Liu Yan's hand shook so much that she almost dropped the tea leaves on the ground.

Shen Lanxi smiled and said, "Don't be nervous or afraid. I'm usually very easy to talk to!"

The more she said this, the more nervous Liu Yanhui became.

I wasn't nervous at first!

"My lord, if there is nothing else, I will go and get busy first." Liu Yanhui's heart was beating fast.

Shen Lanxi pointed at the stool and motioned for him to sit down.

"We haven't sat down and talked properly since we left Beijing. Now that we have time, let's chat!"

Liu Yanhui sat down nervously.

"I heard your mother was helping in the sewing room or the kitchen?"

Liu Yanhui's heart skipped a beat and she immediately began to wonder if she had done something wrong at work.

"My mother went to the sewing room, and my sister went to the guard post!"

Shen Lanxi smiled: "I heard from the guards that your sister is very hardworking and has a talent for martial arts!"

When talking about her family, Liu Yanhui felt a little more relaxed.

"I guess he was frightened along the way and wanted to learn some ways to protect himself!"

Shen Lanxi nodded in affirmation.

"She has such comprehension, which is worthy of my opening of the female guard. Let her practice well. Among my subordinates, only the capable ones will be given the position!"

When Liu Yan heard what she wanted to say, she relaxed a lot.

"Thank you, my lord. If you hadn't given me a chance, my sister might have been trapped in the backyard. I'm here on behalf of the girls of the garrison to thank you, my lord!" Liu Yan saluted respectfully.

Shen Lanxi: "I think you all understand my intention. I am a woman, so I never look down on women. If women are given the same growth conditions as men and are nurtured by their families, women may not be worse than men!"

This can be confirmed from Shen Lanxi's experience, and Liu Yanhui now also agrees with this point.

Shen Lanxi changed the subject and said, "I have something to ask you to do. If you don't do it well, you might lose your life."

Liu Yan's eyes gradually became more cautious: "I will do anything for my master, even if it means going through fire and water!"

Shen Lanxi handed him a piece of paper and said, "No hurry, I'll give you three days to think about it!"

The paper was folded. Liu Yanhui wanted to open it and read it, but was stopped by Shen Lanxi.

"Go back and watch again!"

"Yes!"

Liu Yanhui quickly returned to the room, opened the paper, and after reading the contents clearly, her eyes widened in shock!

Wang Songbai came back with disheveled hair and a disheveled appearance. After coming back, the first thing he went to see Shen Lanxi.

"My Lord, I heard that Ma Feng is going to lead his men to attack Yongzhou and they will set off in the next few days!"

Feng Wu handed a piece of paper to Shen Lanxi, on which was written every place Wang Songbai had visited and every person he had met after he left.

After reading it, she threw the paper into the teapot.

"Is the news accurate?"

Wang Songbai nodded hurriedly: "That's right, I bribed a soldier with three taels of silver. The soldier told me the time of departure and how many people to take with him."

Shen Lanxi smiled and said, "Master Wang, you have done a great job!"

Wang Songbai raised the corner of his mouth, but he was not happy for long, as he was still worried about something.

"My Lord, I want to use my military merits to exchange for you saving my sister's family, is that ok?"

Shen Lanxi: "Okay."

Wang Songbai couldn't believe what he heard. Would he agree so easily?

"I'll have someone keep an eye on your sister's family. Now there's something more important that I need to entrust to you."

Wang Songbai felt a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and said, "My lord, please give me your orders!"

Shen Lanxi: "After Ma Feng leads his team away, I want you to go and persuade these counties to surrender." She unfolded the map and drew a circle around Baihe County.

"I want all the places under the jurisdiction of Ma Feng's subordinates!"

Wang Songbai: “…”

When Wei Dongzhu and Liu Yanhui heard the news, they were not surprised at all. They even felt like they had finally waited for something.

She is finally going to take action against Ma Feng!

Taking into account the time it takes Wang Songbai to go back and forth, Ma Feng should set off tomorrow.

The next day, Wang Songbai set out with fifty soldiers, and Liu Yanhui also set out with him.

The difference is that Wang Songbai set out in a swagger and with drums and gongs, while Liu Yanhui acted in secret.

The soldiers have been feeling nervous lately, and their daily drills have been changed into battles, which are still supervised by Wei Dongzhu himself.

Not only do they have to fight, but the female guards have to fight against the male guards. It has to be a real fight, and no one can hold back. Whoever holds back will be beaten with a military stick!

While the daily rigorous training was going on, spring ploughing began.

Shen Lanxi pushed all the official documents to Cheng Zheng and others to deal with. She went out to inspect the farmland at dawn and did not return to the garrison until dark.

Soon, the first batch of counties that were recruited to surrender came to surrender. After that, every few days, people from the county government and the garrison would come to surrender.

Shen Lanxi handed all these people over to Chang Daoyan to receive, and she only gave two orders.

Send soldiers to garrison in the county government that has surrendered, and then start recruiting soldiers in that county government, both men and women.

Because the salary for men and women was the same, the number of women joining the army exceeded that of men.

After recruiting more than a thousand soldiers, Shen Lanxi set his sights on Suiyuan Prefecture.

"We are the army of justice, following the right path in the world. Today I am sending troops to fight against the rebels. Soldiers, your chance to make achievements and become a noble or a prime minister has come!"

"Come forward and listen!"

"Hu Zhu is the left vanguard, Xiao Fang is the right vanguard. Shen Yuanjing and Shen Yuanxu follow Hu Zhu as first-class lieutenants and follow Hu's vanguard, Shen Yuankun and Yuan Jun follow Xiao's vanguard, Shi Da is the central vanguard, leading..."

Shen Lanxi personally led the female guards, with the flags clearly visible: "Fight the rebels and take over Suiyuan!"

A team of 2,500 soldiers set out towards Suiyuan in a mighty manner!

Ma Feng, who had already arrived at the border of Yongzhou, joined the three armies of the King of Eastern Liao in a majestic manner.

When he imagined being granted a title of nobility and becoming a prime minister in the future, he never imagined that his hometown would be raided!

There were less than two hundred soldiers left behind in Suiyuan Prefecture, and they successfully captured Suiyuan Prefecture without encountering any resistance!

Shen Lanxi kicked Ma Feng's flag and broke it. She gave a cold order: "Search the homes of Ma Feng and his subordinates, lock up all their family members, and confiscate their property. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed!"

"Yes!"

"Bring Liang Kuan here!"

"Yes!"

Liang Kuan was Wang Songbai's brother-in-law. He had been under house arrest in the Suiyuan government office until Ma Feng left, when he was allowed to move freely.

After a while, Liang Kuan was brought in.

Shen Lanxi looked at him sharply: "Have you joined Ma Feng?"

Liang Kuan was so frightened that his face turned pale and he knelt on the ground without saying a word.

Shen Lanxi said earnestly: "I know you are all coerced by Ma Feng. From now on, you don't have to be coerced by him anymore. You can manage Suiyuan Prefecture the same way you managed it before!"

Liang Kuan didn't believe it. Ma Feng was a powerful general under the King of Dong Liao. How could he fall so easily? What if he attacked back in the future?

He didn't believe at all what this man called the Army of Justice!

Shen Lanxi knew that he didn't believe it.

"I am a member of the Shen family, a member of the Shen family exiled to Dongchuan!"

Liang Kuan's mind buzzed.
