Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 421: The Lord of Zhenxi

The middle-aged man was the military advisor of Li Jiping, the commander of the Yinzhou Military Supervision Office of Western Xia, and his name was Shangshu Kai.

Following behind him was Ning Zhen, the chief guard of Yinzhou Deputy Commander Zhang Enyi.

After the delegation returned to Yinzhou, the matter was exposed because Li Xinyan followed them to Lingdouzi Castle.

Li Jiping was not angry. He just thought it would be good to let his daughter go out and play with him. After all, there was no danger in Lin Feng's territory.

Although Mrs. Li Zhang cried for two days, she could only hope for Li Xinyan's safe return.

Unexpectedly, Li Xinyan was brave enough to stay in Lingdouzi Castle alone, which made Li Jiping furious.

After Zhang Enyi learned the whole story, he punished his daughter by making her face the wall and reflect on her mistakes for half a year, and she was not allowed to leave the house.

The chief guard Ning Zhen and the guards Zhang Long and Zhang Hu were whipped three times by one person.

One year's punishment.

After Li Jiping got angry, he had no choice but to send his military advisor Shangshu Kai, who was also Li Xinyan's teacher.

He brought Ning Zhen to the Douzi Castle in Zhenxiling to retrieve his daughter Li Xinyan.

When Bai Jing received the report, Li Xinyan had already slipped away on the pretext of having a stomachache.

Lin Feng had known Li Xinyan's identity for a long time, so how could Bai Jing not know it?

At this time, facing Shangshu Kai, he just smiled and invited the two of them to have tea.

"Shang Mou is truly eye-opening. A city like this is comparable to the famous capitals of the imperial dynasties. General Lin is truly extraordinary."

Shangshu Kai really likes the Duilingdouzi Castle.

Such a clean and tidy city, not only is it well-ordered, but the appearance of such a landscape in such a remote place is simply breathtaking.

"Mr. Shang, you're too polite. I just want to make the living environment of the residents better, and I have made some efforts."

"It's more than just hard work. Without an extraordinary vision, how could we build something like this... something like this..."

Shang Shukai couldn't think of any words to describe it.

Bai Jing smiled and nodded: "Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Shang. Please have some tea."

The Minister of the Court coughed and said, "Uh, Chief Steward Bai, my commander-in-chief has a daughter who is very naughty. She came with the delegation last time, but she secretly left the delegation and stayed here. For this, the commander-in-chief was very angry and sent us to look for her. You see..."

Bai Jing smiled and said, "The child has grown up and has his own ideas. Parents should pay more attention to him."

"Yes, yes, the commander-in-chief is usually busy with government affairs and has indeed neglected discipline. I hope Chief Bai will take care of it."

Shangshu Kai kept a very low profile.

"May I know the name of your beloved daughter, the commander-in-chief?"

"Li Xinyan, seventeen years old."

Bai Jing nodded and said, "Okay, if there is any news here, notify Mr. Shang immediately."

"Thank you, Master Steward, for your concern."

Shangshu Kai thanked her repeatedly, and when he saw Bai Jing holding up the teacup, he quickly stood up and said goodbye.

After the two left, Bai Jing stared at the pot of flowers in front of her, lost in thought.

Not long after, Li Xinyan came in cautiously.

"Sister Jing, are they gone?"

Bai Jing looked up at her.

"Li Xinyan, you are so brave."

Li Xinyan stuck out her tongue and smiled.

"Sister Jing, I..."

"I know you like Brother Lin, but you are a royal relative and a lady from a noble family. How can you act like this?"

Bai Jing originally wanted the two of them to have some substantial relationship, but then things would be irreversible.

It was difficult to say anything more to Li Jiping.

However, she discovered that Lin Feng had no such interest in this pretty little girl.

So the matter had to be dropped.

Now that they have come to my door, I can only put on a stern face and pretend I don’t know.

Li Xinyan pouted and twisted her body, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Your family is here to look for you. It's best to go back with them. Otherwise, your father will send troops to arrest you."

Bai Jing deliberately scared her.

Li Xinyan is not stupid. She knows that her plan of making a cooked meal has failed.

Lin Feng has always kept his distance from me.

Although Li Xinyan is proud of her beauty, she has never done anything inappropriate.

"Alas, Brother Lin doesn't like me..."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, tears began to flow from his eyes.

Bai Jing also sighed: "Marriage is a very difficult thing to say. With your conditions, it's impossible not to find a good man."

"But I just like Brother Lin."

Li Xinyan said stubbornly.

"This has to be a matter of mutual consent. Be obedient and go back with your family first. Otherwise, someone will die."

"Ah! Who's going to die?"

Bai Jing glared at her: "Don't you know it yourself?"

"Well, my mother must be very sad."

"You know, there are people here to protect you."

Li Xinyan rolled her eyes and said, "They should be fine. At most they'll get beaten up."

Bai Jing shook her head and smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid this beating will be very difficult to endure."

Li Xinyan was sad for a long time, and finally stopped crying and looked up at Bai Jing.

"Okay, I'm going home. When Brother Lin comes back, tell him that my heart will always...wait for him."

Bai Jing smiled and nodded: "Well, I will tell him."

Li Xinyan opened her arms and threw herself into Bai Jing's arms.

"Sister Jing, I can't bear to leave you either."

Bai Jing patted her back and comforted her.

"Our two countries have opened a trade channel. We welcome you to visit us at any time. But don't sneak away when the time comes."

Li Xinyan nodded: "Okay, Sister Jing, if you have any problems, send someone to Yinzhou to tell me, I can help you."

"Thank you. Change your clothes and I'll take you to the inn."

Bai Jing stroked Li Xinyan's hair and said softly.

After Lin Feng received Bai Jing's message, he didn't say anything. He was not thinking about it.

But it was two other reports that worried him.

One is news from the Tatar camp.

Tie Zhenren changed his commander, and the emperor's younger brother, Wanyan Wuzhi, personally led 20,000 cavalrymen and was approaching the Zhenxi border.

The other one was news from Yinzhou, Xixia.

Tie Zhenren led an army of 20,000 men, who crossed the border of Western Xia and entered the territory of Western Xia.

It not only invaded the counties and towns within Yinzhou, but also affected the canal construction project in the west of the town.

Lin Feng thought that Master Tie really had nothing to eat, and he sent so many troops out to plunder.

It seems that if I don't hurt them, they really don't know how powerful I am.

In the provincial capital, all affairs have been handed over to Wen Cheng and Qin Fang.

With the assistance of Li Hu and Chu Shijie, there should be no problem in controlling the provincial capital and the other three county towns.

I should go back and study carefully how to defeat the Tartar invasion.

Lin Feng sent a message to summon Hu Jincai, Li Donglai and Lin Qiaomei.

Gather your respective teams and set off tomorrow to return to Lingdouzi Castle.

That night, Lin Feng came to Liu Shuxue's small house again to say goodbye to her.

This woman is extraordinary. She is alone in this world, has developed to this point, and can still keep herself clean.

She is a very capable woman.

If used well, it will be a powerful help to your future development.

After a night of passion with Liu Shuxue.

Early the next morning, Lin Feng led his troops on the return journey.

I gained a lot from this trip to the provincial capital.

He unified the entire Zhenxi Protectorate under his name. Obviously, it was only a matter of time to consolidate the Zhenxi base.

Once the Tartars are driven out of the country, I will be the lord of Zhenxi.
