Chapter 297
Only in the center of the entire camp is the commander's camp tent of the Chinese army.
This is also the reason why as soon as Su Jinyao came to the barracks, Chu Xiang proposed to set up a separate tent for Su Jinyao at the back of the camp.
It seems to be placed behind the camp and will not be directly in front of the battle, which seems to be very safe. But in fact, it is the most underground status, and only when you reach the central tent is the symbol of (shēn).
And now the second prince took Su Jinyao all the way forward, and came directly to the middle of the entire military camp.
Su Jinyao couldn't help but look curiously, until the second prince stopped in front of the largest tent, Su Jinyao was puzzled: "You are the boss here?" ”
"It is now." After the second prince finished speaking, he hugged Su Jinyao into his arms with one hand, and jumped off the horse directly.
And now? Didn't that before?
Su Jinyao had the heart to ask clearly, but saw that the reminiscence of the war horse that followed all the way back also stopped. Still stepping on his hooves, snorting, he walked in front of Cang Qianmiao and rubbed his head on his shoulder.
Su Jinyao was suddenly full of anger, and roared towards the memory: "The forage these days has been fed to you for nothing, this white-eyed wolf." It turns out that you are an undercover agent at all. ”
Cang Qianmiao laughed when he heard this, and said: "It was raised by me since I was a child, I have brushed it countless times, and I take it for a walk almost every day, you think it is a white-eyed wolf, and I think it is still nostalgic (qíng), it is the best horse." ”
After hearing this, Su Jinyao still rolled her eyes and got angry, but she also felt that this horse might be unfaithful to her, but it was still thinking about its old master, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Su Jinyao had no choice but to say indignantly: "What are you arresting me for?" It doesn't just mean to show that your horse still feels like you (qíng). ”
"Of course not. Let's go, let's go in and eat. After Cang Qianmiao finished speaking, he walked into the tent directly with Su Jinyao in his arms.
After walking in, Su Jinyao found that the tent of the Qingfan people was built like this not only for the sake of good looks, but actually had his own reasons.
I saw that the middle of the tower-shaped roof of the double-layer retest was empty, so that the lighting was better and more ventilated. And if it rains, as long as it is not particularly windy, the upper and lower sections can also block the rain. Even if the wind and rain are particularly strong, there is still a circle of curtains that can be lowered to block the hollow position.
This kind of tent is especially important in this hot summer, because as soon as you walk in, you can feel the cool breeze generated by the convection.
Su Jinyao was very stuffy when she was wearing a battle armor, and she was sweating profusely with face protection. Now a little breeze makes her feel very comfortable.
Only then did Cang Qianmiao put Su Jinyao down, and while reaching out to take off the mask on her face, she casually took off her own mask.
Then he went to the side and wrung a wet cloth towel, took it and handed it to Su Jinyao, and said, "Wipe your sweat." The water was clean and I didn't use it. ”
"Where's the cloth towel? Is it clean? Su Jinyao glared at Cang Qianmiao, but before he could answer, she wiped the sweat from her face.
Cang Qianmiao laughed twice and said, "I used the cloth towel." But you don't seem to dislike it. ”
"Disliked, especially disgusted. But I'm just not so pretentious. "Su Jinyao is really not pretentious, she is sweating profusely, there is no need to scream because of a piece of cloth, everything has to be new.
What's more, Su Jinyao felt that now that she was a prisoner, it was very good to have a cloth towel to wipe her sweat. I don't know if I'll be a prisoner in a while, so why bother putting the shelves on the shelf now? Wouldn't it be even more slap in the face to be sent to prison in a while?
Cang Qianmao waited for Su Jinyao to finish wiping, took the cloth towel from her hand, threw water at the basin, and then wiped her face herself.
Su Jinyao looked at the unpretentious movements of the second prince, and saw that he didn't mind the cloth towels and water he used at all, and only felt panicked in her heart. glared at him fiercely and asked, "Say it now, why did you arrest me?" ”
"Anyway, I'll invite you to dinner." After the second prince finished speaking, he also unfolded the cloth towel, dried it, and then went out to pour the used water.
Su Jinyao looked at his series of movements so skillfully, it didn't seem like a pampered second prince, so she said, "The second prince is down?" Why is there no more (shēn) side maid? I remember when you were in the palace, you had a very big pomp, and dozens of maids and chamberlains hugged you all the way. ”
"Well, that's in the Imperial Palace in the Cloud Dome. And here, is the barracks. The second prince didn't deny anything, and went out to say a few words to the people outside, and when he came back, he said, "The food cooked by the chef here may not be to your taste." But I told them not to put too many peppers. ”
Su Jinyao doesn't eat spicy food very much. It's not that you don't eat it at all, it's just that it can be seasoned with mild spicy, but it's not obsessed with spicy food, and you won't eat particularly spicy food. It's rare to remember.
Since Cang Qianyao was talking as if chatting with an old friend, Su Jinyao's attitude eased slightly. I sat down and took a kettle from the table and poured water to drink.
Cang Qianmiao took a small bag from the side and put it on the table next to Su Jinyao, and said, "Let's change this (tào) clothes." With that, he walked out.
Su Jinyao hurriedly chased to the door, grabbed the second prince who had just gone out and said, "Why do you want to change?" I don't change it, you have something to say quickly, and I'll leave when I'm done. ”
"Obedient, very, let's talk about it later." The second prince's tone was like coaxing a child, as if Su Jinyao was deliberately sprinkling his little sister (jiāo) with him.
Su Jinyao was so angry. The second prince raised his arm and moved Su Jinyao to take his hand, then lowered the curtain and said, "I'm guarding outside, you can change it with confidence." ”
Su Jinyao glared fiercely at the curtain, and then pinned the hook inside the curtain. Even if Cang Qianmiao said that he was guarding the door, Su Jinyao didn't bother to believe him.
Walking back to the table, Su Jinyao opened the burden first. I didn't expect it to be a (tào) alien costume inside. The interracial dress in the baggage should be worn by a Qingfan girl, which is a gorgeous lake blue cotton and linen material, with bright red trim and tender yellow embroidery. The dress was short, with a pair of loose butterfly sleeves; Underneath is a pleated skirt that just rises above the knee.
This style is very common in modern times, but in ancient times, it was considered a particularly revealing garment to show a lower leg after wearing it.
Su Jinyao frowned, not because she was shy because she was conservative, but she didn't know why the second prince wanted her to dress like this? Just because (rè)?
After thinking about it, Su Jinyao still took off the battle armor on (shēn) and changed into this (tào) clothes. Since it's nice and cool, there's no reason not to wear it.
And Su Jinyao knew that he didn't do what the second prince wanted, so it was estimated that he wouldn't tell the truth.
I changed my clothes, and there was a pair of soft sheepskin boots under the baggage. The boots just fit around the calves, and the legs look straight and slender when you wear them, which is very beautiful.
"Changed." Su Jinyao lifted the curtain while untying the hook on the curtain. I saw the second prince standing outside the door, still holding a tray in his hand. It seems that someone brought the meal just now, and the second prince took the plate directly.
"Well, (tǐng) good-looking." The second prince looked at Su Jinyao's eyes with amazement, but his tone seemed very ordinary.
Su Jinyao naturally took the tray in his hand and asked, "I just want to know, what are your intentions?" That's why I'm listening to you, and if you can't satisfy me, I don't mind if we tear our faces. ”
The second prince smiled, pouted at Nunu inside, and said, "You can bring it in." By the way, get me a tào in the box, and I'll go change it too. ”
Su Jinyao pursed her lips, how did she feel like a little girl. However, seeing that the second prince's armor was really awkward, he went back and put down the tray and went to the box next to the (chuáng) to dig out a piece of clothing.
The second prince didn't say a word, took it and turned (shēn) and left. Su Jinyao was left alone in the tent, unguarded.
Su Jinyao probed her brain out to see that there was a strange (sāo) smell in the camp of the Qingfan people, which was probably due to the fact that the war pythons and hyenas had raised too much. But you can't hear the hyena barking, and the surroundings are relatively tidy.
Su Jinyao "strolled" to the periphery again, she wanted to see how much freedom the second prince would have if he left himself here so reassuringly.
Unexpectedly, she slipped all the way to the camp gate, and met several groups of Qingfan soldiers on the way, but no Qingfan team came to stop her.
"Could it be that he has another (yīn) plan?" Su Jinyao frowned and thought about it, and then turned (shēn) and went back.
Back to the tent of the second prince, he had already returned. Changed into the costume of a (shēn) Qingfan people, revealing two strong arms, which made him even more fit and handsome.
"Coming back?" The second prince smiled when he saw Su Jinyao lift the curtain and come in, and said, "I knew that you wouldn't be willing to leave like this." ”
"Are you really reassuring me? Or do you feel confident that you know me well? Su Jinyao sat opposite the second prince, reached out and grabbed the chopsticks on the table and took a bite of the dish, and said, "Then what if I leave just now?" ”
"Just go, prove that I don't know you well enough." After the second prince finished speaking, he put a wine glass in front of Su Jinyao and poured wine for her.
The wine is pale amber with a special bamboo aroma. But it's not bamboo leaf green, but an unknown local brew.
Su Jinyao originally liked to drink a little wine, although she hadn't made a big wish to taste all the fine wines in the world, but as long as there was good wine, she would taste it.
Now when I pick up the wine glass, I smell a quiet and mellow bamboo fragrance, and when I take a sip, I only feel soft and sweet, which is really a good wine.
"It's a secret rice wine poured into the bamboo that's still growing. As the bamboo grows and dies, sometimes it can be preserved for several years, sometimes it can only be stored for a few months, it all depends on the vitality of the bamboo. ”
The second prince said as he pushed the wine jug in his hand in front of Su Jinyao and said, "This pot of wine in front of you, this bamboo plant that stores wine has grown for another fifteen years. When it came time to fetch the wine again, a piece of bamboo only got half a pot of wine. You and I have a cup each, and that's all that's left. ”
After Su Jinyao heard this, her eyes widened. I reached out and grabbed the flask in front of me, but when I grabbed it, I found that the flask was extremely light, and there was almost no feeling of the wine shaking.
When I lifted the lid of the pot, I saw that the wine inside had not yet covered the bottom of the pot, and even if it was poured out without a drop, there would be at most half a glass.
Su Jinyao's watch (qíng) was slightly disappointed, looked at the second prince and said, "Are you kidding me?" Or are you hungry for me? I just wanted to ask you why you lied to me, not to ask you for a tasting. ”
"Okay, don't drink it, give me the cup in front of you." After the second prince finished speaking, he reached out and grabbed Su Jinyao's wine glass.
Su Jinyao hurriedly covered it with her hand and said, "Don't grab it yet, I will give it to you to drink." ”
"Haha, Jinyao, this is my wine." The second prince shook his head and smiled, turned to a straight color and said, "Now I invite you to come, I just want you to do me a favor." Or rather, make an equal deal. ”
"Okay, you say." Su Jinyao let go of the wine glass in her hand and said, "It's decided, the wine in front of us is to celebrate the happy cooperation." After all, these two glasses of wine are the absolute (qíng) wine that you and I have broken off with righteousness. ”
The second prince took a breath, nodded, and said, "Jin Yao, I want you to go back to Qingfan with me." ”
"It can't be." Su Jinyao directly refused, and then reached out to get the wine glass. If she drank it all, she and the second prince would have no more follow-ups.
The second prince hurriedly pressed her wrist and said, "Conditional." I give the royal brother a future. ”
Su Jinyao shook her head and said: "His future is his own, you can't hinder him when you are in the palace, and you can't interfere with him now." If you are on Qingfan's side, then you are even more enemies of each other, and your conditions are not valid. ”
The second prince smiled and said, "You listen to me finish speaking." I know that the imperial brother can break my formation, and I set up that formation just to wait for him to break it, and then I will withdraw my troops and give away the victory of this battle, so what? ”
After hearing this, Su Jinyao's eyes widened, and she was a little incredulous.
If it is really as the second prince said, he is willing to stop the war between the two countries, it will not only be Gu Xuebin victorious, but also a lot fewer people.
Whether it is the Qingfan soldiers or the soldiers of the Cloud Dome Country, after all, they are all the people of the world, and it would be a good thing if they could stop the war.
"But why?" Su Jinyao felt that this matter was not simple, and asked: "Although I don't know the details (qíng), I also know that this war was provoked by the Qingfan people crossing the border. Counting it up, our Cloud Dome Kingdom is just defending itself. Now that you have suddenly decided to withdraw your troops, is there any reason, or do you have other plans? Su Jinyao knew very well that she was not the coach of the Cloud Dome Kingdom, and she had no right to decide anything for Gu Xuebin. Therefore, she will carefully consider any request from the second prince.
The second prince Cang Qianmiao was silent for a while. After a while, he raised his head and looked at Su Jinyao, and said, "I want you to return to Qingfan with me for the sake of the healer's (shēn)." ”
"The (shēn) portion of the physician?" Su Jinyao frowned and said, "Doesn't Qingfan have his own doctor?" Who do you ask me to heal? ”
Although Su Jinyao's explanation of the Empress Dowager's Gu poison (qíng) is not known to everyone, I believe that people like Yugui and the second prince are very clear.
So now that the second prince said it and asked Su Jinyao to return to Qingfan as a healer's (shēn), of course, Su Jinyao's first thought was to treat some important person.
The second prince took a sip of wine, and said cautiously and solemnly: "Treat the entire Qingfan royal family." ”
Su Jinyao's expression (qíng) was stunned, and the thought flashed in her heart, and then she shook her head and said, "I don't understand what you mean. ”
"You should understand, Jinyao." The second prince stared at Su Jinyao tightly with a pair of eyes, lowered his voice but said word by word: "I have the royal power of Qingfan, so you have to help me." ”
"You mean, you want to be the king of Qingfan?" Su Jinyao didn't think about this possibility, but she didn't understand why Cang Qianmiao had such ambitions and thoughts.
Moreover, he was obviously competing with Gu Xuebin for the position of prince in the Cloud Dome Kingdom, why did he suddenly shake (shēn) and return to Qingfan to fight for the throne?
Cang Qianmiao nodded slightly, did not answer Su Jinyao, but threw out another question, and said, "Do you remember that I told you that I want to take back what belongs to me?" ”
Su Jinyao nodded. Of course she remembered that it was what the second prince said when he sent her out of the mountain to leave before she was about to go on the road to find Gu Xuebin.
At that time, Su Jinyao chose to believe in the second prince; And now it seems that what he said belonged to him turned out to be Qingfan's throne.
The eyes of the second prince showed a little throbbing, as if he was very uncalm in his heart, but he was trying to suppress it.
After a long time, he continued: "Jin Yao, as for the reason, I can't say more, and now is not the time to say clearly. I only ask you to follow me back to Qingfa as a disciple of the divine doctor (shēn), and just act when the opportunity arises. And I won't interfere much with your actions, I think with your cleverness, you should soon understand what I am going to do (qíng). ”
"So, what about Che?" Su Jinyao still shook her head and said, "If I go back to Qingfan with you, what should he do?" Will you let me go back and explain it to him now? ”
"Jinyao, do you think that is possible?" After the second prince finished speaking, he stood up (shēn) and picked up a token on the desk next to him, then returned to the table and sat down, placing the token in his own hand.
Then he said: "Jin Yao, this token can be used to order the three armies to do the final battle to the death." If you agree to return to Qingfan with me, after the imperial brother breaks the formation, we will declare Qingfan invincible and withdraw our troops immediately. But if you don't agree, then I'll send the token down, even if Qingfan can't win, the imperial brother won't get a bargain, and it's a big deal to lose both in the end. ”
"Wait." Su Jinyao looked at the token in the second prince's hand, and her heart was really mixed.
If she is a former (xìng) child, she is naturally never afraid of the threats of others, and what she wants to do and what she doesn't want to do is according to her own heart.
But now, even if she doesn't have the world in mind, she always feels that she can't bear to be miserable, and Su Jinyao has begun to have some worries.
Thinking of this, Su Jinyao nodded and said, "I (shēn) am a healer, and it is my duty to cure diseases and save people. But I can't go with you without knowing anything, I want to give Che an explanation. ”
"Naturally, I will give an explanation to the imperial brother for you." After the second prince finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass in front of him and said, "Then are we now considered to be nobles and mutually beneficial consensus?" ”
