Then, he turned around and walked to the main seat.
After that, he learned about the situation at camp.
Li Xiao told them about his experience, as well as the plan.
When everyone heard that the Nangong Army would be able to retreat very quickly and that there were people who could help them, they were all very excited.
“In these two days, use the medicine and herbs 1 brought to treat the injured soldiers. Within two days, we have to make them recover as much as possible.” Li Xiao said in a deep voice.
“Yes, sir!” Mr. Xu replied quickly, his tone a little excited.
Master actually brought medicine?!
As Li Xiao spoke, he glanced at Xiao Yang and then gestured behind the screen.
Xiao Yang understood.
He walked towards the screen.
Sure enough, behind the screen, they saw three large boxes and some medicinal herbs wrapped in paper placed on the three boxes.
With a smile on his face, Xiao Yang waved at the people outside.
“What are you waiting for? Help me move the herbs!” He said.
Everyone rushed over, especially Mr. Xu, who ran the fastest.
Xiao Yang looked at everyone and opened two of the boxes.
In one of them, there were neatly placed sliced medicinal herbs.
The other box was filled with medicine in a porcelain bottle.
Mr. Xu’s face lit up. He rushed forward and squatted down to check.
“Yes, these are the herbs and medicines that I’m looking for!” He said excitedly. “So many! How did you bring them in?” He asked Xiao Yang again.
At this moment, everyone’s faces were filled with joy as they looked at Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang paused.
“We have our ways. Since they are her, just take them and use them. Why ask so much?!” As he spoke, he frowned at Mr. Xu.
Mr. Xu quickly stopped asking.
“Yes, yes, yes! Thank you on behalf of the soldiers.” He stood up and bowed to Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang scratched his head in embarrassment.
“Why are you thanking me? If he wanted to thank someone, you should thank Mistress! She bought all of them with her own money.” He continued.
Everyone was shocked.
That’s right, Master had also mentioned her just now.
He even said that she was here as well, helping them plan their retreat.
“It’s our honor to have a virtuous mistress!” Mr. Xu said first.
The others quickly followed suit and praised Lin Xiaoyue.
Although they hadn’t met Lin Xiaoyue, they were all curious about the new mistress of the Nangong Family.
Although she was born in a peasant family, she was no ordinary.
They could not wait to pay their respects to their mistress…
Not far away, when Li Xiao heard this, he smiled.
Then, he arranged for everyone to do what they needed to do next before letting everyone leave.
After he left, the tent fell silent.
Xiao Yang quickly came up to Li Xiao.
“Why didn’t you ask Deputy General Wang to distribute the 600 sets of cotton-padded clothes?” He asked Li Xiao.
There were more than 500 people in the army who could not leave the tent. If the cotton coats were distributed, there would be no need for anyone to be trapped in the tent.
Li Xiao glanced at Xiao Yang.
“No rush,” he replied.
As he spoke, he frowned.
Of course he wanted to distribute them.
In order to prevent information from being leaked, he had to wait until the last minute to distribute them.
“In a few more days, we will evacuate. For now, we can’t expose our whereabouts.” Thinking of Xiao Yang’s impulsive behavior, Li Xiao added.
Xiao Yang clenched his fist and slammed it on the table. Because he controlled his strength at the last moment, he didn’t make much noise.
Li Xiao was right, the Nangong Army lived right under the eyes of the Imperial Court army.
If they were discovered, not only would the Nangong Army have no hope of retreating, but they would also be in great danger.
Li Xiao raised his head again and glanced at Xiao Yang.
“Now, behave yourself. Before Yue’er’s news comes, you and 1 can’t leave this tent.” He said in a deep voice.
“Yes!” Xiao Yang replied in a low voice.
The next day.
Lin Xiaoyue woke up in a cold bed.
Her body was cold and she was afraid of the cold. Since she left Daishi Village, she did not feel uncomfortable at night because of Li Xiao.
But last night, Li Xiao was not in the room, and the temperature in Hanshan Town was extremely low. Even though there was a charcoal heater in the room and a footwarmer, she did not sleep well.
She didn’t stay in bed. Lin Xiaoyue freshened up and had breakfast.
After that, she asked the receptionist to call Cheng An over.
An hour later, the innkeeper of Fulai Inn brought a manservant to the port of Hanshan Town.
After that, the two of them went to check out the routes that the Nangong Army was preparing to retreat through..
