After inspecting the camp like this, it was time for dinner. Unlike the soldiers and horses of the Central Plains, the Youyan Dao army carried a large number of cattle and sheep with the army to eat meat, supplemented by the purchase of rice, noodles and vegetables nearby, and the logistical pressure was much less than that of other armies. Zheng Miaoyi's two brothers both learned from the style of King Youyan who loved soldiers like sons, and they were unwilling to enjoy food alone in their own tents, and ate together with their soldiers. After the meal, Yizhi inspected the camp again, and then returned to the account to rest.

Qiu Yizhi's tent is only more than a zhang in diameter, which is not much larger than that of ordinary soldiers, but fortunately, it is lived alone, so an extra set of tables and chairs can be placed in the tent outside the marching bed.

Yizhi didn't have half a bit of sleep, ordered someone to light an oil lamp, leaned on the table and pondered: I didn't expect the march and combat to be so exquisite, he was quite appreciated by the King of Youyan after setting a strange plan in the battle of Mantou Mountain five years ago, and in the past few years, whenever he sent troops to burn grass or exterminate bandits, he was always taken to learn military affairs. But looking at it now, if he leads the troops to fight with Cui Nanwei alone, I am afraid that he will become a prisoner of the ranks tonight. However, the King of Youyan fights on weekdays, and he is not distracted by such trivial matters, and he relies on these two famous generals under his command to take care of him. It seems that if he is lucky enough to be able to lead the troops to fight in the future, he must recruit a few henchmen and generals, otherwise how can he support his daily energy?

So he took the bamboo stick and dialed the wick, and continued to think: But where are the talents in the world? The people he has seen in his life, in addition to those who are already in the Youyan Wang, Cai Wenchou, the strategist in the account of Dali Khan, and the warrior who follows Yiran are also outstanding people, but these two people are also masters of the people, how can they be easily encircled? Thinking of this, and remembering that when he went on the expedition, why didn't he come to see him off? Is it a militaristic affair that is inconvenient for foreign races to participate? Or is he dissatisfied with himself when he knows about his private meeting with the cult saint? But I remembered that Wen Lingjiao had said that she had escaped from Guangyang because of herself, but she had never met again in her private mansion, so I don't know how to fulfill this statement? I wonder if Ruishou takes care of family affairs properly? If you haven't seen your master for a long time, will you feel uneasy?

Thinking about it, Yizhi gradually settled down, and didn't stir up even if the wick gradually sank into the oil. I saw that the bean-sized fire was burning weakly, and in Qiu Yi's eyes, it turned into a halo of light, and gradually spread. Suddenly, the wick shook his spirit again, and with a vigorous leap brought up a wisp of green smoke, and the flame suddenly grew a third taller, as if he did not want his life to disappear in the night. Yizhi smiled, picked up the bamboo skewer again, and wanted to fulfill the wish of the wick like a savior.

At this time, a herald came to report: "In the warm tent, there is a sergeant dispute, and His Royal Highness needs to be asked to make a decision." ”

Military discipline is the right responsibility under the orders of King Youyan, Yizhi didn't dare to delay for half a minute, so he hurriedly got up and carried his sword, and walked out of the tent with the herald. The so-called warm tent is nothing but a place where the prostitutes are located. Camp prostitutes have existed in ancient times, and they are strong for the sergeants, and if there is nowhere to vent, they are often demoralized, and they are prone to chaos for a long time, so they have been standing in the army since ancient times and cited as a regular practice. Later, the king of Youyan was benevolent and righteous, thinking that the prisoners, female prisoners, and helpless widows were all good families, and could not bear to take away their will, so he selected and hired prostitutes in Guangyang City to serve with the army, and gave more silver taels, but they were also safe. According to the military discipline of Youyan, one of the 50 officers and soldiers in the battalion can enter the warm tent every day for recreation, and the meritorious people after the war are not among them.

Yizhi hurried a few steps, and saw dozens or hundreds of soldiers around a small round tent from a distance, although they didn't dare to make a loud noise, they didn't know what to do there. Seeing this, Yi Zhi rebuked loudly: "There are rules for everything in the army, and you are in a mess, I don't know what kind of system it will become?" So what is the matter, can the steward non-commissioned officer come forward to report? ”

When the army saw that it was His Royal Highness the Prince, they hurriedly bowed down in silence, but one of the hundred households stepped forward and said, "The villain Shi Wei is in charge of the affairs of warm accounts." It is unheard of that there are prostitutes who refuse to accept customers. Please also ask Your Highness to decide. ”

Since childhood, Yizhi hated bullying women and children, waved his hand and said: "Women refuse to accept customers for their own reasons, how can you use force?" And caused trouble because of this, don't you know the word decency? ”

Shi Wei paused again and said, "Your Highness is benevolent. It's just that the army has its own rules, and if the soldiers who are on their turn today don't succeed, they will have to wait for another two months, and the villain really can't explain it. Besides, these two women hurt people with daggers, and it is not a trivial matter for the villain to think about it, I am afraid that he has violated military discipline, so I also ask His Royal Highness to make a decision, so as not to set a precedent and make it difficult for the villain. ”

Yizhi glanced at Shi Wei who was lying on the ground, and saw that he looked mediocre, with a big mole on his right cheek, and a few strange hairs growing on it. You know so much, it's a pity to be a turtle here. Get up, lead the way, and let me understand. ”

Shi Wei immediately got up and said with a smile: "It's not that the villain wants to do this leather business. It's just that this warm tent has always been the most likely to be disputed, and the villain has always done things fairly, and this duty is still ordered by His Royal Highness the eldest prince, and he also rewarded the villain with the position of a hundred households. It's just that...... It's just that this reputation is really not good. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to open the curtain and let Yizhi into the warm tent.

Who knew that when he entered the account, he was surprised. I saw that the two women in the tent were none other than Wen Lingjiao, the holy daughter of the Tianzun Sect, and her tricky maid. Qiu Yi was busy looking around at the warm tent, and there was no one else among them, only Shi Wei stood behind him with a strange smile on his face.

Qiu Yizhi hurriedly sent Shi Wei out of the account, and then said: "It turned out that the escape from Guangyang was indeed fulfilled in the lower body. Yi Zhi smiled and said, "I don't think that the girl would surrender her identity so much and be stuck in filth, can she actually regard the woman's name as nothing?" ”

Wen Lingjiao sat on the bed and didn't answer, and instructed the maid: "He'er, Qiu Gongzi is not a human anymore, why don't you put away the treasure knife and make tea and sit down?" ”

Qiu Yizhi only then knew the name of this maid, saw her squat slightly, put a dagger in her sleeve, took two steps and moved a Mazha to put it in front of her, and took out a bowl of tea from the teapot, sent it to her own hand, and said with a mischievous smile: "This place is simple, there is no dragon well before the rain, and I ask the prince to forgive me." ”

Qiu Yizhi didn't have the heart to drink tea, didn't take the tea bowl in He'er's hand, stood and asked reluctantly: "Although the identity of this camp prostitute is pretended, but after all, there are many people in the army, and what is the face of the girl who is rumored to stand in the world?" ”

Wen Lingjiao smiled slightly: "It turns out that the son is so pitiful and cherishes the jade, and the little woman has thanked her." It's just that this name is just a corrupt Confucian opinion, I don't know how many people are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but their stomachs are full of male thieves and female prostitutes. Moreover, our Holy Sect has never attached great importance to this, and the eldest disciple of our former master married a prostitute as his wife and devoted himself to assisting her husband in preaching, and she was the first holy woman of our Holy Sect. ”

Qiu Yizhi is such a meticulous person, in just a few words, he knows that when he preaches the Tianzun Sect, he does not attach importance to the identity of believers, and I am afraid that it has spread widely among the lower nine streams, but the scholars do not know about general affairs and do not know. If you listen to the reason, I am afraid that it will cause a catastrophe over time, and you must notify the King of Youyan in time and carefully screen it in Guangyang City to avoid further incidents.

Wen Lingjiao didn't expect Qiu Yi to have such a thought in an instant, seeing that he was silent, she continued: "Since the little girl is committed to the child's camp, I hope that the son can fulfill it and give me two bad horses, so that the little girl can escape." ”

Yizhi thought for a while, and then sighed and said, "That's it." If you let the girl go once, you might as well sell the girl's face again. I hope that the girl will go here, so that she can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and change her evil and return to the right! ”

Wen Lingjiao listened and said with a smile: "The son is really kind, and the little girl is finally not mistaken." Great grace is not thanks, farewell today, he will meet one day......" said, got up and walked to Yizhi, took out a bronze mirror from his sleeve, and said, "This mirror is a personal token of the little woman. ”

Yizhi stretched out his hand to take the bronze mirror with body temperature, pinched it in his hand, seemed to have something to say, but he was speechless, walked out of the warm tent, and said to Shi Wei who was waiting outside the tent: "You go and choose two horses, give them to the two young ladies in this tent, and let them go out of the camp!" ”

Shi Wei hurriedly nodded yes, and then asked, "I don't know how to explain it to the same soldiers?" Please also ask Your Highness to make it clear. ”

"This is simple, let's just say that these two girls were originally the daughters of criminal officials and were sold into the Qinglou, so they fell to this. According to the military discipline of King Youyan, such women from good families should not be used as prostitutes, so they were released from the military camp to fend for themselves. Before Shi Wei finished singing the promise, Yizhi commanded in a low voice, "You choose a good horse, secretly follow the two of them, and see where they settle." I see that you are clever, you will do this matter alone, once the matter is ascertained, you will report it quickly, there can be no delay for a moment, don't startle the snake, I have my own reward! Shi Wei nodded again and again, and hurriedly arranged it.

It turned out that Qiu Yizhi thought of these two weak women early in the morning, galloping in the chaos of the army in the middle of the night, how could they travel far away, the rudder of the Tianzun Sect must be nearby, and when the time comes, it will be a great achievement to find out the place and eradicate it in one fell swoop. Yizhi slowly walked back to his camp tent with a full stomach, and after waiting for half an hour, he heard Shi Wei report that the second daughter was living in a small village thirty miles south of Daying.

Yi thought that the big thing had been decided, so he hurriedly ordered his three hundred personal soldiers, and did not inform Zheng Miao and Cui Nanwei to protect the two generals, and personally led the team to follow Shi Wei and galloped straight to the south of the camp. After galloping for half an hour, he saw a small village in front of him, so he sent a few scouts to investigate. These scouts were so capable, they didn't come back and forth in a moment: the well in this village was dry and cold, and it was already empty.

Qiu Yi couldn't make a plan, and when he was at a loss, he saw countless torches lit around, and vaguely saw a sound of shouting and killing, so he gathered his men and horses, ordered all the sabers to be unsheathed, the arrows were wound, the fire torches and candles were extinguished, and slowly retreated towards the camp by night.

The enemy army did not chase after him, and Yizhi led the army into the camp calmly, but he was full of grievances and had no sleep. Thinking that this movement was too big, he could no longer hide it from the eyes and ears of King Youyan, and he had to report it as soon as possible. So he took the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and wrote down today's events and the conversation with Wen Lingjiao in Guangyang City truthfully, and sent people to the Youyan Mansion in an expedited manner for 800 miles in the starry night.

I didn't sleep that night, and the next day I had to march to Bianzhou City as planned. Yizhi walked away in a drowsy state, and when the army was camped, Zheng Rong's reply had arrived. Yizhi took it, spread the paper to read, and saw that King Youyan was about to scold himself at the beginning: saying that he was so bold and reckless, he would definitely break into a monstrous disaster in the future, or it would affect his father, brothers, and relatives and friends, if he did this again in the future, he would not have to wait for the court to discuss the crime, Zheng Rong would invite Shang Fang's sword to kill his relatives with righteousness, and he would sword this lawless thief. As for this matter, if the imperial court investigates it, Youyan Wangfu will naturally cover up the past, but it will not be an example. Yizhi read it and put his mind at ease, but he read it carefully, but he was kind and tempting, asking him to ask Wei Hu Cui Nan for more advice on everything, and discuss more with his brother Zheng Miao, so that he must not act without authorization in the future.

At this point, a stone in the heart of Yi finally fell to the ground, and the exhaustion of two days came to my brain, and after a hurried dinner, I fell into a deep sleep.
