"Palace Master Liu, the north he mentioned could not be what you mentioned..."
Li Yi seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and he casually picked up a grape on the table and threw it into his mouth. He didn't seem to notice Liu Chengyong's solemn expression at all.
He even winked at the person below who came to report the message, and did not take the so-called urgent information to heart at all.
He still looked relaxed.
The person who came was none other than Fu Yuan, the Third Young Master Zhong.
He was originally a small leader of the border army. The reason why he appeared here to report was because of something he encountered during his previous patrol.
"Tell me what you just encountered from beginning to end, without hiding anything."
Liu Chengyong now showed his identity as the master of the palace.
Although he is not the direct superior of the border army, he has the power and responsibility to temporarily take charge of everything in the absence of the real superior of the border army.
In fact, during the period when Chen Han's guard disappeared, Liu Chengyong's contacts with Guo Shenjun, his old acquaintance in the military camp, became much more frequent.
This is also a matter of every approach.
In order to stabilize the situation, the subordinates must find someone who is on the same level as the original boss to support the situation when a senior member of the party is absent.
It doesn't matter if one manages the army and the other controls the people.
The important thing is to help each other.
The reason why Fu Yuan came to Fucheng to report was because it was the closest place, and also because of the person present.
Fu Yuan glanced at Li Yi, who seemed to have a relaxed expression, and his original solemn expression relaxed a little.
Knowing that this expert is here, many things may become much easier.
If Li Yi knew that he had such a high status in this person's mind, he probably wouldn't be happy.
He still understands that with greater ability comes greater responsibility.
Therefore, even though he did not understand the seriousness of what Fu Yuan said, he could still see some clues from their expressions.
The reason why he maintains that indifferent expression is just to maintain his persona at this moment.
Yes, according to Moros, even in normal times, as long as she comes into contact with people in this time and space, she needs to wear a mask to maintain the image of being a worldly leader.
Of course, the so-called image here is actually what he appears on the surface now.
Even in this seemingly relaxed atmosphere.
"Look carefully, this is probably the beginning of the real thing."
"???"
"What do you mean?"
For some reason, Li Yi suddenly felt a very bad feeling.
Doesn't this matter have anything to do with me?
Seemingly reading his thoughts, Moros continued in his mind.
"Originally, I wanted to say that this matter had nothing to do with you, but because of my appearance, it does matter even if it doesn't."
"..."
Li Yi was a little speechless. He didn't know at this time that what Moros said was actually a pun.
Because in addition to his need to evolve and let Li Yi stay, it was also because of the place where he appeared at that time, which led to a series of subsequent events.
This ultimately led to the current consequences.
It's like a butterfly inadvertently flapping its wings on the east coast, causing an unprecedented tsunami to set off on the other coast.
By the way, talking about this, you still don’t know what Fu Yuan reported, right?
Let's restore what happened.
Sounds simple.
As a small leader of the border army, Fu Yuan, according to routine regulations, today is the day he leads the patrol.
Since we are on the border, even in the capital, we need to take more precautions. This kind of patrol has become more frequent and intensive since the arrival of the Daman Army.
This actually has the effect of stabilizing people's hearts.
Otherwise, given the poor population on the border, without a strong sense of prevention and adequate patrol protection, the border guards here would have chosen to leave their homes long ago.
Such people's regulations were not immediately abolished even after the Daman Army was eliminated.
Because that's just one of the biggest threats.
In a word, even the biggest threat is gone.
The soldiers of the frontier army who had been fighting for many years did not dare to be more relaxed and vigilant.
As for whether there are other reasons... of course there are.
But it has little to do with the current plot, so I won’t go into details here.
In short, Fu Yuan went out of the city gate with a group of soldiers as usual, despite the snowstorm.
Originally I just thought that there would be nothing wrong with such a heavy wind and snow, so I just went on a routine patrol and went back to drink ginger tea to ward off the cold.
People are lazy, even if they are still vigilant, but after a big battle followed by another battle (to drive away the beast tide) and a heavy snowfall, anyone will become tired and just want to rest.
Even an outsider like Li Yi couldn't help but feel exhausted after experiencing these three major events. He recovered after taking a good rest at home for a while.
Not to mention the people who were at the center of the trouble.
In comparison, Fu Yuan can be considered very dedicated.
Even his subordinates, who admired him very much, could not help but feel some resentment in their hearts when he went out on patrol in such a blizzard.
Little did he know that it was this dedication that allowed him to meet that person and save him.
"Name."
"Chen Binghao, sir..."
"I didn't ask you and you don't need to tell me."
"..."
Fu Yuan looked at the man in front of him, who was otherwise fine except for his haggard expression, with an unkind look on his face. A fire couldn't help but rise in my heart.
The reason is that in order to save him just now, he injured several of his men!
This is not the most important thing.
The key is that when I asked him, he didn't say anything. He dragged his weak body and just shouted that he wanted to see the highest official in the city.
Fu Yuan was a young man after all. In a rage, he took the other party directly to the interrogation room and locked him up in the name of interrogating a spy.
"Tell me why you came."
"I want to see the palace master."
Chen Binghao spoke stubbornly, even though his body was extremely weak.
Although he was very grateful to this young officer in Fucheng for saving him when he was in danger.
But there was no gratitude or resentment in his heart.
There was only one thought in his mind.
A common wish that encompasses hundreds of innocent souls from far away.
When meeting the Palace Master, tell the truth exactly as it is, and make the truth known to the public.
Because this matter had not spread through any channels before, no one in Fucheng must have known about it.
In fact, it was probably too late for him to say it at this time.
I'm afraid the army is already on its way...
Thinking of the boss who protected his body and the hundreds of brothers who had shared life and death together.
Chen Binghao couldn't help clenching his fists, his nails made deep marks, and blood seeped out bit by bit, but he didn't notice it at all.
"Sir, please let me see the Palace Master. I have very important information to report to the Palace Master immediately! It's extremely urgent!"
Facing the ordinary-looking man with an unknown identity opposite him (in order to conceal his traces and identities, almost all the people in the Intelligence Department were ordinary-looking people wearing civilian clothes), Fu Yuan couldn't help but show a sarcastic expression.
"Want to see the Palace Master? No problem, tell me your reasons."
Chen Binghao was startled.
"I do have urgent military information that I want to report to the Palace Master. Sir..."
"I know!"
Fu Yuan waved his hand to interrupt him, with a disapproving look on his face, thinking that the biggest threat to the imperial court had been eliminated, why are you still fooling around here?
Do you think I would believe it?
"Tell me, I'm reporting to the palace master. Is there any problem?"
"But……"
"Stop it!"
Fu Yuan interrupted him again harshly.
"Because of you, I have injured several brothers, and now you are still trying to shirk when I ask you something. Do you believe that I will put you in prison directly so that you will never see the master of the palace in your life?"
Intelligence soldier Chen Binghao fell silent.
He didn't expect that the officer was settling a score with him.
Because of the previous battle, the officer who happened to meet him injured several people.
Now he is taking personal revenge!
Surprisingly, Chen Binghao didn't have a trace of anger, but instead had a trace of inexplicable warmth.
This reminds me of my own commander.
"Hao, sir, let me tell you."
"Huh? What did you say?"
Fuyuan didn't expect that the other person suddenly became enlightened for some reason, and looked at the person opposite who had a serious expression for some reason with a blank expression.
"That's what happened."
Fu Yuan, who was standing in the main hall, had almost the same look as intelligence soldier Chen Binghao at this moment.
"Are you saying that the border people are colluding with the Nomad Foot and preparing to rebel?"
Liu Chengyong raised his beard, said these words from his mouth, and looked at the junior officer in front of him seriously.
Li Yi, on the other hand, squinted his eyes and seemed indifferent to what was happening in front of him.
