An Ning learned about Xiao Jinxing eliminating the traitors and Feng Xiyun's battered return to the Wounded Soldier Camp on the second day of deployment, from a soldier returning from the front lines.
It was only then that she realized Xiao Jinxing had used Feng Xiyun as bait to eliminate the traitors.
The strategy had evidently worked very well.
Now that the camp was free of traitors, and with the Cang Kingdom suddenly choosing to take the initiative to engage in battle, they knew they were no match for Daxuan yet still opted for a frontal assault. It showed the Crown Prince of Cang Kingdom to be an impatient and short-sighted individual, completely outmatched by Xiao Jinxing. This battle was going much more smoothly than she expected.
However, the smoother it went, the more uneasy An Ning felt.
Too easily achieved, instead it led to overthinking.
An Ning felt she should trust Xiao Jinxing.
If she could think of it, Xiao Jinxing certainly could as well.
