Sigh on a moonlit night, Hu does not return Chapter 392 The camp is on fire, and it is killed in public
The rear army continued to advance, still not at a fast pace.
The carriage was bumpy, and Ye Zhiwei leaned lazily on the mat.
Xiaolian sat on the side, holding back a smile, and peeked at Tsing Yi from time to time with a stiff back and sitting upright.
The autumn wind was very cold, but at this time, Tsing Yi was sweating hotly.
Not to mention that with his identity, he can't ride in the same car with the princess at all, just because there is a difference between men and women, if the prince knows about it...... Somehow, Tsing Yi remembered the miserable appearance of those people when they ran two hundred laps on the school field in the capital.
He couldn't help but shudder.
Ye Zhiwei looked at ease and said in a low voice: "How did the people you arrested yesterday go?" ”
Speaking of business, Tsing Yi's expression eased slightly, "Sure enough, that person was planted by the rebels, trying to arrest you to blackmail the prince." ”
Ye Zhiwei frowned slightly, "So it's easy for them to get mixed into the barracks." ”
"Because the rebels were originally in collusion with the local government." Tsing Yi looked at her face cautiously, as if she was afraid of scaring her, "According to the judgment of my subordinates, there are likely to be people from them in the rear army." ”
Ye Zhiwei bowed, "I think so too." ”
Tsing Yi was surprised, this kind of thing, if it were replaced by other women, she would have been frightened and white-faced, the enemy in the secret is the most terrifying, no one wants to live under someone else's knife every day, this invisible pressure is the most terrifying.
"The kid called the bucket, you'd better send someone to keep an eye on him." Ye Zhiwei pondered.
"His subordinates have sent secret guards to follow him." Tsing Yi replied, but in her heart she thought that you were only fourteen, and you actually called others "child", but looking at her leisurely posture leaning on the mat, her calm expression was somewhat similar to that of Nanwang Shizi.
"I don't know how many people are in charge of the rear army?" Ye Zhiwei asked.
"There is one coach and two lieutenants."
"All of them are staring." Ye Zhiwei paused word by word, "If my guess is right, it is likely that we are in the wolf's den now." ”
Tsing Yi's eyes instantly shot a fierce color, "The princess means ......"
"If the rebels can collude with the government, why can't they have contact with the generals in the army?" Ye Zhiwei rested her head on her elbow, "The prince must have been prepared for a long time, otherwise he wouldn't have sent you to follow me." ”
Tsing Yi said, "I'm ashamed." ”
The two discussed in the carriage for a full hour, and even the guards accompanying them outside did not notice when Tsing Yi had quietly left the carriage.
When she camped again at night, there were many fewer guards outside Ye Zhiwei's tent, and Tsing Yi came over to symbolically check the second post and never showed up again.
In the camp, quietly.
In the darkness, an eagle falcon perched on top of the carriage, silently staring at the surrounding movements.
At the time of the third watch, when the tents were at their deepest, even the people on night duty in the camp nodded and dozed off.
Suddenly, there was a fire in the camp, and someone shouted: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”
In the chaos, the sergeants hurriedly picked up their weapons, and when they left the tent, they saw only a piece of fire, and they couldn't tell the difference between the east and the west, and they couldn't even figure out who the enemy was.
At this moment, someone suddenly shouted, "The grain and grass are on fire!" ”
Many soldiers went to put out the fire with buckets in their hands.
There was chaos in the camp.
The fire was out of control by the north wind, and several tents next to it were also on fire.
In the midst of the chaos, a soldier with sharp eyes suddenly pointed to the center of the camp and said, "Oh no, the princess's tent is also on fire!" ”
Only then did the group realize that the tent in the middle of the camp had caught fire at some point.
Some people put out fires, some people shouted for enemy attacks, but most of them were busy for a long time, but they didn't even see a shadow of the enemy.
The fire burned for half an hour, and by daybreak even the wagons carrying grain and grass had turned to ashes.
In the center of the camp, the princess's tent was almost burned out.
When the commander of the camp rushed to the camp, he saw a dozen prisoners kneeling in the open space of the camp.
The boss's eyes shrank, and it was the guards under the prince of Nanwang who were holding the prisoners.
"They're ......" the boss strode forward, his gaze sweeping over the men's faces.
"Boss Qiqi, it was a few of them who set the fire last night." A guard said.
The corners of the boss's mouth twitched, "Are you mistaken, where are they rebels, they are clearly the sergeants in our battalion!" ”
"The subordinates will not be mistaken, they were the ones who set fire to the grain and grass last night."
The boss turned his head to look at the princess's tent, and his face immediately showed a panicked look, "...... I wonder if the princess is safe? ”
"Coach Lao is worried, and the princess is fine." The Guards replied.
The boss frowned, "The tents are burned like this, the princess must have been frightened a lot, your task is to protect the princess, and these people will be handed over to me." ”
As soon as he waved his hand, the soldiers below rushed up to take the captured captive away.
"Wait!" Suddenly, a female voice came from the crowd.
Everyone looked up in unison, and saw the crowd parting, and out of it came a woman of fourteen or fifteen years old, covered in black animal wool, and her black eyes were as bright as grapes on the shelf after the rain.
"I've seen the princess." All the guards present bowed their hands in unison.
When the boss saw Ye Zhiwei come out, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly settled down and said: "The princess is fortunate to be safe and sound, and the affairs in the camp are still left to me to deal with. ”
Ye Zhiwei ignored the boss, but walked straight to the bound captives and called: "Tsing Yi." ”
"The subordinates are here." Tsing Yi walked out of the crowd and stood with his hands over.
"What is the crime of arson in the barracks and destruction of military rations?"
"Kill!" Tsing Yi said loudly.
Ye Zhiwei nodded and said lightly, "Then let's cut it." ”
Everyone was stunned, they all looked at the commander, and before the commander could speak, they saw the dozen or so guards draw their long swords at their waists and quickly slash the prisoners in front of them to the ground.
The men fell to the ground before they could even cry out, their eyes wide open until they died, and they could not believe that they were so dead.
"You ......," the boss trembled with anger, "how can you execute without permission!" ”
"The subordinates are acting on orders, how can they be said to be executed without authorization?" Tsing Yi was undaunted and argued.
"Don't forget, who's the boss here!"
"By the way, don't say it, Lord Boss, I almost forgot about ......" Ye Zhiwei suddenly sneered, "We also captured a few rebels last night." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw four guards push two men with black cloths on their heads in front of her.
"They are ......"
"They took advantage of the fire at night to come into the tent and stab me." Ye Zhiwei stared at the coach with a good gaze, "I want to ask the boss to get an idea and see how to deal with them?" ”
Ye Zhiwei smiled and looked at the coach with cold sweat on his forehead and sideburns.
The two men with black cloth on their heads writhing desperately, their mouths seemed to be stuffed with something, and their voices were indistinct, but everyone present could still clearly hear them shouting, "Boss, help!" ”
There were a few people with good ears, and even guessed the identities of the two of them by virtue of that voice.
"Could it be a mistake?" In the crowd, someone whispered.
"Our lieutenant ...... How could it be possible to assassinate the princess of the world......"
