Believe it or not, it's actually possible.
Di Jingling quickly scanned the contents before him, his expression instantly turning solemn.
He slowly raised his head and looked at Xiao Tang.
That look made Xiao Tang feel a little nervous.
"What's wrong?"
What kind of look is that?
"His Majesty commands me to return."
"Oh...then you'd better hurry back."
[This part isn't in the book... but the plot has already changed, so could something really go wrong?]
Xiao Tang's urging manner made Di Jingling feel utterly frustrated.
He stood up, turned and left.
Ignoring the fact that his clothes were wrinkled.
The letter fell to the ground, and as he left, a gust of wind caused it to flutter around her feet.
Xiao Tang's gaze froze for a moment, then she slowly bent down and picked up the letter.
"The young emperor is missing. Return immediately."
Missing?
Could it be that the little one was too bored in the palace and ran out to play by itself?
The young emperor was not one to stay put.
The late emperor's thoughts were quite strange. He knew perfectly well that this young crown prince was the most playful and unruly, so how could he possibly be content to sit on the throne?
But the late emperor entrusted the heavy responsibility of the throne to such a young boy.
I'm completely baffled.
In the end, she even suspected... that the late emperor might have deliberately chosen a naughty child as the crown prince to pave the way for Di Jingling's ascension to the throne.
Later, the regent disliked the young emperor and seized the throne, thus ending the little brat's involvement.
The more Xiao Tang thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
She rubbed her forehead, her mind racing with a myriad of thoughts.
She suddenly spotted Di Jingling's bed.
The bed was originally made of straw, but because of the commotion last night, it sank down.
She stepped forward and covered the dented area with a layer of padded material.
She left only after completing this step.
Yan Jiu has already left with Di Jingling.
The other soldiers were still patrolling the camp.
Suddenly a guard rushed over and blocked Xiao Tang's path. "Strategist, please wait."
Xiao Tang: "What?"
“Several assassins came to provoke us just now. Upon investigation, they turned out to be the Seventh Prince’s men. He is probably lurking nearby, waiting for an opportunity to strike.” The young guard counted on his fingers. “The Regent just rushed off. I’m afraid there’s no one in the army to take charge. I request the strategist to make a decision.”
Xiao Tang finally understood what it meant to be forced into something you weren't meant to do.
She never imagined that she would rise from a country bumpkin to a strategist.
Good idea...
She asked tentatively, "Since you said they were suicide soldiers, are they all dead?"
The guard nodded repeatedly, "Yes!"
"In that case, do you know how many assassins are lying in ambush around here?" she asked cautiously.
Di Jingling left in a hurry, and it just so happened that Di Yanhen's assassins arrived shortly after he left.
Something's definitely up!
Could there be an ambush if Di Jingling goes back?
Xiao Tang's heart tightened.
The guards were still waiting for her decision, unsure of what she would do next, and could only watch her expectantly.
Xiao Tang knew she couldn't hesitate now and had to make a decision immediately. She clenched her fist and said, "Let me calculate this divination."
She took a stick and drew a Bagua diagram on the ground.
The movements were skillful.
The guards standing nearby were also stunned.
I just want to praise this strategist; he's truly got a knack for it!
It's easy to calculate how many assassins are around.
Because they went there with the mindset of going to their deaths, the Black and White Impermanence will probably often be hovering around them.
The aura of death emanating from them was easily visible; the black mist shot straight into the sky, making them easy to detect.
After some calculations, she said in a low voice, "There are twenty people lying in ambush around here."
The young guard looked on in disbelief.
After all, it concerns the safety of their military camp.
He even doubted whether the strategist had just said it offhand and made it up.
He quickly ordered another guard to go out and check.
However, the guard immediately rushed back, "Strategist, something bad has happened! The assassins have already broken in."
"What's the panic? Form a battle formation!"
Xiao Tang wasn't actually flustered or concerned about this kind of thing.
She already knows the male lead's intelligence perfectly!
"You, you, you, go and order the archers to ambush me according to my instructions. And you, go and have someone ambush the other side."
After giving his instructions, Xiao Tang returned to the commander's tent.
[Ding! Side quest activated! Host, please rescue the young emperor from the male lead's clutches. You will receive 3000 points.]
3000 points, that's quite a lot.
but……
Is the little emperor in the hands of the scoundrel male protagonist?
She abruptly lifted the curtain. "Young man, hurry and chase after the Regent! Tell him there's a trap, and that he shouldn't come back!"
This is...
The plot has moved forward again!
The male protagonist, a dog, captured the emperor and forced him to ascend the throne, prompting the regent, who was far away on the frontier, to rush back.
However, unlike in the book, the innocent female protagonist will stay by the side of the main villain, since the main villain has already forcibly imprisoned her by his side.
When the villain returns, he will inevitably be devoured by countless venomous insects!
Thinking of the horrific scene of his death, Xiao Tang couldn't help but shudder.
To be fair, the main villain can't die!
After giving instructions to the guards, she returned to her tent. Suddenly, a cold, sharp blade landed on her neck.
"Military Advisor Hao, you never expected me to be here, did you?"
Di Yanhen's voice.
He held a dagger to her neck.
There was a suppressed excitement in his voice.
It seemed as if victory was in sight.
Xiao Tang had expected him to appear, but she hadn't expected him to appear so early. She just didn't know what this male lead was thinking.
