He was clearly worried about the other party, but one of them was silent. The other was polite and seemed gentle on the surface, but he was actually clear and decisive.

The corners of Xiao Qirui’s mouth twitched. When he thought of Yuan Yuwan, a melancholic expression appeared on his face. He said, “Since you know so much, teach me when we return to Chang’an.”

Song Jingchen suspected that he had heard wrongly because of the noise outside. Was this what the Xiao Qirui he knew would say?

Realizing what he had said, Xiao Qirui coughed lightly. “I just said that since you know so much, it seems that you were the one who coaxed Sister-in-law.”

Song Jingchen raised his eyebrows. It was true that they were inseparable, but it was clearly that girl who was pestering him endlessly in the beginning. He was the one being…

Their conversation lasted only a few breaths before another collision sounded.

Song Jingchen slapped Xiao Qirui’s hand away and said solemnly, “Cover me. This is a military order.”

Xiao Qirui wanted to point out that His Majesty didn’t confer Song Jingchen as the commander-in-chief, but Song Jingchen’s official position was indeed higher than his. He could only shake his head and say helplessly, “Then I’ll disobey this military order today. If I’m lucky enough to return alive, you can punish me according to the military rules.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he snatched the sword from the soldier at the side and raised his hand to grab the rope lock hanging from the bridge. He opened his mouth to instruct someone to raise the bridge.

His wrist was suddenly grabbed. Song Jingchen pulled him off and pushed him in front of the two soldiers. He instructed indifferently, “Keep an eye on him.”

“General Xiao, I’m sorry.”

Although the soldier was puzzled, he still grabbed Xiao Qirui’s hands tightly.

Xiao Qirui struggled a few times but couldn’t break free. He couldn’t kill anyone, so he could only roar angrily, “Song Jingchen, come back.”

Song Jingchen ignored him. Unexpectedly, just as he raised his hand, a familiar voice sounded behind him.

“Hubby.”

Song Jingchen suddenly turned around and saw Shen Yijia holding a huge bow in her arms and carrying an arrow basket filled with arrows on her back. She was leaning against the wall and panting heavily.

Before he could speak, he sensed something and rushed over to pull her into his arms. “Be careful.”

In the next moment, an arrow accurately flew up from where Shen Yijia had been leaning against just now and hit the wall behind her. It landed with a crisp clang.

Seeing this, Xiao Qirui heaved a sigh of relief and said with a dark expression, “Let go.”

The two soldiers looked at each other and did not move.

Xiao Qirui’s heart skipped a beat. “The Duchess is already here. Do you need me to stop him?”

The two soldiers looked at Song Jingchen and finally let go when they saw that he didn’t object.

How could they know that it wasn’t that Song Jingchen didn’t object, but that he was focused on checking if Shen Yijia was injured?

Shen Yijia let him examine her. After that, she pretended to be afraid and patted her chest. She was about to praise her husband for being amazing.

She looked up and met Song Jingchen’s dark face.

Shen Yijia thought to herself, “Oh my god, I forgot that my beautiful husband didn’t let me come to the city tower.”

“Nonsense. This place is so dangerous. Is it something you can come to?” After confirming that Shen Yijia was not injured, Song Jingchen scolded her. He wanted to say something else, but when he saw Shen Yijia’s face fall, he couldn’t bear it anymore.

“Sister-in-law, why did you run so…” Song Jinghuan chased after her, panting. When she noticed her brother’s gaze, she silently hid behind Shen Yijia.

She couldn’t be blamed. She had advised her sister-in-law not to come to the city tower.

Her so-called advice was to tell Shen Yijia how despicable Han Tong was, how hateful he was, and how difficult it was to kill him.

In the end, it successfully aroused Shen Yijia’s fighting spirit and she rushed here quickly.

Song Jingchen sighed and summoned two soldiers. “Send Madam back to

General Xiao’s residence.”

“And you, if you’ve recovered, go back to your military camp.”

The last sentence was directed at Song Jinghuan.

He finally understood that this girl was most likely the one who urged Jiajia to come to the city tower.

He might as well just trust that Jiajia would stay at home obediently instead of asking the girl to watch over her.

Song Jinghuan thought to herself, “I’m not angry. It’s not worth it to be angry.

“I’m not going back.” Shen Yijia retreated from Song Jingchen’s arms.

She pursed her lips. She wanted to be angry, but she remembered that her beautiful husband was concerned about her. She would forgive him this once.

After all, she was an understanding wife.

‘You…”

Shen Yijia pointed at the huge bow in her arms. “I’m here to help you.”

A general who had seen a black iron bow and tried to pick it up but failed happened to look over. He was first stunned by Shen Yijia’s appearance. He looked down and saw the bow in her arms. He was so shocked that his mouth fell open. “General Gao’s black iron bow!”

His words successfully attracted the attention of many people for Shen Yijia.

Those who had seen the black iron bow had the same reaction as him. Those who had not seen it only took a glance before returning their gazes to the battlefield.

Xiao Qirui looked at the black iron bow and asked hesitantly, “Are you saying that this bow is the black iron bow that General Gao spent ten years crafting?” He had never seen the black iron bow, but he had heard of this matter.

It was not easy for General Gao to forge a huge bow, but in the end, he realized that he could not even lift it. He even asked all the soldiers in the army to take turns to try, but no one succeeded.

After all, it was one of the few jokes in General Gao’s life, so the news quickly spread among the generals.

After knowing that he had been laughed at, he even said that he would be able to pick it up one day. Unfortunately, in a few years…

“That’s right. I even tried to carry it back then. There’s no way I’m mistaken.” The general looked certain.

Song Jingchen glanced at Shen Yijia and reached for the bow.

Shen Yijia took a step back and tiptoed to whisper in his ear, “Are you afraid of losing face?”

There were so many people watching. As her husband, he would be embarrassed if he couldn’t pick up something that his wife could.

Song Jingchen was speechless.

“General, our city gate can’t hold on much longer.” A soldier ran over anxiously to report.

No matter how shocked the other generals were, they did not dare to continue standing here and dispersed.

Song Jingchen looked at Shen Yijia. “Jiajia, go back first.”

“No, as I said, I’m here to help you.”

She also knew that the situation was urgent, so she didn’t give Song Jingchen a chance to speak again. She continued, “I heard that Han Tong is the general who commands the Wu Kingdom’s army to attack the city. If we kill him, the Wu Kingdom’s army will definitely fall into chaos.”

Song Jingchen shook his head. “Han Tong is at the back of the camp and is protected by the ironclad army. Not to mention that it’s impossible for an arrow to shoot so far, even if it could, it wouldn’t be able to penetrate layers of shields.”

“Sure.” Before he could finish, Shen Yijia took out an arrow from the arrow basket behind her. “This is an arrow made of black iron.”

Song Jingchen was stunned.
