We succeeded?

At this, all three of them had a shared understanding as these two words floated in their heads. Their inner mood was turbulent, and could not be calmed.

Feng Jins and Qiguan Rangs reactions could be considered composed and mature. They didnt reveal much expression. Xu Ke was so aggravated that he stood up.

Due to his excitement, his voice sounded flustered and trembled somewhat.

Are you certain the head hung on the city gates belong to the Tsing Yi army, bandit?

The imperial guard, their informant, cupped his hand saying, Your servant specially disguised himself as a commoner and went to the west city gate at the Xiangyang district to gather information. I discovered that the city gates are wide open and the men on guard arent from Tsing Yi army, but the Liu district magistrates personal guards. I feared this might be a ploy and tarried on to question the people who went in and out of the city. The head hung, without doubt, belongs to the bandit leader.

After receiving this news, Xu Ke heaved a long sigh of relief. The fatigue from worrying all night overwhelmed him.

His eyes unexpectedly darkened and his ankles uncontrollably took a step backwards. He almost lost his footing.

Luckily, Qiguan Rang was by his side, and he lent his hand and supported him, thus relieving him from the tragedy of having an intimate session with the ground.

Feng Jin spoke to Luoyue who rushed over, Ive to trouble military trainer Luoyue to dismantle the tent and prepare to set off. Langjun just took over Xiangyang district, with only some men under her, I fear that she cannot handle the situation. To prevent the remnants of Tsing Yi army from escaping and calling for reinforcements, I implore military trainer Luo to provide support with more men.

This is my job, Master Huaiyu doesnt have to be so formal, Luoyue said modestly.

Upon knowing that Jiang Pengji victoriously dominated the Xiangyang district, the people who followed became excitable. Many clasped their hands and sincerely thanked all the gods and deities.

They are hopeful that theyll have a place to settle down now, and perhaps even for generations to come since the Xiangyang district has been won.

Jiang Pengji never let the people suffer throughout the journey. However, compared to a nomadic lifestyle, they preferred a peaceful and comfortable environment.

Packing their bags, the people followed the imperial guards to the Xiangyang district where they slowly inched nearer

Feng Jin briefly groomed his outward appearance to make himself look fresher and cleaner. Then he climbed onto the horse carriage where Wei Jingxian did her confinement.

If we must decide who has the best days amongst them all, its most likely Wei Jingxian and her daughter.

Your husband needs to lean and rest a while

Within the horse carriage sat his wife and daughter. Feng Jin was dead tired as he leaned lazily against the carriage.

He bent his knee and lifted one leg, he bent the other and curled it up underneath him. He minimised the space he occupied, his eyelids as heavy as if someone forced water containing lead into them.

Hes still considered alright; he can seek solace and laze here with his wife and close his eyes briefly. Xu Ke and Qiguan Rang have to depend on sole grit to keep awake and ride on.

Without comparison, there isnt hurt.

Under the dedicated service of the maidens, Wei Jingxians confinement passed by rather smoothly, her body is also recovering well.

Shes brimming with energy as she leaned against the carriage, she sat half her body up, Are we about to enter the city?

Before she slept yesterday, she vaguely heard news that Jiang Pengji is going to assault their enemies last night with some men.

If Jiang Pengjis endeavour failed, her husband will surely not have such a calm demeanour, as if a heavy burden has been lifted.

Now that theyve kept the tents and moved forward, Jiang Pengjis victory is the only possibility. She has conquered Xiangyang district!

Wei Jingxian is intelligent and sharp; she didnt purposely listen out for it. But through analysing the fine lines, she inferred what she wanted to know.

Yes. Feng Jin forced his eyes open, and nodded, his breathing became regular.

Wei Jingxian saw his body shift as the horse carriage moved, he surely could not sleep well. Her heart softened, she put Changsheng, who is deeply asleep, down on her cot. Then she held Feng Jin and led him to lie on her lap. Feng Jin felt some movements and opened his eyes in the midst, he saw its his wife then he closed his eyes again. He positioned himself so that hed be more comfortable, and, before long, he was sound asleep.

This horse carriage is customised by the Liu mansion, it has outstanding ability to reduce impact such that even while sleeping within, one will not experience the carriage moving.

As Qiguan Rang rode the horse, he looked left and right but could not seem to see Feng Jin, his heart growing more downcast as he repeatedly fanned himself with his feathered fan.

Sigh someone has a virtuous wife and lovely daughter. Rang also has yes, yet both our treatments are worlds apart.

Feng Jin secretly went to sleep, while he still has to keep his heavy eyelids open with all his might and bear with his exhaustion. The thought of it is such a torment.

Xu Ke turned his head, took a glance at the horse carriage behind him that moved steadily along, he said miserably, Ke also has a lovely wife at home.

After all, isnt he in the same state as Qiguan Rang he isnt single yet hes superior to a single man.

Both men look at each other and sighed, then with tacit understanding they staggered their vision.

In times like this, the couple just had to display their affection for each other. Both men felt theyve been gravely hurt.

Because they took with them 20,000 people from Shangjing, the rate which the entire party proceeded forth is slowed down.

When the sun is shining high above, they could see the Xiangyang district city hidden in the horizon.

Seeing the citys pond, both their hearts had the same type of inner emotions

The uncertainties of life commence now!

Jia

Somewhere else, Jiang Pengji watched the sunrise, the time should be near.

Thus, she asked for a basin of clear water to wash off the blood stains and dirt from her body. Then she changed into a clean set of clothes.

Without a constant bloody aura lingering around her body, surely, whoever sees her will praise her handsome young man.

Lets go outside the city to welcome Xiaoyu and the rest. I estimated the time; they should be here soon.

Meng Hun was in a downcast mood, but after hearing half the sentence, immediately his energy level soared. He determined to straighten his back.

Jiang Pengji was busy working the whole night. Meng Hun whose eye circles are increasingly visible from the late nights said chirpily, When they arrive, the tasks on your hands can be delegated.

Taking about 20 troops with her, they waited outside the citys west for 15 minutes before the silhouette of Qiguan Rang and Xu Ke appeared within their vision.

Both their faces appear fatigued, they probably didnt sleep the entire night.

Seeing this, she smiled briefly, her eyes shone. She couldnt contain her excitement and rode her horse forward.

They are finally here!

Qiguan Rang and Xu Ke held the reins tightly, got off their horses, cupped their hands and bowed respectfully. My lord!

Jiang Pengji helped them up and smiled, Forget about the formalities, youve worked hard. The journey must have been arduous, go back for a rest and wash up first.

Qiguan Rang said in a solemn mood, Rang is fine, its but a small effort, theres no need to mention. My lord just took over the Xiangyang district, the peoples hearts are not stabilized, theres much to be resolved. To prevent any unforeseen incidents, we should first address the situation and ensure those people who followed our lord over have settled down well.

Xu Ke also concurred. Though he was very exhausted now, formal matters were of more importance.

The viewers who followed the livestream through their entire journey, expressed their excitement to hear and see

Two strategists taking the longest route was surely a ploy of their lord.

Some audience members spoke out boldly with a sense of justice and criticised.

Quer: #laughtillcries, streamer, doesnt your conscience hurt for squeezing your fearful subordinates dry?

Yumaodang Toudingqingtian: The streamer replies with a cold face devoid of feelings, of course it is painless. Exploiting their workers is every bosss basic ability.

Shangcesuo Yongshouzhi: Tsk, tsk, I have followed the streamers livestream for 3 to 4 years, Ive never seen her possessing that attribute.

Jiang Pengji neglected that bullet screen. Her conscience surely doesnt hurt.

Hmm, where is Huiayu?

She glanced once through but didnt see Feng Jin.

Qiguan Rang used his feathered fan and pointed to the horse carriage behind.

Jiang Pengji saw the horse carriage, she remarked emotionally, Having the love of ones wife and children is such a blessing.

The two married men before her experienced a sharp stabbing pain.

My lord, these words hurt!

These are the inner groanings of married men with wives but no one to love them.
