Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 1233: Chapter 1234: No Choice, That’s Just the Way She Is

Xiao Changyi first glanced at the four youngsters, then he too closed his eyes. But after a long while, he opened them again.

Sleep eluded him.

He also didn’t know if his wife had eliminated any of the thirteen new recruits.

Of course, what he mainly missed was his wife.

It wasn’t until the middle of the night that Xiao Changyi started to feel drowsy and closed his eyes once more, slowly drifting off into dreamland.

Just as Xiao Changyi fell asleep, over at the women’s military camp, An Jing got up, dressed in Night Clothes.

In her tent were thirteen young officers, also clad in Night Clothes.

Suddenly, Ye Zhi walked in, also dressed in Night Clothes and holding a piece of black cloth in her hand.

As soon as Ye Zhi entered, she anxiously said to An Jing, ”Wild Goose Jade is too alert. When I secretly got up, I woke her. What should we do?”

An Jing didn’t see it as an issue, ”This test is designed to measure their reactions in the face of danger. We’re too familiar with Wild Goose Jade. We’re sure to be satisfied with her reaction; there’s no need to test her. Waking her is just waking her, as long as she doesn’t reveal us at the time. She’s smart. Seeing you sneak out, she surely guessed that we were about to do something to them. She won’t expose us.”

With that, Ye Zhi was relieved.

”Six of you, follow Ye Zhi,” An Jing casually selected six youngsters in Night Clothes for Ye Zhi.

The six young officers immediately accepted the command: ”Yes, Princess.”

”The rest of you, follow me,” An Jing then pointed to the remaining seven.

”Yes, Princess,” the other seven responded and promptly accepted the order.

”Move out!” An Jing shouted the command, and everyone, including herself, began to march out while tying the black cloths over their faces.

An Jing led the seven young officers towards Su Chengyuan’s tent while Ye Zhi took the six officers to her own tent.

Taking advantage of everyone sleeping, the young officers stealthily entered and easily captured all thirteen new recruits.

They were young officers, not just ordinary soldiers, and they had skills - quite good ones at that. An Jing had specially transferred them from Wolf Camp.

After being awakened by Ye Zhi, Tobanya had not gone back to sleep. Seeing people sneak in, and with such perfect timing, Tobanya truly guessed that An Jing might have planned something against them, and she complied with being captured without any resistance.

The thirteen young officers not only captured them but also held knives to their necks.

Yan Xiaohong, Zhou Piaopiao, and Ma Guihua had never seen such a formation and were terrified to the point of shaking like chaff.

Su Chengyuan was also scared, but after all, she was a Princess who had seen much of the world; unlike Yan Xiaohong and the others, she did not tremble but stood rigid, not daring to move an inch.

Tobanya knew these people were probably sent by An Jing. She was very calm and indifferent, but even if she didn’t know these people were sent by An Jing, she would still be calm and indifferent. It was just her personality.

However, if she didn’t know they were sent by An Jing, she would have resisted, even considering rescuing others. Now there was no need to think so much, just cooperate with being captured.

Shi Shi was actually awakened by Ye Zhi as well, but she kept pretending to be asleep instead of letting Ye Zhi know by showing she was awake like Tobanya. She guessed the people holding knives to their necks were sent by An Jing to test them, so at this moment, she was unusually composed.
