034, on the eve of the Great War
Yin Feng looked around, and when he saw that the two were in the corner, he immediately opened the conversation box and learned the conversation between Jia Yang and Huo Mingyou just now.
Huo Yunqian frowned slightly, and couldn't help but think of what he heard those passers-by say in the restaurant in Kaizhou.
- "The imperial court is simply embarrassing General Xiao Huo this time...... gave him a veteran who had never made meritorious service to the marquis, and gave him several former generals from the northern frontier, and I don't know what kind of strange transfer of troops this is......"
And the third brother also knew that there were spies from Northern Xinjiang around him, it seemed that these two people seemed to be extremely suspicious, otherwise the third brother would not treat the two seniors with such an unkind attitude if he respected the old and loved the young so much.
So, which one is this spy?
Thinking that it was this spy who killed the third brother in his previous life, the hatred in Huo Yunqian's heart burned like a flame.
Yin Feng finished his words by himself, but he didn't hear Huo Yunqian's response, and when he looked at her expression again, he was startled.
Could it be that this third lady ...... Do you have a grudge against these two people?

Outside the Sifang City, the tributaries of the Moran River flow quietly, and the narrowest part of the water is even less than two zhang, and the depth is no more than four feet.
On the north bank across the river, the Northern Frontier Army, led by the Lewa tribe, was stationed here.
Northern Xinjiang is mostly nomads, good at conquest, and is not good enough at siege, and Jing Dynasty has fought a few draws after suffering from the inability to break through, seeing that the Sifang City actually hung up the war-free card, but also happy to temporarily press the army to discuss countermeasures.
In the camp of the Lewa army, in the middle of the big tent sat a bare-chested sturdy man, with three thin braids hanging down on the left and right sides, and a headband made of gold silk on his head, frowning under the lamp and staring at the map, it was the leader of Leva, Ogg.
Suddenly, there was a series of footsteps outside the door, and someone reported outside the tent: "Leader of Qiyu, the patriarch of the Dongli Clan, Wu Liangha, has something to see you." ”
Auge raised his head, suspicion flashed in his eyes, and he said slowly: "Let him in." ”
The curtain was lifted, and a young man of about thirty years of age walked in, with his arms folded in front of him, and saluted, "Good evening, great chief." ”
Og didn't move, still sitting cross-legged at the low table and looking coldly at the young man opposite, "What's the matter with coming here so late?" ”
Speaking of which, he really hated this man, and if it weren't for the need for the strength of Yu Li, he would never have said half a word to Uliang Hado.
Not only because, after this kid took over Dongli, he quickly developed Dongli into the second largest tribe in northern Xinjiang, and his reputation and power were close to Leva;
What's even more annoying is that this kid is about the same age as him, and he himself looks like he's in his early forties, but this kid's little white face looks more than ten years younger than him!
Wu Liangha withdrew his hand and sat in front of Og, as if he didn't hear the disgust in Og's voice, and said respectfully: "The spies just came to report that the family of the boss of the Sifang City has entered the city. ”
"Oh? Death is still this kind of idleness? Og casually poured a bowl of wine and took a slow sip.
Uryanha paused and continued, "Not only that, but I heard that this family member is good at the art of mechanism, and now he is making strange things in the city, and I think he wants to use them against us. ”
Og's hand holding the wine bowl was fixed in the air, and he suddenly laughed: "Yes, you want to defeat us with a trap?" I don't know if I want to dig tunnels all night, dig traps, set traps, and set traps, or plan to get a burst of crossbow arrows? Or do you throw red-hot coals at our tent with a trebuchet? ”
Uliangha lowered her head slightly, and the high bridge of her nose cast a shadow in the light of the oil lamp.
He didn't answer, and Og's laughter sounded awkward, and gradually stopped.
Og took a sip of the wine bowl and stared at the map on the table, "Listen to me - I don't care what bullshit they make, and when they take off the war-free card, I want Huo Mingyou to die in the Moran River Valley like his father and brother!" ”
"Yes." Uliangha got up and stepped back lightly.

It was another night of sleeping in Jiang's workshop, and when the sky was bright, Huo Yunqian felt that someone had been shaking her.
When he opened his eyes, he was met by Huo Mingyou's anxious eyes, "Third sister, why are you sleeping here?" How do I explain to my mother when I fall asleep? ”
Huo Yun patted his cheek with a light smile, and pointed to the red fox cloak covered on his body, "Yin Feng said that he specially went to you to get it, and it is not cold at all." If I withdraw first, who will want to devote myself to work? ”
Huo Mingyou supported his forehead, Yin Feng, this kid is getting more and more nonsense, it seems that he wants to find an opportunity to beat him well.
Although he found someone who could pull him out to complain, Huo Mingyou still felt sorry for his sister's pale little face, and wrapped her around her with a cloak, "It's still early, if your body collapses, who else can preside over the creation of these mechanisms?" ”
Huo Yunqian smiled, leaning on the third brother's arms.
It's good to have a brother who hurts, why didn't she cherish it so much in her previous life, but felt that the third brother was an annoying essence of a mother-in-law and mother-in-law?
Huo Mingyou took her back to the house, and she smelled a pungent aroma in front of her, and it turned out that breakfast was ready.
The two sat opposite each other, and Huo Mingyou gave her a pair of chopsticks, "Now it's going to be a little bit, don't be foolish, go back to the capital, the third brother, please go to Chunmanlou to eat all-you-can-eat." ”
Huo Yunqian laughed out loud, and munched on the vegetable buns and pickled porridge in a good mood.
After eating breakfast, Huo Mingyou remembered, and quickly called someone to come in to fetch water to wipe her teeth and wash her face.
Huo Yunqian sent the pro-soldiers who delivered the water down, wiped his face with a wet towel, and came to Huo Mingyou's side, "Third brother, don't you want to know, who is the Northern Xinjiang spy next to you?" ”
Huo Mingyou's hand holding the teacup trembled, and he almost poured the tea on his body.
He stared at his little sister with wide eyes, and an inexplicable excitement surged in his chest, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only look at his little sister and smirk, "Ah Qian, you are really ......"
"It's really grown, right? I know. Huo Yunqian interrupted his emotion.
She washed up quickly, came to Huo Mingyou and sat down, "I can be sure that he has already revealed my entry into the city to the Lewa people on the other side of the river." ”
Huo Mingyou came back to his senses and smiled helplessly, "I can naturally think of this." But even so, what do you want to do to lure him out? ”
The corners of Huo Yun's shallow lips curled, "Since I'm here to make a mechanism, I have to use the mechanism to invite you into the urn." ”
Such a confident little girl, although she is also full of energy, is completely different from the flying and domineering in the past, and it is a little difficult to take your eyes off.
Huo Mingyou looked at her with satisfaction, and a thought popped up in his heart for no reason: Such a little sister, I don't know which kid will be cheaper in the future?
The entire military camp already knew that the sister of the commander Xiao Wei Guogong had arrived in the city, and she had brought a magical "ox cart", and was even designing new weapons, which would definitely kill the people of Northern Xinjiang without leaving a single piece of armor!
But Xiao Wei Guogong kept it a tight secret, and did not allow the craftsmen to leave the workshop at will before completion, let alone anyone other than their brother and sister and Captain Yin to enter the workshop.
