Xiao Ran and Gu Chang’an had interacted with the personal guards for many years and were very confident in their strength. Hence, they agreed to this request that they thought they would definitely win without hesitation.

This was good too. She wouldn’t have to rack her brains to think of a way to make her daughter give up. She would give up herself.

Xiao Ran stretched out a hand. “A gentleman’s words.

Xiaoxiao still had a serious expression on her young face. “A gentleman’s

words.”

When they heard this request just now, the personal guards didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. However, looking at the cute and adorable young lady, everyone took the initiative to play with her without saying a word. The child was still young, so it was normal for her to be a little playful. After all, the young lady was also worried about the general a few days ago. It was not easy for her to relax now. How reasonable it was for her to relax.

They decided to hide their strength later and pretend that they could not find

Miss to make her happy.

However, two hours later, the personal guards realized that they really could

not find her—how was that possible?

Even after leaving the battlefield, their martial arts skills did not fall behind. At least, the commotion within one meter could not escape their ears. They were certain that their Miss had not moved more than 30 cm since she hid behind the first tree.

The few of them surrounded the short bush around the tree in confusion. “I

think she should be here.”

Another person scratched his head. “I thought that my martial arts skills had deteriorated. Third Brother, you think so too. Then I shouldn’t have made a

wrong judgment.”

The third person probed the bushes with a puzzled expression. “But where is

she?”

The few of them looked at each other in confusion. “Did Miss get lost in the mountains?”

Thinking of this possibility, the few of them hurriedly took out signal fireworks from their arms and prepared to deal with it as an emergency.

Xiaoxiao, who was watching everything in the space, hurriedly flashed out.

-Hey, no, no, no. I’m here. It’s my own mountain. How can I get lost?”

The personal guards were stunned. They did not believe it and ran to her place to circle a few times.

That’s not right. They had just come here. There was no one here. When did

Miss run over?

Xiaoxiao placed her hands on her hips and looked smug. “Am I powerful?”

It was more than amazing. It was simply amazing. They went around a few more times. “How?”

How could Xiaoxiao say anything? She raised her chin and said mysteriously, “The heavenly secrets can’t be leaked. Just say who won. I can accept two out of

three rounds.”

Everyone was speechless. It was… very difficult to go back on their word.

When they returned to the Ning Family’s courtyard, Gu Chang’an’s expression changed from relaxed to worried. Xiao Ran was also puzzled. She endured it and couldn’t help but ask, “Did you go easy?”

The personal guards had bitter expressions. “I feel even more embarrassed because I didn’t go easy and lost.

It was rare for Xiao Ran to be stunned. “My daughter is so powerful?” If not for the fact that her leg was still injured, she really wanted to investigate it herself.

After thinking for the entire night, Xiao Ran decided to keep her promise. “How do you plan to go? With the military doctors arranged by the Imperial Court?” Xiaoxiao shook her head. “Doctor Gongsun is impatient with the Imperial Court, so we want to leave with Li Muyan.”

The Li Family’s caravan was strong and experienced. They might even be faster than the Imperial Court.

Moreover, they used light-carts and packed simply. The goods were not heavy, and they did not occupy much space. Even if they encountered robbers, they would look down on these sacks filled with dried vegetables.

In conclusion, it was fast and safe to follow the Li Family.

Xiaoxiao felt that her parents were really the role model among all her parents. They did not take her promise seriously just because she was young and really agreed to let her go to the border that night.

However, there was a small additional requirement…

The news that Xiao Ran wanted to treat her leg injury naturally couldn’t be hidden from the Emperor. The Emperor was very gratified to know that someone was able to stop her from being tortured by the foreign object in her flesh and blood. How could he not approve her leave? Moreover, his mind had been filled with the problem of food at the border recently.

This group of profiteers in the Imperial Capital could be considered to have been fattened up. They were very proficient in raising the price and hiding food. The Emperor decided to deal with them ruthlessly in his spare time.

“Is this Li Family a former royal warrant?”

Among the rich businessmen in the Imperial Capital, only the Li Family’s price was reasonable.

Eunuch De had an excellent memory. He remembered everything the Li Family said to the Emperor without even reading it. As most of them were good deeds, the Emperor remembered them.

The next day, the Emperor spread out the matter of gathering food and found an aspiring courtier who volunteered to take on the responsibility. The entire court immediately had an intense dispute because of this. Ever since General Xiong set off for the border with the first batch of supplies, the remaining officials started to push each other. They usually degraded their opponents to nothing, but now, they praised them so much.

This said that Lord Wang had a high reputation and would definitely be able to persuade the rich merchants to donate food. The other said that Lord Li was capable and would definitely make the grain merchants take the initiative to lower their prices. In any case, he was just a useless person who could do nothing.

There were also some people who could not find anyone to praise. They were filled with righteous indignation and scolded the unscrupulous merchants for being shameless. They were simply ridiculous! However, after scolding them for a long time, they did not explain how to gather enough food and send it to the border.

The Emperor took in all of this indifferently, his heart filled with sarcasm. This was the current royal court of Great Xia.

It was no wonder that people like Lu Chen, who was clearly capable, would rather teach in that remote village. If he was not the Emperor, he would not have bothered to look at this group of clowns. No, they were old clowns.

After listening to the nonsense for a long time, the Emperor wanted to yawn. At this moment, a stupid official asked a useless question, “Why don’t we buy the food at a high price first and settle the border matters before thinking about how to deal with those profiteers?”

The Emperor only wanted to sneer. If there was still money in the treasury, would he have to listen to so much nonsense in the morning court?

His gaze drifted and he glanced at the Crown Prince, who was standing obediently in the crowd. He asked, “What do you think, Crown Prince?” The Crown Prince paused for a moment before stepping forward respectfully. “Your Majesty, I think that we can buy grain on credit or reduce taxes in exchange for the grain merchants to give up a portion of the grain to satisfy the border.”

The Emperor narrowed his eyes. Although this method was feasible, he was unhappy.

Moreover, he knew that more than half of those businessmen were related to the Yan Family.

The reason why he let this group of trash in the royal court curse and swear was because he wanted the Crown Prince to hear it. However, even though he heard it, he had no intention of making the Yan Family back down.

The Yan Family, what a Yan Family.

When he looked at the Crown Prince again, the Emperor’s gaze turned cold. With a slight tilt of his head, Eunuch De understood and swung the duster in his hand. After seeing his actions, an urgent report immediately came from outside the hall—

“Your Majesty, General Xiao ordered people to send back 100,000 dans of food.. There are still more on the way…”
