Bai Qingyan looked toward Fu Ruoxi. Even if they temporarily didn't kill Fu Ruoxi, they absolutely couldn't let him return to the capital with control of the troops.
Seeing the Crown Prince silently looking at Bai Qingyan, Fu Ruoxi knew that this idea came from Bai Qingyan.
Fu Ruoxi stepped forward, respectfully saluted, and said, "Your Highness, in the Anping Camp, there are still people capable of leading the troops. There's no need to trouble Lord Dong to come. Dengzhou just faced a calamity, and Lord Dong is probably burdened with heavy duties and can't manage both ends well. I assure you with my life that even if I am not in the Anping Camp, other commanders can surely defend it."
As soon as Fu Ruoxi finished speaking, a soldier outside the camp reported, "Reporting. Outside the camp, there is a man claiming to be a Bai family guard named Lu Ping who says he has important matters to report."
