Chapter 773: Chapter 773: Ye Ge and Lu Jianxi Like a Married Couple_1

Nangong Ye earnestly thanked Lu Jianxi, "Thank you, I appreciate your efforts."

"No problem. Remember to move around daily to flex your muscles. Your injury is just superficial, getting some movement would do you good and you won’t take long to heal."

"I hope so," Nangong Ye replied, moving a bit, then picked up a military book from the table and started reading.

Gunpowder Strategies.

While he was reading, Li Ze entered the room.

In this battle, Li Ze had suffered a hand injury from an explosion and both his hands were now in slings.

When Li Ze saw Nangong Ye reading while lying in bed and Lu Jianxi changing his bandages accordingly, the scene seemed reminiscent of that of a typical married couple to him.

Unable to resist, Li Ze remarked, "Ah, this reminds me of my wife. Whenever I had a minor scrape or bruise during my time in the military department, she would dress my wounds in the same manner."

Once Li Ze stopped talking, Nangong Ye and Lu Jianxi exchanged looks. Nangong Ye was desperately trying to solve the problem of gunpowder, therefore he was making the most of his time. But Lu Jianxi, because of her meticulous methods, hoped to do more for Nangong Ye causing her to fashion the bandages into a beautiful bow.

"General Lu, thank you," Nangong Ye put down the book just as Lu Jianxi finished tying the bandage, and he looked at the bow, lost in thought.

Seeing this, Lu Jianxi quickly deflected, "Who would have thought that even a rough woman like me could have a girlish side?"

And she resumed her usual heroic posture.

Nangong Ye laughed softly, thinking that he was probably overthinking.

"General Li Ze, what brings you here?" Nangong Ye asked.

Li Ze took a seat before saying, "We have discovered some information about the explosives. Unlike traditional ones we usually use, these explosives have been modified by Dashun’s second prince."

"You mean, the barbarians have managed to modify the explosives? Wasn’t the technology transferred to them from our kingdom of Dajin? Could it be that they have now grasped the essence of it? And how did this second prince manage to become so capable?" Nangong Ye asked, somewhat surprised.

"This second prince was formerly insignificant, avoiding responsibility on their grasslands. I heard he’s changed his bad ways, likely in an attempt to gain power," Li Ze said, "There are also rumors that the second prince may be a secret weapon of the Khan of Dashun, to be used at a critical moment."

"If they launch another attack, how can we counter their explosives formation?" Nangong Ye pondered, once again turning to his military books.

With the knowledge from his predecessors and his own insights, he might just find a way to break the enemy’s explosives formation.

...

Nan Feng hurried off to find the Emperor.

This was the first time she had taken the initiative to visit the Emperor in Yangxin Hall.

The Emperor quickly instructed for her to be let in.

Upon entering, Nan Feng immediately knelt down before the Emperor, "Your Majesty, I heard from some of the concubines in the back garden that we have lost a battle in the north and suffered heavy casualties. I implore Your Majesty for news of Nangong Ye."

The Emperor was sitting at his desk, he looked up at Nan Feng.

A matter that made her kneel willingly, coupled with her anxious demeanor, could only involve Nangong Ye.

It seemed that regardless of where they are or what circumstances they find themselves in, their feelings for each other were as strong as a solid wall of copper and iron.

"He’s fine," the Emperor said.

Nan Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

"He sustained a superficial injury, and the forces are currently in recuperation. I believe they will recover soon," the Emperor stated.

"That’s good to hear, thank you, Your Majesty," Nan Feng said.

The Emperor continued: "This time, it was a female general who fiercely charged in and rescued Nangong Ye."
