Everyone turned their heads in surprise. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Just then, the woman walked in in a little anxiously and came to Zhu Zi'an. Because Zhu Zi'an's voice was the loudest just now, she just heard it when she passed by the General's Mansion.
The woman asked anxiously, "Do you know Cao Rou?" ”
The woman's eyebrows are pale and flat, and appear to be painted, and underneath the thrush is a pair of eyes desperate for answers. Dressed in a light blue cloth robe, he carried a bamboo basket around his waist in his right hand, which was filled with food.
Zhu Zi'an faced the face of a delicate and refined woman who suddenly appeared, and turned his head to look at Ye Cheng in a little confusion, looking at a loss.
It is rare for a rude Zhuzi An to have such a situation.
Ye Cheng saw that he hurriedly stepped forward, this woman knew Cao Rou, and he was also very concerned. On the woman's side, he respectfully asked, "Who are you, please?" What is the relationship with Cao Rou? ”
The woman turned to look at her, and asked in a more hurried tone, "So, you really know Cao Rou?" ”
Ye Cheng nodded.
After the woman confirmed that everyone knew Cao Rou, her hurried face softened and smiled slightly.
At this time, Lu Yu walked out, came to Ye Cheng's side, also looked at the woman, and asked with some surprise, "Concubine Ling, ...... are you?"
The woman known as Concubine Ling looked at Yue Yu and said in a soft tone, "General Yue, can you let me see the little excerpt?"
Yue Yu handed the small fold to Concubine Ling.
Concubine Ling flipped through it and saw that the name in the lower left corner of the small fold was a name she was familiar with, and she smiled with satisfaction. Then she closed her small fold and looked at Yue Yu, and said, "General Yue, this is indeed written by the emperor's daughter."
"Why are you so sure?" Yue Yu asked.
Concubine Ling smiled slightly and explained, "Because the name Cao Rou was given to her by the princess when she was a child. The princess didn't like the life in the royal court since she was a child, and she was kind to those poor people, and often proposed to the emperor to be kind to the poor, but the emperor didn't want to listen, and all these things finally caused the princess to leave the ancient kingdom. There has been no news of the princess since leaving, everyone thought she was dead, but they didn't expect ......"
Concubine Ling looked at the small booklet, her eyes gradually moistened, and tears of joy flowed.
It turned out that the women were the concubines who had fled here.
Ye Cheng was very relieved in his heart, and he was glad that Cao Rou still had someone he knew, although he was not related by blood, but this was also a kind of relatives who grew up watching Cao Rou grow up.
But Cao Rou is not the princess's name, which will her real name be?
Ye Cheng looked at Concubine Ling with a puzzled face, and asked, "May I ask Concubine, you said that Cao Rou is not the princess's real name, so what is her real name?" ”
Concubine Ling looked over with some surprise and asked, "The princess didn't tell you?" ”
Ye Cheng still shook his head.
Along the way, Cao Rou didn't say a word about the affairs of the Tiangu Kingdom, and when she entered the forbidden land, she also seemed very resistant, and she didn't want to reveal her identity.
"The princess really still doesn't like the life of the royal family," Concubine Ling smiled slightly, and then said in a serious tone, "The princess's real name is ..... Murong Ruolan. The princess is the youngest daughter of the queen's sister, because she has been gifted and intelligent since she was a child, and she is deeply liked by the emperor and the emperor, so the princess is often taken around. Because of this, the princess could often see the poor people who were bullied, and gradually, she became kind to the poor people......."
Hearing Concubine Ling's words, Ye Cheng showed a relieved expression, but there was also some pain in his heart. He was bitter that Cao Rou had witnessed the torture of the poor as a child.
Cao Rou has never said these things, as if they were sealed in the depths of her memory, and she didn't want to mention them.
But now it's okay, now that Cao Rou is the ancient emperor of heaven, he can use the emperor's power to change these situations.
At this time, after confirming that Xiao Zhizi was an order issued by the orthodox royal family, Lu Yu waved his hand to signal the chain soldier inside the door.
The chainmen walked out, bowed and asked, "What does the general command?" ”
Yue Yu said in a solemn tone, "Go, inform General Fu Ling to assemble the army, and tomorrow the third watch will cook and the fifth watch will send troops to the border."
"Yes," the chainmen slowly exited the mountain road.
Hearing that the troops would be sent tomorrow, Ye Cheng was suddenly a little surprised!
The border affairs are so anxious that they can't be delayed for a moment. It's noon, and there is half a day to get on the road, and if you can set off early, you can get to the border early, which is especially important for the battle situation.
And they still need to go to another place to gather troops, and they can't afford to delay it for half a day.
Ye Cheng turned to face Yue Yu and said anxiously, "General, the border situation is urgent now, why don't you set off now, wait until tomorrow?" ”
Yue Yu looked over, his expression was a little serious, and he was about to speak.
Bai Yingping immediately pressed Ye Cheng's shoulder, stood between Ye Cheng and Yue Yu, and explained, "Ye Cheng, don't worry. It will take time to assemble more than 20,000 troops, and the general has already said that the third watch will cook and the fifth watch will set off, and the army will set off to the border before dawn tomorrow. We can use this time to move on to the next place and find another general."
Zhuziju also came over and echoed, "Eighth brother, don't worry. Let's go to the next place to gather troops first" Then he bowed down to Lu Yu in front of him and said respectfully, "I'm sorry, my eighth brother is not very clear about the march, I offended the general, please forgive me"
"It's okay, I heard you, you still have to gather other troops?" Yue Yu asked in some surprise.
"Well, in addition to summoning the general's 25,000 people, we also need to go to Zhuolan County to gather the 25,000 people of the three brothers of the Lai family. General Bai said that now passing through the southwest border, only these two county towns have troops stationed," Zhu Ziju replied respectfully.
After Zhu Ziju finished speaking, there was no more sound in front of the door.
Yue Yu's face was ugly, as if he was angry.
Ye Cheng looked over, and faintly felt a little strange in his heart, and said secretly, "What's wrong with this general?" Why is the face so ugly? ”
Zhu Ziju also found that the situation was wrong, so he asked, "General, what's wrong with you?" ”
Yue Yu suddenly shook over, his ugly face softened a little, and said, "It's okay, you guys are going to Zhuolan County, then I won't delay you, you should go as soon as possible."
Sensing that something was wrong, Ye Cheng, Zhu Ziju and Bai Yingping glanced at each other.
Ye Cheng wanted to ask clearly, but after Zhu Ziju asked, Yue Yu's expression was enough to show that Yue Yu was unwilling to mention this matter, and he could only give up.
Anyway, this is the army of the Tiangu Kingdom, and it is recommended by Bai Fang to look for it, so there shouldn't be any problems.
"Let's go" Ye Cheng looked at Yue Yu and said lightly.
The crowd slowly retreated towards the mountain road.
When he retreated to Concubine Ling, Ye Cheng said respectfully, "I heard that there are many concubines and eunuchs who came here, and now that Cao Rou is in Tianyun, I think Cao Rou will be very happy to see you, so please go back and see Cao Rou as soon as possible."
Concubine Ling was in a good posture and replied politely, "Thank you, I will go back as soon as possible, and I also want to see what she will look like when she grows up"
