"Is it the tail you brought here?" Xiao Ruyi asked Yan Hui.
"How is that possible! We two slept in the trees during the day and walked in the dark at night. We didn't even notice a group of soldiers following us." Yan Hui retorted with his neck stiff. They were not important people, so how could they attract these mad dogs to spend so much effort to chase them?
"Okay, okay, it's not a big deal. Just ask that guy and you'll know the answer!" Song Jixiang interrupted the argument between the two and had the commander carried into the tent.
The bearded man faced the people present, knelt on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed several times in one direction, "General, General, it's great that you are still alive! The brothers thought you..." The big man wanted to wipe away his tears, but found that his hands and feet were still tied, so he shouted at the others, "Untie me quickly! Otherwise..."
"Hmph, you have such great power, but you don't even realize you're a prisoner. I was blind to promote you to the commander of the imperial guards!" Shangguan Hong snorted coldly.
"No, General, I was just following orders."
"What a good way to follow orders! Is Emperor Jingchen senile? Has the world changed to the surname of Meng? ? Senile and incompetent monarch..." Shangguan Hong slammed the table and cursed.
The bearded man didn't dare to respond. If the general dared to say so, he still had to take care of his life!
"Tell me, what are you doing here?"
"This……"
"Humph!"
The bearded man gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and said loudly: "I'll tell you, the imperial envoy asked us to arrest a boy named Hua."
"The boy with the surname Hua?"
Several people turned their eyes to Song Jixiang.
Song Jixiang nodded. It was her, that's right. She was just a country girl. What relationship did she have with these high-ranking officials?
Although the bearded man was a warrior, he had spent a lot of time at the emperor's feet and had learned some skills in observing people's words and expressions. How could he not see at this moment that the person the imperial envoy had been looking for was the slim "little girl" in front of him.
This is easy to handle. He said, "Since this is the young master Hua Bufan that the imperial envoy is looking for, please follow me back. I believe the imperial envoy will not make things difficult for a child." No matter why the young man turned into a girl, it was enough for him to complete the mission.
Xiao Ruyi stepped forward and patted the bearded man's cheek fiercely, "Who gave you face..."
Since entering the wilderness, Xiao Ruyi has restored his masculine appearance and dress, while Xiaohong is dressed as Miss Xiao by Song Jixiang, and sits in the carriage with Shangguan Yu. He is wearing a black waisted gown, and his long hair is tied up with a wooden hairpin, which was given to him by Jiang. Although it is not yet time for the coming-of-age ceremony, he has already taken on a masculine appearance, tall and straight, with a face like a crown jade.
"This man is already stubborn and unyielding. Take him away!" He was about to shoot the civilians mercilessly at first, but now he was like nothing happened, thinking only of going back to report. It would be a lie to say that he had no feelings for the soldiers he had led before, but seeing that he was now acting like an official, Shangguan Hong couldn't even sigh and waved his hand.
"General, as long as you let me take Hua Bufan back, the imperial envoy will definitely let these civilians go, and..." Unfortunately, before he could finish his words, he was gagged and taken away.
"And you, General, and the former Queen," the bearded man held back his unfinished words. He really cared about the general and the former Queen. If he gave in to Prime Minister Meng, he might be able to keep his life. Otherwise...
Do they think they can rely on these refugees to fight against thousands of regular troops?
These peasants were able to capture him and his men because they were not prepared and were caught off guard. If he had made good arrangements, these peasants would have easily captured them with their mediocre skills.
The Prime Minister didn't know that General Shangguan and the former Queen had mixed up with this group of refugees. If he knew, he would definitely rush over quickly. Should he think of a way to pass on this news?
When the large army behind catches up, these people, hum...
The Prime Minister is right. These untouchables should be suppressed by force! Why doesn't the general listen to my advice? Alas!
Song Jixiang and his companions discussed in the tent for a while and decided to wait there for the imperial envoy to arrive. As the old saying goes, you're not afraid of thieves stealing, you're afraid of thieves thinking about it!
Since we know that this person has bad intentions, then we should dig a trap and wait for him to fall into it!
A few people understood what was happening, laughed a few times, and returned to their tents to rest.
Only by conserving your energy can you better fight the enemy!
Unfortunately, no one was seen until dusk the next day. Song Jixiang and Xiao Ruyi sat on a tall tree, looking into the distance with binoculars, muttering, "This shouldn't be the case. All these people are riding horses, so they should be very fast. Why haven't we seen anyone yet?"
Xiao Ruyi spread his hands, as if saying, "I don't know, don't ask me," and took out a piece of beef jerky from his arms and started to chew it.
Song Jixiang pouted in disdain, "Speaking of which, I also drank the spiritual spring water in the space, but why am I still a head shorter than you? Look at you, you eat all day long, just like bamboo shoots in spring, you change every day, and you become so big and strong..."
"What do you mean by broad back and strong arms? You don't understand. This is called masculinity!" Xiao Ruyi straightened his waist proudly.
"Hey, look who that is?"
"That's not the bearded guy?" Song Jixiang saw a familiar man through the telescope. "Isn't he tied up?"
"He must have some sharp weapon hidden on his body. He cut the rope and ran away. My uncle is too soft-hearted. I'm going to catch him!" Xiao Ruyi patted the meat scraps on his hands and was about to jump down.
"Wait!" Song Jixiang told him not to go.
"Since the big fish haven't come yet, we have to throw out some bait..."
Hehehe...
The two looked at each other and smiled.
