Chapter 93 Adviser, on the eve of the war (2)
Chen Baiqi acted hypocritically and modestly, but in her heart she also had to weigh the identity of the middle-aged man in front of her.
He and Sun Yang can call each other brothers in private, and there is not much sense of humility when talking about them. However, he is not restrained and cautious in front of Master Cangyue, and talks and laughs with her. This shows that his status in Juyang is not the same.
Not low.
Perhaps... this is another strategist who will compete with her for the position of the lord's first minister in the future!
"This is Mr. Chen Dongwu. He is the direct disciple of Zhenren Wolong in Henghuaigang. He is good at calculations and writing strategies. He is someone close to me." Master Cangyue introduced to Chen Baiqi.
But his introduction was really heartfelt.
"It seems that my lord really trusts Ms. Chen..." Mr. Wu stroked his beard, glanced at the serious Mr. Cang Yue with a smile, and then bowed his hand to Chen Baiqi. This was the basic politeness for a scholar to meet, and he said:
"Wu Yuan, Brother Sun and I both serve the lord. If Miss Chen is lucky enough to be able to always be by the lord's side in the future, you and I will have a great chance to meet and learn from each other."
Chen Baiqi did not dare to accept this courtesy as a woman, so he quickly lowered his head, returned the courtesy, and called him respectfully: "Mr. Wu."
Mr. Wu nodded with a smile.
Mr. Cang Yue smiled at Wu Yuan's meaningful eyes. He knew that Wu Yuan must have understood his thoughts. He coughed uncomfortably and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Let's talk about business now."
When Chen Baiqi heard this, she wanted to ask for help again, but Mr. Wu stopped her. He gave her a look and asked her to stay still for the time being.
"My lord, Wu Yuan knows that you are worried about Ms. Chen's unwellness, and there is nothing wrong with that. However, you are so arbitrary, why don't you first listen to her explain her words carefully before making a decision?" Wu Yuan wore a brocade dress over his gray robe
Even though he wears a thick fur coat, his body is too thin, but he only looks strong and strong, without feeling bloated and bulky.
"..." Mr. Cang Yue had no expression on his face and turned towards Chen Baiqi.
"Miss Chen can sacrifice herself for the sake of the world, but my lord, you are responsible for the lives of tens of thousands of people in the Chu Kingdom. Wu Yuan hopes that you will always remember this." Wu Yuan bowed to Master Cang Yue and admonished him in a serious tone.
road.
Wu Yuan and Sun Yang have been with Master Cangyue for more than ten years, from the prosperous Danyang Imperial Capital to the harsh and remote places like Juyang. They have devoted themselves to helping him, teaching him, and never leaving him. For Master Cangyue,
The two of them were both teachers and ministers, so Master Cang Yue had to take Wu Yuan's words into consideration.
Master Cang Yue had a calm face, but still did not let go.
Seeing this, Wu Yuan sighed. The young master is really too fond of Miss Chen. Is this a good thing or a bad thing... Brother Sun and him can't make a decision right now...
He has finished what needs to be said and what needs to be persuaded. All that is left is to look at Miss Chen.
Chen Baiqi asked Wu Yuan to step aside, and she said to Master Cang Yue: "Bai Qi came to look for Master Cang Yue this time. He did not act recklessly, but he made sufficient preparations. I have considered everything that needs to be considered. I am not alone."
Instead, I am going to accompany a group of elite troops. I trust them to be able to shoulder this important task. However, Sir, are you willing to trust me and entrust me with this task?"
"Chen San, do you know how dangerous this trip is?" Master Cang Yue clenched his fists, not understanding why Chen Baiqi was so persistent.
She is a sister-in-law. He no longer expects her to be a law-abiding person, but unexpectedly, she wants to compete with the generals vigorously. If she doesn't have a "yellow sand, you will wear golden armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will never be returned until you break it."
"Don't give up yet.
Chen Baiqi said: "I know."
Seeing Chen Baiqi like this, Wu Yuan said: "We all know the danger of this trip. Since we have no better way at the moment, why not trust Miss Chen once. I once heard Brother Sun praise that Miss Chen is thoughtful and thoughtful as an ordinary woman."
, she was able to go all the way from Pingling to find the mole, and she was able to survive the group of barbarians unharmed, and she was also appreciated by the young leader of the Guzhu clan. She is indeed brave and resourceful, comparable to a heroine, and she is worthy
Let’s treat each other differently.”
What Wu Yuan said was not flattery, but sincere.
When he heard Brother Sun's story about meeting this strange girl Chen in Pingling, he was shocked and doubtful. He didn't believe that there could be such a wise, brave and knowledgeable woman in the world. This time, he personally followed her.
The lord went to Diaozhu to conquer the three mansions. He learned about the girl's experience when she came to Diaozhu, and saw with his own eyes the spirit of clearing her bones despite her cold years. He felt that Brother Sun, Xun Zhai and others were not exaggerating.
There is something truly admirable about this son, and this cannot be ignored just because he is a sister-in-law.
When Master Cang Yue heard this, he knew that it would be useless to say more. He frowned and closed his eyes tightly. The next second, he suddenly opened them again.
"Chen San, are you really sure you can save the people in the three mansions?" he said.
"Please rest assured, Sir, Bai Qi will definitely live up to his mission." Chen Baiqi solemnly saluted him.
On the other side, King Di Rong defeated the armies of the three prefectures and retreated steadily. Dragon was so happy that he slaughtered pigs and cows on the grassland that night, set up bonfires and dances, and gathered the leaders of all tribes.
At the meeting, the leaders of all ethnic groups were eating and drinking, and laughing far and wide, but there was one person, with a stooped body like a tower, and a muffled voice, sitting on the seat of the Shanrong tribe, drinking bowls of wine.
Put it in your throat and don't talk to the people around you.
King Di Rong ordered the Shanrong tribe to serve as the vanguard of other armies and raise troops to attack Beiyang Pass in the three prefectures. The other tribes were responsible for transporting grain and grass to supply each battalion.
In the midst of a lively and joyful atmosphere, a barbarian spy lowered his head and rushed into the meeting.
"Report to my king that the Lone Bamboo, Linhu, Loufan and Bata tribesmen of the local tribe of Dizu have disappeared. The autumn festival of Shanrong was in a mess, with countless dead bodies and traces of a large army raid!"
King Di Rong, who was sitting above, put down his wine bowl when he heard this. He raised his head. His face was painted with a brightly colored totem pattern, and his facial features were three-dimensional and deep. He was wearing a fox velvet hat, an animal skin coat, and a neck.
There are many bright white silver ornaments on her upper body, wrists, and waist. The bronze chest muscles exposed in the air are very tight and smooth, and the whole person looks gorgeous and domineering.
"Where are the troops?" King Di Rong shouted angrily.
"It doesn't look like the cavalry of Sanfu."
"Explore again immediately! Now is the critical moment for us to capture the mole, and we will not allow any mistakes!" King Di Rong said sternly.
"yes!"
The man who had been drinking the wine suddenly raised his head and stared at the spy's leaving figure. His heart tightened and he thought to himself - who is it?
Now that the world is dominated by barbarians, who has the ability to lead a large number of troops? Could it be... her?
——
Chen Baiqi is a person who never procrastinates in doing things. Once he has made a decision, he takes action immediately.
She changed out of the Hu clothes she was forced to wear in the Guzhu tribe and put on a Chu costume again. She knew that Master Cang Yue had successfully found Chi Muhe and locked him up tightly, but Si Si
The news has never been found.
She only hoped that Sisi would be dispersed by the crowd and that nothing unexpected would happen.
Chen Baiqi originally said goodbye to Mr. Cang Yue, but when he thought about it, he didn't agree with her voluntary request for military service, so he didn't take the initiative to step forward to cause trouble. She borrowed a horse from the military camp and prepared to return to her family's Chenjiajun Mountain.
, summoned soldiers and horses to discuss countermeasures to rescue the people of the three prefectures.
Little did she know as she galloped away on horseback that Mr. Cang Yue had known for a long time that she would leave without saying goodbye. He had been waiting on the road she must pass, watching her leave with his own eyes until her figure disappeared.
He still stood there for a long time...
Far away from the camp of Cang Yue's army, Chen Baiqi took out the yellow colt he had stored in the system and replaced it. This time, the speed could be faster.
When she arrived at the foot of the mountain, she saw Si Jiang's waiting figure in the distance. It must have been the scouts of the Chen family who discovered her from a high place, and he came out to greet her.
Chen Baiqi got off his horse and immediately stepped forward.
"Chen San, are you okay?"
Si Jiang still pretended to be an ordinary middle-aged strong man. When he saw her coming back safely, he beamed with joy.
"Well, I'm fine. Didn't you come back alone because you trusted my ability?" Chen Baiqi smiled slightly.
"Although I know you have many skills to save your life, I always feel uneasy when I don't see people." Si Jiang shook his head.
After saying that, he looked to her left and right, his happy expression paused for a moment.
The smile on Chen Baiqi's face disappeared little by little. She knew what he was thinking. She thought about it and said it bluntly: "Sijiang, Sisi...is missing."
Chen Baiqi told everything about how they escaped from the Sanfu Prison through the ditch, how they were captured by the Guzhu people, and what happened next.
After Si Jiang heard this, his expression was blank for a long time.
"In this way, he is in danger..."
In the midst of war and chaos, how can a person who doesn't know how to fight escape from the predicament?
"No, Jiren has his own celestial phenomenon, and he will be fine. Again, his body was not found at the autumn festival, so there is a glimmer of hope." Chen Baiqi stepped forward and patted his shoulder to comfort him.
road.
Si Jiang smiled miserably: "If he really died, then he died unjustly. I'm afraid he will... hate me until his death."
Chen Baiqi was startled and looked at him silently.
Listening to what he said, it seemed like something had happened between him and these four sisters in the past.
"If it weren't for me, he wouldn't have gone to Chu State as a hostage. I guess he must have known it, so he has been hating me, blaming me, and complaining about me. In fact, this is what he should do, so he shouldn't
He shouldn't have died like this..."
"He's not dead." Chen Baiqi interrupted his pessimistic thoughts.
Si Jiang's face turned gloomy and he said no more.
Chen Baiqi sighed: "At least he is not dead now. I believe we will find him."
Si Jiang looked up at the sky and suddenly said: "Chen San, do you have any brothers or sisters?"
Chen Baiqi knew that he was feeling depressed now and wanted to find someone to talk to.
"have."
"How is the relationship?" he asked again.
Chen Baiqi thought for a moment and then said: "I have a sister, she is already dead. If you count her seriously, she should be indirectly killed by me."
Because he wanted to unravel Si Jiang, this was the first time that Chen Baiqi talked about the past between Chen Jiaoniang and her sister Chen Fu.
