Chapter 217 What happened last night must not happen again!
Ye Zheng also glanced back and said perfunctorily, "Nothing, it's just that the Emperor has ordered that the guards in the camp be strengthened."
"Here?"
“…”
"Do we really need so many people?"
Ye Zheng coughed lightly.
Indeed, there were more than a dozen people guarding outside a tent, and they were all elite warriors among the Taining Guards. It was indeed a bit inappropriate.
But today, Zhu Feng talked with the commanders of Taining Guard and Fuyu Guard for an entire afternoon, and then mobilized some troops. He stayed in the tent alone for a long time, and then suddenly called himself over and ordered to strengthen the guards in the camp.
He also emphasized one sentence -
What happened last night must not happen again!
What happened last night? Ye Zheng used his toes to think and thought of two things. One was that the gentleman rushed into the Yue army camp alone without telling anyone and killed people; the other was -
Si Nanyan was robbed.
Since there were already people guarding the emperor's tent, the next step to reinforce it was naturally Si Nanyan's side. So he simply transferred twelve people at once and surrounded the small tent on all sides!
It's foolproof.
Seeing Nan Yan still looking at them with a puzzled expression, Ye Zheng coughed lightly and said, "Alright, don't ask too much about military matters. Go back quickly. You are not allowed to leave the tent tonight. Understand?"
"oh."
Nan Yan was originally listless, so she just agreed and walked back to the tent.
Ye Zheng waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately surrounded the tent.
When Nan Yan returned to the tent, she originally thought that Li Bu Shang had fallen asleep, but the child had been sitting by the bed waiting for her. When he saw her return, he hurried over and asked, "Nan Yan, where have you been?"
"I haven't been anywhere. Why aren't you asleep yet? It's so late."
"I’m waiting for you."
"Go to bed quickly."
She took him to wash up and made the bed for him. Li Bushang then climbed onto the bed obediently. Nan Yan also lay down on her own bed, but couldn't sleep.
At this time, Li Bushang said: "Nan Yan, tell me about your past."
"What?"
"You always say I'm young, so what were you doing when you were fifteen—no, sixteen?"
Nan Yan was so pestered by him that she had no choice but to think about it.
What were you doing when you were sixteen?
She thought for a moment and said, "When I was sixteen, all I thought about was how to feed myself."
"Eat enough? Aren't you full?"
"Um."
"Is your family poor?"
Nan Yan thought of the courtyard with three entrances and exits at home, and the exquisite carved beams and painted pillars, and said, "It's not that I'm poor, it's just that I have too many brothers and sisters. They - they like to play games with me. Only the winner can eat, and the loser doesn't get to eat."
"What game?"
"Bandit Game."
“…”
Li Bushang stared at her quietly with his wolf-like eyes. After a while, he suddenly said, "Your things were taken away, so you can't eat enough."
“…”
"You were bullied."
Nan Yan was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that this child was so sensitive and actually hit the mark right away.
She smiled awkwardly.
Li Bushan looked at her for a while and said, "Someone is bullying you, but don't be afraid. I will protect you. In the future, I will also make sure you have enough to eat."
Nan Yan couldn't help laughing, wondering where this kid got such great ambition.
But he couldn't bear to hit him, so he smiled and said, "Okay, I'll rely on you in the future."
