Xiao Yao sat on her horse not far away, still drowsy.
However, she was merely tired, not dead or deaf.
She could still hear Leng Ji's words clearly.
She immediately spurred her horse to Feng Ye Xuan's side, complaining, "Your Highness, I didn't sleep all night yesterday and I'm extremely tired and sleepy now. Can I go back to sleep?"
"If you wish to rest, go to my camp and rest for a while. I will have someone fetch you later."
Feng Ye Xuan looked at the dense mass of people ahead, his gaze never lingering on her.
Xiao Yao had intended to leave immediately, but on second thought, something was wrong! Resting in his camp, what kind of message would that send?
Wasn't there already enough gossip?
"Can't I just go back to the Prince's mansion?"
"No."
"!" You brute! Tyrant! Arrogant, unreasonable!
"Your Highness," even Leng Ji was starting to find the Prince's behavior a bit too barbaric.
"Your Highness summoned Miss Xiao Yao, what exactly... is it for?"
Although he was not familiar with Xiao Yao, he had seen over the past few days that the girl was not difficult to get along with.
In fact, she was a very good person.
Looking at her current complexion, with severe dark circles, it was clear she was severely sleep-deprived.
Last night, Xiao Yao had not seduced the Prince all night. Leng Ji knew better than anyone what they had done last night.
Xiao Yao had reviewed almost all the official documents for Prince Xuan last night!
Leng Ji had entered a few times in the middle, once to change the hot water, once to deliver snacks, and another time to deliver ginseng tea.
For some reason, the Prince had discovered this extremely powerful skill of Xiao Yao's in governing the country, and thus, "made the best use of everything"!
Last night, the Prince ate snacks and drank tea, sitting in his chair, leisurely watching Xiao Yao work.
And Xiao Yao only stopped a few times in the middle to drink some ginseng tea to stay alert and eat something to fill her stomach.
Do you think she was really so diligent, unwilling to stop working?
She didn't stop because a certain tyrant had said that if she didn't finish reviewing them, he would "strip her naked" and throw her out.
Even Leng Ji, who was guarding outside the door, heard it! .oγg
In the latter half of the night, Leng Ji went back to rest and sent Jing Ri to take over.
Although he didn't know what happened later, Leng Ji guessed that Xiao Yao had most likely finished reviewing the official documents from all the regions.
Because, last night, there was no strange news of someone being "stripped naked and thrown out" from the Wuzhou Garden.
The Prince himself, however, was full of spirit and energy.
Xiao Yao, who had worked hard all night, now looked like a rag.
"Last night, didn't you say you wanted to train elite soldiers, and that using old training methods could only train their physical fitness, and their mental capacity would regress?"
Feng Ye Xuan did not answer Leng Ji's question, but his gaze was locked on Xiao Yao.
"You said that if this method continued long-term, it would train soldiers who are 'strong in limbs and simple in mind'?"
Strong in limbs, simple in mind...
Did it mean what he thought it meant?
Leng Ji looked at his arms, then at his legs, and then thought about his forehead.
His limbs were indeed well-developed, but his mind... was it simple?
So being strong in limbs was something to be disliked?
Looking at Xiao Yao's eyes, his gaze instantly changed from pity to displeasure.
Talking behind their backs, the soldiers, was too much!
Xiao Yao rolled her eyes at him and yawned, looking utterly dejected.
"Yes, yes, it's your type... What are you looking at? When you encounter a problem, besides using brute force to solve it, have you ever thought about how to find a better solution?"
Leng Ji said resentfully, "Of course..."
"What about during battles?"
"During battles, of course, you can only rely on physical strength..."
"So you are a typical representative of being strong in limbs and simple in mind!"
Xiao Yao yawned again, truly sleepy.
"Your Highness, I was talking nonsense last night. I don't understand tactics at all. Please let me go back and rest!"
Unexpectedly, Feng Ye Xuan became surprisingly agreeable this time.
He reined in his horse and said, "Alright, I will accompany you back to the camp to sleep!"
