Chapter 204: Whether to Go to The Front
Translator: Madesmoiselle V.
“What are you doing, Murong Ji?” A wild roar resounded in the air.
Following the voice, Murong Xue saw Murong Ji standing in the corridor nearby. He was holding a beautiful girl’s hand with their ten fingers interlocked, showing great intimacy.
Yuan Fangfei dashed towards them angrily and separated them with all her strength. The delicate girl was pushed away and knocked against the column after taking three, or four steps back. “Ah!” She let out a painful cry.
“Miss Liu!” Murong Ji exclaimed in panic as he rushed forward to check on her. However, with his arm seized fast by Yuan Fangfei, Murong Ji couldn’t move at all. He glared at Yuan Fangfei and barked a question at her. “Yuan Fangfei, what did you just do?”
“That’s my question for you!” Yuan Fangfei stared at him condescendingly and reproached him in rage, “You dared to seduce other girls while I was busy killing enemies in the air.”
“Nonsense! We were hiding in the same shelter during the attack. I saw her injured by the enemies, thus inconvenient to walk. I just helped her by holding her arm, which has nothing to do with seduction. Don’t think of others in terms of your own desires.” With his eyes filled with rage and contempt, Murong Ji interrupted her harshly.
“How dare you talk to me like that!” Yuan Fangfei said with a faint smile, as she suddenly raised her hands and assaulted Murong Ji viciously. “Seeing is believing. You did ogle her with great intimacy. This is what you asked for!”
Yuan Fangfei gave him a good beat with her palms, like numerous raindrops pounding his skin. Her moves were driven by inner force, giving Murong Ji no chance to defend. He howled due to the ache all over his body, gritting his teeth, “Yuan Fangfei, I’m breaking off our engagement!”
“Stop being delusional! You have seen me naked. Stop thinking about dumping me and marrying other women!” Yuan Fangfei retorted harshly while infusing more strength to her palm. He was digging his own grave with the vain attempt of breaking off their engagement!
Stricken by Yuan Fangfei continuously, Murong Ji felt sharp pain all over his body. He squatted on the ground in a huddle with his head buried in his hand and let out a cry. “You are killing me.”
“It doesn’t matter. I don’t mind being a widow!” Yuan Fangfei said slowly while infusing more power to her palms.
Murong Ji was nearly suffocated by the sharp pain. “It’s my fault, it’s all my fault. Please stop.” He was begging Yuan Fangfei’s pardon urgently.
“It’s too late for an apology!” Yuan Fangfei said in rage. She knocked Murong Ji to the ground and watched him roll down the stairs.
Seeing Murong Ji’s blood-stained nose and swollen face, Murong Xue raised her head and let out a sigh. What a shrew Yuan Fangfei was! Having such a wife, Murong Ji would certainly keep his distance with all other women.
Leaning against the column in the corridor, Miss Liu stared blankly at Yuan Fangfei and Murong Ji in the one-sided fight. Her pretty face turned ghastly pale.
Murong Xue frowned at the bumpy and messy ground beside Miss Liu.
“What’s wrong?” Ouyang Shaochen stared at her in confusion.

“I’m just thinking about my elder brother. As the subordinate of general Zhang, is he going to Nan Jiang with other soldiers?” Murong Xue said in a low-pitched voice with a meaningful stare.
“Miss Murong is unwilling to let her brother go to the front!” Qin Yuyan curved her eyebrow upward in contempt.
“Of course not. I am merely a little worried!” Murong Xue retorted.
Murong Ye has just been in the army for less than two months, and his martial skills as well as swordsmanship aren’t coordinated yet. It would be dangerous for him to confront the enemies on the battlefield now.
“There is no point in merely being concerned. You’d better find a way to keep him away from the battlefield. I know with your intelligence, you will surely succeed.” Qin Yuyan giggled as her eyes were filled with bare contempt.
As a soldier, Murong Ye has the obligation of following his general’s order. If Murong Ye fled on the eve of the battle, he would be committing a cardinal sin in the army, and his reputation would be ruined. As for Murong Xue, who helped his elder brother out for her own sake, would surely be sneered for her selfishness.
Qin Yuyan was undoubtedly plotting against her.
With a snort in disdain, Murong Xue glanced at her in coldness. “Thanks for your kindness. As a soldier, my elder brother has to shoulder the responsibility of protecting his country. It is up to general Zhang whether he will go to the battlefield, and I won’t intervene!”
“I heard that your elder brother is only fourteen years old. Given his poor martial skills and experience in warfare, it is possible that he may be seriously wounded or slayed by enemies. In that case, it’s highly likely that your father will have no offspring.” Qin Yuyan let out a sigh with her eyes filled with sorrow.
“How visionary you are, Your Highness! However, has it ever occurred to you that my elder brother is no more than a common soldier who won’t confront masters in the battle. He will be safe if he is careful enough, or perhaps, he will even achieve a military exploit, and get promoted as a low-ranking military officer.” Murong Xue, raising her eyebrows, stared at Qin Yuyan with light in her eyes.
“You are right, but if…” Qin Yuyan smiled radiantly.
“There is no if. We only have top-level warriors in our family. We definitely won’t die in the first warfare we attend. We are not as foolish as someone, who always gets herself wounded before the war begins.” Murong Xue, with a faint smile on her face, held Qin Yuyan in contempt.
Being wordless, Qin Yuyan was burnt with fury. Was Murong Xue sneering at her foolishness and incapability? Damn…
Ignoring her anger, Murong Xue turned to look straight ahead.
Ouyang Shaochen approached her and said, “Do you want to go back to the capital or stay here for a few days, Xue?”
Murong Xue looked around and saw that the majority of the ministers and their families had already left, except for dozens of guards walking about, clearing up the mess.
Cang Qiong’s wooden snake army only attacked the square, leaving the summer resort and the scenery at the back hill intact. It would suffice to continue their relaxation here.
However, following the emperor’s order, Murong Ye would probably go to Nan Jiang with the army at any time. Nobody knew when he would return. It would be better if Murong Xue met him as soon as possible before they set off.
“Let’s return to the capital!”
“Okay!” With a nod, Ouyang Shaochen took Murong Xue’s hand and stepped forward slowly.
