Watching the two of them run away, Sima Hongyan and the others laughed with a grin.

Nanfeng Lone Shadow slowly approached, and said to Sima Hongyan in an extremely soft voice, "What? Seeing how happy you looked, did things go well? ”

Sima Hongyan smiled and nodded, "Hmm! Not only did it go smoothly, but there were also extra surprises! ”

Although these two people haven't said it explicitly, they fall in love with each other and have already identified each other's emotions in their hearts. But when the two of them spoke like this, the three Shi Jinyan who were watching were stunned, Ban Lingruo pulled Shi Jinyan and Zhong Liying's arms, and asked quietly: "What's wrong with the two of them, how strange are they talking?" ”

Shi Jinyan said: "You can ask in person, you will know!" ”

Sima Hongyan and everyone came to the main hall, and Xiao Hongying also changed her clothes and ran over. Sima Hongyan told in detail what happened in the palace today, mainly for Nanfeng Lonely Shadow. Next, we have to discuss how to arrange the rest of the matter.

First of all, Sima Hongyan asked Zhong Liying: "How is the situation of female soldiers now?" It is said that many people were arranged to investigate who was in Yanling and had dealings with Dongning, right? ”

Zhong Liying said: "Yes, but there are not many people, and only two squads have been transferred." After all, it was in the capital, and I didn't dare to make too big a move! ”

Sima Hongyan said: "Then gather everyone back, this matter can be put aside for a while, and we will pull the team out to experience it." ”

Ban Lingruo said: "Sister, it's not like someone really wants to make trouble, where are we going to practice?" ”

Sima Hongyan said: "Actually, what I mean is that everyone has been locked up in the barracks for so long, and they always have to give everyone a vacation or something." This time, we went out to hide from our relatives, and the female army could not stay in the capital without anyone to take care of it, so we simply asked everyone to take a vacation, and they all went home to stay with their families for a few days, and when we came back, everyone came back to report again. It's a month! ”

Zhong Liying said: "It's good, but it's all released, what if someone refuses to come back in the future?" Eldest sister, don't forget, they are not ordinary people now, all of them have unique skills, so four or five hundred people have gone home, isn't it inappropriate? ”

"What? Four or five hundred? Sima Hongyan was shocked and said, "When did there be so many people?" ”

Zhongli Yingqi said, "Didn't I tell you, eldest sister?" Since you asked me to expand the women's army, we now have nearly 500 female soldiers, and we are all training veterans. ”

Sima Hongyan really didn't expect the women's army to expand so quickly, she suddenly had an idea, and said: "That's okay, you go to the women's army to arrange it in a while, and let everyone who has a family go home on vacation and return in a month." The remaining single ones count how many people, I have other arrangements. Also, if the ten red sleeves are left, they will be aggrieved and don't go home, and they will have the opportunity to compensate them in the future. ”

Zhong Liying nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go in a while!" ”

Shi Jinyan said: "What about how many of us?" What are your arrangements, you can't run around, right? ”

Sima Hongyan smiled slyly and said: "We have to find a good place to hide, but we can't let the emperor find us, it depends on the ability of the South Wind Alliance Leader!" ”

The five sisters all looked at Nanfeng Guying at the same time, and Nanfeng Guying smiled and said: "If you want to find a place to cultivate quietly, I have a good place to go, not to mention a few of you, even if you bring your female army over, it's no problem." ”

Sima Hongyan asked with some disbelief: "There is still such a place in Yanling, can hundreds of people be hidden?" ”

Nanfeng Lonely Shadow said: "Cangxiu Mountain! Ever heard of it? ”

The five girls shook their heads at the same time, and Nanfeng Guying smiled: "It's right that you haven't heard of it, if you know this place, then it's not a secret!" ”

After a brief tidying up, Zhong Liying went back to the women's army to make arrangements, and Xiao Hongying accompanied her.

Sima Hongyan and a few sisters and Nanfeng Guying changed into white clothes, solemnly went to pay tribute to them, and in front of the eight spirit tablets, Sima Hongyan made an oath that they would send their bodies back to the mainland for proper burial, and never leave them alone in the wilderness of Dongning.

Sima Hongyan emphatically instructed Steward Sun that in the future, this mourning hall would send someone to take care of it every day, and the incense could not be broken. Steward Sun agreed, and he was very strange in his heart: Does Miss plan to keep this mourning hall in the future?

If you are not a direct relative, you can't set up a tablet in your own house, let alone keep the incense from now on, which is simply a permanent offering as an ancestral hall. Steward Sun felt that this was too unruly, but after looking at the young lady's determined expression, he didn't dare to say words of dissuasion.

Sima Hongyan doesn't care what the hell it is, these people died for her, she has to worship these people for the rest of her life, so as to remind herself not to forget these brothers and sisters who value love and righteousness.

Hearing that Miss was going to go out on an errand on the emperor's order as soon as she came back, Qinghan's little mouth pouted, and she found that the time with Miss was getting less and less, for fear that one day her Miss would no longer need her to serve.

Sima Hongyan knew Qinghan's thoughts, and instructed her: "You are the person in charge of the house during the time I go out, help me take care of the house, and I will be back in a short time." ”

Towards the evening, Zhong Liying and Xiao Hongying came back, Zhong Liying said that the women's army had been arranged, and in addition to the ten red sleeves, there were less than a hundred people who had no family members and needed to go to Cangxiu Mountain with them. The rest of the men began to disguise themselves and leave the camp in batches to visit their parents tomorrow, but the female soldiers said they would return in a month's time.

Sima Hongyan also made arrangements for these 100 people, and asked them to ambush everywhere along the road from the capital, and during this month, she had to understand the movements in the capital in great detail and what happened.

Xiao Hongying heard that a mourning hall had been set up for several of her deceased senior brothers, and she was about to go to worship in a hurry, Zhong Liying saw that Xiao Hongying's eyes were slightly red, so she accompanied her.

After dinner, everyone was preparing for tomorrow's trip, and suddenly the porter came to report: The Ninth Highness has come down!

Sima Hongyan had long expected that Yan Hong would come, so she asked everyone to continue packing their things, and she went to the front alone to see Yan Hong.

When she came to the front hall, Sima Hongyan was shocked, is this still the Yan Hong she knows?

The people in the hall had thin faces, red eyes, beards under their foreheads, and haggard faces, and there were still the Nine Highnesses who were as handsome and arrogant as usual!

I don't know what I sent, Sima Hongyan stepped forward and didn't know where to start.

After seeing Sima Hongyan, Yan Hong suddenly got up, stepped in front of Sima Hongyan in a few steps, and asked in a low voice, "I heard that you are leaving?" ”

Sima Hongyan subconsciously took a few steps back and replied, "Yes!" According to the emperor's holy order, go out to investigate the gangsters who tried to kidnap the envoys of Dongning! ”

Yan Hong stared at Sima Hongyan and said, "How can there be any gangsters who intend to be unfavorable to the envoys of Dongning?" This is actually your ploy to avoid harmony, right? ”

Sima Hongyan was secretly taken aback, but said quietly on his face: "What do you mean by this?" The news is spreading, haven't you heard? ”

Yan Hong snorted and said, "With that South Wind Alliance Lord here, it's not easy to create some rumors?" The officials of Yanling were already timid and afraid, and they were already stupid when they heard the news, so they didn't even check whether the news was true, so they immediately reported it to the capital. These tricks can be hidden, and no one else can hide them from me! Hongyan, when did you start deliberately hiding it from me? ”

Sima Hongyan knew that she couldn't hide it from Yan Hong, so she looked at him with her eyes and asked, "What?" You're here today to debunk me to my face? ”

Yan Hong saw that the sense of distance in Sima Hongyan's eyes was very unpleasant, and he said, "I'm not here for this. You know that my father wants me to marry the ninth princess of Beiling as the main concubine, why didn't you say anything? Don't you have anything to say to me? ”

Sima Hongyan wanted to talk to Yan Hong for a long time, but since Yan Hong asked today, Sima Hongyan simply opened up and said: "Yan Hong, I will treat you as my good friend, a close good friend, we can face life and death together, I can do anything for you as a friend, but, but ......"

"But we're just friends after all, aren't we?" Yan Hong asked in a cold voice with a somewhat frightening face.

Sima Hongyan felt that he was a little cruel to Yan Hong like this, but he couldn't always maintain an inexplicable relationship with him. Especially when he and Nanfeng Lonely Shadow have already expressed their hearts to each other, it is even more taboo to be ambiguous and ambiguous. So she gritted her teeth and said, "Yes! You're right! ”

Yan Hong was stunned, for so long, he had always felt that Sima Hongyan had feelings for him, but today's answer was so absolute, Yan Hong was disappointed in his heart, and felt that his heart was like a knife, which made his whole body tremble.

No matter what, Yan Hong was very affectionate to himself, Sima Hongyan couldn't bear it, and wanted to help him sit down, but Yan Hongyi grabbed his hands, Yan Hong said to her a little out of control: "I don't want to marry any Beiling princess, I just want you to be by my side." I'm going to beg my father and the emperor to get rid of Beiling's affiliation, or, or let them choose individual princes, Hongyan, you stay by my side, and I'll marry you as my concubine, okay? ”

The Nine Emperor Princes, who have always been cold-faced and rarely spoken, actually said such gaffe words in front of her, Sima Hongyan felt very uncomfortable, and Yan Hong only had a different side from usual when facing her. It can be seen that she has a very important position in Yan Hong's heart, and Yan Hong is willing to show her true side only in front of her. Looking at Yan Hong's haggard and embarrassed appearance, it is estimated that it is not for the ninth princess of Beiling, but for her.

With a soft heart, Sima Hongyan did not withdraw his hands from Yan Hong's hands, but asked Yan Hong to sit down, and then said in an extremely gentle voice: "Yan Hong, I know that you are good to me, and I know your thoughts about me, but I want you to understand my thoughts." I have always regarded you as my brother, as a big brother, but I have never had a love affair between a man and a woman. I know these words will make you feel bad, but I don't want to deceive you, I want you to know how I feel. I'm very sorry Yan Hong, I can't promise you! As he spoke, Sima Hongyan gently pulled out his hands from Yan Hong's hands.
