When everyone saw Li Chen arrive, they immediately bowed respectfully.

"Wu Qingcang smiled bitterly: 'I didn't expect to have disturbed Your Highness.'"

"It's not disturbing."

Li Chen waved his hand and said, "This palace was also planning to come over and talk to you."

Li Chen came alone, followed only by Su Pingbei.

This detail eased the minds of many generals.

This represented the prince's absolute trust in them.

Whether intentional or unintentional, the feeling of being trusted by someone is always a good thing.

Li Chen looked at Wang Dazhao, lingering for a moment on that rough face, then his gaze swept over the other generals before he said, “Someone just asked, who can guarantee they will definitely win This palace answered, this palace can guarantee it.”

Wang Dachao blurted out, “Your Highness, what makes you think so”

"Wang Da zhao!"

Wu Qingcang turned his head and shouted fiercely, "What tone and attitude are you using Are you tired of living"

While the words of others might be disregarded, Wu Qingshang's words held the same weight as an imperial decree in Wang Dajiao's ears.

Wu Qingcang roared, Wang Dazhao immediately bowed his head and dared not speak.

Li Chen smiled and said, "Wu Shuai, it's nothing. It's normal for General Wang to ask this question. Not only General Wang wants to know the answer, but also other soldiers. If they don't get an answer to this question, they will feel uneasy. People have their own thoughts, and it is a good thing to dare to ask questions and argue frankly. If everything is decided by superiors, and everyone just nods their heads without any of their own ideas or opinions, then people are no different from cattle and horses."

Li Chen's words struck a chord with all the generals.

Then Li Chen said, "Tonight, this palace will have a good chat with you all. However, this place is not suitable for conversation after all. Let's go back to the City Lord's Mansion. We are all men from the military ranks. Let's not talk about romance and beauty; let's discuss national affairs."

"After that, Li Chen turned to Wu Ban Shan and said, "General Wu, please trouble yourself to have the City Lord's Mansion prepare a few jars of good wine. Just get some peanuts or similar snacks to go with it; there's no need for anything too fancy. With Yueya Pass's current circumstances, we can't afford to be too extravagant. We just need something that's lively and enjoyable."

Wu Ban shan would not refuse, he immediately replied, "This subordinate obeys."

Soon, a group of generals returned to the City Lord's Mansion with Li Chen. Wu Ban Shan had arranged for people to come back earlier to prepare wine and food, which were all ready.

After all, there's no need for fancy dishes. Just a few cold appetizers to go with the drinks, and open a few jars of good wine. It's naturally convenient to prepare.

Although the conditions at Yueya Pass are harsh, they're even better than before. There's a lack of everything, but since Yueya Pass is located in the northwest, the winter winds can freeze people to death. Therefore, soldiers need strong alcohol to warm themselves, so good wine is definitely plentiful.

Li Chen took his seat first, with Wu Qingcang and Wu Ban Shan flanking him on either side.

As Wu Banshan was about to get up and pour wine for Li Chen, Li Chen waved his hand to stop him.

Under Wu Ban Shan's puzzled gaze, Li Chen opened the mud seal of the wine jar and lifted it to pour wine for Wu Qing Cang.

This action startled Wu Qingcang, and he instinctively pulled his wine bowl back, saying to Li Chen, "Your Highness, you mustn't."

"How could that be"

Li Chen asked, "Wu Shuai made a promise with one word, enduring hardship in Taimiao for over twenty years, how much wind and frost, and suffering has he endured Why is this bowl of wine unacceptable today"

At his words, Wu Qingscang's breath hitched. lay pale and weak, barely clinging to life, surrounded by the strong scent of traditional Chinese medicine. He showed no sign of response.Seeing Zhao Rui repeatedly uttering the same words, constantl...
