"The general has given instructions on this matter, Madam. Please wear this."
Runtu took out a curtain from behind him and handed it to Zheng Quchi. She took it and put it on her head. The gauze scarf covered her from head to toe... and even dragged on the ground.
Runtu was taken aback for a moment, then said apologetically, "This was made to my height, so it's a little long. Please watch your step, Madam."
If she hadn't brought this up specifically, they could still be friends happily. Didn't she see that?
Despite his inner grumbling, Zheng Quchi still politely replied, "Thank you for reminding me, Commander Runqi."
"Madam, you needn't be so polite." Runtu dared not accept it.
He ordered someone to bring the carriage from behind over. Zheng Quchi lifted the curtain and carefully climbed into the carriage. After lowering the curtain, she had just sat down when she inadvertently heard Mu Gaoyi and Shi Hetong's voices.
"I told you to leave so quickly, where is he?"
"How would I know? They've all finished work, why hasn't he gone back to the barracks? Could it be that he doesn't know where we're staying and has gotten lost?"
That's pure nonsense. They're not children. If they can't find their way, can't they ask for directions?
Shi Hetong clearly knew that Mu Gaoyi was just talking nonsense. He said, "Wei Jinwei handed the person over to us, and now he's lost him. How are we going to explain this?"
"Whether it's lost or not is another matter, let's find the person first." Mu Gaoyi was also annoyed.
Zheng Quchi heard that the two people had appeared here because they had come back to find her.
Thinking about what she had to do next... she switched back to her female voice and called out to Runtu: "Runtu, please tell them for me that Aqing has already left and that they don't need to look for me."
"Are you my subordinate?"
Runtu inquired.
Just now, didn't she not want others to realize that "Aqing" was in contact with him?
"yes."
Times change.
Runtu had also overheard the conversation between the two. After responding to the general's wife, he strode over and called out to Mu Gaoyi and Shi Hetong.
Are you looking for Aqing?
The two men turned around and, by the light of the torches lit around the camp, recognized the newcomer as Commander Runqi.
They had no prior relationship with Runqidu, so they quickly stepped forward and bowed.
"So it's Commander Duanqi." The two men composed themselves and became slightly reserved.
Unlike Wei Yao, who always smiled and joked with them, Runqi Du was a true iron-blooded man, aloof and taciturn. When they stood in front of him, they had to be careful when they spoke, for fear of offending one of the four army commanders.
Suddenly, they realized with a start: "Ah Qing? Does Commander Runqi know Ah Qing?"
Runtu's calm, dark eyes were fixed on them: "She has already gone back and asked me to let you know."
The two were stunned: "You...you came to tell us?"
My goodness, who exactly is this Ah Qing?
Even the Cavalry Commander could be ordered to run away and deliver messages for her?
