A child's perception of the surrounding aura was the most acute. Changsheng's watery eyes were wide open, not understanding what was happening.
Jiang Pengji stroked Changsheng's fluffy hair and said softly, "Huaiyu, don't be so nervous. Don't scare Changsheng."
Feng Jin secretly heaved a sigh of relief, but he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How could he not be worried?
When Changsheng was just born, she coincidentally encountered the earthquake in Dongqing. Now that she had just met the lord, an unknown army of 20,000 men and horses arrived outside the city. Although Xiangyang District was not considered to be in a bad state now and all kinds of defensive equipment were prepared, a disaster of war was never a good thing.
He was really afraid that his daughter would be misunderstood. How could he not be worried?
"It might not be a bad thing. Let's go and take a look first."
She teased Changsheng to make sure that she did not scare the little girl, then she returned Changsheng to Feng Jin.
Jiang Pengji casually pulled the cloak that was placed at the side, unfolded it, and neatly put it on.
"Let's go."
Feng Jin pursed his lips and stood on the spot. His gaze was complicated.
Qiguan Rang was slightly slower. He whispered to him, "My lord is not a reckless and brainless person."
"I know. After all, we've known each other for many years. Lanting is trustworthy."
Feng Jin also lowered his voice and used his wide sleeves to cover Changsheng.
To be honest, when Meng Hun came over to report the news, he really felt that he was about to stop breathing. He was afraid that Jiang Pengji could not suppress her emotions and Changsheng in her arms would be the one to suffer. Feng Jin did not dare to imagine …
Fortunately, she was better than he imagined. She was more restrained, more courageous, and more broad-minded.
At that moment, Feng Jin almost had the urge to cry.
He kissed the innocent Changsheng and felt a sense of relief after escaping a disaster.
Being kissed by her own father, Changsheng giggled. She kicked her feet, stretched her neck, and kissed his cheek.
Qiguan Rang and Feng Jin left the government office one after another. Jiang Pengji's figure was already nowhere to be seen.
Time was tight. She had already galloped out of the city on her horse.
The siren sounded in Xiangyang district. The people packed up their stalls and hid in their houses. The streets were already empty.
Feng Jin and Qiguan Rang took a while to climb the city gate.
Jiang Pengji stood behind the wall with a solemn expression. Xu Ke was not much earlier than them and was panting.
"Who are those people? Could it be the Tsing Yi Army again? "Xu Ke panted, his face sweating profusely.
The messenger half-knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "According to the scouts at the front, the enemy has about two thousand cavalry archers and five thousand elite infantrymen. Moreover, the enemy is fully armored and well-equipped. As for the others, because they were too far away, we still don't know the specific situation. "
Jiang Pengji placed one hand on her waist and the other on her eyebrows. She stared at him for a long time without making a sound.
Xu Ke asked, "Master, should we send someone to investigate again?"
Jiang Pengji clicked her tongue softly. She turned her head and realized that the three strategists had arrived, as well as a burden.
Feng Jin was worried about leaving the child in the government office. He covered Changsheng with two wide sleeves to prevent her from being exposed to the wind.
It wasn't just the three of them. The viewers in the live broadcast room were also on high alert. They felt like they were going to fight again today.
Jintian Cangwugeng: "How long has it been peaceful? Those bastards from the Tsing Yi Army are looking for trouble again?
I must wipe out the debt: "Oh my god, I'm a little afraid of blood. People die in war. Should I quit the live broadcast room first?"
Xianggu Lamemeng: "I had nightmares for a few days when I watched the streamer attack Xiangyang district and kill General Jiu of the Tsing Yi Army."
Don't Bully Her: "A war is about to break out. Children, retreat quickly!"
Jiang Pengji looked at them and raised her eyebrows … What were they talking about?
"Why are all of you here? And Huaiyu, the wind is strong on the city wall. Aren't you afraid that Changsheng will catch a cold? "
Her father was so broad-minded. It was definitely the credit of his virtuous wife, Jingxian, that Changsheng could be raised to be so fair and plump.
"Master … this …"
Feng Jin understood Jiang Pengji. Her expression didn't have the sternness before the war at all. Instead, she looked relaxed, which was strange.
"I don't know where the troops are from, but they shouldn't be coming for us. The alarm is temporarily canceled."
Jiang Pengji had fought in wars for many years in her previous life. Her battle experience was richer than the few beside her. Her mental brain domain had basically recovered. She was extremely sensitive to "Qi". Naturally, she could see that there was no "murderous aura" on the troops' horses. If they had come to attack Xiangyang district, their murderous aura would have soared to the sky.
"You're still too young." She clicked her tongue. "Send someone down to ask him why he's here."
Laosiji Lianmeng: "As expected, I should have trusted the streamer." Her expression was normal, so she was definitely fine.
Jintian Fanfa Feila: "I was scared to death. I felt like my heart was in my throat."
Even though the host was in another dimension, they didn't like killing. It was best to avoid a confrontation.
"When two soldiers fight, they don't kill the envoys. Just ask them why they're here. They won't kill anyone. "
Jiang Pengji spoke calmly. Her expression was calm. Her dark eyes were filled with inspiring absolute confidence.
"Although, I think this is nonsense … War is war. Death is death. What's the use of so many superficial etiquettes …" Jiang Pengji clicked her tongue. She despised the so-called rules of the battlefield. In her world, if one was in a bad mood, they would start a war. Who would inform the enemy before a sneak attack?
The three of them didn't know whether to laugh or cry. At that moment, Changsheng, who had been quiet all along, giggled. Feng Jin's face darkened.
The wind on the city wall was too strong. It blew up Feng Jin's sleeves and tickled her.
Jiang Pengji simply took off her cloak and folded it to cover Feng Jin's shoulders. It covered Changsheng, who was in his arms.
"Thank you, my lord."
Jiang Pengji glanced at him. "You talk too much nonsense."
The wait was long. After a long time, the person she sent out returned. At the same time, he brought along a man who was about 40 years old. His sideburns were a little gray. He looked clean and upright. His facial features were more defined than the men from the Central Plains.
His eyes were not pure black. Instead, they were a light brown.
The man stopped ten steps away. He looked Jiang Pengji up and down. Tears were brewing in his eyes.
As if he had confirmed something, the man folded his sleeves and bowed.
"Your servant, Gu Xin, pays his respects to the young master."
At that moment, not only were Feng Jin and the others dumbfounded, but the audience in the streaming room was speechless. Even Jiang Pengji was stunned.
What was going on?
Jiang Pengji said, "Old sir, let's talk things out. What are you doing?"
Although she said that, she had some guesses in her heart.
The man called himself "Gu Xin" and called her "young master" … Could he be the old man who used to serve her mother?
When she thought of the large army of nearly 20,000 people outside the city, her heart skipped a beat. Intense joy surged in her heart.
