The man laughed dryly and said, "I am the commander of the Xisha border and the military supervisor of the royal family."

"What are you doing here? Tell me."

Nangong Yuan put down the battle report with a calm expression.

But being stared at by her pair of beautifully curved eyes always makes people feel like being stared at by a dangerous beast.

Such strong pressure has never been seen even in front of the group of dignitaries in the Paracel Islands.

The military supervisor was a little timid, but still said, "I came to talk to the general mainly about the Xisha border issue."

"What is there to discuss? The Xisha Islands have been harassing Hongzhou for many years, and countless people in Dajing have been killed and injured. Now that they have moved to your doorstep, are you afraid?"

Hearing this, the military supervisor was somewhat speechless: "General, we can still talk."

"What can you talk to me about? If you are really sincere, you should find someone with high power and authority. How can you put me in a position of military supervisor?"

The next moment, Nangong Yuan slammed the table and said, "You Xisha people are trying to humiliate me on purpose. Someone come and capture them!"

"No, General. I just came to talk to you, not to humiliate you."

But Lin Yun did not even look away and pressed him to the ground. The Xisha people guarding outside wanted to draw their swords but were immediately restrained.

"Come here, Xisha sent assassins to kill me. This is to provoke Dajing. Come here, take my armor and take revenge!"

The soldiers on the spot quickly corrected their actions and soon led their men to the Xisha city.

"No, no!"

The military supervisor was terrified, but there was nothing he could do.

Nangong Yuan led his troops to attack Xisha and harassed them several times before he asked people to make announcements.

"You Xisha dared to humiliate my general. Now we will teach you a lesson. Come and die quickly!"

The general who heard this was furious: "This Nangong Yuan is really cruel."

But now that the Paracel Islands have suffered heavy losses, it would probably be difficult to fight another one.

So they held the city gate and refused to move.

But this was useless. Nangong Yuan sent out artillery and threw fire bombs at the enemy's city every now and then.

This went on for five or six days, and the other party finally couldn't take it anymore.

"They are forcing us to make a choice. If we don't surrender, that lunatic will definitely attack us."

"Quick, go and send the message back so His Majesty can make a decision soon!"

The situation at the border is very complicated, and Nangong Yuan is raising the stakes.

The only reason she did this was to gain an advantage in the negotiations.

No matter what, the efforts will not go in vain.

As expected, Xisha quickly submitted a negotiation letter, hoping to have a talk with Emperor Dajing.

The one who came this time was Ding Ran.

Nangong Yuan had no objection to this.

She sent her army to the border just to find someone to take charge of the Xisha Islands.

Now that I'm here, what else is there to be dissatisfied about?

Meanwhile, Kyoto.

········Reports of great victories came again and again.

From the initial doubts, to the subsequent surprise, to the final numbness, everyone has become accustomed to it.

In just half a year, Nangong Yuan caused the Xisha Islands to lose their main generals one after another.

Such talent and ability are by no means amazing.

And Kyoto's contempt for her turned into admiration and jealousy.

But it was all useless. They couldn't move the people who held military power even if they wanted to.

········

"Xisha wants to negotiate now, so Dalu cannot die."

Xiao Heyun watched the court officials quarreling without changing his expression.

"No matter what, it is a good thing to win the battle and put an end to the arrogance of the Xisha Islands."

But some people also said that Nangong Yuan was too arrogant, and what if he was retaliated against by beating her like this?

Soon he was scolded by others.

"Oh? You mean we should just passively accept being beaten, and if we fight back we're courting death?"

"I didn't mean that."

"Then what do you mean? I really don't understand how Dajing could have an official like you. You are such a disgrace to society!"

Both sides were spitting and cursing, each one more unpleasant than the other.

This gave the emperor a headache.

"That's enough, stop arguing!"

Everyone fell silent and looked at the emperor.

"General Hongyin did a great job in this matter. She taught Xisha a lesson to prevent them from being arrogant and disrespectful. It is the duty of a general to defend the country's territory. You should not slander her for this."

Since the emperor had spoken, they certainly didn't dare to refute.

So Nangong Yuan was promoted again.

She had made great military achievements, but the emperor now didn't know what title to give her, so he temporarily asked the Ministry of Rites to draft one.

However, none of this is the most important thing.

"Master, someone wants to take action today."

Xiao Heyun turned around, his expression unchanged: "Who?"

"It could be anyone. The person sent by the other party has a complicated background and it is hard to find out for the time being."

In response, Xiao Heyun just sneered: "It doesn't matter, ask someone to protect him, he... doesn't need to die yet."

"Don't worry, we have set up a trap. If they want to kill people, they will also suffer eight hundred casualties themselves."

Dalu was a very important person, and now that he was dead, there would definitely be trouble.

Besides, how could he ignore the person that Nangong Yuan took special care of?

········

Kyoto is very lively. The Hongzhou Army is very famous nowadays, and most storytellers are bragging about it.

"General Hongyin was wearing armor and yelled to kill these bandits. The Hongzhou army rushed forward and killed all the bandits in Xisha..."

In response, Li Jin was speechless.

What the hell.

But the prince actually liked to listen, and he often came to these teahouses to listen to storytellers.

Because Nangong Yuan has been so high-profile these days and has won battles one after another, the storytellers in Kyoto included her in the story.

"The general is a huge man with great strength. He can overturn a horse with one hand."

Li Jin couldn't help but twitch his lips: "If the girl heard this, she would be so angry that she would die."

But Xiao Heyun did not laugh. He rested his chin on his hand and looked into the distance, listening to the person the storyteller was talking about, looking very lonely.

Sometimes, Li Jin felt that his own prince was really miserable.

It would have been fine if I didn't meet any good people along the way, but I finally fell in love with a girl, and who knew that she turned out to be a heroic woman.

So... the two people moved a few steps away from each other.

How can one achieve the desired result in this way?

Li Jin sighed and felt sad for a moment.

No one had expected things to turn out like this, but at the same time... it also means that the gap between the two people is getting smaller and smaller.

Nangong Yuan stood here, enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

It was so in the past, and it is even more so now.

"Tell me, is she really so brave at the border?"

He had fought against the Xisha people before, and they were not easy to deal with.

So how did she put so much effort into these seemingly brilliant battle reports?

Nangong Yuan is extremely serious about everything she does, she will not do things perfunctorily, so...how difficult can it be?

He was also a general, how could he not know?
