Chapter 906: Chapter 904: Chu Yihan Seeks Accountability

“Brother won’t listen to advice? Why is this? Brother has always been level-headed, and since he set out with grandfather, how could he ignore advice?” Su Yingxue was utterly confused.

In Yungui City, they had even watched their mother’s final video together. At that time, Su Hao showed no sign of anything unusual!

Su Qingzhi shook his head in frustration.

Only Su Wei could explain to Su Yingxue, “The Eldest Young Master previously went back to Jiang Du City alone, claiming it was to visit Miss Wu. The Old General, remembering his long separation from Miss Wu, did not blame him. But after the General returned, he started to become downcast and acted less prudently, often making mistakes. This time, he was provoked by the enemy general’s taunts, acted impulsively, and led troops in anger, falling into the enemy’s trap.”

The Old General had indeed sent troops to rescue him, but the enemy, knowing that the Eldest Young Master was his grandson, guarded him especially strictly. The Old General dispatched troops twice, losing thousands of soldiers, and with the enemy securing the Eldest Young Master so tightly, there was nothing he could do. One couldn’t send those soldiers to their deaths just for the sake of the Eldest Young Master alone! Their lives mattered too; they were beloved sons of their parents!”

Having heard this, Su Yingxue immediately understood that Su Qingzhi was not only their grandfather but also the Defender General of the Great Cheng Dynasty; he couldn’t disregard the lives of his soldiers.

This battlefield was cruel, not like their play at home in Jiang Du City.

But what she couldn’t comprehend was, “Sister Jinyan has always been fine in Jiang Du City, so why would brother do this?”

Su Yingxue simply couldn’t think of what could have happened between the two of them to cause Su Hao to lose his rationality to such an extent.

“Who knows! If you want to know, ask your brother!”

Su Qingzhi angrily slammed down his teacup, feeling a mix of anger, annoyance, helplessness, and pain.

Su Yingxue knew there wasn’t much she could do; after all, the soldiers of the entire Great Cheng Dynasty listened most to Chu Yihan’s commands, and this border territory was also Chu Yihan’s domain.

The mere mention of his name could terrify the enemy troops; she turned and rushed out to find Chu Yihan.

She bumped into a solid chest at the entrance of the tent.

“Ouch!”

Su Yingxue touched her nose, which really hurt!

“How could you be so careless?”

Chu Yihan, seeing her reddened nose, wanted to comfort her with a heartache.

But recalling that she had run off with Mu Yan and hadn’t come to please him in days, the anger in his heart hadn’t yet subsided, and he withdrew his hands.

“Your Highness, my brother has been trapped behind enemy lines for three days now, please think of a solution!”

Su Yingxue grabbed his arm, stomping her feet in anxiety.

So, it was for Su Hao.

Chu Yihan’s expression darkened, and he pursed his lips as he entered the military tent.

Upon seeing Chu Yihan, Su Qingzhi and Su Wei quickly bowed, “We are at Your Highness’s service.”

“Please rise.”

As soon as Chu Yihan entered the military camp, he emanated an aura of majestic fortitude, his whole being exuding an imposing and confident air as if he owned the entire battlefield.

He had already received reports earlier that Su Hao, unable to bear the taunts of the enemy, had recklessly led his troops out, losing not only men and supplies but also getting himself trapped behind enemy lines. Chu Yihan began by reprimanding, “Su Hao, as the General Weiwu with rich combat experience, has still committed such a basic error, causing loss to our troops and supplies and damaging the dignity of our forces. Your Highness will definitely not let this go unpunished!”

Anger was evident on Chu Yihan’s face.

Su Qingzhi and Su Wei hastily knelt down with Su Qingzhi saying, “I have failed in my strict upbringing, leading to Su Hao making such a mistake. I am willing to share in his punishment!”

He kowtowed deeply to Chu Yihan, while the other military commanders in the tent also knelt, not daring to speak.
