"What did you say? Who died?"

She asked calmly.

Gao Qiang was about to speak when he suddenly sensed something amiss in the atmosphere. He scratched his head in confusion: "Did I say something wrong?"

Xiao Hen knew that with his mother’s intelligence, it was unlikely he could keep this a secret. He glanced at his mother’s swollen belly, ready to give birth at any moment, worried that the shock could affect her pregnancy.

He said earnestly, "We haven’t figured it out yet. I’ll handle it. Mother, go inside and rest for a bit. I’ll come to tell you once I’ve sorted everything out."

Princess Xinyang replied sternly, "No need, I’m fine. You can speak."

"This..." Gao Qiang scratched his head, leaned closer to Xiao Hen, and whispered, "Should I say it or not?"

Xiao Hen sighed deeply, "You may as well say it."

At this point, there was no point in staying silent.

Gao Qiang acknowledged and then awkwardly asked, "What should I say?"

"Who died?" Princess Xinyang reminded him. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Gao Qiang suddenly understood, "Ah, yes, yes, it’s this news, General Xiao is dead!"

"Where did you hear this news?" Xiao Hen asked.

Although he had Long Yi’s sketch, Xiao Hen still hoped for even the smallest miracle, that perhaps there was a mistake, and that person might not be his family member.

Gao Qiang explained the background of the incident.

Lord Xuanping secretly sneaked into Yan Country. He did not have a legitimate pass for Yan Country, so to avoid unnecessary disputes and misunderstandings, both Lord Xuanping, Tang Yueshan, and the old lord used the identities of the Princess’s advisors.

Among them, Lord Xuanping was temporarily appointed as a general by Shangguan Yun.

He suddenly disappeared, naturally raising suspicion.

Shangguan Yun publicly claimed he went to seek medicine for the Ghost King’s hall at Ghost Mountain.

The ghost soldiers were a civilian-formed army that protected many local citizens from the Jin army. The people were quite friendly towards the ghost soldiers’ leader.

Hearing it was to seek medicine for him, everyone was eagerly hoping for General Xiao’s early return.

Who knew, a month passed, and instead of hearing news of General Xiao’s safe return, the commander of Hei Fengqi mobilized elite members from the Shadow Division to recover bodies from the ice fields.

Apparently, General Xiao succeeded in bringing the medicine from the other side of the ice fields and handed it to his companions but could not leave the ice fields alive.
