The disfigured prince's time-traveling concubine

Chapter 247 - Military Token

"Your Majesty..."

"Shh..." Feng Yixuan frowned and put his index finger to his lips to interrupt the person who came, then whispered to the eunuch, "Let's talk outside."

The two men came to the outer hall, and the young eunuch knelt down with a plop, and said anxiously, "Your Majesty, there are spies outside the palace reporting that an unknown force is invading, and no less than 50,000 troops are pouring into Nanyue. The vanguard has already approached the center of Nanyue, and many of our soldiers have been killed in the confrontation!"

Upon hearing this, Feng Yixuan slammed his hand on the table beside him.

"Increase the number of troops by two to strictly guard the palace gates. Send someone to quickly invite General Song, and then order a team of troops to leave the palace to look for the Ninth Prince." Feng Yixuan gave orders calmly while checking the topographic map of Nanyue, constantly thinking of strategies to delay and repel the enemy in his mind.

The eunuch left, and Feng Yixuan hurried to the bedroom. When he reached the palace gate, he found Song Yunshi standing there without knowing when, looking at him with a warm smile on her face, "Yun'er, why are you standing here in such thin clothes? Hurry up and go in."

"Wuqing, is there going to be another war?" Song Yunshi asked softly.

"Well, so you and Jiujiu stay in the East Palace and don't go out. Don't make me worry, okay?" Feng Yixuan put his arm around her shoulders and walked slowly into the bedroom. They were silent all the way, but the atmosphere was warm and cozy, as if he knew what the other person was thinking with just one move.

Sitting beside the bed, both of them smiled faintly as they watched Feng Shijiu turning over. Perhaps because there were too many things going on during this period of time, they had paid too little attention to Jiujiu. After looking carefully, they found that his legs had grown a little longer.

"Wuqing, don't worry. Jiujiu and I will stay here and won't go anywhere." How could Feng Yixuan not hear the double entendre in her words? When she said "stay", she meant to stay completely. Whether she lived or died, she would not take Jiujiu away.

Song Yuntian did not leave the palace that night, so he arrived at the East Palace and met Feng Yixuan in a short while. After a brief analysis, the two knew that the chances of winning this battle were very slim, because the existing troops in the palace were only half of the enemy's. Even with proper command, they could only barely fight a draw. According to the spy, judging from the uniforms of the army, they should not be Nanyue people, so this was not a coup to seize the palace, and the intention was obvious. Someone wanted to disrupt the overall situation of the world and wage an unjust war of aggression.

"Dad, uncle, what have you decided to do?" Feng Shijiu's sleepy voice sounded.

"Jiujiu, this is an adult matter, go back to the palace and sleep!" Feng Yixuan scolded in a deep voice. For some reason, he always felt that Jiujiu had grown too fast in recent times. Many of Jiujiu's talents and abilities had exceeded the scope of his control. He didn't know whether it was good or bad.

"Dad, have you sent someone to look for Uncle Nine?" Feng Shijiu smiled mysteriously, took out something similar to a token from his arms, shook it in front of Feng Yixuan, then winked at him mischievously.

Song Yuntian's eyes showed disbelief. He pointed at the thing in Feng Shijiu's hand with a shaking finger and didn't say anything for a long time. Feng Yixuan, who was standing by, was confused. He stepped forward and patted Song Yuntian's shoulder hard, asking in confusion, "Yuntian, are you possessed?"

"Brother-in-law, what Jiujiu is holding in his hand is my ninth brother's military token!" It took Song Yuntian a long time to suppress the joy in his heart.

"Military talisman?" Feng Yixuan's eyes shot towards Feng Shijiu like knives.

"Dad, don't look at me like that. After killing the eunuch, Uncle Nine quietly handed me the military token. He also said that Nanyue is not stable yet and will definitely need soldiers to protect it. So he didn't take those soldiers away, but stationed them in the dense forest outside the city, waiting to be deployed at any time."

Feng Yixuan stared at the military token in Feng Shijiu's hand in silence. This was his ninth brother!
