Chapter 121 -121: It’s a Living Six-Pack
The Great General frowned, “This is simply twisting words to win an argument. Don’t go too far. It’s their duty to bring the prisoners back. How can they ask for credit?”
Xiang Ying blinked, “But indeed, it was us who brought her back, wasn’t it?”
The Great General stared at Xiang Ying with a stern face, then sat back down in his chair.
“You’re really good at arguing black is white. Since you think this is compensating for merits with faults, their faults I can forgive, but your punishment won’t be reduced!”
Xiang Ying took a half step forward, “Fine, how will you punish me?”
The Great General was contemplating just when Xiang Ying felt an even stronger sense of dizziness.
She forced herself to stay clear-headed and slightly shook her head.
The Great General’s voice came through, “Then I’ll punish you by making you wash the clothes of all the soldiers.”
For a woman who once was the elder princess, this should be quite a severe punishment, right?
After all, Xiang Ying isn’t afraid of being beaten or punished; to control her is only possible by wearing down her pride.
However, Xiang Ying was now feeling extremely unwell.
The Great General’s words, reaching her ears, sounded as if they were muffled by a mass of water, utterly indistinct!
She pressed her temples, finding that the figures before her eyes were starting to duplicate.
Something’s not right, what’s happening to her?
The Great General thought Xiang Ying was scared silent when she did not speak.
“Why so silent now? Weren’t you tough-talking just a moment ago?”
Yet, Jie Chen had noticed the pallor of Xiang Ying’s complexion, deadly pale.
He slightly furrowed his eyebrows, “Are you feeling unwell?”
Before Xiang Ying could answer, her slender form collapsed like a fallen butterfly, without any warning.
Jie Chen, prepared, immediately caught her in his arms.
The Great General jumped up from his chair in fright, and Skinny Monkey and Acid Scholar were also shocked.
“What happened to her?”
“Did the Great General anger her into fainting?”
Jie Chen raised his cold eyes to stare at the Great General, “Do you really need to punish her right now?”
With that said, he lifted Xiang Ying horizontally and quickly carried her out.
The Great General glanced at the team leader and the Military Supervisor around him.
That brat Jie Chen, he couldn’t hold back, and reprimanded him in front of so many people!
The Great General slammed his hand down on the table, bellowing, “Lawlessness! What are you all standing around for, dismiss!”
The crowd dispersed with different expressions.
The rumored Princess of Xizhou was indeed extraordinary; she just fainted and already caused a rift between Jie Jianjun and the Great General.
Realizing she had fainted, Tao Xue and the three little ones were all frantic, chasing after Jie Chen.
Xiang Qianqian hid not far away, seeing Xiang Ying being carried out, her face instantly revealed a schadenfreude expression.
She walked along, snickering to herself.
Xiang Ying, oh Xiang Ying, even you have days like this, to be beaten until you faint, that must have been harsh!
All of a sudden, she stumbled, falling hard to the ground.
Sharp stones instantly cut open her forehead, and blood gushed out.
Xiang Qianqian screamed a ghostly, piercing wail.
She got up and rushed to the soldier, “Where’s the Military Doctor? I’ve injured my head!”
The soldier shrugged off her hand, “What’s all the noise for? The Great General has already arranged for all the doctors to treat the prisoner Xiang Ying.”
Xiang Qianqian was dumbfounded, “Then what about me?”
“You?” The soldier said disdainfully, “Wait your turn!”
Xiang Qianqian wept incessantly; she couldn’t afford to be disfigured!
Three Military Doctors took turns checking.
The Great General, unbeknownst when, had quietly crept to the outside of the tent, ears perked up listening.
The tent was crowded with people who cared for Xiang Ying; there really was no place to stand.
The military doctor withdrew his hand from taking the pulse: “It’s from hunger, a deficiency in vital energy. Rest well for two days and there should be no problem.”
Skinny Monkey wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
“So it’s hunger… That makes sense, Sister-in-law was treating that female prisoner’s wounds, she was kneeling on the ground for a full two hours.”
Three little ones stood guard by Xiang Ying’s side, with Xiang Xiuxiu’s tears plop plop falling.
Tao Xue was crying even harder, gasping for breath.
“Every time there’s something to eat, the elder princess always lets us eat first. She herself would sneak away, as if afraid we haven’t had enough to eat.”
If Xiang Ying were awake, hearing Tao Xue’s words, she would probably have laughed out loud.
Tao Xue could never have imagined what kind of delicious feast Xiang Ying enjoyed every time she snuck away.
Jie Chen pursed his lips, his cold eyes pitch-black: “Military Doctor, go and prescribe the medicine. Everyone else out, don’t disturb her rest.”
However, no one was willing to leave.
Seventh Princess sobbed: “I must see big sister wake up with my own eyes.”
The Great General eavesdropped for a moment, and when the Military Doctor lifted the curtain, he quickly pretended as if he had just arrived, clenching his fist and coughing lightly.
“How is Xiang Ying?”
“Fortunately, it’s not serious.”
The Great General heaved a sigh of relief.
Luckily it was nothing serious, otherwise, wouldn’t that His Highness have fought him to the death?
He walked away with his hands behind his back.
Xiang Ying felt as if she had been asleep, and when she opened her eyes, her vision was blurry. She saw Jie Chen sitting on her right-hand side.
The lights inside the tent were dim yellow as he looked at her with his cool eyes: “Awake?”
Xiang Ying didn’t speak but instead raised her hand slowly stretching towards him.
Jie Chen frowned, unsure of what she was doing. Although he didn’t dodge it, a defensive look appeared in his eyes.
When Xiang Ying’s delicate fingertips touched his cheek, Jie Chen was stunned.
He thought she was just trying to provide some gentle comfort, but to his surprise, Xiang Ying’s hand silently slid down and touched his abdominal muscles.
Jie Chen: !!
His ears turned beet red instantly, and even though his face showed no expression, his eyes were filled with the look of someone on the verge of losing their temper.
Xiang Ying finally spoke, with a slight sigh: “It’s real abs, I must not be dead, this is not an illusion.”
Suddenly.
She heard the movement of three little ones beside her.
Xiang Yuanshuo said: “I told you, she won’t have trouble that easily. Just shout there’s a handsome man, and she’d come back from the road to the afterlife.”
Xiang Yuanlang snorted: “Heh, women.”
Xiang Xiuxiu: “Big brother, you mustn’t say that, it’s inauspicious!”
Xiang Ying stiffly turned her head and realized that her family members were all standing on the left side.
There were even people standing full.
Three children were leaning over the bedside, closest to her, followed by Tao Xue, Qi Fengyi, and Seventh Princess.
Of course, there was also her brother Xiang Li, Lin Lingxiang, and Yu Pin.
Xiang Li had the most complicated expression.
It was as if he had discovered that his own little sister, eighty years old on a sickbed, her last dying words were absurdly about wanting fresh men.
The scariest thing was that Third Miss Chu was also there, leaning on a walking stick.
Her complexion looked like a wandering spirit, no telling when she had woken up.
Perhaps she came to thank Xiang Ying and took the chance to visit, only to see Xiang Ying in this state.
“You… all are here.” Xiang Ying had a very strong mentality, her tone of casual conversation was especially natural, and she honestly withdrew her hand.
Tao Xue blinked through her tears: “Elder Princess, are you still feeling unwell anywhere?”

Xiang Ying indicated: “Much better now, don’t worry.”
Jie Chen coldly spoke up, the cold light in his thin eyes like a knife.
“Since you’re better now, let’s have a talk, everyone else goes out.”
