Murong Chen looked at Murong Hao under the tower and said:

"Royal brother, leave Ren Le'an to me."

"Okay, let's exchange General Han and Master Li." Murong Hao put away his lazy expression and said seriously.

"You can only change one person, you choose." Murong Chen negotiated with him on the tower.

"Tianyi, take Ren Le'an to the military camp to be a military prostitute and serve 30 soldiers every night." Murong Hao raised his voice so that Murong Chen could hear him.

"Murong Hao, how dare you!" Murong Chen gritted his teeth in anger.

"Brother, you have the final say whether to change or not. Ren Le'an's life or death is in your own hands." Murong Hao handed over the decision-making power to Murong Chen.

"I..." Murong Chen hesitated.

"Prince An, we can't change. You're crazy. It's just a woman. I will give you as many women as you want. We can't ruin our plan."

Zhu Xiannan on the side saw Murong Chen wavering and quickly tried to dissuade him.

"Tianyi, pull her down and let her serve the soldiers immediately." Murong Hao put pressure on Murong Chen.

"Yes." Tianyi pulled Ren Le'an back.

"Murong Hao, don't you even let women go?" Murong Chen's eyes turned red.

"Why should you let her go? The emperor himself doesn't cherish her. He keeps saying that he is looking for her. In the face of interests, it is better to give up on her than on her. You can give up on her, let alone me. I don't even know her, she is just a woman." Murong Hao looked indifferent.

"Chen Lang, save me, save me..." Ren Lean was pulled back by Tianyi and shouted for help.

"Brother Imperial, you'd better not regret it." Murong Hao continued to remind Murong Chen on the tower.

"Let her come back and I'll take her with you, General Han and Mr. Li." Murong Chen made up his mind. He could not let his beloved woman become a military prostitute under any circumstances.

"Tianyi, come back." Murong Hao spoke.

"Yes." Tianyi responded and pulled Ren Le'an to the front.

"Murong Chen, have you forgotten our agreement? We agreed to resist Prince Rui together, but you messed up our plan because of a woman." Zhu Xiannan roared from the side.

"She is the woman I want in this life. I have been looking for her for more than 10 years. If you let me go, I will exchange you for other things. We have so many troops that Murong Hao dare not enter the city."

Murong Chen vowed that he would save Ren Lean no matter what today.

"Then what will you give me in exchange for this?" Zhu Xiannan threatened without any intention of letting him go.

"I'll give you another ten thousand soldiers." Murong Chen said seriously.

"Only ten thousand, I think General Han and Mr. Li are worth more than ten thousand." Zhu Xiannan added insult to injury.

"I will give you at most 5000 troops and horses." Murong Chen said with a prayer in his tone.

"2, since you think the woman below is worth exchanging for General Han and Master Li, you can exchange 2 soldiers with me, otherwise you won't be able to take her away from me." Zhu Xiannan gave his base price.

"Okay, I'll give you 2 soldiers in exchange, and give me General Han and Master Li now." Murong Chen said anxiously.

"What's the rush? We'll wait until we sign the contract." Zhu Xiannan signaled, and the secret guard on the side brought a pen and paper.

Murong Hao looked at the conversation between the two people on the tower. He couldn't hear it, but he could guess what conditions his imperial brother must have been coerced by Zhu Xiannan in order to exchange for the woman in front of him.

Seeing what they wrote on it, he looked at Ren Lean aside and said coldly:

"Prince An is treason now. If you want him to survive, you'd better persuade him. Maybe my father can spare him a life, otherwise you won't have much time to see him."

"Treason? Who is the other person upstairs?" Ren Lean was shocked when he heard the word treason.

"Zhu Xiannan, the third prince of the Western Region Kingdom, go and persuade King An to hand over your father's 10 troops. Maybe you two have a way out."

Murong Hao wanted to try to persuade his imperial brother through Ren Le'an. This was the last good thing he could do for Murong Chen.

"Why did Prince An do this?" Ren Lean was really puzzled.

"It's up to you to ask him. Instead of taking the good road, you have to go to a dead end."

Murong Hao looked at Murong Chen on the tower. He actually wanted to know the answer as to why his imperial brother chose such a path.

"Okay, let me try."

Ren Le'an sighed, she felt like she had just stepped out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's mouth.

Not long after, General Han and Mr. Li who were on the tower were taken down from the tower by several soldiers and brought to the city gate.

"Tianyi, bring 20 secret guards to escort General Han and Master Li back, and casually remove the soldiers at the city gate. We will be here first today."

"Yes."

Tianyi took orders and led Ren Lean to the city gate with a group of secret guards.

At the city gate, the infantry and archers of the two armies were at war with each other but did not take action.

Tianyi took Ren Lean and exchanged General Han and Master Li with the other party, and quickly evacuated the scene.

General Han and Master Li dragged their wounded bodies to Murong Hao's horse and knelt down:

"Wei Chen, thank you King Rui for saving your life."

Murong Hao jumped off his horse and helped the two adults:

"Two adults, thank you very much. You have suffered a lot. Go back to the camp and let Dr. Hu take a look at your injuries."

Seeing the two important ministers of the imperial court being tortured like this, Murong Hao's eyes were full of coldness.

"Thank you, Prince Rui." The two of them were about to kneel down again, but were stopped by Murong Hao.

"Tianyi, take the two adults to see Dr. Hu."

"Yes."

Several secret guards stepped forward to help the two injured adults back to the military camp.

Murong Hao's goal was achieved today, and he ordered the army to return to camp to repair.

"General Li, write down the casualties of today's soldiers and write down their names. All casualties in every battle in the future must be recorded in the book."

Murong Hao remembered that his Xi'er said that the name of every soldier who died in battle must be recorded by future generations. Starting from this battle, he recorded the names of all soldiers who died on the battlefield.

"Yes." Vice General Li ordered to go down.

After the first battle, Murong Hao did not continue to attack the city and saved General Han and Master Li. This was his purpose in this battle.

Soon, the army retreated back to the camp to repair. Murong Hao ordered his lieutenant general to open up the meat in the granary so that the soldiers could have a good meal tonight and attack the city tomorrow.

After he ordered everything, he went to the camp specially designed for General Han and Master Li to recover from their injuries.

Seeing that Dr. Hu was cleaning the wounds of the two of them, he entered the camp directly.

"We have met Prince Rui." Everyone in the camp saluted when they saw his sudden visit.

"They are all treating their injuries. No need to be polite. Doctor Hu, please continue." Murong Hao found a stool and sat down.

"Prince Rui, thank you for saving me today." General Han took care of his wounds first and spoke first.

"You have suffered for the country, and I will definitely save you. Fortunately, you are fine." Murong Hao is still glad that his imperial brother did not kill two important ministers.

"I didn't expect King An to be traitorous." General Han continued.

"I didn't expect that. General Han, tell me what happened after you arrived in Xihe Prefecture? Why was Xihe Prefecture occupied by Zhu Xiannan?"

Murong Hao wanted to know what happened in Xihe Prefecture, but perhaps only the two parties involved knew the details better.
