Chapter 120 -120: Bring the Stick, Military March!
Xiang Ying heard and just glanced at him with her dark phoenix eyes.
“Understood,” she continued to command Skinny Monkey calmly, “Please send Third Miss Chu back to where she stays, and have those living there look after her for a while.”
Supervisor Ke did not expect Xiang Ying to remain so composed.
“Xiang Ying, can’t you hear what I’m saying? The Great General wants to punish you!”
Xiang Ying already felt somewhat dizzy, and upon hearing this, she said irritably, “I heard, both my ears heard it, and I’m on my way to see him now.”
She strode forward, while Supervisor Ke watched her back, his eyes wide open.
“It’s not me who provoked you, why are you angry with me?” He was just kindly reminding her!
Xiang Ying went to Jie Chen’s tent, and as expected, the Great General was there.
At that moment, several unfamiliar men were standing in the tent, apparently new Military Supervisors and team leaders by their attire.
Their gazes simultaneously fell on Xiang Ying.
From the moment she entered the tent, their eyes, whether curious, amused, or filled with indifference, did not stray from her.
Yet, Xiang Ying did not glance sideways and walked straight to the table.
“Great General, what are you planning to punish me for?”
Standing by, Jie Chen spoke sternly: “Xiang Ying, show no disrespect.”
The Great General slammed the table, his tone severe: “Do you still remember you are an exiled criminal? Jie Chen indulges you, and you truly forget your own status?”
“Before nightfall, you must return; that’s the rule! Who permitted you to stay out?”
Xiang Ying replied calmly, raising her phoenix eyes to look at him, her pupils reflecting the tent’s blazing candlelight.
“Those who returned early must have already mentioned, I was saving someone, hence the delay.”
“The person you saved is also a female prisoner, do you think that constitutes a merit?”
“To save a life is indeed meritorious, what else? Should I have let her die and that would have been right?”
The Great General did not expect her to retort and abruptly stood up.
His eyes wide with fury, he pointed a thick finger at Xiang Ying: “Try talking back to me again!”
Xiang Ying lifted her petite, rounded chin, taking two steps forward: “What, Great General, even listening to my explanation is an issue? It seems you must beat me no matter what.”
“You, you…” The Great General looked towards Jie Chen, who swept him with a cold glance.
That look seemed somewhat like a warning.
Yet, the Great General had no intention of backing down.
In this tent, with new Military Supervisors and team leaders present, if he did not establish his authority, wouldn’t that lead to chaos?
If word spread, it would be a dereliction of duty on his part as the Great General!
At this moment, Skinny Monkey and Acid Scholar hurriedly entered.
They knew they had made mistakes, violated the rules, and respectfully apologized: “Please, General, punish us.”
The Great General knew Xiang Ying was a troublemaker and not afraid of being beaten; she might even have kicked his table over in frustration.
The arrival of Skinny Monkey and Acid Scholar was timely.
“Bring the sticks, enforce the military law!”
Holding a stick in hand, the Great General rebuked the two: “Kneel down.”
Both kneeled immediately.
The Great General glanced at Xiang Ying: “As team leaders, failing to stop her, and instead letting her break the rules, is a dereliction of duty.”
“Today, you two will receive fifty lashes each, and afterwards, the soldiers under your command will also be punished according to this standard.”
Neither Skinny Monkey nor Acid Scholar flinched but only bowed their heads: “Yes!”
Jie Chen stepped forward, positioning himself in front of the two.
“I am their Military Supervisor, and since they are at fault, I should also be punished.”
After saying this, he efficiently removed his belt, took off his robe, which fell at his waist, revealing an upper body with exceptionally smooth and chiseled muscle lines.
His lean waist was hidden beneath the black waistband of his pants.
Jie Chen stood with his back to Xiang Ying, yet she couldn’t help but steal a few glances.
The Great General gripped his stick tightly: “I indeed have to punish you.”
Just as he lifted the stick, Xiang Ying stepped forward and grasped it.
“I am late, it is my fault, but if I have any merits, can they offset my mistakes and let them go?”
Her principle was not to let anyone be punished for her actions.
The Great General stared at her with fierce eyes: “What merits do you have? If you can name even one, I’ll immediately forgive them, and you won’t be punished either.”
At the same time.

Outside the tent, Tao Xue paced back and forth anxiously.
Qi Fengyi sat on a rock, holding a wooden sword he had whittled himself.
Seeing Tao Xue’s forehead covered in cold sweat from anxiety, Qi Fengyi said expressionlessly: “Don’t worry, if they dare to touch the elder princess, I’ll go in and kill them.”
Also, let them taste the Qi Family’s swordsmanship, making up for her regret of not having been able to go to the battlefield.
Tao Xue thought this method was feasible, although far-fetched, rebelling was the only way out.
But looking at the wooden sword held by Qi Fengyi, she wanted to laugh and cry: “They have real swords and guns, with just a wooden sword, how can we win?”
“We have us too!” Three little heads popped out one after another from behind the stones.
Xiang Yuanshuo rubbed his hands excitedly: “I’ve been eager to scold them…”
He had only gotten halfway through his sentence when Qi Fengyi covered his little mouth.
Qi Fengyi coldly said: “The elder princess said, don’t speak ill at will.”
Xiang Yuanlang stood with his arms crossed, observing them with a sober and pitch-black gaze.
“We are weak against the strong, there’s little chance of winning, so we need to be sneaky, tonight I’ll set fire and burn them to death.”
His tone was too calm, not at all like a three-and-a-half-year-old child.
Xiang Xiuxiu clapped her little hands beside him: “Brother is really amazing.”
At this time, Xiang Qianqian walked nearby.
Seeing so many people around Jie Chen’s tent, she knew they were waiting for Xiang Ying.
Thinking of the trouble Xiang Ying had caused, Xiang Qianqian couldn’t help but snicker.
She approached and persuaded: “You don’t need to wait here anymore, I just asked Supervisor Ke; today, the Great General is very angry.”
“He just came with the new Military Supervisor and the team leader, it’s definite he wants to assert his authority, even if elder sister could save Third Miss Chu, she cannot escape punishment.”
Tao Xue looked at her, clenching her fists in anger: “Fifth Princess, if you can’t speak kindly, better not speak at all. Our elder princess was late because she was saving someone, it wasn’t intentional.”
Xiang Qianqian sneered: “I kindly advise you, but since you won’t listen, there’s nothing I can do.”
If later Xiang Ying is beaten till her skin breaks and flesh bursts, don’t blame her for not warning them.
The thought of Xiang Ying possibly being carried out covered in wounds made Xiang Qianqian not want to leave.
She couldn’t wait to see Xiang Ying’s face, usually so full of pride, tear-streaked.
Even she herself has been living in shambles these days, why should Xiang Ying always be thriving and dazzling?
She really wanted to see her in misfortune, to see if she could still be so arrogant!
Xiang Qianqian lingered nearby, unwilling to leave.
Xiang Yuanshuo saw her, his little mouth fiercely said: “Villain, wait to see you trip and crack your head!”
After saying that, he wiped away the blood flowing from his nose with one sweep of his little hand.
At this time, inside the tent, Xiang Ying had already stated her reason for meritorious deeds.
“Third Miss Chu was accidentally injured by a tree branch while trying to escape, Skinny Captain and others assisted me in bringing her back.”
“As far as I know, it’s a violation of the rules for exiled criminals to escape, so by bringing her back, can it be considered compensating for the wrongdoing?”
The Great General was stunned.
In his thirty years of battle, this was the first time he had encountered a woman so good at sophistry.
No, not just sophistry—it was cunning!
