The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis

Shuangjiang said tremblingly: "The news of the plague that occurred after you and His Royal Highness King Cheng flooded Lan City has now been spread one after another."

Everyone knew about the plague at the time, including the emperor of Shengjing City. Many people praised the couple for resolving the plague quickly and saving many lives.

However, Runxue suddenly thought of something and her face changed drastically.

Frost: "At that time, the soldiers who were infected with the plague were locked up in the houses, and those who had contact with these soldiers were also locked up in the houses, in order to concentrate on treatment and prevent the plague from spreading further. But at night, the houses where these soldiers were locked up all caught fire, and all the people who were infected with the plague and those who had just come into contact with them were burned to death."

Shuangjiang kept her eyes down, not daring to look at Runxue's face. She continued, "There are rumors outside that the fire at night was set by you, Princess Cheng...you had someone set it."

Runxue fell into the chair, her face pale.

She understands that water can carry a boat but can also capsize it.

Because of this, the news of the arson at night could not be spread, otherwise many people would think that their relatives were burned to death unjustly on the battlefield of Lancheng.

If she hadn't had a fever, they would still have had a hope of surviving the plague, but if she had a fever, she would have extinguished the last bit of hope for survival for those people. Even though their hope of survival was slim, their relatives would blame her.

At this moment, Runxue felt the blood in her body turned cold.

Many of the soldiers under her command now were the ones who had followed her and Dongfang Shuo to the battlefield in Lancheng. If they confirmed that this matter was true, her position would be in danger.

Shuangjiang looked at her cautiously: "Princess Cheng, it's windy outside, please put on a windbreaker."

Shuangjiang took out his windbreaker, wrapped Runxue in it, and poured her a cup of hot tea. Runxue held the tea in her hands and slowly came back to her senses.

"Shuangjiang, there is a spy among us." Runxue said in a firm tone: "The spy gave our divine crossbow to Chu Heyi, and asked Chu Heyi to create the God-killing Crossbow to deal with us."

Marquis Shuangjiang was standing aside. She knew about this matter. The princess had been looking for the spy, but unfortunately she couldn't find him.

"That spy has been among us all along. She also found out the truth about the fire in the plague house from among us and spread it out in order to put me to death." Runxue said in a cold voice.

Frost shivered, not knowing whether it was because of the coldness of the snow or because the spy was so well hidden that he was not visible at all.

Runxue continued, "I know why the cement buildings in Shengjing City have not collapsed. The recipe I sent was replaced by that spy. Therefore, the cement recipe used by Xie Lin and his men is exactly the same as the recipes used in Yan and Lan cities."

She seemed to be speculating, yet also seemed to be making a final decision; she seemed to be talking to Frost, yet also seemed to be talking only to herself.

She suddenly raised her eyes to look at Shuangjiang: "You and Guyu have always been by my side. You are the people I trust the most. Only the two of you know the real formula of cement, and only the two of you know the truth about the arson that year!"

She was almost about to say, "The spy is either you or Guyu," but she didn't say it. She gave the chance to speak to Shuangjiang.

Shuangjiang's face changed drastically, and she knelt down again: "Princess, I am loyal to you and have never betrayed you! If the princess doubts me, I am willing to die to prove my innocence!"

Runxue held her hand and smiled gently: "I don't doubt you, nor do I doubt Guyu. Now I only have the two of you. The spy must be someone else, Shuangjiang, help me find him."

Shuangjiang was so moved that she cried. The princess trusted her so much, and she vowed to follow the princess until death.

Runxue thought for a moment and said, "Tong Xiling is not a spy. She is far away in Shengjing City and doesn't know that the cement recipe I gave her is not very good. There is no need to send anyone to Shengjing City to investigate the situation."

That is, no clues.

Searching for that spy is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"A passing wild goose leaves traces; a passing wind leaves sounds. As long as that person is with us, we will be able to find his trace. Frost, don't let me down. Bring the spy to me as soon as possible." Runxue's tone was calm, but his eyes were full of cold murderous intent.

At this moment, Shuangjiang felt as if her princess was going to kill everyone and didn't care even if blood flowed like a river.

Duan Feichi suffered heavy injuries in the battle against Chu Heyi and is now recuperating in the military camp.

The weather is getting cold, winter clothes are out of stock, and the food harvested in the fall is almost eaten up.

Due to the lack of food and supplies and repeated defeats, the soldiers were discouraged and the atmosphere in the barracks was very heavy.

How did it get to this point?

They have divine crossbowmen, and the people of Yan and Lan cities are united as one.

The war had been fought several times, and everyone still felt a little dreamy. Perhaps it was because the war in which Dongfang Shuo was defeated had caused them too much damage.

Originally they had 180,000 soldiers, but now there are only 130,000 left, a loss of 50,000 soldiers, a full 50,000.

The soldiers looked at the gray sky and couldn't help thinking that perhaps they would be the next to die.

The military camp became increasingly lifeless, and in this atmosphere, the news that Runxue had once set fire to the infected ward drifted into everyone's ears.

"Have you heard? The fire in the infected room in Lan City was not caused by accident. It was set on order by Princess Cheng."

The soldiers present at the time basically knew about this incident, and many suspected that it was the King and his wife who ordered the fire, but there was no evidence. In addition, they were the beneficiaries, and although the fire took the lives of their comrades, it protected them from being infected, so everyone chose to remain silent at that time.

But now it’s different. Among the soldiers here, many joined the barracks because their fathers and brothers died on the battlefield of Lancheng.

For example, Zhu Jia Erlang came here because his eldest brother died on the battlefield of Lancheng. Many people are like him.

They are not the beneficiaries but the victims. They once thought that their loved ones died in battle or in an accident, but now they know that they were burned to death by King Cheng and his wife, which has a completely different meaning.

This group of people are angry!

I am confused. Who are they fighting for?

Will their final fate be the same as those soldiers who are infected with the disease or have simply come into contact with infected people? Will they be burned to death without any hope of survival?

"Everyone, follow me, we are going to seek refuge with the Crown Princess!" A voice suddenly sounded in everyone's ears.

There was a sharp sound like a sword being unsheathed, and everyone looked over.

"Yan and Lan cities have been emptied by Princess Cheng. We will no longer have sufficient food and war clothes. Now we are sacrificing our lives and shedding our blood, but it is just a weapon for Princess Cheng to fight for power!"

The one who shouted this was the military commander who had been fighting alongside them, Shen Rong. Behind Shen Rong followed a young girl, who was...
