Early the next morning, as soon as Ji Xiang woke up, Grandma Yu was waiting at the door.

Knowing that it was Murong Yan and his wife who were visiting, Ji Xiang simply freshened up and went out.

"Your Excellency and Madam came to Jixiang so early, could it be..."

Madam Murong hurriedly stepped forward, "Princess, I told you all your intentions last night. Your Excellency wants to come and see you this morning before going to the government office."

Ji Xiang looked at Murong Yan expectantly.

Murong Yan opened his mouth and said, "Princess, if I cannot do what you want, I will openly stand with you now, but I guarantee that I will not help anyone in the war in Xuzhou City."

"Mr. Murong already knows that the new crown prince is going to fight Prince Ning in Xuzhou?"

Murong Yan nodded, "Suzhou is only more than three hundred miles away from Xuzhou. When the Xiong Family Army arrived in Xuzhou, someone sent news."

"Is he from Tian Muhuan? 1"

Murong Yan was startled, "Does the princess know?"

Ji Xiang smiled coldly, "Tian Muhuan only brought 50,000 soldiers to go south. He would inevitably receive news of the defeat of the Zhendong Army on the way. Naturally, he would only be able to control the situation along the way. Not only did he have to borrow troops and horses, but also You stand on his side."

Murong Yan nodded, "Although I have received his message, I have not replied yet."

"Why didn't you reply to him in time?" Jixiang wondered.

Mrs. Murong explained, "Since you have been on duty in Suzhou, the people of Suzhou have lived a peaceful and happy life even though they are not rich and wealthy. You only want to protect the people of Suzhou and do not want to get involved and cause people's lives to suffer."

Ji Xiang did not expect Murong Yan to be so caring for the people, so he immediately thanked Murong Yan on behalf of the people of Suzhou.

"Your Majesty loves the people so much, which is a blessing to the people of Suzhou. Jixiang would like to thank your Majesty for your kindness to the people of Suzhou!"

Murong Yan was startled, "Your Majesty, he..."

"The emperor loves the people, I think you should know something about it. This time King Duan was forced to a corner of Fengyu County. He knew the hardships of the people even more, so he has issued an edict that any official who does not love the people generously will not be promoted in the future. "

Murong and his wife looked at each other.

"Princess, you have no choice but to do this. I hope the princess can understand us."

Ji Xiang smiled, "Actually, this is what we wanted before we came here. After all, war is a waste of people and money. If we can prevent more people from participating, it is better not to allow more people to participate."

"With the prince and the Xiong family army, Xuzhou should still be able to defend it."

When Ji Xiang said this, he looked at Madam Murong and Murong Yan, "We will leave Suzhou for Xuzhou today. Thank you Madam and Sir for taking us in!"

Saying this, Yingying bowed.

Madam Murong quickly stretched out her hand to support Ji Xiang, "You are leaving today?!"

"Exactly. Now that your Excellency has given you the answer, we have completed our mission and it is time to go to Suzhou to help the prince and the others."

"You girls are going to the battlefield?! Xuzhou is the most dangerous place at the moment. If you go there, I'm afraid you will..."

"Madam, you don't have to worry about this. When we were in Fengyu County, we only had more than a thousand people, but we had to face a crowd of ten thousand in Jiyue Villa. My cousin Jiang Peipei and I were also at the front."

Madam Murong was surprised.

Murong Yan also looked at Ji Xiang in disbelief.

"At that time, in order to protect the emperor, we no longer had to worry about too much. Otherwise, the emperor would be in danger, and we, as sons and ministers, would not end well, right?"

Ji Xiang said it calmly, but Mrs. Murong's eyes turned red when she heard it.

She suddenly grabbed Murong Yan's sleeve, "Master, Wu Ningjun can't be a coward at this time!"

Murong Yan was stunned, "Madam, we didn't last night..."

"Yes, I didn't let you come forward last night, but even a pregnant woman like the princess went to the front line. As soldiers of the Great Holy Dynasty, as men, you shouldn't hide behind women. !”

"So, husband, I support you in sending troops to Xuzhou to help the prince!"

When Madam Murong spoke, the determination in her eyes was completely different from that of a woman, and more like that of a general who had been on the battlefield for many years.

Ji Xiang immediately bowed down and saluted Mrs. Murong, "Thank you so much, madam, for speaking up! I can't thank you enough! If Mr. Murong doesn't want to go to Xuzhou, I will definitely explain the reason for you in front of the prince and the emperor. The prince and the emperor will definitely not blame you. of."

Madam Murong looked at Murong Yan, "Don't hesitate, this is the way to go. King Duan took advantage of the emperor's covert clothes to go south to usurp power and seize the throne. This is not fair and aboveboard. If you go with him, I'm afraid your good reputation for loving the people will be ruined in the future." It’s gone!”

Murong Yan was startled, "Why did Madam say that?"

"The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. The person sitting in the hall is not honest in his actions. Can his people be loved by the people?"

"Okay, don't hesitate. If you don't want to press the entire Wuning army, then you should send half of the soldiers to Xuzhou to help the emperor and the prince."

Seeing that Murong Yan was still hesitating, Ji Xiang said, "Sir, please don't be influenced by Madam and make a hasty decision. This matter is not a trivial matter. You should think carefully before making a decision."

After saying that, he turned around to go back, "I won't leave you sir and madam here. I will go back and wake up the princess and my cousin. We will leave after breakfast."

When Madam Murong saw that Ji Xiang and his entourage were really about to leave, she hurriedly said, "Princess, don't be anxious yet. Since you are unwilling to go to Xuzhou immediately, I will go back to pack up and take Ren'er to go with you!"

Jixiang was really surprised now.

Murong Yan also became anxious, "Madam, please don't mess around!"

Mrs. Murong said, "I'm not fooling around. Since Wu Ningjun Jiedu is an indecisive person, I can only go to the military camp and order those brave men to follow me to Xuzhou!"

After saying that, he turned around and left, "Princess, please wait for me, I'll get ready right now!"

Seeing that his wife was serious, Murong Yan quickly agreed, "Princess, I will arrange for the Wuning Army to reinforce Xuzhou immediately, immediately!"

After saying that, he quickly ran after his wife.

Ji Xiang couldn't help but smile as he looked at the two couples leaving in a hurry.
