The cannon fodder through the book will live to the end

The sound of begging for advice sounded outside the tent, breaking the warmth of the room.

After getting permission, Yan Zhen opened the tent door and came in with a smile on his face.He Zheng behind him looked a little dazed at this moment, unable to say anything.

Xiao Jingyu quickly came back to his senses. When he saw the two, he was a little puzzled and said, "Didn't you two go to interrogate Qi Keying together? Why so fast? Is there any problem?"

He Zheng's face was in a trance, he wanted to speak but stopped, and he stopped talking but wanted to.Finally, he looked at Yan Zhen and said nothing.

Xiao Jingyu, He and Tao Anran noticed this, with doubts on their faces.

Yan Zhen, on the other hand, came in and poured a glass of water first. After drinking, everyone looked at him.Only then did he clear his throat, and said, "The interrogation has come out. My lord, that Qi Keying said that he didn't want to throw an arrow in the back. Someone asked him to do it."

Xiao Jingyu personally refilled Yan Zhen's cup, and asked calmly, "Who is it?"

Yan Zhen smiled and replied: "He said he was from Dajin and cooperated with him. The man promised him that if he could kill you, he would give him all kinds of gold and silver treasures and all kinds of necessary supplies. You have persuaded some small tribes to cooperate in exchange of wool for supplies. They were very tempted at first, but they need to exchange after all. Since there is no cost to buy and sell, and we have years of hatred between the two sides, it is only natural to choose vendetta. So While he pretended to agree to consider the wool trade, he secretly got people to snipe at him."

Xiao Jingyu was still very calm, and was able to bypass him and make a promise to the enemy, with the purpose of killing himself.After his death, the person who benefits the most is naturally the most suspicious person.The answer is already there.

Before he took the magic medicine, his health was already bad.Presumably they should know that they don't have much time.They were so impatient that they would rather cooperate with the enemy than ensure their own death.

Xiao Jingyu asked lightly: "Has that person been found? Since we cooperated, did you leave a token?"

Yan Zhen shook his head, "I left after discussing the cooperation. I didn't leave any tokens, only paid a deposit, two hundred gold."

Xiao Jingyu sneered and said: "I already know the person who wants my king's life. That person probably didn't go far, so he will definitely observe the situation secretly to see if the king is dead or not. Afterwards, he will send people to strictly investigate the people who passed by recently. People. However, this king only found out today that his head is only worth two hundred gold!"

The people in the camp did not dare to speak, Xiao Jingyu was obviously angry.

Seeing that there was nothing else to do at this time, Yan Zhen bowed and left.Xiao Jingyu hurriedly asked people to go down to rest.But when he saw that He Zheng was about to retreat, he couldn't help asking: "Military Master, when you entered the tent, your expression changed in various ways, why?"

He Zheng raised his head and said after a long while: "It's nothing, this subordinate just saw some incredible things. This subordinate will leave first."

After finishing speaking, with the expression of wanting to ask questions regardless of the prince and princess, he quickly backed away.It's not that he doesn't want to say it, he really doesn't know how to say it.

It was the first time that He Zheng saw someone who could use divination to interrogate the enemy.Then the enemy really believed that, not only knew everything without saying endless words, but also prayed and repented to him devoutly in the end.No torture to extract a confession, no verbal stimulation, just a few friendly words.

This is too exciting, he has to go back slowly.

Xiao Jingyu and Tao Anran looked at each other, both confused.That's why they didn't see Yan Zhen's mouth curled up in triumph.

The army returned to camp after a great victory, so naturally there was a celebration banquet.In the camp, Zhu Tao, Tian Tuhu, Sun Fen, Zhou Beixiang, He Zheng, Yan Zhen, Qu Zhishui, plus Xiao Jingyu and Tao Anran, the crowd was full.

Although it was a celebration banquet, the conditions of the barracks were limited, and the food was not much better than usual. Even if there was more oil in the dishes, it was considered an extra.However, because of the great defeat of the enemy army this time, the enemy may not dare to make a mistake this year.This is considered a great victory, so there is another bowl of wine in front of each table, which is regarded as a reward.

The celebration banquet is not about food and drink, but about the atmosphere.Before it even started, the soldiers outside the camp were bustling and lively, as happy as Chinese New Year.On the contrary, the atmosphere of the people in the camp was quiet.Tao Anran thought it was because of their temperament, but then realized that it was because of his presence that everyone became cautious.

Xiao Jingyu noticed the atmosphere of the scene, and first introduced: "This great victory of the army is all due to your efforts. But before that, let me introduce it formally. This is my princess, and I am indistinguishable from the princess. Everyone see him Just like seeing me."

Everyone in the venue immediately understood the status of the princess.Although they also knew the importance of the princess before, they didn't expect it to be so important. The prince put his position with himself.

Everyone quickly stood up and saluted, calling out: "I have seen the princess."

Seeing Xiao Jingyu's encouraging eyes, Tao Anran quickly nodded, "You don't have to be polite, please sit down."

Xiao Jingyu continued to introduce in sequence, "This is the deputy general of the army, General Zhu Tao. This is Captain Tian Tuhu, and this is Captain Sun Fen. This is Zhou Beixiang, the grain and grass officer in the army. He is in charge of the dispatch of grain and grass in the army."

After Xiao Jingyu introduced the left side, he started to the right side, "This is He Zheng, a military strategist, who is good at strategy. This is Mr. Yan Zhen who just joined, also known as Mr. Jushan. He is a good fortune teller and saved my life this time. This is Qu Dr. Zhishui Qu has top-notch medical skills."

Having said that, everyone has a little understanding of each other.Especially everyone is very curious about the new Mr. Yan.I especially want to ask him to do the math, to see if his divination works well.

Yan Zhen noticed the curious look on the opposite person's face, and he couldn't laugh or cry: "I don't do fortune-telling easily, and I have to charge money. It's not expensive, and I'll give you a friendly price, twelve taels once."

Tian Tuhu quit, all his money was used to buy wine, so there is no money left.And the price is too expensive.So he tried to play the emotional card and said, "Old Yan, we are all in the same group now, why are you still charging money? Or, you can do the math for me for free first, and I will give you the money if the math works."

Yan Zhen took a look and replied, "You have no money."

Zhou Beixiang smiled and said, "Mr. Yan's calculations are really accurate, but he just has no money. Hahaha!"

Everyone knew Tian Tuhu's temper, and laughed unceremoniously.Tian Tuhu looked at them, scratched his head and said, "Forget it, then I'm not the head office. I'll do it when I have money."

Sun Fen continued: "I'm afraid it will take a long time, or if you quit drinking and don't use money to buy alcohol, that's probably the way to go."

Everyone laughed again.The atmosphere in the arena became lively.

Xiao Jingyu also said, "It's even more difficult for Xiaowei Tian to quit drinking. But today, I can have a small drink. Let's drink this bowl of wine together to celebrate this great victory."

Everyone raised their wine bowls, shouted "Yes", and then drank the wine.Tao Anran was also affected by the atmosphere, after drinking a few sips of wine, her face turned red immediately.Seeing this, Xiao Jingyu quickly removed the bowl of wine and poured it into his own bowl, and replaced him with tea.

After all, he was still in the army, so he couldn't drink too much. After drinking a bowl of wine, everyone began to eat food tacitly.

Tian Tuhu picked up the vegetable leaves in front of him, and asked, "Old Zhou, why is there no meat in this celebration banquet? Didn't we catch a lot of sheep? Didn't you let Lao Chen in the kitchen slaughter them?"

Zhou Beixiang got up, gave him the minced meat in his bowl, and said as he picked it up: "This is the mutton you caught. Old Chen slaughtered it a long time ago. This dish is all cooked with mutton bone soup. You haven't heard of it." Come out? Don’t even think about it, there are so many of us, relying on the few sheep you caught, we can only share some minced meat for each of us."

Tian Tuhu smacked his lips and began to miss the time when he went out to fight.At that time, if you win the battle, you will kill and eat the cattle and sheep that the enemy has no time to take away, so that you can eat meat happily.

Tao Anran also saw the minced meat in the bowl, the cabbage and tofu smelled like meat, but the taste was not bad.However, he does not lack meat, and he feels that it is acceptable to be a vegetarian once in a while.If it has been like this in the barracks, it will be too hard for the soldiers.

He saw that Xiao Jingyu was not picky at all, and everyone else started to eat quietly.Even Tian Tuhu, who seemed to be complaining just now, was eating food.

Xiao Jingyu noticed that the princess had stopped her chopsticks, and asked with concern: "What's wrong? It's not to your liking?"

Tao Anran shook her head, but did not speak yet.Over there Zhou Beixiang seemed to have heard this, and quickly said: "If the princess is not used to eating, I will ask Lao Chen in the kitchen to make something else. There is still some lamb bone soup, how about asking him to make some noodles?"

Tao Anran saw that Xiao Jingyu was about to give such orders, and quickly pulled him and said, "Don't be so troublesome. I can eat. I just want to say that you work so hard on weekdays but you can't eat meat. How about I give you some money to buy meat for you?" ?"

When Zhou Beixiang heard this, he quickly refused, "Princess, you're welcome, there's no need to be so. We also hunt and eat some meat on weekdays. And with so many soldiers in the army, it will cost a lot of money to let everyone eat meat. A fee."

Zhou Beixiang is the one who knows the military expenses best. In the past, food and grass were all squeezed out.There are also weapons, armor, food, etc. that cost money.This year the situation is a little bit better, and everyone can still eat some meat now and then.

In order to guarantee the supply in the army, he knew that the palace probably didn't have much money.Now that the princess is kind enough to pay for the meat, it is estimated that the money spent is her own money, what is more, the dowry.I have never heard that the concubine's natal family is rich, so even if she spends all her own money, it may be a drop in the bucket.

After hearing this, Tao Anran made some calculations, and said cautiously: "I probably have a thousand gold, I don't know if it is enough to treat you to a meal of meat."

Zhou Beixiang then refused: "Thank you, Princess, for your kindness, but 1000 taels is far...a thousand...gold?"

What Zhou Beixiang said made him doubt himself, did he hear wrong?He looked around and saw that other people seemed a little confused.

Zhou Beixiang hurriedly asked: "Wangfei said it was a thousand pieces of gold? Do you really have to spend so much money to buy meat?"

Tao Anran nodded and said: "It's one thousand gold, that's ten thousand taels of silver. I figured out that pork is cheap in the market, about ten cents a catty, and a pig is one hundred catties, it's one tael of silver. One thousand gold can buy one tael." Tens of thousands of pigs, each of you should be able to share a few catties of meat. Of course, if there are not so many pigs, you can only buy other meat instead, so the meat for each person will probably be less."

Zhou Beixiang nodded straightly, so that everyone can eat a big piece of meat.He didn't refuse any more, and quickly said: "My brothers and sisters are very grateful to the princess."

Just thank you, everyone is a little curious about how the princess is so rich.Their monthly salaries, not to mention other food and cloth, but in terms of taels of silver, are only a few dozen taels of silver per month.

Xiao Jingyu saw everyone's doubts, and said with a smile: "Princess likes to do some small business on weekdays."

His tone was full of pride and pampering.

At this time, everyone looked at the princess again, as if they were looking at the God of Wealth who was throwing money, their eyes were full of light.
