breath, then turned and left.

On the way back home, Xiao Yushi felt extremely heavy. He knew that leaving this time would mean that he would face countless dangers and challenges. But he also understands that this is his mission and responsibility.

Returning to the mansion, he personally summoned the housekeeper. He looked at the housekeeper with a serious and solemn expression: "From today on, both Miss Fifth and I are not in the house, and you will be in charge of all matters in the house."

The butler was a little surprised when he heard this, but he still replied respectfully: "Yes, sir."

Xiao Yushi continued: "You must take good care of Miss Yunmeng. The eldest son serves in the court and does not come back often. If the eldest son comes back, you must take his words as an order."

The butler nodded, indicating that he understood.

Xiao Yushi took a deep breath, and then said: "I am going to the countryside to choose a cemetery for the old lady, so that she can rest peacefully in a hundred years. During the time when I am away, you must do your best to take care of the old lady. However, she is seriously ill and may not be able to live a comfortable life. "
