After entering the tent, Song Jingchen turned around and looked at the group of people who followed him in.

This naturally included Song Jinghuan. She looked at Shen Yijia for help.

The corners of Shen Yijia’s mouth twitched. Logically speaking, she should have pleaded for mercy, but…

She glanced at Song Jingchen’s dark face and knew that he was furious this time. She shook her head helplessly.

“I’m sorry, Little Huanhuan. I can help with other things, but it won’t be good if my beautiful husband is angry.” she thought.

Song Jinghuan thought to himself, “Aren’t you the most powerful sister-in-law?”

Song Jingchen saw her small actions and asked coldly, “Did you report what happened today to General Xiao?”

Song Jinghuan said guiltily, “No.”

“Then do you know how to deal with military rules for disobeying military orders and acting on your own?”

Song Jinghuan was shocked. “Big Brother…’

“Say it.”

Song Jinghuan bit her lip. “If the situation is serious, he should be executed.”

This time, it was Shen Yijia’s turn to be shocked. She thought that it would at most be a small corporal punishment or a few hundred words from Sister Huan. She did not expect it to be so serious.

“Hubby.” Shen Yijia opened her mouth to plead for mercy, but Song Jingchen beat her to it. “It seems that you know the military rules.”

Song Jinghuan knelt down with a thud. “What happened today was my idea alone. They’re all following orders. If you want to kill someone, kill me alone.” Sun Hao and the others hurriedly knelt down. “Bulwark Duke, we…” “Shut up, all of you,” Song Jinghuan warned.

Xiao Qirui coughed lightly. “Fortunately, they didn’t cause irreparable consequences. Why don’t we give them a small punishment?”

How could he not understand? If Song Jingchen really wanted to kill them, he wouldn’t have brought them into the tent to talk about this.

“Hubby.” Shen Yijia secretly tugged at Song Jingchen’s sleeve.

Song Jingchen said indifferently, “Since General Xiao is pleading on your behalf, each of you will receive 15 strokes of the cane.”

Song Jinghuan straightened her neck and said, “This has nothing to do with them. It was all my idea. You…”

“Sister Huan,” Shen Yijia interrupted her.

Song Jinghuan turned his head away aggrievedly.

Seeing her like this, Song Jingchen knew that she still hadn’t realized her mistake. The anger that he had suppressed rose again. He sneered and said, “Do you think you’re very noble? But have you ever thought that what you did today almost killed them all?”

Song Jinghuan froze.

Song Jingchen continued, “As a general, you should set an example and restrain your subordinates, but you took the lead in fooling around. If everyone imitated you, why would we still need this military rule?”

“Go and collect 30 strokes. From today onwards…” He looked deeply at Song Jinghuan. ‘You’ll join the cooks.”

Those were the soldiers who were in charge of cooking. They usually did not have the chance to go to the battlefield. Although it was relatively safe compared to other soldiers, they could not kill the enemy if they could not go to the battlefield. If they could not kill the enemy, they would not have the chance to contribute. They could be considered the inferior-class soldiers.

Xiao Qirui was stunned. No matter what, she’s still your sister. Isn’t this a little too ruthless?

‘General Xiao,” Song Jingchen reminded him.

The corners of Xiao Qirui’s mouth twitched, and he waved his hand for Xiao Li to call for help.

Soon, Xiao Li came in with a team of soldiers. “Carry out the punishment outside,” Song Jingchen said.

“Yes.”

The sound of the military staff hitting flesh could be heard one after another.

Shen Yijia stole a glance at Song Jingchen and wanted to go out and take a look.

“Don’t go.” Song Jingchen rubbed his eyebrows tiredly.

Seeing him like this, Shen Yijia did not know if her heart ached for him or Sister Huan.

Her beautiful husband would definitely not feel good about personally giving the order to punish his sister, but…

Sister Huan was still so young. How could she withstand thirty strikes?

“That girl doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. If we don’t teach her a lesson, she won’t take it to heart. We happened to make it this time. What about next time?” Song Jingchen didn’t dare to think about it.

Shen Yijia knew that he was determined. She winked at Xiao Qirui

“Ahem, I’ve already gotten someone to transport the two wooden kites in. I’ll go take a look.” He found an excuse to leave.

Song Jingchen saw the conflict within their eyes and sighed helplessly.

As soon as he left the tent, he saw ten people lying in a row being punished. Xiao Qirui originally wanted to remind them to mind their manners, but when he noticed who was holding the military staff beside Song Jinghuan, the corners of his mouth twitched.

Alright, there was no need for him anymore.

“Ouch…

“Young Master, did your wound open again?” Xiao Li held him worriedly. “Let me help you back and bandage it again.”

Xiao Qirui glanced at him. “Back to where?”

“Back to your tent…” Xiao Li paused and suggested, “Why don’t we go to my tent first?”

“There’s no need. I’ll go and take a look at the two wooden kites.”

If it was really that magical, it might be able to be used in the army..
