Sheng Chuli's mouth corners slightly raised, with a hint of pampering and helplessness.

He raised his hand and gently tapped Sheng Chuhan's head, making a crisp sound.

He smiled and explained, "My porridge is outside drying. I like to drink porridge a little cooler, so it tastes better. Don't waste time, drink this bowl of porridge quickly while it's hot."

"Although our Sheng Family is not as wealthy as the Xuan Cang Dynasty, how is it possible that we cannot even afford a few bowls of porridge? So, don't say such nonsense in the future. If the soldiers nearby hear it, it will have a very bad impact." At this point, Sheng Chuli's expression became slightly serious, and his tone became a little heavier.

After hearing these words, Sheng Chuhan suddenly showed an expression of sudden enlightenment on his face, and then hurriedly nodded seriously, and solemnly assured Sheng Chuli:

"Brother, you are right. I said the wrong thing. I will keep my mouth shut in the future and never say anything nonsense again. I understand the principle that 'the mouth can bring disaster'. I will be careful with my words and actions in the future."

"Alas, thinking about what I just said, it was indeed not appropriate. Now that the army has just set out for the border, how could there be a food shortage? If I said that, it would seriously disrupt the morale of the army. Fortunately, you, my second brother, reminded me in time, otherwise I don’t know how much trouble I would have caused. In the future, no matter when and where, I will be extra careful with my words. After all, I am now representing the Shengqiong Dynasty, and every word and deed is related to the reputation of our Shengqiong Dynasty. I must not speak casually." Having said this, Sheng Chuhan couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

Sheng Chuli looked at Sheng Chuhan who was mumbling to himself for a long time. He frowned slightly and wondered in his heart how could this little girl be so talkative?

At this moment, Sheng Chuhan suddenly sighed, like a deflated ball.

When Sheng Chuli saw her open her mouth to speak again, he took the opportunity to pick up the bowl of steaming porridge, quickly brought it to Sheng Chuhan's mouth, and then stuffed a spoonful of porridge into her mouth without hesitation.

Sheng Chuli was feeding the porridge while frowning and saying, "Eat quickly! You are just a kid, why are you talking so much nonsense? After eating, take a good rest. We still have a long way to go tomorrow!"

The defenseless Sheng Chuhan had his mouth full of porridge stuffed into his mouth and almost choked.

She widened her eyes, her face full of complaints and dissatisfaction, and glared at her second brother fiercely.

But she could only be angry but not say anything, and secretly complained in her heart.

"Hmph, I can drink it myself. Second brother, you should go and drink your portion." Sheng Chuhan muttered unhappily. At the same time, he reached out and forcefully snatched the spoon, and drank it in big gulps as if in a huff.

Seeing Sheng Chuhan's look, Sheng Chuli couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He shook his head gently, then turned and walked out of the carriage, leaving Sheng Chuhan alone in the carriage sulking.

Early the next morning, the sun shone through the clouds, bringing a touch of warmth and brightness to the entire earth.

At this moment, a soldier suddenly ran in and reported: "General, urgent news from the palace!"

Sheng Chuli was slightly startled, put down the pen in his hand, and looked at the soldier.

The soldier quickly stepped forward and respectfully handed over a letter.

Sheng Chuli took the letter, unfolded it and saw that it was sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The content of the letter moved his heart. It said: "The Xuancang Dynasty learned that our dynasty was in a critical situation and sent a large army to help. In addition, the Xumi King and Queen also came in person."

Seeing this, Sheng Chuli couldn't help but smile slightly, and gently folded the letter and placed it on the table.

Seeing this, Liu Teng, who was standing by, walked up curiously and asked, "General, what did the letter say that made you smile like that?"

As he said that, he reached out his hand to take the note and take a look at it.

Sheng Chuli waved his hand gently to stop him.

He didn't want others to see how Sheng Chuyi addressed him in the letter.

Liu Teng was slightly stunned, and then he heard Sheng Chuli say with a smile: "It was the letter from the Crown Prince, saying that the Xuan Cang Dynasty sent a million Xuan troops to help our Shengqiong Dynasty. They really came at the right time. This move not only shows their caring and friendly attitude towards our dynasty, but also shows their wisdom."

After saying this, the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously again, and Xuan Ming really got angry.

After hearing what Sheng Chuli said, Liu Teng became more confused.

He didn't understand why the general had such a high opinion of the Xuan Cang Dynasty's actions.

So he couldn't help but ask: "General, I am stupid and don't quite understand what you mean. I hope you can explain it clearly."

Sheng Chuli glanced at Liu Teng, who was full of confusion, slowly stood up, walked to the door of the tent and looked into the distance.

He explained thoughtfully, "Now our dynasty is facing foreign invasion and the situation is tense. Xuan Cang Dynasty sending troops to support us at this time can, on the one hand, consolidate the friendship between the two countries; on the other hand, if we successfully repel the enemy, it will be one less trouble for them. Isn't it smart to kill two birds with one stone?"

Liu Teng touched the back of his head and said a little embarrassedly, "I understood the first half of what the general said, but I didn't understand the last sentence."

Sheng Chuli sighed and said patiently, "If Qiong Yi succeeds in this war, and the Void Continent and Ghost Continent annex the Holy Dome Continent, it will not be a good thing for Xuan Cang Continent. On the contrary, it is likely to threaten Xuan Cang Continent's status as the first continent. They sent troops to help us, firstly to establish a relationship with our continent, and secondly to take this opportunity to deter those who have ulterior motives."

After listening to Sheng Chuli's analysis, Liu Teng nodded in sudden enlightenment and muttered to himself, "So that's how it is. They help us more to consolidate their own position."

Liu Teng looked at Sheng Chuli with admiration and praised excitedly, "General, you are amazing. You have analyzed so many things based on just this one piece of information."

He continued, "No matter what, it's a good thing that Xuancang Continent sent the Xuan Army to help us. Should we pass this news on to the soldiers?"

Sheng Chuli raised his hand to stop him, "No, the Xuan army hasn't joined us yet, so the news can't leak out. As long as we don't join up with the Xuan army for one day, there is a possibility of accidents. Before we join up with the Xuan army, just pretend you don't know about this. Explain it clearly to the other generals and tell them not to leak the news."

Liu Teng nodded. Although he was a little confused, he still accepted the order and retreated.
