Back to the shore, Bai Zhong first went to see Ying Shu and the others.

The little girl closed her eyes tightly and leaned quietly in Ying Shu's arms, not daring to see what happened.

"Are you okay?" Bai Zhong asked.

"fine!"

Ying Shu shook her head and said, "They can't do anything to me and the child."

Just be fine.

Bai Zhong looked a little embarrassed. He had also gone into the water to fight together just now. He was soaked, but he didn't care too much. He first asked the Qin soldiers to gather, and then sent people to search everywhere to see if there were any traces of the enemy on the shore, and whether there were any

Other clues.

Jing Yu was even more embarrassed. His previous graceful demeanor was now gone. Seeing that Bai Zhong and the others were fine, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise the two countries would go to war.

"Sir, how do you explain what happened tonight?"

Bai Zhong pointed the finger directly at Jing Yu.

This matter has nothing to do with their Chu country.

Jing Yu didn't know how to explain it, so he said helplessly: "General Bai, please calm down. You see, I was almost killed. I guess there must be someone who didn't want the general to come to Shouchun and did this deliberately. I will definitely find out about this matter."

Ying Shu pretended to be curious and asked: "Is there anyone else who doesn't want us to go to Shouchun?"

Jing Yu nodded and said: "Of course there are. To be honest with you two, there are war factions and peace factions in Shouchun. Your Majesty wants peace, but there are also people who want to destroy peace and start a war with Qin. These

People don’t want to see the general and princess arrive in Shouchun smoothly.”

After hearing the explanation, Bai Zhong did not continue to embarrass him.

"Okay, let's find a place to rest first!"

Now, except for Ying Shu and the little girl, everyone else is soaked to the skin. In addition, the mountain breeze is slightly cool at night. If it blows too much, it is easy to get sick. We have to set up camp as soon as possible to light a fire to keep warm, and then let people go into the water to salvage as much as possible.

Materials.

The people sent by Bai Zhong returned soon. They could find nothing. There were no other enemies nearby, and no trace of the enemies could be seen.

"Everyone, come back and rest!"

He didn't ask anyone to check again.

If the enemy does this, there should be nothing left behind.

Away from the corpses on the shore, Jing Yu found a flat place and asked someone to collect firewood and make a fire to keep warm.

The little girl opened her eyes and looked at Bai Zhong worriedly.

"I'm fine!"

Bai Zhong understood the meaning in her eyes and said again: "You must be very sleepy, please rest first."

"Thanks!"

The little girl said obediently, and took out a handkerchief to wipe away the water drops on Bai Zhong's face.

Ying Shu's heart almost melted: "The child is so good."

"From now on, she will be our daughter, okay?"

Bai Zhong said softly.

The little girl seemed to understand the word "daughter" and nodded happily, then snuggled into Ying Shu's arms and fell asleep quickly.

She had experienced her mother's death during the day and encountered this kind of thing again at night. She was already very tired.

Jing Yu on the other side still did not dare to be careless and strengthened the defense near the camp. As for which family in Chu State did this, he would even kill himself and let people find out after returning to Shouchun.

Seeing the neatness of Qin's army today, he felt that he could not be an enemy of Qin and absolutely could not start a war.

——

After dawn.

In Geyang City, in a large courtyard.

Zhao Feng just got up and walked out of the room. He was about to stretch his body when he saw Wu Shu walking around nervously and expectantly. From his look, he seemed to have been up all night thinking about what happened last night.

.

"Brother Wu, don't be impatient."

Zhao Feng didn't seem to take it to heart and laughed.

Wu Shu confessed: "I really want that person to die. How can I not be anxious? Why is there no news yet?"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone walked in from the gate, glanced at Zhao Feng, and said, "Master, everything has failed!"

"What did you say?"

Wu Shu suddenly jumped up with excitement.

How could it suddenly fail after looking forward to it all night?

Zhao Feng didn't react much and asked calmly: "How to fail?"

"They seemed to have discovered in advance that someone was drilling a boat underwater and responded quickly."

This person did not dare to get too close at the time, so he could not see the scene of Baizhong crossing the river. He just told what he could see and how the Qin army counterattacked, and finally said: "Everyone is dead."

Zhao Feng pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "It seems that that person is not easy to kill. Brother Wu, the person you asked me to kill has not told me the identity of that person, right? If he were an ordinary person, there would not be a large number of soldiers around him, let alone

Might survive my assassination."

He had long guessed that those were envoys from the Qin State, but he didn't know who they were. He deliberately said this to wait for Wu Shu to continue to confess.

Wu Shu hesitated for a moment and said: "That man's name is Baizhong, a general of Qin. Brother Zhao should have heard of his name, but why he came to Chu, I don't know."

"He is Bai Zhong!"

Zhao Feng said in surprise.

Of course he has heard of who Bai Zhong is. On the battlefield that destroyed the Three Jin Dynasties, he made a big splash and became famous. The commander of the attack on Huaiyang was also Bai Zhong. Recently, basically everyone in the aristocratic circle of Chu State has heard of Bai Zhong.

Zhong’s name.

Unexpectedly, the person who came to Chu as an envoy on behalf of Qin would be Baizhong.

No wonder the assassination failed.

"Brother Wu, why don't you explain clearly!"

Zhao Feng looked angry and said, "What's the difference between assassinating Bai Zhong and seeking death?"

Wu Shu knew he was in the wrong and apologized quickly, then asked: "Do we still have a chance? If so, I will write a letter back to my father and lower the price of colored glaze."

It was obvious that he wanted Bai Zhong to die.

"This matter needs to be carefully considered."

Zhao Feng didn't refuse, so it can be discussed.

Wu Shu immediately asked someone to write a letter and send it back to Xianyang.

In order to kill Bai Zhong, he didn't care about anything else. Before, he was worried that Wu Luo would find out through the price of Liuli. After experiencing the failure of the assassination last night, he was so anxious that he no longer cared about the consequences of being found out. He only wanted Bai Zhong to go.

die.

What happened at the beginning was his fault, but he didn't think he was wrong.

——

All the ships were gone. Even if Jing Yu could contact the family members, it would be difficult to send a large number of ships over in a short time.

They can only walk on foot.

"Sir, where should we go next?"

Bai Zhong asked.

Jing Yu looked ahead and said, "Let's go to Anfeng first and buy some carriages for transportation. I don't want to walk anymore."

Bai Zhong nodded and said: "That's fine!"

He hugged the little girl, followed Jing Yu and others, and continued on his way.

After walking for more than a day, they arrived at the city of Anfeng.

As soon as he entered, Jingyu immediately went to Nilv (hotel, inn) to rest.

There were so many of them that there was not enough room for even one Nilu, so Jing Yu could only let some of them station themselves outside the city, and then contact the county magistrate here through his own identity to take care of everything and move in smoothly.

"Are you tired?"

Bai Zhong asked softly.

The little girl shook her head slightly. When she was a refugee, she was much more tired than now. She said softly: "Can I call you Aweng? I...I have never seen Aweng."

"sure!"

Bai Zhong hugged her lovingly.

"Aweng!"

During this day or so, the little girl learned a lot of Guanzhong dialect spoken by Bai Zhong and others. She looked at Ying Shu and said, "Mom!"

Grandma!

As soon as she said these two words, her eyes turned red and she thought of her dead mother again.

"Don't cry, don't cry!"
Chapter completed!
