Chapter VIII 5
In the evening, Jiang Rong was busy with military affairs and had no time to eat, so he asked Mingshu to go to the room to get some food.
Mingshu was ordered to come to the room. Asked the Huotou Army who was cooking for some food, and was going to serve it to Jiang Rong.
When he was about to go out, he bumped into the girl who had a life-saving grace for Jiang Zikai.
Mingshu couldn't help but look at her, she saw someone looking at her, and smiled at Mingshu very generously.
Then he said to the Huotou army next to him: "General, Hou Ye has not been well these days, can the slave family use the stove fire to boil a few pairs of medicine for Hou Ye?" ”
The firehead army was naturally happy, stared at her and said with a smile: "The girl wants to use it, of course you can, then I can light the fire for the girl?" ”
"Then there will be General Law." Miss Xiao Yan nodded and said with a smile.
Mingshu looked at her lovely person, and when I saw the pitiful look, I couldn't help but feel jealous.
He silently walked out of the room with his meal, thinking, "Since he has such a lovely person around him to take care of, what else should I do?" ”
"This place doesn't belong to me, I'd better go back! lest thou stay here, and increase sorrow. ”
When he was back in his tent, he packed his belongings and prepared to leave.
He didn't know much about the rules in the army, so he wanted to leave, so he was about to leave immediately.
He took his bags and walked out of the tent and went to the gate of the camp.
When he arrived at the door, he was stopped by two soldiers who were on vigil: "What are you doing?" ”
"Oh, I'm going home. Is it good to bother big brother to open the door? Park Mingshu said stupidly.
"This is an important place for military camps, how can you enter when you say you can enter, and go out when you say it." The two soldiers stepped forward.
"Trouble big brother, be accommodating!" Park Myung-su continued.
"You can't be accommodating, you have orders from above." A soldier asked.
Mingshu thought for a while and said, "No." ”
"Then you might as well go back." The soldier waved him away.
"Hey, big brother," Mingshu wanted to say something more.
Another soldier also spoke: "What are you going to do when you leave the barracks so late, aren't you a spy of the enemy?" ”
"yes, you're not going to be a spy, are you?" The soldier from before also reacted, aiming the spear in his hand at him.
"No, big brother, you misunderstood, I really just want to go home." Mingshu hurriedly waved his hand and explained.
However, the two soldiers no longer listened to his explanation, but stepped forward to capture him, escorted him, and said: "It is not up to you to decide whether it is a spy or not, go, go with us to the general." ”
"I'm really not a spy, you listen to me." Mingshu tried to argue.
But the two soldiers paid no attention to him, but took his burden and took him to the camp of the commander.
When the general heard that his subordinates had caught the enemy's spies at the gate of the camp, he naturally couldn't ignore the matter.
He asked his subordinates to bring the spies into the camp tent, and carefully interrogated and interrogated: "Say, who sent you?" ”
Mingshu replied: "General, I'm really not a spy, I just want to go home." ”
"Hmph, I ran outside the camp in the middle of the night, and said that I was not a spy. Is your home in the river? Then the Lord asked again.
"My home, my home is in the capital." Mingshu replied.
"The capital is far away from here, how can you get there tonight? Obviously lying! It's not easy to recruit from the truth. The Lord shouted.
"I'm really not a spy, why don't you understand, General? If you don't believe me, General Jiang Rong can testify. I'm working under him. Mingshu said.
When the general heard this, he became even more angry, and he commanded the soldiers next to him: "Go, pass Jiang Ronglai, and let him see what good soldiers he has brought with him." ”
The soldier had to be ordered to go, and after a while, Jiang Rong walked in: "Brother Wenbo, it's so late, why are you looking for me?" ”
When he caught a glimpse of Mingshu, he couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Hey, Mingshu, why are you in General Wen's tent?" ”
Mingshu hurriedly said, "General, save me!" ”
Wenbo looked at Jiang Rong and said: "General Jiang, this person escaped from the camp in the starry night and was captured by my subordinates, I suspect that this person is a spy of the enemy country. ”
Jiang Rong was a little puzzled and said, "How can he be a spy?" Then he asked Mingshu: "It's so late, what are you doing out of the camp?" ”
Mingshu lowered his head and said, "I, I want to go home." ”
General Na Wenbo sneered: "Hmph, ridiculous. This place is more than 500 miles away from the capital, how can you go back alone? ”
"I'm traveling day and night, and I can walk back." Mingshu said.
Jiang Rong stepped forward and said to Wen Bo: "General Wen probably misunderstood, he can't be a spy." ”
"I think General Chiang is confused, right? Do you believe such a ridiculous lie? Na Wenbo said again.
"How can General Nawen prove that he is a spy?" Jiang Rong listened to his strange tone of yin and yang, and couldn't help but ask angrily.
"Just because he went out of the camp on a starry night, he still carried such a big burden. Maybe there's a letter he brought out. Wenbo said as he threw Mingshu's baggage to the ground.
"If General Wen is not at ease, just open it and take a look." Jiang Rong said coldly.
"Open the baggage." Wen Bonu gestured to a soldier next to him.
The soldier stepped forward and opened the bag to examine it carefully, and it was full of clothes and a small clay figurine.
He spread out his burden and said to Wenbo and Jiang Rong: "Back to the two generals, there are no suspicious items in it. ”
"General Wen, what else do you have to say?" Jiang Rong looked at Wenbo and asked.
"Maybe the news he's going to take out is in his head." Wenbo continued.
"He is a small soldier and has never been in contact with any military core, what news can he bring out?" Jiang Rong retorted.
"Then how do you believe he's not a spy?" Wenbo asked.
"He came to join the army, but he was recommended by the king of Beixuan. Do you think the King of the North will be able to install an enemy spy in our army? Jiang Rong said.
"Even if you are not a spy and leave the camp without permission, you are still a deserter." Wen Bo flicked his sleeves and said coldly.
"Okay, General Wen, you and I have to give the prince a few thin noodles, don't we?" Jiang Rong endured it and stepped forward to persuade: "In this way, since he is a soldier under my account, then I will go back and teach!" ”
Wenbo also stopped talking. Seeing the situation, Jiang Rong glanced at the envoy of the Ming book and asked him to go out.
Seeing this, Mingshu didn't say much more. And he went out quietly.
Not long after he left, Cheng Wuhou came to the Wenbo tent.
It turned out that Jiang Zikai had no sleep at night, so he stood outside the tent and looked at the stars in the sky, thinking of the old man who was far away in the capital.
He thought to himself: "I wonder how Princess Nanxiang is doing recently?" Have you come out of your grief? Do you know that I am in Cangzhou, which is in the ice and snow, but I miss you every day. ”
"I have often dreamed of you these two days, sometimes in broad daylight, and I feel that you are right in front of me. Oh, you probably don't know, today I actually took a figure for you, and when I hurriedly ran up to look, I disappeared again. Hey, everyone in the world is lovesick, and since I met you, I finally feel the same way. ”
He was alone and melancholy, but he heard a few passing soldiers talking, "Have you heard? There is an enemy spy in our camp? ”
One soldier said, "Really? How did I not know? ”
"I was arrested just now, and that person wanted to leave the camp in the middle of the night, but he was arrested, and he was already brought to General Wen's tent." Another soldier replied.
When Jiang Zikai heard this, this matter was not trivial, and he would do his duty as he was in his position. As the commander of the battalion, he must find out about it.
So, he walked to General Wen's tent.
"Brother Wenbo, I heard that you caught a spy, I don't know how the trial went?" Jiang Zikai asked as soon as he entered the camp tent.
"The last general will see Master Hou." Wenbo and Jiang Rong said in unison.
"Get up! What about the spy? Jiang Zikai asked.
"Back to Master Hou, the person has been let go by General Jiang." Wen Bo glared at Jiang Rong and said.
"Master Hou, it was General Wen who misunderstood, that person is not a spy, just a pawn under my account, because he left home for the first time, he felt a little homesick in his heart, so he was stupid and wanted to go out of the camp and go home!" Jiang Rong hurriedly explained.
"How can the current recruits be so coquettish, and want to go home as soon as something happens, this person must not be left to his own devices, and must be severely punished." Jiang Zikai said and looked around, trying to shock everyone.
But when he glanced at it, he saw the burden spread out on the ground. In an instant, he seemed to have suffered a thunderbolt and was speechless for a long time.
He slowly bowed down, picked up the little clay figure on the ground, pinched it in his hand and looked at it again.
All I think about is the scene where he and Princess Nanxiang pinched the clay figure that day.
"What color should I paint my clothes?"
"Let's go red!"
"The red is too gorgeous, why don't you paint the lining jade white?"
Look at this little clay figure again, the clothes are red, the lining is jade white, and the shoes are exactly the dark color they set that day.
Although he didn't expect to see the finished clay figurine at the time, he believed it was no coincidence.
"What about others?" He couldn't hide his excitement and hurriedly asked.
Jiang Rong replied: "The last general has sent him back to the tent." ”
"Call him over." Jiang Zikai got up and said again.
"This man is my account, and if he sins, he will be punished. Please also ask the Hou Ye to be gracious. Jiang Rong knelt down and said.
"I told him to come over, didn't you hear?" Jiang Zikai said impatiently.
Jiang Rong had no choice but to shake his head. Wen Bo said to the soldiers on the side, "Go quickly." ”
"Wait, don't tell him that Ben Hou is looking for him." Jiang Zikai instructed the soldiers who were just about to go out.
"Yes."
Mingshu returned to his tent, and before he could sit down, he was taken back to the Wenbo tent.
As soon as he entered the tent, he saw Jiang Zikai standing in the tent with his back to him. He understood that Jiang Zikai knew everything.
The soldier stepped forward to report: "Master Hou, someone has brought it." ”
Jiang Zikai didn't speak, still standing with his back to him.
Jiang Rong kindly tugged at Mingshu's sleeve and reminded in a low voice: "What are you still standing for?" , hurry up and see Master Hou! ”
Mingshu didn't move, just looked at Jiang Zikai's back fixedly.
How did she know how much Jiang Zikai wanted to see her. Although his back was to her at the moment, the excitement in his heart was indescribable. His hands clenched into fists, holding back his pleasure, turned around.
glanced at Mingshu and asked, "How did you come to join the army?" ”
Mingshu lowered her head and replied, "I asked for the recommendation of the King of Beixuan." ”
Jiang Zikai nodded and asked, "When did you come?" ”
"It's been seven or eight days."
"Why are you here?"
"I want to see you, I want to see you." Mingshu looked up at him and replied.
