Chapter 253 The Bet (Part Two) (1/2)
After a while, Qi Lang came over with a cold face. A flash of impatience flashed through his eyes, but he hid it quickly. He curtsied to Yun Shang. ”I didn't know you were here. Please forgive me.”
Yun Shang smiled coldly. ”General Qi, you are being too polite. But it seems that you have forgotten the imperial edict for which we came to the KY City earlier. Father sealed me as the inspector, while General Qi hasn't told me about the night attack from the State of Xia. Maybe General Qi wants to... Disobey the decree?”
Qi Lang's face went pale. He fell to his knees and said, ”I don't dare. It happened all of a sudden. I haven't told you yet. Please forgive me.”
Yun Shang felt warm in her heart as she heard the man's words. Fortunately, the General finally admitted that Yun Shang was a supervisor, and not only Lady Jing.
”General Qi is busy in the army. I understand that, so I came here myself. But do you want to talk to me here at the gate?” Yun Shang turned her back and stared at Qi Lang.
Qi Lang stood up at once, ”please, follow me.”
Yun Shang was led to the meeting camp by Qi Lang. There were many men with military uniforms in the camp. Judging from the style of their armor, they should be generals of high rank. And their eyes were fixed on Yun Shang the moment she stepped into the tent.
Qi Lang led Yun Shang to the seat under the host's seat and the guard stood in two lines. He glanced at the five men in black behind Yun Shang and frowned. Then he said to the generals, ”This is your highness, supervisor who was made by his majesty.”

Yun Shang smiled, ”Please don't be courteous. Get up, all of you. I came here just because I heard the Xia army sent four thousand people to attack the barracks. Do you think of ways to defeat the enemy?”
The soldiers looked at each other for a long time, but nobody said a word. Yun Shang was not in a hurry, waiting quietly. After a long time, a man came out and said, ”the Xia army is so shameless. Although only four thousand soldiers were sent for the sneak attack, it also killed eight thousand of our soldiers. It must have a great impact on the military. Therefore, General Qi is going to fight in person and lead the elite forces of our army to pursuit the enemy……”
