But not long after, the reinforcements for the Huan Army arrived. Originally, with the increase of two hundred thousand troops to four hundred thousand, the Huan Army Commander Lu Chen very decisively chose to give up on his assault, bypassing the Mei City and continued to move eastwards, heading straight for the Gurao County on the west side of the Chizhou.

The battle in front was unfavorable, as the Huan Army was advancing at an incredible speed. Above and below the Ann Country, there was a field of panic. The reinforcements continued to arrive at the Zhenjiang, as if they were on horseback. They requested for the imperial government to send reinforcements as soon as possible.

It was precisely under these circumstances that Tang Yin decided to head south to the battlefield where the battle of Ann Country And Hui Country would take place, but the matter between him and Yin Rou had not been resolved yet. Tang Yin felt that this would be a good opportunity to head south together with Yin Rou, even if it was to come out to relax.

From the way he saw it, Huan Army and Ann Army were about the same, and couldn't withstand a single blow, and wasn't even worth mentioning. The earlier stages of this battle would definitely be very easy, and when the Chuan Country enters the battle, it would also be timely for Yin Rou to be sent back to the Zhenjiang.

Tang Yin had asked Xiao Min to help him convey his intentions to Yin Rou, but he never expected that Yin Rou would actually agree to it.

Although the ministers of the court did not think that it was a good idea for the King to bring the Princess along to the southern battlefield, since it was too dangerous, there was one thing for the Princess to do, and that was to let everyone know that the Emperor and the Prince both supported Feng Country to aid them.

After a while, Tang Yin and Yin Rou were escorted by Directly Subordinate Army and left the Zhenjiang. They travelled all the way south to Wa Cang County, where the Mo Country and Battle-tested Army as well as the numerous Feng Country and Generals s were currently stationed.

From Zhenjiang to Wa Cang Prefecture, one had to pass through half of Dragon Stream County and the entire Cloud Central County. It was neither close nor far, if it was an urgent march, they would be able to reach there within ten to half a month.

Tang Yin was not in a hurry to reinforce Ann Country this time, or rather, it was Military-political Hall's idea. The deeper one went into the borders of the Ann Country, the more advantageous it would be to their own side. During the battle, they could intercept a large number of Huan Army within the borders of the Ann Country, close doors and kill off all the enemy forces, thus minimizing the loss of Huan Country's military might.

Tang Yin thought that the advice from the Military-political Hall was feasible, so when he went south, he did not rush there.

Yun Zhong county was considered to be one of the most beautiful counties with the most beautiful scenery. There were many mountains and rivers, as well as many famous historical sites.

On this day, Directly Subordinate Army's team arrived at the borders of the Liting County in the Central Cloud County. Here, the mountains were densely covered, and green water flowed through. Within the mountain ridges, dense fog curled up. It was truly like a paradise on earth.

Seeing that, Tang Yin's mood became good, and ordered the convoy to stop, then he got out of the carriage, raised his head, and looked around at the beautiful scenery. After observing for a while, he asked the Earth Web scout beside him, "What kind of place is this?"

The Earth Web scout was from a foreign background, and had roamed the world. He was extremely familiar with the environment of the Mo Country. He respectfully said to Tang Yin, "Reporting to my King, this is the territory of Le Ting County. Another fifty kilometers to the south will be Yao City."

"Oh!" Tang Yin responded as he looked at the surrounding beautiful mountains and lofty ridges, and exclaimed: "The scenery here is far more beautiful than the Zhenjiang!"

This spy's name was Zhao An Ran, and he looked to be in his thirties. His figure was small and thin, but his eyes were unusually bright, making him look extremely intelligent.

He rolled his eyes and said, "Great King, Yao City is near the Clouds Immortal Realm. The scenery there is a hundred times more beautiful than this."

"Hmm? In the clouds? What kind of place is that? " Tang Yin looked curiously at Zhao An.

Zhao An hurriedly said: "The Cloud Realm is located in the mountains, if you want to enter, you have to first take a boat and pass through a cave. Although it is a little troublesome, I guarantee that the scenery inside will not disappoint the King, if the King were to bring his highness along, I believe that your highness's mood would also be a lot more cheerful."

By saying this, Tang Yin's heart had truly been moved. The latter pondered for a moment, then raised her head and said, "Let's go to Yao City first!"

Yao City, a city within the borders of the Cloud County, is built on top of a mountain range. Although the mountain range is not steep, it is still an incredible sight for the people to build a city of this size.

The Mayor of Yao City was a Mo man, her name was Zhang Sixian, and she was a middle-aged man who had opened 40 gates. Knowing that the King and the Princess were about to arrive, he had led all the officials of Yao City to wait at the foot of the mountain.

Tang Yin and Yin Rou got in two separate carriages. The former wasn't wearing any King's Robe, and was dressed casually. The latter was also wearing a light white dress with white sand on her head, covering her face.

The two of them were not on the same carriage, so they both came out of the carriage at the same time. As Tang Yin's carriage was in front of them, he intentionally stopped, and waited for Yin Rou to walk to her side before walking in side by side with her.

He walked forward and said: "Entering the city is a mountain road, it is hard to travel by horse, we have to walk up the mountain. If Rou Er finds it tiring, I can ask the Mayor to prepare a sedan."

Yin Rou shook her head, and said softly: "There is no need to go through all that trouble, we will always be riding on cars along the way, coming down for a walk will be good."

Tang Yin said: "I've worked hard the entire time because I was afraid that your body wouldn't be able to take it."

Yin Rou looked up at him, then immediately lowered her head and said: "I am not that delicate."

Tang Yin nodded and did not speak further. From the Zhenjiang to Yao City, the number of conversations between him and Yin Rou could be counted with one hand. Originally, he had planned to use this opportunity to head south to fight to improve their relationship.

When Tang Yin and Yin Rou reached the officials of Yao City, with Mayor Zhang Si Xian leading the group, they kneeled on the ground and said in unison: "This humble subject greets Your Highness, King and Princess."

Tang Yin waved his hand with a smile, and said indifferently: "Master Zhang, please get up, everyone, get up!"0

"Your majesty! Your majesty!" Zhang Xixian and the others stood up one after another. He took a step forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Great King, the mountain roads are rugged, and this humble subject has already prepared a sedan. I invite the Great King and the Princess to enter the sedan chair."

Tang Yin looked at Yin Rou beside him, waved his hand and said, "There's no need, I and Princess can just walk up the mountain."

Zhang Xixian did not dare to say anything else and hurriedly bowed in acknowledgement.

Tang Yin and Yin Rou were walking in front, Zhang Si Xian and the rest were following behind, there were also a large number of guards protecting the area, Hidden Arrow Crew wearing black clothes with blades at their waists shuttled back and forth in the crowd.

The road into the city was somewhat rugged, but it was not steep. On the other hand, the ground was covered with gravel, making it impossible to tread carefully. With Yao City's terrain, if the enemies wanted to forcefully attack him, that would be an extremely difficult matter, but taking down Yao City without losing a single soldier, was Mayor Zhang Sixian's own initiative to surrender. It was precisely because of this, that he obtained the Feng Country's reserve, and continued to be the Mayor of Yao City.

On both sides of the mountain road, there were many cliffs. The deeper they went, the deeper the cliffs became. However, the scenery on both sides of the mountain road was getting more and more beautiful. Tang Yin and Yin Rou walked shoulder to shoulder, both of them silent and silent on the way, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

In the end, Tang Yin was the first to break the silence, pointing to the town s above, and said: "If Yao City had enough vans, no matter how strong the enemies are, they would still be unable to get even half a step closer to Yao City!"

Other than military matters, he could not find anything else to talk about.

Hearing his words, Yin Rou subconsciously raised her head to look up, and asked: "Did a lot of people die during the attack on Yao City?"

Tang Yin laughed, and said: "Mayor Zhang Sixian is a man of her words, and took the initiative to surrender, thus, our army did not waste any energy to take down Yao City."

The corner of Yin Rou's mouth raised and she could not help but laugh. Rather than saying that Zhang Si Xian was a man of righteousness, it would be better to say that his Feng Army was approaching menacingly, scaring the other party into voluntarily surrendering. Tang Yin's words sounded like she was exaggerating, but in reality, he was still praising herself.

Because she was covered by a veil, Tang Yin could not see her smile, but seeing that Yin Rou responded and did not speak any further, he could only sigh helplessly in his heart.

When she was halfway through the journey, she already felt exhausted. Fortunately, the scenery on both sides of the mountain road became more and more charming, which also became the motivation for her to continue walking forward.

It was unknown if it was because she was too focused on admiring the scenery by the roadside or because she was too exhausted, but when she stepped on a protruding rock, her feet suddenly slipped. Unable to stand still, she fell backwards.

Yin Rou screamed out in fear and closed her eyes. She was ready to endure the pain of falling to the ground, but the pain did not come for a long time.

After she slowly opened her eyes, she turned around to look again. Tang Yin's bright tiger eyes looked at her unblinkingly, his handsome face also carrying a hint of a smile.

Yin Rou blushed red and hurriedly stood up from Tang Yin's embrace. After that, she lowered her head in embarrassment and silently looked at the tip of her feet.

Tang Yin didn't say much and only said softly, "You don't have to be on flat ground on the mountain roads. Be careful." While saying that, he turned around and called out to Zhang Sixian, "Master Zhang, bring the palanquin you prepared here. Princess is tired."

Just as Zhang Si Xian replied, Yin Rou anxiously said: "I'm not tired yet ?"

"Your clothes are all wet. Aren't you tired?" As he spoke, Tang Yin even specially raised his palm to shake it in front of Yin Rou.

Yin Rou's face became even redder as he lightly bit his lower lip and blinked his large eyes at Tang Yin.

Very quickly, Zhang Si Xian ordered his men to carry the palanquin over. Yin Rou did not reject it, and carefully sat on it.

Tang Yin and Yin Rou's arrival was welcomed by the citizens of Yao City, but Tang Yin knew in his heart that the majority of the citizens were welcoming the Empire's princess, Yin Rou, and not the Feng King.

It wasn't his first time passing through Yao City, but he had never seen such a lively scene before when he passed by.
