Gao Maoxue immediately stood up: "The general should go back to the house and rest early." ”

Zhao Wanqing glanced back unnaturally, and then hesitated to ask Gao Maoxue: "You...... Send me? ”

Gao Maoxue was here, and she was a little worried that Xue Xiaolan would be discovered.

Gao Maoxue was stunned for a moment before nodding and responding, "Of course you can." ”

The two walked on the path back to the "cowshed", Zhao Wanqing usually didn't deliberately listen to whether there was anyone nearby, but she had just decided a "big event" with Xue Xiaolan, and at this time she had to start preparing for this "big event".

So Zhao Wanqing pricked up her ears and listened to the sounds around her, and felt that there were six people who were vigilantly patrolling, which seemed to ask Gao Maoxue inadvertently:

"Adjutant General, this palace guard...... Is it patrolling all night? ”

Gao Maoxue replied in a deep voice: "Yes, after all, the criminals of the Chixia League are escorted this time, in case they have accomplices to rob them, they can also be taken down together." ”

Zhao Wanqing always felt that the accomplice they were waiting for was herself, she shrugged her shoulders and shook off the cold sweat on her back, and continued to ask Gao Maoxue: "Six people in a shift?" ”

Gao Maoxue seemed a little surprised: "How does the general know?" ”

Zhao Wanqing was embarrassed, thinking that she must be too careless in her usual life, but at this time, she just asked a little more carefully, which actually aroused Gao Maoxue's suspicion.

Seeing that Zhao Wanqing didn't answer, Gao Maoxue changed the topic again and said, "It's here, you can rest early." ”

Zhao Wanqing raised her eyes and found that they had indeed walked to the door of the "cowshed", but Zhao Wanqing refused to go in: "Wait, deputy general." ”

"What's wrong?" Gao Maoxue asked her patiently.

Zhao Wanqing was serious: "I can't sleep, you can accompany me to walk around the yard." ”

Gao Maoxue asked with concern: "Why can't you sleep?" Do you want to send a military doctor to see you? ”

"No!" Zhao Wanqing hurriedly waved her hand, she was actually sleepy, and it was only because of Xue Xiaolan's entrustment that she had to cheer up and keep Gao Maoxue: "I just want to supervise and supervise the work of the palace guards, can you accompany me to take a look?" ”

She still has a lot of questions to ask Gao Maoxue, if he, an all-round support NPC, leaves her to sleep, where should she find the answers?

Gao Maoxue nodded and finally complied.

While the two of them went to see the palace guards patrolling in the post house, Zhao Wanqing followed up and asked Gao Maoxue, how is the force of each guard here? How's the temper? Where are the weaknesses? The possibility of one person taking on six people alone.

Gao Maoxue answered them one by one, and finally Zhao Wanqing came to the conclusion: hard steel is not good!

Because of the reliable data given by Gao Maoxue, the palace guards were selected from the elite of the forbidden army, and they were all top masters, and they only obeyed the orders of Jiang Chengyuan, the king of Yuyu, and they still had the right to correct the law on the spot when they encountered those who committed rebellion.

The more Zhao Wanqing listened, the more worried she became, and finally she asked Gao Maoxue weakly: "That...... Is it possible for them to leave their posts without permission? ”

Gao Maoxue was puzzled for a while: "What you said about leaving your post without permission is ......"

"That's it......" Zhao Wanqing stretched out her hand and gestured randomly, "It's just to leave their patrol area and not stay in this area." ”

Gao Maoxue suddenly understood, he looked up at the direction of the third floor of the post house, and said: "The first priority of the palace guards is to protect the safety of King Yu, if someone attacks King Yu, they will naturally take down the assassin as soon as possible, this is not considered to be an unauthorized departure from their duties, it is their duty." ”

Zhao Wanqing touched her chin and glanced in the direction of the third floor of the post house, and muttered, "Attack King Yu...... I'm afraid that before it caused a riot, the assassin would have to be taken down by King Yu first, right? ”

What Zhao Wanqing thought in her heart was: With Jiang Chengyuan's martial arts, do these guards have a chance to make a move?

Gao Maoxue bowed his head and said, "Naturally." The reason why it is necessary to arrange so many palace guards is probably to prevent the special situation of the masters from attacking him, after all, they are outnumbered, if someone gathers more than ten peerless masters in the rivers and lakes, they can still fight with Prince Yu. ”

There are too many slots in his words, such as Jiang Chengyuan, a good prince, why can he be strong enough to be more than ten peerless masters to fight with him; How can peerless masters be summoned......

Zhao Wanqing didn't want to complain one by one, but only said what she wanted to say the most: "Is King Yu paranoia about being killed?" How did it look like a lot of people wanted his life? ”

Zhao Wanqing originally meant to make a joke, but she didn't expect Gao Maoxue to suddenly reply: "Prince Yu is the pillar of the Great Qi Kingdom, but he is not the Son of Heaven of the Great Qi Kingdom, the same country and the enemy country, there are really many people who want him to die." Because of his existence, the interests of some people in high places are blocked. ”

Zhao Wanqing frowned slightly when she heard this: "You say that...... Jiang Chengyuan doesn't seem to be easy......"

Hearing this, Zhao Wanqing felt a little distressed about Jiang Chengyuan.

Gao Maoxue seemed to know how to read minds, and then said: "The general doesn't have to worry, if Prince Yu was really so easy to deal with, these people would have succeeded a long time ago." His power and himself are like a tough and upright tree, and those who have different hearts are like the occasional breeze, which can't help the tree at all. ”

Zhao Wanqing frowned again when she heard this: "You say that...... Why do I think that King Yu is like a big devil, and he dominates one side. ”

Gao Maoxue smiled, without any complicated emotions, and no longer continued to evaluate, but asked Zhao Wanqing: "Are you really not sleepy?" Or is there something? ”

Zhao Wanqing was dumbfounded for a while, not knowing how to answer.

Gao Maoxue said with certainty: "It has something to do with King Yu and the palace guards, is it a matter of the Chixia League?" ”

When he talked about this, Zhao Wanqing immediately recruited: "Adjutant General, you know me too well!" It's a roundworm in my stomach! ”

Gao Maoxue turned his head a little embarrassed: "It's just that the general is not good at lying." ”

Zhao Wanqing saw a palace guard walking by not far from them, reached out and pulled Gao Maoxue's sleeve, and said in a low voice: "Come over and talk." ”

The two of them took a few steps into the dark corner of the courtyard and crouched down behind a large rock, a scene that was not only familiar, but also seemed to be the third time, and they crouched behind a cover to talk.

Zhao Wanqing hugged her hands on her knees, trying to group her strong body at this time into a standard ball, and said to Gao Maoxue: "I want to let people go." ”

Gao Maoxue's bright eyes could still be seen in the dark, he stared at Zhao Wanqing, and his tone was sincere: "General, I told you, harboring enemy spies is the same crime." ”

"I know." Zhao Wanqing was also upright, "But I promise that they will not appear in the Great Qi Kingdom in the future, in this way, they are not considered spies, and they are not guilty, they are not guilty, of course I will not be guilty......"

Before the words fell, Gao Maoxue refuted her without hesitation: "You are a fallacy." ”

Zhao Wanqing paused and didn't speak, Gao Maoxue probably thought she was wronged, and hurriedly explained: "I don't mean that you mean anything bad, it's just that people are in the hands of Prince Yu, and they want to release people, it's impossible!" ”

Zhao Wanqing whispered: "Secretly." ”

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps approaching, Gao Maoxue did not answer Zhao Wanqing's words, but stood up from behind the big stone, and listened to the palace guards salute and asked, "Deputy General, are you ...... What is it doing here? ”

Gao Maoxue replied calmly: "Excuse me, the post house is not very convenient, I'll come out to relieve myself." ”

The palace guard replied: "It's my subordinates who are disturbing, and the deputy general is please." ”

Gao Maoxue raised his hand: "You patrol." ”

"Yes."

When the footsteps went away, Gao Maoxue squatted down again, and Zhao Wanqing moved to the side straightly, saying, "You want to relieve yourself?" Shall I avoid it? ”

Gao Maoxue laughed out loud: "It's just to take away the palace guards." ”

"Huh?" Zhao Wanqing replied in a low voice, and then she breathed a sigh of relief for some reason, and still insisted on what she had just thought and continued: "I'm going to secretly release people, can you help me?" ”

Xue Xiaolan looked for her, and she looked for Gao Maoxue. In the final analysis, she, as a general, is really cowardly and wasteful, and there are only two things that can be solved by herself, and sometimes she does rely too much on Gao Maoxue.

But what's the solution? Although Zhao Wanqing knows it in her heart, it is difficult for her to change this, after all, she has been carrying the shortcoming of being timid and afraid of things since she was in her mother's womb, and she will not be able to cure it for a while.

Gao Maoxue pondered for a moment and said, "I'll help." ”

Zhao Wanqing patted Gao Maoxue's shoulder excitedly, then turned her head to look around, and asked while looking, "That palace guard left just now?" ”

Gao Maoxue said affirmatively: "It's gone." ”

Zhao Wanqing pricked up her ears and listened carefully, and could feel the breath of another person nearby, so she pretended to be nervous and asked Gao Maoxue: "Adjutant General, in addition to the two of us, there seems to be a third person here." ”

If it weren't for Gao Maoxue still squatting in front of her, this kind of scary words would have been uttered, Zhao Wanqing herself would have run away in fright, and she would not have looked mysteriously left and right at all.

Gao Maoxue also listened attentively and said, "Indeed." ”

He raised his hand to his waist and drew his sword from its sheath to meet the third man.

Zhao Wanqing suddenly thought of something, and pressed his hand back, and she asked tentatively: "Xiaolan, is it you?" ”

In the dark, a figure gradually approached, and sure enough, it was Xue Xiaolan.

Gao Maoxue had seen her when he was in the barracks, and naturally knew that she was Zhao Wanqing's junior sister, so he put away his sword and looked at this "uninvited guest" curiously.

"Come here, come here." Zhao Wanqing waved her hand enthusiastically at Xue Xiaolan as if she was looking for someone to chatter.

Outcome......

It turned into three people squatting behind the big rock, forming a standard triangle, and the other two people were also infected by Zhao Wanqing with their hands on their knees, and they all formed themselves into a standard ball.

If anyone were to pass by, at first glance, they would think it was three older children playing games.

However, in Zhao Wanqing's view, they are more like a small "pyramid scheme" party.

Zhao Wanqing, who took on the role of "leader", asked: "What should I do?" Give me a workable plan for each of you, right? ”
