Moxi asked Chen Wende if he drank again last night, and also detailed the disadvantages of drinking, and persuaded Chen Wende to take good care of himself if he wanted to accomplish what he said. Chen Wende was very happy to see that Moxi knew how to care about him.
Because of Zhong Yuqi's support, Wan Jiagui is now bringing an army of 100,000 to attack Qingzhou City. Chen Wende is not afraid of this battle, and tells Moxi not to have illusions about his old lover Wan Jiagui. Although Moxi didn't understand the art of war, she also thought that it might be difficult for Chen Wende to get out of the way this time, and she began to worry about Chen Wende's safety.
Chen Wende asked Moxi to perform the duties of the general's wife and asked Moxi to sew socks for his brothers. In this way, the brothers can wear the socks sewn by the general's wife to warm their hearts and fight against the enemy with more strength. Moxi was forced to agree to sew socks for 40,000 soldiers.
The next day, Wan Jiagui brought people to attack the city, and Chen Wende watched the battle at the gate, full of confidence in his soldiers. As expected, Wan Jiagui's army failed in the first battle. Wan Jiagui was very disappointed when he saw the battalion soldiers gathered for gambling and drinking while patrolling at night. Feng Yao saw that Wan Jiagui was losing weight in preparation for the war, so she helped him prepare food. He also persuaded Wan Jiagui that if he wanted to rescue Moxi, he must integrate the whole army and prohibit it. However, if the discipline of the army is corrected, it will inevitably offend the forces behind the reinforcements from all walks of life, and it will also affect Wan Jiagui's career. Although Wan Jiagui knew that Feng Yao was irritating him, he was not afraid of disadvantages in his official career, and would try to straighten out military discipline.
Chen Wende was very happy to win the first battle, and asked Moxi to take the socks he made to inspect the barracks. The soldiers got the socks sewn by the general's wife, and they were all full of confidence, and they were united and willing to go to the battlefield. Chen Wende told Moxi that the soldiers are about to fight hard, and using a pair of socks can boost morale. He also asked Moxi to take the maid to continue sewing socks. In fact, Chen Wende's move was also to distract Moxi's energy, hoping that she would not think about running away every day.
Wan Jiagui killed more than a dozen people who violated military discipline in one go in order to gain prestige. Wu Yin reminded him that this action offended many forces. It may be difficult to gain a foothold in the court in the future, but Wan Jiagui is not afraid of this matter. Wu Yin finally reminded Wan Jiagui that the war has been stalemate for a while, and there is not much time left for Wan Jiagui.
Chen Wende personally went to fight the enemy, and Wan Jiagui also went off to fight Chen Wende in person. The two fought evenly for several rounds, but Wan Jiagui saw that his subordinates suffered heavy casualties, so he decided to bring his troops back to the camp, but before he left, he shot an arrow. Chen Wende was hurt.
Moxi wakes up in the middle of the night and sees Chen Wende lying beside him, and seeing Chen Wende injured because he went to the battlefield by himself, Moxi accuses Chen Wende of being too aggressive, but as the commander of the first army, he took the risk to fight. Moxi knew that Wan Jiagui would be dismissed at most if he was defeated, and Chen Wende would lose his head if he was defeated. She was worried about Chen Wende's safety. But Chen Wende said that although he was injured, he also severely defeated the enemy. Wan Jiagui failed to lead the army, and Zhong Yuqi might not spare him lightly.
Wu Yin came to find Wan Jiagui, hoping that he could lead the army to obey his command, but Wan Jiagui naturally refused to agree easily. Threatening Wu Yin's life not to do anything harmful to the court and the people, otherwise he will not let it go. Because Wan Jiagui refused to cooperate, Wu Yin decided to secretly try to make Wan Jiagui abdicate.
Because Chen Wende was jealous of Moxi, Moxi couldn't find a reason for Chen Wende's anger. Xiao Wu pointed out that Chen Wende was devoted to Moxi, but he couldn't feel Moxi's heart. Only then did Moxi learn that Chen Wende cared about who he liked in his heart.
When Chen Wende went to the foundry, he learned that many of his comrades were sick in the past three days, so he arranged for a doctor to come quickly for diagnosis and treatment.
