Jokes aside, Helan quickly returned to his seriousness and asked, "You and the general are going to the capital, what does Emperor Shu say?" ”

Guan Jiyu shook his head and said, "I didn't enter the palace with me. She remembered Xiang Ju'an's words after drinking that night, and sighed: "This time, the general faced the saint, I'm afraid he suffered a lot. ”

Guan Jiyu looked at Helan Yan and said, "Helan, in the final analysis, it's because of our northern affairs, the border wall, do we really want to continue to build it?" ”

"What did the general say?" Helan picked up a stone casually, drew a few times on the ground, and said, "As long as the general does not order me to build a border wall, I will not stop." ”

He thought for a moment and said, "I know that this makes it difficult for the general to do it in front of He Yiliu, not only the general, but even Emperor Shu and the civil and military officials will face the pressure given by He Yiliu. ”

Guan Jiyu listened silently, Helan Yan's thinking was very bold, his practice of being regarded by everyone as "unkind" and "betraying friends", even if he was spurned by thousands of people, he still persevered to the end.

Helan Yan's voice was soft, but Guan Jiyu could feel the firmness in his heart.

He said: "Ji Yu, this Yanjiang promenade, you know how difficult it was when we laid it down at the beginning. We guard the rivers and mountains, and we must not let the territory in our hands be divided into the slightest pool. Think about it, the general has been stationed in the north for many years, and only now has he taken the Yanjiang Corridor, this is his face, if we lose the Yanjiang Corridor, isn't it a slap in the face? ”

Eastern Border.

Since Han Zhen arrived at the eastern camp, he often walked around in five or six people, and in the name of assisting the general to inspect the corners and corners of this turbulent area.

Jiang Yingnian didn't care what his purpose was, Han Zhen couldn't stop him if he wanted to inspect, so he simply followed him every step of the way.

At the beginning, wherever Han Zhen went, Jiang Yingnian followed.

Within a few days, Jiang Yingnian found out that this Han Zhen was just a vain name, all his actions were like pretentiousness, and he would catch all the faces he didn't know at the border gates.

Seeing that Han Zhen often mistakenly arrested the local homeless, Jiang Yingnian said speechlessly: "Lord Han, you catch so many homeless people for me every day, can you give me a reward?" My eastern army is already limited in food and grass, and if you catch these irrelevant people, I still have to take care of food and drink, I'm afraid it won't work if it goes on like this, right? ”

Han Zhen was dismissed by Jiang Yingnian, and he still pretended to be calm, but in order to be familiar with everything here, he still couldn't go out to inspect every day.

After following him for a few days, Jiang Yingnian didn't bother to spy on him anymore.

On this day, Jiang Yingnian was dealing with trivial matters in the army, and saw Han Zhen swaggering into the lobby and pouring himself a cup of tea with great vigour.

Jiang Yingnian put down the brush in his hand, glanced at him, and said, "Lord Han came back quite early today?" You've finished all this eastern part of the world? ”

Han Zhen continued to add tea to himself, and said mysteriously: "When I catch a big fish, I will naturally close the net." ”

Big fish? Jiang Yingnian didn't care, and asked casually, "Who did you arrest today?" Don't catch the wrong one again, let others think that our eastern army will only play this kind of game of catching people all day long. ”

"Hmph." Han Zhen sneered and said, "It's not wrong, Lord Jiang will go and see it in person?" ”

Han Zhen's tone was extremely confident, and Jiang Yingnian couldn't help but be curious, what kind of "big fish" did this guy catch to make him so arrogant?

So he put down the work in his hand and followed Han Zhen to see the "big fish".

Although it was not yet summer at this time, the weather in the east was getting hotter and hotter, and Han Zhen didn't know when he built a cage, about one person high, and placed it at the back of the camp.

There was no shade on all sides of the cage, and it was exposed to the sun.

"Lord Jiang, please see—" Han Zhen made a "please" gesture.

Jiang Yingnian stepped forward, and her eyes fell on a young girl lying in the cage, her body was already scarred, and even her clothes were torn to the point that she didn't look good.

The girl was curled up, basking in the sun, unconscious.

He raised his eyebrows, turned his head and asked Han Zhen: "Lord Han, don't tell me, this is the 'big fish' you keep saying?" This is clearly a young girl, you must be too heavy, right? ”

Han Zhen shook his head slightly, picked up a branch on the ground, and poked it at the girl in the cage, and the girl was poked so rudely that her body moved slightly.

"Lord Jiang, look." Han Zhen squatted down and gently brushed away the hair sticking to the girl's face, as if slowly opening a treasure.

"Lord Jiang has been in the northern border pass before, I'm afraid he is familiar with this kind of appearance, right?"

Jiang Yingnian couldn't help frowning, he was disgusted by Han Zhen's frivolous movements, so he walked to his side, and was about to stop the movement in his hand, but when he saw the exposed face, he was stunned.

A slender chin, deep eyes, and a high nose.

It is the unique appearance of the lonely people.

Qu Yin......

It's a chant!

Jiang Yingnian was shocked, he let her go that day and let her go back to Guyi, who would have expected that she would run away to this eastern region alone?!

It's just that it's still unclear whether Han Zhen knows her identity.

Jiang Yingnian's face was not shocked, and she pretended to be calm: "I thought it was something?" It's really a girl from a lonely family, but in terms of appearance, it's still a little worse. ”

Han Zhen smiled and said, "When I caught this woman, the first thing that came to my mind was you, Lord Jiang, I thought that you would prefer this type of woman in the north after staying in the north for a long time." He looked at the girl in the cage carefully, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that Lord Jiang has a high vision and can't look down on this gift, so I have to take it for myself." ”

Jiang Yingnian teased: "Lord Han is really good, he has a unique taste, and when he meets a foreign girl casually, he makes me think?" ”

He said this on his lips, but he didn't know how disgusting Han Zhen was in his heart.

Han Zhen looked dignified, but he didn't expect it to be such a wolf in human skin!

Clothed beasts, really well-dressed beasts!

Jiang Yingnian continued to probe tentatively: "But today Lord Han is just an ordinary girl, maybe she is only living near this eastern True Foolish Country, why do you have to fight so hard?" What does it have to do with the ordinary people who advocate rebellion is the middle and upper echelons of the Lonely Dynasty and the Lonely Army? ”

Han Zhen smiled and said: "Everyone in the world knows that the Lone Clan is my old enemy, and everyone will be punished." If we can catch the lonely people, even ordinary people, we should make men slaves and women prostitutes, I don't think there is anything wrong with that. ”

Hearing him say this, Jiang Yingnian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that Han Zhen didn't know that this was the princess of the Guyi royal family.

It's just that there are many people in the army, and they are basically people who have fought together in the north, even if Han Zhen doesn't know, it is difficult to guarantee that others will not talk nonsense when they see it.

Jiang Yingnian yawned, squatted down and reached out to pinch Qu Yin's chin, looked left and right at her face, and sighed: "It's just that this little face is too dirty, and the clothes on the body are not clean, it should look much better when washed." ”

He looked back at Han Zhen with a wicked smile and said, "Didn't Lord Han just say that he wanted to give it to me?" If you think about it carefully, I haven't opened meat for a long time since I arrived at the border camp, so why don't you give it to me to try it? ”

Han Zhen naturally did not refuse, he knew that Jiang Yingnian was not easy to mess with, after he was ordered to come to the eastern camp to inspect, Jiang Yingnian never gave him a good face, he made things difficult everywhere, and it was often the connotation of yin and yang weirdness, Han Zhen felt uncomfortable, but for Xiang Ju'an's face, it was really okay.

Now that I have such a "treasure", although I can't keep it for myself, it would be a good thing if I could please Jiang Yingnian because of this.

Han Zhen's face was full of grace, and he reluctantly agreed to give this lonely girl to Jiang Yingnian.

Jiang Yingnian pretended to be impatient and said, "In that case, please open the cage quickly, so that I can hug the beauty as soon as possible." ”

He stared around, and whispered to Han Zhen: "There are some people in this barracks who don't ask for wives, and there are such good things, I don't have to bring them back sooner, I'm afraid that I will have a lot of dreams at night, and I will be remembered." ”

A hint of understanding flashed on Han Zhen's face, he is also a man, he knows too well the changes in Jiang Yingnian's attitude before and after, and nothing else can win over Jiang Yingnian, which can always be obtained.

Han Zhen opened the cage without hesitation, Jiang Yingnian stepped forward, bent down to pick up the weak girl on the ground, and left in front of Han Zhen.

Entering the room, Jiang Yingnian carefully put Qu Yin on the couch, found a handkerchief to wet in the basin, and before he could turn around, he was pressed against a cold utensil behind his waist.

He raised his hands and turned around slowly, Qu Yin was sweating profusely on his forehead, his hair was sticking to his cheeks, and the small braids that were originally combed on his head had all been loosened and unkempt.

Her face was pale, and her eyes, which had been very agile, were now full of red bloodshots, and she was looking at him in horror. She was holding a hairpin in her hand, which was shaking uncontrollably because she was too nervous.

"It's me." Jiang Yingnian said to her calmly.

Qu Yin didn't seem to react, his mouth was slightly open, he couldn't speak for a long time, and he didn't put down the only weapon in his hand.

Jiang Yingnian said: "Qu Yin, it's me, Jiang Yingnian." ”

When she heard the words clearly, the horror in her eyes gradually dissipated, and her trembling hands seemed to be drained of their strength and drooped weakly.

Qu Yin tugged at the corners of his mouth, and said in a hoarse voice: "General Jiang, don't come unharmed." ”

When Jiang Yingnian saw Qu Yin now, it was impossible for her to feel uncomfortable, she was a pampered and agile royal princess, but she was worse than a beggar at the moment.

He frowned and said, "Didn't you let you go back?" Why not go back? ”

Qu Yin asked rhetorically: "My brother Wang is no longer here, what am I going to do when I go back?" The Lonely Royal Family is already a plate of scattered sand, where is my foothold? ”

Jiang Yingnian was speechless, and only muttered for a while: "Then you shouldn't come to this place, this is the most dangerous place now." ”

The battle between the two armies would have been a matter of death and injury, and he was worthy of anyone, but as soon as he saw Qu Yin, he felt unspeakably uneasy.

Qu Yin is not a vicious person, she is ignorant of the world, and she should not have run to the cruel and ruthless battlefield.

He should not be thought to be a good man.

Who can be soft-hearted on this battlefield? He Jiang Yingnian came with a family feud, how could he let go easily in the face of the lonely king Qu Mo?

Jiang Yingnian handed her the handkerchief in his hand and said, "Wipe it." ”

Qu Yin didn't refuse, she took the wet handkerchief and rubbed it vigorously on her body, the dried blood on her neck was wiped away, and the small wounds were exposed on the white skin one by one.

Jiang Yingnian didn't look over, and said softly: "You will stay here for the next few days, and after these days, I will find a way to send you away." ”
