Get pregnant soon, and beauties will have many happy pregnancies

Ji Yunhuan curled the corners of her mouth. Up to now, Cai Pengju had been completely led by her and even tried his best to prove his loyalty.

She won this round!

Hu Anshan's face looked ugly. It was not that he did not believe in Cai Pengju's loyalty. Cai Pengju was a martial arts expert, but he was not very smart and was stubborn in doing things. He promoted Cai Pengju because of his loyalty.

This idiot, he can't even handle such a small matter. He was fooled by Ji Yunhuan in just a few words. He is so useless!

Ji Yunhuan was also a man who was not in a clear mind. Anyone with a discerning eye knew who he should join. Obviously, he was the main general of Jiayuguan, but Ji Yunhuan insisted on helping Yuwen Yi and always went against him.

He asked Cai Pengju to come and take away the wounded soldiers in order to anger Yuwen Yi.

If Yuwen Yi does not rescue, then no one in Jiayuguan will listen to Yuwen Yi's orders anymore. Jiayuguan must be firmly in his hands without any doubt.

If Yuwen Yi came to the rescue, that would be even better. He could instigate internal strife among the soldiers on the battlefield, and then he would come forward to calm the situation. By then, people in the capital would have even more reasons to report Yuwen Yi.

He had a good plan, but unfortunately it was ruined by Ji Yunhuan.

Hu Anshan waved his hand pretending to be magnanimous, "Forget it, let them go. You are too rigid. Now that we are facing a powerful enemy, such small mistakes are not important. Working together to resist the enemy is the top priority."

Cai Pengju released the man immediately.

Outside Jiayuguan, war drums roared; the Wujin people had already begun attacking the city.

Jiayu Pass is the most important pass in the north, easy to defend but difficult to attack. How to deploy soldiers and how to defend the city at the lowest cost has been formulated since Duke Ji took over Jiayu Pass. The soldiers have practiced it frequently and have already memorized it.

Most of the defenders in the city were former subordinates of the Duke, so there was no need for Hu Anshan to give any orders. They began to defend the city spontaneously.

The Wujin people originally wanted to take advantage of the peace talks to kill Hu Anshan, and even better, to attack Jiayuguan in the chaos. Unfortunately, they were blocked and were a step slow. Now they can only attack the city step by step.

The air was filled with the smell of burning flesh. The Wujin men attacking the city fell down one by one. No one could climb up the city wall for the time being, and they couldn't attack in for a while.

Yuwen Yi breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Cai Pengju would continue to cause trouble, so he asked his men to send the wounded soldiers to the wounded camp.

He himself was also injured, and Ji Yunhuan skillfully found the medicine and bandaged Yuwen Yi.

They did not go too far away from the city gate and kept a close eye on the battle situation on the front line.

Yuwen Yi was silent for a moment, looking at Ji Yunhuan seriously with his bright eyes, his tone was particularly sincere.

"Thank you for what you did just now. I don't know how to say nice things. If you need me in the future, just let me know. We can be considered to live and die together."

"But I may not be able to help you much, Miss Ji. You are very smart, much smarter than me, and your martial arts are not weak either. You have so many masters around you. You have made contributions this time, so you should be promoted. Unfortunately, I can only confer the rank of a fifth-rank general. Anything above that will be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Personnel."

"I will write a petition to the Ministry of Personnel to get you promoted, but most of the time my petitions for merit fall on deaf ears. I don't know if it will work this time."

Ji Yunhuan sat cross-legged on the ground. She was not injured as Yuwen Yi blocked two attacks for her. However, her internal energy was exhausted and she needed to recuperate.

"General Yi, you are in the capital, in the Ministry of Personnel, don't you have any officials you know? Are you sure your memorial can reach the emperor?"

Yuwen Yi's broad shoulders slumped, and he was somewhat discouraged. "No official is willing to be close to me. Your Majesty has so many princes. I have neither outstanding talent nor a reputation for filial piety, nor the support of a prominent maternal family. Your Majesty doesn't like me either, so naturally no one is willing to befriend me."

"Back then, the Western Border was in chaos. In order to boost morale, my father said he would lead the army himself. The court officials suggested that the prince lead the expedition on his behalf, and my father agreed immediately. No one else was willing to go, so my father chose me."

"But I don't understand those twists and turns. Some people have shown their goodwill to me, but I think they have ulterior motives. I didn't say anything, so they scolded me for not knowing the current situation. In fact, King Rui also wanted to win me over..."

Yuwen Yi glanced at Ji Yunhuan with some uneasiness. It was rumored that Ji Yunhuan was deeply in love with Prince Rui. He felt that Ji Yunhuan might not like what he was going to say next.

Ji Yunhuan didn't understand why Yuwen Yi stopped talking, and looked at him in confusion, "What happened to Prince Rui?"

Yuwen Yi felt that he couldn't let Ji Yunhuan stay in the dark, so he said bluntly: "Prince Rui is not a good guy. People in the capital say he is a virtuous king, who can compose a poem in seven steps, is a natural prodigy, and was made a prince at the age of five. But he is not virtuous at all, and he secretly withheld the soldiers' food and wages!"

"I went to him to argue, but he asked me to work for him and said he would not treat me unfairly. He said that I was the son of a prostitute and would never be able to hold a high position in my lifetime. It would be better for me to join him and he would guarantee me a lifetime of wealth and glory!"

"But I don't think it should be like this. Soldiers fought in the western border, but they could only eat food mixed with sand. Soldiers who died in the battle received no compensation, and many orphans and widows had no way to survive. So I collected evidence in private and exposed their evil deeds to Your Majesty."

"But King Rui turned right into wrong. The officials who had promised to help me also turned against me. The culprit became a captain who was transporting grain. I knew that the captain was innocent, but all the evidence pointed to him. His entire family was executed, while King Rui was safe and sound."

"Later, I gradually understood that perhaps I had offended many people that time. No one in the court would speak for me. Even if I made many achievements, I would not be able to get the support of the court officials. People like King Rui were the wise kings in their hearts. It was really ironic."

Ji Yunhuan knew that Prince Rui was not a good person, but she didn't expect him to be such a bad person!

In her eyes, Prince Rui was the orthodox one in the previous life. It was natural for the court to support Prince Rui, the generals should also support Prince Rui, and the forces in the martial arts world should also submit to Prince Rui. After all, Prince Rui was so virtuous and outstanding that other princes could not compare with Prince Rui at all.

While competing with Su Ziyan for the favor of King Rui, she also spared no effort to help King Rui, hoping to get a little sympathy from him.

It's really ridiculous that such a selfish, insidious and hypocritical person actually became the emperor!

Yuwen Yi whispered, "It doesn't matter if you don't believe me. After all, you have been married for three years and you still like him so much. You may think I am trying to instigate you, but I really don't have any bad intentions."

"When you return to Beijing in the future, you must be careful. Even if he is your former husband, you must be careful and don't be fooled by his appearance again."

Ji Yunhuan couldn't help but laugh, "General Yi, has anyone ever told you that you really can't speak at all, and you're not good at comforting people."

Yuwen Yi scratched his head awkwardly, "My mother always scolds me like this, never mind, I knew you didn't believe it."

"I believe it!" Ji Yunhuan said firmly, "Of course I believe it! People are always deceived by sweet words, but the general is loyal, brave, kind, and tenacious. He remains determined even in difficult situations. The general's pure heart is the most precious."
