Although Ji Qingye did not believe that this weak woman would be able to kill him, he appreciated Cui Mengxi's courage.

Cui Mengxi nodded, "Thank you for your praise, General." Attached are two well-modulated coughs.

Ji Qingye could not help but frown and his eyes flashed. The young girl's face was slapped, and her pair of watery eyes were covered with a cough. However, there was no fear in her eyes, not even a ripple.

This was a completely different appearance from before. He had no choice but to admit that the woman in front of him truly had a unique style.

It was like good wine that had been hidden for decades. It overflowed with fragrance, making one want to take a sip.

Cui Mengxi lowered her head to look at her dirty shoes as she slid the flame onto her chest.

"You said just now that you wanted to take Xu Cai's head?" Ji Qingye withdrew his thoughts and turned to Cui Mengxi, giving an order, "Your highness has given your permission, if you fail and die in the enemy's camp, it would count as the country's death. When I return, I will bury you deeply."

It had to be said that such harsh and merciless words truly hurt his heart.

She was still standing here alive and well, cursing her to die?

"Thank you, General." Cui Mengxi's eyelashes trembled, as she changed the topic, "It's just that this humble girl has a better method. Not only can it lower the morale of the enemy, but it can also make the general pay a meritorious price. I wonder if this general is willing to listen."

This was undoubtedly a huge temptation, not like talking about life and death, but a business deal.

Ji Qingye's cold eyes narrowed. "Speak."

After pausing for a moment, Cui Mengxi said bluntly, "I humbly request that the General withdraw his troops."

"Retreat?!" Ji Qingye wasn't angered. Instead, he laughed, "I was guarding the territory and expanding my external forces, but I've never heard of withdrawing before. Your method is to make me shrink back like a turtle?"

This description was quite funny. Cui Mengxi silently cursed, and then she gently opened her cherry lips, "No, General has misunderstood. This humble girl means to let the enemy know that we have the wrong information."

Ji Qingye froze for a moment before he smiled and said, "… "You mean, bluffing the enemy?"

Cui Mengxi nodded and agreed.

This was indeed a good plan. First, he would let the enemy relax their vigilance and then take advantage of it to infiltrate the internal base. Wouldn't that reduce the loss of troops to the lowest possible level?

"Go on." Ji Qingye's gaze moved past the bonfire and landed on Cui Mengxi's face. Cui Mengxi raised her head, her mind was clear, "We pretended to retreat and let the enemy expand, the general must have heard the story of the wolf."

Ji Qingye immediately understood. His expression changed slightly. Cui Mengxi's plan had a lot of benefits to it.

This way, he would be able to solve the border turmoil in one fell swoop. Indeed, it was as she had said. If he succeeded, it would be beneficial to a general.

In the future, if they added such a heavy brushstroke to their illustrious names, how many people would aspire to such glory?

Ji Qingye praised Cui Mengxi as he spoke, "I didn't expect that a small military doctor could come up with such a plan." With that, he revealed a satisfied smile.

That small face was originally soft and white, but after being tempered by the night, it seemed as if it had gone through many hardships. Its dull brows relaxed, revealing an incomparably sharp smile. "This humble girl is stupid. I only know crude and shallow methods."

It was a series of 'stupid' words. However, when she smiled, the edge of her smile seemed to grow even sharper.

Ji Qingye lowered his voice and stood up. His back was straight as he placed both of his hands behind him, "From what I see, you shouldn't be deigning to be a military doctor. How about you become this general's advisor?"
