Light Red Northern Song

When Qiao Jin came to the prisoner camp, the rotten smell mixed with occasional groans invaded her senses.She went around for a while, and came to a low and separated cage, where several female prisoners of war with dirty clothes were sitting.

"What is General Qiao here for?" A weak female voice came into my ears.

Qiao Jinzhi waved her hand to signal the soldiers following her to leave, and stood in front of the cage door and said to her, "Yesterday your father Hu Yanding sent someone a handwritten letter, intending to exchange 400 of my Daqi prisoners of war for you to go back."

"Does your marshal agree?" Another woman in the cage raised her head and asked loudly.

"The Marshal is considering it."

"Hmph!" The woman raised her eyebrows and said triumphantly, "You people from the Central Plains are so useless!"

"This is the army camp of Qi State. I advise you not to be too arrogant, so as not to bring disaster to yourself." Qiao Jinzhi said calmly, meeting the contemptuous eyes of several people.

"We are all wolves of the desert! How can we be as afraid of death as you useless Central Plains people! If you want to kill, kill it, and you can see who of us frowns!" shouted a sturdy man in the left cage .

The woman who spoke first also raised her head at this time, only to see that her face was still stained with blood, and her forehead seemed to be still oozing blood, but her eyes were piercing and fearless.She stared at Qiao Jinzhi, and slowly asked, "Then, what exactly is General Qiao here for?"

Qiao Jinzhi stood still for a moment, then turned around and left silently.

"Haha! Even the generals of the Qi Kingdom are under our Dalang rank! Haha!" The few people nearby burst into laughter when they heard this.

"Don't speak nonsense, Poison Man. General Qiao is extraordinary. I was defeated by her a few years ago." Huyan Dalang swept across the crowd, and stopped the man who took the lead in laughing.

Everyone quieted down.These Xiongnu soldiers are all extremely brave, and they will never bow their heads to the enemy, but they will not disrespect the strong.

Qiao Jinzhi felt a little tired when she thought about the dispute she had with Master Yang in the coach camp.The situation in the barracks is changing rapidly. After I returned to Zhenbei camp a few months ago, I belonged to a "non-staff" with no military rank or real position.

If it weren't for the fact that there were still many old Qiao family troops in the camp, and General Miao was also thinking about the old love of the Qiao family, he would really have no value in this army.It is a good time to withdraw at this time, but Chu Shanyi has not called her back to Beijing, so what are you waiting for?

Thinking of going back to Beijing, she smiled again, that little man was really thinking of himself all the time.When returning to Beijing, he can be a filial piety for his father, and he doesn't have to stay in this cruel battlefield.It's not that she doesn't care about her mother's hatred, but the killings in those years have already changed her mind.

Qiao Jinzhi left the prisoner's camp and walked back to the commander's camp.She wanted to find out for sure what Qi Zhiyu was going to do. It wouldn't be a bad thing if he could exchange for hundreds of soldiers who had lived and died together.

In the women's barracks on the west side, Jing Rou was writing a letter on a piece of silk with a pen.

"Your Highness, don't you want to play chess?" She finished writing the letter for a long time, Lin Yuan walked around her and asked again.

"If you don't want to go down now, does the Daoist have nothing else to do?"

"My business is to protect His Royal Highness, and I must never leave."

"Master Daoist, I have an important question to ask you." Jing Rou suddenly turned around and asked.

"Excuse me, Your Highness." Lin Yuan also became interested.

"Is Li Cangshan fun? What I mean is, if you stay there all year round, do you have many opportunities to go down the mountain? If you don't have the chance to go down the mountain, will the priest feel bored?"

"Except for the occasional trip down the mountain with our uncle, we spend the rest of the time on the mountain. We are usually very busy on the mountain. There are a lot of Taoist scriptures, Taoism and martial arts that need to be learned. It's okay to be bored, but my brothers and sisters They are a little different, after a long time, I always want to go down the mountain to play, otherwise it will be uncomfortable."

"So that's the case, no wonder the Taoist priest is very noisy, so it's really suffocating." Jingrou pretended to be enlightened, stood up and said to Xia Le: "Did you also find that since the Taoist priest came, there is always some noise around us? "

"Hehe," Xia Le had already seen the master's teasing intentions, she covered her mouth and said, "Yes, Your Highness, why don't you send someone to send a letter to Yun Ran Zhenxian, so that someone who is not noisy can come over?"

"That's good!" Jing Rou turned around and said to Lin Yuan, "Daoist, do you think it's good?"

"Hmph, hum, do you think I'm noisy? I'm not as good as others when it comes to Taoism, scriptures, and methods, but my martial arts are excellent. Don't bully me." Lin Yuan raised his face and said viciously.

"What does the Taoist priest mean? If you are good at martial arts, you still have to beat us?" Both Jingrou and Xia Le couldn't help laughing.

"Your Highness! Others say that you are very quiet, but I think they are probably lying!"

Xia Le is still smiling, but Jing Rou can't laugh anymore.She was taken aback for a moment, and then thought about it, only to realize that her temperament had indeed changed a lot recently, as if her personality was becoming more and more like Zhen Yu from before.She remembered that when she first came to this world, she was very quiet, she was not interested in anyone or anything, and she didn't like to talk.Now sometimes it seems that my mind has been liberated, and I like to play with the people around me, and I talk a lot more.

Why?Could it be that the soul has adapted to this world?Or did you say that you were changed by someone?

"Linyuan, I would like to ask you, who in your school has the best medical skills?" Jing Rou still had an important matter on her mind, so she asked immediately.

"Ah? Medical skills? Why did Your Highness suddenly ask this?"

"Do you know the Taoist priest pure?"

"I know Taoist Master Chunyan. He is an old friend of the uncle, and we often see him in previous years."

"I don't know where he is now."

"It's easy for Your Highness to know where he is. I'll send a letter back to the teacher's door to find out." Lin Yuan had already forgotten that someone thought she was noisy just now, and anxiously came up with an idea.

"Well, let's do it right away."

"You are in such a hurry, Your Highness has deep thoughts." Lin Yuan showed a dissatisfied tone, and went out the door muttering.

During this day, the servants of the palace servants stayed near the master's room.In the first half of the day, Jingrou still seemed not interested in anything, but in the second half of the day, she came to the door frequently to look around.Time passed quickly, and it was time for dinner in a blink of an eye.She turned around and saw Lin Yuan's eyes rolling, as if he was planning to talk to her in a ghostly way, only to realize that she was like a little daughter-in-law who was waiting for her husband to return home for half a day.She was about to say something to stop the other party's mouth when she caught a glimpse of Mu Ji running in from outside.

"Why are you panicking?" Just as Jing Rou finished asking, she heard louder noises outside.

"Reporting to Your Highness, a prisoner has escaped from the prison camp!"

"How could it be? Mu Ji quickly arranged defenses to protect His Highness." Xia Le said.

"Don't panic, how many escaped?" Jingrou asked.

"It's not clear yet, there are still several prisoners outside who are confronting our soldiers and guards."

"Confrontation?" Jingrou felt very strange. She walked out the door, and when she walked out of the door, she saw figures and fire dancing around in Dongying from a distance, and she was indeed a little confused.Many soldiers surrounded several captives, seeming to be arguing about something.She frowned and walked there, Lin Yuan, Mu Ji and others quickly followed.

"Your Highness, it's better not to go there." Xia Le said after coming over.

"With me here, what are you afraid of? Your Highness, hurry up." Lin Yuan quickly finished speaking and pulled the other party.

Not long after the group of people walked forward, they heard someone in the Dongying crowd yell violently, and started fighting again.Jingrou only looked in the distance looking for Qiao Jinzhi's figure, so she walked forward even more eagerly.

"Your Highness! It's not safe here, please go back to the camp." Ren Guixin led the soldiers and guards to rush to him and shouted.

"General Ren, what happened?" Jing Rou originally wanted to ask where Qiao Jinzhi was, but then she thought about it, showing excessive concern for others in the barracks would have a bad influence on Qiao Jinzhi , so he concealed his true thoughts and asked in another sentence.

"Reporting to Your Highness, more than a dozen Hun prisoners who were detained in the captive camp escaped for some reason. They kidnapped the female family members of the army and wanted to negotiate a price with the marshal."

Jing Rou, who was looking forward, froze, turned around in surprise and asked, "Where are the female relatives in the army?"

Ren Guixin looked up at the other party's expression, then suddenly knelt on the ground and said, "Your official made a mistake!"

Can the word "juan" be called casually?Now the women in the army camps of the Qi State are nothing more than female soldiers, the female slaves assigned here, and the accompanying maids, which of them can be called "family members"?

At this time, the two adults from the Ministry of Rites also came to Xiying, and Master Zhang shouted first, "Fortunately, Your Highness is fine."

"Your Highness is precious. There are many Huns in Dongying, so don't go there." Lord Wang also said out of breath.

"The two adults ran from east to west in the same way, and nothing happened. Did you see the marshal in Dongying?" Jing Rou asked.

"I saw the marshal, and several generals are here. We were going to capture them, but the Huns caught a woman from somewhere, and they are negotiating now." Mr. Zhang replied.

"General Miao is here too? Did you see Qiao Jinzhi?" Jingrou asked when she saw the timing was almost there.

"It's all here, Your Highness, don't go there."

Jing Rou looked down at Ren Guixin, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "How many Hun captives can upset my Daqi barracks? General Ren followed me."

"Obey!" The lieutenant behind Rengui Xinchao winked and stood up.

The wind was strong at night, and the group accelerated and walked towards Dongying.After a while, the Huns captives shouted loudly and took advantage of the wind: "General Qiao, what's the use of staying here? You don't even have a military position. Come back with us. Our Chanyu appreciates you the most." Talented!"

He deliberately called Qiao Jinzhi "General", while the other party stared at him calmly, and asked in a deep voice, "When will we let go of our people?"

"This person is your marshal's concubine. He agreed to our conditions and let the beauty go. Hehe, although I really want to take the beauty back to enjoy myself. Hahaha!"

"Presumptuous! If you dare to speak nonsense again, I will tell you to wait for the blood to splash on the spot!" General Miao shouted loudly.

"What's your name! General Qiao has always been on good terms with us, the Huns. If you were like you, we wouldn't pay attention to it at all." The words of the Huns made everyone in the camp cry out in surprise.

"What's going on here? Could it be that Qiao Jinzhi really colluded with the Huns?" The lieutenant behind Renguixin turned and asked several people.

The two adults in the Ministry of Rituals were silent when they heard the words, and everyone secretly looked at Her Highness the Princess.

"Hmph! I thought that the soldiers in my Daqi barracks were all ambitious men, but they turned out to be mediocre people who made groundless guesses based on the enemy's two malicious rumors. They were ignorant and incompetent." Jing Rou raised her chin, He glanced sharply at the lieutenant general, and spoke in a bad tone.

The lieutenant general who spoke just now glanced sideways and hurriedly bent down, not daring to say any more.

Jing Rou looked into the crowd and saw that the provocative Xiongnu man was very burly, with black cheeks and black beard, holding a pale Central Plains woman hostage in front of him.Standing beside him was another woman of a different race, whose face could not be seen clearly under the flickering firelight.

At this moment, the Central Plains woman's eyes lit up, and she turned her head to the right.The crowd only heard a few "swish", and a few fast arrows were shot from a high place, but it turned out that Zhang Tuo led a few people to draw a few strong bows on the high arrow tower right in front of Dongying.

While grabbing the woman, the man brandished the saber he had snatched as a shield.After a few waves of fast arrows struck, all the soldiers rushed forward and fought together again.A lot of soldiers who don't know where they came from surrounded Jingrou and kept them far away.When this battle was fought intermittently, she was so shocked that she was panicked and trembling.
