Chapter 70: Examination and Identification
"Back to the general, the soldiers are assembled and can set off." This time, Chu Zhaonan was followed by a lieutenant general with good skills and agility enough, and he still looked quite tough and strong, and his first impression was not bad.
"Well, let's go." Chu Zhaonan held the handsome flag and danced in the wind, the soldiers made a loud sound, and the whole army moved forward. This time the action was just a simple patrol, and there was no need for a big battle, so they just assembled in the suburbs, and then the three armies marched.
If it was the North, he might be able to figure out who that person really was, the opponent who had been giving him a headache for so long. That another madman who has more connections than the Nine Princes.
Murong Zhi stood on the city gate, with the palace wall deep behind him. Lixia followed her, taking a half-step back, her eyes bright. "Lixia, what do you understand?" She was suddenly curious about how much Lixia knew about herself.
She rarely reveals herself to others, and she never deliberately labels herself, but from the time she entered the palace to the present, Lixia has been with her for so long, and she has more or less understood something. She was curious.
"Niangniang is a very gentle person, very kind to everyone she knows, and is not demanding of us, in Lixia's eyes, it is worth following." Lixia's voice was calm, but she knew very well that she had other ideas.
"Please forgive Lixia, Lixia has a request for overreach, I hope Niangniang can agree." Li Xia suddenly walked up to Murong Zhi and knelt down, the tassel pendant on her head danced, and her tense face made her nervousness obvious.
"You stand up and talk first, so I'm not used to it." Lixia's status is the same as that of Yunshuang in the palace, Murong Zhi has no restraint on them, and she manages them more leniently than the lowest-ranking nobles manage their maids. Their freedom is the greatest of all.
"Lixia hopes to be able to call Niangniang 'master'." Lixia's voice was firm, and every word was loud.
"You don't have to follow me to death." Murong Zhi is the one who knows the most, and she also understands what kind of situation she will put herself in if she agrees to Lixia.
"No, the slave really wants to entrust everything to the mother." Li Xia looked at Murong Zhi's refusal and hurriedly spoke out to express her heart. "To put it mildly, if Niangniang leaves the palace in the future, the slaves and maids will be assigned to another master as before, and all the masters in the palace, except for Niangniang, are not worthy of Lixia's service."
In fact, it's easy to find out, Lixia changes hands, no matter which master she meets, she will be bullied in all kinds of ways because she once served Murong Zhi, her road will only be more difficult, and following Murong Zhi, at least she can guarantee that she will not be bullied before she dies, and she can ensure that she will be stable for a lifetime.
"Niangniang, the slave maid has been in the palace for thirteen years, and what should be seen and what should not be seen is also the same. But for so many years, it is the first time for a slave to see a person like Niangniang, who does not blindly pursue power and does not blindly care about Liwei, how can a slave and maid be able to serve Niangniang? The more Lixia spoke, the more emotional she became, and she slowly knelt down again.
"Mother, everyone is going to die. The slave would rather die happily with the mother than slowly become a madman who is not a ghost or a ghost in this deep palace. Lixia made the relationship of interests clear. Both of them understand what's at stake, and they both know it.
All interests can only be fair and reliable when they are laid out in the open.
"Lixia, since you understand it yourself, I don't need to talk about many things. Think about it yourself, I won't accept it for the time being. "Murong Zhi's heart is quite soft, and she is never reluctant. Lixia is also a good girl in her eyes, Jianghu is a crazy existence, she really doesn't want her to get involved.
"Let's go." Turning, the two men left the city wall. Someone stood up from around the corner and watched the two people who left slowly curled the corners of their mouths. All scenarios fit the phrase "the wall has ears", but not everyone remembers this all the time.
Qing Ruiyang's mansion.
"Miss Yunshuang is here, but the queen has something to tell the king?" The moment Qing Ruiyang saw Yunshuang, the whole person was very happy. After he confessed to Murong Zhi, he didn't have a chance to enter the palace, and even if he did, the door of Fenglan Palace would be closed to him forever, and he could only shake his head every time and walk away. Yunshuang's arrival was a symbol of Murong Zhi to him.
"When the prince looks at me, can he only think of the master?" Yun Shuang looked at the Nine Princes, who were dressed in plain clothes and had sword eyebrows, and could only smile bitterly. All the efforts he has made, when he comes to Qing Ruiyang's side, he is still a representative of Murong Zhi.
"Well, what is the girl trying to say? Is it unpleasant to have a falling out with Ah Zhi? Qing Ruiyang didn't know how to answer for a while. Yunshuang's existence and Murong Zhi have never been
It's one, this sentence is so inexplicable.
"No, the prince looked at Yunshuang, doesn't he have a little impression other than the master?" With every word he spit out, Yunshuang's voice trembled a little. It took so much effort for her to see him, and his eyes were full of another person.
"Uh...... Miss Yunshuang is steady, diligent and very good to Ah Zhi. Although it can't be said that Murong Zhi can't be involved, Qing Ruiyang's impression of Yunshuang is really not very prominent.
"Is that all?" When Yunshuang heard his words, she did have a happy element in her heart, her own merits, and she suddenly felt that she was very good.
"What the hell is Miss Yunshuang trying to say? This king really didn't understand. Let's get straight to the point. Qing Ruiyang felt that the trouble for women was here, no one could guess what they were thinking, and if they couldn't grasp the point, they naturally couldn't think of words to pick up.
"Lord Wang, I like you." Yunshuang is also a free and easy woman, she just stood in front of him with her head held high, with a firm face and determination on her face.
Love is very simple in Yunshuang's heart, first of all, you have to break through yourself. As long as you have the courage, then everything else has a bottom tone, and then, step by step, you will get closer to your love, whether there is a result or not, it is a good thing.
"The girl is too careful." Qing Ruiyang didn't even want to call her name at this time, and the word girl replaced all of them. Yunshuang obviously knew that she liked Murong Zhi, and she wanted to come to find herself unhappy.
"Don't you want to know why?" Yunshuang's eyes were full of disappointment, but she still didn't give up.
"From your eyes, you can see that the girl is really tempted, but this king has already made it clear to the queen that he doesn't want to delay the girl's good marriage, so the girl should find another lover." Qing Ruiyang suddenly remembered that when she was talking to Murong Zhi, Yun Shuang was not around, and she didn't know the truth.
"With the master?!" Yun Shuang's beautiful eyes were full of disbelief, and after seeing Qing Ruiyang's affirmative expression, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning. What she heard from Yu Cuiqi was confirmed, but Qing Ruiyang's statement made her even more sad. That pain of the final blow.
"But does the prince know, someone is already coming to kill you because of this." She wasn't stupid enough to expose Liulizhuang, but she also conveyed the same thing about the people Chu Zhaonan sent.
"What's this, this king has been walking the rivers and lakes for so many years, and he has made countless enemies, are you still afraid of a few assassins?" Qing Ruiyang didn't take it to heart. Murong Zhi is a person on the rivers and lakes, and it is normal for someone to cover him to provoke, which can only show that the person he likes is not an ordinary person, which can make him more respectful and attentive.
"Would you rather be hunted down by someone else than me?" Yunshuang was a little angry. Gambling with her with your life, how much you dislike her?!
"The girl is obsessed." Qing Ruiyang saw that there was a faint wetness in her eyes, and a white jade bone fan shook it in her hand. The blue tassels of the lake swayed.
"It has nothing to do with the king's life. It's just that since the girl is also in love, she should also understand, how can this kind of thing be done by herself? This king has never had the slightest thought about the girl, and he also asks Miss Yunshuang to take care of it and serve the master well. "Love and life are two different things, and they can never be equated. Yunshuang was also dizzy, this time he could forgive her, but there would be no future.
"Can't the prince try it with me?" Yunshuang swore that this was the first time she had lowered her voice so much, in her own capacity. She has done all kinds of tasks, and there must be times when she bows her head, but as herself, as Yunshuang, this is the first time in her life.
"Yunshuang, we are all about the same, you and I both know that there is no good result in such compromises, why bother?" Qing Ruiyang looked at her bright eyes, and she was really ruthless to let people drive her out, so she could only advise softly.
"I see." Yunshuang clenched her hands, closed her eyes, and strode out the door.
She is no longer young, no longer like those children who are just beginning to fall in love, reserved and active, in her place, if she can't catch it, she can't catch it, she would rather just watch from the side, and never try another life. That kind of abnormal adventure really doesn't suit her anymore.
It has always been the soul that grows old with love.
Northland.
Chu Zhaonan knew that the soldiers in the north had been stationed on the border for a long time and could not go home, and they were all resentful, but he didn't expect that they would languish to such a point.
On the city wall, the soldiers were unfavorable, the soldiers took a nap, disobeyed the order, and turned a deaf ear. made him feel very angry when he saw it.
"Adjutant General, pass the order, all the officers and soldiers, cut off food for three days, train as usual, and those who slack off will be punished for disobeying military orders, and the general will be responsible for what happens."
After Chu Zhaonan entered the camp, he changed into an ordinary soldier's dress, patrolled the camp one by one, walked around the city wall step by step, and all he saw were sleepy soldiers huddled in the corner, and the more he looked at it, the more angry he became. And so he gave the order when he had entered the main tent. He also directly dismissed the previous deputy general and replaced his own people.
What if you are not convinced? This northern frontier is so uncertain, since he is here, he must get it done before going back. Chu Zhaonan can't produce this kind of waste under his hands.
All the soldiers were a little stunned when they heard the new order, and then they were not convinced. A new patrol envoy, even if he has made meritorious contributions in the war in Mufu, is just a junior official, why should he point fingers at them?
