Jiang Peihuan continued to address Lin Xingchen, “1 see the bandits under your command trained more like soldiers than bandits. Why not follow under the banner of King Cheng?

“With your skills, making great achievements is only a matter of time. Once you’ve proven yourself in battle, you can return to the Lin family and reclaim all you’ve lost with honor.”

“Moreover, it’s such a waste for a distinguished family’s young master like you to become an outlaw.”

“I don’t believe in a free lunch in this world. Miss Jiang, what’s your purpose in helping me?”

“It’s simple. First, tell me who wants to kill me. Second, helping you does no good for the Lin family, but it does help my general’s mansion. Third, you have natural talent for leadership. It’s a pity if your abilities aren’t utilized on the battlefield.”

While Jiang Peihuan and Lin Xingchen spoke, Xiao Nanye remained silent.

However, when Lin Xingchen turned to him, Xiao Nanye calmly said, “You hurt my future queen. For that you must die.”

“But since Huan Er said that you are a born military genius, then for the sake of Qi kingdom’s people, I will give you a chance.”

Lin Xingchen might not trust Jiang Peihuan, but he trusted Xiao Nanye.

After hearing his words, Lin Xingchen knelt on one knee and bowed to Xiao Nanye, “Greetings, Your Highness.”

Then, Lin Xingchen looked back at Jiang Peihuan, “The one who sent me today is Prince Qing.”

“Xiao Junhao?”

“The man didn’t reveal his identity when he left, but I followed him and saw him enter Prince Qing’s mansion.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Peihuan became more certain of her thoughts. Lin Xingchen is not only a martial arts expert but also a thoughtful person. Such a person would undoubtedly be a strong warrior on the battlefield.

In her previous life, Xiao Junhao spared Lin Xingchen’s life, and later, Lin Xingchen fought for him and made numerous military achievements.

In this life, Jiang Peihuan wants to send Lin Xingchen into Xiao Nanye’s hands.

“I will settle this score with him later.”

Upon hearing the name Xiao Junhao, Xiao Nanye’s eyes darkened.

Then, Xiao Nanye gave Lin Xingchen a token, “Take my token and go directly to the Xiaoqi camp. They will arrange everything for you when they see the token.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Lin Xingchen is a straightforward person. Once he has made up his mind, he is very obedient.

Holding the token given by Xiao Nanye, he left with his men.

After they left, Jiang Peihuan turned to the man beside her, “Didn’t you go to Jiangzhou? Why did you come here?”

“I received a letter from Han Feng saying you were going to Qingzhou. An District is a must-pass route to Qingzhou, so 1 rushed over here hoping to run into you.”

“What if we had just missed each other?”

“Then 1 would go to Qingzhou.”

Hearing this, Jiang Peihuan looked surprised. Looking at Xiao Nanye, she couldn’t help but ask, “Don’t you need to return to Jiangzhou?”

“No need, the matter has been investigated. I have already asked Han Feng to deliver the letter to your elder brother. He will handle the rest.”

“So, I can accompany you to Qingzhou next.”

“To Qingzhou?”

“Yes.”

Seeing Xiao Nanye nodding, Jiang Peihuan couldn’t help but ask, “The round trip from Qingzhou to the Jingdou takes several days. Aren’t you afraid the Emperor will be looking for you?”

“It’s okay, I’ve already sent a letter to the Emperor, saying I’m going to travel for a few days.”

It was originally a trio, but it ended up being a quartet.

Xiao Nanye and Jiang Peihuan rode their horses side by side, while Ye Xiao and Deputy General Liu followed behind.

Jiang Peihuan originally wanted to rush to Qingzhou directly, but the slap from Lin Xingchen had caused her some internal injuries, so Xiao Nanye insisted on resting overnight before continuing the journey.

There were no inns since they had already left the county, so they finally stopped at a rundown temple.

“You two split up, one to gather some firewood, the other to see if there’s any food.”

As soon as they walked into the rundown temple, Xiao Nanye gave instructions to Ye Xiao and Deputy General Liu.

Seeing Xiao Nanye alone by Jiang Peihuan’s side, Deputy General Liu hesitated a little, but remembering Xiao Nanye’s frequent late-night visits to the plum garden in Jingdou, he was at ease.

Xiao Nanye found a relatively clean corner and spread straw on the ground, then looked at Jiang Peihuan, “Huan Er, come sit here.”

Just as Jiang Peihuan sat down, she saw Xiao Nanye heading outside. She instinctively asked, “Where are you going?”

“I’m going to look for water nearby.”

Everyone’s water bottles were empty. Xiao Nanye took the water bottles and left the temple.

However, worried about Jiang Peihuan, Xiao Nanye didn’t go far. He filled the bottles from a nearby creek and returned straightaway.

Jiang Peihuan was resting in the corner. When she heard a noise, she immediately opened her eyes. Seeing that it was Xiao Nanye, she relaxed.

“Have some water.”

The man opened the water bottle and held it to Jiang Peihuan’s lips.

Jiang Peihuan took the water bottle and had a few sips.

“Are you done drinking?”

Seeing Jian Peihuan nod, Xiao Nanye brought the water bottle to his mouth and drank a few mouthfuls of water from Jiang Peihuan’s water bottle.

He gulped down several mouthfuls of water, clearly thirsty.

Jiang Peihuan initially wanted to say that it was her water bottle, but seeing Xiao Nanye in this state, she couldn’t help but ask, “Didn’t you drink any water when you went to fetch it?”

“I was worried about you being alone here, so I came back first.”

The man subconsciously spoke. After setting down the water bottle, he sat down next to Jiang Peihuan.

At this moment, Ye Xiao and Deputy General Liu also walked in.

Ye Xiao was holding a large bundle of firewood in her hands, while Deputy General Liu was carrying two cleaned fish.

Once they sat down, Vice General Liu said softly, “Miss, Your Highness, there aren’t many wild animals in this area, so we only managed to catch these two fish. Please make do with these.”

“It’s okay, these two fish are quite big, enough for the four of us.”

After looking at the fish in Deputy General Liu’s hands, Jiang Peihuan spoke softly.

Each fish weighed three catties. Ye Xiao quickly lit the fire, Deputy General Liu set up the rack, and then the fish were placed on the fire to roast.

Initially, both fish were in Deputy General Liu’s hands, but suddenly Xiao Nanye stretched out his hand, “Give me one.”

“Your Highness, I will…”

“I’ll roast the one Huan Er is going to eat.”

Upon hearing these words, Deputy General Liu didn’t persist, and handed the larger one to Xiao Nanye.

Xiao Nanye’s movements were very skilled, which didn’t surprise Jiang Peihuan. Others might not know, but she was well aware.

When Xiao Nanye fought in the war, he basically lived and ate with the soldiers, so it was very normal for him to know how to roast a fish.

An hour later, Xiao Nanye cut a piece of fish with a dagger and handed it to Jian Peihuan.” Huan Er, try it..””
