Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 384

Chapter 384: Chapter 376: Drunkenness

General Feiyu turned and stared at him for a long moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he stepped forward quickly, "Isn’t this Young Master Lu... no, no, now you’re the Lu Family Head! Old Lord Lu! Hahaha, so many years have passed, I didn’t expect to see you again!"

This General Feiyu was an old subordinate of the Sky King, and back in the day was well acquainted with Lu Shen too. Although they hadn’t met in years, he recognized him immediately.

Lu Shen warmly patted his shoulder, "Come to my place for dinner tonight, let’s catch up properly!"

"Alright!" Feiyu agreed readily, then turned respectfully to Shen Tang and saluted, "Your Majesty Night Glow, I shall first take count of the troops, excuse me."

Shen Tang nodded with a smile, "Great General, go ahead and attend to your duties."

After Feiyu had walked away, Lu Shen finally turned his attention to her and exclaimed, "Your Majesty and Xiao’er are truly impressive, sneaking off to the Yunding Empire for aid quietly, I never expected it!"

"With so many people in the camp, rumors could spread easily, even so, a spy informed on us, and we were ambushed halfway through. Luckily, it was a close call but no harm came." Shen Tang sighed, "When Ah Xiao and I arrived at the Yunding Empire, we saw his birth mother, the Sky King partially agreed to send troops because of Ah Xiao."

"Ah Hui... she’s someone who values blood ties deeply." Lu Shen sighed softly, his face, still showing traces of youthful elegance despite the wear of time, taking on a complicated look, "Xiao’er is her biological child, she certainly wouldn’t stand by idly."

As he spoke, he turned to look around but didn’t see his son, "Right, where’s Xiao’er? Didn’t he return?"

Lu Shen suddenly became anxious, hoping he wasn’t being held hostage by Tian Hui!

He thought it must be that, why else would she dispatch troops so easily! Turned out it was to take his son?!

Shen Tang smiled and reassured him, "Don’t worry, Old Lord Lu, the Sky King only kept Lu Xiao to participate in the family’s trials, Ah Xiao will be back in a few days."

Only upon hearing this did Lu Shen feel relieved. He remembered something and hurriedly asked, "By the way, Your Majesty, you just mentioned there’s a spy selling military secrets in the camp? I recall that our intelligence has been leaked several times mysteriously lately, which cost us the chance to counterattack and led to severe losses when encircled by the enemy."

"We must expose this traitor!"

Shen Tang queried the system in her mind, "Have there been any leads on those key suspects I’ve asked you to monitor lately?"

She and Lu Xiao’s secret trip was known only to Jia Lan and a few generals in the army.

Jia Lan absolutely couldn’t have betrayed her, the traitor must be among those generals.

The system cheerfully reported, [Report to host, I’ve thoroughly investigated, the spy is Major General Luo Long, he fled in the chaos after learning the host had returned alive.]

"Where did he run to?"

[Location being determined... just passed the canal of Nanhe City.]

Shen Tang directly instructed the system to teleport her there and deal with the traitor.

After this war, not only did they temporarily repel the rebel army but also killed two major leaders of the independent warlords, regaining a large amount of lost territory.

The entire nation rejoiced.

Public sentiment and the Monarch’s prestige increased significantly all over the country!

Shen Tang held a grand victory banquet.

She didn’t usually like drinking, but she was truly happy today, toasting with the soldiers and General Tianyu, inadvertently drinking quite a bit.

Shen Tang’s cheeks were flushed red from drinking, her vision blurred, she walked unsteadily, as if she might fall at any moment.

Xiao Jin hurried over to hold Shen Tang, snatched the drink from her hand and downed it, saying to the crowd, "Her Majesty can’t hold her liquor well, I’ll drink this toast on her behalf for everyone!"

Shen Tang leaned her face against his chest, grumbling unhappily, "I’m not drunk, give me the drink."

"Look at your face, red as a monkey’s butt, and you’re saying you’re not drunk? If you drink more and get sick to your stomach, you’ll suffer later." Xiao Jin scolded softly, "Honestly, don’t you know your own limits?"

Xue Yinzhou came over and carried Shen Tang away.
