In the deep jungle of Suzhou Border Pass, there are many houses within a radius of ten miles, with a post every three steps and a sentry every five steps.
These men and girls were wearing martial arts uniforms, carrying crossbows on their backs, and standing on both sides with daggers. In the largest courtyard, several old men sat there with solemn expressions. In front of everyone, Cui Ying'er and A man stood across from me.
The man clasped his hands in front of the elderly people and said respectfully: "Uncles, I think the death of my second uncle is all due to Cui Ying'er. If she hadn't insisted on her own way, she wouldn't have killed anyone else if she had to go to Long Yu." trap."
Cui Ying'er raised her eyebrows: "Cui Biao, what do you mean!"
Cui Biao smiled ferociously: "Don't you understand what I mean? Cui Ying'er, you are responsible for the death of my second uncle!"
Cui Ying'er was slightly angry: "Cui Biao, fart your mother!"
"Long Yu killed so many of my people, and also accused me of having an affair with Maitreya Buddhism, which made us unable to raise our heads in the green forest. Not only did you people not ask, but you also asked us to take refuge in Maitreya Buddhism. , you can do such a heartless thing, but we can’t!"
Cui Biao snorted coldly: "Don't go online here. Didn't you say that the plan was thorough to ensure that nothing went wrong? Why were there so many casualties? Besides, except for you who escaped death, everyone else died outside. Cui Ying'er , I think you are the traitor in the village!"
"You!" Cui Ying'er's face turned red with anger: "Stop spitting blood here!"
Cui Biao snorted: "What, are you being told? To tell you the truth, not only do I doubt you, but everyone here today also doubts you!"
"Your martial arts, Cui Ying'er, is good, but Long Yu isn't a freeloader, right? Why are you unscathed, while my second uncle and the others are all dead? Huh, don't think we don't know anything. I've arranged for someone to go find out. Passed. Where is Dong Yong!"
A thin man with sinister eyebrows came out. He cupped his hands to everyone above and said, "Elders, I saw the bodies of the second master and several brothers in the city. They were all hung on the flagpole for public display."
When everyone heard this, they immediately cursed.
Dong Yong coughed lightly and said, "Everyone, I also got some news."
Having said this, Dong Yong glanced at Cui Ying'er: "I heard that this time there is a spy within us, helping Long Yu deal with the second master, in order to eliminate our vitality!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
The old people sitting above looked at Cui Ying'er, and Cui Ying'er hurriedly explained: "Elders, that's not what happened. We were going to assassinate Long Yu that day, and he happened to be hosting a banquet for the newly arrived Zhenbei University. General Liu Yijin, so the surrounding defenses are tight, I wanted to persuade my second uncle, but he didn't listen."
"That's nonsense!" Cui Biao snorted coldly: "Even if my second uncle doesn't listen, there are still so many brothers following me. If you really said this, this result will definitely not happen."
Next to Cui Ying'er, a pretty maid said angrily: "Cui Biao, don't slander my lady!"
Cui Biao glared: "You're a girl, you don't have the right to speak, so get out of here!"
The maid Xiang Ling said angrily: "My lady is the eldest lady of the cottage, but you are bent on bringing down my lady. I think if the person in this cottage who looks most like a spy is you!"
Cui Biao was immediately furious: "That's nonsense. I, Cui Biao, have never come down from the mountain. How could I possibly pass on the message? You are just shouting to catch the thief!"
Xiangling said angrily: "Don't think I don't know, just after the eldest lady and the second master came down the mountain, what did you do sneaking down the mountain in the middle of the night?"
Everyone looked at Cui Biao. Cui Biao was stunned and said angrily: "I went down the mountain to get medicine. My father's old injury relapsed in the middle of the night!"
Among the superiors, a pale and thin old man coughed lightly: "I did have a recurrence of an old injury that day, so I asked Biao'er to go down the mountain to buy medicine. I didn't expect that the eldest lady misunderstood."
An old man in the center stood up, glanced at Cui Ying'er complicatedly, and sighed: "Okay, the village will naturally investigate this matter, but Cui Ying'er is not allowed to leave the village until the results come out! "
Cui Ying'er was stunned: "Dad!"
The old man waved his hand: "Okay, this matter is settled!"
Cui Ying'er wanted to say something else, but was pulled away by Xiang Ling beside her: "Miss, let's go back first and then talk."
In the room, Cui Ying'er looked at the two men standing at the door, turned to Xiang Ling and said, "I didn't expect that he would become a suspect now!"
Cui Ying'er sat there angrily: "Xiang Ling, I can't be here, I want to go down the mountain to avenge my second uncle!"
"Ying'er, don't mess around!" An old voice sounded outside the door, and Cui Ying'er stood up: "Dad, I want to avenge my second uncle!"
Cui Dahai's eyes were complicated and he said: "Ying'er, let's put aside the matter of revenge for your second uncle for now. What your uncles mean is that you can't leave until the truth is found out, and all your duties in the village will be handed over to you." Cui Biao is responsible."
"What?" Cui Ying'er was stunned: "Dad, it's not like you don't know what Cui Biao and the others think. If Cui Biao takes power, he will definitely find a way to contact the people of Maitreya Buddhism. Once we have contact with Maitreya Buddhism, When Buddhist people are involved, it is difficult to distance themselves from each other.”
Cui Dahai sighed: "The Cui family's old village has always been a solitary one, but many surrounding villages are secretly related to Maitreya Buddhism, and Maitreya Buddhism also sends money and food. Now all the heroes are fighting against each other. We, the Cui family’s old village, look down upon us, and if this continues, our Cui family’s old village will definitely be replaced by others.”
Cui Ying'er said angrily: "Dad, Maitreya Buddhism harms the people. If we are complicit in this, what will happen to our Cui family's old village?"
Cui Dahai hesitated for a moment, "Okay, let's talk about this matter like this for now, and we will talk about everything after the investigation."
After saying that, Cui Dahai walked out directly: "Go ahead, no one is allowed to let Cui Yinger out without my order!"
Cui Ying'er sat there angrily: "This damn Cui Biao!"
"Miss, I think if there is really a leak in the village, it must be Cui Biao. During the past few days when you were away from the village, Cui Biao said bad things about you."
Cui Ying'er turned around and walked around Xiang Ling, and whispered: "Xiang Ling, you have to do me a favor."
Xiangling's eyes flashed: "Miss, you don't want me to help you escape, do you?"
Cui Ying'er nodded: "In order to prove my innocence, I must kill Long Yu and Liu Yijin to avenge my second uncle!"
...
Northern border.
The eldest princess Gong Hanyan looked at Liu Yijin who walked in in white with a cold expression: "The general finally knows his responsibility?"
Liu Yijin hurriedly knelt down and said, "Liu Yijin, who is of humble rank, has met the eldest princess."
Seeing Liu Yijin salute respectfully, the eldest princess snorted: "Why, you finally know that you are coming to the border?"
Liu Yijin said with a smile: "Isn't there something delayed?"
"Something's wrong?" Gong Hanyan smiled coldly: "What's wrong? Your Majesty's personally appointed General Zhenbei, Chief of the Supervision Department, and Commander of the Wolf Guards actually delayed the military and national affairs because of the emergence of Maitreya Buddhism in a small county. Big deal? Liu Yijin, do you know your guilt?"
There were generals standing around, and everyone's eyes were full of ridicule.
These generals all worked their way up from the border. What they valued was actual military merit. Although Liu Yijin and Wei Ming went out to kill the Daxia Guards, that was just a coincidence. That’s all.
Besides, how can this guy be the general of an army of 100,000 people?
Among the generals, Lu Ziang and Han Meng looked at Liu Yijin with cold eyes. They traveled day and night from the imperial capital to the border. Firstly, they wanted to show off to the eldest princess, and secondly, they wanted to be ruthless. Liu Yijin's majesty was brutally killed.
A small long-term worker just got the position of general by charming His Majesty. Such a person is of no use.
Lu Ziang said calmly: "Reporting to the eldest princess, our army on the left and right arrived on time, but I am not happy with my humble position."
Gong Hanyan hummed: "Say."
"I don't think the general knows how to lead troops in war!"
"I used to serve in the army in my humble position, and I have never seen the army march forward without the coach disappearing."
Han Meng on the side also nodded and said: Yes, this is within the territory of Daqian. If it really goes out of the border, the 100,000 troops will become the target of others' bows and arrows.
The words of Han Meng and Lu Ziang aroused the ridicule of some generals.
"Such a general is really majestic. I heard that the general brought two women to the border. In such a windy and cold place, don't freeze that delicate lady."
"That's right, we heard that the general is originally from Qinghe Town. Qinghe Town is only half a day's journey from the border. I think the general can command the war at the border from Qinghe Town."
Everyone burst into laughter.
The eldest princess Gong Hanyan glanced at Liu Yijin coldly and said: "Liu Yijin, although you are a general, I am responsible for hundreds of thousands of troops at the border. If you are not punished, it will inevitably cause chaos. Other people’s dissatisfaction.”
Liu Yijin scratched his head in embarrassment: "Then how will the eldest princess punish me?"
Gong Hanyan snorted: "What do you think?"
Liu Yijin stretched out his palm and said sheepishly: "How about the eldest princess give me a five-day holiday?"
"What?" the eldest princess laughed angrily: "Liu Yijin, do you believe that this princess tied you up?"
Liu Yijin said awkwardly: "How about four days?"
"Three days!" The eldest princess snorted coldly: "Three days is my limit. If I can't see your people after three days, then you just wait."
Liu Yijin smiled and cupped his hands around him and said, "Everyone, I'm sorry, I'm asking for leave!"
"Oh, I suddenly remembered something." Liu Yijin said to everyone with a smile: "I came in a hurry this time, I only brought some local specialties. I will ask Erzhuzi to deliver them to your tent in a while."
Souvenir?
A cold smile appeared on the corner of the eldest princess' lips: "Liu Yijin, you bribed my general in front of me, do you think you don't take me seriously?"
