The four Sima Hongyan sisters looked at each other, secretly ashamed in their hearts. In the difficult problems that they felt were difficult to deal with, they were easily explained by a little girl who usually doesn't pay much attention.

Sima Hongyan felt that Xiao Hongying's words were ten times more sufficient than the reason she wanted to say, and looking at the expressions of Shi Jinyan and the others, it was estimated that they also agreed with this answer, and even saved the question.

Today, they found that they might have to re-examine Xiao Hongying, a little girl. Although they are younger than them, they have more experience in the rivers and lakes than their four sisters. If you can't keep her in the women's army, it will be a loss.

Sima Hongyan happily patted Xiao Hongying's shoulder and said, "Congratulations!" That's right. I'll find a way to tell your father and mother to keep you in the Red Face Army. Of course, if you haven't changed your mind. ”

Hearing that Sima Hongyan was willing to leave him, Xiao Hongying was overjoyed, jumped up excitedly and said, "Naturally, I won't change my mind, as long as I can stay, I'm willing to do anything." ”

Ban Lingruo said with a smile: "If you officially join the Hongyan Army, you will have to live the same routine as other female soldiers every day, which is hard and monotonous, but you can't be as free as now." ”

Xiao Hongying said nonchalantly: "During the time I stayed here, everyone came over like this every day, I didn't feel any hard work or monotony. He turned his head and asked Sima Hongyan again: "Sister Hongyan, you said that you would find a way to tell my father to let me stay here, I don't know what good way you have?" ”

Sima Hongyan hadn't seriously thought about this question yet, but when he saw Xiao Hongying asking, he thought about it carefully and said, "I don't think any of us will be able to convince your father and mother to let you stay here." ”

Xiao Hongying's expression froze when she heard this, obviously a little unexpected, and then she immediately shouted angrily: "Sima Hongyan, you don't count when you speak, do you want to play tricks so quickly?" ”

"Red Shadow!" Zhong Liying stopped her at this time and said, "Don't be so unruly to the eldest sister, you let the eldest sister finish her words first." "Maybe because Tong and Xiao Hongying are from the rivers and lakes, so Zhong Liying and Xiao Hongying are usually close, but at this moment, seeing that Xiao Hongying is about to lose his temper again, he can't help but stop it.

Sima Hongyan's face was slightly gloomy, and he said to Xiao Hongying, who was still puffing up: "Miss Xiao! If you don't fix your temper tantrum, I really won't help you. ”

Hearing Sima Hongyan say that she wanted to help herself, Xiao Hongying forcibly held back her young lady's temper, suddenly bowed to Sima Hongyan, and said loudly: "Sister Hongyan, I'm sorry, I just talked nonsense, please forgive me!" ”

Sima Hongyan saw her bow and apologize, but she was surprised, but she liked her straightforward temperament more and more. So his face softened, and he said to her: "What I just meant was that it would be better for any of us to intercede than for you to go and talk to your father and mother in person." And if you tell your father and mother what you have just said to us, I am sure they will not stop you again. ”

Xiao Hongying obviously didn't believe it, and said, "I'll go back and say it myself?" How could my dad let me go when he saw me? Sister Hongyan, you definitely can't do this, it's just letting me fall into the net. ”

Sima Hongyan said: "I definitely won't let you go back by yourself." I will personally write a letter to your father and mother, and then ask Sister Shi to accompany you back. When you arrive at the Xiao Ling Sword Sect, Sister Shi naturally knows how to help you. I just need you to remember one thing, no matter what your father and mother say to you, you must not be petty, let alone willful, as long as you tell your father and mother what you really think. If you want your parents to feel at ease with you, you have to prove to them that you are now a sensible girl. Got it? ”

Xiao Hongying looked at Sima Hongyan and then at Shi Jinyan, as if she understood, but she didn't seem to fully understand. However, seeing that Sima Hongyan was sure, he no longer hesitated and replied: "Okay, I will listen to you, and I will go back tomorrow." ”

Hearing Sima Hongyan say that she would accompany Xiao Hongying to Tianling Mountain, Shi Jinyan understood Sima Hongyan's intentions, both of them were extremely smart, and they could know each other's thoughts without saying much. Shi Jinyan nodded slightly to Sima Hongyan.

Early the next morning, Sima Hongyan handed over the written letter to Shi Jinyan, and transferred a team to escort Shi Jinyan and Xiao Hongying to Tianling Mountain.

Before leaving, Xiao Hongying was reluctant to give up, afraid that if she went back this time, she would never come back. Sima Hongyan was helpless and comforted her: "Don't worry! As long as you do what I say, and listen to Sister Shi's arrangement when you go back, I guarantee that you will be back in a few days. ”

For the convenience of the road, more than 20 women in Shi Jinyan's group covered their faces with veils. Sima Hongyan, Ban Lingruo, and Zhong Liying respectively gave Shi Jinyan special instructions, which allowed them to go on the road.

After Shi Jinyan and Xiao Hongying left, Sima Hongyan and her two sisters returned to the camp and seriously discussed the infiltration method against the envoys of the four countries. Subsequently, in the afternoon of the same day, the three of them went directly to the palace and reported to Emperor Yanzhen.

However, after entering the palace, only Sima Hongyan could go to the imperial study, and Ban Lingruo and Zhong Liying stayed at the palace gate and waited. After waiting for more than two hours, the sky was getting dark, and Sima Hongyan came out of the palace.

As soon as they met, Ban Lingruo couldn't wait to ask Sima Hongyan: "Sister, what did the emperor say?" ”

Sima Hongyan pulled the two younger sisters into the car, and when the carriage marched, he said to them: "There is nothing wrong with our plan, the emperor has approved it." However, there are some things that the emperor needs to help us arrange, because what the emperor means is that even the prince in charge of the post house guard does not need to know. Therefore, the emperor has to think of another way, so that we can wait until tomorrow to act according to the plan.

After going back in a while, Fourth Sister, you will gather the Ten Red Sleeves, and we will make a detailed deployment. This is important, but it also has a certain danger, and we must be prepared not to slip through the cracks. ”

Zhong Liying nodded yes.

Ban Lingruo asked curiously, "Why didn't the emperor let the prince in charge of the guard know?" We are acting within their defense, and the post house is surrounded by our Yanling Janissaries, so if there is any misunderstanding, won't it be troublesome? ”

Sima Hongyan said: "I don't know the emperor's intentions, maybe he wants to see how far our women's army can go!" ”

Back at the Hongyan military camp, Zhong Liying immediately summoned the Ten Red Sleeves to come. Because there was a team to escort Shi Jinyan, it didn't take long for the remaining nine captains to gather in Sima Hongyan's Chinese army tent.

Ten Red Sleeves had long heard that the women's army was going to take action, although they didn't know what the task was, they still couldn't hide the excitement in their hearts, and everyone's eyes were flashing with eagerness.

For the first time, there was a place for the Hongyan Army, in fact, Sima Hongyan couldn't help but be excited in his heart, and at the same time full of worries. After all, it was the first time for the female army to be dispatched, and the other party was an envoy from various countries, so it was a risky challenge for the female soldiers who did not have any experience.

Sima Hongyan racked his brains to fully consider the possible situations and what other links might be overlooked. Not only her, but Ban Lingruo and Zhong Liying were in a similar situation, and there was no rest in their minds. Now that Shi Jinyan is not here, the three sisters have thought about everything they can think of and what they can't think of. Just to minimize the risk.

Sima Hongyan told the nine captains in detail about the mission to be carried out this time, and told them his plan completely. In order to facilitate the deployment, Sima Hongyan took out the map of the capital and the maps of the four post houses and spread them on the table.

As soon as he heard that the target of the surveillance was the envoys of the four countries, he had to obtain their confidential information. In addition to being surprised, Ten Red Sleeves was also a little nervous, but he didn't expect that his first action would be such a big target.

Sima Hongyan comforted everyone: "What are you afraid of? They are ordinary people like us, and they don't have three heads and six arms, so they have nothing to worry about. Besides, I will never put my people in danger in all things! ”

The commander is not afraid, what else is there to fear. Ten Red Sleeves happily stepped forward and looked at the map on the table in a circle.
