Therefore, Helian just put on a straight face and said seriously, "Brother, tell me the truth!"
Seeing He Lian's behavior, He Rong waved to the female slave, and he only motioned for the female slave to go down first.
After the female slave left the tent, He Rong talked about today's events with her: "Today, two Yongdi fine craftsmen escaped from the camp. When I chased these two people, I was only injured by one of them. Fortunately, my subordinates rescued me in time, so I was fine."
Hearing He Rong's words, He Lian's expression also became serious: "Yongdi spies? Has the elder brother caught those two spies now?"
Seeing He Lian asking about this, He Rong's brows immediately frowned slightly.
However, he still replied in a low voice, "One of them was only beheaded in the woods outside the camp, and the other one is still being pursued. However, these people are obviously well prepared. I'm afraid they may not be able to pursue them." The spies who have escaped are an old man and a young man. When I left, I only found these things from the old man."
While He Rong was speaking, he handed He Lian the longevity lock and token from the table.
After hearing He Rong's description, He Lian also focused on the longevity lock. After all, this longevity lock was the only personal item at the moment.
Although this token belonged to the spies who could enter and leave the camp freely, it was a pity that she did not see the numbers on these tokens, and most of these spies were in Guanyuan Town, and they had no time at the moment. Recall these spies one by one and ask them carefully.
Therefore, the only thing that can determine his identity at the moment seems to be this longevity lock.
Because of Nuo Niang, Helian was quite familiar with some of the customs in Yongdi.
This kind of longevity lock is generally seen on the newly born children of Yongdi people. Therefore, judging from the longevity lock, this thing is probably something left by the old man's children.
Seeing He Lian looking at the longevity lock in a daze, He Rong also asked, "A-Lian, what did you see from this longevity lock?"
Hearing He Rong's words, He Lian shook his head.
However, his eyes fell back on He Rong's forehead, and he couldn't help but advise in a low voice, "Brother, no matter how urgent this matter is, you should treat the wound first."
He Rong shook his head and said, "No problem."
It's a pity that He Lian didn't listen to He Rong's words. He immediately raised the tent and then said to the soldiers outside the tent, "Hurry up and send a military doctor over."
When He Rong saw that He Lian had already gone to call the military doctors, he just said to He Lian, "A Lian, in this case, you might as well send someone to call the generals from all the major camps. I'm just afraid of those Yongdi spies. Based on our intelligence, it seems that this combat plan should be adjusted appropriately."
He Lian did not refute He Rong's words.
But only a moment later, after the two brothers had called in most of the girls in the camp and asked questions, the generals were just belatedly arriving.
When He Rong saw them arriving and saw that these people really couldn't figure out what was going on, he just waved his hand and asked his attendants to escort all these people back to a camp.
Tonight was destined not to be a peaceful night. When Zhang Lijin woke up from a nightmare, she heard the sound of people outside.
She remembered that Old Man Lu and the girl were out delivering letters tonight.
Now that she heard the hustle and bustle outside the tent, she couldn't help but get up lightly.
Unexpectedly, the girl who was keeping watch tonight was also a light sleeper. After hearing the sounds outside, she also got up.
When Zhang Lijin came out, the girl also woke up. She smiled and asked earnestly in Yongdi, "Do you want a drink of water?"
The woman in front of him is the maid arranged by Helian for him. This maid is also a person who can speak Yongdi and Qiangmo languages. However, she does not have a Yongdi face. What's more, Zhang Lijin has always been cautious, and she is Yongdi. She might not trust a woman with a handsome face, so she just shook her head and said, "No, I just want to go to the toilet."
After hearing this, the girl immediately put on her shoes and said, "How about I go there with you."
While she was talking, she had already put on her shoes. ..
Seeing that the other party was about to get up, Zhang Lijin immediately
He pressed the girl's shoulder and said, "That's not necessary. You should continue to sleep."
The girl wanted to speak again, but Zhang Lijin knocked the girl unconscious with a knife.
After she fainted, Zhang Lijin placed the girl properly on the couch aside.
After putting the people down, she gently opened the curtain and walked out of the tent directly.
At this time, the night rain was still pouring, and she could only see soldiers everywhere driving a large number of Yongdi female slaves from the central camp area where He Rong was located to another concentration camp tent. At the same time, the camp was only defended inside and outside. Martial law was also quickly instituted.
Zhang Lijin looked at the scene of so many troops and people outside, and felt a little uneasy for a moment. She was so angry that she easily blended into the crowd while the two guarding soldiers were not paying attention.
She lowered her voice and only asked the Yongdi woman next to her, "What were you asked just now?"
The woman was uneasy at this time and did not notice that Zhang Lijin was a temporary person. Although she did not know Zhang Lijin, looking at Zhang Lijin's face, she did not feel any vigilance. She just He whispered, "What else can you say? When His Highness He Rong saw me, he asked me to recognize a sign and a longevity lock."
Hearing this, Zhang Lijin was shocked.
longevity lock?
She had previously returned Lu Xingyan's longevity lock to Uncle Lu. Could it be that Uncle Lu was arrested?
When she thought of this, she couldn't help but ask the Yongdi woman, "What kind of longevity lock are you talking about?"
The Yongdi woman was already a little numb at this time. She just said impatiently, "What kind of longevity lock can it be? Isn't it just an ordinary longevity lock? I have asked several sisters, and they have all been asked the same question. Question, what? Didn’t you see the longevity lock?"
Hearing what the other party said, Zhang Lijin could only smile and say, "I just want to confirm whether what you and I saw are the same things. For example, whether the longevity lock is engraved with the word "Yan" and whether the "Yan" character inside is "Yan". And a skinny old man from Yongdi?"
After hearing that the content of Zhang Lijin's question finally seemed to contain some information that was different from her own, the woman calmed down and said, "The longevity lock does have the word "Yan" engraved on it, but there is no old man in the tent. "
Hearing this, Zhang Lijin also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that He Rong hadn't caught Uncle Lu and the others yet.
At the same time, Zhang Lijin saw that these people were about to be driven into the big tent, so she said no more at the moment. Only to sneak back into his tent again quietly.
When she returned to the tent, she was already wet, so she went back to the tent and planned to change out of her wet clothes.
After changing into clean clothes, she came out from behind the screen. Just when she was about to blow out the lights and continue sleeping, the felt blanket outside was lifted again.
Then, she saw He Lian lift the curtain and walk in.
He Lian obviously didn't expect to bump into Zhang Lijin, who was only wearing a middle coat, and he couldn't help being slightly startled.
Zhang Lijin looked at He Rong and whispered, "Your Highness, why are you here?"
He Lian then said softly, "I saw the light was on in your tent. I thought you were still awake, so I came over to check on you."
After hearing what He Lian said, Zhang Lijin only nodded slightly.
Naturally, Helian's eyes fell on the wet clothes in Zhang Lijin's hands. He couldn't help but asked in a low voice, "Why are your clothes wet?"
Hearing He Lian's words, Zhang Lijin said calmly, "I just went out to use the toilet and couldn't find an umbrella. I was soaked all over, so I changed out of my wet clothes."
Hearing Zhang Lijin's words, He Lian couldn't help but look at the maid who was sleeping in the outer room without knowing anything. He couldn't help but frown and said, "Why don't you ask her to find an umbrella for you? It's raining heavily today. If you are caught, It won’t be good if you get sick from the cold.”
"And this girl too. I asked her to spend more time with you, why did she fall asleep by herself?" He Lian seemed a little indignant as he spoke.
Seeing He Lian going to settle the score with that girl, Zhang Lijin naturally felt nervous. After all, this girl was not sleeping, but was knocked unconscious by a knife from her own hand. If He Lian came close to her now, she would be
You will definitely find a flaw on your side.
So when seeing He Lian going over to cause trouble for the maid, Zhang Lijin just pretended to be dizzy and fell on top of He Lian.
He Lian's reaction was naturally very quick. When he saw Zhang Lijin leaning towards him, he immediately supported Zhang Lijin's body, and then he asked with great concern, "What's wrong with you?"
Zhang Lijin pretended to be weak and said, "I feel a little dizzy. Why don't you help me back to bed and lie down first."
Hearing Zhang Lijin's words, He Lian was naturally nervous and hugged Zhang Lijin directly. Then he just carried Zhang Lijin back to the bed. Then he just tucked Zhang Lijin into bed and said, "I'll call the doctor."
Zhang Lijin shook her head when she heard this. She looked up at He Lian and whispered, "A Lian, I don't want a doctor, why don't you stay here and stay with me for a while."
How often had He Lian seen Nuo Niang being so fragile? It seemed that he had been pestering Nuo Niang and letting her stay with him since he was a child because he was afraid of the dark at night.
At this moment, Helian felt as if his and Nuoniang's roles had been reversed.
Thinking of this, He Lian couldn't help but feel a little tenderness in his heart.
He just whispered "Hello", and then he just stayed by Nuo Niang's side quietly.
It's just that Nuoniang kept Helian by her side, naturally not just to stop Helian. She only wanted to ask Helian, "Ah Lian, why is it so noisy in the tent outside tonight?"
