“There are four other brothers who are with me. They should be here by now.” “Oh?” Liu Hong’s eyes lit up.

“The people Teacher Qin brought must be very capable!”

Qin Xiaoyao smiled but didn’t reply.

“Teacher, please go to the tent to rest first. Our Colonel will be here soon. I’ll go tell him the good news!”

Qin Xiaoyao nodded.

Liu Hong quickly told Liu San to follow Qin Xiaoyao and instructed him to take good care of her.

Then, he went to look for Chu Jin personally.

Qin Xiaoyao and Liu San entered a tent together.

Then, she found a place to sit down.

Qin Xiaoyao could not help but laugh when she saw Liu San standing not far away with a stiff posture and sneaking a peek at her from time to time.

“Brother Liu, why do you keep sneaking a look at me?” she asked.

Liu San’s movements froze.

A look of embarrassment appeared on his face when he realized he had been caught in the act.

When he saw Qin Xiaoyao looking at him with a smile, he quickly suppressed his nervousness.

“You… are you really Teacher Qin?” he asked Qin Xiaoyao.

At the same time, his eyes scanned Qin Xiaoyao from head to toe.

His youngest uncle had mentioned before that Teacher Qin’s martial arts were unparalleled in the world.

Based on what he saw earlier, “Qin San’s” martial arts skills were indeed powerful.

However, he remembered… that Teacher Qin was a woman…

This guy Qin San… did not talk or act like a woman at all.

Qin Xiaoyao looked at Liu San and nodded.

“That is indeed me,” she said.

Liu San’s eyes widened.

“Then you… are a woman?” he asked.

He only realized that he had said something wrong after he asked the question, so he quickly covered his mouth.

Qin Xiaoyao was astonished momentarily.

Only then did she remember that she was wearing men’s clothes.

Following that, she smiled calmly.

“Why? Can’t a woman kill Liao scumbags?” she asked.

“No… no!” Liu San’s face instantly turned red as he subconsciously blurted his reply.

“Other women might not be able to, but Teacher Qin is different!” This was someone even the Second Prince himself regarded highly.

It was said that having Teacher Qin was equivalent to having an army of ten thousand men.

Who in the entire Great Jin State could receive such lofty praise?

“Haha…” Qin Xiaoyao laughed in amusement.

This laugh made Liu San even more embarrassed, and his face turned even redder.

Fortunately, Chu Jin’s voice could be heard from outside the tent soon after.

“Teacher Qin, is it really you?” Chu Jin’s voice was loud and urgent.

She could tell that the person who had arrived had walked here in a hurry.

Just as Qin Xiaoyao looked at the entrance of the tent, she saw Chu Jin striding in from outside.

When he saw that the person in the tent was really Qin Xiaoyao, Chu Jin was pleasantly surprised and quickly came forward.

“Chu Jin hereby pays his respects to Teacher!” He cupped his fists and bowed to Qin Xiaoyao.

Qin Xiaoyao returned the greeting with a smile.

“Colonel Chu, 1 hope you’re well.”

The atmosphere immediately became more relaxed.

“Haha! All thanks to Teacher, I am doing well!

“I heard about it from Liu Hong on the way here.

“The reason the attack on Yellow Flower Town went so smoothly tonight was all thanks to you, Teacher! I must thank you, Teacher!” Chu Jin cupped his fists again.

Qin Xiaoyao gestured with her hand.

“I only did it in passing. I didn’t know that Colonel Chu would attack the town tonight. As for now, it’s good that the war is going smoothly.”

Chu Jin’s face was full of smiles.

“Teacher, you have made a great contribution. We should congratulate you. 1 have already instructed people to prepare a banquet. How about following me for a chat, Teacher?” he continued.

He had already heard about the details from the captives of the Liao army. A group of people had burned their food rations and provisions, and one person had chased the Liao army’s chiliarch while being surrounded by thousands of soldiers and then killed him with one strike.

Initially, he thought that the Liao army captives were exaggerating.

Now that he knew that it was Teacher Qin who was responsible, he felt that it should be true.

Back in Mountain Spring Town, the Second Prince had wanted to recruit Teacher Qin.

Unfortunately, Teacher Qin didn’t have the ambition to make a name for herself. In the end, His Highness could only leave with regret.

Today, Teacher Qin had come to Yellow Flower Town and even took the initiative to attack the Liao army.

There must be some unspoken reasons leading up to this stage.

Since the Second Prince was not here now, he naturally had to take good care of Teacher Qin.

If he could help His Highness win over Teacher Qin, he would definitely have made a great contribution.

To His Highness, and to the Great Jin State, this would be an incredibly good outcome.

“In that case, 1 shall not stand on ceremony anymore,” Qin Xiaoyao answered with a smile.

As she was leaving, she suddenly thought of something.

She then told Chu Jin about Huang Fei and the rest.

Chu Jin made the necessary arrangements immediately before leaving with Qin Xiaoyao.

In a restaurant in Yellow Flower Town, Chu Jin led Qin Xiaoyao into a private dining room in the restaurant.

Good wine and delicious food had already been laid out in the room, and the spread was very sumptuous.

When Qin Xiaoyao saw this, she felt hungry at once.

After sitting down, she did not stand on ceremony and started eating as she chatted with Chu Jin. From time to time, she would have a drink with Chu Jin. It was as if she had returned to the days in the military camp in Mountain Spring Town.

“The Second Prince will be very happy to know that you have come!” Chu Jin clinked his cup with Qin Xiaoyao’s and said in a probing manner.

Qin Xiaoyao glanced at Chu Jin and didn’t say anything. She drank the wine in her glass in one gulp.

A moment later, she said, “Indeed, I came here to look for the Second Prince.”

Qin Xiaoyao sighed when she saw Chu Jin looking at her. She continued, “Something happened at home, and after thinking about it, I came to the conclusion that only the Second Prince can help me.”

“What happened?” Chu Jin immediately asked worriedly.

Qin Xiaoyao’s face appeared very troubled.

“My husband… has been taken away,” she finally told the truth.

Chu Jin was shocked.

Realization dawned on him immediately.

They had all seen how much Teacher Qin loved her husband.

If something had really happened to Master Song, it would make sense for Teacher Qin to travel thousands of miles to ask for help.

When she saw the curiosity on Chu Jin’s face, Qin Xiaoyao then explained the details of Song Que’s disappearance.

“When I came out, the Liao army had already appeared in Hua An Prefecture.

“At that time, it was not only at the border, but there were also many places in the Great Jin State that were at war. After the Imperial Court recruited soldiers, the way they assigned the troops was chaotic. Thus, I can’t be sure where my husband has been assigned to.

“The only feasible method that I can think of is to ask the Second Prince for help. Ask him to help me look for my husband.

“That’s why 1 left Hua An Prefecture and came all the way to Yellow Flower Town.” As Qin Xiaoyao spoke, she took a sip of wine listlessly.

“I had only intended to rest in the town for a night, and then continue on my journey to High Pass Town to look for the Second Prince.

“Unexpectedly, 1 learned that the Liao army has hoarded a large amount of grain in Yellow Flower Town. With Yellow Flower Town as the center, this place supplies resources to more than a dozen towns around it.

“Huang Fei and a few others brought up the idea of burning the food rations to me. I thought that it wouldn’t take long, so 1 agreed.”

Chu Jin raised his cup to toast Qin Xiaoyao.

“Teacher, you have helped me a lot this time!” he said.

Qin Xiaoyao laughed and clinked cups with Chu Jin before downing her drink in one gulp.

“Three days ago, 1 was given orders to leave High Pass Town.

“Although the Second Prince has stopped the Liao army from increasing the number of their troops, a large number of them have already infiltrated into the heart of the Great Jin State.

“Many places in the Great Jin State are already in chaos due to the famine and bandit trouble earlier. The Imperial Army is struggling to deal with these places. With the arrival of the Liao army, the situation became even more complicated.

“The Imperial Court is trying to seek peace. Although they had no choice but to do this, it is very disappointing.

“Only then did His Highness give the order for Han Chao and 1 to each bring some men into the heart of the state and take out some of the Liao soldiers..”
