Chapter 380: Chapter 380 Cross-Dressed Female General VS Stunning Vixen (Part Two) Chapter 380: Chapter 380 Cross-Dressed Female General VS Stunning Vixen (Part Two) By the ti she lifted the curtain and went out, she found that bonfires had already been lit outside, and the soldiers each held a bowl of wine in their hands, just waiting for her.
“General, today, with so many of us here, we must drink you under the table!”
“Right! Today we must let loose with the General!”
“Co, General, a toast to you!”
Gu Shengyin laughed as she swatted away a jar of wine, lifted it up with both hands, and said with a loud laugh, “Alright, you rascals, looks like you’ve conspired to gang up on ! You’d best pray that I fall down today because if not, on the training field tomorrow, we’ll see who’s who one by one!”
Her words made many faces reveal a look of apprehension, and Deputy General Zhang Yuan saw this and burst out laughing, “Don’t be scared by the General, folks. Are we really not enough to bring him down?”
Everyone burst into laughter.
Gu Shengyin went along with the festivities, drinking down bowl after bowl. She enjoyed this atmosphere; she would have to return to that detestable Capital City tomorrow, so if there was wine tonight, why not get drunk!

“Her Royal Highness the Princess, General Fu’s army is nearly at the city gates,” the maid personally serving Jiang Shuhe reported Fu Yunzhen’s movents to her.
She had thought that Her Royal Highness the Princess was anxious because she was about to et her fiancé, not knowing that her mistress’s mind was not on this at all.
Jiang Shuhe held her handkerchief tightly in her hand, feeling sowhat scared. She knew the Emperor trusted Fu Yunzhen greatly, even praising him before the court as “a pillar of the state.” If the Emperor learned what she had done…
Jiang Shuhe turned pale. Even though she was favored, she estimated the Emperor might still discard her.
For a mont, she considered calling off the assassination.
But then she rembered her cousin, and thought, if Fu Yunzhen did not die, how would she ever have the chance to marry her cousin? With this in mind, she gradually cald down.
Fu Yunzhen, bla it on your being such an eyesore, blocking the Princess’s path!
At that mont, Gu Shengyin was very clear that among those people lining the streets to welco her near the city gates, there lurked the assassins sent by the Second Princess, Jiang Shuhe, to take her life.
However, Fu Yunzhen was not reputed to be the foremost martial artist of the court for nothing, and this ti Gu Shengyin was well prepared; Jiang Shuhe’s plans were dood to fail.
Here it cos!
Gu Shengyin’s ears twitched, and she leaned back in the saddle, dodging an arrow that ca flying from nowhere. At the sa ti, the bright silver spear which had never left her hand drew a cold arc of light under the sunlight, aiming directly at an approaching assassin.
The spear shot out like a streak of cold lightning, swift and unpredictable.
It was a fatal strike.
At the sa ti, the deputy generals and guards behind her also drew their weapons, encircling the attackers. Clearly, they had been prepared.
“Leave a survivor! I want to see, right by the gates of the Imperial City, under the shadow of the Son of Heaven, who dares to be so audacious!” Gu Shengyin’s brows shot up, her eyes cold and her tone full of killing intent as she ordered sternly.
“Yes!”
“Princess, sothing terrible has happened!” said the maid sent out to scout, rushing in with a face full of panic.
Could it be a success? Jiang Shuhe stood up, trying hard to suppress the joy welling up within her, and asked with a worried face, “What happened?”
The maid replied, “Your Highness, the maid has just heard the news that the Deputy General has been attacked on his way back to the city!”
Jiang Shuhe thought to herself, as expected, but she quickly continued to inquire, “And the General? Is he hard?”
