Chapter 217 Stability
When everyone heard this angry voice, they all turned their heads to check, only to realize that General Xu had been standing behind him and observing silently for a long time.

"The general is here, it's General Xu."

Everyone seemed to be completely encouraged, and their hearts seemed to be relieved at once, and Huilan also heaved a long sigh of relief.

General Xu strode up to the high platform with a whip in his hand, glanced at Huilan, smiled and nodded at her, expressing his appreciation.

Huilan saluted respectfully, took a step back silently, and stepped off the stage with the child in her arms.

General Xu glanced at the heads and corpses on the stage, and sneered, "Why? Someone deliberately caused trouble before the old man died? It was authorized by the old man to his wife. If you are dissatisfied, you can file a lawsuit and dare to drive up the price. Create panic, disturb the morale of the army, and kill without mercy!"

"promise."

This time, the people from the yamen were the first to respond. Everyone agreed that Huilan made this drama because of the prince's face. In fact, he was playing drums in his heart, but General Xu's status is different. He is a general, a veteran who has won the emperor's trust, A promise of gold.

There is no way to survive if he is annoyed. Although these people are oily, no one can offend them, no one can play tricks, and they have nothing in their minds.

"Our soldiers are still on the bloody battlefield, but you don't want to trust us, so who is our blood shed for? Are you not as good as women and children?"

Everyone lowered their heads, a little ashamed and embarrassed.

"Now I'm here to assign tasks. I need arrows, a large number of arrows and bows, everyone's efforts, and food and fodder. The imperial court's military salary is already on the way, but I can't wait."

"General, I have prepared some food and grass in the warehouse, which can be taken away at any time. Let me figure out a way for arrows."

Huilan hastened to speak, she couldn't play tricks on such a big matter.

General Xu nodded and pointed at Huilan, "You look down on women, but it's the women you look down on who spend their own money to buy food and medicinal materials to treat our soldiers, don't you panic? Not as courageous as a woman."

Everyone was so scolded that they couldn't lift their heads.

"Okay, I don't have time to chat with you, general. No matter whether you are willing to help or not, our soldiers will fight to the end until they all die on the battlefield."

General Xu stepped off the stage quickly, and bowed to Huilan, "I'm leaving soon, and I'm here to get food and fodder."

"Okay, the general will go back with me, I'm ready."

Pei Xin followed the general back to the mansion. The people in the yamen asked everyone to disperse, but some volunteered to sign up to help with the patrol, and some blacksmiths were also willing to make arrows and other things. Everyone actively participated.

Back at the mansion, Pei Xin came here with the general on purpose, firstly for protection, but to pack food and grass, and put it back in a storage bag, which is convenient to carry and not easy to be robbed, this is how it was carried and transported several times.

General Xu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Pei Xin had packed the grain and grass and the medicinal materials refined by Huilan Xu's imperial physician.

"General, let Doctor Xu go to the barracks with you, he can help you."

"how about you."

General Xu looked at Huilan, feeling a little distressed for this woman, a hero among women, who has done her best for His Highness and for those rough people like them.

"You forgot, I know medicine, it's fine, and I can help you buy food, grass and medicinal materials if I stay. Otherwise, who will make these things for you, and the villagers will be more at ease and at ease if I stay."

This is the reason why she stayed here without moving half a step, which played a role in calming people's hearts.

General Xu knew what she said was right, but he felt uncomfortable, wiped his face and cupped his fists, "Ma'am, take care."

"Don't worry, Pei Xin, is the jade talisman I gave you still there? Will you use it?"

"It will work, Ma'am, don't worry, I will keep it with me."

"Okay, if there is any emergency, I will use the jade talisman to contact you, and then you will be able to prepare for it in advance."

"Yes."

"Go."

Huilan sent them away with a smile on her face.

General Xu came in a hurry, brought food and grass, and left in a hurry, but the situation and people's hearts in Fengshan Town quickly stabilized, everyone performed their duties in an orderly manner, and there was no panic.

After General Xu left, Li Chengze never came back. He heard that there was a small-scale battle on the border, and the two sides tried and rubbed against each other.

Huilan didn't see Li Chengze for several months, and could only talk to him through jade charms.

Sister Xin is already one year old, and she didn't invite anyone. She just played around with people from Sun Bin's mansion in the house. Sister Xin grabbed a small wooden sword, which made everyone laugh and let it go. That's all.

Sister Xin has been warmed and dredged by Huilan for a whole year. She has a strong body and has never been sick.

She has walked relatively steadily, but she can't speak, and can only speak simple words with one syllable.

This day Huilan was holding her in the garden looking at flowers, "Flowers."

"what."

Sister Xin held on to the flower branch and did not let go, while Huilan took her little hand and gently tugged it back.

"what."

As soon as Sister Xin tore off the flower branch with all her strength, Huilan's eyes widened.

"Yo! Sister Xin is quite strong."

Pei Liang also laughed.

"It just so happens."

"How is it possible? You see, this is a fresh branch, flexible."

"Don't make a fuss, you won't be able to see anything at a young age, at least you will be able to see a thing or two after you are two years old."

"That's right, but you should pay more attention on weekdays and watch her, so as not to hurt yourself."

"it is good."

"Sister Xin, come and hug me."

Pei Liang picked up Sister Xin, put her on his neck, and ran happily around the yard. Sister Xin was giggling.

Huilan looked at it and shook her head helplessly.

"Laner."

Li Chengze stood at the door watching this scene, with a knowing smile on the corner of his mouth, seeing his daughter's smile, it seemed that all the dark emotions were dissolved by the sunshine.

"Ze Lang, you are back, why did you come back suddenly?"

"The battle ahead is stable, nothing serious for the time being, I'll come back to see your mother and daughter, how are you and your child?"

"We're doing very well. You can see how happy Sister Xin is. She likes to ride a big horse with her neck the most, but she often makes things difficult for them, and she has ridden all of them one by one."

Huilan burst out laughing. Everyone loves Sister Xin very much, especially Pei Liang who puts the child on her neck all day long. Sister Xin is used to this exclusive seat.

"Your Highness, you are back, sister Xin, dad is back."

Pei Liang came over to greet Sister Xin with his arms in his arms.

However, because she hadn't seen Sister Xin for so long, she didn't know Li Chengze anymore, but she was not afraid of strangers, she stared at him with big round eyes, full of curiosity, and reached out to grab his fingers.

"Sister Xin, let daddy hug me, my dear daughter, daddy misses you so much."

Li Chengze stretched out his hand to his daughter. Sister Xin didn't refuse or respond too much, but she still let him hold her in her arms.

"It's okay, I'll let you hug her. Your daughter has a stubborn temper. Last time, she slashed Nanny's face and didn't take her to play in the garden because of the delay."

"My daughter is a princess, so what's wrong with a little temper, don't you want my daughter to become a little sheep so that others dare not say a word when they bully her?"

Li Chengze choked back unceremoniously, a princess must have the style and temper of a princess.

Huilan shook her head and said nothing, too lazy to argue with him.

"Go back and wash up, sister Xin, come and hug me."

Sister Xin immediately stretched out her hand to Huilan and was about to leave without hesitation, causing Li Chengze to look disappointed.

"She doesn't know you anymore, it's good to know her for a few days. You've worked hard too, take a bath and rest, cook some good dishes in the evening, and you brothers have a glass of wine and talk together."

Huilan left with her daughter in her arms, to find some good dishes.

"Your Highness, the situation in Fengshan Town is fairly stable. My wife and everyone are doing a lot of work. There are still people patrolling the town on a regular basis. Don't worry."
