Chapter 101 Why is Jie Chen such a jealous person?
Xiangying walked happily on the moonlit mountain path.
She trotted all the way back to where they were stationed.
In fact, the place where the deputy general camped was only half a mountain away from them.
If Xiangying hadn't been afraid of disturbing the children's sleep, he would have planned to leave a bomb to send them to hell before leaving.
After thinking about it, I decided to hold back.
Let’s wait until the deputy general dies in pain before we set off cannons to celebrate, huh!
Just as she reached the place where the exiled prisoners were stationed, she saw Jie Chen riding away on his horse.
Xiangying was stunned.
It’s so late, where is Jie Chen going?
Judging from the direction he was heading, he seemed to be heading into the city, not looking for the deputy general.
Xiangying thought about the fact that he had just discovered that Wei Jianjun was a spy, so he followed him quietly.
After walking for a distance, she led out a thousand-mile horse from her own space and followed it from a distance.
Fortunately, the road into the city is very flat, so even if he is very far away, he will not lose Jie Chen.
But after entering the city, it’s not so easy.
The city of Luzhou under the night is filled with absolute tranquility.
This place has been occupied by South Vietnamese forces, except for the occasional noisy noises coming from the main road not far away.
But the alley where Xiangying followed Jie Chen was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
She followed carefully, fearing to be discovered.
Fortunately, Jie Chen never looked back once.
Finally, Xie Chen stopped at the door of a house. He knocked on the door and heard a gentle female voice from inside: "I'm here."
The door opened, and Xiangying saw in the dim warm light in the yard that the person who opened the door for Jie Chen was a young girl of about seventeen or eighteen years old.
When the other party saw Xie Chen, he was immediately surprised and delighted: "Master Xie, please come in."
Xie Chen nodded without saying anything else. He just looked around vigilantly to make sure no one was following him.
Xiangying quickly hid, and when she looked again, Jie Chen had already entered someone else's yard.
She couldn't help but wonder.
What is the relationship between this girl and Jie Chen?
Concubine? Wife? Lover? Moonlight?
Xiangying thought silently for a moment.
Suddenly I realized that this matter had nothing to do with her.
So she made a prompt decision and turned around and left.
Now that he had entered the city, Xiangying found the map of Luzhou City from the library area in the space.
Scout around twenty granaries in advance.
Luzhou City is indeed a big city, and its twenty granaries are related to the supplies of the Nanyue soldiers coming and going.
Therefore, the granary here is not as laxly guarded as the one in Yucheng. The defense here is extremely strict.
There is a guard standing guard every five steps around each granary.
Xiangying climbed up the tree and watched from afar, squinting his eyes.
It seems that it is a bit difficult to get in.
Just as she was about to leave, two soldiers came up from below. Judging from their clothes, they should be captains.
One of them yawned and complained: "How long will we have to guard the granary like this without sleep?"
His companion replied, "It will be soon. In two or three days, the general will send people to take away this batch of food. Then we will be relieved."
As the two of them walked away, Xiangying narrowed her eyes.
No wonder there were so many people guarding twenty granaries, it turned out the general wanted it.
The general they are referring to should be the leader of the main force of this expedition to the Western Zhou Dynasty - General Changsheng.
People like the deputy general, Xie Chen and others had to obey his orders.
There was only one thing Xiangying didn't understand.
The war is over, why do they still need to take away so much food and supplies?
Nanyue was richer than the Western Zhou Dynasty, so it should not have been short of food.
Moreover, Xiangying always remembered the description of Luzhou's grain and grass in the original book.
The governor of Luzhou originally wanted to present this batch of grain and fodder to the general of Nanyue to show his sincere intention of surrendering.
But due to a sudden fire, twenty granaries were burned down.
So, the fire happened in these two days?
Seeing that it was getting late, Xiangying jumped down from the tree and hurried back to the camp under the moonlight.
Jie Chen didn't stay in the courtyard for long. When he walked out, he subconsciously looked towards the corner.
But there was no one there, only the cold moonlight.
Xie Chen stared intently, seeming to be distracted.
At this time, a woman's voice came from behind: "Master Jie, what are you thinking about?"
Xie Chen came back to his senses and glanced sideways: "Nothing, I'm going to go back. These few days, pay attention to strangers and be careful."
After saying that, he walked away, his figure disappearing into the darkness.
When Xie Chen returned to the camp where the exiled prisoners were stationed, all he saw were identical white tents.
The skinny monkey who was on night watch ran over to say hello, followed his gaze, and immediately smiled and raised his eyebrows.
"Isn't it amazing? My sister-in-law knows how to set up a tent. We all learned from her."
Xie Chenbo's eyes were dark, and he asked in a cold voice: "Was she honest tonight?"
The skinny monkey nodded: "Honestly, as soon as it got dark, my sister-in-law lay down and fell asleep."
Xie Chen pursed his lips: "Which one is her tent?"
The skinny monkey pointed to a place: "There."
Jie Chen walked over slowly, gently lifted the curtain, and looked inside in the moonlight.
Xiang Ying was lying in the middle, holding Xiang Yuanxiao with his left hand and Xiang Xiuxiu with his right hand.
Further to the left is Xiang Yuanlang lying flat on his back, and Tao Xue and Qi Fengyi lying on their sides.
She was sleeping soundly with these people.
Jie Chen slowly lowered the curtain, turned around and saw the skinny monkey smiling happily.
"Looking at my sister-in-law and her child living in peace and contentment, I envy the military supervisor. I really want to go home quickly, marry a wife, have a baby, and sleep on a warm bed with my child in my arms!"
Xie Chen's eyes pierced over like a knife: "Did you look at her?"
The smile on the skinny monkey's face disappeared immediately, and he lowered his head honestly: "I was wrong, my eyes are sick, and I always look around. I will donate my eyes to someone who doesn't want them, no, to someone who needs them..."
Jie Chen said coldly: "Go on patrol."
The skinny monkey ran away in shame.
He complained in his heart, why didn't he know before that their military supervisor Jie was actually a jealous person?
Early in the morning.
Xiangying was awakened by the noisy crying outside before he woke up.
Tao Xue pushed her and said, "Oh no, Princess. The deputy general has sent people to search."
Xiangying opened his eyes dazedly: "What's going on again? He's not dead yet?"
Why is it so hard to kill?
She gained a lot last night, and spent the whole night drawing a topographic map of the Luzhou granary in her space, preparing to lay out a perfect plan.
The damn deputy general sent someone to disturb her sweet dream again.
The three little ones were also as sleepy as rag dolls. When Tao Xue dressed them one by one, a fierce-looking soldier pierced the tent:
"It's so late and you're still sleeping! Get out now! The camp's granary was robbed last night, and the deputy general's belongings were all missing. There must be a traitor among us!"
"Come out quickly, we are going to search you all, not one will be spared!"
