Xiaoyu looked at the tired and shriveled Li Yu and said to Yangyang with heartache, “Young Master, go play with Xiao Bai and Dahua with Brother Seven Pounds. Let Madam eat something and wash up.”

Yangyang looked at Li Yu and nodded. “Mother, eat well. I’m going to play with

Brother Seven Pounds.”

“Go! Good boy.” Li Yu touched his bag and put him down. She watched the two of them run to the back garden hand in hand.

“Madam, Gu Yu, Xing Hua, and the others have all gone to the house over there to help dig up the corn. Ji Xiang came back and fell asleep after eating porridge. Granny Liu made lean meat porridge for you. Go and eat some porridge before sleeping well.”

“Alright.” Li Yu glanced at Xiaoyu’s stomach. “Is the child obedient? Are you tired?”

“I’m not tired.” Xiaoyu smiled and shook her head. Old Madam Liu happily placed the porridge and side dishes. “Madam, you must be hungry! Hurry up and drink some porridge. I’ll get you a bath.”

“Alright.” Li Yu drank the porridge and washed up briefly. She returned to the house and lay on the bed. A familiar smell came from the tip of her nose. She relaxed and fell asleep.

Shen Hui led his men to retreat to a mountain beam below. They could still see the burning fire. This time, the mountain fire burned for a few days before it was extinguished by sleet.

Ruyi came out of the Four Seas Bank and went to West City but could not find Zhou Jia. Mr. Qian told him that Zhou Jia had been invited back to the government office by Lord Wu.

Just as Zhou Jia returned to the government office, Wu Tingxian went up to him in a panic. “Sir, bad news. General Ouyang sent an urgent report. The Qi army’s strength suddenly doubled in the wee hours of the morning. Linshan City was attacked by the Qi army and the county magistrate of Linshan County died. The Yunzhou Prefecture immediately prepared for war and asked us to start recruiting commoners to move rolling wooden stones to the city wall. There are also doctors from various pharmaceutical shops who have to be recruited. Do you think General Shen was the one who set off the wildfire over the past few days? I think those Qi people saw that they couldn’t go through Mount Spindle, so they transferred their troops to Linshan to attack with all their might.” Wu Tingxian sighed. “Sigh! Even the Qingzhou Prefecture is fighting. The Qi people are coming aggressively!”

When Zhou Jia heard this, he recalled that Li Yu, Ji Xiang, and Sir had yet to return to the city. He was extremely worried and said in a low voice, “It’s useless even if we’re worried. We’ll deal with whatever comes our way. When the time comes, we’ll have a way to deal with it. Do the recruitment of migrant workers and doctors first. Every family has to send a person between the age of

16 and 50.”

“Yes, sir.” Wu Ting glanced at Zhou Jia after agreeing. He suddenly realized that Zhou Jia had suddenly lost a lot of weight these days. He looked at Zhou Jia worriedly. “Sir, did you encounter any difficulties? I only realized today that you’ve lost a lot of weight!”

Zhou Jia cupped his hands at Wu Tingxian. “Thank you for your concern. I’m fine. I just don’t have a good appetite. Tell General Ouyang that we’ll cooperate with him fully.”

“Yes, sir.” Wu Ting left first. Ruyi rushed to Zhou Jia’s room from outside. Seeing that Zhou Jia was rubbing his temples and working, he shouted excitedly, ‘Master, Madam and Ji Xiang are back. Old Master is still not back.”

Zhou Jia held the pen and looked at Ruyi in a daze for a few breaths before coming back to his senses. He held the pen and ran towards the back office. Ruyi watched as Zhou Jia ran away like a gust of wind. He smiled and pulled the door closed, muttering to himself, “Madam is back, and Master is alive.”

Zhou Jia ran to the courtyard. Gu Yu sat at the door of the main room and said to him with a smile, “Master, you’re back! Madam is already back and is asleep.”

Zhou Jia nodded and gently pushed open the door to enter the room. He sat on the edge of the bed and looked at his sleeping wife in a daze. He leaned down and kissed her forehead. The huge rock in his heart was instantly relieved. Only then did he realize that he was still holding the pen tightly in his hand. He shook his head and smiled. Only then did he remember that he still had to go and see how Wu Tingxian was recruiting workers and doctors. He looked back at Li Yu reluctantly before gently closing the door and leaving.

When Chu Sihai received the letter from Shen Shuo, he hurriedly took it and sent it to Ouyang, who was guarding the garrison office. The two of them saw that Shen Shuo’s letter said that Yang Rui had been killed as a spy for the Qi people. They planned to take advantage of the winter weather to burn the Qi soldiers to death in the dense forest and let Deputy General Ouyang take over from him after receiving the letter and order the three armies to guard Yunzhou to the death and not let the Qi people enter Yunzhou.

Chu Sihai thought of the mountain fire that had just been extinguished on Mount Spindle and felt a deep respect for Shen Shuo. He looked at the letter on the table and said, “Members of the Shen family are indeed close to His Majesty. They are indeed loyal and brave, not afraid of death.”

General Ouyang was extremely sad when he thought of the 3,000 soldiers perishing with the Qi soldiers on Mount Spindle. He put Shen Shuo’s letter away respectfully and said to it, “General, I accept your order. I swear that I will keep the city safe.”

Chu Sihai looked at the tall and heroic General Ouyang with admiration. “General Ouyang, with loyal soldiers like you and General Shen in Great Yong, we will definitely chase the Qi people out of Great Yong.”

General Ouyang looked at Chu Sihai and said to him, “Shopkeeper Chu, I don’t believe that all the soldiers have died in the sea of fire. Please send someone to see if there are any surviving soldiers on the mountain. Also, Madam is still waiting for news from General Shen. Shopkeeper Chu, please take General Shen’s letter to Madam. I’ll go up the city wall to inspect.”

“Alright, I’ll send someone over now.” Chu Sihai cupped his fists and agreed. He went out and rode his horse toward General Shen’s residence.

General Ouyang arrived at the top of the city wall. At this moment, the entire city was on guard. There were soldiers everywhere at the top and bottom of the city wall. General Ouyang looked at the generals of the three armies standing at the top and bottom of the city wall and raised his arms to shout, “Soldiers of the three armies, the Qi people tried to pass through Mount Spindle to ambush us. The mountain fire a few days ago was caused by our General Shen leading his soldiers to take a risk. He ignited the kerosene and burned the forest to perish with the Qi soldiers. Now that the lives of General Shen and the 3,000 soldiers are unknown, do you have the confidence to defend Yunzhou City and protect the country?”

The soldiers of the three armies shouted in unison, “Protect Yunzhou, protect the country, protect Yunzhou, protect the country!” The soldiers’ inspiring shouts pierced through the clouds.

Liu Yi and Mr. Qian went to each pharmacy and informed them about the recruitment of doctors during the war. When the shopkeeper of the pharmacy heard this, he frowned and said, “There are doctors in the army! Why should we help?”

Liu Yi was so angry that he slammed the knife on the cabinet. He looked at him and asked, “Shopkeeper Luo, those soldiers fought in front to protect you. They asked you to treat their injuries. Can’t you do it?”

The shopkeeper of the Dharmacv trembled in fear and hurriedlv came out from

behind the cabinet. He bowed and smiled awkwardly. “Constable Liu, I was just saying. Don’t worry, my physician will definitely go.”

Mr. Qian glanced at the shopkeeper of the pharmacy who was smiling awkwardly. After taking out a piece of paper and registering it, he asked him to press his fingerprint. He looked at him and said righteously, “Shopkeeper Luo, if everyone is like you, can Yunzhou City still be defended? If Yunzhou City can’t defend against the Qi Dynasty, where will you escape to when the Qi Dynasty massacres the city?”

Shopkeeper Luo kept cupping his hands. “Sir is right. I understand.” Mr. Qian and Liu Yi came out of the pharmacy and rushed to another medical center.

Chu Sihai sent a secret guard out of the city to Mount Spindle to look for survivors. He hesitated for a moment and thought to himself, I should wait for the secret guard to locate the people before telling Madam Mu.. If General Shen is lucky enough to escape the sea of fire, won’t I make Madam Mu sad for nothing?
