Chapter 259: Identity Exposed
At this time, the adjutant general, General Sun Li, stepped forward and suggested to Xiao Jingcong with his fists: "General Xiao, we are already very close to the northern frontier, and the soldiers are already very tired, so we can't march in such a hurry anymore, so even if we reach the northern frontier, we won't have much strength to fight." And it's not early now, the sun is about to set, with the intention of the last general, it is better to find a camp to settle down first, what does General Xiao think? ”
"Well, what General Sun said is extremely true, just with General Sun's arrangement." Saying that, Xiao Jingcong instructed everyone: "All the soldiers listen to the order, and immediately find a secluded mountain forest and highland to set up camp, there must be no mistake!" ”
"Yes!"
All the soldiers responded loudly.
After Xiao Jingcong finished ordering everyone, he glanced at Yan Zixi behind him, wanting to see how she was.
The road was a rapid march, and the bumps were unbearable, Yan Zixi's equestrian skills were not good, and they haven't eased up yet.
Xiao Jingcong walked over, carefully helped Yan Zixi off the horse, and then helped her into the shade of the nearby grove to rest.
Xiao Jingcong took off the water bag on his waist and handed it to Yan Zixi, and said with a smile in his mouth: "Xi'er, how is it?" You okay? I've told you a long time ago that marching and fighting is hard, now you know? Come on, take a sip of water! ”
When Yan Zixi heard this, she raised her head and glanced at Xiao Jingcong, then snatched the water bag from Xiao Jingcong's hand, pulled out the stopper and drank it with a big gulp.
After drinking, Yan Zixi wiped the water stains from the corners of her mouth, but completely ignored her ladylike image...... No, I'm not a lady at all, what kind of lady image do I need? What's more, I'm about to toss and die, so I don't need to think about anything else, it's good to be able to come back to life.
When Xiao Jingcong saw Yan Zixi like this, the smile on her face became even stronger, and she didn't forget to "mock" on the side, "Xi'er, drink slowly, don't choke, no one will rob you!" ”
"Ahem, cough, cough, ......"
Before Xiao Jingcong's words fell, Yan Zixi really coughed lightly several times, Yan Zixi glared at Yan Zixi fiercely, and then scolded: "Jingcong, do you think that this little setback can defeat me Yan Zixi?" I tell you, that's impossible! I will never be defeated by such a small difficulty, I am very resolute, since I have decided to march with you to fight, I can still bear this hardship! ”
As she spoke, Yan Zixi threw the water bag back.
Xiao Jingcong picked up the water bag, raised her eyebrows slightly, squinted and smiled: "Oh? Is it? Xi'er, you can remember your words today, I hope that in a few months, you will still be alive and vigorous, and you will be able to say such things with a free and easy face. ”
"Humph! Dare to underestimate me? Jingcong, let me tell you, I'm not a vegetarian! Don't look at me as a daughter, I'm no worse than the soldiers outside! Yan Zixi also deliberately raised her hand, as if she wanted to show Xiao Jingcong her mediocre biceps.
It's a pity that the armor restricted Yan Zixi's movements, and before he could raise his arm, Yan Zixi called out there.
"Ouch, no, no, Jingcong, this armor is too heavy, can I take it off now?" Yan Zixi complained to Xiao Jingcong.
When Xiao Jingcong heard this, he frowned and asked in surprise, "Now?" Not quite right, right? In case it is seen by other soldiers, it will not be good, after all, the most important thing in governing the army is military discipline, so ah, Xi'er, you have to set an example, if you want to take off your armor, you have to wait until the camp tent is built, and then take it off when you enter the camp tent. ”
"But...... But this armor has also sunk a little! Jingcong, do you think I'm a girl? Yan Zixi looked at Xiao Jingcong with teary eyes and said.
Xiao Jingcong shrugged his shoulders, sighed, and replied leisurely: "No way, you also know that it is impossible to have the armor worn by girls in the barracks." When you arrive in the northern city, you will see if you can find a blacksmith master and tailor a pair of light armor for you to wear...... Until then...... "Odd Book eBook."
Saying that, Xiao Jingcong's gaze glanced at Yan Zixi again, resisting the urge to laugh, Xiao Jingcong continued in his mouth: "...... In between that, I have to wronged you first! ”
"Humph! Dislike! ”
Yan Zixi heard that Xiao Jingcong was still making fun of herself at this time, stretched out her hand, pinched Xiao Jingcong fiercely, and then walked back to the camp.
At this time, the big tent of the Chinese army was almost built, Xiao Jingcong came over, praised those engineers, and then took Yan Zixi into the big tent of the Chinese army to rest.
"Whew! I can finally take off this thick turtle shell! As soon as he walked into the camp, Yan Zixi took off his heavy armor as he spoke.
"Turtle shell...... Poof......" Xiao Jingcong almost laughed out loud when she heard Yan Zixi's name for this armor, "Xi'er, you are really imaginative, you can even think of turtle shells?" ”
Yan Zixi rolled her eyes at Xiao Jingcong, and complained in her mouth: "Jingcong, is it original?" It's so heavy, and it's very bulky, isn't it a turtle shell? Saying that, Yan Zixi beckoned to Xiao Jingcong again, "Jingcong Jingcong, come over and help, this armor is too heavy, I can't take it off alone!" ”
Xiao Jingcong hurriedly walked over and helped Yan Zixi take off the armor, Yan Zixi threw off the heavy armor, moved her hands and feet, and felt that the whole person had become lighter.
"Well, that's right! Much more comfortable......"
While Yan Zixi was talking, the deputy general General Sun Li suddenly broke in without warning, and just happened to bump into this scene, seeing Yan Zixi's big ponytail and the sharp female voice, General Sun Li stayed in place, staring at Yan Zixi with wide eyes, and didn't react for a long time.
Yan Zixi saw that her identity as a girl was discovered by General Sun Li, so she hurriedly walked to Xiao Jingcong's side and stuck out her tongue at him.
Xiao Jingcong glanced at Sun Li, and said lightly: "General Sun Li, since you have seen it, then the king will not hide it." ”
Saying that, Xiao Jingcong pulled out Yan Zixi, who was hiding behind him, and introduced General Sun Li in front of him first: "General Sun Li, this king introduces you, this is the princess of this king, Yan Zixi, the princess of Zhenguo General's Mansion." ”
When Sun Li heard Xiao Jingcong's introduction, he regained his senses, shook his body violently, and knelt in front of Yan Zixi with a clever voice, clasped his fists and bowed.
"The last general, Sun Li, see Princess Xiao!"
"Ah, General Sun doesn't need to be polite, ...... quickly Hurry up! ”
Yan Zixi learned from Xiao Jingcong's appearance on weekdays and said to Sun Li.
Sun Li didn't dare to be sloppy, "Thank you, Princess Xiao!" ”
After getting up, Sun Li also stayed in place with a blinded face, not knowing what the situation was at all, Xiao Jingcong thought about it, and felt that Sun Li was his deputy general and his cronies, and Yan Zixi's matter would be known to him sooner or later, so it was better to tell him directly.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jingcong told Sun Li why Yan Zixi came here, of course, Xiao Jingcong inevitably added fuel and vinegar to Yan Zixi for a while, saying that the people who are worried about the country and the people are not at ease at the border, and they want to do their best.
After hearing this, Sun Li praised Yan Zixi on the spot, which made Yan Zixi a little embarrassed.
