Chapter 135: There is a new female monkey in the palace
After taking care of everything, it was already dark again.
The season has entered early summer, and the daylight hours are relatively long, and people who have been busy all day no longer want to go out after the night has sunk.
Eating a meal at home in peace, followed by an early wash, is the life of most people.
What's more, it's still a troubled era, and if you have nothing to do to wander around the street, it's likely that you'll lose your little life while strolling, so it's better to hide at home and live in peace.
But for the people in the barracks, this is the beginning of the day.
Jincheng is a city facing the sea on three sides, standing on the pier during the day, looking far away, the line of sight is almost to see the horizon.
If you add telescopes and the like, you can see even further.
And the speed of ships in this era is still relatively slow, so if Anritsu really sends troops, even if the people on the shore are unprepared, they can urgently prepare troops and generals before they arrive.
But at night it is different, there is nothing to see on the sea at night, and there are waves as cover, so it is the best time to attack.
Because of this, several of Anritsu's sneak attacks were at night.
This invisibly conveyed to the people the news that the enemy would come at night, and it was very lethal, so they turned the time upside down, and they could nap during the day, but they had to be energetic at night.
Of course, Zhuang Siyan knows better, so she will go out for a walk from time to time at night to see if there is anything missing.
It's just that today, after Ling Tiancheng came back from outside, he didn't let her go out, saying that he was giving him the task to do.
Zhuang Siyan blinked his eyes and said: "Don't make trouble, I'm tired and can't die, besides, even if I really die, the Dasheng Dynasty is still the Dasheng Dynasty, but you are different, if you dare to do something, then I won't become a sinner through the ages?" ”
Ling Tiancheng frowned and glared at her: "Don't say that." ”
Zhuang Siyan didn't care, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Come on, or the two of us will go together." ”
Ling Tiancheng really couldn't force her to stay, and in the end, the two of them went out together.
At this time, walking in the sea breeze outside Jincheng, you can see the military camp stationed nearby and covered from a distance, and there are soldiers patrolling from time to time walking by.
When they saw Zhuang Siyan, they would all stop and salute, just like when they met Ling Tiancheng in the palace.
Zhuang Siyan was somewhat proud, enjoying more popular treatment than this man, bouncing all the way, and from time to time he would climb onto Ling Tiancheng's body.
The two of them said they were patrolling the camp, but it was no different from walking.
Ling Tiancheng also slowly relaxed, trying to match her rhythm, and would say a word or two from time to time, all about Jincheng.
After a round from each pier, it was almost half of the night.
Zhuang Siyan suddenly approached him and asked, "Is there a new female monkey in the palace again?" ”
Ling Tiancheng was stunned, he didn't understand the meaning of her words for a while, and looked straight at her.
"Monkeys? Why do you want monkeys in the palace? ”
Zhuang Siyan: "Because of you!" ”
"Me? What do I have to do with monkeys? ”
There is too much modern humor in this way, Ling Tiancheng doesn't understand it, Zhuang Siyan was originally teasing him, and he didn't explain much, just continued.
"Of course you have something to do with monkeys, you're a big male monkey, that's why you're surrounded by a group of female monkeys."
Ling Tiancheng: "......"
"You...... Licentious. ”
He was really angry, not only because Zhuang Siyan scolded him for being a monkey, but also because he didn't believe in him and took it for granted that he would take more concubines.
Regarding this matter, Ling Tiancheng had already told her that these concubines were just a tool to temporarily support the previous dynasty.
Later, Ling Tiancheng stabilized the situation, and those people were fine.
As for accepting a new concubine, he didn't even think about it.
But Zhuang Siyan used a ridiculous attitude, but she clearly conveyed a message to him, this little woman didn't believe her, and she was worried about this matter.
Ling Tiancheng looked at her, and saw that Zhuang Siyan was still flashing with big eyes, as if he was waiting for his answer, and as if he saw him angry, he was a little bit of a good show.
The anger in my heart rose a little more.
However, his attitude was not as cynical as Zhuang Siyan, but extremely serious and very forbearing: "You don't have to talk like this, I will do everything I promised you, and you are always the only one in my heart, whether you receive it or not." ”
After speaking, without waiting for Zhuang Siyan to reply, he turned around and went back to the camp.
Zhuang Siyan was stunned, and his voice was only half shouted, and when he saw the person leaving violently, he stopped all his movements.
Angry? Probably, with Ling Tiancheng's temper and the identity of the emperor, he said that he was a big male monkey, and it was estimated that he could vomit blood so angrily.
But it doesn't seem like that's what he's focusing on!
Zhuang Siyan took what he said before leaving in his mind again.
Is there only me in his heart?
Hey, whether this matter is his sincere words, or whether it is to coax Zhuang Siyan, she didn't care too much.
She was just joking, of course, the purpose was really to make Ling Tiancheng angry.
He has been too close to each other in the past two days, and Zhuang Siyan has no time to see others.
When she was patrolling the docks, she found two informants of her own, who were supposed to be looking for her, but these people were indoctrinated from the beginning.
There are outsiders here, and the news is not leaked.
Zhuang Siyan and Ling Tiancheng sent it together, and those people could only be in a hurry, and they couldn't risk passing the news to her.
Now that the man was back in the tent, Zhuang Siyan hurriedly walked out, snatched a horse from a guard, turned over, and walked outside.
Her informant was still waiting for her, and when she saw someone coming, she quickly walked to an empty courtyard on the corner.
Zhuang Siyan didn't follow, but walked a little farther away, bolted the horse to the post on the side of the road, and then looked around, and then made a detour and fell into the yard quickly.
"Si Gongzi, there's news from the capital."
"Beijing? What's the news? ”
"The traitor Zhuang Changyuan escaped from prison and ran away."
"Huh? What did you say? ”
The man replied again in a suppressed voice, and then said, "I heard that he has left the capital, and the officials of the imperial court are afraid that they will not be able to catch him." ”
Zhuang Siyan hurriedly asked: "Is this news reliable?" ”
The man nodded: "Reliable, and there is another news over there, the emperor is not in Beijing at this time, I heard that he is going south, and he should be here with us at this time." ”
Zhuang Siyan almost knelt down for her informant, she just used a little money to buy off some seemingly useful people, but she didn't expect that they could find out such an important matter.
It really made Zhuang Siyan sigh.
She nodded and said, "Okay, I know, I'll find me again with new news." ”
Then the man hesitated, and then stopped.
Zhuang Siyan asked, "Is there anything else?" ”
The man took out a painting from his sleeve and handed it to Zhuang Siyan to unfold: "Master Si, please look at this." ”
As soon as Zhuang Siyan's eyes touched the painting, he was really not good.
It was none other than Ling Tiancheng, and it was really similar to it, even the frowning expression was not bad.
The man said, "I saw this man with Mr. Si today...... ”
"I know about this, he is not the emperor, I have seen the real emperor, and he is completely different, but the two look really similar.
You don't have to check this matter again, just keep an eye on Zhuang Changyuan's news. ”
The man said yes and flashed out of the dark house.
But Zhuang Siyan stood inside for a long time.
Uncle, I don't know if it's good or bad to ask for these informants, will I find out her identity one day?
Or maybe it's right now.
Zhuang Siyan and Ye Yuanpei both have the means to bury their identities, but these people are too superb, they just shocked her.
She shook her head vigorously and focused her thoughts on the news in Beijing.
It is really a miracle that Zhuang Changyuan was able to escape from the prison of the Dasheng Dynasty.
According to their previous experience, it would take three days for a letter to come from the capital at the earliest, even if Zhuang Changyuan escaped from prison as soon as Ling Tiancheng left, it would be tomorrow if he received the news here.
Ling Tiancheng won't stay here any longer.
Prison escape for repeat offenders is a big deal, as soon as the news arrives, Ling Tiancheng will definitely go back, and Zhuang Siyan even thinks that he may also go back.
After all, it is necessary to find out that he walked away selfishly.
When she came out of the dark house, half an hour had passed, her mood was complicated, and she didn't look elsewhere, but she didn't want to see Ling Tiancheng at this time, so she went to the tent alone.
As a result, as soon as I entered, I saw Qingfeng sitting inside.
Zhuang Siyan looked left and right, he was the only one, and asked, "It's so late, you're still here, what's the matter?" ”
Qingfeng nodded: "I'm waiting for Qingran." ”
"What's the matter?"
Qing Ran's trust in Zhuang Siyan was the same as Wen Qing, and this matter was originally going to be told to her in advance, but because Ling Tiancheng was here in the past two days, these people deliberately avoided it and tried not to appear in front of them as much as possible.
Seeing her come at this time, and asked about it again, she said frankly: "General Ye has been out to sea for two days, and no news has come back, and some people in the army have begun to speculate, so we want to arrange for a ship to go out to find it." ”
Zhuang Siyan pondered for a moment, and when he raised his eyes, he said firmly: "Wait one more day, after tomorrow, if he hasn't heard back, he will go out and find it."
But before that, the preparations must be done, the defense here must not be relaxed at all, and the other people who go out to find it must not be unguarded. ”
Qingfeng replied: "My subordinates know." ”
Zhuang Siyan paused again: "When the time comes, if it doesn't work, I'll go with you." ”
"No, my lord is here, if you want to leave, he will definitely not agree, and besides, it is extremely risky to go to sea, what if there is anything missing?"
Zhuang Siyan: "Let's not talk about these things first, let's take a look in one day, and when Qingran comes, you tell him what I said, calm down, don't spread news everywhere in the army, it is very important to stabilize the morale of the army." ”
Qingfeng replied yes.
Zhuang Siyan asked about the situation in Qinglin again, and then he came out of the tent and went to the place where he rested.
Ling Tiancheng hadn't slept yet, sitting under the lamp and waiting for her.
said that he was waiting for her, but his face was not good-looking, and he might still be angry at Zhuang Siyan's words.
Zhuang Siyan said in his heart, don't be angry, there are bigger things waiting for you to be angry in the future, mine is just a joke, it's not worth it.
