Holy City.

When Ying's urgent letter came, King Yu was in the early court, and after the morning court was dispersed, he hurried straight to the study.

Ying was very cautious in communicating with him, and there were two exchanges of letters so far, the last time it was mentioned that Qianyun had found those soldiers and horses, and there were a small number of Qianyun's former subordinates, totaling more than 7,000 people. Coupled with Gu Yuanzi's gang who came to him later, as well as the 200 or so people newly recruited by Ying, there are still too few soldiers and horses.

King Yu hurriedly opened the letter, and Ying's ciphertext on the letter said that the number of people is close to nine thousand now, but Qianyun has not returned, but there is only a message to continue training, it is not advisable to be impulsive, and you need to be careful in your actions.

He knew about Qianyun's departure from the school, but it was not her style to return as agreed, and it could be known from Ying's letter that there was no problem with her safety, so there must be something more important holding her back.

In fact, it doesn't matter if they don't go back, the current situation is grim, the sixth brother has already sent someone to secretly investigate them, although Ying's hiding place is secret, the possibility of being discovered cannot be ruled out, and he is a little reluctant to let Qianyun fall into a dangerous situation.

In addition, this morning, the emperor has a lot of complaints about them, and has repeatedly proposed that you must let the princes hand over the soldiers and horses, and each of them must hand over at least 100 people, obviously suspicious of their princes, using a strategy to startle the snake, maybe some people have been impatient to attract attention.

"Kim!" King Yu's deep voice sounded.

I saw a figure flying down from the roof of the study and kneeling down on one knee, "Lord Wang!"

"You send someone to keep an eye on King Ning and Uncle Ming, if this king is not mistaken, the fifth brother has already collected the people of the former prince, third brother, and fourth brother under his command. "Before the emperor ascended the throne, there was a mutiny initiated by the prince, the third brother, the fourth brother and the sixth brother, and finally the sixth brother won the throne, and the next day the prince, the third brother, and the fourth brother were executed.

King Ning acted cautiously, not that he was not interested in the throne, but he always liked to leave behind the moves, if it wasn't for Qianyun stabbing his lair in advance, he would be indispensable in the military chaos at that time.

"Yes!" Kim commanded.

"Remember, be careful of the emperor's people, the current situation King Ning is definitely targeted by the emperor, you'd better go to the secret investigation in person to find out who the emperor sent to do this, this kind of thing can't be handled by a rough person like Lei Ba. ”

"Yes!" the subordinate understood. ”

"Go ahead!"

Jin is the commander of King Yu's secret guard, and his martial arts can rank among the top five in the entire Southern Chu Kingdom, so let him go to investigate King Ning's affairs, King Yu will be more at ease.

But now he is very worried that the emperor will act in advance, and he is also a mentality that he would rather kill mistakes than let go, although he had no intention of fighting for the throne due to illness before, and Li Yin is the only brother who is not a threat to the emperor, but recently his complexion should not be able to hide the fact that his body has recovered. Today, he named himself in the court to send a hundred people to the court, maybe he smelled something about Qianyun's affairs.

King Yu burned Ying's letter and got up to leave.

Since Ying last received a message from a wild goose, Qianyun said that she would delay her return and let them continue to train, but the recruitment was suspended, and she encountered Lei Ba forcibly arresting people on the road to fill the number, it is estimated that the emperor will soon know, and will take action, and let them act carefully, and adapt to emergencies, do not go directly to King Yu, but write to inform King Yu of his late return.

She also knew the situation, so she hurriedly asked someone to bring a letter to King Yu, and asked that person not to come back within a month.

Two days later, Ying didn't wait for King Yu's reply, she felt a little uneasy, and she hurriedly called Qiao Yang and Qin Hu to discuss.

"Come on, go and call Qiao Yang and Qin Hu to come over. Ying commanded from inside a tent.

"Yes!" The two soldiers guarding outside the tent hurriedly set off, Qiao Yang and Qin Hu were not training in the same place, and it still took some time for them to run over.

After about half an hour, Qiao Yang and Qin Hu quickly walked into Ying's tent, looking slightly nervous.

Qiao Yang asked with concern: "Commander Ying, is the master coming with news?"

Ying nodded and replied seriously: "Yes, the master came to the news two days ago, informing him that the return date was delayed, but he did not inform him of the time to come back." ”

Qin Hu has had more or less contact with Qiao Yang and them in recent days, and he has also heard about Qianyun's ability, but after all, he has very little contact with Qianyun, and he does not have as much affection for her as Ying and Qiao Yang, he only knows that Qianyun has a token, and they need to obey instructions. So he asked, "Does the Grand Commander have any new directives?"

"Continue to train troops, stop recruiting, meet unexpected situations, adapt to emergencies, strengthen preparedness in the near future, and do a good job of concealment, these are the words of the master. Ying told everyone what Qianyun meant.

Qiao Yang and Qin Hu nodded.

"Maybe the situation in the Holy Capital City has changed, the last time King Yu received my letter, the next day he replied, this time there are no instructions for three days, I am afraid that something has happened in the city. Ying had no reservations about Qiao Yang and Qin Hu, Qianyun had said that they were all people who could be trusted, and of course she believed in her master as a subordinate.

Qiao Yang didn't think that there would be changes in the city in such a short period of time, so he asked, "King Yu's future letter, will there be something?"

"No, the master's undertaking of military training is for King Yu, and it is impossible for King Yu to ignore his own affairs, I guess there is an accident in the city to find everyone to discuss countermeasures. ”

Qiao Yang frowned slightly, he never thought that Qianyun was training for a prince again, he was already unhappy to hear that she was involved with the prince of the court, did she have to go through the previous road again?

Ying knew Qiao Yang's thoughts somewhat, and she had heard their previous deeds some time ago, and she sighed a little, but she still had to tell him: "Qiao Yang, the master is not the previous Qianyun, and King Yu is not the king of Ping, we have to believe in the master." ”

Qiao Yang looked at Ying, of course he knew that Ying was the person sent by King Yu to Qianyun, and he would intercede for King Yu everywhere. "What can you do for your master? If you want me to believe you, you can make a statement to me in front of Commander Qin. ”

Ying didn't expect Qiao Yang to be so loyal to Qianyun, but she wasn't. "I am willing to die for my master. ”

"Okay, they're all the people of the Grand Commander, what's the use of being suspicious of each other here, if something really happens in the city and the Grand Commander hasn't returned, we should come up with the next countermeasure. Qin Hu reprimanded loudly, they are all people together, because it is a joke to quarrel like this.

Ying and Qiao Yang were slightly embarrassed, they just didn't like others to doubt their loyalty to their master, but they didn't expect to be so impulsive.

"If something really happens in the city, or if King Yu does have an accident, the Great Commander will not sit idly by, we still send someone to the Holy Capital City to inquire about the situation and make plans, what do you think?" Qin Hu proposed.

"Okay!"

"I agree!"

Qiao Yang and Ying agreed to Qin Hu's proposal, Qiao Yang's subordinates before the emperor's people were basically definitely not able to go, Ying was King Yu's people after all, if he was followed, it was too risky, as for Qin Hu, Ying and Qiao Yang both denied letting him go, he was the commander of thousands of elite soldiers, how could he let him take this risk.

In the end, Ying selected four of her elite soldiers who were proficient in hiding and spying on intelligence to investigate the situation in the Holy Capital.
