while Yun Si and Eleven beside him looked at each other in astonishment.I have to admit, they'd been by their prince's side for so many years, this was the first time they'd ever seen such a troubled...The few brothers in Xuntang Valley looked at each other.

Some people even directly said, "So this Xizi Ke'er princess was still thinking about a toad wanting to eat swan meat, wasn't she"

"...."

As soon as he said that, Feng Ming's brows furrowed immediately, and she rolled her eyes at him, saying angrily, "Who did you compare to a swan"

"!"

The brother quickly bowed his head, "Master Valley Lord, forgive me, it was my fault."

Seeing this, others couldn't help but giggle.

Feng Ming narrowed his cold eyes, scanning the room with an ambiguous expression. "Keep it all to yourselves."

These people really borrowed courage from the heavens, daring to laugh at him

After being reprimanded, everyone immediately stiffened their faces and responded in unison, "Yes."

At this point, Feng Ming continued to talk about the real issue with them. "Xizi Ke'er did need our help before, but now that King Beijang's plan has succeeded, Xizi Pan'er has brought those 60,000 soldiers under her command."

And after the deterrence of our explosives today, those sixty thousand plus soldiers will absolutely not dare to betray her again.

"Moreover, Xizi Ke'er thought that we still needed to rely on her troops to leave Xiliang Country, so she dared to show her true face in front of me."

In her eyes, she thought we stayed here right now because we had to.

After all, there are only a dozen or so of us. We can't possibly match the Empress's two hundred thousand soldiers. So, in Xizi Ke'er's eyes, our relationship is one of mutual use.

"I thought you wouldn't dare to part ways with her at this crucial moment, and would only dare to speak those words before me tonight."

"Hmph!" Feng Ming suddenly let out a cold laugh, "Just for the things she said tonight, this seat hasn't immediately taken her head, already enough to give her face."

"Speaking of which, his dark eyes grew even deeper. He glanced at everyone present and said, "From now on, we have nothing to do with that Xi Zi Ke'er anymore. Now go back to the camp and explain to A Tang and the others. Bring along Han Yun and the rest, and we will leave immediately."

Now that Xunluo has brought the explosives, and Xizi Ke'er and the Empress have begun fighting, the Empress likely won't be able to spare many troops to deal with them. Therefore, they can leave now.

After Feng Ming finished speaking, everyone bowed their hands and said, "Yes, Valley Master."

Upon completion, everyone immediately turned and rushed towards the encampment of Xi Zi Ke'er's army to the west.

……

Meanwhile, Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang were still on top of the mountain.

It was deep in the night, and all was still. Darkness blanketed the surroundings. The wind howled through the trees, their branches swaying rhythmically. Every now and then, eerie animal calls pierced the silence, deepening the somber atmosphere of the night.

An Xuetang really tilted her head back, gazing at the sky above. After a moment, she sighed helplessly, "There were so many stars just now, but it's only been a short while Now the clouds are thick as ink, the weather truly changes on a whim."

Mo Yunjing's arms circled around her shoulders, "It's cold at night, and the wind is strong on the mountain. We should head back."

"Alright, then let's go back first. They should be awake by now after the poison wears off. It'll be perfect timing to negotiate."

Mo Yunjing hummed in response, then stood up first.

He pulled An Xue Tang up with one hand, but unexpectedly, because she had been sitting for too long, this sudden rise caused her legs to become unsteady. She fell directly into his arms.

An Xuetang instantly smiled and rubbed her forehead against his chest, "A Jing, I was wrong."

Mo Yunjing's lips curled into a shallow smile, "But for me, I didn't see that Madam was admitting her mistake."

Someone was admitting their fault while intentionally teasing him.

"Perhaps sensing the very familiar 'danger,' An Xuetang immediately lifted her head from his chest. "

Before she could even open her mouth, Mo Yunjing lowered his head and planted a kiss on her cheek. His voice was husky, "Tangtang, if you want to tease your husband next time, do it to this standard."

An Xuetang: “...”

Just say you want to kiss me, why do you need so many reasons

But she also knew that after returning this time, a new round of hectic pace would follow immediately.

This road ahead is probably very dangerous. In order to return to Beijing as soon as possible, they don't have time to sit down and enjoy the moon and stars like they did tonight.

Like this rare and tranquil moment tonight, it will probably be difficult to find such an opportunity in the following period.

So, An Xuetang didn't push him away either this time.

Mo Yunjing's kiss had now drifted from her cheek to her thin lips.

At first, it was just a taste, but when An Xuetang's hand proactively hooked onto his neck, he skillfully pried open her jaw, and the kiss...became hot and lingering.

Mo Yunjing's hand around her waist tightened even further.

The two were already inseparable as husband and wife, with children between them. To Mo Yunjing, this physical intimacy was far from enough.

Unfortunately, the circumstances here don't allow him to do anything about it.

He didn't let go for what felt like an eternity, and finally, he relented. Their foreheads touched, his eyes, filled with desire and longing, seemed about to overflow.

Looking into his pair of deep, black eyes that seemed to want to pull her in, An Xuetang understood everything. She suddenly laughed softly, her voice a little hoarse, "A-Jing, it's time we go home."

Mo Yunjing hummed in response, then hugged her tightly. "Alright, let's go home."

The two embraced on the mountaintop for a moment, until An Xuetang personally helped Mo Yunjing put on the face covering. Then, they turned and went down the mountain.

……

Just as the two were about to return to camp, they encountered two brothers from the Qingyun Pavilion.

The two brothers stayed in the woods, waiting for Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang to come down the mountain.

At this moment, seeing Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang, the two brothers from Qingyun Pavilion quickly stood up and walked over. They bowed to Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang, saying, “Northern Border King, Northern Border Princess.”

Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang slightly nodded. An Xuetang saw them appear here, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she subconsciously asked, "They came to me this afternoon"

A brother of the Qingyun Pavilion immediately smiled and nodded, "Your Highness is brilliant. Fortunately, His Royal Highness and your Highness left in time. Shortly after Your Royal Highness and your Highness left, those people came to seek your Highness for help."

An Xue Tang let out a cold smile, "After all, with their army doctors' abilities, they couldn't find an antidote, of course they had to ask for my help."

She had just finished speaking when Feng Ming and the brothers from Xuntang Valley rushed back.

Seeing Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang and the others outside the camp, Feng Ming's deep eyes sank instantly, and he quickened his pace to An Xuetang's side.

Before An Xue Tang could speak, he blurted out, "On a night like this, with such wind and darkness, how are you here Did something happen at the camp What did that group of people do"words, An Xuetang actually understood. All that Ye Er had done was for Xiao Qin's reputation.The fact that Xiaoqin moved into the Ye Residence before they were married couldn't be kept secret for long...
