Xie Yuan asked in confusion:

"Why have to follow me? Actually, you don't have to please me."

Lingxiu looked at Xie Yuan, her eyes filled with tears, and tears wet her eyelashes. She sat softly on the ground. When she looked up, she was pitiful and said crying:

"Because I know you are different from everyone else. When I met you for the first time, I knew. At that time, I didn't know you were a girl, but when you frowned while looking at me, you frowned, but I could tell that you were sad for me, right?

When the nobles in this world look at us, there are many condescending contempt or pity, especially men. We look more like a cargo and a toy, and no one has ever seen someone else feel empathy and painful to me, not to mention that he is a noble and powerful person like General Xie.”

The more she said, the more tears became, and she gradually burst into tears and said:

“…It’s like I’ve suffered so many years alone, and suddenly one day I’m seen and known.

I don't know how to describe my own feelings...but I just think that you are the meal I need, my life-saving straw... Even if you are as unparalleled and without image as a mad dog, I must follow you... General Xie, you understand me, right?... right?"

Xie Yuan frowned gently. She looked at Lingxiu's hopelessness and couldn't help wet her eyes. After a while, she lowered her eyes and stretched out her hand to Shen Liuzhen beside her, saying:

"Sign her into my name."

Shen Liuzhen had no choice but to pursed his lips, looked at Lingxiu who was extremely happy in dissatisfaction, and had to order someone to do it.

...

...

A few more days later, autumn begins. Every year, this season comes, a grand hunting event will be held as usual.

Led by the emperor, all the generals of the Xianbei tribe, as long as there is no war, will gather in Pingcheng to participate, which is equivalent to a large tribal carnival and gathering.

It’s not that there are no Han people and other miscellaneous people participating, but compared with those Xianbei people, most of them are just foils.

In the past, Shen Liuzhen also came out with Wu Lei, but he just held his sleeve and watched the fun aside, talking with Wu Lei from time to time, and doing nothing.

However, this time, Wu Lei called out the name and asked Xie Yuan to follow her, and told her to hunt more prey and take this opportunity to show her face in front of the elders and generals of the Xianbei tribes. This is an excellent opportunity to recommend her.

The emperor's ceremonial guard was ahead, and flags flew behind him, including logistics, guards, and some servants and eunuchs who served him. They were surrounded by 50,000 or 60,000 people followed him.

Xie Yuan and Shen Liuzhen followed closely behind the emperor's imperial stewards. Looking back, the cavalry was majestic and galloping. Unlike the solemn and rigorous teams during wars, they were very spectacular.

She even saw a few young Xianbei people gathering around the team, riding horses back and forth, chasing and playing, as if this was similar to the Han people's activities in autumn when they went out to enjoy the flowers, scenery and the moon, but it was just a hunting event.

Shi Yuhengjia moved his eyes back from Xie Yuan's face and said in a frivolous tone:

"When Chen Jiu became the throne, he was busy extinguishing the villains in the territory and winning over clan clans. How could he have the time to provoke trouble? If it weren't for the fact that Wei State had been consuming it, it would have been a good time to annex the territory of the Southern Dynasties in the early days."
