Chapter 12 Burn Them Out

His volume wasn’t low, especial in such a small place. Many eyes were attracted by his voice. Hearing the words, Yuxing Tianrui’s face darkened a little, which scared the military advisor.

“Sweet, be aware of your identity.” He walked to Du Chuxuan, taking a glance at the dusty stone, hesitant, and didn’t sit down.

Du Chuxuan certainly saw his expression and found his mysophobia regardless of time and place amusing. A spoiled prince. Alright. Keep doing that!

“Just now Your Highness said we could take a rest. I’m just taking the lead. Or Your Highness wants to rest in a quiet place?” The question was asked near Yuxing Tianrui’s ear.

Immediately, Yuxing Tianrui took a few steps back from fright and some shyness, probably.

Hahaha. What a delight to see him like this! A little fool he is in fact, but always put on airs like an adult and pull a freezing face. Look at those reddish ears that just give him away.

“Nonsense.” Yuxing Tianrui almost spitted the word from his teeth. Then he seemed to remember something, “I see. As I said you care so much about us and are still willing to check out the surroundings for us. Thank you.”

If eyes were a weapon to kill, Yuxing Tianrui would have died numerous times. Du Chuxuan glared at his complacent smile, turned to discover others’ admirable sight, gritting his teeth.

Great. You good boy Yuxing Tianrui. Let’s wait and see!

Unable to rest, Du Chuxuan cursed his way to the small platform. Luckily, he was afraid of death and wasn’t picky at the dirty ground, so he secretly got down on his elbows on the edge of the platform, showing out only his head.

If there was an amazing Turkish archer over there, he would turn into a honeycomb in any second!

“A bunch of useless things!” Ashina Yi looked horrible. The fruit at his mouth suddenly flew away. No one would be in a good mood after that.

People were all kneeling in front of him, too frightened to say anything. Whatever they replied would be wrong. There was nothing wrong with the plan, but to everyone’s surprise, they ran away from the other side.

“News!” A soldier rushed from below and kneeling down, started to report to Ashina Yi, “Your Highness. They haven’t gotten up from the other side. They should be staying somewhere in the valley. Should we send people in search of them?”

Ashina Yi turned around, eyes falling on the cliff not far away, “Ha, do you think this bunch of useless things are able to find them? Do you want me to go personally?”

None of the kneeling group dared to respond, bowing their heads. The enchanting woman pondered a while and said cutely, “Don’t worry, Your Highness. There is a way to get them.”

Ashina Yi was in a terrible mood. The beauty’s words could at most stop him from flying into a fury. He snorted to show that he was listening and glanced at her to see whether she deserved the fame of Turkish talented woman.

“Right now, they’re still in our pocket. They’ll have to take whatever we put in the pocket, won’t they?” The beauty twisted her waist and cautiously walked to Ashina Yi, pointing with her slim fingers at the opposite location, “They can’t be anywhere else than over there. If the rats don’t come out, let’s burn them out!”

Everyone understood this was a rare opportunity. For this plan, Ashina Yi had prepared for half a year to bribe a general. If this time the plan failed, an opportunity as such would be rarer.

Ashine Yi narrowed his eyes to scrutinize the situation on the opposite, inwardly made a plan. In a while, his lips curled up, “My honey is the smartest. Useless things. No better than a woman.”

He turned around and said coldly to them, “I don’t think I need to teach you how to do that. If you fail again, don’t come back to see me.”

“Yes.” The people replied submissively but doubted to themselves. Now it was July when plants contained most water. It was harder to fly to the sky than to put a valley on fire.

Far away from him, Du Chuxuan certainly couldn’t hear what Ashina Yi’s plan was. Nor did see any people. Watching around, he didn’t find anything wrong either.

When he turned back, Yuxing Tianrui already sat leisurely on the stone which was now cleaned by the servants. Seeing Du Chuxuan was back, he raised his chin, “Find anything?”

Du Chuxuan instantly pissed off at the way he looked. On a second thought, he paced over with a bright smile, “Are you eager to see me back? I’m serving you to rest right now.”

The words were said so seductively that it even gave Du Chuxuan himself goose bumps. He hadn’t gone to the brothel House of Moon for nothing. As least, the voice penetrated into the skin.

Yuxing Tianrui’s face turned terrible at once. He gazed at him with anger, reaching out to pinch his chin, “Woman. You better behave yourself. Don’t have dirty thoughts when so many men are here.”

After he said this, he saw tears welling up in Du Chuxuan’s eyes, which gave him an unspeakable bitterness. He felt compelled to comfort Du Chuxuan, because after all it was the harsh words he had said that embarrassed his princess. However, his pride as Crown Prince didn’t allow him to do so. Hence, he momentarily turned away and left.

As soon as he let go of him, Du Chuxuan quickly rubbed his chin with both ‘paws’. He sighed from the pain. Damn man. Why pinched so hard? Luckily, he was a man. If he had really been a fragile girl, he would have been killed by his clench.

The two had no idea that they were thinking different things. One was mad at himself, and the other was cursing both in words and mind.

The military advisor was anxious about the current situation. He, taking the risk, cautiously walked to Yuxing Tianrui, “Your Highness. I’m afraid things may change if we don’t hurry to break out.”

Yuxing Tianrui was about to say something, when a gust of wind blew in, bringing over a strange smell. He frowned slightly, “What’s this smell?”

The military advisor didn’t have an acute nose and smelled something only after sniffing hard, “It smells like cooking fire on a farm. I think it’s dinner time.”

After he said this, both of their countenances changed drastically.
