Chapter 196: Daughter

Back on the shore, Baek Joong first went to see Ying Shu and the others.

The little girl closed her eyes tightly and leaned quietly in Yingshu's arms, not daring to see what was happening.

"Are you alright?" Bai Zhong asked.

"It's fine!"

Ying Shu shook her head and said, "They can't help me and the child." ”

It's okay.

Bai Zhong looked at himself a little embarrassed, he also went into the water to fight together just now, and he was soaked, but he didn't care too much, so he asked the soldiers of the Qin army to gather first, and then sent people to look everywhere to see if there were any traces of the enemy on the shore, and if there were any other clues.

Jing Yu was even more embarrassed, his previous demeanor was all gone, and when he saw that Bai Zhong and they were fine, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise the two countries would go to war.

"Childe, how do you explain tonight's incident?"

Bai Zhong pointed the finger directly at Jing Yu.

This matter is inseparable from their Chu State.

Jing Yu didn't know how to explain, and said helplessly: "General Bai, please calm your anger, you see that I was almost killed, I guess there must be someone who doesn't want the general to go to Shouchun, and deliberately does this, I will definitely find out about this matter." ”

Ying Shu pretended to be curious and asked, "Is there anyone else who doesn't want us to Shouchun?" ”

Jing Yu nodded and said: "Naturally, there is, don't hide it from the two of you, now in Shouchun, there are the main battle faction and the main peace faction, the king wants peace, but there are also people who want to destroy the peace and want to start a war with the Qin State, these people don't want to see the general and the princess come to Shouchun smoothly." ”

Bai Zhong listened to the explanation and did not continue to embarrass him.

"Alright, let's find a place to rest first!"

Now except for Ying Shu and the little girl, everyone else is soaked, plus at night, the mountain breeze is slightly cool, and it is easy to get sick if it blows too much, so you have to set up camp as soon as possible to make a fire to keep warm, and then let people go into the water to salvage the sunken materials as much as possible.

The people sent out by Bai Zhong came back quickly, and they said that they could not find anything, there were no other enemies nearby, and there was no trace of the enemy.

"Come back and rest!"

He didn't let anyone check it again.

The enemy does this, and there should be nothing left.

Away from the corpses on the shore, Jing Yu found a flat place, and then asked people to pick up firewood to make a fire to keep warm.

The little girl opened her eyes and looked at Bai Zhong worriedly.

"I'm fine!"

Bai Zhong understood the meaning in her eyes, and said, "You must be very sleepy, let's rest first." ”

"Thank you!"

The little girl said obediently, took out another handkerchief, and wiped the water droplets from Bai Zhong's face.

Ying Shu's heart was happy: "The child is so good." ”

"From now on, she'll be our daughter, okay?"

Bai Zhong said softly.

The little girl seemed to understand the word "daughter", nodded happily, and then snuggled into Yingshu's arms and quickly fell asleep.

She has experienced the death of her mother during the day and this kind of thing at night, and she is already very tired.

Jing Yu on the other side still didn't dare to be careless, and strengthened the defense near the camp, as for which family in the Chu State did this, even he had to kill himself, and let people find out when he returned to Shouchun.

Seeing the neatness of the Qin army today, he felt that he could not be the enemy of the Qin State, and he must not go to war.

——

After dawn.

In the city of Geyang, in a compound.

Zhao Feng just got up, walked out of the door, and was about to stretch, but saw that Wu Shu was a little nervous, and a little expectant walking around, looking at his expression, as if he was thinking about last night's events and had not slept all night.

"Brother Wu, don't be in a hurry."

Zhao Feng didn't seem to take it to heart, and laughed.

Wu Shu confessed: "I really want that person to die, how can I not be anxious, why hasn't there been any news back?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, someone walked in through the gate, glanced at Zhao Feng, and said, "Childe, all failed!" ”

"What did you say?"

Ushu suddenly jumped up with excitement.

After looking forward to it for a night, how could it suddenly fail.

Zhao Feng didn't react much, and asked lightly, "How to fail?" ”

"They seem to have spotted someone digging a boat underwater in advance, and they reacted quickly."

This person didn't dare to get too close at that time, so he couldn't see the scene of Bai Zhong crossing the river, but just told what he could see and how the Qin army counterattacked, and finally said, "Everyone is dead." ”

Zhao Feng pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "It seems that that person is not easy to kill, Brother Wu, the person you asked me to kill hasn't told me the identity of that person, right?" If you were an ordinary person, you wouldn't have a large number of soldiers around, and you wouldn't have survived my assassination. ”

He had already guessed that those were the envoys of the Qin State, but he didn't know who they were, so he deliberately said this to wait for Wu Shu to continue to confess.

Wu Shu hesitated for a moment and said: "That person is called Bai Zhong, the general of the Qin State, Brother Zhao should have heard his name, but why he came to the Chu State, I don't know." ”

"He's Bai Zhong!"

Zhao Feng was surprised.

Who is Bai Zhong, of course he has heard of it, on the battlefield of destroying the Three Jins, he is in the limelight and famous, and the commander of the attack on Huaiyang is also Bai Zhong, and in the aristocratic circle of Chu recently, basically everyone has heard of Bai Zhong's name.

I didn't expect that the envoy who came to Chu on behalf of Qin would be Bai Zhong.

No wonder the assassination failed.

"Brother Wu, why don't you make it clear!"

Zhao Feng looked angry and said, "What is the difference between assassinating Bai Zhong and looking for death?" ”

Wu Shu knew that he was wrong, and quickly apologized, and then asked, "Do we still have a chance?" If there is, I will write back to my father and lower the price of glass. ”

It could be seen that he really wanted Bai Zhong to die.

"This has to be thought through."

Zhao Feng did not refuse, that is, it was negotiable.

Wu Shu immediately asked people to write a letter back to Xianyang.

In order to kill Bai Zhong, he didn't care about anything else, and he was worried that he would be seen by Wu Lu through the price of the glass, and after experiencing the failure of last night's assassination, he was so anxious that he no longer cared about the consequences of being seen, and just wanted Bai Zhong to die.

What happened at the beginning was his fault, but he didn't think he was wrong.

——

The boats are all gone, and even if Jing Yu can contact the people of the family, it will be difficult to send a large number of ships over in a short time.

They can only walk on foot.

"Childe, where are we going next?"

Bai Zhong asked.

Jing Yu looked ahead and said, "Go to Anfeng first, buy some carriages to travel, I don't want to walk anymore." ”

Bai Zhong nodded and said, "It's okay!" ”

He hugged the little girl, followed Jing Yu and the others, and continued to hurry.

After walking for more than a day, they came to the city of Anfeng.

As soon as he entered, Jing Yu immediately went to find a reverse journey (hotel, inn) to rest.

There are so many of them that a counter-brigade can't live there, so Jing Yu can only let some people be stationed outside the city, and then through his own identity, he can contact the county order here, take care of everything, and live in smoothly.

"Tired or not?"

Bai Zhong asked softly.

The little girl shook her head slightly, when she was a refugee, she was much more tired than now, and said softly: "Can I call you Ah Weng?" I...... I've never met Awen. ”

"Absolutely!"

Bai Zhong hugged her dotingly.

"Awen!"

In the past day or so, the little girl has learned a lot of Bai Zhong's Guanzhong dialect, looked at Ying Shu, and said, "Mother! ”

Mother!

As soon as the two words were shouted, her eyes turned red, and she thought of her dead mother again.

"Don't cry, don't cry!"

Yingshu hugged her and comforted her softly.
