Chapter 238: Beautiful Husband, I’m Here

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

In Xunyang City, the soldiers were lying on their backs in exhaustion on the city wall.

Many of them were still injured, but they were all smiling.

It had been more than a month since the Hun army arrived at the border. Not only did they have to starve, but they also had to be afraid all day. This was the first time he felt so relieved.

Although the Hun army outside had only retreated for ten kilometers, it was still a ray of hope for them.

“I was wondering why you gathered the people to set up a net for no reason in the middle of the night. I didn’t expect you to be waiting for this.” The general who spoke pointed at the net hanging above and gave them a thumbs up. “You’re really something.”

“We didn’t think of that. We had someone to guide us.” Meng Jiang waved his hand modestly.

“Oh? When did our city have such an expert?” the man asked curiously.

Zuo Fei, who had been standing at the side, suddenly said, “Alright, let’s get someone to repair the damaged net first. The Xiongnu army suffered a setback this time, but I’m afraid it won’t be so easy to deal with them next time.”

With that, he strode away.

“This guy, seriously…” Meng Jiang pointed with his hand and turned around to follow.

Uncle Yang was telling Shangguan Han what Song Jingchen had heard about the Huns.

Suddenly, someone reported from outside the door, “Your Highness, there’s a group of people outside the city who want to enter the city. They said that they’re here to look for you. General Meng is worried that it’s a plot of the Huns, so he doesn’t dare to let them open the city gate.”

If these people had come a few hours earlier or yesterday, they probably wouldn’t have been able to approach the city gate. How could such a coincidence happen as soon as the Huns retreated?

Moreover, the Huns were retreating. How did they avoid the army and approach the city gate?

Shangguan Han stopped talking and looked at Uncle Yang. He muttered, “Could it be that Cousin brought people back? That’s impossible. If it’s Cousin, they would have opened the city gate…”

Uncle Yang thought of One Dot and the others who had been sent by Song Jingchen to look for the little prince. He hurriedly said, “Your Highness, I’ll go out and take a look.”

When Shangguan Han saw his expression, he wanted to follow him out. He suddenly thought of something and sat back down.

Uncle Yang followed the young general to the city gate and quickly climbed up the city wall.

When he stuck his head out, he saw a group of travel-worn people outside the city. The most eye-catching thing was that there was a big tiger beside the leader of the group.

Among the Mahjong Brothers, he had only seen One Dot and Thirty Thousand, so he did not know if the people below were them.

He thought for a moment and wanted to ask who it was.

Unexpectedly, a voice sounded from below.

“Uncle Yang, Uncle Yang. It’s me. I’m here to look for my husband. Is my husband inside?” Shen Yijia sat on the horse and shouted at the top of her lungs. She even waved her hand vigorously.

That dream made her feel uneasy, so she wanted to quickly confirm if Song Jingchen was in the city.

Speaking of which, it was all thanks to Furball that they could avoid the Hun army so easily.

South Wind’s lips twitched when he heard this.

When Uncle Yang heard this voice, his vision darkened and he almost fell off the city wall. Eldest Young Master had never mentioned that Young Madam was coming.

However, he still took out a token and instructed loudly, “Quick, open the city gate.”

In the city, he was recognized as the strategist of Lord An Le and often followed Lord An Le. Everyone was familiar with him.

Although they were curious about who the husband of the man below was, no one dared to gossip about him to Uncle Yang.

The heavy gates lowered slowly.

Shen Yijia frowned. Uncle Yang had yet to tell her if Song Jingchen was inside. If he wasn’t, would she be able to come out?

Just as she was about to ask again, South Wind suddenly rode to her side and whispered, “Master might still be in the city.”

Actually, regardless of whether Song Jingchen was here or not, it was best for Young Madam not to run around.

Shen Yijia thought about it and agreed. In addition, there were so many people watching from the city wall, so it was not appropriate for her to stay here.

They rode into the city and the gates closed again.

Ah Xun had been riding with Rooster the entire time. When he saw the city gate open so easily, he glanced at Shen Yijia with a complicated expression before turning around and burying his face in Rooster’s arms.

Rooster watched him and snickered, but he didn’t push him away.

Because of Furball’s existence, no one dared to approach and ask questions.

Shen Yijia patiently followed Uncle Yang back to the palace. When there were no outsiders around, she asked again, “Uncle Yang, where’s my husband?”

Uncle Yang was silent. Thinking of Shen Yijia’s personality, he said vaguely, “Young Master is busy now. Young Madam, I’ll arrange for someone to bring you to take a shower and freshen up. Otherwise, if Young Master sees you like this…”

Uncle Yang covered his nose and looked at the man in front of him with a complicated expression. He had never seen such a sloppy woman in his life.

Shen Yijia looked down at herself and fell silent.

She didn’t remember when was the last time she had a bath.

She scratched her head awkwardly.

Her hair was knotted. It hurt.

If her beautiful husband saw her like this…

When Shen Yijia thought of that scene, she felt terrible.

She stood up abruptly, even forgetting her worries about Song Jingchen.

She only wanted to prevent her beautiful husband from seeing her current appearance.

“I want a bath!” she yelled.

Uncle Yang held back his laughter. Young Madam was indeed still that Young Madam. She was easy to fool.

He quickly called a servant over and instructed him. The servant immediately left.

The servants in the residence acted quickly. In less than ten minutes, a maidservant came to report that the water was ready.

Shen Yijia was about to follow the maidservant when Furball, Mo Yuan, Ah Xun, and Rooster subconsciously stood up and followed.

After a few steps, they realized that something was wrong.

They were really used to it.

Shen Yijia turned around and looked at the three of them in confusion. She thought for a moment and said to Uncle Yang, “Get someone to bring them to take a shower too.”

She glanced at the pitiful Furball and added, “Oh, right. Give Furball a bath too.”

It was unbearably smelly.

At this moment, Uncle Yang’s attention was all on Ah Xun. He only reacted when South Wind coughed lightly and hurriedly said, “It’s all ready.”

Ah Xun glanced at South Wind and Uncle Yang meaningfully and raised his eyebrows.

South Wind did not expect things to be so coincidental. The two people they were looking for were actually together.

Thinking of One Dot, who was still looking for them outside, he quickly arranged for someone to find One Dot.

Shen Yijia followed the maidservant to the bathroom and sent out the person who was about to serve her. It took her two hours to wash up.

When she came out, her face was red from the heat. If not for the fact that she still wanted to see Song Jingchen, she would have fallen asleep in the bathtub.

When the maidservants guarding the door saw her come out, they were all stunned.

She had let her black hair fall over her shoulders and was wearing a colorful dress. The fiery red flower bud on her forehead was the finishing touch. She was so beautiful that she did not look like a mortal.

Was this the same person who had entered just now?

Shen Yijia blinked and wanted to ask if they could help her tie her hair into a beautiful bun.

Suddenly, there was a commotion.

Shen Yijia’s eyes lit up and she ran out like the wind.

Beautiful husband, I’m here!
