Mu Mingtang was still very calm as she replied, “Why are you crying? The Prince is here, so there is nothing to panic about. Go outside and close the doors and windows, keep an eye on our belongings and restrain others to stay in the yard. No one is allowed to go out without my order. If anyone dares to go out and run around, regardless of status, they will be punished with 30 cane whips.”
The maids were frightened by Mu Mingtang’s call and hurried out to pass the message. They were panicking just now, but since they were strictly restrained and given orders by Mu Mingtang, they didn’t seem to be panicking anymore.

The other families in Qinghe Town were panicked, but when they saw that King Qiyang’s own family members were all staying in the house, why were they running? If something really happened, wouldn’t the Princess be better informed than they were?
Everyone felt relieved and followed Mu Mingtang’s example, closing the doors and windows, waiting out the war with their entire families together.
At this moment on the glacier, Ye Luji was leading his men across the river. The marchers were very cautious about natural dangers, let alone such a big river. If the river was not frozen solid or if they get lost in the middle, it would be a disaster. Ye Luji very carefully captured the locals and sent several passers-by to explore the road. After confirming that there were no problems, he launched the charge today.
In order to disperse the pressure and show off his strong military strength, Ye Luji arranged 100,000 people to line up in a long row. It looked like a million-strong army. Dark clouds hovered over the situation, causing great psychological pressure on the opponent.
As expected, the imperial troops displayed on the other side of the river looked horrified and even several Deputy Commanders were worried.
There were 100,000 people there and the Beirong people have always fought bravely. How would this battle be fought? Xie Xuanchen seemed unhurried. He held the reins and quietly watched the Beirong people step across the middle line of the river, getting closer and closer to the river bank.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe Deputy Commander panicked and looked at Xie Xuanchen frequently. He wanted to speak many times, but was suppressed by Xie Xuanchen’s intimidating aura. Later, one person couldn’t bear it any longer and asked, “Your Highness, are we still moving out?”
As soon as he finished speaking, a column of water suddenly rose from the river. Xie Xuanchen’s eyes suddenly became sharp. It’s here.
He didn’t say a word and merely reined in his horse and moved forward. Everyone in front of the formation looked at him quietly and nervously. Xie Xuanchen walked to the front of the array, raised his hand and said, “Prepare the arrow array in the middle, draw the bow…”
He suddenly lowered his palm and pointed directly at the chaotic Beirong army in the middle of the river, “Fire!”
When Ye Luji led his men across the river, he had been careful in the first half to guard against Xie Xuanchen’s manipulation. But even until they were halfway through the journey, there was no movement from the other side.
Ye Luji felt relieved, guessing that Xie Xuanchen wanted to wait until they had completely crossed the river and were out of formation to make a surprise attack. Ye Luji laughed disdainfully, thinking that this was the God of War of the Ye Dynasty. This was the figure who was known as the national treasure that the Ye Dynasty possessed, but in the end, he didn’t amount to anything special either.
