The general went out again at night

Liu Yan searched around in Xia Qingshu's camp, but couldn't find the "that thing" she was talking about.

This can't be blamed on Liu Yan, "that thing" is too big, if it is possible, she sees that many things are possible.

"How?" Seeing Liu Yan passing by her side, Xia Qingshu asked anxiously.As soon as she asked, there were hurried footsteps outside the tent.

Thinking that His Highness the Eldest Princess came back, Liu Yan made no sound, pursed her lips and shook her head.

Xia Qingshu nodded, her eyes flickered, and motioned for her to put away the leaves and flowers on the ground.

Liu Yan understood, picked up the flowers and leaves, quickly put them in his pocket, then turned around, and tidied up the house for Xia Qingshu with a natural expression.While tidying up, she looked for "that thing" that the tree coffin man was afraid of.

Ji Qianyao's footsteps were in a hurry. The strong wind just now made her heart skip a beat. Before she finished explaining the matter, she hurried back.

Just now she was in the kitchen explaining the meals to the cooks, but unexpectedly, a strong wind blew out outside, blowing out the candles in the tent, the kitchen was very dark, and then the strong wind blew in from the open door, blowing the inside into chaos .

While reeling, Ji Qianyao recalled that when he left Xia Qingshu's tent, he hadn't closed the curtain properly, and now he was afraid that the tent would be so messy if it was blown by the wind.

Xia Qingshu had difficulty moving, and was lying on the recliner by herself. If something messy fell on her, what should she do?

"Xia Qingshu." Before entering the camp, Ji Qianyao couldn't resist the worry in his heart, and called anxiously.

"Your Highness." Xia Qingshu replied, and as soon as the voice fell, Ji Qianyao, who was full of anxiety, walked quickly to her side.Xia Qingshu frowned.

"There was a strong wind just now, I didn't close the door curtain properly, are you okay?" Ji Qianyao walked in a hurry, fine sweat dripped from Ji Qianyao's face.Her hair was blown by the strong wind, and the hair on her forehead was a little messy, and she hadn't had time to tidy it up yet.

"I'm fine. Liuyan is outside. As soon as the candles dimmed inside, she came in immediately." Xia Qingshu comforted her softly.

"Fortunately." Ji Qianyao breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

Xia Qingshu said with a smile: "I'm fine, but the tent is not very good, the strong wind blows, and the ground is in a mess."

"It's lucky that people are fine." Ji Qianyao looked up and glanced at the room, then lowered his head and said, "It's okay here, I was in the kitchen just now, and I was blown to this side, and the leaves were flying all over the place, it's much more messy than yours here. They are still packing up, and it is estimated that they will not be able to eat until later."

It turned out that other tents were also blown by the strong wind, not only in this place, but candles in other places were also blown out by the wind. Xia Qingshu's eyes flickered, and he secretly took note of these details.

After half an hour, the camp was tidy again, and the food in the kitchen was ready, and someone was sent to bring it.Xia Qingshu couldn't do anything, the meal was naturally fed by Ji Qianyao.

Xia Qingshu tried her best to keep her words and expression calm and calm, but Ji Qianyao still noticed the clue.

In the past, if she had the opportunity to feed like this, she would have to say a few glib words.Today, it is extraordinarily "well-behaved".And the smile in her eyes was very shallow, floating on the surface, deliberately hiding something.Eighty to nine out of ten things that are hidden by laughter are not good things.

The two of them are connected, and of course Ji Qianyao doesn't want Xia Qingshu to hide anything from him, especially big things.

"Pa—" Ji Qianyao put the empty bowl in his hand heavily, and when it touched the table, it made a loud noise.

Xia Qingshu walked away for a moment, and was taken aback. She was already guilty, and she couldn't help but dodge when she met last Ji Qianyao's eyes.Licking his lips, Xia Qingshu asked weakly, "Your Highness...what's wrong?"

"What do you say is wrong with me?" Ji Qianyao's displeasure was written all over his face, shining brightly.

"I don't know..." Xia Qingshu was stunned for a moment, and then she understood a little, maybe her poor acting skills have already been seen through?

"Give you another chance to think about it?" Ji Qianyao narrowed his eyes and his voice became cold.

Eight or nine out of ten it was discovered.

"I..." After choking two or three times, and hesitated for a moment, Xia Qingshu still didn't think about what to say.

Ji Qianyao stood up without saying a word, picked up a handkerchief and wiped her hands, with a cold face, she bent down and picked up Xia Qingshu's clothes without any explanation.

"What...what are you doing!" Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, can just... pick people's clothes randomly when she is angry?She didn't know it before!Xia Qingshu panicked, she couldn't move, she couldn't resist, what could she do?Can only be slaughtered by others.

"Wait, let me tell you! Let me tell you! I'll be frank and lenient! I'll tell you everything!" Xia Qingshu yelled loudly when his clothes were about to be stripped clean.

"It's decided to talk now, it's late, let's talk inside with me." Ji Qianyao smirked, and carried Xia Qingshu into the bedroom.

terrible!Such a princess is too scary!

Xia Qingshu soaked in the warm tub, and it took him a long time to recover before he came back to his senses.

Ji Qianyao moved a low stool and sat by the bathtub, with his elbows on his knees and his chin on his palms, and he looked at Xia Qingshu who wanted to get into the cracks in the ground with his big eyes.

Xia Qingshu soaked in the medicated bath prepared by Doctor Jiang, pursed her mouth, what the hell, it was all her own thinking...

"Let's go ahead, you said you want to be frank and lenient." Ji Qianyao stared at her with a smile and cast a mischievous wink.It's still fun to play tricks on General Xia once in a while.

Xia Qingshu puffed her cheeks, faltering and saying: "I haven't... haven't thought about how to say it..."

"Think slowly, I'm not in a hurry." Ji Qianyao said that she was not in a hurry, but in fact, she rolled up the sleeve of one hand and soaked half of her palm in the hot water in front of Xia Qingshu.

What does this mean, of course Xia Qingshu understands it, she is about to cry, and Her Royal Highness the eldest princess...would she also take advantage of others' danger to bully others?

"What's General Xia thinking?" Under Xia Qingshu's staring gaze, Ji Qianyao lowered his hand a little more underwater.

"Think it over, think it over!" Being forced by her like this, Xia Qingshu couldn't control it anymore, and said whatever came to her mind.

Ji Qianyao withdrew his hand, took the cotton cloth on the side, and wiped off the water stains on his hands: "Speak."

Xia Qingshu murmured: "I met the tree coffin man just now, and it sneaked into my tent..."

It really wasn't a trivial matter, Ji Qianyao lost his smile: "How long ago?"

"It was when the strong wind blew, and the candles in the camp dimmed, it sneaked in."

"Were you alone in the room at that time?"

"Yes, Liuyan came in after the wind stopped."

Ji Qianyao's heart sank: "What did it do to you?"

"Its branches wrapped around my ankles, slowly tightening, and the main body came closer to me. But somehow... suddenly, it stopped, the restraints on the ankles were loosened, and the tree The coffin man left suddenly."

"Sudden departure? What did you do to it?"

"I look like this, how can I do anything to it? I wonder if there is something in the tent that scares the tree coffin man. It suddenly senses the existence of this thing, and its fear is greater than its intention to kill me. escaped."

"Have you ever looked for this thing?"

"I asked Liu Yan to look for it, but she didn't find it."

The general story was told in the Q&A. Ji Qianyao sighed, looked into Xia Qingshu's eyes and said, "Why did you hide it from me?"

Xia Qingshu lowered her eyes, and said slowly: "I didn't want to hide it from you, I was just in a mess and didn't think about what to say. When I think about it, I will definitely tell you."

"Xia Qingshu, to be honest, are you... scared?"

The pretense in Xia Qingshu's eyes dissipated easily, and was replaced by deep worry. She didn't hide any more, and revealed her true thoughts: "I'm afraid, I can't beat it, I'm afraid it will kill me, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect it you."

Xia Qingshu's eyes were full of worry, Ji Qianyao opened his arms, hugged her into his arms, rubbed the back of her head, and coaxed: "Don't be afraid. Everything has its weaknesses. Now we found the tree coffin man The trace of weakness, as long as we find it, we can deal with the Tree Coffin Man. Besides, you have never fought against the Tree Coffin Man, how do you know you can’t beat it? You have to have confidence in yourself, General Xia in my eyes is very powerful , not only a martial arts prodigy, but also justice, bravery, and kindness, no matter where it comes from, it will not be your opponent."

"I'm ashamed to be praised so much by you." Xia Qingshu buried herself in Ji Qianyao's neck, bit her lower lip, and secretly smiled.Her flustered heart suddenly settled down.

Ji Qianyao's simple and straightforward praise gave her a lot of strength.

"And, I'm not the soft and weak me seven years ago. I have subordinates, strategies, and martial arts. You don't have to worry about me all the time. You have to trust me. In times of crisis, I will protect myself."

"Well, I see."

With this heart-to-heart talk, the tree coffin man is not so scary anymore.Its strength is its business, and you are not afraid of yours. The two are related, but you can independently reduce the degree of this relationship.In this way, those negative effects will also be reduced.

Under Jiang Xueqin's treatment, Xia Qingshu's body recovered quickly, and she could move freely two days later.The spies from the front came to report, and there were conflicts within the Tatars again, and internal fighting continued.

Xia Qingshu quietly waited for the opportunity, the snipe and the clam competed for the fisherman's profit, and she wanted to wait for them to become a mess before dispatching troops to take them down.

After another five days of peace, the man in the tree coffin did not come again. I don't know if "that thing" in the tent played a role.

What "that thing" was, Xia Qingshu didn't find a clue, but she had checked the contents of the camp, and there was nothing missing, so she could be sure that "that thing" must still be in her tent.

At the beginning of the morning, the morning fog had not cleared, and the sound of a few hurried footsteps broke the tranquility of the military tent.

"General, the patrolling soldier picked up a strange thing, and I want to hand it over to you." Liu Yan led a black and thin soldier to Xia Qingshu.

"What is it?" Xia Qingshu put down the mansion newspaper in his hand, and raised his head to ask.

"A...letter..." Xiaobing hesitated.

"A letter for me? This soldier had a strange expression, which made Xia Qingshu feel a bad premonition.

"Yes." Xiao Bing presented what he said with both hands: "General, you will know after looking at it."

Xia Qingshu was sure that Xiaobing was his own, but what made him so abnormal?Xia Qingshu frowned. She took what was in Xiao Bing's hand, spread it out and looked at it. After only one glance, her expression froze.

Seeing Xia Qingshu's strange expression from a distance, Ji Qian immediately leaned over to her and glanced at her.

On Xia Qingshu's hands, there were two palm-sized bamboo leaves spread out. The bamboo leaves were green and fresh, with some water stains on them, as if they had just been picked from the bamboo.What catches the eye is not the bamboo leaf itself, but the three lines of characters hollowed out in the middle of the bamboo leaf.

"Xia Qingshu"

"someone is going to kill you"

"Only I Can Save You"
