After taking a look at the secret letter in his hand, Wei Changtian did not rush to open it, but casually threw the letter on the table.
Judging from the current situation, although the Qianhui and the Second Kingdom were unable to attack outside Fengyuan City for a long time, if they did not participate, they should still be able to break through Fengyuan and occupy the entire Xinfeng territory.
But if I insist on reinforcing Xu Suisui...
It's hard to say what the battle situation will be like.
Obviously, from being full of confidence to suffering setbacks one after another, Qian returned to Erguo and already discovered that something was wrong with the situation.
That's why they want to negotiate with themselves again, and their purpose is nothing more than to persuade them to give up their support and recruit new ones.
Of course, compared to the last time Jing Guoqing sent a secret letter full of threats, Qian Qian's attitude towards returning to the Second Kingdom will definitely be much lower this time.
It's just that they want to talk, but Wei Changtian may not be willing to talk.
"Tell Zhan Shifu that there is no need to reply."
Wei Changtian smiled disdainfully and said to Zhang San: "Just let them wait in Huailing."
"yes."
Zhang San nodded immediately, and then said: "By the way, sir, my wife has returned to Shuzhou City."
"Is it?"
Wei Changtian nodded slightly, pondered for a moment and then asked: "Where is Chu Xianping? Where is he?"
"We have reached the border of Luzhou, and we will arrive in Qingzhou tomorrow."
After Zhang San answered, he came closer, lowered his voice and continued:
"Sir, Mr. Chu seemed to have gone to see someone last night, and the brother who was following him didn't follow..."
"Um?"
Wei Changtian was stunned and narrowed his eyes slightly: "When did it happen?"
"It was about the residence that Zi Shi left and Yin Shi returned to. There were almost two hours in between."
Zhang San replied: "The people who were watching said that Mr. Chu turned into an alley and then disappeared."
"That alley is a dead end, and there is a small lake beyond the end, so Mr. Chu may have entered a certain house in the alley."
"Sir, can we..."
"Don't alert the enemy yet."
Wei Changtian frowned, waved his hand and interrupted: "After Chu Xianping arrives in Qingzhou in a few days, we will start to find out who lives in that alley."
"Yes, I understand!"
"Is there anything else?"
"No more for now."
"Okay, go ahead...by the way, call Li Zimu over."
"yes!"
With a cup of his hand, Zhang San quickly bowed and walked out of the tent.
Wei Changtian, on the other hand, dragged his chin and was still thinking about Chu Xianping.
Luzhou, going to meet someone in the middle of the night, two hours...
Two years ago, when he was "assigned" to Shuzhou, Wei Changtian passed through Luzhou and participated in a flower appraisal party with Liang Zhen.
Except for the "Little Dongguan" Anyi County, he had no special impression of this state capital located in the east of Daning.
Similarly, Chu Xianping probably doesn't have any relatives or friends there.
So, who did he go to see?
Freemason?
Kuilong’s people?
Xu Suisui’s person?
Wei Changtian thought hard for a long time, and then suddenly had a bold idea at a certain moment.
In the middle of the night last night, Chu Xianping went to see a mysterious person, or to do something.
Then this morning, when Gan returned to Erguo, he sent a message saying that he wanted to negotiate with him again.
So...coincidence? Are you overthinking it?
But isn't this too much of a coincidence...
...
...
"General Liang, this is the list of suspicious people found today..."
While Wei Changtian was repeatedly wondering who Chu Xianping had gone to see, in a side tent not far from the army's main tent, Tang Chen had just handed over a roster to Liang Zhen.
In the past few days, he and Li Zimu have been checking the details of the army, and they can find dozens of people every day.
Of course, not all of these detailed works were sent by Qian Hui Erguo.
Some of them are people from Ning Wenjun, some are from Dajue, and some are people from other forces.
However, according to Wei Changtian's instructions, Tang Chen did not need to worry about this, as long as he found all the suspicious people.
As for whether to kill or release, Liang Zhen will handle the matter further.
"Okay, I'm done with you, Mr. Tang."
After taking the roster, Liang Zhen didn't stay here long and quickly turned around and left the side tent.
After he left, Li Zimu, who was also in the tent, stretched lazily.
"Ha~ so tired!"
"Mr. Tang, we should be almost done with the investigation, right?"
There is a saying that although Li Zimu's figure is not as good as that of Yang Liushi and others, it can still be considered curvy.
Especially now, with the "blessing" of movements, the overall curve presented can even be said to be somewhat attractive.
"Um......"
On the other side, Tang Chen looked quite embarrassed.
He didn't dare to look at Li Zimu, so he kept pretending to arrange the pen and ink on the desk, and waited until the latter put his arms down before continuing:
"Right now, only Qingfeng Camp and Yulin Camp are left to be investigated. It will take at most three days."
"In three days, we will almost arrive at Huailing..."
Li Zimu nodded and walked to Tang Chen. After seeing his actions, he couldn't help but smile: "Giggle, Mr. Tang, why are you moving these pieces of paper around?"
"Ah I......"
Tang Chen was even more embarrassed for a moment, and subconsciously retracted his hand, hesitating and not knowing how to explain.
When Li Zimu saw this, he laughed even harder and continued to joke:
"Goose goose, Mr. Tang, we have known each other for so long, why are you still so afraid of me?"
"I'm not afraid of being alone in a room with you, so what are you afraid of?"
"Are you afraid that I will molest you?"
"me......"
Tang Chen's tone was still stammering, and his expression was still embarrassed.
However, he looks much more "calm" now compared to a few days ago, probably because Li Zimu often makes fun of him like this.
"Miss Li, I made you laugh..."
Looking at the smiling Li Zimu, Tang Chen finally adjusted his mentality after a while, lowered his head and said silently:
"I grew up in the sect since I was a child. I am surrounded by senior brothers, not to mention women, there are not even a few hens..."
"So I really don't know how to get along with women, let alone how to please women..."
"I know you will find it boring when you get along with me, but..."
At this point, although Tang Chen still had his mouth open, there was nothing more to say.
Originally I wanted to say something like "But I will treat you well", but when the words came to my lips I couldn't say them out.
Therefore, he could only stay in place in embarrassment again until Li Zimu's voice sounded softly.
"I don't find it boring..."
It seemed to be comforting, but also sincere. I saw that the teasing look in Li Zimu's eyes had disappeared, leaving only a watery smile.
"Mr. Tang, other women may think you are dull and dull."
"But in my opinion, a man like you is the most reliable..."
"..."
His cheeks were slightly red, Li Zimu's voice became smaller and smaller, and his head lowered a little.
Tang Chen, on the other hand, looked at her blankly, his breathing becoming more and more rapid.
The atmosphere in the tent became extremely ambiguous just because of one sentence. If it were a TV series in the previous life, it would not be impossible for them to kiss each other just like that.
Of course, the two of them must not kiss at the moment.
But the relationship between them has become more intense again.
"Li, Miss Li..."
Two words were squeezed out of his throat. Tang Chen didn't know where he got the courage, and he was ready to say the half of the sentence that he couldn't say just now.
But at this moment, Zhang San's voice outside the tent suddenly interrupted this rare atmosphere.
