Chapter 116 -116 Jie Chen, I Applaud for You
Xiang Ying had never read the original text, but she still remembered her friend’s description of this plot.
In the snow mountains of Mang State, there is something unknown or perhaps a special magnetic field that causes people to lose their way, commonly referred to as the ghost hitting the wall.
Therefore, the snow mountains of Mang State are also known as Bogui Mountain.
In the original book, local people are afraid to cross Bogui Mountain.
Her friend mentioned that in the book, there were hunters who went into the mountains to find food; four went, but only one returned insane.
The mad hunter kept shouting that there were demons in the mountain, undying by arrows, unscathed by blades, laughing like a baby.
Even if Xiang Ying tried to imagine, she couldn’t guess what kind of creature it was.
It’s probably a creature growing deep in the mountains, with tough fur.
Thinking up to this point, Xiang Ying hesitated.
“Mr. Lin, if I go persuade Jie Jianjun to take another route instead of Bogui Mountain, could you suggest an alternative path?”
Mr. Lin shook his head, glanced at the soldiers gathered together.
He lowered his voice, “Elder Princess, I advise you not to meddle. Bogui Mountain is vast, it’s definitely unavoidable.”
Mr. Lin drew the continuous mountains with a branch on the ground.
The mountain range stretched endlessly, indeed hard to bypass.
Xiang Li also spoke solemnly, “Now that we are exiled criminals, if we cannot avoid this mountain, we must think of our own survival.”
“Ayin, do not go remind the Military Supervisor, it might only lead to bigger conflicts.”
Xiang Ying contemplated.
The supplies in her space should suffice to get through the snow mountain.
The only issue is, what exactly is that unknown creature?
It’s a shame she hadn’t seen the original book herself, only heard a few things from her friend, otherwise, she would know how to deal with it now.
Every fear stems from insufficient firepower.
Xiang Ying once again missed her full arsenal.
However, she thought of a suspicious detail.
If her friend was reading a novel, there should be a protagonist.
Yet, Xiang Ying had not heard her mention any protagonist from the start to the end.
Instead, the various plots described in the book made Xiang Ying feel as if it was a historical record or a disaster narrative novel.
After all, a scarce year is the main theme, and the ultimate winner is Nanyue.
Xiang Ying became even more determined to go to Nanyue.
She suggested to Xiang Li, “Even if we don’t change paths, I still have to discuss this matter with Jie Chen.”
“After all, we are all made of flesh and blood, who wouldn’t be afraid of the cold? Remind him to prepare in advance, it will also make things easier for us.”
As Xiang Li was about to say something, Xiang Ying had already swiftly gotten up and left.
Mr. Lin smiled affectionately, watching the helpless sighing Xiang Li: “The Elder Princess is doing extremely well now, decisive and courageous. I feel as if I see the hope of Xizhou.”
Xiang Li felt an unknown worry instead.
“Ayin is outstanding, but that might not be a good thing.”
“Your Highness, you still haven’t understood,” Mr. Lin said meaningfully, “It is because the Elder Princess is outstanding that she makes our journey easier.”
Xiang Ying had already reached the entrance of Jie Chen’s tent.
The two soldiers standing outside reminded, “Wait here, the Military Supervisor is in a meeting.”
Just as they finished speaking, Supervisor Ke’s loud voice came from inside the tent.
“I’m telling you not to indulge her too much, she just said she wants to take the women to Yuelao Temple for fun, do you really think she’s out here for a leisurely trip? How could you agree to that?”
Xiang Ying raised an eyebrow.
Oh, Supervisor Ke is complaining about her again.
The two soldiers at the door didn’t dare raise their heads, feeling embarrassed for Supervisor Ke.
Xiang Ying didn’t hear what Jie Chen said, but Supervisor Ke seemed even more irritable.
“What do you mean by appeasing the inner fears of exiled criminals, they are just a bunch of prisoners, and now you start caring about their psychological feelings?”
“Jie Chen, I just ask you one thing, do you just listen to whatever Xiang Ying says?”
Hearing this, Xiang Ying could no longer hold back.
She drew back the curtain and poked her head in to interject: “Supervisor Ke, you seem to have a deep misunderstanding of me.”
“How could I have the ability to make Jie Jianjun obey orders? His decision must have his own reasons.”
Inside the tent, Jie Chen sat behind a desk, his dark robe seeming to deepen the shadows between his brows.
Supervisor Ke, his left hand bandaged, stood beside the table and jumped when he heard Xiang Ying’s voice.
He turned around and frowned: “How come you are eavesdropping?”
Xiang Ying chuckled, her red lips curving: “You were so loud that even someone three miles away could hear you; it would be hard not to listen.”
Supervisor Ke coughed unnaturally.
Was he speaking that loudly? He hadn’t noticed.
Jie Chen pursed his lips, his tone cold: “Is there something you need from me?”
Xiang Ying naturally walked in.
“Heard we are crossing Mang State, I came to remind you, Bogui Mountain in Mang State is snowy all seasons and very cold, need to bring clothes.”
“I have brought them,” Jie Chen was terse with his words.
Xiang Ying raised her eyebrows: “Have you prepared for the many Exiled Criminals as well?”
Supervisor Ke rolled his eyes instinctively and looked directly at Jie Chen.
“Listen to this, listen to this! And you say she isn’t presumptuous. What status do criminals have, how dare they ask us for things to keep warm?”
Xiang Ying’s dark Phoenix Eyes turned towards him: “Did the Nanyue Emperor order you to escort us back?”
“Yes.”
“If we all freeze to death on the way, what will you have to show for it?”
That single sentence blocked all of Supervisor Ke’s rebuttals.
He paused, wanting to speak, then stopped, repeatedly searching for the right words to argue against Xiang Ying.
In the end, he could only throw up his hands, deflated: “That’s still no reason for your unreasonable demands.”
At this moment, Jie Chen remained cool: “The supplies will be prepared in Luzhou City, you need not worry. Take care of yourself.”
This was what Xiang Ying was waiting for.
“I will definitely take good care of myself and the children, I’m afraid you’ll slow us down. It would be troublesome if everyone gets frostbite on Snow Mountain and needs me to save them.”
“Jie Chen, she’s so arrogant, aren’t you going to manage that?” Supervisor Ke widened his eyes.
Xiang Ying retorted: “Supervisor Ke, this isn’t called arrogance, this is called confidence. When you are so frozen that you can’t walk, I will surely save you.”
“But keep your words fewer, I hold grudges, be careful.”
Supervisor Ke pointed at her: “You, you, you…”
He couldn’t argue with her, so could only turn his pleading eyes towards Jie Chen.
Jie Chen seemed accustomed to it as he lowered his head; from Xiang Ying’s angle, all she could see were his saber-like eyebrows.
“She has always been like this, would speaking change anything?”
“No,” Xiang Ying was honest.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёnovelkiss.com.
Jie Chen smirked, his expression seemingly indifferent, yet there was an underlying tone of indulgence.
Supervisor Ke felt like they were both ganging up on him, nearly driving him mad.
“Without rules, there is no square. Soldiers and prisoners lack boundaries; troubles are bound to arise sooner or later!”
After saying that, he stormed off, lifting the curtain angrily.
Xiang Ying also tactfully said: “I have nothing else, I’ll leave too.”
Jie Chen didn’t respond; he listened to the sound of Xiang Ying’s footsteps gradually approaching the doorway.
Suddenly, she stopped: “Oh right.”
A faint light seemed to flicker in the thinness of Jie Chen’s eyes.
He suppressed the corners of his lips which quirked up inexplicably, and raised his head: “What now?”
Xiang Ying sincerely said: “On behalf of those outside, thank you. These people have been suppressed for a long time, and are very happy about the trip to Yuelao Temple.”
“I applaud your open-mindedness.” She clapped twice, then decisively walked away.
Jie Chen was momentarily stunned and only slightly knitted his eyebrows when Xiang Ying had gone far.
Is that all the thanks?
