Chapter 1686: Chapter 1686: Darkened Chongfei Script 38

The moment the guard’s words fell, everyone in the room fell silent.

Those present included not just officials from Shangyun City, but also Ouyang Yu’s followers.

And naturally, all the generals and deputy generals in Ouyang Yu’s barracks knew Song Zhen.

Upon hearing the guard’s words, everyone paused there, waiting for Ouyang Yu to speak.

After all, they’ve battled together on the front lines, and Song Zhen is a woman.

She has certainly earned the admiration of many.

Ouyang Yu’s face was cold and hard, draped in a black robe, giving no hint of his thoughts.

For a long time.

Beside him, Xun Jing spoke up.

"Song Zhen? Is she the female general in the barracks?"

His voice came slowly, filled with doubt.

The kneeling guard naturally knew Xun Jing’s identity.

He quickly responded.

"Yes."

Immediately after, Xun Jing said thoughtfully,

"That female general is indeed formidable; even a woman can go to the battlefield and kill enemies."

As he spoke, he paused, then continued warmly,

"I’ve heard she and the General were childhood sweethearts. The General even promised her the position of Princess, a story much told in the barracks."

After his words fell, the expressions of those present varied.

The envoy was taken aback.

"Promised the position of Princess? To whom? To that female general?

Then, what about our Princess?

Become a concubine?!"

By the time he finished, the envoy was so angry his face turned livid.

Even if Prince Zhen Nan is a battlefield hero, he is no Emperor.

You are a general; our family has a Princess.

Not only have you consistently neglected our Princess, but you promised the position of Princess to another, letting our Princess be a concubine??

This, this, this is simply outrageous!!

The envoy wanted to question Ouyang Yu.

But Ouyang Yu’s presence was too overwhelming.

Eventually, his gaze fell on the imperial envoy who came with him.

The imperial envoy was still bewildered by Xun Jing’s words.

Trying to find someone to provide an answer,

his eyes turned to Ouyang Yu, who hadn’t said a word.

As for Ouyang Yu, his gaze showed no signs of movement.

He turned his head to look at Xun Jing.

The two exchanged glances.

Whatever their intentions truly were,

only they would know.

Su Yan frowned slightly.

Really, it’s so noisy.

She forced herself to endure the irritation inside.

Trying to make sure she could get through the banquet.

If only these people would speak less.

Meanwhile, Zhang Ke, who was seated at a nearby banquet table, finally couldn’t hold back.

He knelt on one knee.

"Please, General, show mercy beyond the law and see Vice General Song.

If not, she truly won’t make it through the night."

His voice strained with endurance.

The surrounding soldiers all spoke as one.

"Please, General, show mercy beyond the law."

In unison, they all stood up, cupped their fists.

Bowing in the direction of Ouyang Yu.

The imperial envoy was stupefied watching this.

"This, this"

What exactly is happening?

Xun Jing observed the scene, still wearing a gentle expression.

Seeing Su Yan sitting there, silent with her head down,

he pinched a piece of pastry and handed it over.

"Princess, not hungry?"

As if the surrounding commotion had nothing to do with him, he showed no interest in it.

Su Yan was a beat slow to react.

She raised her head.

Looking at the pastry, she opened her mouth and bit down.

Then lowered her head again.

Xun Jing raised an eyebrow.

Perhaps he hadn’t expected Su Yan to bite into it directly.

Seeming to find it amusing,

he pinched another piece of pastry and handed it over.

Before long, Su Yan raised her head again and bit into it.

The two of them, one eating, one feeding, enjoying themselves immensely.
