Chapter 47 Don’t trust people

 "Princess..."
On a super large carriage.
Princess Luo Ling has not gone to bed yet, and she is not even playing with men, which is rare, but is reading the secret reports from the border.
"Is something wrong?"
"That's right."
Jiang Xuan didn't mention Yang Lu, because he didn't want his uncle to be involved in the royal camp, so he changed the person who discovered the problem to himself: "I have read Meng Xiaowei's file. The file said that Meng Xiaowei's strength is in the middle of the second-rate.
, but this time I went out and found that Captain Meng was not a second-rate player, but a first-rate player."
“First class!”
Princess Luo Ling frowned: "What then?"
"The military is different from others. This is not a place where you pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger."
"The more powerful you are, the more respected and important you will be. Captain Meng has been in the army for sixteen years. With his qualifications and background, as long as he is strong enough, he will be promoted easily."
"But he hid it, which is obviously very problematic, because no one will refuse a promotion unless he has an ulterior secret."
Jiang Xuan said bluntly: "The Ranger Battalion is one of the three scout battalions in Wangzhi Pass. Its 800 Ranger scouts are the proud eyes and ears of the border army.
Where is Colonel Meng?
He had served as a personal soldier of General Zhengxing, and he, the captain, was also promoted by General Zhengxing. From the fact that he was responsible for picking up the troops, it can be seen that General Zhengxing appreciated him very much, otherwise he would not have sent the Ranger Camp to the camp.
Leave it to him to take charge.
But I think.
General Zhengxing may have made a mistake.
Colonel Meng might have another identity. As you know, countries have the habit of sending spies to each other.
Get some people, assign them reasonable status, and then let them do business, take imperial examinations, or even serve as soldiers, and scatter them in various industries to wait for the right time."
Princess Luo Ling hesitated: "Do you suspect that Meng Huai is a spy from another country lurking in the army?"
Jiang Xuan replied: "I have suspicions, but I am not sure. Otherwise, you can ask Eunuch Hong to go and ask General Zhengxing if he knows that Meng Huai is a first-class master.
If you don’t know, let him let it out and say that we are very satisfied with the situation at Wangzhi Pass and are ready to set off the day after tomorrow to inspect the next border pass, and then see who will take the initiative to volunteer and offer to escort us out.<
/p>
If it were anyone else, forget it.
If it were Meng Huai, I wouldn’t be able to keep this person."
Silence...
Think about the calmness along the way.
Princess Luo Ling actually understood that the Four Kingdoms would not let her go around the border so smoothly, and it was only a matter of time before she was assassinated.
Now that there are signs and suspicions.
Why not change from passive to active? You can only commit a thief for a thousand days, but there is no way to prevent a thief for a thousand days. This may be a good opportunity to fish for law enforcement.
"Early tomorrow morning, I will ask Eunuch Hong to take a trip."
Luo Ling thought: "If Meng Huai really has a problem, there is no need to rush to kill him. It is better to use the trick and give them a chance to see if we can attract some people to jump out.
After all, the enemy is hidden and we are clear, and we cannot be on guard all day long. Only by catching them out and catching them all, or severely injuring their vitality, can we have a peaceful journey."
Hear this.
Jiang Xuan nodded secretly, Princess Luo Ling was indeed not a palace beauty who only knew how to play with men.
But it’s right to think about it.
The royal family is also a family. To be favored by the royal family, the fourteenth princess must be smart and talented, otherwise her mother who is a concubine will not be able to support her.
The second day.
Everything goes according to plan.
First of all, it was General Zhengxing. Elder Hong had already talked with him, and he was in disbelief that Meng Huai was a first-rate master.
It can be seen from this.
Meng Huai's hiding of his cultivation was not something he ordered, so he entered the second stage.
"General, when I came here I saw the imperial army allocating food and grass and sorting out their armor and soldiers. This is..."
"Oh, it's Meng Huai."
Under the Chinese Army Camp.
General Zhengxing was sorting out the paperwork and said without raising his head: "We are leaving. As a member of the royal family, the princess shoulders the important task of patrolling the borders for His Majesty. Naturally, she cannot stay with us for a long time. She should go down to work."
We've gone to the border."
Speaking.
General Zhengxing joked again: "Why, are you reluctant to leave the princess?"
Meng Huaipai smiled and said: "Who is the general? The princess is a divine phoenix in the sky. Seeing her is a blessing for us. Because of the princess inspection these days, the brothers have to work extra hard when training. Who is willing to do it?
Let the princess go."
That’s it.
Meng Huai seemed to have remembered something again and whispered: "General, recently many Zhi Kingdom scouts were discovered in the Hengduan Mountains. These people have worked hard to cross the mountains. Do you want to do harm to the princess and her party?
."
General Zhengxing stroked his beard: "You mean..."
"The reason for my humble duty is that the princess, who is rich in gold, must not be involved in danger. If she is surprised by Zhi Kingdom's scouts, she will be in trouble." Meng Huai said as if I was thinking about you: "After all, this is our jurisdiction.
You are also to blame for this mistake. To be on the safe side, it is better to let the soldiers in the army escort us for a while, so that the princess can know our loyalty."
General Zhengxing was noncommittal: "How many people do you need?"
Meng Huai replied: "There are a thousand forbidden troops accompanying the princess. I think another two thousand soldiers will be enough."
"Where to tune it from?"
"There are 800 elite cavalry under my humble command. In addition, Commander Dai of the Third Battalion of the Left Guard is brave and capable. He also has 3,000 light armored infantry, half of which can be used to accompany him."
"The third battalion of Zuowei, this is Dai Zhengzong's battalion!"
General Zhengxing's eyes revealed a look of reminiscence: "When I was in the general's personal army, I remember that you and Lao Daiduo had a dispute."
"Yes..." Meng Huai did not deny it, but sighed: "When I was in the Guards Corps, Captain Dai and I were selected recruits together. Captain Dai was enrolled half a day earlier than me, so
He often pretends to be senior to me, and I annoy him the most at that time..."
After a pause: "Time is not forgiving, this was more than ten years ago."
What does it mean.
Although Dai Zhengzong and I had a dispute in the Guards back then, it was because we were ignorant when we were young. Now more than ten years have passed since this incident, and we are all comrades who are just stirring up food in a horse spoon. Where did it come from?
So much hatred.
"Okay."
General Zhengxing had no objection: "I will leave it to you and Colonel Dai to escort the princess."
"Yes, General."
Meng Huai accepted the order and retreated.
Wait until he leaves.
General Zhengxing's face turned green and red, and he threw the wine glass on the table to the ground: "Dai Zhengzong betrayed me, Meng Huai betrayed me, and they forgot that one of them was a porter accompanying the army, and the other was a supporter.
The horse slaves, I gave them today..."
"The general is serious."
Accompanied by sneers.
Eunuch Hong walked out from behind the screen and whispered: "These two secrets should have been planted more than ten years ago, whether by porters or horse slaves, just waiting to be used today.
Especially that Meng Huai, I heard that he used his body to help you as an assassin, so he was in a coma for five days and almost died. This cruel trick is so wonderful."
Eat.
Who is Li.
In Eunuch Hong's view, Meng Huai and Dai Xiaowei have probably always been from the Zhi Kingdom, and they are serving the country with loyalty.
As for the outside.
You think you are a benefactor, but in the eyes of these two people, you are a fool.
What kind of horse slaves and what kind of porters are all fake.
Even if he loyally protects his master and blocks arrows with his body, what would he be able to do if he didn't have this kind of shield, and what would the Ranger Colonel in charge of eight hundred elite Rangers do?
Eunuch Hong entered the palace at an early age.
I studied there for seventy years in a place where I was praised for my superiors and suppressed my inferiors.
