Chapter 273 Passive Slowdown

Bei Jingchu admired her own smooth lips, pouted her lips and blew a kiss to herself in the mirror, while replying, "I don't know."

"But gunpowder is Dai Viet's secret recipe and cannot be leaked."

"Look, Tu Ning succeeded this time, proving there are spies in the Ministry of War."

"Who knows if there are any in the army?"

She finally stopped dithering, put down the mirror, smiled, and said with an innocent look, "This is just a trick, just like the imperial physician checking the pulse regularly."

"There is nothing wrong with the army. Now is the time for us to gain the upper hand. We can also check if there are any spies."

"It's too troublesome to search them one by one. Let's just set up a trap to lure them out."

"Anyway, I am being looked down upon right now. I guess everyone thinks I am treating this as a trifle, just like you do."

Speaking of this, Bei Jingchu raised his head somewhat proudly.

"I'm such a smart person, I'll be discovered in the future!"

"Before they believe that I am smart and intelligent, I will try to trick them."

"Otherwise, like you, you'll find out that I'm smart and it'll be hard to deceive you!"

Mu Chuyuan: ...Although what you said makes sense, my hands are a little itchy, and I feel like the little prince is being naughty.

The Tu Ning army was overjoyed when they received the news. They took the intelligence sent by the spies and laughed, saying: "Even if the Vietnamese Dynasty has abundant food and weapons, they can't hide that their commander is an ignorant child."

"Today, while their defense is weak, we will intercept their rear."

"Capturing the little prince alive will definitely put a dent in the Yue Dynasty's arrogance!"

The battle ahead was going smoother than previous overwhelming victories, almost like a crushing victory.

Many people sighed that this siege was too smooth.

At the same time, more people were worried about defending the empty rear.

Some people pretended to be worried, but they were secretly happy in their hearts.

This time, Tu Ning must have sent a lot of troops to leave, and the rear of the Vietnamese army must have been captured.

At this time, behind.

"pretty!"

Bei Jingchu clapped his hands and said with an undisguised smile: "I said there were fools being fooled."

Then she stretched out her little hand and said to Bei Qin, "I lost the bet. Give me the money."

Bei Qin: "...Who could have thought of such an obvious trap? There really are fools who would step into it."

"Because the fool thinks I am the fool."

"Don't think everyone is smart. Smart people are all alike, but stupid people are stupid in all kinds of ways."

The captured general was so angry that he was about to explode when they kept calling him a fool.

But she could only suppress her impotent rage: "Bitch! A sinister and vicious woman, she only knows how to use despicable means."

Bei Jingchu was very sensitive to the word "sinister" and smiled brightly: "Thank you for the compliment~"

Then he quickly moved his crotch to his face and had someone cover his mouth.

"These are important people. Don't let them bite their tongues to death."

Mu Chuyuan managed to squeeze out a compliment: "Your Highness is indeed the crown prince chosen by His Majesty. Although he is young, he is as capable as an adult."

Bei Jingchu was not humble at all and climbed up the ladder immediately: "Hehe, the reason why a genius is a genius has nothing to do with age."

Her words were arrogant, but no one refuted them.

All the facts of the past are enough to support her pride.

Bei Jingchu snapped his fingers and ordered, "Drag him away and torture him to find out who the spy is."

After thinking about it, she felt that it was unreliable and started to shake people up: "Bei Qin, you go."

"There are so many people here. It shouldn't be impossible for you to pry open the mouths of one or two of them, right?"

"Yes, sir."

The man was dragged away mercilessly. Everyone was shocked by today's reversal. From the child, she stood there with her hands behind her back, expressionless.

I could vaguely see the shadow of the man on the dragon chair.

Bei Jingchu put her hands behind her back, quietly rubbing her fingers that were a little painful from playing the guitar too hard, and tried hard to maintain a straight facial expression.

Woohoo, she is so unlucky~

The spy in the dark returned to the barracks and broke out in a cold sweat when he heard about the trap set today to lure the enemy.

But he comforted himself, thinking that it was all right and that he should not act rashly. There were only two people who knew his identity and they were strong-willed and could withstand the torture and would not give him away.

At this time in the torture chamber, Bei Qin ordered the executioner to stop whipping the prisoner.

The little fox said in a high-sounding manner: "Don't be so rude~ It's not good to see too much blood~"

"We are a friendly army, so please don't whip our guests."

"If any of you can tell me who the spy is, you will be spared."

No matter what everyone knew, they all gritted their teeth and refused to say anything.

Bei Qin was not in a hurry either.

Normal torture is to make the body feel pain.

However, the most effective way to get people to tell the truth is to win their hearts.

He went out and ordered, "Don't lock them up in one place, either in a tent, a cell, or a cave."

"They should be locked up separately in dark places, and they should not be allowed to hear any sound from outside."

Just like that, for one, two, and three days, I no longer cared about these people.

Mu Chuyuan came to ask: "Did the guards forget the order of His Highness?"

Bei Qin didn't want to explain any more: "Don't worry, Deputy General. Your Highness didn't rush me. Why are you rushing me?"

Mu Chuyuan: "... Mainly because I see you are so idle every day, I am afraid you will forget about it."

He just smiled and was too lazy to say anything more.

Mu Chuyuan: ...These two people from the Bei family seem to look down on him.

Mu Chuyuan ran away feeling wronged and went to complain to other brothers.

Xie Xi was one of them. As he listened to her complaint, she said, "It's fine that Her Highness looks down on me. I'm young but I can take on the important task of a country. I did offend her before and made her think I was stupid."

"But what does Beiqin rely on?"

"Originally, His Highness asked him to interrogate the captives, but he locked them up and went off to play."

Xie Xi became more and more delighted as she listened, and she could hardly suppress the smile.

God really favored him by making the prince confused and sending a lazy and foolish man to judge the case.
