Everything that happened in the dungeon later was kept secret by everyone in the entire military camp.
That day, Xie Xun ordered Ying Er to take Da Wanlie to the deepest part of the dungeon, and all the guards left at Xie Xun's signal.
Xie Xun didn't know what tricks he used. When Qin Rushuang saw Da Wanlie again, everything seemed normal to him. However, in just one night, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
She came today and wanted to ask Da Wanlie something, but Xie Xun naturally came uninvited.
Qin Rushuang glanced at Xie Xun and did not stop him.
The dungeon was dark, damp and cold. Because they knew in advance that Qin Rushuang was coming, the jailer had cleaned it in advance.
Even so, the air is still filled with the smell of blood that has been hard to dissipate over the years.
Da Wanlie was placed alone in a dungeon.
"King...Princess." Unexpectedly, Da Wanlie did not call Qin Rushuang by his name.
Qin Rushuang looked at him carefully. Although Xie Xun tried to hide it, Qin Rushuang could still tell that Xie Xun should have lynched Da Wanlie.
"Well, I have something to ask you." Qin Rushuang said calmly.
Da Wanlie nodded quickly, "Of course, you can ask."
As he said this, his eyes did look towards Xie Xun unconsciously, and whenever his eyes met with Xie Xun's, he would always avoid them in horror.
He was even very honest when it came to Qin Rushuang's cross-examination. He did it obediently without Qin Rushuang using any means.
In fact, what Qin Rushuang wanted to ask was nothing important.
Everyone knows each other about the military situation and personnel stationed in several border countries.
Not long after Da Wanlie returned to Dayan, many news about Dayan's troops and horses were even lagging behind what Qin Rushuang knew.
The only useful information I got from him was probably about the internal strife in Great Yan.
King Dayan spent his whole life in the army, but he was still an infatuated person who only doted on his queen.
The queen's only son is the eldest prince of the Yan Kingdom.
The eldest prince received the most orthodox teachings since he was a child, so he was brave and good at fighting, and worked hard to govern. He was very popular among the people in the Yan Kingdom. King Yan also liked the eldest prince very much, and even stated many times that this son looked like him when he was young.
On the other hand, Da Wanlie was only born by a maid, and she was born by a scheming maid who crawled into bed while King Yan was drunk.
The result can be imagined——
The maidservant Wanda Wanlie was sentenced to death. Da Wanlie was raised by a wet nurse and hated Queen Dayan so much that she learned all kinds of privacy methods.
That's why a few years ago, after Dayan was defeated, he was sent to Daqi as a hostage.
According to what Da Wanlie said, the Queen of Dayan King was dead and King Dayan was dying.
Two princes are vying for the throne.
Although in Qin Rushuang's view, there is nothing to fight for, Da Wanlie will lose.
"That's what I said. In fact, it's useless for you to capture me. My father doesn't care about me at all, and he won't stop his crusade against Da Qi just because I was captured alive."
After finishing all the questions, Qin Rushuang nodded: "You only need to tell me what I asked, and the rest has nothing to do with you."
After saying that, he was actually ready to leave.
Behind Qin Rushuang, Da Wanlie glanced hastily at Xie Xun.
Xie Xun nodded vaguely.
Da Wanlie spoke out to persuade him to stay: "Princess! I have something to tell you about what happened to Qin Fanghao. It was Yu Zaizhong and I who planned it, and what happened later happened. Qin Fanghao is not your biological sister.
....”
"I know."
Qin Rushuang turned around and interrupted him: "I know everything you want to say."
Da Wanlie closed his mouth, glanced at Xie Xun as if asking for help, and said hesitantly: "Well, there are actually many misunderstandings between you and King Huai..."
"If in the Yan Kingdom, a person was deceived and killed someone, would he be beheaded?" Qin Rushuang asked calmly.
"Ah? Of course... of course, but..."
Before Da Wanlie wanted to say anything, Qin Rushuang asked again: "Will Dayan's laws be lenient just because this person is just temporarily confused?"
"...Neither will."
Qin Rushuang laughed softly, not knowing who she was talking to.
"Isn't that okay? It's the same in Daqi."
After saying that, Qin Rushuang turned and left.
Xie Xun looked at Qin Rushuang's back, unable to explain herself.
Yes, it’s the same everywhere.
Pay debts with money, kill with life.
The iron-blooded law treats everyone equally.
But, how should he give her his life back...
...
After Qin Rushuang led the border guards to achieve this great victory, the border border ushered in a rare period of peace.
On the other side of the Yan Kingdom, due to the loss of a prince and the death and injury of nearly 60,000 soldiers, their vitality was severely damaged and they had no plans to invade Da Qi again for the time being.
As for the banner, Qin Rushuang is not ready to attack in depth for the time being.
After all, the Great Yan Kingdom is still some distance away from the Three-Nothing Zone. If she leads the border guards to continue to penetrate deeper, she will use the power of the border guards to become the enemy of the entire Great Yan Kingdom. She needs to make more careful plans.
As for Xie Xun, under the influence of Broken Bone Grass, the injury on his right hand has been completely healed.
Only the stab wound on the chest was too close to the heart, and the military doctor refused to allow Xie Xun to use Broken Bone Grass to treat it again, so it was delayed, but it would get better if it was repaired slowly.
In the past few days, Qin Rushuang, after meeting Da Wanlie for the first time, spent most of her time in the camp.
Before the next battle, she planned to spend more time with her children.
On this day, Qin Rushuang discovered that Qingzhi did not stay in the camp, but went to the army's kitchen.
Qin Rushuang took a look curiously and saw that this girl asked the chef for a lot of flour.
"What are you doing here, girl? Are you craving for Kyoto's pastries and want to secretly make them yourself?"
Qingzhi was kneading dough and was startled when he heard this. He turned around and saw that it was Qin Rushuang.
"Oh, miss! You're not with the baby? Why are you here?"
Qin Rushuang shrugged.
"I'm not needed for the baby. My brother and Mu Duo are vying to take him. That kid is also a clever guy. He knows that his brother and Mu Duo dote on him. Recently, he actually likes to stay with them more. I simply
Come out and get some air."
Qingzhi smiled, "That's good, Miss, you can relax a little bit. It's the Dragon Boat Festival in a few days. Didn't I find some flour and prepare to make some mooncakes for you, Miss!"
Qin Rushuang was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered that it was indeed the annual Mid-Autumn Festival.
Qingzhi continued to knead the dough.
While kneading the dough, he said to Qin Rushuang: "I heard from people in the military camp that this Mid-Autumn Festival will be celebrated grandly in the city. Firstly, it is to celebrate the festival, and secondly, it is to celebrate your return from victory, Miss."
"I heard that although the border is bitterly cold, great arrangements are made every Mid-Autumn Festival to make the people at the border happy and to soothe the soldiers' homesickness a little."
Qin Rushuang was thoughtful.
"That's it, then I understand."
"Miss, get ready. I heard that there will be a lantern festival and a temple fair in the city during the Mid-Autumn Festival the day after tomorrow. Let's go and see them together!"
Qin Rushuang nodded, thinking that Qingzhi, a little girl under twenty, would be bored after being locked up in this camp all day, so she agreed.
"Okay, I will take you to visit the city on that day."
