My Antique Mirror Is A Portal To Another World-Chapter 595: Midnight Delivery

Noticing the slight change in Wu Ruizhan’s expression, Zhan Qi thought for a second, then probingly asked, "General Wu, why do you ask about this?"

Wu Ruizhan shook his head. "This general simply thinks it’s inappropriate for Miss Bai to keep following the Great General, even though she is his fiancée."

When Zhan Qi heard this, he understood what Wu Ruizhan was implying. After weighing the pros and cons, he decided to give him a hint.

Making up his mind, Zhan Qi pulled Wu Ruizhan to the side where nobody was around. Lowering his voice, he said, "General Wu, this general will tell you a secret. However, you must not let anyone else know."

Raising his brows slightly, Wu Ruizhan asked, "General Zhan, what kind of secret are you about to tell this general?"

Zhan Qi hesitated for a few more seconds before saying, "General Wu, our army supplies are all provided by Miss Bai. Without her, we would have been dead long ago. You and the newly joined brothers would also starve to death."

Hearing this, Wu Ruizhan stared thoughtfully at Zhan Qi.

’Miss Bai is the one who provides the army supplies? Isn’t the one providing the supplies—’

The moment his thoughts reached this point, realization flashed in his eyes.

Seeing that he finally understood the truth, Zhan Qi nodded and added, "That’s right. This is a secret."

"We can’t let anyone with impure intentions learn about this truth. This general lets you know because this general trusts General Wu’s character and loyalty toward the Great General."

Wu Ruizhan stared at Zhan Qi’s clear eyes and couldn’t help but think, ’We have only known each other for a few days, and General Zhan already trusts me to this degree. This kind of sincerity and trust is not something that the Jin Emperor would give to my Wu Clan, even after our loyal service over generations.’

’My decision to follow the Great General is the best decision I have ever made in my life. Not only do I gain a Master who deserves my loyalty, I even gain a comrade-in-arms to whom I can entrust my back.’

Filled with gratitude for Zhan Qi’s sincerity and trust, Wu Ruizhan raised three fingers and made a vow.

"This general will take this secret to my grave. This general won’t let even my family know about this secret. If this general ever tells other people about this secret, this general will die without a burial place and a complete corpse."

Satisfied with his sincere vow, Zhan Qi said, "Great! Now, let’s hurry up and finish the preparations so we can rest early. Tomorrow will be a long journey for you and the brothers."

"Alright."

While the two of them sped up their work, Feng Xiyan brought Bai Hanyun to his bedroom. After closing the door, he asked, "Yun’er, when did you return?"

"Just now," Bai Hanyun replied, then asked, "Should we go to Xiqiang City now?"

Feng Xiyan shook his head and explained, "It’s still too early. Let’s wait until midnight before we go to Xiqiang City."

Not understanding why Feng Xiyan wanted to wait, Bai Hanyun tilted her head slightly and asked in confusion, "Why? Do you have other things to do now?"

Feng Xiyan pulled her to sit on a wooden stool, then explained, "Yun’er, since we are going to use the Yang Mirror’s teleportation skill to transport the war prisoners, we must do it secretly, just in case there are spies in Xiqiang City."

"Moreover, we also need to plan carefully so Jin Cen and the other war prisoners won’t find out that we are transporting them. If this becomes known to our enemies, then not only would our plan fail, but you would also be put in danger."

Shaking his head, Feng Xiyan stared into Bai Hanyun’s eyes and solemnly said, "I won’t let you face danger for me or anyone else."

Staring at his determined eyes, Bai Hanyun smiled, then reached out to cup Feng Xiyan’s face with her hands.

Pulling him closer, she touched her forehead to his and whispered, "Feng Xiyan, I’m really lucky to be able to meet you in this life."

Surprised and delighted by her sudden intimacy, Feng Xiyan’s expression softened.

He smiled gently and whispered, "Heaven is pitying me, so it sends you to my side. It’s my luck that you are willing to look at me."

After staring at each other for a while, Bai Hanyun chuckled softly, then moved closer to Feng Xiyan. Without giving him time to react, she kissed his lips lightly before letting him go.

Feeling the soft touch of her lips, Feng Xiyan froze in his seat.

Standing up from her seat, Bai Hanyun walked to the bed. Lying down, she tiredly said, "There is still time before midnight, so I’m going to take a nap. Feng Xiyan, remember to wake me up when it’s time to leave."

Closing her eyes, Bai Hanyun slowly drifted into a dreamless sleep, leaving Feng Xiyan sitting on the stool, staring at her, too stunned to react.

A few seconds later, Feng Xiyan slowly raised his hand and touched his lips. As he stared at Bai Hanyun’s sleeping face, the corner of his lips slowly curved up, and the tips of his ears turned so red that they almost bled.

As the night deepened and the time passed slowly, the war preparations were finally completed. Finishing their tasks, the soldiers returned to the dormitory and went to rest one after another.

While most of the people in the Yurong Border Pass Garrison were resting, in the imperial capital of the Yu Empire, a masked man in black clothes sneaked into the Heaven Prison without alerting the patrolling guards.

As the masked man avoided the prison guards, he slowly made his way to the lowest floor of Heaven Prison.

Ten minutes later, he stopped in front of one of the prison cells.

Inside the cell, Wen Kang heard a sound and opened his eyes.
