After several corpses were examined, they were unceremoniously thrown aside, while Qu Kun's guards rested and healed.

Lei Hu has already seen from the skills and blades of these people that these people are from the military, these people are well hidden, decisive in their actions, and with a degree of cooperation, they can do it without regard for their lives in the rush, it can be seen that these people are not those ordinary garrisons, but elite soldiers who have really been on the battlefield.

It is a big crime to cut off your head if you instruct a sergeant to do something unrelated to military politics, but there is a simple truth in the world, that is, as long as your status is high enough, it is difficult for those so-called rules to be put on your head.

This person who has the ability to mobilize such a sergeant must be a man of great power.

Although Qu Kun is a newcomer to the court, he is low-key, courteous, and has never had a personal enmity with anyone, and he is deeply loved by His Majesty, the gentleman admires this poor student very much, and the villain does not dare to anger the red man in front of His Majesty.

So the answer has been narrowed down to the point where it's very easy to guess.

But it should be those who stand outside the court, but can sit in the position of ascending to the sky in one step.

Lei Hu's face was gloomy, and he said, "I can't confirm which one it is." ”

"The one who has such means is the one." Qu Kun shook his head.

Jiang Ling listened to the general situation on the side, but it was only an approximation, and it was inconvenient to talk to an outsider like himself depending on the situation.

Qu Kun patted Jiang Ling's shoulder apologetically and said, "You take a rest first, I'll talk to you later." ”

Jiang Ling responded, and stopped talking, if it was a secret matter, it was not suitable to ask more questions with his current identity, at this time, Qu Kun's servant was seriously injured, and as a leader, he naturally wanted to go and condole.

Lei Hu glanced at Jiang Ling, there was a hint of appreciation in his indifferent face, nodded and said, "Good job, I will increase the bounty for you." ”

Jiang Ling hugged his fists and said, "Thank you." ”

Lei Hu, on the other hand, looked at Jiang Ling for a moment, and then seemed to think for a moment before turning around and leaving.

Jiang Ling looked at the back of the Thunder Tiger, and frowned slightly, this Thunder Tiger seemed to be the commander of several guards, and his strength and status were higher than those of the others, but for some reason, Jiang Ling faintly felt that there seemed to be something hidden in this Thunder Tiger.

Judging from the situation that Lei Hu had just made a move, and his attitude towards Qu Kun, he should be regarded as loyal, not a traitor who wanted to put Qu Kun to death, so what's wrong. Jiang Ling couldn't figure it out for a while.

After the bloody battle, Qu Kun ordered everyone to rest on the spot, and to bandage the wounds of several injured guards, especially the one with a broken left arm.

Jiang Ling turned around and returned to a few of his teammates.

"Are you alright?" Sun Xiaolou looked at Jiang Ling with big eyes.

Jiang Ling shook his head and said, "It's okay, in game terms, it's just that my mana is empty, and it's blue in an instant..."

Just now, Jiang Ling was going to try to release the spirit technique, but when he saw the arrows flying, he urged with all his strength in a hurry, and the spiritual energy instantly rushed out of the spiritual network, condensing that vine, but it made Jiang Ling fall into a state similar to overfatigue.

Fortunately, Master Li Qingzhou has nourished his spiritual network for himself, otherwise between this violent output, he may really hurt himself.

"You're so powerful, you know how to do spiritual arts." Huo Liang's eyes on the side flashed, and he couldn't envy it.

Jiang Ling smiled bitterly: "One spiritual skill will consume the spiritual power value, what is there to envy." ”

Huo Liang stretched out his hands and sighed: "That's better than me, I can't even intervene now." ”

Jiang Ling patted him on the shoulder and said, "Practice more, in fact, I didn't expect it to be so smooth when I shot, you have to have confidence in yourself." ”

"Okay, I will." Huo Liang nodded firmly.

"Come on." After speaking, Jiang Ling turned his head to look at Boer and said, "Thanks to your timely discovery." ”

If it hadn't been for Bobber's two successive early detections of the enemy's movements, this battle might have turned out to be what it would have been. Bob is equivalent to the role of a scout, it seems that the hard power is not strong, but the strategic role cannot be replaced.

"So what." Boer raised his chin dissatisfied, and said, "The master who snatched people's heads has made meritorious contributions, and they are all related to Lei Hu." ”

Jiang Ling looked up in surprise and saw Li Jiuxi following behind Lei Hu, leaving everyone and walking forward.

At this time, Qu Kun beckoned Jiang Ling to come over, Jiang Ling stood up and walked towards Qu Kun, and asked directly, "What did Mr. Lei do with him?" ”

Qu Kun also glanced at the backs of the two of them, who had already walked away, and replied, "Lei Hu saw that your friend was in good shape and was not injured, so he took him to the front to explore the way." ”

"Oh." Jiang Ling looked at that side and was a little distracted, and the feeling that something was wrong became more and more obvious in his heart.

Qu Kun didn't notice anything, just looked at Jiang Ling and said, "Little Brother Jiang, I can see that you are a gentleman, and I plan to tell you frankly some things." ”

Because Jiang Ling had just saved Qu Kun's life, he had won a lot of trust from Qu Kun, and Qu Kun was willing to talk to him about some things.

First of all, Jiang Ling needs to confirm the identity of these dead soldiers, if the hostile forces are these people, then ninety percent of the hostile players are with them.

If he can get the relevant information, Jiang Ling can also make the next preparation.

Qu Kun looked at the corpse not far away, and said to Jiang Ling: "You can also see that they are running for me, regardless of their lives, they just want to kill me." ”

Jiang Ling nodded and asked, "Is it your opponent in the court?" ”

Officialdom is complicated, and it is indispensable to deceive and confrontation with parties, and it is not uncommon for this champion to delay the promotion of a minister, or to provoke a colleague to provoke that person to buy a murderer and kill someone. After all, unlike the undercurrent of competition for fame and fortune in the real world, in this world where the strong are respected, many things are so simple and rude.

Qu Kun pondered for a moment, but did not answer the question, but looked at Jiang Ling and asked, "How much do you know about the affairs of the court?" ”

Jiang Ling shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know at all, I'm just guessing." ”

"That's right, you are in a remote area, and you are doing a bloody business, and there is no need to pay attention to the affairs of your family and country. Oh, I don't mean to despise you. Qu Kun said this, it was not that he was arrogant, he just casually told the truth, and then realized that his tone was inappropriate, and hurriedly apologized.

Jiang Ling shook his head and said, "You're right, we have nothing to do with officialdom, and we really haven't thought much about what the height of the temple is." ”

Qu Kun sighed lightly, and then said with a slight solemnity: "Since this is the case, then I can tell you more carefully, and enter your ears with my mouth, but don't let others listen." ”

Hearing this, Jiang Ling's nerves tightened, and it seemed that the protagonist was finally going to talk about some secret issues, and opened the plot of this battlefield copy.

"You all know who I am, right?" Qu Kun glanced at Jiang Ling, who was sitting beside him.

Jiang Ling was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then scratched his head and said, "I knew that you were the champion." ”

Qu Kun was also stunned when he heard this, and then thought that the other party was a mercenary in a remote place, and he might not have seen too much, so he smiled a little embarrassedly and said: "It's me who is a little arrogant, it was three years ago that I won the top prize, and your news is too slow to circulate." To tell you the truth, I am currently the Xuanwen Hall Scholar of our Northern Qin Dynasty. ”

The Xuanwen Hall Bachelor of the Northern Qin Dynasty, although it sounds like he knows that the name and official title of this dynasty are all in the style of ancient China, but Jiang Ling still doesn't know what this Xuanwen Hall Scholar is doing and what his status is, so he has to nod and wait for Qu Kun to continue.

Qu Kun let out a self-deprecating sigh and added, "And it's still the master of the court." ”

Jiang Ling was not surprised to hear this, but his eyes still changed slightly, thinking that this plot is really Chen Shimei's routine?

But seeing Qu Kun's face and eyes, and his kind style, Jiang Ling always felt that he was not such a ruthless person, so he couldn't help but ask, "Then who is the woman you are looking for?" ”

Qu Kun glanced at Jiang Ling, and said with a complicated look: "That's the woman who was my childhood sweetheart, and it was she who stole the dowry that her family saved for her back then, and made me a coil to enter Beijing to take the exam." ”

"This...", the beginning of such a story was no different from what he had guessed, and after hearing it with his own ears, Jiang Ling still felt sorry for the woman.

Qu Kun smiled bitterly: "I think I'm a negative person, after getting fame and fortune, I abandoned my hometown and waited for my wife, how disgusting." ”

Jiang Ling was speechless and waited for the following, he believed that Qu Kun must have a reason to explain this matter at this time.

Qu Kun looked at the sky in the distance and muttered: "But after I was named on the gold list, I immediately sent someone back to my hometown to look for her, and wanted to take her into the capital, but I couldn't find her, it is said that her parents were angry because she stole the dowry money, and they directly married her to a butcher in a neighboring village." Since she has become a human woman, she naturally cannot be sent by me at will. ”

"Who have you entrusted? Didn't you think to go back and see it yourself? Jiang Ling directly raised his own question, if Qu Kun sincerely wanted to find the woman who stole his dowry to make a mistake for him, how could he only send others to help him find it, and believe the words of others?

Qu Kun explained seriously: "I have entrusted a person I trust very much. Without waiting for Jiang Ling to speak, Qu Kun continued: "Of course I want to go home and take a look in person, according to the past practice, after winning the top prize, there is a chance to return to my hometown to visit my relatives, the so-called return to my hometown." However, at that time, due to the old and serious illness of the Xuanwen Palace, His Majesty specially ordered me to be my companion to study for a bachelor's degree, and the edict of the school was not idle for a while. Later, His Majesty even allowed my parents to enter Beijing and gave me a mansion, although I proposed to return to my hometown many times, but His Majesty kept postponing it on the grounds that he was busy with official business. I also asked my parents, and they also said that she was married. ”

Just now, the title of the gold list entered the Xuanwen Hall as a companion, which can be said to be indeed a favor, but the champion has not been allowed to return to his hometown, which is a very abnormal thing.

Jiang Ling was silent for a moment when he heard this, and then said, "Don't you think that there is something wrong with these things put together?" ”
