Ling Yutong still doesn't know what happened in the capital.
Afraid of being caught off guard by the rain and preventing her handkerchiefs from getting wet, she hurriedly collected them one by one and packed them in special bags.
After everything was done, she stopped to rest. Once her hands were free, her thoughts were empty. Suddenly, an impression flashed in her mind, which was the shrill female voice that day.
On that day, she was about to open the curtain and see the woman, but she didn't expect Qi Yanyan to come.
He stopped her.
Recalling what happened that day, she frowned slightly and felt something was not quite right.
"Why don't you let me in?"
Qi Yan pursed his lips slightly, and there was nothing wrong with his expression at that time. He just said: "It's best not to see her, for the time being."
temporary……
Her eyes flickered and she tasted the word.
Does it mean that there is something that has not been resolved at the moment but will be resolved soon?
She moved her steps and tried to take two steps in the direction of Qi Yan. She had been paying attention to his expression and saw that his expression relaxed slightly because of her movements.
She suddenly didn't want to see that woman anymore.
However, only then and now.
She shook her head, helpless at her current state.
She still wanted to see that woman, and she always felt that... maybe after meeting her, she could give an explanation for her thoughts that arose in that moment.
Pursing her lips, she decided to go directly to Qi Yan this time.
If she is not allowed to meet him by herself for the time being, then drag him along and go to the head office?
Qi Yan was still talking to Ying Huaixu.
However, this time the location became a military tent.
The soldiers have Ling Yutong to make decisions, the imperial doctor Fang to supervise the work, and a whole army of other soldiers at their disposal. The physical condition of the soldiers who suffered from vomiting and diarrhea has been temporarily controlled and is gradually becoming stable.
Although the internal worries have not been completely eliminated, it is at least less hectic.
What needs to be solved now is foreign aggression.
An Nanhou patted the table and said seriously: "I am going to select people to form a commando team. A lot of things have happened to the soldiers during this period, and their morale is low. We cannot continue like this."
"We can't remain passive and wait for the Turks to take action."
"I support the Marquis's decision, and I can join." Qi Yan raised his eyes, and although his words were calm, there was an edge to them.
Not long after arriving in Northern Xinjiang, a lot of things happened that delayed the business. Now that he could finally put the business on the agenda, he naturally couldn't sit down anymore.
After he spoke, people followed him one after another.
An Nanhou raised a smile on his lips.
"good!"
"Then..."
"etc."
Just before the final decision was made, the man sitting aside, who had been silent and insignificant, spoke up.
An Nanhou's brows furrowed imperceptibly.
Ying Huaixu said slowly: "I didn't interrupt on purpose, but I rashly formed a team, and it was a commando team. If I understood the literal meaning correctly, the people in this team wanted to penetrate into the depths of the Turks, right?
?”
"But, aren't the people coming from the Turks this time small nobles from various families? Regardless of whether they are suitable for this plan, as far as a single location is concerned, will they gather in one place?"
An Nanhou said: "This is the issue we will discuss next."
Ying Huaixu raised his eyebrows and pursed his lips slightly under the mask.
"Oh, okay, then I have nothing to say."
The atmosphere in the camp subtly stagnated, the other soldiers didn't speak, and Qi Yan didn't say a word either.
An Nanhou glanced at Ying Huaixu again and continued to talk about the plan he had in mind.
During this period, Qi Yan took the lead and held positive opinions time and time again. Others followed suit and followed Huai's lead, saying "Wait a minute" in a familiar and slow voice. When everyone looked at him, he dragged out his tone and proposed himself.
of different opinions.
Or, tell me what the loopholes are.
However, what he said every time was not particularly important, but he was wasting his time, as if... he was undermining his personality.
The veins on An Nanhou's forehead twitched, but he said nothing.
Qi Yan's eyes also lowered, and the strange feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger.
Facing a person like Ying Huai Xu, he really couldn't feel the emotion of respect from the bottom of his heart. This emotion was not very well-founded, it was just his subjective assumption, especially after he knew about the other person's past that he admired.
.
So what has this person experienced over the years, so that he can no longer be the same as before?
Or maybe, what he admired as a child was just an illusion.
It can be said that the meeting held in the camp today did not go well.
Ying Huaixu interrupted frequently, hindering his official duties, so Annan Hou had to stop frequently and tell him every detail.
You have to break it apart, crush it, and talk about it, otherwise, the other person will look at the person with a mask on his face and look at him in pure confusion. Although he doesn't say a word, he can't get an answer, and this topic will not be able to continue.
.
At the end of the meeting, Annan Hou raised his eyebrows.
Qi Yan met his gaze and said nothing, just opened the curtain and went out.
He trusts his instincts, so...
"Miss Ling?"
Ying Huai Xu's slightly smiling call came from the front.
Qi Yan's eyes darkened and he walked over quickly.
Ling Yutong nodded politely to Huai Xu. When his eyes glanced at Qi Yan, he looked much gentler to the naked eye.
"I'm coming to find you, take me somewhere."
"oh?"
Before Qi Yan could reply, Ying Huaixu spoke first, the smile on his lips curved quietly.
"Where are you going? I wonder if it's some secret place. Maybe I can follow you?"
Ling Yutong's eyes flashed.
Ying Huaixu was here, which made it a little difficult for her to speak.
After all, if it involves Xuewei, it should be considered a secret.
Even if Ying Huaixu opened his mouth and mentioned that he was a third-grade official, the prisoners under interrogation were not the ones he could see if he wanted to.
This is against the rules.
Her hesitant look fell into Qi Yan's eyes.
The next moment, Qi Yan seemed to know what she was thinking. He pondered for a moment and then said, "Well...if you want to see Xuewei, I can take you there."
"Master Ying, it's okay to make an exception."
"After all, Master Ying is so concerned about the actual situation of the camp and has considered every detail for us. This kind of care is extremely rare."
Ling Yutong raised his eyebrows.
How could she not hear that Qi Yan was being overtly complimentary and implicitly sarcastic?
As an outsider, she knows that when it comes to specific situations, although there are clear action indicators, in actual actions, there are too many uncontrollables and too many accidents will happen. And the leader of all this is an extremely important person.
Ability is adaptability.
How can you arrange everything in detail when you first come up with an idea?
However, she was still surprised that Qi Yan could agree to her visit so happily this time.
Qi Yan has quietly focused his attention on Ying Huaixu since he said the words.
However, there was nothing unusual about the other party's expression.
The three of them arrived at the door of the camp where Xuewei was detained.
Liu Yu saw Ling Yutong twice in just two days. He was excited and nervous at the same time. He quickly lowered his head to salute the three of them, and then heard Qi Yan say: "We want to go in and take a look, you stay guard outside the tent."
"this……"
Liu Yu was stunned. He obviously didn't say that yesterday!
Didn't he come here specifically to tell Miss Ling not to see Xuewei?
What now...
However, as soon as he caught Qi Yan's gaze, he stopped talking and honestly moved out of the way.
"please."
Qi Yan made a move towards Ying Huaixu.
Ying Huaixu's eyes flashed with surprise, and he tilted his head back.
"Should I go in first? That's not good."
"There's nothing wrong with it. Inside is the assassin we captured recently. She has been wrapped in strong enough chains and won't hurt you. Don't worry."
There was no flaw in Qi Yan's expression.
Even when he glanced at Ying Huaixu's expression, the smile on his lips seemed to be replicated, gentle and gentle.
"Isn't it what Master Ying wants to see?"
"yes."
Ying Huaixu had nothing to say now, so he had to go forward and open the curtain.
Ling Yutong's eyes flashed, and she thought to herself, why did she feel that the confrontation between these two people was a bit like... sparks under the water of the lake.
The sharp edge appeared for a moment, and then disappeared without a trace.
Inside the tent, the smell of blood was very strong.
I didn't notice it before I came in, but after I came in, the smell seemed to penetrate into my nose so hard that I couldn't help but frown.
But among the three people present, no one had any different expressions.
Xuewei seemed to feel someone coming and raised her eyes slightly.
Her pupils shrank, and the expression in them turned fierce in an instant.
"What do you mean!"
"Qi Yan, do you regard me as something that can be displayed at will? It's not enough for you to humiliate me alone, you have to bring your colleagues with you!"
"There's even a woman! Here's another joke, right? But I held on. As long as you didn't poison me, I would never say a word against him!"
"I don't want to hear anything else about his whereabouts. I just want to fight you to the end. If you can't kill me, I will wait for my revenge in the future!"
Qi Yan pursed his lips and listened to her emotional and angry roar.
Then, he raised his brows, the light in his eyes flickered, and replied to her without saying anything immediately.
Ling Yutong's ears hurt from the noise.
When we were separated by the tent before, I had already felt that this woman's voice was shrill.
Now facing him head-on... she felt like her head was being shaken to the core. She looked up and found that the other person's expression wasn't very good either. The wound must have been torn due to the roar.
The subconscious feeling of discomfort made her look back at just now, and she felt that this Xuewei...
The emotional point that just broke out is a bit strange.
I haven't heard Liu Yu talk about this person before. It is said that she will only yell when she is in special pain. And just now, could it be Qi Yan who stimulated her?
Or...
Her eyes glanced at Ying Huai Xu inadvertently, suppressing her thoughts.
The three of them were all looking at Xuewei.
Ying Huaixu looked back: "What did she do? How could I..."
He frowned slightly.
"I always feel that her appearance is somewhat familiar."
"It's just an outline, but I can't remember exactly who it looks like."
Qi Yan raised his eyes: "Familiar?"
"Um."
With a cold voice wrapped in a chill that pierced his bones, Qi Yan said slowly: "She is the culprit of what happened to the soldiers this time. It was also because she choked the doctor in the tent that Yutong and Fang
The imperial doctor Baili came to my aid and settled in the tent for the time being."
"Ah, this..."
Ying Huaixu's pupils dilated, and then he frowned fiercely.
"A cruel person is not a kind person."
Qi Yan hummed meaninglessly and looked back at Ling Yutong.
"Didn't you want to see her before? There is something you want to ask."
"She happens to be awake at the moment. Feel free to ask about safety issues. I'm here."
Ling Yutong nodded.
She looked directly at Xuewei.
"I was passing by that day and heard you calling someone's name, Yu Nanxun. What's your relationship with him? Did you know he was dead?"
There was no emotion in her question.
But it easily angered Xuewei.
"Who told you that he is dead! He will always live in my heart and he will not die!!"
Ling Yutong frowned.
"No, please be conscious, he is already dead."
"Absolutely not."
"I'm sober."
Xuewei raised her head and stared at her fiercely.
Only then did Ling Yutong realize that Xuewei's facial features were extremely beautiful, and her appearance and temperament were somewhat similar to hers. She was neither delicate nor naive.
It is a kind of fierce beauty, especially at this moment, it seems as if the eyes are burning with fire, and the beauty is particularly thrilling.
"I want to ask you what your relationship is with him!"
Seeing that she didn't speak, Xuewei was silent for a while and then asked angrily.
Ling Yutong tilted his head.
She did not answer immediately, but turned to look at Qi Yan, as if confused and distressed, and said, "She asked me instead, but what relationship can I have with Yu Nanxun?"
Qi Yan couldn't help but cough slightly, suppressing the inappropriate smile that was creeping up on his lips at this moment.
"You have nothing to do with each other."
"I answered it for you."
Xuewei gritted her teeth.
Her eyes were still staring fiercely, with no intention of moving away.
And stubbornly said: "Ling Yutong, this is your name. I want to hear your answer to me."
"Say it!"
Ling Yutong shrugged: "Qi Yan's answer is my answer. I have nothing to do with the Yu Nanxun you say."
"You lied."
Xuewei's eyes were red, and even though her body was covered in blood, it didn't affect her ability to vent her emotions at the moment.
Ling Yutong felt very confused about her attitude.
She could also tell that the Xuewei in front of her had either had a close relationship with Yu Nanxun, or she had the ultimate emotional attachment to Yu Nanxun.
She was really startled when she heard this name outside the camp that day.
That's why she wanted to see Xuewei so much, but after actually meeting her, she felt it didn't matter.
The other party's emotions were too full and very weird.
The stalemate in the atmosphere was broken by Ying Huai's order.
"etc."
It’s this familiar phrase again, etc.
Qi Yan closed his eyes and happened to miss the brief exchange of eyes between Ying Huaixu and Xuewei. Although Ling Yutong noticed Xuewei's rapid emotions, he failed to notice this obvious change because he did not observe Yu Nanxun's expression.
That's wrong.
"Yu Nanxun? Although I live in seclusion, I seem to have heard of this name."
Qi Yan lazily raised his eyes and glanced at him.
"It's the one who died in the fire before the new official took office."
"My lord, you have been hiding from the world for so long, but you didn't expect to know about it?"
The slightly rising final sound indicates his doubts.
Ying Huaixu shook his head: "I don't know most things, but this matter is a big deal, so I also listened."
"Really, it's a pity."
Ling Yutong didn't want to reply to Ying Huaixu's regretful remarks. The things Yu Nanxun had done were to make him die ten times to gain advantage. Her eyes moved to Xuewei, and then she noticed that Xuewei sniffed.
Nothing was said at the moment.
It was surprisingly quiet.
There are more strange feelings in my heart.
Qi Yan said: "Is there anything else I want to ask?"
Ling Yutong shook her head, she had no doubts anymore.
"Then let's go."
As soon as the words fell, the two of them turned around at the same time, preparing to leave. Only Ying Huai Xu did not move.
His eyes fell on Xuewei at some point, his brows furrowed slightly, and there were some emotions flashing in his eyes that they couldn't quite understand.
Qi Yan spoke up.
"Sir, please make an exception. It won't last long."
The implication is that it's time to go.
But Ying Huaixu still didn't move.
He even moved his steps unconsciously, and then kept staring in Xuewei's direction, while his lips were mumbling something that they couldn't hear clearly.
Ling Yutong felt weird.
What on earth is this Master Ying doing?
Suddenly, she thought of what Ying Huaixu said when he first came in.
He said: "Xuewei looks very familiar to him."
No way?
It was at this moment that Ying Huaixu said: "Oh, yes! I thought about it, I thought about someone her face resembles!"
