Yu Yunxi was not in a hurry to speak. Instead, she walked to the side and silently observed the Crimson Flame Army’s training.

Overall, they were all very courageous and stronger than the soldiers beside them.

‘As expected of those trained by Father…’

At this moment, a bearded man with shifty eyes ran up to Yu Yunxi and said obsequiously, “Eldest Princess, you’re here! Greetings, Eldest Princess. I’m Qi Wei. I manage the military camp here.”

Yu Yunxi responded indifferently.

Seeing Yu Yunxi’s indifference toward him, Qi Wei did not tactfully leave. Instead, he shamelessly said, “Eldest Princess, I’m very familiar with the military camp. If you want to know anything, please feel free to ask me.”

Then, Qi Wei continued to say, “Eldest Princess, you came to see the Crimson

Flame Army today, right? I’ll call General Yu Pei over now.”

Without waiting for Yu Yunxi’s reply, Qi Wei ran over to Yu Pei’s side and scolded, “General Yu, the Eldest Princess is here. Why didn’t you wait for her respectfully?”

With this, the other soldiers at the side also chimed in one after another, muttering under their breaths.

“That’s right, General Yu. The Eldest Princess is the new master of your

Crimson Flame Army. How can you ignore her?”

“General Yu, don’t you think you’re too disrespectful?”

“That’s right, that’s right. General Yu, it’s fine that you usually have a bad temper, but today, the Eldest Princess is here. She’s the daughter of the King of Zhenbei. How can you treat her like this?”

It sounded like they were persuading Yu Pei, but the mockery in their words was extremely obvious. They thought it was embarrassing that the master of the Crimson Flame Army was a woman. Even if she was the Eldest Princess, it could not change the fact that she was a woman. Moreover, she was the daughter of Princess Changning. Princess Changning was not a glorious figure in Xichu. Moreover, the reason the King of Zhenbei refused to return to the capital for so many years was also due to Princess Changning.

These soldiers’ words were undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire in the hearts of the Crimson Flame Army.

Some of the soldiers from the Crimson Flame Army were so angry that they broke the swords in their hands.

At this moment, a man in his seventies walked out of a tent and shouted angrily, “Enough. Everyone, train well. Don’t let an insignificant person affect us.”

Obviously, the insignificant person he mentioned was Yu Yunxi.

“Yes, General Hou!”

The Crimson Flame Army nodded respectfully.

‘General Hou?’

With this, Yu Yunxi guessed the identity of the other party.

General Hou was Hou Wenlin. Back then, he had accompanied the King of Zhenbei on the battlefield. He had accompanied the King of Zhenbei through many life-or-death situations. Simply put, he was someone whom the King of Zhenbei respected very much.

The King of Zhenbei did not bring Hou Wenlin when he left for the border city because he did not want Hou Wenlin to suffer in his old age.

The Crimson Flame Army held a high position in the hearts of Hou Wenlin and the others. Clearly, they did not want an ‘insignificant’ person like her to interfere.

Qi Wei ran over again and said flatteringly, “Eldest Princess, Old General Hou’s words are too much. You’re the new master of the Crimson Flame Army, after all? How could he say such a thing? I’ll definitely report him to the Emperor so that he’ll be punished.”

Yu Yunxi finally looked Qi Wei in the eye. “Lord Qi, right?”

Qi Wei hurriedly nodded. “Yes, Eldest Princess.”

“How did Lord Qi become an official? Which prince recommended you?” Yu Yunxi asked with a smile.

Qi Wei’s face stiffened immediately.

Without waiting for Qi Wei’s response, Yu Yunxi’s expression turned cold as she continued to say sternly, “I don’t care whose orders you received to sow discord between me and the generals. However, if you want to protect your life, you better keep your mouth shut. After all, it’s very easy for me to take your life.

Qi Wei’s face turned ashen immediately. He said tremblingly, “Y-yes, Eldest Princess. I, I’ll take my leave now.”

Seeing Qi Wei run away, Yu Yunxi’s expression eased. This was only her first visit to the military camp, but someone was already restless, trying to stir up trouble.

‘Are they so afraid that I’ll gain control of the Crimson Flame Army?’ At this moment, Feng Yili said from behind, “Do you need my help?”

“No need. I want to try it myself. If it doesn’t work, I’ll ask for your help,” Yu Yunxi said softly.

Subsequently, she walked toward the Crimson Flame Army.

When Yu Pei saw Yu Yunxi walking over, he said icily, “Eldest Princess, this is not your residence. If you get injured here, we won’t be able to bear the Emperor Emeritus’ anger.”

“It’s fine. If something happens, the Emperor Emeritus and I won’t blame you,” Yu Yunxi said as though she did not understand Yu Pei’s meaning or see his resistance toward her.

At this time, a few soldiers from the Crimson Flame Anger could no longer hold back.

“Old General Hou, General Yu, why do we have to be afraid of her? It’s because of her that the King of Zhenbei refused to return to the capital even after so many years. He’s a hero in our hearts, but he suffered so badly because of them. We don’t want to be her subordinates!”

“That’s right! She’s the Eldest Princess. She’s extremely noble, but our lives aren’t worth much. We’re not afraid of anything! At most, we’ll just lose our lives!”

“That’s right! Even if we’re beheaded, we won’t bow down to our enemy!”

The anger of the Crimson Flame Army was instantly ignited by these words.

All of them glared at Yu Yunxi hatefully, and many of them also surrounded her.

Jiang Ying and the others were very anxious when they saw this, worried that Yu Yunxi would be in danger.

“Your Royal Highness…”

Feng Yili’s eyes were dark, but he said, “Just wait. She has a way to deal with them.”

Feng Yili hoped that she would be able to handle them so she would gain their respect.

On the other side.

Yu Yunxi did not panic. She sighed and said, “Whether you believe it or not, my mother had never harmed anyone. My heart also aches that my father guards the border city and refuses to return to the capital. However, I still have to take over the Crimson Flame Army. The Crimson Flame Army is a special existence in the capital. How many people covet it? Whether you’re willing or not, the best option is for me to take over the army.”

Yu Pei looked at Yu Yunxi disdainfully and said, “Take over the Crimson Flame Army? Do you have the ability to do so? Are you qualified?”

Yu Pei knew that if it was not for the fact that Yu Yunxi was the Emperor Emeritus’ granddaughter, she would not have the right to stand here and talk to them today.

“Then, may I ask General Yu, what will make me qualified?” Yu Yunxi asked calmly.

“You’re not even armed. You…”

At this moment, Yu Yunxi suddenly drew the soft sword from her waist.

“I’m armed now. Let’s fight now, General Yu. What do you think?”

Without waiting for a response, Yu Yunxi attacked. Yu Pei’s gaze was cold when he regained his composure.

“Alright, then I won’t be polite!”

With that, Yu Pei took the large saber at the side and began to exchange blows with Yu Yunxi..
