Chapter 106: A Little Too Smart

Chapter 106 A little too smart

On the way back to the military camp, Song Baoling told Jun Tingsheng what happened during her two days in the village, including using the military advisor's medicine to create a fake plague.

In particular, she talked about how she used a plan to drive a wedge between Evil Eagle and Zhan Ping. The success of suppressing the bandits this time was all due to this plan.

Jun Tingsheng saw that she was happy and did not stop her, but he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious in his heart. It was said that Song Baoling was only ten years old, so he was a little too smart when it came to suppressing bandits.

She was the one who figured out a way to save herself in the last incident in Liuzhou. Thinking about it, no wonder she was targeted by Jun Tianlin. She is simply a rare talent in the world.

"The Crown Prince is back!"

With a loud shout, the whole camp suddenly became excited. Pei Qi sent people to imprison the water bandits, and then went to Song Baichuan to report the battle situation.

Song Baoling followed Jun Tingsheng uneasily. Thinking of facing her stern father soon, she couldn't help but become nervous.

Seeing her nervous look, Jun Tingsheng couldn't help laughing and joking: "Now I know I'm scared. Why didn't I think of your dad when I ran away?"

"You, just ignore me every time your head gets hot. Let's see if you dare to run around in the future."

Hearing this, Song Baoling curled her lips in dissatisfaction. When she came to the big tent, she took a deep breath and then followed Jun Tingsheng in.

Pei Qi just finished reporting the battle situation. Seeing this, he saluted Song Baichuan and Jun Tingsheng and left.

As soon as the person left, there was a sudden silence in the big tent. Song Baoling stood there and did not dare to speak.

Song Baichuan looked at her with a gloomy face and spoke first: "You are so brave, aren't you? You dare to make the decision without permission and run into the water bandit's den. Do you take me seriously?"

No matter what, horizontal direction means death, vertical direction means death, anyway, today's scolding is inevitable.

After Song Baoling thought about it, she raised her head and saw Song Baichuan with a serious face, and suddenly she didn't have the courage to face it.

She didn't remember very clearly what happened five years ago, but in the past five years, she had a deep understanding of how harshly Song Baichuan treated his children.

"You dared to run into the bandits' den alone. Why don't you dare to say a word now?"

Jun Tingsheng glanced at Song Baoling who had his head buried, smiled silently, and said in support: "Master Hou, Ling'er has already realized his mistake. Just now he said that he shouldn't act recklessly on the road, so Master Hou, please stop blaming me."

She got it."

Hearing his words, Song Baoling quietly turned her head to look at him, the smile in her eyes was obvious.

"Dad, I know you are angry, but I only ran to the water bandits after careful consideration."

Song Baoling decided not to escape anymore and continued: "Those water bandits are all cunning. It will not be easy to eradicate them. But if we drag on, more and more people will be killed."

"Sacrifice only happens once a year. If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to find another chance to sneak in. Moreover, I did it only when I was sure, and the results proved that I did the right thing this time."

Song Baichuan's face turned ugly instantly. He knew what Song Baoling said, but he got angry when he thought of her sneaking into the bandit's den regardless of her own danger.

"You mean, not only should I not scold you, but I should also reward you for your meritorious service, right?"

Seeing that he seemed to be angry, Song Baoling instantly lost her previous momentum and walked over to hold his arm and act coquettishly.

"Dad, Ling'er knows that he was wrong. I promise to listen to you from now on. Please don't be angry with Ling'er, okay?"

Fortunately, Song Baichuan was also a hard-spoken person with a soft heart, not to mention that when he was facing his only daughter, his anger suddenly dropped a lot.

He sighed helplessly and said earnestly: "Ling'er, dad knows that you have been smart since you were a child, but sometimes your smartness often brings you trouble."

"You are still young now and don't understand many things, but you still don't want to be too sharp. Only in this way will you not be taken advantage of by people with bad intentions. Do you understand what dad means?"

Song Baoling nodded heavily, "I understand, you just want me to hide my clumsiness and not appear too smart."

Next to him, Jun Tingsheng chuckled. He really hoped that Song Baoling wouldn't be too smart, otherwise he wouldn't be able to deceive him in the future.

At night, Song Baichuan and Jun Tingsheng discussed returning to the capital. Both of them felt that Song Baoling had been away for too long and they had to go back as soon as possible to avoid suspicion.

So after discussion, the two decided that Jun Tingsheng would take Song Baoling back to the capital first, along with the leader of the water bandits, Evil Eagle.

Song Baichuan stayed behind to supervise the follow-up matters. After all matters were taken care of, he would lead the army back to Beijing to resume operations.

There was no room for delay. The next morning, the team led by Jun Tingsheng set off back to the capital.

Song Baoling had been out playing for such a long time and had suffered all the hardships she deserved, but when she thought of going back, she lost all energy.

Jun Tingsheng saw all her emotional changes, and when he was thinking about how to make her happy, a soldier suddenly came to report.

"Your Majesty, the leader of the water bandits wants to see Guard Lin and says he has important information to tell him."

Jun Tingsheng frowned when he heard this, "He can see my people whenever he can. Let him go back to Beijing to talk about anything."

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Baoling appeared in front of the two of them and said in a serious tone: "I'm going to see him."

Jun Tingsheng was a little unhappy, but seeing that Song Baoling insisted on going, he ordered the team to stop, and then went with her to see the evil eagle.

The two came to the prison car. Evil Eagle had shackles on his hands and feet. When he saw Song Baoling, his eyes burst out with deep hatred.

"I'm here, just say what you want."

Evil Eagle glared at Song Baoling angrily and asked, "Zhan Ping didn't betray me at all, did he?"

Song Baoling nodded and admitted without hesitation, "Yes, he didn't lie to you. Everything was a lie I told to alienate you."

"Don't blame me. If you hadn't done so many evil things, there wouldn't be so many people separated from their families and homeless. In the final analysis, you are the ones to blame for the current outcome."

Unexpectedly, the evil eagle suddenly laughed loudly after hearing this, "You are responsible for your own fault? How can people like you, who are born with no worries about food and clothing, understand those of us who were born in poverty."

"But don't be complacent. Even if you catch me, you may not be able to kill me."

Song Baoling was stunned when he heard this. He seemed to understand something. Just when he was about to ask questions, he suddenly heard the sound of arrows flying across his ears.

"call out!"

A sharp sword stabbed the evil eagle in the head. His eyes were still wide open, but his breath was gone. It was obviously a fatal blow.

This scene happened right in front of Song Baoling's eyes. She was stunned and her mind went blank. Before she could react, Jun Tingsheng stepped forward to protect her behind her.

"Ling'er, are you okay?"

After waiting for a moment and receiving no response, Jun Tingsheng turned to look at Song Baoling. Seeing that her expression was a little dull, her heart skipped a beat.
