Chapter 45: Doubt and Faith

A wisp of cold wind penetrated into the tent, and the dim light of the fire scurried like a red snake, and the crackling sound in the brazier suddenly broke out.

Mi Zhu's wrinkled face, which was crawling like the bark of an old tree, and the expression surging at the moment was more like a kind of pride like a god, as if Zhao Yun's answers were all in his expectations.

In the stagnant silence, Mi Zhu used a dry cough to hide the somewhat awkward and cold atmosphere. And Zhao Yun's expression was as calm as water, and he quietly drank a cup of warm tea.

"What did Zilong see at that time?" Mi Zhu spoke again.

Zhao Yun replied calmly: "At that time, I was looking around for the master mother and A Dou Gongzi, and when I found a dilapidated house, I happened to see the eldest son holding A Dou in his arms, and he was about to tear down an earthen wall and want to bury the master mother. When I tried the housewife, there was no breath at all. I asked the eldest prince what was going on, and the result was what you and I knew. ”

Mi Zhu's breathing became heavier, his chest rose and fell more violently, and his eyes flashed with a kind of indignation, which was the excitement and anger that he thought he had solved the truth.

"In this way, everything is what Ah Feng said, how did the little sister die, Zilong, you don't know." Mi Zhu's question obviously has an attempt to imply inducement.

Zhao Yun's sword eyebrows condensed slightly, and his blade-like gaze shot directly at Mi Zhu: "The eldest prince is the eldest son of the lord, doesn't what he said count?" ”

Mi Zhu was stunned for a moment, and said: "Having said that, well, Ah Feng is not the lord's after all...... Ahem...... Zilong, you know what I mean. ”

"The eldest prince is the son of the lord before the ancestors of the Han family, according to the official etiquette, no matter what his background is, he now has the blood of the Han royal family, forgive Yun is foolish, I really don't understand what Zizhong means."

Zhao Yun's words were sonorous, his eyes were as sharp as a blade, and he only said that Mi Zhu was speechless. As Zhao Yun said, Liu Feng is Liu Bei's eldest son in legal theory, and Mi Zhu's use of Fang Cai's vision as the basis for judging authenticity is itself an unreasonableness.

Zilong said yes. However, the so-called human heart is unpredictable, Ah Feng is still a child after all, he has been adopted by the lord for less than a year, and he still lacks correct teaching, if he is confused by the demon for a while, and does something wrong, it may not be impossible. ”

Mi Zhu's hint couldn't be clearer, he was almost explicitly referring to Liu Feng's "fake son", because he was afraid of Adou's parent, and took advantage of the chaos in Nagasaka to try to murder his mother and younger brother.

Zhao Yun's blade-like gaze suddenly soared, and he said: "I don't care what the eldest prince says, I only saw that on the Changsaka slope, in order to save his younger brother who fell from the horse, he forgot his life and forgot to die, and did not hesitate to fall into the encirclement of the tiger and leopard riding." I think all this that I have seen with my own eyes is enough to support the explanation of the eldest prince. ”

What Zhao Yun said was the reason why he believed in Liu Feng.

Mi Zhu sneered: "That's true, but Zilong don't forget, you were present at the time, Adou fell to the ground, and Ah Feng dared to ignore it?" ”

Perhaps stimulated by his sister's death, or out of instinct for the kind of city government conspiracy, Mi Zhu at this moment seems to be more and more inclined to suspect Liu Feng.

At this point, Zhao Yun knew that it was useless to say more, and his cold gaze suddenly dispersed like the wind, replaced by a faint smile: "Everything needs to be investigated for evidence, I have told the truth what I have seen, as for Zizhong, what you think, then it is none of my business Zhao Yun." ”

Through Zhao Yun's mouth, Mi Zhu was more convinced of his suspicions, but he hoped that Zhao Yun could be the best witness to his suspicions, and Zhao Yun's reaction in front of him made him a little disappointed.

Hearing Zhao Yun's words, Mi Zhu understood that no matter how much he said it, the coldness on his face eased down, and said with a smile: "Zilong, don't be careful, I am also dedicated to thinking about the lord." However, I hope that one day in the future, when the lord asks about this, Zilong's answer will still be the same as today. ”

Zhao Yun said lightly: "What I see, what I say is what I say, Zizhong should understand." ”

"Hehe, this is natural. It's getting late, so I won't bother Zilong and say goodbye. Mi Zhu said goodbye.

Zhao Yun sent him to the door of the tent, and watched the short and thin figure that seemed to be weak and unable to help the wind, gradually disappearing into the night.

He looked up at the sky, and at some point, the night sky was covered with a gray curtain, and the bright and white moon had been reduced to a gloomy round spot.

The cold wind was blowing in his face, and he felt a hint of the chill of winter coming. After a moment of silence, he suddenly shouted, "Come on, prepare a horse for me." ”

…………

West of Xiakou City, Water Camp.

"The eldest prince, it is not easy to train into elite soldiers, every elite soldier is a valuable asset, so we must equip them with the best armor, the sharpest weapons, and give them good food and drink, these basic things, I don't know if the eldest prince can guarantee them."

After two rounds of testing, Ma Jian brushed Liu Qi's 500 elite soldiers to only 200, and now, he is asking for food, drink and equipment for these 200 people.

In this era of cold weapons, copper and iron are valuable strategic resources, and the production of armor and weapons is completely pure craftsmanship, and excellent armor and weapons are of high quality regardless of the materials consumed, and the craftsmen required must be of the highest quality, plus the time consumed, the price can be imagined.

However, in order to train an elite soldier who is loyal to himself and can become relied on at critical moments, it is worth the amount of money.

"I can't afford to raise 2,000 elite soldiers, 200 people are still no problem, I will find a way to solve what you say."

Liu Feng replied very happily, thinking of his brother Liu Qi in his mind, it seems that Ma Yan's needs have to be opened to this generous brother again.

Liu Feng's cheerfulness made Ma Jian feel very satisfied, and nodded and said, "Everything is ready, what is needed now is time." But I don't know when the eldest prince plans to set off. ”

"I just received the news today, Wu Ren has fought Cao Jun for the first time in Chibi, without further ado, I want to leave for Lushan tomorrow."

Ma Tan pondered for a moment: "Entering Lushan is just a feint, after we camp there, we can also train soldiers." In that case, I'll go back and prepare early. ”

After tossing for a long time, the night was dark at this time, Liu Feng also felt tired, and after sending Ma Tan away, he was ready to go to bed in wide clothes, and when he was about to relieve the night, the soldiers outside the tent suddenly came to report, saying that Zhao Yun came to visit.

On this big night, why did Zhao Yun suddenly visit?

Although some people have not seen their own "martial arts" teacher, they do miss it a little, but for some reason, in addition to the surprise, Liu Feng suddenly had an inexplicable sense of foreboding in his heart.

didn't have time to think about it, Liu Feng hurriedly prepared to go out to greet him, and when they just walked together, Zhao Yun had already strode in, and there was a faint hint of melancholy on his heroic face.

Zhao Yun has always been Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and did not change color, and he had never been seen frowning among the ten thousand troops on Changbanpo, but now that it was late at night, there would be a melancholy between his eyebrows?

Liu Feng's premonition was even stronger, but on the surface, he looked calm, and said with a smile: "Uncle Yun, what kind of wind blew you here, and you came to see me so late." ”

Zhao Yun took a deep breath: "Eldest prince, I came to disturb me so late, I have a very important thing to tell you. ”
