After Lu Yun sent the letter, he came to help Wei General Wei Cong interrogate the Princess of the Northern Kingdom.
The princess of the Northern Kingdom was a little annoyed, uncomfortable and uneasy. The Northern Kingdom's envoys were found to be spying on the military affairs of the Southern Kingdom, and were accused of being "spies" overnight. Not to mention going to Jianye smoothly this time, it was even a question whether the two countries would use this as an excuse to resume the war. The princess of the Northern Kingdom went out with a mission, and she was absolutely unwilling to die here.
The Wei generals sent people to guard her in the tent, the maids were removed, and she was provided with good food and drink, but she could not go anywhere. Everyone around the princess of the Northern Kingdom was taken away for questioning, and the envoys kept giving gifts, saying good things, and saying that this was an accident. The princess returned to the town a few days ago, but later she panicked when she saw that the Wei generals had no intention of showing mercy.
One afternoon, Wei Cong came to inquire about the Northern Princess again. Wei Cong was as big as a mountain, with a murderous look in his eyes. He sat in front of the main seat with a big horse and a golden sword, looking at the weak princess in front of him with an expressionless face. Wei Cong sneered: "If the military arsenal had not been moved long ago, you guys with wolfish ambitions might have taken away something. Tell me, what is the purpose of your emperor sending you, the princess, to marry?"
Wei Cong smiled with his silver teeth and bloody mouth, which frightened the princess so much that she almost choked. The general said sinisterly, "If you don't tell me, I'll kill you! I'll just eat some military sticks, but you'll die. If you tell me, your servants will come back, and maybe you can still go to Jianye. Princess... think about it before you speak."
It is both a threat and a coercion, as well as an inducement and solicitation.
If she were an ordinary girl, she would be frightened to tears by this black-faced evil star.
Princess Beiguo's face turned pale. Until now, she couldn't believe that Wei Cong liked her. She had no face in front of Wei Cong. Everything, all the misunderstandings, were because, because... Princess Beiguo's face turned red, and she stood up with trembling shoulders. She blurted out: "I was deceived! It was Luo Lingyu, that cousin of Lu Sanlang who deceived me! She was jealous of me and Lu Sanlang, she framed me, she deliberately approached me and set a trap for me..."
The Northern Princess' eyes were red, and when she mentioned "Luo Lingyu", her cheek muscles trembled, and her expression was almost distorted. At this point, how could she not know that she was deceived by Luo Lingyu's harmless appearance?
Wei Cong's eyebrows jumped, he didn't expect this to happen. He frowned and waited to hear what the princess of the Northern Kingdom said. If what the princess said was right, then Luo Lingyu was suspected of leaking military secrets. Wei Cong's heart sank more and more, how could a woman like Luo Lingyu leak military secrets? How could she know secrets like the military arsenal? Could it be that Lu Sanlang told her? Lu Sanlang casually told such a thing to a woman, was it his own fate, or did the entire huge family betray the Southern Kingdom... There were so many conspiracies that Wei Cong looked extremely serious.
Seeing that there was hope, the Princess of the Northern Kingdom's eyes darkened and tears immediately filled her eyes. When she talked about "Luo Lingyu's" deep scheming, her words became even more fierce.
When she mentioned that Luo Lingyu tricked her into riding a horse near the military arsenal and pointed out the military arsenal to her, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and a pleasant male voice like the collision of jades came slowly from behind: "This is impossible. My cousin is just a weak woman, and she has only been in Nanyang for less than half a month. How could she know where the military arsenal is in half a month?"
When he turned around, he saw Lu Sanlang Lu Yun, who had a handsome face and a voice as clear as a bamboo chime.
Wei Cong's eyes flashed, and the Princess of the Northern Kingdom's face darkened.
As Luo Lingyu herself said to Lu Yun, everything was her guess. She had never clearly said or promised anything to the Princess of the Northern Kingdom. Ambiguous words were not enough to convict Luo Lingyu. Moreover, there was Lu Yun. Lu Yun walked into the tent and looked at General Wei. The general remained silent, as if he was sensitive to something. However, in front of a princess of an enemy country, General Wei would not speak out to deny the face of his own general.
Lu Sanlang was able to lower his eyes and look at the princess quietly: "The princess's spying on military secrets was spontaneous. No matter how many inducements there are, it cannot be washed away."
Lu Yun glanced at General Wei and smiled: "The key point is not to make mistakes."
Wei Cong's face immediately darkened, realizing that he was being led away by the Princess of the Northern Kingdom. General Wei endured and didn't slam the table and yell on the spot, and saw Lu Sanlang coming over, lifting his robe and sitting down. Lieutenant Lu, who was good at asking questions, came, and General Wei focused on being the background air and didn't say anything. Seeing Lu Sanlang raised his pretty face, his eyebrows slightly raised. It was clearly an elegant and timeless eyebrow-raising action, but it made the Princess of the Northern Kingdom avoid his eyes uneasily. And Lu Yun said slowly: "In fact, this matter is extremely obvious. The two countries are enemies at war, and there is no need to ask. But since the princess's side came to marry with a certain purpose, it seems that they will be defeated at the first stop. Even if we don't kill the princess and let the princess go back to the Northern Kingdom. After returning, I'm afraid she will die, right?"
The Northern Princess' lips trembled and her face became even more stiff. After a while, she raised her eyes coldly and stared at Lu Yun. At this time, she had already seen Lu Sanlang's indifference and knew that he would not spare her. The princess just choked and said, "What do you want to do?"
Lu Yun said softly: "In fact, in addition to sending the envoys back, we can also pretend that we don't know about this matter, just be on guard against the princess, and let you enter Jianye safely, so that you can talk to our Majesty."
Princess of the Northern Kingdom: "Really?!"
Then he warned: "Are you doing this for some conspiracy?"
Lu Yun smiled with his lips curled, his eyes sparkling, breaking the icy and snowy temperament around him. He smiled, which was so charming that the Princess of the Northern Kingdom, who was on guard, became dazed and softened. It took a long time to hear what Lu Yun said - "Princess, just give me a general direction, which direction your army is ambushing in."
Wei Cong, who was listening in, felt his eyebrows twitching and looked at Lu Yun sharply.
Princess of the Northern Kingdom: “……!”
Her breathing suddenly intensified, and her whole body muscles tensed. Under Lu Yun's deep gaze, when she spoke, her voice was hoarse: "...I...I don't understand what you are talking about..."
Lu Yun smiled and said, "Don't be so nervous. I'm not asking where your army is right now. The border between the North and South is so wide, I just want to ask for the general direction. Even if you don't tell me, since I already have this guess, I will check it later. It's just a matter of time. You just helped me shorten the time, and it doesn't count as leaking military secrets."
