Chapter 324: Letters
"Master, master!" Early in the morning, Zhao Yulong practiced all night, and was just about to lie down and have a good rest, when he was disturbed by Ellie's anxious voice.
To be honest, Ellie has been doing a good job these days. Especially sweeping the floor, which Zhao Yulong usually doesn't do very well, she can do all of them very well. At least the current ground is cleaner than Zhao Yulong's own sweeping.
And this girl is also smart, she knows when she should look for herself when there is something and when she shouldn't bother herself. And it was the first time to bother herself like today, but Zhao Yulong knew that she would be in such a hurry, and there must be something that would do so.
So he hurriedly got up: "What's wrong Ellie, is there anything urgent?"
"Yes, yes, Your Majesty's letter, Your Highness, take a look!" Saying that, Ellie handed a letter to Zhao Yulong, and she stood aside and waited.
"Okay, I'll take a look. Yinhu's letter, obviously the content on it is very important, so Zhao Yulong read it very seriously.
But it said, 'Brother, see the letter as you see me.' This time I used the letter to find you because this matter is urgent, and it will definitely be too late for you to come to Bart City and then go over, so I hope you will send troops now, this time the matter is not simple. It is advisable to bring a few thousand soldiers with you, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with.
Here's what happened: The Valea region has always been a place of contention between us and Warit, but now a new force has emerged there. But we don't know which side it was, and the army sent by Warit was wiped out. Now our army is almost completely wiped out over there, and there is no information about the enemy's movements ahead, only that they are very good at using their troops. Basically, before this side could support, that side was wiped out.
Therefore, the soldiers who delivered the news to my side did not fight against them, but only saw the standards of the other side in the wreckage of the battlefield. Therefore, I do not have all the information of their battles, including their numbers, and as far as the eye can see, none of our lords in the whole of Catalea have the ability to deal with such a mysterious enemy.
Therefore, I can only look for you now, because you and I are brothers, and I know a little bit about your personality and strength. If you can win a battle with 500 men, and you can make Duke Walker angry with crutches, you must be capable. So the only one I can trust now is you, and now you are the only one who can do my bidding.
Although this battle has been a huge loss for you and me, the Valerya region is rich in magic guide stones, and if we can win that area, it means that we have the lifeblood of the entire country. After all, these mineral areas are in your hands, but you will definitely be able to develop quickly, and that is when we will abolish Duke Walker. ’
After reading this letter, Zhao Yulong also understood that this matter was indeed not simple. It seems that Yinhu wants to take advantage of the fact that the enemy has just marched there, and the situation is still unstable, and he may be able to take it over, so he is so anxious to ask himself to lead his troops over.
It's just that this silver amber can't help but remember a little too much! I didn't even write my name or time to write the letter, and if I hadn't recognized his handwriting, it would have been considered a forgery.
But now that the situation is serious, it's naturally not the time to care about this. In this way, Zhao Yulong directly called Jing Rui and the others directly to the main hall through sound transmission to discuss the matter together.
This sound transmission technique is naturally fast and efficient, and now Zhao Yulong's butt is not hot on the top of the main hall when he sees Jingrui, Huyun and others coming here. At this time, Ellie was beating Zhao Yulong's back, and now she was seen by Jing Rui.
"Zhao Yulong, this is?" said Jing Rui, pointing to Ellie, who was hammering Zhao Yulong's shoulder with his hand.
"This is a maid, and you know, I am not very good at sweeping the floor, so when I saw that she was pitiful, I stayed and swept the floor. After saying that, he turned to Ellie and said, "We have you here to go down first!"
"Hmm!" said that, Ellie walked down slowly, and when she passed by Jing Rui, Jing Rui kept looking at her for a long time.
Until she left, Jing Rui was still looking in that direction. In the end, it was Zhao Yulong who woke him up with a few dry coughs, and now he turned his head: "Zhao Yulong, I am so anxious to say that there is a big matter to discuss, I don't know what the matter is?"
"This matter is very serious, maybe you have heard some rumors, anyway, you can see for yourself!" said Zhao Yulong and threw the letter in his hand to Jingrui and them.
They ended up with their heads together looking at what was written on the piece of paper.
"Why are there wars again? How long has it stopped! I still want to sleep in? I have to get up early in a big battle, which is really troublesome. As he spoke, Hu Yun deliberately yawned.
"What do you call again, it seems that only Meng Liang and I participated in the war last time, you didn't come along! It's been half a year, and you actually say it, you can say it. Jing Rui saw that Hu Yun looked like he wanted to retreat back, so he hurriedly said.
"Get rid of it, Brother Rui, I didn't have a good rest in those days, do you know how tired it is to supervise the construction of the city wall? Although it is indeed very convenient to have spiritual power, but it is also very tiring, at least you can see that I am hungry and thin now. As he spoke, Hu Yun deliberately pointed to his arm.
"Not necessarily, your face is at least bigger than before, and so are your hands. If you don't want your muscles to turn into fat, I think you'd better go with us. ”
"Although it is urgent this time, we can't go out with all of them, and we have to leave a few people behind. Zhao Yulong's speech interrupted the conversation between Jingrui and Huyun.
Now when Hu Yun heard this, he was like grabbing life-saving food and grass, and hurriedly said to Zhao Yulong: "It's better to be Brother Long! Sure enough, it's towards me, I'll just say! I'm so pitiful, Brother Long, how can you not help me?"
However, the reality is that when God closes a door for you, He opens a window for you, but behind that window is a wall.
At this time, Zhao Yulong didn't wait for Huyun to be happy, so he said directly: "But Huyun, you kid have to follow." We have no one to know about the enemy's situation, and we need you to check it. Yang Zheng, Xiangyu, you stay. Jing Rui will wait for you to transfer 3,000 infantry, 800 cavalry, 400 archers, and 500 mages. Of course, bring those dozens of priests with them, although they are not really useful, but it is better to give the soldiers a little faith than nothing. ”
"Well, then that's it!Let's go first!" Saying that, Yang Zheng and Weng Xiangyu left first, while Jingrui and Huyun remained here.
"What are you two doing here, do you want to grab lunch with me? I tell you! I just have so much food, I don't have enough food to eat, you don't have to think about it. ”
Jing Rui and Hu Yun naturally understood that Zhao Yulong was joking: "In this case, we will definitely rob you." ”
"Yes, I'd love to see if you're skilled at grabbing food, or if I'm skilled. Forget no kidding, let's get down to business!"
"Brother Long, I just saw that letter, and the enemy army looks very powerful. Is it really possible for our magic group to leave them? I'm a little worried!"
"Yes, although the enemy army is strong, but there must be someone stationed here, right? Therefore, it is a good thing to leave the two of them behind. When the time came, a few of us were on the front line, and no one bothered the two of them. As he spoke, Zhao Yulong smiled.
Hu Yun and Jing Rui also smiled, especially Hu Yun smiled the brightest: "Then say so, when we come back, we will be able to be uncles, great!"
"What you're thinking about all day is something that isn't serious. However, the two of them do need some space to get along, and this time we are leaving, which is really a good space for them. Are there any questions now, why don't you leave?"
Jing Rui looked around and said, "Zhao Yulong, in fact, what I want to say is, your maid ......"
"I understand, Brother Rui, you must have taken a fancy to someone else, and you want Brother Long to send you away! Before Jingrui could finish speaking, Hu Yun interrupted him.
But Jing Rui has long been used to all this, after all, it has not been a day or two since he met Hu Yun, and it is easy to get used to it: "I mean, she is very wrong!"
"Really, how can you see it?" Seeing that Jing Rui's face became serious, Zhao Yulong also became serious.
"You should be able to see that she behaves like a nobleman, but now she is willing to be your maid, don't you think it's strange?"
She said that her family lineage, because of the failure of the political struggle, their family was slaughtered, leaving her to be sent as a slave. I bought it from a slave trader, who by the way it seems to be called Rabuda. ”
"She's pathetic, then, but you should be able to see that there's something wrong with the way she looks at you. One of them, very ...... I don't know how to describe the eyes, anyway, she's definitely not a good person, I think you'd better be careful. I think there's something wrong with her, and she's probably going to kill you later. ”
"I see, you better go down! I'll think about what you say, and I think it's ungentlemanly to speak ill of her in front of a girl. Saying that, Zhao Yulong waved his hand and motioned for Jingrui to retreat.
Now that Jingrui turned around and saw Ellie standing behind him, he naturally felt embarrassed and went down with Huyun. It's just that he didn't plan to finish this matter, and his suspicions about Ellie naturally won't be eliminated.
"It looks like I've annoyed the general, and I don't know what I'm doing wrong. As soon as Jingrui left, Ellie cried in front of Zhao Yulong.
To be honest, since she was accepted by Zhao Yulong a few days ago, she has been smiling every day and has never cried, but now she is crying, it is inevitable that something is different.
"You haven't done anything wrong, but you should also understand that after so many years of life, who wouldn't be targeted for no reason? As he spoke, Zhao Yulong had already picked up a book and read it.
"Thank you, master, you are so nice, I believe that the girl who can get your love must be very happy. It's just that I wonder if the master believes the words of the general, he is your good brother, I think you should believe him. With that, Ellie wiped tears from her face.
At this time, Zhao Yulong put down the book in his hand and stood up: "This is not necessarily, I don't believe anyone now, even if the person standing in front of me to speak, I don't necessarily believe him." I truly believe in myself, I believe in what I see and what I feel intuitively. ”
"Well, what did the master's instincts tell him now?" Ellie wanted to know. ”
"My intuition, are you sure you want to know?" said that, Zhao Yulong had already walked to her side.
"Hmm! I want to know. To be honest, it was the first time for Zhao Yulong to get close to Ellie, and now that she saw Zhao Yulong so close, she unconsciously lowered her head.
"Well, I'll be honest, don't be scared. My gut tells you that you've done something sorry for me. Saying that, Zhao Yulong's face suddenly became serious.
And Ellie's heartbeat also accelerated a lot at this time, although she didn't know what Zhao Yulong said, but she always felt that something was discovered by Zhao Yulong.
But she still didn't say it, and at this time, Zhao Yulong put a hand on her head: "Silly girl, look at what time it is, you haven't made my breakfast yet, do you want to starve me to death?"
"Master, is this the matter you talking about?" Feeling the warmth of the big palm, and hearing Zhao Yulong's words, Ellie only relaxed now.
"Or do you think? Is there anything in the world that is more sorry for a man than to make him hungry? I've been waiting for this breakfast for a long time, so you can go down and make it for me now, and send it here, understand?"
"Understood, master. Ellie was like a little girl, as if she had been released.
Zhao Yulong didn't pay attention to her anymore, but continued to look at his book and read: "'It's not his person who hears from afar, and he doesn't see it from close'." Sure enough, this person sometimes stands in front of him, and he may not always speak the truth. ”
Outside the main hall, Jingrui and Huyun didn't go far. Now Jing Rui is not leaving, but he is planning to go back: "No, the more I think about it, the more wrong it becomes, there must be something wrong with that woman, I must make it clear to Zhao Yulong, I must not let Zhao Yulong fall for her!"
As he spoke, he walked towards the main hall, but was stopped by Hu Yun: "Brother Rui, calm down, calm down, Brother Long has his own measure, you don't have to worry." Let's go and recruit the soldiers according to Brother Long's request! It's a pity, we only have a total of 7,000 soldiers, and now we have to transfer 4,000, and I don't know how many people can come back alive. ”
Although Hu Yun tried his best to divert Jing Rui's attention, in fact it was useless, Jing Rui's mind was still thinking of that thing: "Zhao Yulong, he is measured, he will protect that woman, no matter what I said to her just now, Zhao Yulong is helping her exonerate, obviously Zhao Yulong is confused by her." I have to go and sober him up, or something will happen. ”
As he spoke, he was going to break free from Hu Yun's hand and continue to walk inside. But Hu Yun still stopped: "Brother Rui! I think it's better to forget it! You have to believe Brother Long, believe Brother Long! You don't know when he did things, when he made a mistake, so don't worry, it's okay." And to be honest, the other person is just an ordinary maid, you don't have to care so much, do you?
Jing Rui originally wanted to go in, but now Hu Yun has been pulling him in, and now he is not easy to use force, so now he has to shake his hand and walk outside: "You know a fart! It's strange that you can see it like this! That woman definitely has a problem, which maid have you seen who has only been with the master for a few days, and there is a light in her eyes?"
"That can only show that Brother Long is handsome and attractive! Plus Brother Long's status is high, and his aura is not bad, it's normal for someone to like that! Speaking of Jingrui, you said that I slapped Brother Long's ass like this, would he appreciate me very much?" said Hu Yun and smiled.
"No, he'll just treat you as a sycophant. In addition, do you think that what she sees is love? What I see is greed, she seems to care about something on Zhao Yulong, or she cares about Zhao Yulong's life, in short, her eyes are wrong. By the way, the slave trader, maybe he knows something about this woman, and Hu Yun will go over to me. ”
Saying that, Jing Rui ran towards the slave market with Huyun. Although it had been a few days now, Jing Rui still hoped that the slave traders there had not left, so that he could find Rabuda, or ask for some information about what Rabuda was thinking.
At this time, in the main hall, Ellie was walking towards Zhao Yulong with a handkerchief and a small casserole. This is an oriental dish, which Zhao Yulong taught her to make, but she learned very quickly, and she was only able to make it in a few days, but she didn't know how it tasted.
After all, in this realm, eating is basically eating taste, and the stomach will not be hungry because of this, so there are naturally greater requirements for taste.
"Well, it's so good, there's an ingredient I haven't seen before, and it looks like you've added it to all your meals to make them taste better. Can you tell me what this thing is? I want to make and eat. ”
"No! If I tell my master that he can make his own food that tastes like this, then won't I have no value for my work?
"Don't say it! You must have something to ask me for something so good today! Tell me, what is it?"
"This ...... Actually, there's nothing! I'm just ...... I just want to follow my master and watch my master fight. ”
"That's all?"
"Yes, that's it, is it okay?" said Ellie, who cautiously raised her head and looked at Zhao Yulong.
"I thought it was a big deal, since you were willing to follow, then just follow. ”
"Thank you, master!" Saying that, Ellie planned to come over and give Zhao Yulong a hug, but was stopped by Zhao Yulong.
"Men and women don't kiss, not to mention that you are still a girl, self-respecting!"
