POW camp

"Get out, get out!" Hovis impatiently dismissed all the little slaves who had stuck up to serve him, including the "guard".The little slaves had no choice but to go downstairs to have fun with rather resentful eyes.Hovis closed the office door, unbuttoned his clothes, and flung himself on the wide sofa, covering his face with his hands.

He maintained this position and did not move for a long time.The scene of Lan Ting's fall was replaying in front of his eyes over and over again, and he couldn't restrain himself from imagining, if those bullets were real, if Lan Ting died just like this... A chill slowly crept up Hovis's back, At this time, he was able and dared to let himself feel the piercing fear, and his body kept shaking, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

The sun's rays moved down inch by inch, and the light gradually became gray.It seemed like a century had passed before Hovis rubbed his face hard twice.He leaned his head back on the high sofa back, looked at the gray roof above his head, and suddenly felt that he was too tired, too tired.His bones were like mud spread on the ground, and he couldn't even lift them up.Sometimes he really wants to be like Lan Ting, just pounce on them and beat all those sons of bitches to death!

Hovis closed his eyes heavily, took a deep breath, and let it out slowly.Be calm, he told himself, be calm.

Someone knocked on the door, carefully.Hovis frowned and said irritably, "Get out, don't bother me!"

"Master, it's me." Kelan's voice sounded outside the door.

Hovis immediately sat up straight. He wanted to stand up, but after hesitating for a while, he still didn't move, and said loudly in a cold and impatient tone: "Aren't you dead yet? Get the fuck out of here and wait!"

Crane pushed open the door and walked in lightly.

After the pain that was almost hanging by a thread, he inevitably lost some weight, and the injury has not healed. He looks very pale, with a kind of delicate weakness.Crane carefully closed the door, walked to Hovis's side, knelt down at his feet, and said respectfully, "Master, I'm back."

Hovis slowly pulled Kelan up from the ground, and met those beautiful and docile purple eyes: "Is the injury all healed?"

"It's okay master."

Hovis took Crane into his arms, "Thank you, Crane." Horvis whispered.

Thank you for trusting me, thank you for completing the mission, thank you for coming back safely...

Kelan didn't speak, and there was no need to speak at this moment. The two just hugged each other gently, using each other's warmth to drive away each other's loneliness.

Hovis felt much more stable in his heart, gradually freed himself from the incident during the day, and his mood returned to calm.

He let go of his hand and said, "Things are terrible." He recounted the recent events in detail, and then said, "I didn't expect Lauter to find Lan Ting's identity, which is very bad." He paused Dun, added, "However, there is a good side to things. Because of Ge Bo's death, the relationship between the emperor and the eldest princess has become very bad, and the conflict has become superficial. In addition, Prince Haiya's escape will also draw a lot of their attention. The emperor no longer cares about the war against the country of Ole. Perhaps for him, the lions hundreds of kilometers away are not as frightening as the vultures staring at him above his head. If he is defeated, he only needs peace talks. There is only one way to die."

Crane thought for a while and asked, "Then what should we do?"

"Lanting must be rescued as soon as possible."

"Did Lautken let you transport items through the gates?"

Hovis stroked his forehead with his fingers, and said for a long time: "That tunnel can't be used. Because of Ami, Lauter promised not to give up my [-]% baby, but he is greedy, and after suffering such a big loss, he definitely won't." Willingly. He will find a way to prevent me from transporting things out, especially now that his relationship with Morton seems to have suddenly become very close. Maybe he has told Morton the truth. This method is very dangerous and we cannot take it lightly. To be on the safe side, find another way.”

"What do you want to do?" Crane looked at him.

Hovis closed his eyes and thought for a long time, then said: "Use the eldest princess. This woman will never be willing to make such a great contribution to the emperor's cronies. I will immediately write her a secret letter, explaining that I have done a good job to Lan Ting. He has been trained for too long and succeeded. But because Lauter and Morton were interrogating him, I hinted at Lan Ting not to allow him to surrender. I want to dedicate him to the eldest princess, and she will interrogate him personally. Subdue an enemy country Being a noble is a very fulfilling thing, and it will win her the admiration of more courtiers, she is definitely willing. We will rescue Lan Ting on the way from the prisoner-of-war camp to the airport."

"Yes, master, I will arrange everything."

"There is also the latest defense map of Fancheng, and the deployment of troops in nearby towns, which must be handed over to the 'family' as soon as possible. Judging from all the circumstances, I guess that the 'family' should have a traitor, and it is also a core figure. I will Find a way to figure out this matter here, and take precautions at home.”

In the end, Hovis lowered his voice and said, "Immediately notify the Dead Leaf Butterfly and agree to implement the 'Cocoon Breaking Project'."

"Yes, Master."

Duowei walked over with a small bowl of water, Lan Ting opened his eyes at some point.He looked at Duowei in some confusion, then at Gail who was protecting him, and said hoarsely, "I... didn't die?..."

Duowei brought the bowl to Lan Ting's lips: "Take a sip, they dragged you back. At that time, you were unconscious, as if you were dead. We were all terrified and thought you had been severely punished. "

Lan Ting greedily drank all the water, and licked his lips meaningfully: "It's almost the same, they actually dragged me out and shot me."

"Shoot?" Duowei's eyes widened, and he laughed for a while, "No way, haha, these idiots, they thought... haha... oh, oh, what a genius." He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "Who came up with this idea, it's so fucking great."

Lan Ting shrugged: "It's probably that Laut." He got up and stretched his muscles and bones, and there was no serious problem except that the muscles were a little stiff. He turned back and smiled at Gail: "Thank you."

Gail hurriedly said: "It should be, captain." He admired Lan Ting wholeheartedly, and every time this honest and loyal boy was thanked by Lan Ting, he would feel a little embarrassed.

"Why are they trying to deal with you so deliberately." Duowei frowned, "As usual, it should have stopped long ago, and you don't have very important information."

Now that the enemy already knew about it, it would be unreasonable to hide it from our own people.Lan Ting said casually, "They found out my identity from somewhere."

"Identity? What identity? Are you still the heir to the throne?" Duowei was amused by his own joke.

Unexpectedly, Lan Ting nodded generously: "I didn't guess right, but it's about the same."

This time it was Duowei's turn to be dumbfounded: "No, really." He sat down next to Lan Ting, "Hurry up and talk."

"I am the heir of the Lan Corps."

"Lan's Legion? That is, the Lan's Legion, one of the four major families?" Duowei shouted in surprise, and the prisoners in a cell were startled.

Lanting nodded.

Duowei opened his mouth so wide that an egg could be stuffed in, and he stammered for a long time before saying, "No...it can't be...it's not like there is a Major General Lanwei..."

"Lan Wei is my cousin, and he is currently acting as the temporary representative of the Legion's affairs."

Duowei didn't speak for a long time, and the others didn't make a sound, and the cell suddenly became extremely quiet.Lan Ting rubbed his head, feeling very uncomfortable, he explained slightly apologetically: "I'm not...not trying to hide it, but, I..."

"Aha, you boy!" Duowei punched Lan Ting heavily, almost knocking him down, and couldn't help but reach out and rub him.Duowei shouted excitedly: "Why didn't you say it earlier! You have fooled us all! Brothers, we can't let him off easily, right?!"

Everyone laughed: "That's right, you kid is too mean." "It's too disgraceful to hide us from us." "Quickly, find out all his condolences and divide them up!" "Where is it? Yes, you smoked the last fucking cigarette last night." "You still ate an extra piece of butter bread."...

Lan Ting looked at these brothers and sisters who were in the same boat through thick and thin, and his heart was filled with emotion, and he couldn't help showing a big smile.

Duowei stepped forward and touched him: "Okay, you, don't laugh like a fool. I said you are also a member of the upper class, let us reveal some inside information."

Lan Ting blinked: "What's the inside story?"

"I heard that the daughter of the Duke of Post had an affair with the emperor, is it true?"

At the beginning of Duowei, other people were unwilling to be lonely and rushed over to join in the fun: "Yes, I also heard that Colonel Carter is suave and has too many mistresses to count." "And Monica Monica, oh my Monica Ka, the number one beauty in the country of Ole." "I heard that the queen is going to get a divorce..."

Lan Ting broke out in a cold sweat, everyone loves gossip.

He was so entangled by everyone that he still told some romantic anecdotes circulating in the upper class.But he wasn't interested in this at first, and since he was a soldier and went to the front line, the news was even more limited, and it was nothing more than a few things.But everyone already felt quite satisfied, a real nobleman, sitting next to him and telling stories, how many times can this kind of scene happen in a lifetime?

After finally waiting for everyone to listen to it, they felt that their curiosity was satisfied, and they dispersed one by one.Lan Ting wiped off his sweat, deeply feeling that facing the vicious Lauter, he was not so nervous.

Duowei pulled Gail to Lan Ting's side: "Hey, Lan Ting, Gail has something to ask of you." He pushed the red-faced and shy Gail: "Tell me, what are you embarrassed about?"

Lan Ting patted the ground beside him: "Sit down and speak slowly."

"Actually...it's not a big deal..." Gail's face turned redder, as if bleeding was about to bleed, "It's just...just..."

"Oh, I'll tell you for you." Duowei was impatient, and couldn't see the hesitation of others, so he rushed to say, "Gail's family has a fiancée who promised to get married after the war. His fiancée most yearns for Pease in the imperial capital." Man cathedral, I really want to get married there, Lan Ting, please help me."

Lan Ting looked at Gail and said sincerely: "Congratulations. Don't worry, this matter is on my shoulders. Not only will you and your fiancée get married in Pisman Cathedral, but the archbishop will also be invited to officiate the wedding for you."

Gail raised his head suddenly, unable to believe his ears: "Really...really..."

"Really." Lan Ting smiled, "The Archbishop and my cousin have a very close relationship, and he will definitely agree."

"Thank you, thank you so much." Gail was incoherent with excitement.

"Your fiancée is beautiful." Lan Ting asked with a smile.

Gail scratched the back of his head, laughing silly.

"It must be beautiful, needless to say?" Duowei lay on his back with a straw stick in his mouth, and folded his hands behind his head: "Oh, I also miss my daughter-in-law a little bit, and my daughter, It's almost six years old."

"It's okay." Lan Ting said firmly, "Fancheng is about to be captured, Puman Kingdom is about to surrender, and then we will go back together."
