Who did it? !
Guan Yubai couldn't help but think of the woodcutter he met by chance that day. Xiao Yi quietly sent secret guards to investigate and quickly targeted the people in that village, but those people were obviously well-trained spies. , even the secret guards did not dare to get too close, lest they alert the enemy. After monitoring from a distance for a few days, I was sure that there were at least five or six people living in the village. These people took turns going up the mountain, gathering firewood or hunting in a regular manner, and they were doing a good job on the surface.
Unfortunately, once someone catches their eye, their behavior will be found to be full of mistakes - which village only has one or two people going out every day?
After Guan Yubai and Xiao Yi learned about the secret guard's return, they carefully considered it. First of all, the food purchased from the other party could almost confirm that there were about eight to ten people in the other party; secondly, regardless of whether these people Exposed to the sun and rain, there are bound to be people going up the mountain every day, and they are bound to pass by the trail "without leaving a trace". Obviously, their regular behavior should be related to this mission, and the purpose is to guard the trail. The trail to Dengli Castle.
So, why do these Nanliang people disguised as ordinary villagers guard that path?
The secret hidden in this may very well become a major discovery that affects the victory of this battle!
Xiao Yi decisively proposed using himself as bait to catch the Nanliang spies - as the prince of Zhennan, Xiao Yi was definitely a very tempting bait, almost enough to make those Nanliang people go crazy. Put yourself at risk!
To ensure that the people of Nanliang fall into their trap, they must make the other party take it lightly and underestimate Xiao Yi's behavior. Xiao Yi is very good at this kind of thing.
He and Guan Yubai called Nangong Yue and Fu Yunhe. After a secret discussion in the study room, they arranged the outing, pretending to be a group of young people out to enjoy the mountains and rivers.
These Nanliang people really took the bait.
Guan Yubai and Xiao Yi seemed to be leisurely and calm all the time, but they both secretly breathed a long sigh of relief. The most difficult thing about this operation is to catch everyone in one go. No one can escape back to Denli City and let Naykaro get any news. Otherwise, all the plans will be in vain.
Guan Yubai and Xiao Yi looked at each other in tacit understanding.
At this moment, Zhang Orion is already a prisoner, but he can still sit here face to face with Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai. Of course, it is not because Guan Yubai insists on telling him these things that everyone knows well. things, but for more important things...
"It seems that brother is still not going to say anything?" Guan Yubai tapped the table with his index finger carelessly, and said, "Since your country's coach is not willing to let you stay there for 'months', that path must be It's very important to him." Guan Yubai deliberately used a positive tone.
Zhang Orion gritted his teeth, raised his head, and looked at Xiao Yi coldly with a brave and fearless expression: "Xiao Yi, you don't have to waste your efforts! We Nanliang people are not weaklings, and I am nothing. I won’t say it!”
The tone and expression of his words were completely different from the previous naive ones, and there was even a hint of sharpness about him. Lily watched silently and thought to herself: Such acting skills are more than enough for even an actor.
Faced with this person's ignorance, Guan Yubai's mouth curled up slightly. "To say or not to say" cannot be tolerated by Orion. If the other party finds out that his identity is exposed, he will decisively commit suicide. Then he will There's really nothing you can do about him.
Even if a living person remains silent, he can "reveal" more information than a dead person.
For example, just now Zhang Orion confirmed one of his guesses. This group of people has been guarding this village for several months, and this order was indeed given by the coach Ikaro.
For another example, when people hear something relevant to them, they will inevitably reveal their flaws in some subtle expressions, such as sneer, fear, joy, pride... and it will also be reflected in their body parts, such as clenching fists, trembling, and expressions. Sweat...even if it passes by for a moment, there are traces.
So, when Zhang Orion and Dachun reported Xiao Ying's report just now, their uncontrollable panic made Guan Yubai convinced that they had pulled out all the hidden stakes in the village.
Look, even though the other party didn’t say a few words, he said a lot.
A slight smile appeared at the corner of Guan Yubai's mouth, and he raised his eyes to look directly at the hunter. His originally gentle eyes were like a sharp sword suddenly unsheathed, releasing a chilling fierceness.
Zhang Orion shuddered suddenly and subconsciously avoided the other party's gaze.
He has been on the battlefield for decades, and he has countless lives on his hands. To him, killing people is not much different from hunting in the mountains and killing chickens and ducks.
But just now, he actually felt the aura of a beast in this gentle and powerless young man. This man was by no means an ordinary scholar. He had killed countless people before he could show such a look.
This man is not a scholar or a counselor, he is also a soldier, a soldier fighting on the battlefield!
How is that possible? I don’t know how many times this kind of person has died as soon as he goes to the battlefield, right?
I don’t know why, but the contradictory feeling exuded by this person made Zhang Orion’s ominous premonition even stronger. Originally, he was just annoyed that he had underestimated Xiao Yi, and then he fell into the trap of the southern Xinjiang people. The good game that General Ikaro laid here has now turned into a panic deep in his heart, just like animals often have a keen intuition before various natural disasters come, and then escape... …
Obviously the war is not over yet, but at this moment he has a feeling that Nanliang seems to be losing...
Zhang Orion was already restless and couldn't help but wonder who this scholar-looking young master was. He looked at each other again and saw that the young master and the Prince of Zhennan were sitting side by side. Both of them looked at him with smiles, one soft and the other strong, but they were indistinguishable in terms of momentum. If this young master is really a soldier, he is by no means an ordinary soldier, but a figure who can be on par with the Prince of Zhennan!
When did the Southern Xinjiang Army have such a character? !
"Who are you?"
Before Orion Zhang noticed it, he couldn't help but blurt out the question.
Guan Yubai had no reaction, but Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows and smiled, and said four words: "I won't tell you!"
If it weren't for the fact that this occasion was so serious, so serious that it was about the military situation between the two countries, Lily would have almost stopped laughing. My eldest son is still so interesting!
But these four words of Xiao Yi come from the heart. Even if Xiaobai’s name is to be spoken, why bother telling such an unknown person? Guanyu Bai’s name will definitely spread throughout Dayu again, shocking the barbarians everywhere. But not here, in this small tile-roofed house.
At this time, Guan Yubai smiled slightly and answered the question inappropriately: "Brother Zhang, I have one last question to ask..."
His gentle voice echoed in the room. Not only Orion and Dachun, but also everyone else subconsciously held their breath. The room was quiet, except for his voice, it seemed that even the breathing of everyone was heard. Can't hear it anymore...
In a moment, the group of people left the room, and only Zhang Orion and Dachun stayed inside forever.
As soon as he came out of the house, he saw Xiao An standing expressionlessly in the yard, with two unconscious "Orion Hunters" lying scattered at his feet.
After Xiao An saluted Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi gave a gesture casually, and Xiao An understood the order with clasped fists, and followed Xiao Yi and his group out of the yard.
It is no longer necessary to keep these two Nanliang alive. They were originally kept because they were worried that Orion Zhang and Dachun would commit suicide like dead men by taking poison... Now that enough information has been obtained from their "mouths", the remaining There is no need to keep those who have left.
"Xiao Ying, please go to Yanding City to find out..."
Xiao Yi quickly ordered Xiao Ying, and Xiao Ying immediately followed the order and left. Xiao An also came out of the yard, and the faint smell of blood on his body made Nangong Yue and Han Qixia vaguely guess what he had just done.
Even if they are doctors, they will not sympathize with people who should not sympathize, and the same is true for Han Qixia.
Han Qixia looked around the empty village, bit her lower lip, and couldn't help but said, "Are all the people in this village..." She couldn't bear to continue, but everyone knew the answer well.
Everyone in this village must have died at the hands of the Nanliang people, so these Nanliang spies can disguise themselves as hunters and woodcutters and guard here.
And in this village, at first glance, there was no trace of blood left. So, where would those corpses...the corpses of so many villagers be hidden? ...Is it true that no one in the village escaped this disaster?
Han Qixia couldn't help clenching her fists and her face turned slightly pale. This is war! It was she who was once in the royal capital, so tragic and tragic that she could not imagine...
"Cousin Xia..." Fu Yunhe looked at her worriedly, feeling a little regretful that he should not have brought her out with him.
Nangong Yue was also looking at Han Qixia, as if he could see what she was thinking, and said, "Xiao An, have you and Xiao Ying checked the entire village?"
"Concubine," Xiao An replied with clasped fists, "My subordinates and Ah Ying have checked all the empty houses in the village. There is no one there. They only found some blood stains in one or two houses..."
Xiao Ying and Xiao An have been following Nangong Yue for several years. Nangong Yue is very clear about their ability to do things. The words he just said were not actually asking them, but just for Han Qixia to listen.
A faint light flashed in Xiao An's eyes, he hesitated for a moment, and hid the rest of his words. In fact, he and Xiao Ying also discovered the place where these Nanliang people buried stones, but it didn't make sense to talk about it or not.
Since your soul has passed away to the West, why should you care about where the body is buried!
After all, ashes return to ashes, and dust returns to dust!
Xiao An thought indifferently.
At this time, a gust of breeze blew in the face, and the sound of branches and leaves shaking could be heard all around, rustling, rustling... The faint smell of blood and the vague sighs of everyone disappeared in this cool breeze... …
In less than an hour, a rumble of steps could be heard outside the village. The leader was Yao Lianghang riding a red horse, and behind him were hundreds of soldiers wearing black armor running behind him.
As soon as Yao Lianghang received the summons from Xiao Ying, he led hundreds of elite soldiers from the Xuanjia Battalion to the village as quickly as possible. This mission is of great importance, and the soldiers he brings are all the elite among the elite.
"I have met the prince!"
Yao Lianghang dismounted at the entrance of the village and led a group of soldiers to respectfully perform a military salute to Xiao Yi.
"No courtesy!" Xiao Yi waved his hand casually, signaling them to get up.
Yao Lianghang already knew what happened here from Xiao Ying, and he couldn't hide the excitement on his face. After maintaining a balance for several months, there is finally hope for a breakthrough. This is a great opportunity for both the Southern Xinjiang Army and themselves.
"Ahang, I'll leave this to you!" At this time, there was no trace of laughter on Xiao Yi's face, and his expression was serious. He looked at Yao Lianghang with a pair of bright and deep eyes, which made Yao Lianghang feel more and more anxious. Passionate.
This is the prince's trust in him, so he entrusts him with such an important task! Yao Lianghang still maintained his clasped fist posture and responded sternly: "Your Majesty, I will definitely live up to my trust!"
After the words were spoken, the hundreds of soldiers of the Xuanjia Battalion also responded with clasped fists: "We will live up to our trust!"
The expressions and eyes of all the soldiers are almost the same, serious, sharp, and inviolable!
Our territory in southern Xinjiang is inviolable!
The blood feud of our people in southern Xinjiang must be avenged!
Everyone seemed to be swearing silently.
"Okay!" Xiao Yi laughed loudly, high-spirited.
Nangong Yue, Han Qixia and Baihui Lily on the side were even more shocked by the scene in front of them. As women who had never been on the battlefield, it was not until this moment that they truly felt the blood and faith of the soldiers. They were all so excited that their blood boiled.
After a moment, Xiao Yi and his party rode out of the village, handing it over to Yao Lianghang and the hundreds of soldiers of the Xuanjia Battalion.
The bodies of those Nanliang people were quickly cleaned up, and then the hundreds of soldiers disappeared, and the area calmed down again, as if the previous commotion had never happened, as if it was just an ordinary person In the mountain villages, only vegetation and birds make sounds from time to time in the breeze...
After finishing their business, Xiao Yi, Nangong Yue, Guan Yubai and others rode all the way back to Yanding City. Xiao Si, especially, was almost impatient: after wasting so long for those Nanliang people, Their Han Yu must be starving! She screamed so hard that her voice became hoarse!
Xiao Si frowned slightly and lowered his head to look at Han Yu who was hiding in his arms. He let out a pitiful cry from his bright yellow beak, but it was quickly suppressed by Xiao Hui's cry above Xiao Si's head. passed.
Xiao Si raised his eyes and glared at Xiao Hui angrily, his eyes seeming to say: Go away! Don't scare my Hanyu!
Xiao Hui let out a louder cry in dissatisfaction, seeming to be protesting something with Xiao Si.
At this time, Yanding City appeared at the end of the official road, and the city gate guards diligently opened the city gate to welcome the prince's return.
Everyone entered the city smoothly and ran directly to the garrison.
By the time they arrived at Dong'an Street, where the garrison was located, the sun had already begun to set, and the afterglow of the setting sun shrouded the entire Yanding City. Everyone had not eaten well all day, and only used it casually after dealing with the Nanliang spies. Some dry food, at this moment, they are all hungry.
The garrison mansion was just a few dozen feet ahead. Everyone began to slow down their horses, but they did not expect that something unexpected happened at the door of the garrison mansion.
At this time, the corner door of the Guard Mansion was open. A girl wearing a light blue plain brocade jacket and a little maid in blue were standing outside the corner door. A woman from the gatekeeper of the Guard Mansion was talking to her. Because there was still some distance between them when talking, no one could hear what they were saying. Only Guan Yubai stared at the mother-in-law's opening and closing lips and raised her eyebrows.
The little maid in green clothes heard the sound of horse hooves coming from behind, and quickly looked at the sound, with a smile on her face, and said something to the girl in the lake-colored dress. The next moment, the girl and the concierge's mother-in-law came together. Everyone looked at Xiao Yi and his party.
I saw that the girl was about fifteen or sixteen years old. She had a pair of bright willow-leaf eyes on her oval face that were half full of autumn. When she pursed her lips and smiled, a pair of shallow dimples appeared on her cheeks, which made people fall in love with her.
Her black hair was tied into a crescent bun, with only an elegant light yellow silk flower in her hair. At her age, her outfit was so plain that it made people look at her.
"Miss Sun..." Han Qixia blurted out in a low voice.
Nangong Yue, who was riding alongside her, also heard it and turned to look at her and said, "Sister Xia, do you know this girl?"
Han Qixia nodded and said: "We have met several times..."
As he spoke, everyone's horses had already arrived. When the concierge saw the return of the prince, he hurriedly opened the door to welcome him.
Miss Sun's eyes swept around the people on the horse. At the same time, she took two steps forward and saluted Xiao Yi first: "I have met the prince."
Xiao Yi glanced at her lightly and said nothing.
There was silence all around, and the atmosphere was a little awkward. At this time, Han Qixia got off her horse and said, "Miss Sun..."
Miss Sun straightened up and looked at Han Qixia, who was wearing a green robe, with a suspicious look on her face. She was startled and said uncertainly: "Miss Han, are you Miss Han?"
Han Qixia nodded and asked, "Miss Sun, why are you here?"
Miss Sun smiled slightly, and the dimples on her cheeks deepened, and said: "Miss Han, I heard that the Crown Princess came to Yanding City, so I came here to say hello." As she said that, she seemed to have thought of something, and revealed With a thoughtful expression, since Han Qixia is disguised as a man, will it be...
Thinking about it, Miss Sun quickly glanced at Nangong Yue, Baihui and others behind Han Qixia.
The concierge behind her looked embarrassed. She also knew the identity of Miss Sun, and did not want to neglect her. However, it was a coincidence that Miss Sun came. The imperial concubine happened to be out with the imperial concubine, and this There is no master in the house, and no one can receive Miss Sun.
Nangong Yue saw that Miss Sun seemed to be an acquaintance of Han Qixia, and said she was here to pay her respects. She raised her brows, got off her horse, walked forward and said, "Sister Xia, this girl is..." She There was no deliberate effort to hide her female voice, she was calm and composed.
When she heard Nangong Yue's name for Han Qixia, Miss Sun's eyes flashed and she thought: Sure enough, this one is the Crown Princess. She originally thought that the Crown Princess was the legitimate daughter of the Nangong family and would be a gentle and elegant girl, but she didn't expect that she would be such a casual person. ...Also, since the imperial concubine will accompany the army to deliver medicine to Yanding City, she must have a bit of the willfulness of a woman who refuses to give in to a woman.
Han Qixia hurriedly introduced Nangong Yue: "Yue'er, this Miss Sun is the eldest daughter of Mr. Sun who is guarding the front of Yanding City, and she is also the only bloodline of Mr. Sun..."
Han Qixia said it with a bit of sadness and emotion.
Nangong Yue frowned. When the Nanliang army came to the city, Sun Shoubei and Yanding City coexisted and died. The moment the city was destroyed, he committed suicide. This incident had already spread throughout Southern Xinjiang. And this Miss Sun, as Sun Shoubei's orphan, really cannot be neglected.
It’s no wonder that Miss Sun is so plainly dressed. It turns out she is observing filial piety for her family.
Miss Sun took half a step forward and bowed respectfully to Nangong Yue: "The daughter of the people, Sun Xinyi, has met the imperial concubine. The daughter of the people learned that the imperial concubine was coming to Yanding City, so she came to pay her respects to the imperial concubine."
Nangong Yue is exhausted and tired at the moment, but for this special Sun Xinyi, the Zhennan Palace must make a statement. This is also the Zhennan King's statement towards those heroes who died in the war.
"Miss Sun, no courtesy." Nangong Yue raised her hand slightly with a smile and praised, "Lan Xun Musk Yue, it has its own charm. What a good name!"
Sun Xinyi was blessed again and said: "Thank you for your concubine's praise, this is the name given to Xinyi by my late father..." Speaking of her deceased father, her eyes suddenly turned red, and a trace of joy appeared in her eyes. A faint layer of mist revealed a bit of sadness.
Nangong Yue said again: "Miss Sun, please follow me into the house to talk."
