Chapter 323 Underestimating Bai Yue's Dark Side
The two chatted and laughed as they returned to the government office hand in hand. Bai Zongren looked at them in surprise.
They were arguing with each other this morning, and now they are back to normal?
Young people are good. If there are any conflicts, they can just argue and then it will be over.
However, this is what he wanted to see, otherwise he would not feel at ease to leave.
"After dinner, I'm going back to Chizhou!"
Bai Zongren said while eating. He originally wanted to tell her in the afternoon, but his daughter did not come out of the room until the evening, so he had to wait until dinner to tell her.
"Such a hurry! Dad, it's not safe to ride at night. Why not wait until tomorrow morning..."
Although Bai Li was reluctant to leave his father, the war was important.
However, I don't mind it for a while.
"Tonight there's a moon, and it's no different from daytime.
And we have sentries along the way, so what's unsafe?
It's already Youshi after dinner, and it's not even Zishi when we get back to Qiangzhou, so we can still sleep until dawn!"
Bai Zongren ate steamed buns with wild vegetable soup in big gulps. Bai Li took a sip of the bitter wild vegetable soup without salt or oil and almost vomited it out.
Looking at the two men who were eating with gusto, she frowned and swallowed it.
"Dad, I'll give you some food to take back later. Your body can't handle eating this for a long time."
"My dear, our soldiers have wild vegetable soup and coarse flour steamed buns to eat. They are satisfied if they can eat until they are 80% full.
Many ordinary people in Simon couldn't even afford such steamed buns. Only after we came did they have the chance to eat a few meals of coarse flour porridge.
Dad only gets to eat white flour buns because he eats with you. He usually eats with the soldiers. It’s okay, as long as I can fill my stomach.”
Bai Li felt sad when she heard this, for her father, the soldiers and the common people.
I just hope that the war will end soon and that good crops can be planted on the Simon land as soon as possible so that all the soldiers and civilians can eat white flour steamed buns and meat and egg buns.
Bai Li ate a bun she took out from the space and felt full. She got up and went back to her room to prepare something to bring back to her father.
The bowl of wild vegetable soup she drank ended up in Nangong Min's stomach.
He had been decadent for so long and hadn't had a proper meal, so it was no surprise that he ate too much this time.
Bai Li came out of the room, dragging two large baskets covered with a cloth, which were full of food.
"Dad, take these buns with you to improve our food supply. Once we capture Simon, we'll have plenty of flour and rice!"
"Okay, with my daughter's words, Dad is full of energy!"
Bai Zongren left with Wang Haisheng, Bai An and several other personal soldiers. Bai Li stood on the city wall and watched them go away until their figures could no longer be seen in the telescope.
"Is that Wang Haisheng the son of the village chief of Wangjia Village?"
Nangong Min had some impression of him and was a little surprised that he was promoted so quickly and became the general's personal guard.
"He was brave and loyal. He once blocked an arrow for my father. After his injury healed, my father promoted him to be a personal guard."
“No wonder!”
"Li'er, you have to go out tomorrow, so go to bed early tonight!"
Bai Li's ambush plan is to set off tomorrow, taking Nangong Min's 5,000 private soldiers and 5,000 guerrillas outside the city to set up an ambush on the way Simon's army is coming.
Bai Li had rested enough during the day and was not sleepy at the moment, but she had to make some preparations, so it was time to go back to her room and cheat.
"Let's go. We need to deploy some troops in the city. I'll give you the deployment map later."
Bai Li handed the deployment map to Nangong Min and returned to the room. Just as he was about to enter the space, he suddenly felt panicked.
Bai Li frowned slightly. This feeling was like the one she had when Bai Yue and the others framed her. She felt a sense of loss of control, as if something was out of her control.
Could it be that Bai Yue and Shangguan Ying are going to cause trouble again?
Bai Li felt a little regretful that he didn't kill them all.
I wanted to teach them a lesson so that they would give up and not provoke her.
It seems that Bai Yuexin is not dead yet, and I'm afraid she will cause trouble again.
After thinking about it, he went to find Nangong Min again.
All the spies of the Great Zhou are under the control of his Nangong family. If you want to pass on a message, just look for him.
"Li'er, why are you here?"
I just told her to rest. If it wasn't something important, she wouldn't come over.
"Tell me, what's the matter."
"Do you know the news back home? For example, Shangguan Ying and Bai Yue."
Bai Li went straight to the point and didn't want to waste time.
"Shangguan Ying and her mother lived in the village closest to the capital. Bai Yue had an argument with her family and left. Her whereabouts are unknown now.
What's going on? Have they done something bad again? "
It’s no wonder Nangong Min thinks this way. The truth is, those women are all restless.
"Send a message back as quickly as possible. Make sure you find Bai Yue's whereabouts. I'm afraid she'll become desperate and do something bad to my family."
This was the only way Bai Li could think of for Bai Yue to take revenge on her. Otherwise, she would be thousands of miles away in Simon, and she would not be able to take revenge even if she wanted to.
"Okay, I'll write a letter and send it back by carrier pigeon immediately, asking the Nangong family to send someone to look for Bai Yue and protect your family at the same time."
Bai Li felt a little relieved when he saw Nangong Min release the carrier pigeon with his own eyes.
Unfortunately, Bai Li still underestimated the dark side of her cousin.
The capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
In a dilapidated temple, Bai Yue received a letter from a man in black and opened it. "You want me to find out how many troops the Great Zhou still has?"
Although Bai Yue didn't understand politics, he knew that this was a beheading job.
"No, I've already provided you with so much useful information. Laos promised to send troops to kill Bai Li, but there's still no movement. How can I trust you?"
"Don't worry, Bai Li is now the public enemy of several of our countries. Someone will naturally take care of her."
"What the boss wants you to do this time, you must find out clearly, and then whatever you want will be granted to you."
"If you don't take action now, once Bai Li captures Simon, your country will be next. Then you'll cry!"
Bai Yue said with a distorted face that she was driven out of the Shangguan family and could not return to her parents' home, so she became a homeless wanderer.
During this period, she suffered all kinds of insults and hardships. It was not until this man accidentally found out that she was Bai Li's cousin and came to her to ask her to do something that she was able to live a normal life.
Bai Yue was not stupid, she knew why people were looking for her.
She bargained with him, and after she provided him with some news about the military camp and court affairs that she had overheard at Shangguan's house, she got a large sum of money, bought a two-story courtyard house on the outskirts of the city, and bought a maid to take care of her.
She lived the life of a young lady again, but before she could enjoy it for a few days, she heard that Bai Li was engaged to Nangong Min, the man her former sister-in-law Shangguan Ying loved. She became a favorite of the emperor and became the commander-in-chief of the Western Expedition Army, leading the troops to attack Simon.
All over the country, everyone says that she is brave and resourceful, a heroine with great potential.
Now, she felt unbalanced again.
