Chapter 242: The Kings of Two Countries Meet

"Sister Nong Yue?"

Hearing this, Feng Huaying couldn't hide the surprise in her eyes, "Sister Nong Yue is back, where is she?"

As she spoke, she quickly walked out of the door and looked around. After looking around and not seeing anyone, she walked in front of Su Lejin.

"Miss, you said you would bring Sister Nong Yue back. Where is she now? Why can't I see her?"

Before he could finish his words, he caught a glimpse of the black urn in Su Lejin's arms and was stunned for a moment.

The look of surprise faded, and tears instantly filled her eyes.

"How could...how could this happen?" Feng Huaying stretched out her hand tremblingly, wanting to touch the urn but not daring to.

Just then, footsteps were heard from behind, followed by a puzzled voice, "Huaying, why are you still standing here? You were walking so fast just now, we all thought you were already on the street."

The several shops they opened in the imperial city have gone through ten years of ups and downs and no longer need them to take care of them personally.

Just check and verify the account books occasionally.

Today, it is Feng Huaying's turn to reconcile the accounts.

She was preparing to go out with great joy, but she didn't expect to receive this news.

Feng Huaying wiped the tears from her face and turned to look at the man, "Jun Lian, can you go to the store for me today?"

As she turned around, Su Lejin's figure appeared.

Feng Junlian looked at her unfamiliar face and was stunned for a moment, "Huaying, is that your friend?"

Apart from the three of them, no one else knew that they were working as spies, so when she came back this time, she found an excuse to get away with it.

"Yes, that's my friend." Feng Huaying nodded.

"Okay, you guys chat it up and leave the store matters to me." Feng Junlian said, then turned and left.

Feng Huaying brought Su Lejin into the house and they sat opposite each other.

"Girl, I still don't know how to address you? How does Sister Nong Yue know you?" Feng Huaying asked, staring at Su Lejin.

Su Lejin sighed softly, "My name is Su Lejin, the top performer at Manchunlou in Yu State. It was Shopkeeper Feng who approached me and asked me to pass on information for An Guo."

Hearing this, Feng Huaying understood clearly.

As expected, in such a dangerous situation, there was no desire to make friends.

The only people he could get to know and have a good relationship with were the girls in the brothel.

"Then Miss Su was able to recognize me, but Sister Nong Yue has mentioned me to you?"

"Indeed, she said she has a very clingy sister, who is smart, clever, and loyal."

Hearing her words, Feng Huaying couldn't stop crying again.

What was Sister Nong Yue’s expression when she said this? Was it pride or doting?

Su Lejin silently handed over a handkerchief. Feng Huaying took it and gently wiped her tears.

"Miss Su, can you tell me about Sister Nong Yue's last days?" Feng Huaying's voice trembled slightly.

Su Lejin nodded slightly and continued, "Shopkeeper Feng passed away over a month ago. She was really trying hard to stay alive and wanted to come back alive, but her body couldn't hold on. According to Doctor Qin at the time, she should have died months ago, but she relied on her faith to persevere to the end."

Feng Huaying bit her lip, tears rolling down her face, "Sister Nong Yue is always like this."

Su Lejin continued, "During that time, she often talked about you and her hometown. She was very happy when she left. She said that living this long was a luxury. She was short-lived and had lived for a decade longer. How could she not be satisfied? She just felt a little regretful that she couldn't see you and her hometown again."

"So, I said bring her back."

Feng Huaying pursed her lips and reached out to touch the urn.

The person who said goodbye when leaving, turned into such a small ball when coming back.

After a while, Feng Huaying raised her head and looked at Su Lejin with a firm gaze, "Miss Su, thank you for bringing my sister back."

Su Lejin shook her head slightly, "This is what I promised her."

……

Today is the fifth day of the army's rest, and it is also the day they set out again.

Yun Zhi got up early, dressed in armor, looking heroic.

She looked at the soldiers ready to go and waved her whip, "Let's go!"

The army marched forward in a mighty force, and this time their destination was the Liao Kingdom.

While on the way, Yun Zhi received the news brought by Qin Wan.

Qi Yan'an has already led his army to the border to welcome the arrival of An Guo's army.

To be honest, she had never met Qi Yan'an before.

The army marched quickly all the way and finally arrived at the border after several days.

When they arrived there, the 200,000 reinforcements and food and military equipment sent by Liu Anruojia had already arrived.

Seeing the army, the general came over immediately and said, "I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

Yun Zhi raised her hand slightly, "No need to be polite, what's the situation now?"

The general's expression was serious. "Your Majesty, Qi Yan'an has already led his army to set up camp around the city ahead."

"Already arrived? Have you found out how many people they are dispatching this time?"

The general bowed and replied, "Your Majesty, the preliminary estimate is no less than 800,000."

Yun Zhi narrowed her eyes slightly. "Eight hundred thousand? You really came prepared."

It seems that during the months of war with Yu State, Liao State was constantly recruiting soldiers, otherwise it would not have been possible to send out so many troops when so many soldiers had died.

"Pass on my order, the army will rest in place and send spies to closely monitor the movements of the Liao army." Yun Zhi gave the order decisively.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The general took the order and left.

Yun Zhi walked into the tent and began to discuss countermeasures with several generals.

The next day, the Anguo army set out to attack the city.

Yun Zhi rode on the horse, looking at Qi Yan'an on the city wall in front of him.

Qi Yan'an was seen in military uniform, looking majestic and awe-inspiring.

His eyes were also locked on Yun Zhi, and their gazes met in the air.

The first meeting between the two monarchs took place in such a scene.
