After refusing marriage, she was pampered by the prince who acted as a shield.

Chapter 328: Meeting General Li

"Ruo Ruo, you should go back now. Don't worry, I'll be careful." Lin Rusi waved her hand, her eyes full of gratitude.

She seemed to come back to life all of a sudden.

Seeing this, Ye Ruoruo felt a little melancholy as she watched her leave in the carriage until the carriage completely disappeared from her sight.

Throughout the journey, Lin Rusi kept glancing out of the carriage, feeling uneasy as if something was about to happen.

However, since they hadn't arrived in Jiangnan yet, she didn't want to worry unnecessarily.

Upon arriving in Jiangnan, she did not rush to find Li Jingyang.

Instead, they first gathered information in the city, and teahouses were the most suitable place.

Holding the heavy metal in her hand, Lin Rusi felt a mix of emotions.

The emperor did not send troops, but gave himself the tiger tally, which means that it was inconvenient for him to send troops, but he knew about the situation in Jiangnan.

The tiger tally was given to her so she could find outside help, but she hasn't found any yet. How is she supposed to find Li Jingyang?

Lin Rusi felt a little irritated.

Thinking this, she came back to her senses and looked up: "Boss, I heard that King Jinglie came here these past few days. Is he going to start a war? I wanted to see the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan this time."

Lin Rusi's words contained a hint of regret, and the shopkeeper, upon hearing this, quickly explained, "Yes, Prince Jinglie is indeed here, but I heard that he was recuperating here because an assassin was injured. You don't need to worry."

"Let me tell you, this is the best time to visit Jiangnan!"

"What? You're injured?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Rusi suddenly raised her voice, her eyes filled with worry.

She looked directly at the shopkeeper, who was taken aback and paused for a moment: "Miss, why are you so concerned about Prince Jinglie?"

"I was just worried that I had come at the wrong time," Lin Rusi forced a smile.

She's only been gone a short time, how could she be injured?

Lin Rusi didn't know how Ye Qing took care of him; perhaps others didn't know, but she was perfectly clear that Li Jingyang must have been injured because of the foreign prince.

It seems she must hurry and find outside help, otherwise His Highness will be in danger every day.

In fact, Lin Rusi had already figured it out on the way here. She could no longer rely on the people in the capital. If she wanted to find outside help, she could only rely on the two generals on the frontier.

She heard that there was a General Li on the frontier who was now guarding the rear. He should be free now and could lead his troops out to provide support.

Looks like I have no choice but to give it a try!

After finishing the last sip of tea, Lin Rusi's eyes hardened.

She put down the silver and turned to leave.

The shop owner glanced at Lin Rusi a couple more times, then shook his head. This person was really strange; she didn't seem like someone who came here to have fun at all.

Lin Rusi still had the tiger tally in her possession, so her journey to the military camp was exceptionally smooth.

Women have always been looked down upon in military camps. If it weren't for the tiger tally she was carrying, no one would have paid her any attention.

Therefore, Lin Rusi's journey to the military camp was quite smooth.

The man who brought her in was a tall, strong boy who had probably just joined the army this year and seemed a little embarrassed about being around women all of a sudden.

"Your Highness, please wait a moment, I will go and inform General Li."

The boy left quickly, but Lin Rusi wasn't in a hurry and waited quietly at the door.

Not long after, the boy returned, and there was still some guilt in his eyes as he looked at Lin Rusi: "Your Highness, our general is busy with other matters and is afraid he can't spare the time. How about I arrange for you to stay in a safe place first?"

"What does this mean? The situation is urgent! I need to see General Li right now!"

Lin Rusi frowned, a hint of displeasure in her eyes.

The situation is urgent; how could she possibly have time to settle in first?

She longed to see General Li immediately and explain the situation in Jiangnan to him.

"The general is quite busy right now, and I haven't been able to see him, so..."

The boy had only been there a short time, and he looked a little embarrassed.

Not knowing how to take Lin Rusi to see General Li, the two were at a loss.

A familiar yet delighted voice came from behind.

"Your Highness, what brings you here?"

The speaker was Li Xiao Kui, who ran over excitedly.

Upon confirming that the person was Lin Rusi, her eyes were filled with surprise and delight: "Your Highness, have you come to pick me up?"

But after saying that, he shook his head again: "No, I haven't made any contributions yet, so naturally I can't go back with the princess. I wonder what brings the princess here this time."

"Li Xiao Kui, the matter is urgent, and I don't know how to explain it to you, but I must see General Li now, it's very urgent. Is there any way I can see him?"

Li Xiao Kui pondered for a moment, then nodded: "There is a way. The general just asked me to prepare some things to take over. Why don't you come with me? I'd like to take you to see General Li. That shouldn't be considered overstepping my bounds."

Lin Rusi was pleasantly surprised and immediately nodded, following Li Xiaokui's steps. The two of them entered General Li's tent together.

At this moment, General Li was looking at the military documents in his hand with great concentration when he saw Li Xiao Kui arrive.

Just as he was about to say something, he glanced to the side and saw Lin Rusi following behind him.

"Who are you? How can a woman be allowed in the army?"

Lin Rusi didn't bother with any further beating around the bush and directly took out the tiger tally: "Seeing this tiger tally is like seeing the Emperor! General Li, I am Princess Jinglie. I have come here to request that you send troops with the Emperor's decree to support Jiangnan!"

"Jiangnan?"

General Li was somewhat surprised and murmured to himself, not knowing what Lin Rusi meant by those words.

He immediately frowned and said in a low voice, "What does Princess Jinglie mean by this?"

"Time is of the essence, and there is no time to explain to you. However, the foreign king is colluding with the people of the Western Regions and is now preparing to take over Jiangnan. Prince Jinglie was seriously injured in Jiangnan and urgently needs support. I have come here on the Emperor's orders, and this tiger tally was given to me by the Emperor."

General Li immediately stood up, his eyes filled with anxiety: "I see. Your Highness, this matter cannot be delayed. I will give the order immediately to prepare to lead troops to Jiangnan."

Lin Rusi breathed a sigh of relief, but then she suddenly remembered something and shook her head: "Wait! General, this matter cannot be given. I'm afraid there might be some of the king's spies in the army. It's better not to say anything."

"how is this possible?"

General Li was somewhat displeased. How could there possibly be spies among his soldiers?

Everyone who had gone through thick and thin with him immediately shook their heads: "That's utter nonsense!"

Lin Rusi also wanted to explain, but she didn't expect the other party to be so stubborn. She immediately said, "General, how can you be so sure that there are no traitors in the army? If something big is ruined, can you bear the responsibility?"

General Li disdained women's involvement in military affairs, so naturally he didn't have much respect for Lin Rusi.

If Lin Rusi weren't Princess Jinglie's wife, he would never have given her such a kind look.
