Lin Ye looked at the carriage beside him. The windows were always closed, and the prince was nowhere to be seen.
He looked at Yuan Qingze again. Yuan Qingze seemed to be preoccupied and was thinking about something all the time.
"It went pretty well."
Lin Ye said.
Yuan Qingze seemed to come back from his thoughts and looked at Lin Ye: "What are you talking about?"
Lin Ye looked into the distance.
On the high slope on one side of the official road, two men on horseback appeared, about three miles away, watching the team from a distance.
Yuan Qing followed Lin Ye's line of sight and looked over, not paying attention.
The Beiye Army and the Dongbo Army combined totaled nearly 2,000 troops at this time. If those two people were horse thieves who came to step on the plate, how could they dare to provoke them unless they were crazy.
"It'll be okay. If anything happens, it will be in Xinglin Town."
Yuan Qing said softly.
Lin Ye recalled the map. The place in Xinglin Town was considered to be a chokepoint among the choke points, and it was still the only way to go.
Xinglin Town is located in a low-lying land with mountains on both sides. It is said that bandits often appear.
Lin Ye didn't quite believe that those who wanted to get rid of Yuyu Chengchang dared to attack the army blatantly.
Moreover, the combat power of the five hundred Beiye warriors was so terrifying that even if they were besieged by five thousand bandits, it would be these five thousand bandits who had the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard.
Yuan Qingze said: "Their only reasonable excuse is that they are from Loufan."
Lin Ye nodded.
The Loufan people are the life and death enemies of the Dongbo people, even if they are of the same origin and race.
But for the Loufan people to launch a large-scale attack in Dongbo territory and still have to appear reasonable, that is simply a fool's errand.
"Guess who Xue Long's heart lies in?"
Yuan Qingze suddenly asked such a question.
Lin Ye looked at Yu Yucheng's carriage again and didn't answer, but the answer was in his eyes.
"You are very conflicted."
Yuan Qingze said.
Lin Ye asked: "Where?"
Yuan Qingze: "You talk a lot with your opponents, but you talk very little with yourself."
Lin Ye said: "Words are useful."
Yuan Qingze: "Speaking a few words to the people around you may not necessarily be useful, and it is not useless. At least it can bring the relationship closer."
Lin Ye said: "If I talk too much, it probably won't bring the relationship closer."
Yuan Qingze said helplessly: "The general actually values you very much, and it is only the eldest lady who wants you to go to Shangwuyuan."
Lin Ye replied: "I'm not qualified enough."
Yuan Qing said: "You are already a general at your age. Looking at the whole Dayu, if you say you are not qualified, who of your peers can say that you are qualified?"
Lin Ye: "The qualifications I mentioned are different."
Yuan Qing asked: "What's the difference?"
Lin Ye said: "The general will know when I go to Shangwuyuan."
Yuan Qing smiled, always feeling that this young man was hiding too many things in his heart, but thinking about it again, who didn't have anything hidden in his heart?
Yuan Qingze recalled what Lin Ye said just now... The general will know when I go to Shangwuyuan.
This sentence aroused Yuan Qingze's curiosity. He really wanted to see how far Lin Ye could go.
In the distance, the two men on horseback on the high slope withdrew. They probably just came to watch the excitement.
When an army of this size passes by, the thieves in the mountains will behave themselves even though they know they are not here to annihilate them.
Two days later, the team arrived at Xinglin Town.
Yuyu Chenghao was probably really frightened. He had not gotten out of the car in the past two days. Even eating, drinking and having sex were done in the car while someone was waiting on him.
Of course, so did the other nine.
Lin Ye passed by this place when he came here, and he knew how dangerous the location was.
Everyone knew it, but no one believed it. Who would really dare to attack so brazenly?
When they got off the bus, Yu Yucheng and the nine people were wearing exactly the same clothes, and they all covered their faces with the hats on their cloaks.
Ten people entered the arranged house together. This was the house of a wealthy family in the town and had been temporarily requisitioned.
The ten people entered the backyard and, under heavy protection from the Kitano Army, entered a room to rest.
Over in the front yard, Xiu Wanren watched the ten people go to the backyard, and couldn't help but cursed in his heart for such a wasteful move.
Yuyu Chenghao is short in stature. Which of the other nine is not taller than him?
"I'll go in and take a look."
Xiu Wanren and Jin Ling confessed, and then followed closely to the backyard, while Jin Ling went to check the surrounding terrain.
When Xiu Wanren came in, Lin Ye and Yuan Qingze were talking about something. When they saw him arriving, they both stopped.
Xiu Wanren didn't care, he just smiled, then walked to the side, muttering to himself that he needed to check it carefully.
Yuan Qingze waited for Xiu Wanren to go away and said: "There is actually no meaning in having ten people masked. Besides, Yu Yu Chengchang's cultivation level is really not high, so you have to stay close to him."
Lin Ye asked: "Why me?"
Yuan Qingze said: "What do you think?"
After saying that, he turned around and left.
When Lin Ye heard this, what do you think? His mood was a little complicated.
Why him?
Because as long as this matter is completed successfully, of course the credit belongs to him, it is all his.
Because of his aunt's care, even General Tuoba Lie would write his name first when reporting his merits to the court.
In order to convince the public, of course Lin Ye and Yu Yu Cheng have to stay together at all times.
Lin Ye walked to the door of Yuyu Chengchun's room and stood there, looking around. Only the fierce soldiers of the Beiye Army were there, and no one else was allowed to approach.
Not long after, Yuan Qing came over with his troops and signaled Lin Ye to open the door.
After Lin Ye entered the door, he took the box from Yu Yucheng hastily. After going out, the boxes of the other nine people were also taken out.
Ten tough soldiers with almost the same figure, their faces covered, and holding boxes gathered together, walked around randomly, shuffled the order, and then sent the boxes back to various rooms.
Even Xiu Wanren felt a little uncomfortable watching this operation.
The box has been changed. Who among the ten people has the real snow dragon heart? Maybe even they themselves don’t know.
"General Xiu."
Yuan Qing looked at Xiu Wanren and said, "How about you being on duty for the first half of tonight?"
Xiu Wanren smiled and said: "I was ordered by the Crown Prince to assist General Yuan in escorting Xue Longxin. Naturally, I have to obey General Yuan's orders."
Yuan Qingze said: "Then it will be hard work."
After saying that, he really left without even looking back.
Xiu Wanren smiled at Lin Ye and said, "Why don't General Lin also go and have a rest? There are guards in front and behind here, so nothing will happen."
Lin Ye said: "That's fine."
Xiu Wanren was startled and thought to himself, is this guy really so obedient?
Then he saw Lin Ye pushing the door and entering Yu Yu Chengchun's house, then turned around and waved: "You come in too."
Xiu Wanren was startled again. Just as he was about to respond, he heard someone speaking behind him.
"Please give way."
Monk Hua passed by Xiu Wanren, stepped into the house, turned around and locked the door.
In the room, Lin Ye asked Monk Hua that question again.
"Can you fight?"
Monk Hua looked at Lin Ye helplessly: "You always ask me if I can fight. I ask you to fight, but you don't fight."
Lin Ye: "I'm asking you if you can hit others."
Monk Hua shook his head, and the flesh on his face shook.
He said: "I am a monk. Although I drink alcohol, eat meat and am a bad gambler, I am still a monk after all."
Lin Ye just looked at him, making Monk Hua feel a little embarrassed.
Monk Hua said: "There must be one precept that cannot be broken."
"Then you can sleep with His Royal Highness."
Lin Ye walked to the outer room and sat down: "I'll guard the outside, and you guard the inside."
Monk Hua looked at the bed: "I can't sleep on it."
Yu Yucheng said hurriedly: "I...can..." Before he finished speaking, Monk Hua laughed and said: "Thank you, your highness, please sleep under the bed."
After saying that, he flopped down on the bed, and the bed immediately made an overwhelming sound.
Yu Yucheng hastily felt that the biggest life and death danger he faced tonight was probably being crushed to death by that guy under the bed.
"Listen to him."
Lin Ye said to Yu Yucheng hastily: "He is at least a good human shield."
Yu Yucheng was helpless.
As the Prince of Dongbo, it is really unbelievable for him to sleep under the bed.
But he did as he was told, and after eating, he got under the bed. It was only when he reached the bottom of the bed that he took off his hat and the gauze covering his face, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"General Lin."
Yu Yu Cheng hurriedly asked from under the bed: "You said you would protect me, right?"
Lin Ye nodded: "Yes."
Yu Yucheng hummed, and after being silent for a while, he asked: "General Lin, is Dayu really so prosperous and beautiful?"
Lin Ye: "Your Highness, if there is danger tonight, it will be in the middle of the night, so it is better for Your Highness to go to bed early now so that if you need to run in the second half of the night, you still have the energy and energy."
Yu Yucheng fell silent again.
At this time, Monk Hua suddenly asked: "Your Highness asked if Dayu is so good. Does he want to stay in Dayu and not go back?"
As soon as this question was asked, Lin Ye and Yu Yucheng hurriedly replied at the same time: "No."
On the roof, Gong Shanshu, who was sticking there, raised his lips.
They arrived at Xinglin Town in advance and hid on the roof in advance, hiding in a place where others could not hide.
Gong Shanshu is the leader of the Geling Zi Zai Sect. The Zi Zai Sect has no restrictions and they practice everything, whether it is other people's skills or their own skills.
One of Gong Shanshu's best skills is the art of flexing his body and shrinking his bones. He is currently curled up in the small corner where the beams and the roof are connected, which is about the size of a fat cat that he can squeeze in.
.
Hearing Yu Yucheng hastily and Lin Ye reply "No" at the same time, he finally understood.
It turns out that Yu Yucheng hastily wants to defect.
He knew that the king wanted to kill him, and he was unable to resist. The only chance of survival was to escape to Dayu.
He not only went to send Xue Longxin away, but also wanted to take this opportunity to ask Emperor Jade for a place to stay.
It's a pity that how could Yuyu Chengchang really find a place to stay in Dayu? Not to mention that he couldn't pass the hurdles on the road. Even if he got to Dayu, Emperor Yu would not allow him to stay.
Emperor Jade trained him to compete for the throne of Dongbo Kingdom, not to become a defecting prince.
Lin Ye sat down cross-legged in the outer room and put the black umbrella aside.
It seems that the black umbrella is a little different from before, and it looks more bulging than before.
While breathing in and out, the body quickly relaxed and soon entered a state of emptiness.
Lin Ye's guess was correct, something would happen in the middle of the night.
But it was not Yuyu Chengchang's side who had the trouble.
It was just past midnight when suddenly someone outside shouted: "Something's happened!"
Hua Monk on the bed and Yu Yuchengqian under the bed both woke up immediately. The person on the bed sat up directly, and the person under the bed failed to sit up and hit his forehead.
"Don't even move."
Lin Ye immediately let out a soft cry, stretched out his hand and grabbed the black umbrella.
Outside, the sounds were getting louder and louder, and it could be heard that the soldiers of the Beiye Army were mobilizing.
After a while, Yuan Qingze arrived outside Lin Ye's door.
"Is Your Highness still okay?"
Lin Ye replied: "Still."
Yuan Qingze said: "Don't go out."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left. As soon as he left, the soldiers moved forward and protected the house layer by layer.
Yuan Qing strode to the middle of the yard and stood there. From time to time, people ran over to report.
"Gone."
"It's gone over there."
"There's no more here either."
People who wanted to report back came over one after another with ugly faces.
