The General Is As Urgent As Law

Guo Linchong's body was really strong, and Jiang also helped Zhong Yi take care of him, and he woke up that night.

"It's lucky, although the wound is quite big and the insertion is a bit deep, but it didn't hurt the internal organs, and the person will be fine when he wakes up." Zhong Yibian said while taking his pulse.

Guo Linchong's lips turned white and he was so dry that Jiang Ye immediately went to the side to pour a small cup of hot water and said, "Deputy General Guo, would you like some water?"

Guo Lin was really weak, his lips parted and he didn't make a sound.But he guessed that he was also very thirsty. Seeing Jiang Ye's actions, he wanted to support himself with his hands so that he could sit up and drink water.Seeing this, Zhong Yi immediately went up to help him up, helped him up and half lying on the pillow, leaned on the pillow, and cursed: "How long will it take to stop the bleeding, and you want to open the wound?"

Guo Linchong reached out his hand to Jiang Ye, and Jiang Ye handed over the water glass.He took the glass, slowly drank the whole glass of water, and his dry throat was relieved a little, before he opened his mouth and said to Zhong Yi: "I'm sorry to trouble you..."

"Just know that you're causing me trouble." Zhong Yi said, looking at Jiang Ye, "I'll go get the medicine, and you take care of him."

"Okay." Jiang Ye nodded obediently, then took the cup from Guo Linchong's hand and asked, "Do you want to drink more?"

"No need." Guo Linchong shook his head.Just drinking a glass of water and saying a few words is very difficult for the current Guo Linchong. He slowed down a little bit, but he still couldn't bear his temper and asked Jiang: "Did anyone get caught?"

"No, it was gone when we arrived..." Jiang also answered truthfully.

Hearing this answer, Guo Linchong clearly showed regret.He lowered his eyes and breathed slightly heavily. He didn't speak for a long time, but the sense of self-blame was quite obvious in his whole body.

After a long time, Guo Linchong asked again: "The matter about the eldest prince..."

"It's more important for Vice General Guo to recover from his injuries, and the general will definitely take care of them," Jiang also replied.

"Ugh."

After saying this, Zhong Yi came in with the soup, and Guo Linchong was still inconvenient to move. Although he kept refusing, he was still persuaded by Zhong Yi to let Luo Yansheng feed him.

Jiang also watched Guo Linchong take the medicine, and the situation seemed to have stabilized, so he got up and prepared to leave: "I'll report the situation to the general."

"Wait," Guo Linchong said, "how's the front line going?"

"Don't worry, the general will go into battle in person."

Jiang Ye turned around and left after saying this, only to hear Guo Linchong sigh in relief.All kinds of doubts in his heart became more complicated and confusing under the catalysis of this sigh.Seeing that he had reached the entrance of the tent, Jiang didn't hold back, and suddenly asked, "Is Vice-General Guo really worried?"

"Ok?"

"It's nothing."

The battle was completely taken over by Xue Changfeng. He never returned to the camp with his people, and stayed on the front line all the time.Compared with Xue Ziqin, Xue Changfeng's attitude towards the war is much more serious. For him, there is only complete victory, otherwise it is considered a failure.On the way, Xue Changfeng also sent someone to bring a message to Xue Ziqin. If there is no solution to the murder of the eldest prince before he returns, Xue Ziqin will be at his own risk.

But it may be because of Xue Changfeng's understanding of Xue Ziqin. It is absolutely impossible for Xue Ziqin to lead troops to fight, but let him investigate the case and understand the turmoil in the court.So within two days, Xue Changfeng sent Zhou Xiao back, saying that he and Dan Mo were enough.

Xue Ziqin also interrogated those people who were detained one by one, but nothing was found.Needless to say, the soldiers of their own family can clear their suspicions by checking their backgrounds one by one.The important point is the attendants brought by the eldest prince. After all, the person who seriously injured Guo Linchong and escaped was among the attendants.

Although there were not as many tortures in the barracks as in the palace, they often did interrogation of prisoners of war to obtain information, so they were full of tricks.After going through a lot of torture, the things those attendants could spit out were of no value.

They knew the escaped person, he was indeed the attendant of the First Prince all the time, and he was appointed by the First Prince to take him on this trip. It is no exaggeration to say that he is a confidant.Thinking about it this way, apart from the fact that this person has been bribed, there is no other possibility for a while.

The remaining five attendants were all tied up, and they will be taken back to the capital together only when there is a clear solution to this matter.

Cen Lizhen was still living alone in Guo Linchong's camp, anyway, Guo Linchong was staying at Zhong Yi's place to recuperate from his injuries, in order to ensure the safety of Cen Lizhen, Xue Ziqin arranged twenty elite soldiers under his command to protect Cen Lizhen in shifts day and night.

The matter remained in a stalemate for three days without any progress, and finally Jiang Ye found a turning point.

Guo Linchong recovered unexpectedly quickly. He was able to walk freely on the ground the second day after his injury. Although he could not wield a sword yet, he did not need the care of others in his daily activities.Under Xue Ziqin's instruction, Jiang also wandered around Guo Linchong's side when he had nothing to do, in the name of taking care of him.

And on the night of the third day, according to Xue Ziqin's instructions, Jiang went to Zhong Yi's tent before midnight to check if there was any change in Guo Linchong. Take the exit in the direction of Qianyu.

Seeing the situation, Jiang also hurried all the way to Xue Ziqin to report.

He did this out of consideration—although Guo Linchong wanted to go out, and it would be easy to lose track if he didn't follow him, but obviously with Guo Linchong's current physical condition, his travel speed might not be as fast as ordinary people.If Jiang Ye went alone, Guo Linchong really had something wrong, and it would be too easy to kill Jiang Ye to silence him. It would be better to report to Xue Ziqin before making a decision.

Jiang Ye arrived at the general's tent panting heavily. Xue Ziqin was still asleep, and he and Zhou Xiao seemed to be discussing something. Jiang Ye happened to interrupt both of them when he came in.

"General, there is a situation."

"Say."

"Vice General Guo has gone out, and seems to be leaving the barracks in the direction of Qianyu." Jiang Yehui reported.

"Then why don't you follow?" Xue Ziqin asked with raised eyebrows.

Jiang also paused, knowing that too much time should not be wasted now, so he quickly said, "I don't know if he is going out to meet other people. If I was discovered alone, it would be too easy to kill me."

"So afraid of death?" Xue Ziqin was obviously displeased with Jiang Ye's explanation.

Zhou Xiao got up quickly and said, "It makes sense, I'll go with you."

"it is good."

After the two talked, they looked at Xue Ziqin again, waiting for Xue Ziqin to speak.

The situation was urgent, and even though Xue Ziqin was upset with Jiang, it was not the time to get angry, so he could only wave his hand to signal the two of them to go quickly.

Jiang also feels pretty good about Zhou Xiao.Zhou Xiao doesn't look like an iron-blooded general at all, except for the armor on his body, he is more like a scholar, with a gentle smile...and scary when he is angry.The two quickly went to the barracks to exit one after the other, and the patrolling soldiers immediately cheered up when they saw Zhou Xiao: "Vice General Zhou!"

Zhou Xiao waved his hands, with a smile on his face, and asked, "Did Vice General Guo go out just now?"

"Yes!" The patrol captain replied, "Deputy General Guo said he was going to do something under the orders of the General."

"It's okay, you guys continue to inspect." Zhou Xiao said, "If Vice General Guo comes back, don't ask me about it."

"Yes!"

After saying this, Jiang Ye and Zhou Xiao looked at each other. They both wanted to go together, needless to say.

If Guo Linchong really had a problem, then as a lieutenant general, he could do whatever he wanted in the northern army.Even if Xue Ziqin ordered no one to leave the barracks without authorization, as long as they did not specifically state "including the lieutenants", several lieutenants could still go out at any time on the grounds of Xue Ziqin's dispatch.

The gates of the city are not open at night, even if Xue Ziqin leads people to go there, it will take a lot of effort to get people to open the gates, and there will be a lot of noise in that case.Therefore, Guo Linchong can only enter Qianyu from the place to the west of Qianyu that has not yet fully repaired the fortifications.

The two of them didn't discuss it, and naturally they quickly headed towards the west of Qianyu.Jiang Ye still admired Xue Ziqin's method of training soldiers. For example, now, the surroundings are dark, and after long-term training, Jiang Ye can still quickly catch any movement around him.The speed of the two was astonishing, without saying a word, after an incense stick of time, they saw Guo Linchong's figure as they expected.

Zhou Xiao raised her hand to signal Jiang Ye to slow down.

Soldiers like Guo Linchong, who have been in the army for a long time and often fight, are very vigilant, so Zhou Xiao and Jiang can only keep a limit distance, just enough to see a little shadow to follow. Guo Linchong discovered it because of the sound of footsteps or the friction of clothing materials.

Guo Linchong's injury had not yet healed, and his speed was not fast. About half an hour later, the three of them entered Qianyu city one after another.

Once you enter the city, the hall is a little brighter. There are officers and soldiers patrolling the streets carrying lanterns, and there are also kilns that are not closed at night, with lights on.

After Guo Linchong entered the city, he went straight to the famous kilns in the city.

Seeing Guo Linchong enter the kiln, Jiang couldn't help exclaiming: "No way, he still wants to visit the kiln?"

Zhou Xiao shook his head: "Impossible."

"Everyone went in."

"There are people from all walks of life in the kiln, and it would be the best place to use it as a joint." Zhou Xiao's expression was solemn, and Guo Linchong went out alone in the middle of the night, and when he went to the kiln, he almost confirmed his identity as a spy.

Jiang could only ask, "Then what should we do now?"

Zhou Xiao observed the surroundings of the kiln for a while.Although it is late at night, there are kiln sisters twisting their waists at the entrance of the kiln hall to welcome and send off the guests.

"You took off your armor." Zhou Xiao said.

"What?" Jiang didn't understand.

Zhou Xiao paused for a moment, then changed his words and asked, "Do you know how to do light work?"

"will not."

"That way, you take off your armor, then go to the kiln hall, and tell sister kiln that you are with the military master just now, and let her take you there."

Jiang Ye still didn't understand: "Wouldn't he know it like this?"

"No, you just need to confirm whether he is in the hall or the wing room on the second floor." Zhou Xiao pointed to the roof of the kiln building, "The first floor of the kiln building is generally the lobby, and the second floor is the wing room. You just need to confirm this, and then Just find a chance to come out before he sees you."

"understood."

"Then act, I'll wait for you here." Zhou Xiao said.

Jiang was also unambiguous, took off his armor without saying a word, threw it on the ground, and walked towards the kiln.
