Chapter Seventy-Seven: I'm Sure
"You...... You're just a deception!! ”
The Taoist on the side was so angry that his teeth itched, and he couldn't wait to immediately draw his sword and cut down this domineering Bai Si medicine.
Yining blocked the Taoist beside her, and she replied coldly, "...... OK. ”
The soldiers retreated.
Bai Ling helped Bai Yi to walk to the gate of the camp, Zheng Mi ordered someone to carry Yikang's stretcher into the tent, and the people got busy.
The brother and sister walked not far from the tent and sat down on a few logs that had fallen to the ground.
"Let me see your arm." Bai Yi whispered.
"It's all right......"
Bai Yi still insisted, "Let me see." ”
Bai Ling couldn't, so he had to reach out.
By the light of the fire not far away, Bai Yi saw that Bai Ling's hands were indeed full of abrasions and redness.
Bai Ling explained softly, "I'm okay, but the prince has a lot of injuries...... So he was still pressed into the tent to disinfect his wounds. ”
Bai Yi showed an incredulous expression.
He digested Bai Ling's words.
"So...... You beat His Royal Highness? ”
"What do you think?" Bai Ling knocked on Bai Yi's head, "Lord Shi and I, I saw Shen Jichuan have a panic attack tonight." ”
Bai Yi was stunned, "...... What seizures? ”
"Panic attacks." Bai Ling pulled down his sleeve and whispered, "When you amplified the artillery battle over there, we heard it on our side. King Gong went back to the palace at that time, and there were only three of us in the tent, but fortunately, Chen Yicong reacted and took a chair to block it for me......
Bai Ling sighed, "Otherwise, I might be lying on a stretcher and talking to you right now." ”
"What," Bai Yi immediately stood up, "I'll go see him—"
"Don't go." Bai Ling grabbed Bai Yi's sleeve, "He doesn't seem to want others to see him embarrassed, wait a minute, wait for the doctor inside to come out." ”
Bai Yi stood still.
He suddenly realized that Chen Yicong in the camp was also at the age of secondary two, just like Yikang.
Bai Yi sighed, he turned his head and looked at Bai Ling, who was still sitting on the log.
"Okay, let's not mention the prince for now, let's talk about you," Bai Yi crossed his hands on his hips, "You seem to have made a big news tonight?" ”
Bai Ling propped his face with one hand and showed an intriguing smile, "Each other." ”
"So what the hell is going on in this homeless camp?" Bai Yi asked, "Why did the soldiers here suddenly listen to you?" ”
"That's a long story...... "Bai Ling blinked, "where to start?" ”
What is happening in the camp today may never go down in history.
However, for Bai Ling, for Chen Yicong, and even for Prince Gong, it was nothing less than a stormy wave.
As Bai Ling and Zheng Mi had speculated before, the final fate of this camp containing more than 1,000 displaced people was direct execution.
The current situation is too sensitive, and the dark tide among the displaced people is surging, and it coincides with such a dangerous astrological sign.
The Empress Dowager died, and the emperor lost his protection...... Emperor Jianxi seems to have made up his mind to let Shen Jichuan directly crush all potential Mars.
It is better to kill three thousand by mistake than to condone one.
When Zheng Mi brought the news to Prince Gong, he immediately sent someone to the cabinet to send Sun Beiji and Zhang Shouzhong to discuss countermeasures.
Just this one move made Bai Ling's good impression of Prince Gong instantly full.
Although this prince seems to be a little unintelligent, among all the adult nobles in the Great Zhou, he is almost the only one who will worry about the lives of civilians in the first place.
Although, after Zhang Shouzhong pointed out that there might be a risk of causing Emperor Jianxi's displeasure, King Gong almost immediately became hesitant and began to look ahead and shirk his responsibilities, but under the persuasion of Sun, Zhang, and Shizi, he still took advantage of the twilight and set off into the palace.
He brought a promise from Bai Ling - as long as he waited for dawn the next day, Bai Ling would have a way to find those golden spies from more than a thousand people.
At this moment, Sun Beiji and Zhang Shouzhong didn't even have time to eat dinner, so they went to the cabinet to watch the night together - in this way, if life changes in the palace, they can also respond in time.
After that, Prince Gong did not return, but Yuan Zhen sent a secret letter from Emperor Jianxi.
With the secret letter came half of the Left Guard Battalion.
From now on, until three o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow, the strength of the camp, including the Left Guard Battalion, will be at Bai Ling's disposal, but if Bai Ling does not fulfill her promise after three o'clock in the afternoon, the Left Guard Battalion will directly cut off Bai Ling's head and return to his life.
Of course, Shen Jichuan will also directly harvest the lives of all the suspected outcasts in this camp at that time.
Hearing this, Bai Yi gasped, "You are also bold......"
Bai Ling felt that this sentence was a little familiar for a while, as if someone had said this to him before.
"Don't worry, I'm seven or eight percent sure." Bai Ling said softly, "You don't have to wait for three o'clock in the afternoon, just wait for tomorrow to dawn." ”
Not far away, in the moonlight, a mother held her little child outside the tent and gently coaxed her, and the torches outside the tent stretched her figure long, and she walked and stopped, humming an out-of-tune song in her mouth.
"It's like that's it before the war......" Bai Ling looked at the young mother not far away and muttered softly, "When the war starts, how will life be." ”
……
Zheng Mi got tonight's confession from Yikang.
All of a sudden, all the things that happened in the past were connected, and all the mysteries had answers.
It's just that the malice behind this also makes Zheng Mi frightened.
At this moment, can he say that those victims who finally died in the yamen were innocent?
But if the person who was attacked was himself, what choice would he make at that moment?
Zheng Mi was not sure.
At this time, news came from the yamen, and all the displaced people in the tower in the south of the city were arrested—most of them died of poison immediately, and only one young descendant still had a breath.
It was almost time for him to go back with Yikang's confession for a final interrogation.
Before leaving, he bowed to the young Yikang in awe, "The county lord is righteous." ”
Yikang shook her head—the sudden rise to a personality level of praise made her a little uncomfortable. Compared with the so-called big words such as righteousness and goodness, she still seems to like to be a little more rude and willful.
Zheng Mi turned to the county lord of Yining again—although Bai Ling showed no mercy to her tonight, he still had to sell face. He just sent someone to set up a small tent, and Yi Ning could take Yi Kang to rest alone in that small tent tonight.
Yining didn't thank you, just nodded coldly.
Zheng Mi left, and the tent was quiet again, and in the silence, Yikang suddenly felt a little anticipation in his heart.
She glanced at her sister who was sitting not far away several times.
Tonight, whether it was Bai Yi or Zheng Mi, they all gave unhesitant praise for her behavior.
So...... What about my sister who is always very strict......?
"Dust." Yining suddenly shouted.
The Taoist who kicked Bai Yi in the morning opened the curtain and walked in.
"You take Yikang with you," Yining stood up, her voice carrying the usual indifference, "It's late, let's rest first." ”
With that, Yining stepped straight out of the camp and didn't look back once.
