Gu Yun ignored him and turned to let Cao Chun Hua have a full look at it, spilling nonsense: "If it does not work out, I will go out and play a beauty trick myself. I'm afraid it won't be able to deal with a million soldiers, but twenty or thirty thousand are easy, isn't that right, Xiao Cao?"

Cao Chun Hua's face blushed red in an instant.

Shen Yi and Yao Zhen each turned their faces in a different direction, unable to look straight at him.

"You came just in time," Gu Yun jumped up, wrapping his arm around Cao Chun Hua's shoulders, who was blushing all the way to his ears, and pushed him to the sand table. "I have something that cannot be done by anyone but you, I wanted to ask you to run somewhere for me, help me?"

There was no telling if Marshal Gu's ingenious ‘beauty trick’ was effective towards the Westerners or not, but it was very effective on Cao Chun Hua. His face suddenly turned red again, his neck was burning hot, sweating excessively. He felt that no matter what Gu Yun said to him, he could reply 'yes yes yes' to everything.

When Cao Chun Hua came out of the Marshal tent in a daze, he finally startled. Wait a minute, didn't Yan Wang send him here to take care of Marshal?

How come as he just settled down, he was immediately tricked to the southwest border by Marshal in just a few words?

Just now, Gu Yun even told him that this was a top-class secret, as he exited the tent, he must digest it in his stomach, it could not be reported even to the Grand Council.

How was he supposed to explain this after returning!

Shen Yi personally arranged for Cao Chun Hua who had lost his soul, then turned back to find Gu Yun. Yao Zhen had already left. The light in the tent was very dim. Gu Yun put his two long legs on a bench next to him and folded his arms in front of his chest. He didn't know what he was thinking. Since he could no longer hear, he was rid of the many disturbances of being able to see and hear all four sides and could easily focus on his own thoughts.

The cold wind that surged in when Shen Yi opened the door startled him, Gu Yun looked up at him: "Is the preparation done?"

Shen Yi nodded and asked, "Do you actually want to make use of Xiao Cao, or are you afraid that he will inform His Royal Highness Yan Wang?"

"Am I one to mix up private and official affairs?" Gu Yun lifted his eyebrows, but without waiting for Shen Yi to apologize, he said again, "Both."

Shen Yi: "..."

He had never seen a person who was so divided between public and private.
