Qin Zhen looked at Lou Yan calmly, and after a while, she said, "Are you afraid I'm cold?"

Lou Yan's heart thumped, and then he looked corrected.

"It's windy here," Lou Yan whispered, "It's not good for you or me."

Qin Zhen seemed to smile, but when Lou Yan looked up, there was no expression on the other person's face, as if he had just glanced like an illusion.

Lou Yan himself knew that this statement was untenable. If Qin Zhen asked a few more questions, he would probably be exhausted.

Even he himself couldn't explain why he reached out to Qin Zhen at that moment.

Fortunately, Qin Zhen did not ask much, but followed his wishes and led people into the mountain gate, found a place to go against the leeward, and sat on the ground.

Seeing that she was so careless, Lou Yan sat down not far away.

"Tell me, what do you want to tell me?" Qin Zhen asked.

Lou Yan pursed his lips and said softly: "I was lucky that day, and I was helped by the girl. I have been bothering me for many days since then. I am really sorry. Now the wind and snow have stopped, so we thought it was time to leave."

Qin Zhen narrowed her eyes: "Want to leave?"

Lou Yan nodded: "I haven't returned for a few days, I'm afraid the elderly at home are worried. In addition... my master stays in bed for many days and needs to go down the mountain to recuperate in time."

After hearing this, Qin Zhen nodded: "The reason is very good."

Lou Yan: "Then we will..."

"But you can't go down the mountain," Qin Zhen interrupted Lou Yan and said expressionlessly: "My Longhu Mountain is so good. Many people think they can't come yet. Why should you hurry to leave?"

Lou Yan finally realized something was wrong.

Qin Zhen wanted to detain them.

But why?

To Qin Zhen, the two of them are just ordinary people and have no value.

Qin Zhen seemed to see through his thoughts, smiled and said, "You forgot that this is not an inn and restaurant, so you can come and leave as soon as you want."

Lou Yan fell silent for a moment, and it was neither right to answer these words, nor was it not to answer them.

In any case, they were saved by others and entered other people's nests. Now they found that the other party was a bandit and wanted to escape. What would the other party think?

Qin Zhen stood up and looked down at Lou Yan, half-joking and half-seriously: "You know where this is, so should you consider joining us?"

Lou Yan was stunned: "What?"

"Join us," said Qin Zhen: "Follow me, I promise to be nicer to you than your original master."

After a while, Lou Yan said, "Sorry, I can't betray my master."

Qin Zhen shrugged and said, "That's a pity."

After saying that, I will leave.

Lou Yan quickly got up and followed and asked, "Then can I write a letter from home? I just want to report my safety to my family."

Qin Zhen didn't look back and threw down a sentence: "No."

Lou Yan: "..."

He didn't ask for help from Qin Zhen. As soon as he returned to the room, he found that there were more than twice as many guards outside the house than before. He was strictly guarded and could not even fly out.

Lou Yan returned to the house with a serious expression.

Xiao Jue was half leaning against the head of the bed at this time, and he was extremely energetic. He had a pale face and thin skin after taking the medicine, and it was difficult for him to take two steps down the ground.

When he saw Lou Yan coming back, he immediately asked in anger: "Where did you go just now?"

Lou Yan: "I talked to Miss Qin."

Xiao Jue's expression sank: "What are you saying?"

"Let her let us go down the mountain," said Lou Yan.

Xiao Jue sat up all of a sudden, almost impatient: "Did she agree? When will we leave? Go away quickly, if you drink the medicine, my life will be explained here."

Lou Yan stood still and didn't move.

Xiao Jue's face changed: "If you have something to say."

"We are afraid we can't leave for the time being."

Lou Yan pushed open half of the window, and the bandits came and went outside, more than twice as many as before.

Lou Yan closed the window again, turned around, and said to Xiao Jue: "Master, although I don't know why, Qin Zhen wants to keep us."

——

Qin Zhen has to go to the conference hall every day these days to ask if the spies sent by Qin Hong have returned.

After she and Lou Yan separated on that day, she went to the meeting hall again.

As soon as I entered the door, I had just said a few words to Qin Hong, and a man stumbled in.

The father and daughter change color at the same time.

Qin Hong got up, picked up the man, and asked in a deep voice: "What's wrong?"

This person was the spy he sent out to inquire about the trends of the court.

At this time, the man was covered in blood and staggered, relying on one breath to support him.

"Big, the boss," the man's voice was hoarse and his tone was rapid: "The court sent Yuan Chu to lead 30,000 troops to set out soon to suppress the bandits in Longhu Mountain. The emperor ordered that it was necessary to eliminate the bandits in Longhu Mountain and bring Qin Hong to the case."

After saying a word, the man could no longer hold on and fainted.

Qin Hong's face was gloomy and he ordered someone to take the spy down for treatment.

He turned to look at Qin Zhen and said, "What your elder brother said in his letter is not false."

Qin Zhen was not surprised and just said, "Father, make plans."

Qin Hong raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and remained silent for a long time.

Qin Zhen waited for him silently for a while before whispering: "Yuan Chu is the youngest son of the Minister of War. He joined the army at a young age and established a reputation in the army. Now the frontier battle has been settled, and he has been entrusted with important tasks shortly after he returned to the capital. I believe that he will not have lost the reputation of Major General."

"Father, Yuan Chu is not easy to deal with." Qin Zhen said: "We are not opponents."

She knew Yuan Chu.

In the last life, Yuan Chu was a powerful general under Lou Yan.

He was young and had a sense of madness, and he didn't listen to anyone except Lou Yan.

But if you are such a person, if you put it on the battlefield, you will be a hungry wolf.

At that time, when Xiao Jue ascended the throne, many people who had helped him were rewarded by everyone, but Lou Yan was abnormally unrewarded. For this reason, Yuan Chu even broke into Xiao Jue's bedroom with a gun, trying to seek justice for Lou Yan.

In the end, Lou Yan knelt outside Xiao Jue's door for an hour before saving Yuan Chu's life.

In short, Yuan Chu is now a wild wolf cub who has not been tamed. He takes the lead in encircling and suppressing Longhu Mountain. Longhu Mountain cannot get a chance.

Qin Hong looked at Qin Zhen and said in a depressed manner: "How can you gain the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige?"

Qin Zhen was anxious: "Father, think about it yourself. Eight thousand versus 30,000, where is the chance of winning?"

Qin Hong: "Even if you die, it's better than being a lackey for the court!"

"It's better to do things for the court than to lose your life!" Qin Zhen was so sarcastic in front of her father for the first time: "Eight thousand brothers, are they not their parents and relatives? Do they want to be bandits by nature? You don't want to be a hawk or dog in the court, so have you ever asked them if they want to?"

Qin Zhen took a breath and said softly: "Father, I...I want you to be alive."

She didn't want to watch her father leave like in her previous life.
