My Princess and Crown Prince Are Revived
Chapter 335 Shi Jing’s Abnormality

Chapter 335: Chapter 335 Shi Jing’s Abnormality

"General Shi, I don’t recall allowing you to join the army," said Chu Baihan, her voice cold and detached.

Sensing her alienation and disgust, Shi Jing’s heart ached for a moment.

How had they come to this point where even a cordial conversation was impossible?

Lowering his gaze to hide the disappointment in his eyes, he said softly, "Princess, now is a critical time for the survival of our nation. How could I, as the last in command, do nothing in the capital city?"

Listening to his words, Chu Baihan frowned but ultimately didn’t argue.

He was right; what mattered most now was unity against the outside threat.

Their personal grievances could wait until later.

After all, Shi Jing was a man of ability.

His willingness to join them might help to stabilize the troops’ morale.

"On my way here, I happened to encounter Prince Nan Cong. He asked me to bring him along, but knowing you dislike him, I injured him. He probably won’t be able to reach Tongzhou now," said Shi Jing, continuing in a calm tone.

As he spoke, everyone’s expressions twisted.

They began to wonder if they had heard him wrong.

Did General Shi just say that he injured Prince Nan Cong?

Simply because the Princess doesn’t like him?

No, if you’ve injured him, that’s done, but why would you announce it publicly?

Injuring a prince is a capital offense!

Has General Shi gone mad?

His subordinates were also visibly anxious.

"General!"

They called out to him in a panic.

But Shi Jing, as if he hadn’t heard them, looked up, his eyes tense as he gazed in Chu Baihan’s direction.

He knew that harming a prince would lead to severe punishment upon his return to the capital city.

Yet he couldn’t help himself...

He deeply desired to do something for her, to catch a sliver of her attention.

Chu Baihan knitted her brows; she had no idea what Shi Jing, this foolish man, was trying to do, and she couldn’t be bothered to figure it out.

What did it matter to her if Prince Nan Cong came or not?

"Princess," a distinct young voice suddenly broke the tension.

Turning to look, Chu Baihan finally noticed Feng Shan standing behind Shi Jing.

"Yuexin, why are you here?"

Chu Baihan’s eyes instantly filled with concern.

"How dangerous is this place? You need to go back!"

Her tone grew increasingly stern.

She was fiercely protective of her own, and once she deemed someone as her kin, she wouldn’t allow them to be in harm’s way.

Chen Yuexin was unlike Nan Xing and Meng Xia; she had no martial arts skills!

"Princess, I have some medical skills, and I’ve also learned to ride from the old soldiers in the village. I can be of help to you," said Feng Shan, his eyes red as he spoke softly.

"Nonsense, go back immediately," commanded Chu Baihan sharply.

Now, she understood how Zhu Yinian felt when he saw Zhu Xinyue—what a plight.

But Feng Shan, finding courage from somewhere, stubbornly spoke up: "This life was saved by you, Princess. I, too, want to do something for you. Please, Princess, let me stay by your side and serve you."

Chu Baihan: "..."

Why did it seem like he was making it sound like she was some kind of heartbreaker?

Well, it’s not as if she was asking him to join the battlefield.

In this city, women and children might really need his help.

So Chu Baihan soon relented: "Fine, you may stay."

Chen Yuexin could tell this servant was somewhat special, so she took the initiative: "Princess, if it’s okay, let him follow me. I’ll show him around and also keep him safe."

"Fine," Chu Baihan nodded.

She didn’t need attendants in the military camp.

Letting Chen Yuexin stick with Zhu Xinyue would be good.

By this time, Feng Shan had already dismounted and walked to the front of Chu Baihan and Chen Yuexin.

She was still dressed in the attire of a maidservant, appearing to be a vulnerable maidservant.

Is this maidservant not a bit too tall?

Zhu Xinyue looked at Feng Shan who was half a head taller than Chu Baihan, feeling herself becoming frustrated.

How come the women in the capital city are all so tall?

"Your name is Yuexin, right? What a coincidence, my name also contains the character for ’moon’, I am called Zhu Xinyue. You can call me Yueyue," Zhu Xinyue said to Feng Shan with a smile.

Her eyes fixedly stared at the other.

This maidservant, not only tall, she was also truly beautiful.

"Alright, Yuexin, from now on you’ll follow Miss Zhu... cough, follow Yueyue,"

Chu Baihan had many matters to attend to, so she did not have the time to chat with them.

After leaving these words, she quickly turned and left.

Watching Chu Baihan’s retreating figure, Feng Shan clenched her fingers, a fierce light flashing in her eyes.

Sister...

Calling someone else "Yueyue".

"My name is Yueyue, how about I call you Xinxin sister?"

Zhu Xinyue was a warmhearted person, she said to Feng Shan with much enthusiasm.

"Shut your mouth."

Feng Shan glanced at her from the corner of her eye, and the murderous intent in her eyes followed suit.

Zhu Xinyue was so frightened that she turned pale, a suffocating feeling as if gripping her throat.

But when she mustered up the courage to take a clearer look, Feng Shan had already turned and walked away.

She stealthily gasped for air.

Was it because she was the maidservant of the Princess that she possessed such terrifying murderous aura?

Everyone else had left, and Shi Jing was still standing there, stunned.

His expression was bitter.

The Princess, she was so kind to a maidservant, yet extremely cold only to him.

However, this was also his own doing.

Thinking back on his past deeds, Shi Jing felt his current expression was no better than the Emperor’s.

The Emperor was also filled with extreme regret.

...

"Princess, where is Prince Yan? Now that the enemy’s army is at the gates, why has he not appeared?"

After entering the military tent, Shi Jing saw Chu Baihan examining the war map. He walked up to her quickly and asked tentatively.

He had already observed his surroundings just before, and there was no sign of Yan Lin at all.

Hadn’t Yan Lin said he would protect her well?

Was this his idea of protection? Having just arrived in Tongzhou, he had turned into a coward and run away on his own.

Chu Baihan initially did not deign to acknowledge Shi Jing, but upon hearing his allegations against her family’s Yan Lin, a chill instantly spread across her face.

She looked up, her tone unfriendly as she said, "General Shi, Yan Country’s troops must be mobilized by their master, hence my lord Prince has personally gone to lead them here. Do you have a problem with that?"

Shi Jing turned pale.

The Princess had just said "my lord Prince", hadn’t she?

Had her relationship with Yan Lin progressed to such an extent?

A pain in his chest, a sense that he was running out of breath.

Just then, Zhu Yinian lifted the tent curtain and walked in.

Chu Baihan raised her eyes to look at him, then asked, "How are you feeling now, General Zhu?"

"Reporting to the Princess, your medicine is highly effective, I am not in pain anymore," Zhu Yinian quickly replied.

"Hmm." Chu Baihan nodded and then continued to examine the map.

It was at this time that Zhu Yinian noticed Shi Jing’s presence.

His eyes brightened, and he quickly stepped forward to pay his respects.

In Nanduan Kingdom, the warriors admired two people, one was the Princess, and the other was General Shi.
