After Mu Mingtang and the servants moved in, they looked around and were quite satisfied, “Although the place is a bit small, we can head both north and southwards from here. The house is bright and there is a small garden as well, so I guess this is good enough.”
Mu Mingtang was probably the easiest to satisfy among the group. She actually thought that this place was already very good by her standards. After hearing the maid’s words, Mu Mingtang silently swallowed back her praiseful evaluation and said, “We are outside now, so don’t be too picky. Hurry and boil some water— after a whole day of journeying, I am a bit tired.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe servant responded and went immediately. When Mu Mingtang first left the city, she only brought 5 servants and the little Taoist priest with her. Now, there were more and more people serving her, the total number of people attesting to her needs alone amounting to more than 10.
Some were bought during their journey and some were given as gifts by the wives of various city guards. In short, Mu Mingtang’s baggage team was getting bigger and bigger.
Though Mu Mingtang’s situation was pretty good, Xie Xuanchen’s situation was considered impressive in terms of expansion of manpower. After the news of Xie Xuanchen’s northward journey spread, people continued to catch up and join him along the way. In every town, the local garrison would also recruit a group of volunteers to travel along.
There were only 8,000 men when he left, but now there were already 20,000.
Xie Xuanchen went to check the defence of Enzhou City today as the scouts came back with news stating that Ye Luji’s army was nearby. A large battle would probably be inevitable sooner than they thought.
This time, there was no geographical advantage for their team and Ye Luji would not underestimate the enemy again. It would be a head-to-head battle.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEnzhou’s Senior Magistrate had been worried for several days, so he was more than grateful to have Xie Xuanchen take the reins in ensuring the city’s safety. He also had full authority to mobilise the troops in Enzhou City.
But Xie Xuanchen went to see the training level of the soldiers in Enzhou City and was extremely worried when he came back. By then, Mu Mingtang had already taken a shower and changed clothes. When she saw him coming back with a dark expression on his face, she stepped forward to untie his cloak and arm guards before she asked, “What’s wrong? Who made you angry again?”
Xie Xuanchen got a headache just with the thought as a reminder. He threw his cloak to the servant, put his arms around Mu Mingtang’s shoulders and walked in, “It’s just the trash outside. I’m really surprised— Enzhou City allocates a lot of military expenditures every year. How can their standard amount to only this?”
Mu Mingtang comforted him, “You can’t judge others by your own level. If everyone in the Ye Dynasty were like you, then how could there be Beirong and Xixia? They aren’t even capable of building their own country.”
Xie Xuanchen laughed when he heard it. It’s strange because the men out there also said similar things, but those losers praised him for being brave and invincible. For some reason, hearing that made Xie Xuanchen so disgusted to the point where just wanted to crush them to death. However, when Mu Mingtang said it, it was very pleasing to the ears.
