"Before, they would wait for me in the restaurant where I often went to eat. After seeing me, they would blindfold me and take me to one of their villas, where I would see a
The man dressed as a Huns gave me all the poison!" Qiao Zhu wiped her tears and said.
"They must have known that my aunt is seriously ill by now, but they don't know what the situation is. You haven't contacted them yet. Tomorrow you go to the restaurant where you eat as usual. If they are not wrong, they will definitely come to you tomorrow.
!" Meng Duiwan looked at Qiao Zhu and said softly, "I have an idea, but I don't know if you dare!"
Meng told Wan his thoughts to the three people present. Although this idea was very radical, it was also the best way at the moment.
After all, Qiao Zhu had fought with Meng Lingjing for so many years. Although she was a bit clumsy, what she lacked most was courage, so after hearing Meng Duiwan's idea, she almost agreed without hesitation.
That night, Qiao Zhu couldn't sleep almost all night, but due to Meng Duiwan's scolding, she still lay on the soft couch and rested for an hour or two.
She stayed up until noon the next day, and the doors of the entire military camp were wide open. Normally at this time, the military camp would let them go out to eat something good. If they were locals, they would also be allowed to go home and see their children. Qiao Zhu also
Taking advantage of this time, she slipped out of the military camp and immediately went to the restaurant where they gave her the poison.
Qiao Zhu ordered a table full of dishes, but it was hard to be blind while sitting there.
Meng Duiwan and Forsythia hid in the flower building opposite, looking coldly at Qiao Zhu in the restaurant.
"The girl is not worried that she is a liar, and then takes this opportunity to run away?" Forsythia frowned slightly, she always felt that Qiao Zhu was a little untrustworthy.
"Qiao Zhu is indeed not trustworthy, but the city gate has been closed. She can either cooperate with us and we will help her rescue her parents, or die with those bandits." Meng Duiwan said coldly.
Just when Meng Duiwan finished speaking, he saw someone in the restaurant in the distance slowly approaching Qiao Zhu. They seemed to say a few words, and then Qiao Zhu followed them and left.
Meng Duiwan and Forsythia quickly followed.
"I see that those people just now do not look like Lingnan people." Forsythia whispered, "These people are very tall, and they look like they have been riding horses and archery for many years, and they look like they are all
Very strong, I feel a bit like a Huns!" Forsythia said softly as she walked.
Meng Duiwan frowned slightly: "If they are Huns, then there is nothing strange about them."
"ah?"
"Before I came to the capital, my eldest brother told me repeatedly that I must be careful when traveling to Lingnan. The seventh prince fled, intending to win over the Xiongnu, hoping to use the Xiongnu's forces to make a comeback. My father led people to guard Mobei.
It is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it will be difficult for the Huns to capture it, unless trouble occurs elsewhere and the court has no time to take care of Mobei!" Meng Duiwan said coldly, "It seems that they want to start from Lingnan.
Got it!"
Forsythia actually didn't know that there was such a thing, but now that she heard it, she felt chills running down her spine. It was so unconscionable for a noble prince to collude with the enemy to persecute our generals.
On the other side, Qiao Zhu had been taken to a separate courtyard. The courtyard was not big, but from the ringing of bells one after another, Qiao Zhu knew that she had been taken to the Huns' courtyard again.
The black cloth covering his eyes was removed. Qiao Zhu lied for a moment, but the next moment he saw the Huns sitting there. Meng Lingjing's serious illness made him suffer from conscience condemnation, so he saw this man.
When he arrived, he immediately wanted to rush forward, but was held down tightly by the people around him.
"You clearly told me that those medicines would only make her feel a little unwell, but the medicines you gave me were clearly poisons. You were taking advantage of me!" Qiao Zhu asked loudly.
He gently rubbed the ring on his thumb, and then sneered: "Yes, I am just using you, what can you do? Your parents are in my hands, even if I tell you that is
Poison, are you going to risk your parents’ life and death for a so-called general?”
"The general has been so kind to me. I would rather die than harm her. Why are you using me like this?" Qiao Zhu's eyes turned red. "Give me the antidote. I will
I can give you mine, as long as you give me the antidote, I can do whatever you want!"
"Anything can be done?" The man sneered, "You are a little soldier, what can you give me, and what can you do for me? If you kill one of your generals, you will be leaderless. A tribe without a leader will eventually fall apart.
!”
"You are wrong. I am not a tribe. Our Women's Army is subordinate to the imperial court. Even if there is no general, there will be others. Our girl is also here. She is the person in charge of the future. Even if the general is really gone, you can't shake it.
My dynasty of the Zhou Dynasty!" Qiao Zhu roared angrily, "You'd better give me the antidote and escape from here as quickly as possible, otherwise, you will have no place to stay!"
"You have such a loud tone! What can a woman do if she is so stupid?" The man laughed, and then took out a bottle from his arms, "If you want an antidote, I can give it to you.
You, but you have to think clearly, I can only get the antidote here by one person. It’s just a coincidence. I suddenly had a whim a few days ago and poisoned your parents. I just don’t know what the antidote is for you.
Who will eat it?"
Qiao Zhu was stunned. She looked at the man in front of her and screamed at the top of her lungs: "You beast, my parents obviously didn't do anything. Why do you treat them like this? I obviously followed your instructions. You
Why do you still do this?”
"Because it's boring." The man walked up to Qiao Zhu with the bottles, pinched her face with one hand and played with the bottles with the other. "Don't you people from the Central Plains always say that loyalty and filial piety cannot be both good and bad? I want to see what you will choose.
, choose loyalty or filial piety!"
Qiao Zhu's face turned pale in an instant: "You, you..."
"But you have to think clearly, as you said yourself, even if your general is gone and there is a little girl to support him, Liang Zijun may lose a few battles, but he will not disappear completely, but your
Parents are different. If your parents die, they will die and you will never see them again in this life." The man laughed, "Whether you choose loyalty or filial piety, it depends on what you think."
