Light Red Northern Song

The room was quiet for a long time, Xia Leli called out from the outside: "Your Highness."

"Come in."

"His Royal Highness, the marshal sent someone to look for you." Xia Le walked in and reported.

"I know about it, Mr. Qiao, let's go back first."

"Resign from your humble position." Qiao Jinzhi leaned over and replied, bowing deeply before leaving the room.

Jing Rou stared at the other person's leaving figure, and then looked down at Yu Jue in her hand.She remembered Lin Yuan's words just now, why didn't she let herself be too engrossed in it?How could it cause sorrow in vain in the future?Did I always think of everything too simply? Just because of the fierce resistance of that person just now, this matter might not be that simple.

The more she thought about it, the more she lost her mind. After a while, she stroked her forehead and asked, "The marshal will call me alone?"

"Reporting to Your Highness, I don't know." Xia Le secretly looked at the master and replied in a low voice.

"Where is Linyuan? Please come in."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Your Highness, I'm here." Lin Yuan came in before Xia Le went out.

"Master Daoist, go look for it today and see if you can see the school lieutenant who delivered the letter in the prison barracks last night. If you find it, report it to me immediately."

"I'm here to protect His Highness, why did you send me to find someone?"

"You know him, if you don't go, who will go?" Jing Rou put Yu Jue into her arms, stood up and said.

"That's right. Well, then I'll go."

When the princess and his party came to the coach's camp, Jingrou walked in and saw Qi Zhiyu still sitting at the top, while a tied up foreign woman in dirty clothes stood below.

"Brother, what are you calling me for?"

"Little Huangmei, come and sit here." Qi Zhiyu beckoned him to sit beside him.

"Is this person Huyan Dalang?" Jingrou sat down, glanced at the person below and asked.

"It's her. Brother Huang wants to ask her about the prisoner camp today. Please ask sister to be a witness."

"I'll be a witness?" Jingrou looked at the other party suspiciously and asked.

"The affairs of the military camp should be handled by the people in the military camp, but since the imperial sister is in the camp, such important matters should also be involved, so as not to be criticized in the future."

Jingrou didn't understand whether the other party was worried about being criticized in the future or herself, and it was inconvenient to ask in detail, so she didn't investigate.

"Huyan Dalang, I ask you, what happened last night? How did you escape?"

"Heh! How did we escape, shouldn't you ask the guards in your camp? Why are you asking me instead?" Huyan Dalang turned his head to one side and replied arrogantly.

"Of course the guards will ask questions, but you," Qi Zhiyu turned his head and said, "Her father, Hu Yanding, the leader of the Huns, sent people here before, and wanted to exchange her with four hundred Qi captives."

"Four hundred?" Jing Rou was surprised for a moment and asked, "What does Brother Huang think?"

"I haven't made a decision yet."

"Brother Huang is asking for my opinion, right?" Jing Rou asked with a puzzled face.

"Right on my mind."

"Four hundred soldiers," Jingrou didn't make any excuses, she lowered her head and thought for a while and said, "That's not too bad."

"Why?" Qi Zhiyu asked.

Jingrou recalled what happened here last night, and knew that this person had some relationship with Qiao Jinzhi.If Qiao Jinzhi wanted to save her, why did he stop him?Besides, the war is cruel, 400 people is such a big number, it is enough to scare a modern person like her.

"Continuing years of war, the two countries have suffered a lot. Four hundred lives, I don't know what they are in the eyes of others, but they are very precious in my eyes. If they can be saved, they should be saved."

"Oh! The princess of Qi State is really ignorant, and she doesn't even know how to settle accounts. If I go back, there will be more than four hundred soldiers of Qi State who will die in my hands in the future." Huyan Dalang still tilted his head and smiled arrogantly. explain.

"Oh, so you don't want to go back." Jing Rou glanced at the other party and said slowly.

Huyan Dalang turned his head, looked at her in disbelief, and said loudly: "How do you pampered and pampered royal families of the Central Plains understand the ambition of the desert wolf? Exchange prisoners? I would rather die than suffer such a thing." What a shame!"

Jing Rou didn't refute, but turned around and asked loudly: "Brother Huang, she is already a prisoner, isn't this a great shame?"

"You can only show off your tongue here, you are also a useless Central Plains person!" Huyan Dalang sneered.

"Brother Huang, if you are willing to exchange, you don't have to consider her opinion. If you don't want to exchange, then you can refuse. I haven't heard of the desert wolf emperor, but I have heard of the prisoner." She said Wan pretended to be amazed and said: "Since the honor is so high, why did you run away last night? The moment you are a prisoner, you should kill yourself. Maybe you can still preserve your proud reputation."

Jingrou originally wanted to provoke the other party and bring the topic to what happened last night.How they escaped from the prison camp last night is related to Qiao Jinzhi's reputation and even safety, how can she not let her miss it.

"You speak wild words, don't fall into my hands in the future!" Huyan Dalang shouted angrily when he heard the words.

"Let's talk about what happened in the future. Only if you can get out alive will you have a future. With such great ability, why didn't you escape last night? I see, you can only be trapped to death in my Daqi's prisoner camp." Jing Rou raised her chin, without looking at the other party, and said with a light smile.

"That's me..." Huyan Dalang was about to retort, but quickly stopped.At this moment, she suddenly calmed down, and turned her head to observe Jingrou's face carefully.

At this time, Jing Rou heard the sudden silence below, and she turned her head and narrowed her eyes, and looked at the other party seriously from head to toe.I saw the woman below, her body wrapped under the dirty clothes was exquisite and well-developed.That face was a little gray, with scars on his forehead, and his face could not be seen very clearly, but he could still distinguish the handsome and sharp eyebrows, and the bright and energetic eyes.

The two looked at each other across the air, and Huyan Dalang suddenly said "Hey" and asked, "When did Qi State have a princess of this age? Oh! You are Chu Zhenyu from Chu State!"

"You know about me?" Jing Rou asked in surprise.

"How do I not know?" Huyan Dalang smiled and answered confidently.

"Imperial sister, come to think of it, it's that traitor Cheng Ji." Qi Zhiyu interjected.

"Who is Chengji?"

"Chengji is one of the secret missions sent by the empress to the Huns." Qi Zhiyu approached the other party and whispered.

"We know everything about your country, big and small." Huyan Dalang yelled again.

"One?" Jing Rou ignored her and asked Qi Zhiyu with her head tilted.

"The one who went to the Xiongnu with him was the woman that the imperial sister saw last night. She found out Chengji's intentions and was almost murdered. After several twists and turns, she fled back to the territory of Qi. I have reported this matter back to the capital. Waiting for the queen's will to act."

"Isn't that woman yours last night...?"

"She was also Brother Huang's childhood playmate, so I temporarily kept her in the camp."

"So that's it." Jingrou nodded, glanced at the person below, and continued: "Ask her, but there should be no result. I have some private things to tell you, why don't you let her go down first?" ?”

"Private talk?" Qi Zhiyu turned his head and looked down, and said, "Alright, let her go down first."

The soldiers wanted to take Huyan Dalang down, but before she went out, she turned around and glanced at Jingrou again.

"Little sister, Brother Huang doesn't believe that Qiao Jinzhi will cooperate with the enemy. If she didn't do it, someone else did it. I probably know who it is, but I don't know what you think?"

Although Qi Zhiyu didn't have much contact with this imperial sister, but through those few contacts, he no longer regarded her as an ignorant child.Coupled with Chu Shanyi's relationship, he even sincerely regards her as his own sister, respects her, and protects her.

The same is true for Jing Rou, some things are so miraculous, two people who had little contact with each other in the past can quickly let go of their guards and trust each other because of someone or something.She frowned and explained to the other party what Lin Yuan had said to her one by one, and also told him what she had told Lin Yuan, but omitted what happened in the commander's camp last night.

"Then, sister, do you suspect that this matter has something to do with Supervisor Cao?" Qi Zhiyu asked after listening to him.

"Could it be that the person that Brother Huang thinks in his heart is not him?"

"This...Renguixin clearly still has accomplices. Most of the people here, Fu Huang and Qiao Lei, have been cleared. Of course, we know that they are not clean. Cao Jianjun has been in the North Camp, and we were not without it before. I doubt it, but he has always been on good terms with Marshal Qiao." Qi Zhiyu frowned, but did not continue.

"He has been in the northern camp, so who else came here later?"

"Only Zhang Tuo."

"Zhang Tuo? What is his background?"

"He was transferred here from the southern military camp, not long after I arrived."

"That's all right. When Lin Yuan finds the captain who sent the letter, he will find out after asking."

"Sister, after what you said, we need to think about Cao Jianjun's matter carefully, and I don't know if Daoist Linyuan has found the school lieutenant."

"Brother Huang keeps talking about you, but does the word 'we' refer to General Miao?"

"Yes, he is the Empress's servant. He is very loyal and has saved Qiao Jinzhi's life. By the way, the 24th of this month is the day of routine mountain patrol in Beiying, and I will take him with me. "

"24? Isn't that tomorrow? Is it safe to go on a mountain tour at this time?"

"It's a common practice in the military. I don't have to go every time. But I just arrived here, and this is the first time I catch up with the mountain patrol. Qiao Jinzhi is familiar with the North Camp, and I wanted to take her with me. Now you see ?”

"Brother Huang, you can take it with you if you want, so ask me why?" Jingrou glanced outside the door again and said, "But you and General Miao have left, and there are still a lot of things that have not been dealt with here."

"Well, that can only shorten the time. I think I can return in a day, as long as there is no major incident, it will be fine."

"Then, Aunt Huang has not allowed Qiao Jinzhi to return to Beijing, but it's because there are remnants here and the situation is unclear?" Jing Rou suddenly thought of Chu Shanyi's arrangement to keep Qiao Jinzhi here, so she asked.

"Although Qiao Jinzhi has no military position now, she still has some prestige and connections here. In terms of lieutenant colonels, half of them were former generals of the Qiao family. So, even if you are a benevolent newcomer, how can it be so easy? Frame her? Didn't the imperial sister see that she was as stable as Mount Tai last night, and didn't care much about those slanderous remarks?"

"Oh?" Jingrou tilted her head and thought for a while, last night she saw that the other party didn't care, and she thought it was purely her heart.If what Qi Zhiyu said was true, would he be too attached to her, always afraid that she would suffer a disadvantage.But maybe they won't suffer any disadvantages, and they don't need to maintain it by themselves here, it's because they think too much.

"Do you want to send someone to call Master Linyuan?" Qi Zhiyu asked again.

"If she is looking for someone, she will definitely not wait for a moment to report to me. At this time and in the future, maybe the captain has not been found yet. Don't worry, Brother Emperor, I will go and look for her."

"Very good. Then I will send General Miao to come and make some arrangements for tomorrow's affairs." Qi Zhiyu stood up and said.

"Okay, Brother Huang, take care of yourself. I'll come back later when I get the news."
