“Every time there’s a war, there are people in the army who have gone crazy from killing too many people. The soldiers at the front line have to retreat to the back to rest every once in a while to avoid being exhausted and facing the enemy. It’s also to prevent the soldiers from being on a bloody battlefield for a long time and affecting their temperament.”
Yu Youyao clenched her fists tightly, her heart filled with pain.

The soldiers could switch to defense and retreat to the back to rest and dissipate their killing intent. However, as the commander-in-chief, Yin Huaixi had the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers on his back. He had no right to retreat.
When not in battle, he stood on the battlefield where corpses were everywhere and blood flowed like a river, rummaging through the corpses of the fallen soldiers.
During war, he would also rush to the front line.
Everyone in the world only knew that Yin Huaixi had offered a sacrifice on the Wolf Residence Mountain, but how many people really knew how difficult it was to defeat the Di people?
Yin Huaixi had planned for this for ten years.
For a full ten years.
From his childhoon till he reached the age of 20, he had practiced the art of war, studied military formations, trained troops, nurtured elites, explored the enemy’s situation, drawn maps… All of this was to pacify the Northern Barbarians and let the commoners live and work in peace.
Yin Huaixi was cruel for slaughtering the grassland, but in those years, the commoners of the border cities were killed because the Di people had repeatedly invaded the border. Soldiers had died in battle in order to protect their families because the Di people actively caused trouble and invaded. Some families had been destroyed because the Di people burned, killed, and looted their families. There was also every inch of land that had been dyed red with blood because of the war…
There was no right or wrong in war.
There was only victory and defeat.
After a long time, Yu Youyao heard her dry voice say, “Then what should we do?”
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
Yin Shi held her breath and suddenly relaxed. “As long as he returns to his normal life, his killing intent will gradually fade after a while.”
After an unknown period of time, the carriage gradually stopped.
Chun Xiao and Xia Tao alighted one after another.
Just as Yu Youyao was about to get out of the carriage, she heard the sound of hooves rushing over. Then, the heavy curtain in front of the carriage was lifted forcefully.
A bone-chilling wind suddenly rushed into the carriage.
Yu Youyao shivered from the cold. Before she could react, she was hit by the coldness.
She hadn’t seen Yin Huaixi for a long time, so she subconsciously pushed him away, wanting to see him. However, he pulled her into his arms with such force that it almost crushed her bones.
Yu Youyao cried out in pain.
However, not only did Yin Huaixi not let go of her, but he also became even more aggressive. His arms wrapped around her shoulders and tightened, as if he wanted to rub her into his flesh and blood.
“Be gentle, it hurts…” She punched his chest a few times.
Yin Huaixi buried his head in the side of her neck. His turbid breathing was rapid and heavy as he whispered into her ear, “Do you also think that I’m bloodthirsty, violent, and murderous?”
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
Where did this come from?
Yu Youyao opened her mouth and was about to speak when she heard Yin Huaixi’s turbid voice. “Do you not want to enter the capital and want to stay in the Yu Garden to live a carefree life?”
Before she left, she was indeed filled with hesitation, but…
Yin Huaixi did not close his eyes for three consecutive days. His eyes were bloodshot and filled with a strong hostility. “I’ve always understood you. On the surface, you look obedient, but in your heart, you hate the restrictions of those rules. You pretend to follow the rules. You’re the most unreasonable. If I give you some capital, you’ll even dare to cause trouble today…”
If it weren’t for this earth-shattering boldness, how could she have changed the ills and predicament of the previous dynasties in the North? She even opened a women’s courtyard in the North and advocated female studies?
Others only thought that she was doing this to make women learn how to read and write.
It was not considered deviant.
However, he knew Yu Youyao so well.
The Ruoshui Mountain Courtyard had progressed so smoothly, and there were almost no obstacles in the process. It was because she had been planning it since a long time ago, but she had been suppressing it until now because of the poverty in the North.
The women’s courtyard was a benchmark she had set.
It was a benchmark that allowed women to read and read openly, and accept teachings like men.
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
When more and more women obtained the opportunity to read, become literate, understand, and be virtuous like men, they did not need to advocate anything and change anything. Women who were sensible and virtuous would be treated differently no matter what.
Ye Yingqiu was an example.
At that time, the status of women would gradually improve under this trend. Society would also become more tolerant of women, and their situation would be better.
She had the heart to change everything.
He also had the heart to respect the heavens and the Dao.
He did not want everyone to be equal, but he wanted to let nature take its course. Respecting the development of all things was inaction.
He was good at plotting.
However, in terms of management, he was far inferior to Yu Youyao.
It was because he did not have Yu Youyao’s sincerity.
Yu Youyao subconsciously wanted to refute, but Yin Huaixi did not give her a chance. “Although Xiangping City is a long way from the capital, it’s very convenient for carriages to pass along the official road. At the beginning of November, Eunuch Zhu will set off to Xiangping City to pick you up and bring you into the capital. You’ll be able to enter the capital in half a month at most. You can’t delay it until December…”
So, had she deliberately delayed entering the capital so late?
Was that what Yin Huaixi had been thinking for the past month?
Yu Youyao was so angry that she almost laughed. “What a mess. Why don’t you take a look at what season it is now. It’s cold in Liaodong. In some places, the roads are blocked by heavy snow, so we can only take a detour. It’s easy for the carriage to slip in the snow, and it can’t travel quickly on the way. I’ve suffered a lot along the way. You don’t feel sorry for me, but you think I’m too slow…”
He was looking forward to meeting her as soon as possible.
Every day that passed, many doubts and speculations would arise in his heart for no reason. He couldn’t help but feel a little anxious, and his emotions couldn’t help but be irritable. He couldn’t help but worry about gains and losses, so he didn’t care about anything else.
Yin Huaixi’s heart ached. He looked at her tired face and her palm-sized face that was a little pale. She was thin under her snow-white fox fur collar, making her eyes look big and bright. At this moment, her eyes were red and moist. Her haggard and pitiful appearance made his heart ache.
Even Yu Youyao’s eyes turned red. She pushed him hard a few times, but he did not budge. She patted him twice, then her hands went numb. She felt so aggrieved that her voice choked.
“You’re scolding me as soon as we meet. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have come. Otherwise, you would have deliberately provoked me and schemed for your imperial harem, thinking that I was in the way of your happy days…”
As soon as she said this, Yu Youyao regretted it.
She lowered her head, not daring to look at Yin Huaixi.
The moment she said that she wouldn’t come, Yin Huaixi’s eyes turned red on the spot. He stared at her intently. “How can there be an imperial harem? As soon as I entered the capital, I was so busy that I didn’t have the mood to care about those messy things…”
“What did I say wrong?” Yu Youyao couldn’t stand it anymore. She suddenly looked up, and tears welled up in her eyes.
