That’s right. Rong Yan didn’t let anyone tell the Crown Prince that “smallpox” was a rumor. The doctors kept it a secret, and Xiaoxiao specially stayed in the courtyard without leaving. She wanted to righteously trap the Crown Prince here so that he wouldn’t cause trouble.

The Crown Prince looked at the stern and unreasonable expressions of these martial men in front of him and was furious. “This is really a tiger being bullied by dogs!” He flicked his sleeves and shouted, “Guards! Where’s Shao Lin?”

He was fine after living in the courtyard for so many days. It was reasonable for him to ask to leave now. If Rong Yan’s men still made excuses, they must be deliberately obstructing him. He naturally wouldn’t tolerate it anymore!

Deputy General Yu was in a difficult position, filled with annoyance.

The difficult thing was that the person in front of him had a noble status. He was annoyed that he was like most other noble people. He was useless, but he had a lot of problems. He was late to deliver food and his meals had to be brought into the house for him to eat. They could just bring it over and eat it well. He accidentally knocked it over and actually asked for an extra serving! It was fine if he did not know how to empathize when his brothers were captured, but he actually shouted and made a fuss. Tsk, in short, he did not like him.

Although he was a martial artist, he could tell that the Crown Prince was deliberately looking for trouble today. He had seen many such people. If he really let this person leave the small courtyard, his next step would be to interfere in military matters.

It would be fine if he really had the ability to be a general like the Third Prince, but he only knew how to put on airs as the Crown Prince when he encountered trouble. What did he know about serious matters?! At least the Crown Prince clearly did not agree to pursue the Xiongnu!

Deputy General Yu gritted his teeth. At most, he would force the Crown Prince to stay even if he had to offend his superiors!

His brothers had all gone to kill the enemy with the Third Prince. How could he hold them back?

Seeing that this martial artist actually dared to stop him, the Crown Prince shouted angrily, “How dare you!”

At this moment, the tightly shut door at the side suddenly opened and a girl with a face full of acne walked out. She was originally holding a basin of water in her hand, but at this moment, she seemed to be frightened by the Crown Prince’s voice. Her hand trembled and the water fell over.

The Crown Prince looked down at his wet pants and then at the terrifying pustules on the girl’s face. He turned around and vomited. Behind him, Xiaoxiao gave Deputy General Yu a look. “Hey, what’s going on? Why is there someone outside my door?”

“General Yu, move further away. I’ve accidentally developed smallpox these few days…” Deputy General Yu was not stupid and immediately reacted. “Aiya, could it be that Miss contracted this when you prepared food for the doctors and patients? I’m impressed by your righteousness!”

Xiaoxiao looked at the Crown Prince “nervously”. “I didn’t expect it to be like this just by touching something they used. Aiya, what should I do? I just washed my hands with the water just now…”

Deputy General Yu sighed and said respectfully to Crown Prince, “For Your Highness’s safety and the stability of the border city, I implore Your Highness to go back and observe for a few days. Only then can you get the doctor to treat you in time if you feel unwell.”

The Crown Prince gritted his teeth, but he could not refuse. He could only glare at Xiaoxiao angrily and remember this grudge.

Xiaoxiao lowered her eyes and waited for him to leave before wiping her face with her sleeve under everyone’s worried gazes. She winked at them. “It’s fake. Am I good? I made it with rice paste!”

Deputy General Yu and the guards heaved a sigh of relief.

The Third Prince had entrusted the girl to them. How could they answer if anything happened to her!

Moreover, Miss did her best for the soldiers. Wouldn’t the heavens be blind if she still contracted the illness?

Xiaoxiao’s smart brain had already gone through a rapid process. She smiled and said to everyone, “However, since I used this excuse to fool the Crown Prince, I definitely have to pretend to be sick next. It’s a waste of time and food to refine this thing every day. So, why don’t I lie in bed every day?”

She put on a serious expression and lied to Deputy General Yu. No, she said to Deputy General Yu, “The more seriously I’m sick, the more reasonable it is for you to keep the Crown Prince.”

Deputy General Yu took a look and bowed to thank her. “Thank you for your help, Miss!”

Xiaoxiao thought to herself that there was no need to thank her. It was good for everyone.

Although she helped keep the Crown Prince, she successfully offended this person. The guards decided to take turns guarding the door and not let her be unguarded. The Yun Guards and secret guards would arrange it to ensure that nothing went wrong.

They were well-guarded, but they did not know that the Crown Prince did not even have the mood to find someone to kill Xiaoxiao when he thought of her face that was filled with “impurities”. He was disgusted for a long time before he ordered, “Keep an eye on her. She’s lucky to be sick and dead. If she’s alive, we’ll definitely make that ugly freak wish she was dead!”

“Also, quickly send the letter out…”

Xiaoxiao waited in the room until midnight. After confirming that the Yun Guards were really loyal, she placed an NPC on the bed. Then, she used her space to flash 23 meters away and rushed over. When she walked out of the line of sight of the people in the border city, Xiaoxiao flashed out of the space and waved her hand to release Lightning, who could not hold itself back anymore.

When she came to the border, in order to be able to ride a horse legitimately in the future, Xiaoxiao also brought along Wind, who had already grown up a little. He was usually raised in the stable and stayed with the warhorses. Every time she went to see him, Xiaoxiao would have a twin exchange. The two of them seemed to have become spirits and imitated each other in front of others. Sometimes, even Xiaoxiao would mistake them for the wrong horse.

The moment Lightning came out of the space, it raised its hooves excitedly and neighed non-stop. If Xiaoxiao hadn’t patted it, it probably would have run away immediately.

The saddle was always in the space. Lightning cooperated and let Xiaoxiao saddled it up before turning back and waiting for her to signal. Xiaoxiao patted the horse’s butt in amusement. “Let’s go. Let me see how fast you can be now.” Aiyo, if Master said that, it wouldn’t be sleepy anymore. Lightning snorted and even dug the ground, then rushed out like the wind.

To be honest, its speed was not slower than the flash of 23 meters in the space. Xiaoxiao had a good experience of riding a horse. Her butt went numb when she saw the Great Xia army from afar. She rubbed her butt and dismounted with difficulty. She glared at the instigator and flashed into the space with the horse.

Using the space function required mental strength. Xiaoxiao did not want to suddenly faint at a critical moment. She would save as much as she could.

Lightning continued to run in the space, unsatisfied. Xiaoxiao took the opportunity and suddenly flashed into the camp.

The border city was still a distance away from Xiongnu. If the army rushed on, they would be exhausted before the battle started. Hence, necessary rest was naturally indispensable. Now, everyone was setting up camp and taking turns to replenish their strength.

The deputy generals surrounded the bonfire and munched on biscuits. “This is the compressed biscuit that the commander-in-chief mentioned, right? When I first saw it, I thought the commander-in-chief was joking with me. It’s just a small piece, and even dogs can’t eat their fill! I didn’t expect… Burp!” He burped and exchanged admiring looks with the others.. “This thing is really amazing!”
