The hero bends down

No sleep for one night.

After daybreak, Zhong Su got up early again to make arrangements for lamp making.Long Yi took the medicine as usual to regain his concentration, and when he woke up, he saw a person kneeling quietly beside the bed, it was the shadow guard Nighthawk.

Long Yi straightened his body, and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

Yeying reported: "According to my investigation and observation these days, General Ji is trapped in the hands of Southern Chu Crown Prince Chu Xiyou."

Long Yi clenched his fist slightly, frowned and said, "It's him again."

The person who threatened Concubine Qi was this person, the person who assassinated Concubine Xian was also this person, and the person who is imprisoning Ji Munian now is still this person.Since he ascended the throne, he has fought countless battles with Chu Xiyou, winning and losing each other, but he fell to the lower ranks a few times, and each time he was extremely passive, which angered his Ni Lin.

Seeing the bulging veins on Long Yi's hands, Ye Ying bowed his head and lowered his eyebrows without saying a word.

Long Yi pondered in his heart for a moment before he opened his mouth and said, "I heard from Xiao Su that Mu Nian was seriously injured when he left with him." He originally wanted to ask about Ji Munian's safety, but when he said this, he suddenly didn't dare to ask any more .

Ye Ying understood, and replied: "Your Majesty can rest assured, the people of Southern Chu did not do anything to General Ji, they just imprisoned him."

After hearing this, Long Yi said in a deep voice, "Then you saw Mu Nian?"

"Not yet." Yeying said, "Prince Chu personally handles the place where General Ji is trapped." He weighed the facts and told the truth: "I am not capable enough, I am afraid that Prince Chu will find out when I approach General Ji, so I will Come back and report."

Long Yi nodded and said, "Where are they now?"

Ye Ying said: "In the Southern Chu Army, they have already come to Jinnan City."

Long Yi bowed his head and remained silent. After a long time, he suddenly got up and took a few steps in the tent. He said with a low smile, "Chu Xiyou is still the same. He took Mu Nian because he wanted to exchange terms with me."

When he said this, he pondered slightly: "I have asked Cheng Fengnan Feige to send a letter to invite Mr. Ji, and he will arrive in a few days. Xiao Su is serious about his work. I have seen his defense strategy these few days, so I should agree with him." There is no problem." As he spoke, the haze gradually swept away, his eyes gradually narrowed and he said: "The conditions that that person talks about are always harsh. I will definitely not give him any bargaining chips."

Ye Ying knew that Long Yi had something to order, so he didn't interrupt, and listened respectfully.

After a while, Long Yi's voice really came.

"According to Xiao Su's plan, Dianshi will definitely send troops to attack Nanchu. Yeying, you must join Ji Lao and sneak into the enemy's camp during the war to rescue Mu Nian."

Knowing that Long Yi had plans, Yeying immediately bowed his head and accepted the order.

After Nighthawk disappeared, Long Yi still felt depressed, so he took a few steps outside the tent.

It wasn't until he saw Zhong Su's figure that he felt less depressed.

He didn't call Zhong Su's name either, he just picked a high ground and looked straight at Zhong Su's back.

In the firearms room, Zhong Su was arguing with those firearms masters and was extremely focused.The firearms master nodded and shook his head from time to time. From their eyes, it seemed that they were a little puzzled by Zhong Su's opinion, but they also appreciated it.

Long Yi was watching from a distance, and suddenly remembered Mu Nian's situation, as if a rope was tightened in his heart, but it was empty and couldn't reach the edge.

Yesterday, Zhong Su was named General Protector of the Nation, I don't know if it is good or not.

Long Yi slowly thought in his heart, if he waited until the southwest war ended, should he leave Zhong Su at the border or in the capital.

If he stayed at the border, what would Zhong Su do if he was captured by mistake like Mu Nian?

But Zhong Su is no better than Mu Nian. When Mu Nian left the mountain that day, he had a lesson from Ji Lao. He wanted to help Fengguo protect the frontier and establish a business. Following Ji Lao's wishes, he sent Mu Nian to the southwestern border.

But Zhong Su, he wanted to stay by his side.

Thinking of this, Long Yi paused in his heart, and suddenly felt that even though he was kind to Zhong Su in every possible way, that man didn't have the same feelings he had for him, but was calm and peaceful, with a feeling of resignation.

This idea slowly climbed up, and it couldn't be lingered for a while.

Long Yi frowned impatiently.While he was frowning, a pair of military boots appeared in his vision and stopped in front of him.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?"

Zhong Su's voice came from next to his ear, even when he was surprised, his tone was calm and without any disturbance.

Long Yi was in a daze, got up and patted the dust on his body, and said with a smile: "There is nothing wrong with the army, I just want to see Xiao Su when I am free."

There was really nothing to do in the army, he didn't need to correct memorials, and he didn't have to deal with the courtiers who only talk about it. In the whole camp, there were only the people he cared about the most.

After hearing Long Yi's words, Zhong Su regretted why he asked this question, and simply stopped talking.

Knowing that Zhong Su would not speak for a while, Long Yi didn't want to speak first, so he simply stood by, motionless and silent.

The two were like two pieces of wood, standing in place for a long time.The firearms master who had listened to Zhong Su's order to develop explosives was coming and going in and out of the firearms workshop, but there were still two people standing outside, not even moving a bit, almost becoming a landscape, blending in with the still life next to them.

In the end, there was still a sentry trotting over. He was aiming at Zhong Su, but when he saw Long Yi, he obviously paused, kowtowed and said, "Long live the emperor."

Long Yi also nodded, but still didn't mean to speak.

The sentinel immediately felt the cold air emanating from the emperor, even though he couldn't see it, he shivered.

Zhong Su knew that this sentry was a soldier he arranged to investigate at the front line, and he must have something important to tell when he came here, so he could only say: "What is it?"

Although it was only two words short, after all, it was Zhong Su who spoke first, and the air-conditioning beside Long Yi suddenly became active.

Invisibly, the pressure dropped suddenly, and the sentinel still looked at the emperor tremblingly. Seeing that he was not as stern as before, he was a little relieved, looked around at the people walking around, and just got up and whispered something in Zhong Su's ear. sentence.

Zhong Su nodded.

After the sentinel finished his report, he withdrew.

When the sentry retreated, Long Yi walked up to Zhong Su and asked, "What news?"

Zhong Su turned his head to see Long Yi's cheek.

He thought about the cautious action of the sentinel before, and unexpectedly realized the meaning of Long Yi at this time.

Zhong Su blushed, turned away Long Yi's head, and said in a low voice, "Southern Chu is besieging the city."

Long Yi let out an "oh", seeing Zhong Su's red cheeks, feeling helpless and itchy.

The speed of the siege of Southern Chu was extremely fast, and the camp was set up in just a few hours. Zhong Su climbed up on the wall, raised the telescope, and saw the military tents erected not far away, with the flags fluttering, and the Chinese characters of Chu flying like dragons and phoenixes. Into Zhong Su's eyes.

General He Pu of the Central Army stood beside Zhong Su and said, "General Jin expected well. Southern Chu is just as the general said, and the camp is located in the southeast of the city."

Zhong Su put down the binoculars, and said with a low smile, "There is a source of water in the southeast, which is a good place to garrison troops."

He Pudao: "I wonder if the general will implement the next plan?"

Zhong Su shook his head and said, "No, I still need to determine the distance."

He Pu frowned and said, "Are you sure?"

Zhong Su said: "This battle must be perfect, I will test it myself."

When the news reached Long Yi's ears, Long Yi's eyelids twitched instantly, and he pulled Zhong Su over and said, "Xiao Su, the front line is so dangerous, are you sure you want to go?"

Zhong Su looked at Long Yi strangely and said: "The emperor gave me a general to protect the country. Since I am a general, it is inevitable to charge forward."

Long Yi's heart tightened slightly, but he still refused to let go of Zhong Su.

Zhong Su could only smile lowly and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, Zhong Su is not going to take risks. I am only observing the enemy camp from the outside."

Only then did Long Yi feel relieved, knowing that what Zhong Su said was reasonable, he reluctantly let him go.

At night, Zhong Su led a group of men and horses to sneak outside the Southern Chu Army's tent. Zhong Su observed the surrounding area for a while, roughly estimated the distance, and did not return to the city until dawn was about to break.

As soon as he returned to the city, he saw Defu standing at the gate of the city.

Defu was much more anxious than Zhong Su, and when he saw Zhong Su, he said, "General Jin!"

Zhong Su got off his horse in front of Defu and said, "What's the matter, father-in-law?"

Defu hesitated to speak, he hesitated for a long time, Fang said: "General Jin, when you just left the city, the emperor was about to come out, blowing the wind on the city wall all night, and now he is ill again."

"..." Zhong Su was speechless.

Now that Defu opened his mouth, he simply continued: "To tell you the truth, the emperor was assassinated before arriving at Jinnan Pass. If it wasn't for the golden silk soft armor to protect him, he might have gone already."

Zhong Su was slightly taken aback.

Long Yi never mentioned this matter to him.

He thought about it for a while, maybe that man didn't want him to mention it.

While he was thinking, Defu's words came in again: "General Jin, don't blame the slave for talking too much. The emperor has missed General Jin very much these past few years. In order to get General Jin back, the emperor did not hesitate to go to Lord Tonghua to use the forbidden technique. The situation has not improved.”

When Defu said these words, he obviously already knew that Zhong Su was the concubine Xian, and he heard Cheng Fengnan say the forbidden technique.

When Zhong Su heard this, he was stunned again.

When he came back, he actually had a relationship with Long Yi.

Forbidden.

He was supposed to die originally, the bullet hit the place very accurately, but he was reborn miraculously, and was pulled from his original world into this world.

The hand holding the rein loosened and tightened again, and for a while, he couldn't say anything.

Defu whispered something in his ear again, but Zhong Su couldn't hear the clear sound of the words.

He froze in place for a long time, and thought for a long time before he saw a ray of light cast from the city gate.

The warm sun rises, gradually breaking through the morning fog.The faint sunlight swayed, releasing bit by bit of heat.

Zhong Su took a long breath, then turned his head and asked, "Eunuch, where is the Emperor at this time?"

Defu replied: "Resting in General Gong's mansion."

After Zhong Su heard this, he remounted his horse in silence, stood under the rising sun, and shook the reins.

The horse's hooves clattered away, leaving behind a shadow after a while, Defu looked at Zhong Suyuan's direction, which was Gong Shaohe's mansion.
