Chapter 171 Jiang Xinzhi's whereabouts

A small butterfly in the capital flutters its wings, and can only fan a small invisible wind, and no one knows whether these thousands of strands of wind can become an irresistible storm tens of thousands of miles away. However, at this moment, the slight changes that have taken place in the capital during these days do not seem to have spread to the battlefield thousands of miles away.

It's a vast desert with sporadic grass growing in the desert, and the vegetation here is not abundant, so there are not many cattle and sheep grazing here. At a glance, it was nothing more than a tent set up by marching and fighting. These tents were covered with thick felt jars to prevent people from freezing at night.

In the innermost part of these tents that are arranged in a unique formation, there is a very strange tent, this tent looks very gorgeous, there are even thick tassels on the top, but there are a full ten guards outside, these people's clothes are slightly different from the brocade, and they seem to have a strong alien style.

A young girl in an emerald green dress walked in with a basket in her hand, and the guards outside let her go, and the girl lowered her head all the way, and after entering the tent, she silently put the food basket in her hand on the table, and brought out the food from the tray inside. After everything was arranged, she whispered: "Vice General Jiang, slave Jin'er, is a new girl, you should eat." ”

The man sitting on the chair in the tent raised his head, revealing a handsome face, his expression was slightly pale, and there was green stubble on his chin, but he did not look embarrassed, but had a different kind of chic. He was slightly stunned when he heard the girl's voice, and only said after a while: "You can speak official language, are you from Dajin Jingcheng?" ”

The girl lowered her head and whispered: "The slave maid is a person in the capital of the Dajin Dynasty, who was taken captive by the people of southern Xinjiang, and those people wanted to find someone to serve the master, so they sent the slave and maid over. ”

Jiang Xinzhi slowly set his eyes on the girl. The girl is not very old, it is the same age as sixteen or seventeen years old, her skin is also delicate, her eyes are large and smart, but there is an obvious burn scar on her left cheek, which abruptly destroys the beauty of the whole face, making her face look extremely terrifying. I think it is precisely because of this face that she was sent here to serve him as a prisoner, otherwise, she would really be a girl like a flower, and I am afraid that there will be no bones left that have been eaten by the soldiers here a long time ago.

Jiang Xinzhi narrowed his eyes: "You are from the capital, how could you be taken captive here?" ”

Jin'er was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The slave maid is the girl in the laundry room of the army who followed the Dajin Dynasty, and went out with a few sisters at night a few days ago, and happened to meet a pair of stragglers, so he arrested the slave and maid. ”

This doesn't sound flawed, and there will indeed be a group of female dependents in the army, which will be used for daily use on weekdays, sewing and cleaning. These female dependents live in other places on weekdays, and Jiang Xinzhi naturally can't see them one by one. As for traveling at night and encountering stragglers, it is not impossible.

It's just that Jiang Xinzhi listened to this girl's words, and always felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't say it, so he could only frown slowly. It's been a few months since he was caught here, and he doesn't know what's going on outside, these people are holding him but treating him politely, high-ranking officials are luring each other, and they are weak and loose in his tea and restaurant every day, so that he can't exert his strength all over his body, but he doesn't kill him, he doesn't know what these people want to do, but every day he thinks about a way to escape.

He said, "Since you were caught here a few days ago, you should also know how the battle is going on outside the road?" ”

His captors cut him off from the world outside, and he had no way of knowing what the current battle was like. I don't know what the army of the Great Jin Dynasty is like now, when he was captured, Guan Lianghan was also hit by an arrow, and the arrow wounded him was very deep, and he couldn't think of it overnight. The army cannot be left without generals for a day, and the war is precarious.

"General Guan is seriously wounded and can no longer lead his troops to the battle." Jin'er whispered: "Now that Dajin is retreating, the Tianjin Kingdom is pressing forward step by step, and the Dajin army has been forced to the area of Heiguan Cliff. However, Vice General Jiang did not have to worry, the slave maid heard from the head that day that the imperial court had sent reinforcements, and King Jinying led 100,000 Jinyi guards to arrive. ”

Jiang Xinzhiben frowned deeply when he heard this, but when he heard the last sentence, he couldn't help but be stunned: "King Jinying? He frowned slowly, since even Xiao Shao had sent him, he could see how tense the battle situation was now. Xiao Shao is the strength hidden in the depths of the Great Jin Dynasty, and it seems that he was born to fight against some kind of force, and he is hidden in the shadows on weekdays. The emperor's various forbearances towards Xiao Shao may not be without reasons, Jiang Xinzhi is not a stupid person, and he can always guess a few points in the days when he fought with Guan Lianghan. However, this hidden power of the Great Jin Dynasty is now in the public eye, and it is even going to be brought into the battlefield to have a fierce battle with the Jin Kingdom, what happened in it?

He pondered hard, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that Jin'er was looking at him without blinking. When she met his gaze, Jin'er looked like a thief who had been caught, blushing slightly and lowering her head, no longer looking at him.

Jiang Xinzhi keenly discovered that although this girl was born with an ugly face and dressed very ordinary, she kept saying that she was a slave. But that act in a disciplined manner is not a subordinate who is used to serving others. On the contrary, even with a few lines of flowing nobility. Some people don't have to pretend to be noble, especially those who are raised in high-ranking families, and their behavior from childhood to adulthood is influenced by the family, which naturally exudes the spirit of aristocracy. The girl in front of her is not like a slave, but like a young lady, compared to the young lady, she is a little less arrogant, like a simple and natural ordinary woman. But...... The appearance of an ordinary woman in the enemy camp is an abnormal thing in itself.

Jiang Xinzhi said slowly: "Since you are here to serve me, I will tell you that since you came here, there were three girls who served me in this tent, and they all died. ”

Jin'er was stunned and looked at him puzzled.

Jiang Xinzhi watched her expression tightly, and continued to say unhurriedly: "Because they are all spies sent by these people, trying to deceive my trust and trying to get information from my mouth. But I found out, and I thought about it. When their mission failed, they were dragged out of the city and killed. Their deaths are also very tragic, for example, before you came, I only finished cleaning up the corpses in this tent. His voice contained a deep oppression, and a sharpness of the tip of the sword, which burst through the air from the golden light in the rolling dark clouds, with a persecution that made people unable to resist, and made people have to tell the truth. He said, "Miss Jin'er, do you still want to stay with me?" ”

Jin'er was taken aback by his sudden words, but after a moment, she smiled and said, "The slave is just here to serve Vice General Jiang, so naturally she wants to stay by Vice General Jiang's side." If it's okay, Vice General Jiang should eat something first. ”

Jiang Xinzhi was slightly stunned, and when he looked at Shang Jin'er's eyes, he found that these eyes seemed to be a little familiar, but they were clear and crystalline, if he didn't really have anything else, he was too scheming. What he just said was not false, but it was not always true, some of them were certainly spies sent by the locality, and some were indeed real Dajin people, and they were even willing to save him from the cage for his own danger, but unfortunately they all died at the hands of these people.

As he was talking, a person walked in from outside the tent and glanced at Jin'er, but he didn't tell her to retreat, obviously treating her as nothing. As soon as the man saw Jiang Xinzhi's frowning appearance, he laughed: "Vice General Jiang doesn't look very happy today, what's the matter, is it boring here?" ”

The man was dressed in a gray robe from top to bottom, and his whole body was tightly wrapped, revealing only a smooth and thin chin, and his thin lips looked very beautiful. The voice was a young man, and his voice still had a bit of gorgeous charm, but I don't know why. He said: "Vice General Jiang, haven't you thought about it yet?" ”

"Your Excellency doesn't have to worry too much about me." Jiang Xinzhi smiled slightly: "There is nothing Your Excellency wants in the lower body." ”

The gray-clothed man approached and slowly approached Jiang Xinzhi, but his voice was full of a hint of laughter, like a gorgeous tail string on the string, with some itchy arcs, but it was inexplicably frightening, for fear that the strings would be broken by a high-pitched voice in the next moment. The gray-clothed man said: "Vice General Jiang, at this time, why do you have to hide anything?" I just want to know, who gave you that letter of yours? ”

"That letter" refers to the letter sent to him by Jiang Ruan Sai at the time of their separation three years ago, which details some of the tactics that the Tianjin Kingdom would use during the years of the war with the Heavenly Jin Kingdom, as well as some surprise attacks, and even the victories and defeats that would take place in the next few years. This letter has been of great help to Jiang Xinzhi, and in the past three years, he has studied this letter from time to time, relying on this letter to either plan or lure the king into the urn, perfectly destroying the enemy's sneak attacks again and again, and winning victory after victory.

However, there was a traitor in the army, and the traitor was Guan Lianghan's closest subordinate, the news came too suddenly, and more importantly, the subordinate had insight into the secret of the letter, and he secretly exchanged rumors with these people, this time he was calculated by the other party, on the one hand, his personal safety, on the other hand, there was an army of 100,000, and he gave in in desperation, Jiang Xinzhicai had to be captured, and Guan Lianghan was seriously injured.

And the contents of this letter are indeed enough to drive the enemy army crazy. A month ago, they tried some terrible ways to torture Jiang Xinzhi, but Jiang Xinzhi did not let go, and later they changed their minds and offered Jiang Xinzhi's good life to him, promising him high-ranking officials, but Jiang Xinzhi still did not let go.

Jiang Xinzhi is a person who does not eat soft and hard, and these people must have been familiar with Jiang Xinzhi's temper in the past few months of getting along. But they still chose this method, there must be some other purpose, Jiang Xinzhi can't think of it for the time being. But there is one thing, he must not confess Jiang Ruan's name.

Sometimes Jiang Xinzhi himself was also very skeptical about how Jiang Ruan knew about what might happen in the future. It seems that since Jiang Ruan was taken back to the capital from Zhuangzi three years ago, he has had some strange feelings. Jiang Ruan was just a girl with a somewhat indifferent temperament in front of him, maybe a little smart, but the strength of the unpredictable prophet, looking at the content, and then recalling the past, such as the incident of the Bochang Reservoir, it is really incomprehensible. But in any case, Jiang Ruan is a demon, a ghost, it is his sister, he will never do anything to hurt his sister, once these people know that the letter was written by Jiang Ruan, they will definitely think of arresting Jiang Ruan. Guan Lianghan still has a traitor around him, and there may not be no ambush in the capital, he wants to protect Jiang Ruan.

"I've said it many times." Jiang Xinzhi stretched out his index finger to support his head, looking naughty: "It's just that I picked it up at random on the road, maybe it's the will of God." Your Excellency must ask, you may as well ask the heavens. Maybe Cang Tian thinks that your heavenly Jin Qi is about to run out, so he sent a will to help me Dajin, in this case, for the sake of your Excellency treating me with sincerity these days, I also mention Your Excellency, you might as well obey the destiny of heaven, everyone is comfortable, isn't it? ”

He is such a calm and introverted person, but now he is talking nonsense seriously, and he also puts on a raunchy appearance, but this appearance not only makes people feel annoying, but makes people feel extremely interesting and want to get close unconsciously. Jin'er hung her head and hid a smile that quietly overflowed from the corner of her lips.

The gray-clothed man was not angry, but stood with his hands in his hands, nodded, and said, "I agree with what Your Excellency said about the destiny of heaven, but the destiny of heaven is not written by heaven. Even if God gave the Great Jin Dynasty a warning, but the prophecy of this warning still fell into our hands after the worst, what kind of destiny is this? ”

Jiang Xinzhi was silent for a long time before he spoke: "You are not from the Tianjin Kingdom, you are from Southern Xinjiang. ”

These people never talk about the affairs of the Tianjin Kingdom, the soldiers are stationed here on weekdays, and the outfits are not the soldiers of the Tianjin Kingdom, at first Jiang Xinzhi thought that it was a group of secret troops cultivated by the Tianjin Kingdom, but later it was found that it was not necessarily the case, but it made people think of the rumored Southern Frontier Kingdom. When the emperor was alive, the southern Xinjiang invaded the Central Plains and almost took the entire Central Plains as his own, and later the first emperor personally drove the conquest to conquer the southern Xinjiang country, and the southern Xinjiang country was destroyed, and the remaining remnants of the southern Xinjiang were expelled to the edge of the Great Jin Dynasty to settle in the desolate land.

Jiang Xinzhi has lived in the capital since he was born, and he has never had the opportunity to see the remnants of southern Xinjiang, but now he has a faint suspicion in his heart.

The gray-clothed man smiled lightly when he heard this, and his smooth chin was slightly raised, drawing a strange arc: "Yes, we are from southern Xinjiang." So what? In this world, the most people in the world will become people from southern Xinjiang. In this world, the most reluctant will become our world. ”

Jiang Xinzhi shook his head: "Your Excellency wants to dream, I won't hinder you, but Your Excellency's question, I have already answered." Now, if your Excellency is all right, you can go out, and I will rest. ”

The man in gray was not annoyed by Jiang Xinzhi's words, but smiled faintly, turned around and walked out of the tent, but it was Jin'er, who watched the man in gray go away with some nervousness.

……

After the gray-clothed man got out of Jiang Xinzhi's tent, he walked straight to another tent in the opposite direction, this tent didn't look gorgeous, and even looked at it from a distance as bright as Jiang Xinzhi's, the whole body was snow-white, and when he walked in, he found that the tent was actually sewn with a large piece of snow fox skin, and the snow white on it did not contain a trace of impurities, it looked like the top of a snow-capped mountain that would not melt for thousands of years, and it contained a cold and strange beauty in the distance.

There were no guards outside the tent, and the man in gray paused at the door before he walked in.

There is a circle of amethyst curtains hanging in the tent, the spar of the good is crystal clear, flashing with a bright snow-white brilliance, almost to dazzle the eyes of the flower people, the candle flame lit in the tent is refracted by the bright stone, it is as beautiful as the Qionglou Yuyu outside the sky, a step in, as if walking into the magnificent and majestic paradise.

In the curtain, a figure was faintly revealed, seemingly dressed in red and unparalleled bright colors, sitting upright in front of the lyre, without plucking. The man in gray walked to the curtain and slowly bowed down, his demeanor revealing a complete respect.

"Holy Maiden." Gray is humane.

"How's it going?" In the middle of the night, a charming female voice came from behind the curtain. This voice is full of beauty, as if the first drop of blood water melted out by the ice stream in the first moment of the spring sun, with thousands of years of laziness and style, and with a kind of innocence that does not understand the world, just make people feel that they are almost drowning when they hear a sentence, and people can hardly help but open the shiny curtain to see how beautiful the people inside are.

"Yuanchuan is incompetent, please punish the saint." Gray is humane. In front of the woman, the man in gray lowered his noble chin, as if he were a devout believer, prostrate at the feet of his faith. Loyal and humble, he said, "He never spoke of the owner of the letter." ”

"Nothing." The person behind the curtain said lazily, almost like the beauty who woke up in Begonia Spring just stretched her waist, revealing a cat-like coquettishness: "If it is so easy to recruit, he will not be the god of war of the Great Jin Dynasty." ”

"What should we do now, holy woman? Or kill Jiang Xinzhi? The man in gray asked.

"No, I want to keep him, the god of war of the Great Jin Dynasty, such a heavy chip is a gift from me." The woman's voice suddenly jumped out with a little irrepressible joy, and a layer of sweet mist suddenly appeared in the already charming and crisp voice, which made people look unreal.

The man in gray was slightly stunned, as if he wanted to say something, but he still didn't say anything, just bowed his head respectfully, as humble and obedient as ever.

"He must have been very happy to see this gift I gave him." The sound in the curtain continued, and it seemed that all the laziness of Fang Cai had awakened at this moment, and it sounded like a child who did not know the world, innocent and pure, greeting the person he liked.

"Yuanchuan, he's coming." The woman seemed to be laughing.

"I've waited so long for him to finally see him again." She said.
