"How is the situation of the prince?"

In the camp of the Eastern Army, a middle-aged general was walking towards the main tent. Several officers next to him followed him, and one of them said: "It doesn't matter if the prince's injury is, but the prey he had already obtained was gone for nothing. The prince is in a bad mood now. General Ma, I think you are still trying to get the prince's bad luck at this time."

"Do you think I want to do this? But there is nothing I can do. The adopted son of King Jiwu, Hong Lie, is about to arrive. I have to inform the prince to make preparations."

As he spoke, the main account was looking at it. Several doctors came out of the tent. One of them held the clear water from the wooden barrel in his hand and turned into blood. The other one had a blood-stained scarf in his basin, which seemed to be mild.

General Ma frowned and said loudly outside the tent: "Ma Yuan pays homage to the prince."

King Pingxi said in the tent: "Come in."

The sound sounded a little lacking. General Ma quickly uncovered the tent and entered, and there was a scent of medicine in the tent. King Pingxi sat on the seat, picked up a small incense burner and sucked it, asking, "What's the matter?"

General Ma knelt down and said, "Report to the prince, I just received the urgent report. Hong Lie, the son of King Jiwu, is coming with a group of troops, saying that we have been slow to attack, so we sent Hong Lie to support our army."

"Bastard!" King Pingxi held down his five fingers and the incense burner was blown to pieces in his hands. He suddenly stood up and said, "Did that old man, King Jiwu, can't help but want to get a hand into me?"

General Ma hurriedly said, "The prince calms down. The adopted son of King Jiwu, Hong Lie is not weak in combat power. King Jiwu has always been arrogant, and Hong Lie has also developed the same temperament. Since King Jiwu has assigned him here, it is better for us to follow the flow and let King Jiwu's troops fight for us as a vanguard. I think with Hong Lie's temperament, there is no reason to shirk us. Just let him fight with the masters of the barbarian side. If both sides are injured, wouldn't it be a good thing?"

King Pingxi frowned. If he had been a normal person, he would have scolded Ma Yuan half to death. But last night he had fought with Angeloni, and the opponent's desperate fight made him feel scared. At this time, Ma Yuan's proposal was quite in line with his wishes. After walking back and forth a few steps, King Pingxi nodded and said, "Okay, I was injured and needed to rest for several days, so let King Jiwu take the lead for me. I want to see how capable that Hong Lie is, because he is afraid that he will not be able to win the face of King Jiwu, but instead he will make the old guy look sad."

Ma Yuan smiled and said, "If this is the case, it can even reduce the might of King Wu."

"Just do it like that."

This matter was settled.

Dawn Castle.

"That's how things happened."

In the study, after listening to a dark blade's report, Edward nodded and said, "I didn't expect that this Anne had such combat power and stopped King Pingxi. If she was willing to take action, then our battle would be easier next."

"Where is she now?"

"On the Bauhinia Collar, Lord Orlando was also recovering from his wounds."

Edward stood up and said, "Next, the Bauhinia Corps will become a front-line battlefield. I originally wanted to go there, but now it's just right. Go and prepare, I'll go to the Bauhinia Corps. In any case, I have to convince Anne."

That being said, Edward knew it was not that simple to convince a strong man with a combat power comparable to the Ten Saints. Even if Annie agreed, the conditions she offered would be harsh. But at this time, it would be worth it to win over a strong man with a Ten Saints' fighting power, no matter what the conditions were.

A moment later a convoy was ready.

When Edward walked out of the lord's mansion to get in the car, he was stopped. It was Ruola, who came over with two maids. Edward waved his hand and asked the people next to him to retreat. Ruola said, "Earl, I heard something happened to Orlando?"

"Don't worry, Lord Orlando just suffered some minor injuries, it doesn't matter." Edward smiled.

Ruola nodded and said, "I just received the news. I heard that a woman named Anne saved him?"

"Yes, I'm going to the Bauhinia Colonel now to meet this Miss Anne. If I get her help, it will be beneficial to our next war."

"No, what I care about is why the Earl did not send someone to rescue Orlando, but an outsider took action?" Jora said in a deep voice.

Edward looked at her and said softly: "Ms. Jora, such accusation is too severe. Last night, the Panlong Empire's pursuit of Lord Orlando was very secret. By the time I received the news, Miss Anne had already rescued the Lord. In fact, I was still curious about how Miss Anne learned about Lord Orlando. This time I went there to understand this doubt."

These words were half true and half false, and if you can't find any flaws, he said immediately: "Then please tell me, if Miss Anne was not available, would the Earl send someone to rescue Orlando?"

Edward smiled and said, "Isn't this obvious? Whether it is your husband or the son of the Marquis of Iron Gun, no matter which identity it is, it is worth my full efforts to rescue Lord Orlando. Ms. Jora, please believe me. Although I can't say how honest I am, I know that some things must be done."

Ruola nodded: "Okay, I believe in you. I'll bother you, Earl."

"If you can untie your knots, it is more important than anything else."

After saying that, Edward got into the car.

The horse team was getting farther away, but Ruolah's face was extremely gloomy. A maid next to him said, "Madam, what's wrong with you?"

"I can't believe that man." Jora shook his head and said, "He is different from Allen. He has so many secrets in his eyes. He is a man who scares me."

"So?"

"I have to send a message to the Iron Gun Corps and use our channels."

In the carriage, Edward unveiled the curtain and a dark blade came to the side. Edward said: "Notify our people to block all information channels and pay special attention to the news going to the Iron Gun Corner. If you find it, stop it immediately and hand it over to me as soon as possible."

"As for orders, sir."

Putting down the curtains, Edward rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Don't make trouble for me at this time, Ms. Jorah."

Bauhinia collar.

"I've agreed, Hana, can you move a little faster? I'm sitting down and falling asleep."

In a room, Hana was cleaning up the wounds for Angeloni. When fighting with King Pingxi, this woman completely ignored the opponent's attacks, and even had many wounds on her body. Even Hana, who was a mercenary, had been born and died for countless years, but she still frowned when she saw the wounds on Angeloni.

"If you want to hurry, don't move around, Miss Anne, I want to finish it soon."

Angelone, who was holding a bottle of wine in one hand, shrugged and said, "Blame me?"

At this time someone knocked on the door, and a gentle voice rang out: "I'm Orlando, is Miss Anne here?"
