Chapter 228 Husband and wife meet
They are said to be the soldiers of the general who guards the country, so why are there people from Tianxuan country among them?
The truth was about to be revealed. Bai Sui'an hid his body and continued to linger around the tents to find out what was going on inside.
She tried to stay in each place for as long as possible. She couldn't sneak in to see where there were people, so she could only judge based on the content of the conversations inside.
I eavesdropped all the way and found my way to the commander's tent. There were candles on inside, but no sound of people.
There was movement, but I couldn't tell who was inside.
There are people patrolling around coming and going, so it's not a good idea to wait there all the time.
Bai Sui'an simply cut a hole with a knife and looked inside.
She didn't know if it was good luck or fate, but when she looked at the small opening, she saw Ye Lingche's figure. Even though she could only see the back of his head, she could still recognize it was him.
I thought the secret guards would find the person in other camps, but now that she found him first, there is no need for her to come back later.
The candlelight flickered in the tent. Ye Lingche leaned on the table, his hands supporting his cheeks, and his head nodded.
He was the only one inside, but there were people standing guard outside the tent, so Bai Sui'an couldn't go in directly.
She picked up a piece of sand from the ground, pinched the small stone between her thumb and index finger, put it into the small hole she had just cut, and used her knuckles to exert force, flicking the stone onto Ye Lingche's head.
He suddenly woke up and looked around.
Bai Sui'an said "Hello" softly.
Ye Lingche's body stiffened at first, then he suddenly turned around and saw the small hole outside the curtain. The hole was not big, and he could only see Bai Sui'an's nose bridge and one eye.
"My wife!" Ye Lingche's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly crawled towards Bai Sui'an.
There was a sudden sound of iron chains all around him.
Only then did Bai Sui'an discover that under Ye Lingche's wide robe was an iron chain as thick as his arm, which had been holding Ye Lingche.
Moreover, the range of movement of the iron chain was limited, and he could not crawl to Bai Sui'an.
There was still some distance between the two.
But this was enough for Ye Lingche.
He has lost a lot of weight and his beard has grown longer. If he loses any more weight, he will probably look like Bai Sui'an when he first came into this world.
"Why are you here? Have you seen Yanliu and the others?"
After meeting Bai Sui'an, Ye Lingche forgot all the hardships he had endured these days. When he spoke, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, and his voice became sticky.
He didn't mention himself at all, so Bai Sui'an could only bear it and ask about his condition later.
"I don't know where they are. Do you have any arrangements with them?"
Ye Lingche nodded. "Yes, I met with them before coming to the Imperial City. Yan Liu and the others have prepared their troops in Mo City. I am now left here to bear the responsibility and cannot leave. Don't trust anyone outside, including the garrison troops who said they were coming to rescue you."
"I'll reunite with Yanliu and the others and take care of the garrison. What should we do next?"
"Fourth brother is in the palace, and I don't know how father is doing now. If all goes well, you can say that the Fourth Prince is colluding with the rebels and deliberately imprisoned His Majesty in the palace, and then lead the troops to attack directly. There are more than just their people in the imperial city. Once you break in, there won't be many people who can stop you."
Someone would be patrolling here soon, and Bai Sui'an had to leave this place quickly.
If I can meet Ye Lingche directly, everything will be easy afterwards.
Bai Sui'an was the first to leave the camp and meet up with the secret guards outside. She directly ordered the secret guards to ignite the buried gunpowder, which was guided by a long line and burned all the way to the perimeter of the camp.
With a bang, countless sand and rocks exploded.
If there is any movement, the two secret guards who sneaked into the camp at the same time as Bai Sui'an will immediately withdraw.
After the four of them reunited, Bai Sui'an immediately headed to Mo City.
Mo City is right next to the Imperial City and it won’t take long to get there.
It’s just because of the current situation in the imperial city that Mocheng no longer opens its gates. The garrison has been dispatched, so they can only close the gates to avoid future dangers.
However, the soldiers guarding the city gate did not drive Bai Sui'an away directly. A leader came up and took Bai Sui'an aside.
Suddenly he pulled out a portrait and asked, "Do you recognize this person?"
The person in the portrait looks like a green ivy, and is painted very lively and a bit playful.
Bai Sui'an shook his head naturally: "I don't know him."
There’s no reason to tell the truth to someone whose background you don’t know, “Did this person commit a crime?”
The man stared at Bai Sui'an for a long time before lowering his voice and saying, "Princess, don't be afraid. I'm one of you. I'm just asking you a routine question. The secret passage into the city is over there. Everyone is waiting for you."
Bai Sui'an did not let down his guard: "I don't understand what you are saying."
Seeing Bai Sui'an like this, the man had no choice but to let Bai Sui'an go somewhere else first. He would then let Yanliu and Luoluo come out, and then Bai Sui'an would believe it.
Not every person guarding the city was his accomplice, so Bai Sui'an simply pretended to leave first and waited in a hidden place to see whether the people coming were the ones who would arrest her, or whether it was really Yanliu and Luluo as the man had just said.
After waiting for a long time, I saw three figures in black robes hiding in the night and quietly coming towards this side.
Bai Sui'an asked the secret guards to go to other places to stay first.
Two of the three people who came were Yanliu and Luoluo, but Bai Sui'an also knew the remaining one.
It should be said that he knew Gong Sui'an from the past.
He is General Linglong, and is of the same rank as Ni Ya in Tianxuan Kingdom. However, Ni Ya stays with Gong Sui'an except for official duties, while the general is always away, so Ni Ya doesn't know much about the general.
The three of them walked in, and Bai Sui'an also jumped down from the tree on his own initiative.
"Hey," she said softly, emotionlessly.
Green Rose was startled and immediately hugged General Linglong's arm: "Ah! Oh! Princess, why did you come down from the tree? I was scared to death."
"I was afraid that the people who came were here to arrest me, so I hid for a while."
Yan Liu smiled faintly: "I'm so glad you're okay, Princess."
Bai Sui'an returned her smile and turned to look at General Linglong who had been looking at her.
General Linglong was about forty years old. She had never married in her life and had chosen to lead troops in battle. She was used to being serious and looked at Bai Sui'an closely with her eagle-eyed eyes.
Bai Sui'an spoke first: "Hello, General. I heard that you have already prepared your troops. When should we send them?"
Linglong withdrew her gaze from Bai Sui'an and said, "Tomorrow, you and we can go back and rest for a night."
After saying that, she turned and left.
Luoluo pulled Bai Sui'an to follow, and Yanliu also walked beside Bai Sui'an, listening to Luoluo asking Bai Sui'an about what he had seen and heard along the way.
Since most of the time they were on the road, Bai Sui'an just picked out some key points to talk about.
"Gongchang is dead."
Linglong, who was at the front, joined in the conversation: "Did you do it?"
"Well, I saw him in the Barbarian Country and dealt with him, but he didn't reveal the person behind it."
Linglong's tone softened a bit: "You are more decisive and courageous than before, not bad."
Being suddenly praised by his elders, Bai Sui'an subconsciously looked at Yan Liu, asking with his eyes if she had told General Linglong that she was not Gong Sui'an?
Yan Liu shook her head and signaled Bai Sui'an not to say this to General Linglong.
Because it's useless to say it. General Linglong only believes in things fought for by swords and doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, so he has never gotten along with Ni Ya.
He couldn't stand the fact that a strong man like Ni Ya prayed to the gods every day.
