Chapter 181: Changes in the Barracks
Seeing that Sima Hongyan had not replied to Zhong Liying for a long time, Shi Jinyan thought for a moment and roughly guessed Sima Hongyan's thoughts. At this time, seeing Sima Hongyan's inquiring eyes towards herself, she thought for a moment, got up and walked over.
Ban Lingruo followed Shi Jinyan's side, took out a handkerchief with red eyes to wipe the tears of Zhong Liying and Xiao Hongying, and looked at Sima Hongyan expectantly.
In fact, who of these four sisters doesn't like Xiao Hongying? Even if Shi Jinyan sometimes makes it difficult for her, the root of it is out of love. Even if there is no sworn ceremony, she is actually regarded as his little sister.
Shi Jinyan understands Sima Hongyan's difficulties the most, and she is also a little hesitant in this matter. But seeing today's scene, she couldn't say no. I secretly regretted in my heart that I should have explained this matter to Ban Lingruo and Zhong Liying in advance in private, otherwise I would not have put Sima Hongyan in a dilemma now.
After careful consideration, Shi Jinyan felt that the overall situation should still be the most important. She walked up to Zhong Liying and patted her shoulder comfortingly, and shook her head slightly at Sima Hongyan without anyone noticing.
Shi Jinyan would choose to refuse, which made Sima Hongyan slightly surprised, but after thinking about it, she immediately understood what Shi Jinyan meant.
At this time, Zhong Liying and Xiao Hongying both stopped crying, and the two of them also looked at Sima Hongyan, who had not spoken, with eyes full of anticipation.
Coupled with Ban Lingruo's eyes, in the end, even all the people in the courtyard couldn't help but look at Sima Hongyan. Countless glances made Sima Hongyan feel anxious as if he was on fire.
This is the first time that Sima Hongyan has hesitated, and no one has ever seen Sima Hongyan who has been so undecided. And Sima Hongyan knew in his heart that if he didn't express his position for too long, I was afraid that misunderstandings would arise among the sisters.
"What should I do?" Sima Hongyan always recalled these three words in his heart.
After a while, Sima Hongyan suddenly asked Xiao Hongying, "Hongying, tell me, how do the four of us sisters treat you?" ”
Xiao Hongying replied without hesitation: "Love is like a sister!" ”
"Yes!" Sima Hongyan said: "Each of us treats you like our own sister, I can say this responsibly, there is no adulteration!" ”
didn't know what Sima Hongyan was going to say, everyone looked at Sima Hongyan in a daze, listening to what she said next.
Sima Hongyan said again: "Red Shadow, let me ask you again, what is sisterhood?" ”
Xiao Hongying didn't answer immediately this time, and after thinking about it, she said: "Sisterhood is to be willing to go to the soup for your sisters, and you will not give up!" ”
"Good!" Sima Hongyan praised again: "You know this truth when you are only sixteen years old, can I still pretend to be stupid?" Since the fourth sister said it today, for the sake of sisterhood, no matter what happens in the future, I will bear it! ”
Everyone heard it in a fog, and they didn't quite understand the meaning of Sima Hongyan's words, only Shi Jinyan slowly frowned.
I heard Sima Hongyan continue: "The four of us have already regarded you as our sister, so today with the request of the fourth sister, I agreed to her. But I'm going to ask you in advance, Red Shadow, are you willing to do it yourself? ”
Xiao Hongying cried with a little joy, nodded again and again with tears, and said, "I can't ask for it!" I've wanted to recognize you as sisters for a long time! ”
Sima Hongyan said: "Okay! Since you are willing, we will set up a table for wine and hold a worship ceremony on another day! But before we do that, we have a few more things to do. ”
At this time, Xiao Hongying was so beautiful, where did she care what she had to do, she agreed: "No matter what you ask me to do, Sister Hongyan, I will definitely do it!" ”
Sima Hongyan smiled: "Don't promise too easily, I'm afraid what we have to do is not so easy." ”
Zhong Liying said at this time: "No matter what, I'll help her!" ”
Sima Hongyan got up and patted the two of them on the shoulder, and said, "Let's not talk about those today, today we are mainly congratulating the third sister for winning and the two of you having a new home, and we will talk about other things another day." Come, let's continue to drink the bar. ”
Not to mention anything else, Sima Hongyan finally agreed to accept Xiao Hongying's sister, and everyone was congratulating, and the banquet became lively again. Zhong Liying and Xiao Hongying swept away their previous depression, and the two of them drank and talked happily, one congratulating and one thanking.
Shi Jinyan was slightly depressed, sat down next to Sima Hongyan, and asked her softly, "What are your plans?" ”
Sima Hongyan drank a glass of wine and said to Shi Jinyan: "Let's sleep together tonight, I have something I want to discuss with you." ”
Since she met Sima Hongyan, Ban Lingruo had never seen Sima Hongyan sad, and today's events seemed a little unusual. Ban Lingruo sat not far away and secretly looked at Sima Hongyan, who was talking to Shi Jinyan, and thought thoughtfully.
Seeing that it was not early and everyone was tired, Sima Hongyan ordered everyone to come here today and disperse.
As soon as he finished speaking, two people suddenly flashed at the door, and Sima Hongyan suddenly felt a pang in his heart when he saw it, it turned out that the people who walked in were two of the ten red sleeves of the female army. Seeing the solemn expressions of the two captains, Sima Hongyan had a faint bad premonition in his heart.
The female army captain suddenly arrived, something must have happened. The other four people followed behind Sima Hongyan and hurried up to meet them.
Coming to a secluded place, one of the captains whispered, "Four Commanders! Miss Xiao! Please forgive me for disturbing your rest due to the suddenness of the incident. However, there was a strange thing in the Hongyan military camp just now, and his subordinates had to come to report it. ”
The female army is Sima Hongyan's hard work, so Sima Hongyan is more nervous than anyone else when something happens to the female army, and she doesn't have time to be polite, so she said urgently: "Don't talk about these false, what happened, tell me in detail!" ”
The two captains are the captains of the fifth and sixth teams, and tonight is their vigil. The fifth captain, Jiang Susu, hurriedly replied to Sima Hongyan and said: "Tonight, I don't know why two of the torches in the southeast corner of the camp have been extinguished. ”
Liu Chun'er, the captain of the sixth team, continued: "We found traces of people hiding there in the trees not far from the barracks. Someone spied on the women's army, and the two of us felt that the matter was serious, so we ordered the whole army to rise up and impose martial law, and the two of us rushed to report to the commanders. ”
Shi Jinyan asked, "Since you found someone snooping, why did you just say that what you found was a strange thing?" ”
Jiang Susu and Liu Chun'er glanced at each other, and Jiang Susu said: "It's because we searched around for a long time, but we didn't find any traces of anyone there, not even a single footprint." So we think it's a bit weird. ”
When the two female captains reported, Sima Hongyan found that things were by no means so simple. She immediately turned her head to Ban Lingruo and said, "Tell the inside to disperse, tell Wu Zhao to leave someone in our house tonight, and if you find something abnormal, you will immediately come to the barracks to find us." ”
At this moment, Sima Hongyan is not the eldest sister, but the commander of the female army, and what she says now is a military order, and there is no room for sloppiness. Ban Lingruo looked solemn, said "order", turned around and returned to the courtyard to arrange.
Sima Hongyan said to Zhong Liying again: "Fetch our Butterfly Armor Weapon, we will wait for you here." Zhong Liying turned around and walked away quickly.
Then Sima Hongyan asked Xiao Hongying again: "Where is our horse?" ”
Xiao Hongying said: "Return to the Great Commander!" The horse is in the backyard, the harness is not unloaded! ”
"Good!" Sima Hongyan replied, "You take Su Su and Chun'er to lead our horses to the gate of the mansion." Let Su Su and Chun'er help us guard the door, and when everyone arrives, we will go back to the camp immediately! ”
Xiao Hongying took the order and ran quickly to the backyard stable with the two female captains.
While waiting, Sima Hongyan asked Shi Jinyan beside him, "What do you think about this matter?" ”
Shi Jinyan had been thinking about this question for a long time, and she replied, "It seems that some people are starting to take an interest in us, and they are eager to know the secrets of the female army, so they come to find out late at night." I suspect it has something to do with the visiting Shikoku! ”
Sima Hongyan said: "I think so too, the female army is both a secret and a threat to them, so naturally I want to find out." I just don't know where the news leaked out, and it caught their attention so quickly. ”
While speaking, Ban Lingruo rushed back, the noise in the courtyard had quieted down, Wu Zhao took the fourteen guards to Sima Hongyan and arched his hand, and walked out quickly without speaking.
