Li Xiao was stunned.

“But…”

“No buts. We had an agreement before. From now on, we will advance and retreat together, and live and die together.” Lin Xiaoyue held Li Xiao’s hand.

Li Xiao looked at Lin Xiaoyue for a long time and finally nodded reluctantly.

Lin Xiaoyue’s face lit up. She stood up and sat in Li Xiao’s arms.

“Don’t worry, we’ll be fine if we work together.” She hugged Li Xiao’s neck.

Li Xiao sighed and turned to look at his wife.

“Then let’s make this clear in advance. This time in the capital, unless it’s absolutely necessary, we can’t use firearms.” He said.

Previously, when the Nangong Army returned, the situation was urgent and they had no choice but to use firearms.

Later on, because of this matter, they were suspected quite a bit. freewe(b)novel

Fortunately, grandpa was there, so nothing happened to them.

This time, he was going to the capital, under the watchful eyes of the Emperor and Prince Anyang.

If they were discovered again, they would probably not be able to live a peaceful life.

“Alright.” Lin Xiaoyue also knew the seriousness of the matter and agreed happily.

“However, 1 can still bring the crossbow.”

It was true that firearms could no longer be displayed to the public, but it did not affect the crossbow.

It was because of this that she had asked the weapons workshop of the Nangong Army to dismantle the crossbows in her space.

Then, she forged hundreds of crossbows.

As they did not consider that the war would come so soon, the production was not high.

But even if there were only a few hundred crossbows, it was enough to equip every soldier of the Nangong Army that entered the capital with one.

“Yes.” Li Xiao’s eyes moved and he nodded.

The couple reached an agreement and quickly discussed the next arrangements.

After nightfall, Qingshi Town had a curfew.

The commoners returned home early, and the streets quickly became quiet.

Until midnight, armored soldiers began to gather at the dock of Qingshi Town.

Xiao Yang, Mr. Xu, and the others led the soldiers to board the ship and went along the long river.

Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao also changed into their armor. After seeing off the Nangong Army that had gone to the border pass, they led the rest of the people to mount their horses and head towards Nan’an County.

The winter wind was biting cold. Lin Xiaoyue rode beside Li Xiao and felt the wind blowing on her face as sharp as a knife.

At the same time, she felt a sense of relief.

Riding a horse on a snowy night and leading an army out, it was truly a heroic spirit.

The 200 men rushed all the way and soon arrived at the Anyang Palace in Nan’an County.

The butler had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing Li Xiao rushing over with his men, a smile finally appeared on his face.

Then, he noticed that Lin Xiaoyue was also there and was a little surprised.

“General, County Head, His Highness and Young Master Liang have been waiting for a long time.” The butler did not hesitate and quickly stepped forward to bow to the two of them.

He had followed His Highness for many years and knew all the big and small matters of the prince’s mansion. Naturally, he would not treat Lin Xiaoyue as an ordinary woman.

“Please lead the way.” Li Xiao strode forward.

“Please-”

In the study of the Imperial Residence.

When Prince Anyang and Liang Yu heard the report, their faces were filled with joy.

He even personally opened the door to welcome them.

“Quick, Li Xiao, let’s talk inside.” Prince Anyang said.

Li Xiao cupped his fists at Prince Anyang and brought Lin Xiaoyue into the study.

Prince Anyang ordered someone to cook ginger soup before inviting the two to sit down.

“It’s been hard on the two of you to set off through the night in the snow.” Returning to the main seat and sitting down, Prince Anyang’s expression changed.

He did not expect that Li Xiao would actually bring Lin Xiaoyue along as well.

However, he was not disgusted by this.

He had come into contact with Ms. Lin’s family many times, and every time, he was pleasantly surprised.

Ms. Lin was not an ordinary woman.

Furthermore, she was the granddaughter of the Imperial Advisor and the county head.

Bringing her to the capital would not cause any trouble.

“Your Highness, you’re too kind. This is what I should do.” Li Xiao cupped his fists and said.

Prince Anyang’s eyes lit up.

“The 200 soldiers that followed me back to the capital this time are of utmost importance. Have you made the appropriate arrangements?” Soon, Prince Anyang stopped smiling and asked Li Xiao with a serious expression.

This time, he did not bring any of his own soldiers into the capital. He had arranged for all of them to be Li Xiao’s Nangong Army.

Li Xiao should understand the meaning behind this.

Li Xiao nodded.

“Your Highness, don’t worry. All of them are elites! In the army, one can handle three enemies at once!”

Prince Anyang’s eyes lit up.

It was said that the Nangong Army could take on io enemies at once. If one could fight 3, then to ordinary soldiers, one could fight 30.

This way, these 200 people had the combat power of 6,000 people..
