Noon.
Li Chenan took Xiao Wu and others towards the camp.
Although this battle was completely won.
Although this is the first battle that he has personally commanded in his previous life.
But Li Chenan didn't feel much joy.
Because this Xuanjia camp was carefully built by Changsun Jinghong for several years, they were not soldiers in the ordinary sense.
In addition, the ultimate goal of this battle was not accomplished.
Those who died were all small fish and shrimps, and the purpose of killing this guy was to capture Ning Zhixing, but unexpectedly, the guy was so cunning and escaped in the fog.
So from a strategic perspective, it's not really a victory.
"Why not arrest Ning Zhixing just ten miles away?" Wang Zhenghaoxuan asked curiously.
Li Chenan looked melancholy, "Because then the news will most likely leak to Kyoto."
"What should happen in Kyoto must be implemented according to the actual situation in Kyoto. But here, we are just acting in conjunction with Kyoto."
Amu was startled and turned to look at Li Chenan, "So, there is a big event in Kyoto?"
"I guess there will be, because Ji Tae will not sit still and wait for death."
Amu didn't ask again, thinking that no wonder Li Chenan asked Zhongli Ruoshui to go to Guangling. He might have expected it.
It's just that no matter how big things are in Kyoto, even if the sky falls, it has nothing to do with him.
All he has to do is ensure that Li Chenan is still alive before he dies.
The smell of mutton soup wafts in the wind.
Wang Zhenghaoxuan's nose shrugged and he didn't ask Li Chenan what he was going to do next.
The taste is very authentic, especially the smell.
Everyone is at war, who would stew mutton in the camp?
When Li Chenan and his party arrived at the camp, he was immediately surprised——
But it wasn't because of the two pots of steaming mutton, but because he saw Ning Zhixing tied up like a rice dumpling!
He immediately laughed.
The melancholy mood became brighter, and the smile was like the warm sun at noon.
He walked over quickly.
Xiao Baozi had seen their arrival.
She filled a bowl of real mutton, thought for a moment and handed it to Ning Chuchu, then said with a twinkle in her eye: "Feed your cow!"
Ning Chuchu's face turned red. Her brain was now gradually able to partially adapt to Xiao Baozi's rhythm, but her face was obviously not as thick-skinned as Xiao Baozi's.
So when she walked towards Li Chenan carrying the bowl of mutton, she acted like a shy little daughter-in-law:
"Are you hungry?"
"Eat a bowl first to fill your stomach."
Ning Chuchu stood in front of Li Chenan dressed in red makeup.
Li Chenan stopped and took the bowl of mutton, "It was very foggy this morning. I really didn't see it."
Ning Chuchu's face turned red again, and she said shyly, "It doesn't matter."
When Xiao Baozi heard this, his slender eyebrows raised slightly, hey, these two people... seem to be having an affair!
oh……
Xiao Baozi suddenly understood where the smell on Ning Chuchu came from.
As a result, some inappropriate images began to appear in her mind.
"What happened to him?"
Li Chenan picked up a piece of stewed mutton with his chopsticks and asked while eating.
"Sister Xiao captured her."
"..."
Li Chenan looked at Xiao Baozi, who was drinking soup as if nothing had happened, and said nonchalantly:
"He owed me money. I happened to meet him and brought him back."
Li Chenan was startled. How could Ning Zhixing owe money to Miss Xiao, two people who couldn't be beaten with eight poles?
Ning Zhixing wanted to die.
Who the hell do I owe money to? !
Then you obviously robbed me of my ten thousand taels of silver, okay?
Li Chenan glanced at Xiao Baozi suspiciously, and while eating mutton, he came and sat down opposite Ning Zhixing.
"meet again."
"I remember the first time we met on the Mid-Autumn Festival night. The battle you put up was actually quite good..."
Li Chenan ate another piece of mutton and said after a while:
"It's a pity that there was no moon that night, and it's a pity that His Highness didn't intend to invite me for a drink that night."
"The fate between you and me is really too shallow... By the way, are you hungry?"
Ning Zhixing swallowed, "I'm hungry!"
"Amu, please untie Your Highness."
Amu came over and untied the rattan from Ning Zhixing's body.
Ning Zhixing moved his legs and feet, "Are you going to let me go?"
"No," Li Chenan shook his head, "You can't let me feed you, right? Besides, I always think that people have the right to eat a full meal before they die... Amu, help His Highness get a bowl of soup."
Ning Zhixing's eyes narrowed slightly, his acupuncture points were restrained by Xiao Baozi, and he had no ability to resist now.
But he didn't believe that Li Chenan really dared to kill him.
He took the bowl handed over by Amu, looked at it, and raised his eyes, "It's really soup!"
"Well, actually the nutrients are all in the soup... Let me ask you a few things."
"Ask, I may not answer you."
Li Chenan finished the mutton in the bowl and drank up the soup. He handed it to Ning Chuchu who was standing beside him. He lifted up his sleeves and wiped his mouth before looking at Ning Zhixing.
"What kind of person is Concubine Li in the harem?"
Ning Zhixing was suddenly startled. He originally thought that Li Chenan would ask about the details of Changle Palace, or ask Prime Minister Ji who secretly had other accomplices.
He never expected that Li Chenan would ask such a question.
After pondering for three breaths, Ning Zhixing took a sip of the soup, which was a little hot.
"The daughter of Duke Yan and the younger sister of Yan Jidao."
"I'm not asking about her life experience, but about her character, or some of her different characteristics."
The corners of Ning Zhixing's mouth curled up, and a sneer appeared on his face.
"She is probably the one with the deepest conspiracy in the harem!"
"She doesn't ask anything about the harem, and she seems to be indifferent to the world, but my grandfather reminded me that the one I need to be most careful about is Concubine Li!"
Li Chenan raised his eyebrows and said, "Let's talk and listen."
"The Duke of Yan's Palace seems to be standing with grandpa and is supporting me to take over the East Palace... But in fact, this is just a plot for Ning Zhiyuan by the Duke of Yan's Palace by leveraging my grandfather's power. !”
"Back then, Lu Zhanxiao's whole family was wiped out, and Duke Yan played a role in fueling the flames."
"And the death of Queen Lu in the winter of the same year... the mother-in-law said that this was probably Concubine Li's method!"
Li Chenan pondered slightly, "What's the basis for this?"
"Because Fengyi Palace, where the Queen lives, was heavily guarded after Lu Zhanxiao's family was wiped out."
"The emperor was worried that Queen Lu, who was about to give birth, committed suicide, so Fengyi Palace at that time could be said to be the place with the most experts."
"But unfortunately, a few months after Empress Lu gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, the emperor's eldest son disappeared, and Empress Lu hanged herself..."
Ning Zhixing took another sip of soup.
"Yan Jidao and Mrs. Fan were not great masters at that time. There were two great masters in Ningguo at that time."
"One is beside Queen Lu. His name is Qin Huaiyu. He is not a eunuch, but... a member of the royal family!"
"The other one is said to be beside Concubine Li. He is a eunuch named Eunuch He, but this Eunuch He is extremely mysterious, and even the mother and concubine have only heard about it."
"In the winter of the third year of Zhaohua, it snowed heavily that day."
"On the top of the Forbidden City in the palace, two great masters had a great battle."
"It was that night that the emperor's eldest son disappeared, and Queen Lu committed suicide by hanging from a beam... Your grandfather Li Chunfu went to the palace that night, so your grandfather should know the whereabouts of the emperor's eldest son best."
"As for you... maybe you are really my eldest brother!"
Ning Chuchu on the side immediately tightened her clothes.
Li Chenan shook his head, "What will be the outcome of the battle between the two great masters?"
"It is said that both sides were injured and later died."
"What kind of person is Princess Liyang?"
"The king's sister-in-law married into the Duke of Yan State in the fourth year of Zhaohua... She married her husband Yan Jidao."
"Why are you asking her?"
Li Chenan pondered for three breaths, "I suspect that she is the real culprit of Queen Lu's death!"
