Returning after a three-year escape from death, the tyrant has turned evil.

Chapter 190 Preparing to Set Fire
Song Yi stared longingly at his wine flask. Seeing this, Lang Xiao said, "You want it? I have another one here."

After saying that, he tossed the wine flask next to him to Song Yi, who quickly caught it and asked, "Is there any more?"

Wolf Owl frowned. "One isn't enough?"

Song Yi immediately pointed to the pattern on it and said, "The pattern is different. Do you even know what collecting is?"

Wolf Owl thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "There is an even prettier one that you would definitely like. It was given to me by my mother before."

Song Yi was taken aback. "Then you..."

"It doesn't matter, it's just a wine bag, you can keep it and play with it."

After saying that, he stood up, walked to a wooden box, rummaged through it, and handed it to Song Yi.

The wine vessel was unusually large, and Song Yi already had an idea in mind. She tentatively asked, "When is your next battle?"

"I'm going tomorrow, and this trip might take a while. You won't see me tomorrow night."

Song Yi was taken aback, thinking that this was a great opportunity, and asked, "So soon? You can come back the day after tomorrow, right?"

"Correct."

Song Yi pursed her lips, mimicking his gesture, and hung the wine pouch at her waist. Suddenly, she stood up and said:

"Before you leave tomorrow, shall I cook you a meal?"

Wolf Owl was stunned, and asked somewhat awkwardly, "Okay, okay, but can you cook?"

"I am from the Central Plains, so of course I eat the home-style dishes that people from the Central Plains often eat."

As if to hide his emotions, Wolf Owl tilted his head back and took a big gulp of wine, saying, "I know, hurry up and eat all this roasted meat. Look at your little body, you're too skinny."

As if to thank her for her actions the next day, Wolf Owl took the initiative to grill a plate of meat for Song Yi, handed it to her, and commanded, "Eat it all."

Song Yi took it and gave him a deep look.

"Thank you, you're so kind to me."

"Is that all?!"

He suddenly raised his voice, then, seeing Song Yi staring at him in surprise, he abruptly lowered it, muttering:

"If I treat you even better in the future, won't you be so touched?"

The Khan didn't actually love his mother that much, but his mother taught him when he was young that when he married, he must listen to his wife. A man who listens to his wife will never suffer a loss in this life.

I don't know why, but I suddenly thought of these words.

Wolf Owl didn't drink too much tonight, fearing it would delay tomorrow's progress, and went to bed early.

Seeing this, Song Yi tiptoed over and took the key from his waist.

The next morning, Song Yi woke up even earlier than Lang Xiao. Seeing the jar of oil from the previous night in the tent, Song Yi felt a little relieved. He then hung up his wine pouch and went outside.

There were few people around at this time, so she went to another shed. Seeing that no one was around, she quickly walked to the large vat and filled both wine sacs to the brim. Then she rolled up her sleeves and started a fire to cook.

She really only cooked some simple home-style dishes. The wine pouch at her waist was too heavy, making her feel a little uncomfortable. After quickly stir-frying two dishes, a maid came in and, seeing her, said in surprise:

Why are you cooking?

"Ah, the young master is going to war soon, so I..."

The maid gave her a strange look and said, "Young Master is leaving soon."

Song Yi was taken aback, and quickly pretended to be anxious as she ran over.

At this time, many people were already waiting outside the tent, but Wolf Owl was still inside and had not come out.

Song Yi hurriedly squeezed inside and saw that he had already changed into his armor and was anxiously waiting for her. "You've finally arrived! Everyone outside is urging me to come!"

Song Yi quickly said, "Then you can go first. I didn't expect to be so slow."

Wolf Owl glanced at the two plates of food she was holding and stammered, "I haven't eaten anything yet, I'm starving."

Song Yi was taken aback, then smiled broadly, picked up her chopsticks, stood in front of Lang Xiao, tiptoed slightly, picked up a piece of food and held it to his mouth.

"what--"

Wolf Owl didn't seem to mind her coaxing-like behavior at all. His cheeks suddenly flushed, and he opened his mouth to take a bite, mumbling, "Your cooking... is barely acceptable."

Song Yi didn't say anything, but just kept feeding him bite after bite, as if afraid that he would really leave hungry.

There was still one dish left to eat, but unexpectedly, Wolf Owl suddenly took the chopsticks from her hand, quickly ate a couple of bites, gave her a deep look, and said, "I'm leaving."

"and many more!"

Seeing that he was about to leave, Song Yi quickly turned around and walked over to him, gently hugging him from behind.

Wolf Owl shuddered. "You..."

Her hand gently rested on his injured abdomen, and she whispered:

"Your injury hasn't healed yet, so don't get hurt again next time."

The old wound that Song Yi's fingers had just gently touched now felt faintly numb and itchy.

"Little Lord!"

The deputy general outside the tent called out again.

Wolf Owl then seemed to wake from a dream.

Then, she took two steps back decisively, looked at him with a smile, and said, "I'll wait for you to come back."

Wolf Owl didn't dare to meet Song Yi's eyes in the end and practically fled.

As the sound of horses' hooves faded into the distance, the smile in Song Yi's eyes vanished quickly. She immediately took down the wine flask and placed it next to a jar of oil that she had brought over the night before, coldly staring at them.

We must succeed tonight, otherwise all our efforts to hide will be in vain if she is discovered.

Thinking of this, she touched the key hidden in her sleeve again and let out a deep breath.

During the day, people would bring fresh grass and leaves to feed the cattle and sheep, but at night, no one would guard the area.

Song Yi changed into a dark blue dress, a color that was not conspicuous, especially in the dark of night.

Night fell, and it had only been a short while since it got dark.

She took the keys and went outside.

Thanks to Wolf Owl, she can now walk around outside the camp without anyone deliberately watching her.

Song Yi felt much freer. She first strolled to the iron gate, unlocked it with the key, and didn't rush to lower the chain. From a distance, the gate still looked securely locked. She immediately turned around and went back.

Song Yi waited until midnight, when everyone was extremely sleepy.
There are torches inside the tent; Song Yi can simply carry one over when the time comes.

child time.

The conversations outside gradually subsided, many people had already drifted off to sleep, and the soldiers on night watch also became somewhat lax.

Song Yi's heart pounded like a drum. She knew she had to do something big tonight. If it succeeded, they would lose their reserves of cattle and grain, just like when their grain transport route was blocked, leaving them in a predicament.

Her hands trembled slightly as she hung the two wine sachets filled with oil around her waist, and then carried the jar of oil out.
