Chapter 41
Although her mother calmed down later, Yunmian still received the gift package of house arrest and was detained in the military camp and was not allowed to go anywhere.
Yun Mian accepted the punishment because Wei Wu and Chu Tian were both injured. With the medical conditions of that era, their wounds would take longer to heal. Even though they were both martial artists and always thought that their injuries were not serious as long as they were not dead at the time, Yun Mian still moved a small stool and guarded in the room next to them for many days.
This warmed the hearts of the two men, and after the military doctor said that the injuries would heal slowly and there would be no more serious problems, they went together to persuade the sensible little princess not to waste her time on them.
Yun Mian saw them and waved at them mysteriously.
For some reason, whenever they saw this... this cunning little princess, their eyelids would twitch non-stop, and they always felt that something was desperately rushing towards an irreversible direction.
Although they had a bad feeling in their hearts, they still went over there.
Yunmian sat on a small stool made by a soldier in the barracks that she had asked him to make. She smiled at the two of them with her face tilted upwards and waved her paws obediently: "Squat down a little. I'll tell you a secret~"
secret?
Chu Tian's originally resistant expression paused, and he squatted silently in front of her.
Wei Wu coughed dryly and squatted down with an uncomfortable look on his face.
Yun Mian didn't notice their awkwardness. She moved her stool closer to them and whispered, "Do you remember the light cavalry we encountered before?"
The two of them nodded in unison, and then became more serious and focused, their eyes brightening.
Yunmian started to play tricks again, deliberately speaking slowly: "Later, my mother brought people over and captured four living prisoners and brought them back for interrogation, but we were all recovering from our injuries at the time, and no one told us the results of the interrogation..."
"Does the princess know now?"
"Does the princess know? What was the result of the interrogation? Why did they appear there?"
They asked eagerly.
Yun Mian raised the corners of his eyebrows proudly, but he was not a bad person at all, and he generously satisfied their curiosity.
"Of course I have my own way of knowing. I tell you, we were not unlucky that day at all, but extremely lucky! Otherwise, we wouldn't have run into that team of light cavalry at this time. Fortunately, we did, and mother will definitely give you some credit later. At least your salaries will be raised!"
She said: "That team of light cavalry was not sent by Tuguo specifically, but was chasing someone into our garrison area. They were chasing the fourth prince of Tuguo, who is also the son of the most beloved concubine of the current Tuguo emperor."
Yun Mian raised her chin and crossed her chest with pride: "There were more than one team surrounding them, but we encountered them in advance. After interrogation, we found out that the Emperor of Tu was seriously ill, and the forces behind his children were fighting for power fiercely. The fourth prince's mother was the most favored, so they targeted him the most severely. He was tricked when he went out and fled all the way to the border. He has nowhere else to go."
"...What a coincidence?!" Both of them were shocked.
Yun Mian held her face and nodded continuously: "Yes, yes, what a coincidence, what's even more coincidental is that mother also had someone steal the fourth prince back!"
The two were stunned: "Steal?!"
"Yes, didn't we say before that Tu State had discovered another mineral vein? After deduction, mother and military advisor uncle all felt that the desperate Fourth Prince was probably hiding among the people who were mining ore. He was well-fed and tender, so we found him easily, and then knocked him out and stole him back!" Yun Mian couldn't help muttering when talking about this: "I wanted to hide secretly among the people who were mining that day, but then I was afraid that there were no children among them and I would be exposed if I went there. Who knew that the upper echelons of Tu State were so cruel that they would even conscript children for labor service!"
It’s a pity that the opportunity was missed, otherwise Yunmian would have found a way to sneak in that day.
Chu Tian, Wei Wu: "..."
So you were eager to try it that day, and you had already thought about how to do it, right?
It seems that they really need to be grateful to that cavalry team, otherwise their little princess might not be recuperating in the barracks, but would be mining for the enemy country!
Wei Wu and Chu Tian did not ask where the fourth prince was now. They knew that according to the generals and military advisors' methods, the child born by the imperial concubine, who was most favored by the Emperor of Tu, would definitely play an extremely important strategic role in the future.
So they persuaded Yunmian in turn that this matter must not be told to anyone else, as only heaven and earth knew about it and they should follow the general's arrangements otherwise.
Yun Mian smiled and nodded: "I know, I didn't tell anyone. I told you because I was afraid that you would get hurt after being locked up for so long. You were scolded with me that day, so you must feel a little uncomfortable. So I told you so that you can also be happy~"
The two were implicated by her and risked their lives to protect her. Yunmian was a grateful child, otherwise she would have just ridden away on her horse and would not have cared about their lives.
Hearing this, the two felt warm in their hearts, but at the same time they remembered why they came.
After listening to their persuasion, the little girl looked at them with a bitter face: "Don't persuade me anymore..."
She puffed her cheeks and sighed unhappily, "I also want to go out and play, eat the big meat buns in Qiliangcheng, and share candied haws with those kids. But the day before yesterday, when I went to the kitchen to watch them cook, I was kind enough to help light the fire, but I accidentally broke two pots..."
In fact, if Yunmian were to say, it’s not her fault at all!
Who would have known that the firewood chopped by the soldiers was so thick that it couldn't even turn after it burned. Yun Mian still endured the pain in her fingers and managed to turn it with great difficulty, but who would have known that... with a bang, the pot broke.
Later, she and the soldiers in the kitchen all thought it was an accident, so Yun Mian sat obediently in front of another stove, asking the soldiers about the latest gossip in the barracks while trying to pick up new firewood and poke it in.
There was no later.
She was covered in dust and dirt and was dragged back by her mother by the ear and scolded.
The soldiers in the kitchen had gloomy faces and put up a sign in front of the kitchen saying "Yunmian is not allowed to enter".
They also worship the Kitchen God, saying that they want to remove the remaining smell of Yunmian, otherwise the food will not taste good!
Yun Mian had been angry with the soldiers in the kitchen for two days. Every time she saw them, she would walk away with a puffy face, and then when she heard laughter behind her, she would get even angrier!
Now the whole army only had these two people who were locked up to recuperate. Yun Mian was so angry that he smashed two large iron pots.
But they know now.
Yun Mian looked at them with a stern face, trying to hold back their laughter. Then, she stared at Wei Wu's twitching mouth and snorted, "Don't laugh! If you laugh, I will break up with you! I told you such a big secret, and if you laugh out loud, you are heartless!!!"
"Pfft!" Wei Wu couldn't hold it in any longer. He covered his face and shoulders and laughed timidly.
Originally he could still bear it, but the little princess... the little princess's red face, frustrated and threatening expression was really funny, hahahahahaha...
When he smiled, Chu Tian beside him also broke his composure, turned his back to him and smiled with his cheekbones raised.
Yunmian: “…”
Very good, she is no longer a grateful child!
From today on, the little princess will have to be a child without conscience, holding grudges and being petty!
The angry child picked up his little stool and walked out without even looking back at the two people.
She thought they would realize their mistakes, but as soon as she stepped out of the door, a deafening laugh broke out from behind her.
Yunmian: ...I haven't left yet, bastard!!!
Yun Mian returned to his barracks dejectedly, sat down on a stool, and began to reflect on why he had spoken out so hastily and shamelessly.
But she had been at the border for a month, and the injury on her finger was almost healed. Yun Mian was not one who could sit still, and she wanted to go back to Qiliang City and run around with the other kids, chasing after the old men selling candied haws and making sugar figures. At worst, she could go to the governor's house and play with the turtles he kept in the pond, which would be better than staying in the military camp and getting moldy.
"Mianmian can go and train with those soldiers." The system gave her a suggestion.
Yun Mian held up her face with a gloomy look: "They won't train with me. If I go to train with them, they will have to take care not to hurt me, and they may also think that I am bullying the weak. If I go, the uncles will definitely complain to my mother, saying that I am just making trouble!"
"..." Although it hasn't happened yet, I inexplicably feel that what the host said is exactly right.
The system thought for a moment and then said, "Mianmian also has 500 soldiers, which makes him a centurion. If you are bored, you can go and chat with them. After all, they are the people assigned to you by the emperor. You can't just put them in the barracks halfway and ignore them, right?"
Hearing this, Yun Mian's eyes lit up: "Yes, mother didn't take back my right to mobilize them. I am still their commander now!"
The little girl who was depressed just now suddenly jumped up and ran towards the place where the five hundred soldiers were.
They had followed her before, and later on, she and Wei Wu Chutian were both injured, so these five hundred people followed the main force to train and patrol the border. Yun Mian came at this time when they were taking a break.
"The little princess is here."
"My little princess, we have repaired the two pots that you broke yesterday. We will send them back later. We will definitely not let them put up that sign that says you are not allowed in again!"
"Yes, they are too bullying. Little princess, you didn't do it on purpose. We have fixed the pot. Don't worry even if you break it again next time!"
The moment Yun Mian stepped into the camp, he regretted his impulsiveness.
They are all good, but this is not the kind of good she wants!
Yun Mian smiled stiffly as they kept talking about the two pots. She tried to hold it back, but couldn't help saying, "How about we talk about something else? For example, for example...how much worse is our armor than the armor of the Xu soldiers?"
This question... they also have a lot to say!
Yun Mian listened carefully to the soldiers who had communicated with the border troops and even had conflicts with the Xu soldiers talking about the advantages and disadvantages of the two countries' equipment. After listening, the first thing that flashed through her mind was not the Xu soldiers, but the messy military camp and the military parade she watched with her mother while lying on the hospital bed before she died.
As the little girl thought about it, she couldn't help but become a little absent-minded. After a long time, she smacked her lips with envy and pride, and began to tell stories to the soldiers.
At least what she said, to them, was a story.
What's wearing the uniform and handsome blue and green military uniform?
What does it mean to always keep your back straight, because the backbone of a soldier represents the backbone of the country?
How come even their walking posture and stride are exactly the same?
There are many more, and they sound desirable, but the more you desire them, the more unreal they seem.
"Little Princess, what you said about marching in step and obeying orders is impossible." Someone couldn't help but shook his head and said, "If we gather in the camp now, you will never see any soldiers who can do that. It's not that we can't, but there is no need. We patrol the border every day, train, and fight... Where do we have time for those fancy things? We can only do it when we practice military formations."
Yun Mian also knew it was impossible. She patted the table and said, "But I have seen it in my dream. It is really amazing! If Daqing can have even one army that can absolutely obey orders and has top-notch equipment, we will definitely be able to defeat the four countries in no time!"
Her innocent and childish words made everyone laugh. Some people were looking forward to it, some said it was impossible, and some people responded by saying that they should conquer the other three kingdoms as soon as possible.
Anyway, it’s just boasting and dreaming, as long as everyone is happy, that’s all.
But after Yunmian smiled, she felt a little depressed. She asked the system: "Uncle System, can I still go back to the world where my mother and I lived?"
Although in that world, she was trapped in the blue and white room of the hospital due to illness for almost her entire short life, after coming to this world, she could better understand how rare the prosperity and stability of that world were.
That was the world where she was born. Although Yun Mian had never seen its power and prosperity with her own eyes, she couldn't help but miss it when she was daydreaming occasionally.
I don’t know if my mother in that world will cry her eyes out after I leave... Yunmian really wants to go back and hug her, and then tell her that I’m not really dead.
She is still alive and well, but will her mother in that world be heartbroken without Mianmian?
Noticing the host's sudden depression, the system was silent for a moment, but still did not choose to lie. Instead, it said: "Mianmian, there is a chance to go back. Maybe one day when you complete the mission of the same world and the same time river, you will be able to meet people who live there at the same time. But that is difficult unless we complete enough missions and unlock enough permissions bit by bit."
I'm sorry, but it's a stupid system that you can't get through even after more than 3,000 novice missions.
The initial permissions had been shut down and nothing was left after repeated mission failures.
It is now the lowest-ranking system in the General Administration, with even lower authority than systems that have just left the factory. Apart from being able to accompany the host to complete tasks and chat... it seems that it can't help in any other way.
“No~” a tender child’s voice sounded. When the system was stunned, Yun Mian said without hesitation: “Uncle System is very powerful. He was able to send Mian Mian to this world to see her mother. He is really super super powerful!”
"Also, Uncle System can see the big bad guy in Yun Yi's body, can fly very high into the sky, can recognize and understand all written languages, and can help me record a lot of things..."
Yunmian said a lot in one breath, then stopped and looked at it with a smile, and said seriously: "Uncle System is a hundred times better than Mianmian. He is already super super awesome!"
"So Uncle System, how about we go secretly and see what the fourth prince looks like?"
Yunmian: This is what the Art of War says: you must lower your vigilance first.
