Lin Aoxue read this short letter many times over and over again, her heart was sour, her throat was choked up, and it was hard to say a word. In the end, she couldn't hold back her tears.

A line of warm tears poured out of her eyes, slid down her cheeks, submerged into the soil under her feet, and soon disappeared. The unbearable pain in her nose rolled in her heart, making her red eyes reveal her fragility. But she quickly covered her face with her cuff, hiding the shattering and noisy pain at that moment.

With Ying Si by her side, she watched Lin Aoxue teardrops from the corners of her eyes, which was both shocking and moving.

A man has tears and does not flick. In Yingsi's view, Lin Aoxue is a man who stands up to the sky. She has the talent of a soldier and is unparalleled in courage. Once on the battlefield, she can take the head of an enemy general among thousands of troops and can rush to the championship. In a rage, he privately dispatched troops and horses for Yunyan to break out of Xingbeiguan, and his momentum was unparalleled in the world.

But it is such a person who stands above the sky, but the moment he saw Yunyan's handwriting, he shed tears weakly.

He saw everything that Yunyan did for Lin Aoxue. He thought that Lin Aoxue was not worth Yunyan's attention at all. Lin Aoxue was in the army, and when he was busy, he didn't even care about going to the hospital to see Yunyan. Compared with Yunyan's treatment of Lin Aoxue The tenderness and affection of Lin Aoxue can be described as being ruthless.

However, at this moment, that single tear completely washed away his dissatisfaction and blame for Lin Aoxue in his heart. It turned out that such a **** man would also cry.

He lowered his head silently, averted his gaze, and stopped looking at Lin Aoxue.

Lin Aoxue tried her best to calm down the turbulent emotions in her heart. When she put down her sleeves, the expression on her face returned to normal. She folded the letter, put it back into the wooden box, then took out the two jade pendants, put the golden key on her body into the wooden box, snapped the cover of the box, and handed it over to the shadow shop :

"You lock this thing back up and bury it on the spot."

Ying Si was one of the shadow guards. Yunyan handed over the shadow guard to Lin Aoxue, and then the shadow guard had to obey Lin Aoxue's orders. If he had a hint of reluctance in his heart before, now those slight grievances have vanished.

He took the wooden box from Lin Aoxue's hand, and locked the mechanism on the wooden box in a different way from before. After confirming that it was correct, he buried the box again.

In order to prevent people from recognizing the difference between the new mud and the old soil, he also found some dead grass and fallen leaves, and laid a layer on the roots, completely covering up the traces left after digging the soil.

After everything was settled, Lin Aoxue asked him with a hammer:

"What are your plans for the future?"

While cleaning up the traces under the tree, Ying Si replied:

"As a shadow guard, I naturally have to perform the duties of a shadow guard. Miss Yun asks me to be loyal to you, and I will listen to your dispatch, join the army with you, and be on call at any time."

Lin Aoxue frowned and glanced at the stab wound on Ying Si's waist:

"But you're still hurt."

Ying Si's eyebrows squinted, and the light in his eyes was cold:

"It's just a minor injury, nothing serious."

He felt that Lin Aoxue was questioning his ability.

Lin Aoxue blinked, seeing Yingsi insisting, as if she said one more word, this person will try to prove that he still has spare power. Since Ying Si insisted, she couldn't say anything more, so she sighed helplessly and said:

"If you want to follow along, just follow, but act carefully, and be careful not to let the wound worsen. It's better to get better sooner, so as not to make a mess."

Lin Aoxue understood Ying Si's temperament a little bit, so she changed her words to another way that Ying Si could accept.

Ying Si snorted coldly and didn't answer, but Lin Aoxue knew that he had heard it.

Lin Aoxue spit out a turbid breath and said again:

"Let's go, lead the way, get out of here, and go back to the barracks."

This forest was arranged according to the rules in Qimen Dunjia. Lin Aoxue didn't know much about it. If he walked in any direction, he would most likely get lost.

Without any hesitation, Ying Si turned around and walked away, the wind was blowing step by step, Lin Aoxue felt a little amused, this Ying Si looked calm and steady, but it seemed extraordinarily naive in these small places.

It was late at night when she returned to the barracks. The guards stationed outside the camp were tired and tired. Although they were standing at the door, they shook their heads with the gun barrels in their hands, and they might fall asleep at any time.

Lin Aoxue came out of the dark, carefully passed between the two guards, returned to his tent, and lay down on the bed with his clothes on, then he began to think again.

She got too much information today, about the barbarians, Beichen, and even about Yunyan.

Yun Yan is indeed a powerful woman. Under Bei Chenhe's eyes, she can cultivate her own cronies, and there are as many as eleven people, all of whom are good players. Now, she has given all of this, the power that she has worked so hard to cultivate, into Lin Aoxue's hands without reservation.

This is not only a huge force, but also Yunyan's unreserved trust in Lin Aoxue and a fiery sincerity.

It's heavy enough to make Lin Aoxue's mind go crazy, and he will give all the affection he has for it.

She felt a little dizzy on her forehead. She had been running around for several days, returning from the Central Plains battlefield, rushing thousands of miles to help Yiping, and then dispatching troops to Xingbeiguan to recover the lost ground, and then led the troops to chase out of the pass, and at night, she was intrigued with Xuanhe, Getting the things Yunyan handed over from the shadow shop, she was exhausted and exhausted.

What's more, when she was outside the customs, she was in a hurry because of Yunyan's capture and she was helpless, and suffered internal trauma.

She closed her eyes, pressed her forehead, and slept for a while. No matter how busy she was, she should take a break from time to time. Otherwise, once her body was dragged down, she would have no money to save Yunyan.

Lin Aoxue closed her eyes, and her consciousness was dazed.

The sound of the horn in the morning woke her up, she rolled over and sat up, shook her head vigorously, and immediately got up and poured cold water on her face to wake her up faster. Today is the seventeenth of the month, and there is no war in the camp. In the future, she will go to Fuyun Village to get in touch with the son of her father's former department.

But before that, there should be some important things to deal with.

As soon as she washed her face, a messenger came from outside the tent, and Pei Qing invited her to discuss matters in the tent.

Lin Aoxue didn't stay in the house for too long. After she packed up her clothes, she went to see Pei Qing.

Pei Qing waited for her to come, and after asking her to sit down, he said to her:

"Yesterday night, I sent a messenger to Yiping to report the battle situation of Xingbeiguan to the general. The order arrived this morning. The general said that he was unwell, and he needed to recover in Yiping for some time. He sent me two. Continue to be stationed at Xingbeiguan to prevent the return of the barbarians."

Lin Aoxue nodded, remembering that she led the troops out of the city yesterday, and asked:

"About my privately sending troops to pursue the barbarian team yesterday, did the general say how to deal with it?"

Hearing this, Pei Qing showed a smile on his face, shook his head gently, and said:

"General Lin Pian don't need to worry. I told the general about this matter. After the two of us discussed it, we sent troops to pursue it. As for the detailed matters outside the customs, the general did not ask in detail. It should be safe in a short time."

Lin Aoxue never thought that Pei Qing would reply to her like this. She was startled and opened her mouth in astonishment.

If there is no accident, it will take Beichenlong’s injury to recover before he can have the energy to investigate it, but when Beichenlong’s injury is healed, I don’t know how long it will be. Today’s battle has not had any bad results. Whether it will be pursued or not is uncertain.

Pei Qing abused his private power and gave Lin Aoxue a cover.

Lin Aoxue was shocked, she suddenly stood up and bowed respectfully to Pei Qing:

"General Pei's kindness will be remembered in my heart."

Pei Qing waved his hand, quickly stepped forward to help her up, and said with a smile:

"General Lin Pian doesn't need to do this. You and I are both generals of Beichen, and we should protect and support each other. Now that the barbarians outside the customs are surrounded, and the army is in turmoil in the country, under such a situation, in our army, we really shouldn't If there is more civil strife, the generals of the Chinese army will be destroyed in vain."

Lin Aoxue was moved by Pei Qing's righteousness. She sighed in her heart. If all the generals in Beichen Army were like Pei Qing, then Xing Beiguan would have less battles. Yang Jin and Guo Wencheng, who were killed by Bei Chenlong, were also such good generals. However, these two lacked Pei Qing's ability to judge the situation, bend and stretch, and died for no reason when they were not full of wings.

Lin Aoxue sighed in her heart, so she discussed with Pei Qing about the garrison arrangement in Xingbei Guanzhong, and said no thanks.

It was almost noon after she came out of Pei Qing's tent. Lin Aoxue went to the school grounds to supervise the soldiers' drills. Since she was promoted to the county commander, she seldom supervised the soldiers' training in person. There were always too many things to do on weekdays. , Now that she wants to go out of the army, she can't be in a hurry. When she has a rare moment of free time, she comes to the school grounds to take a look.

The soldiers on the school ground were shouting loudly when they were practicing. Lin Aoxue approached the school field, and suddenly wanted to see how Lu Sheng was doing in the army recently.

Lu Sheng has followed Lin Aoxue to the north and south since two years ago. Although he is not as brave as Lin Aoxue, he has made outstanding achievements in battle. He has successfully survived the battlefield and accumulated a lot of military merit. Has a certain reputation in the army.

At that time, Xu He, who often followed Lu Sheng to the front and back of Lin Aoxue's horses, also sat in the position of a hundred households from an ordinary pawn. The official position was not high, but their promotion speed was extremely fast among the whole army.

When Lin Aoxue came, Lu Sheng was supervising the soldiers' drills on the school grounds, talking to his soldiers about the use of weapons and **** the enemy faster on the battlefield to protect himself. After he became a thousand households, he gradually used his time to study the way of arranging troops, and his own martial arts also increased year by year, making rapid progress.

Lin Aoxue looked at it from a distance, and suddenly lifted a stone with the toes of his toes, and flicked towards Lu Sheng with his two fingers.

Lu Sheng, who was talking with his soldiers in detail, suddenly moved his ears, and was keenly aware of the subtle sound of the stone breaking through the air. He turned the Pu Dao in his hand and put it straight behind him. The shot of the stone deflected, leaving only a small white mark on Pu Dao's dark silver blade.

There was an uproar among the soldiers, who clapped and applauded.

Lu Sheng looked back, but saw Lin Aoxue smiling with satisfaction and nodding at him, Lu Sheng was overjoyed, turned his head and scolded, and told the soldiers to stop making noise and practice well, and then quickly walked towards Lin Aoxue and handed over. Said a "partial general".

With a smile in her eyes, Lin Aoxue praised happily:

"Yes, yes, even in the army, I haven't let down my guard, and I can be on my own."

Lu Sheng got Lin Aoxue's compliment, but his face showed two points of shame. He smiled and touched the back of his head, saying:

"Thanks to the cultivation of the generals, Lu Sheng's existence today is absolutely inseparable from the kindness of the generals."

If there is no Lin Aoxue, not to mention becoming a thousand households, even the few wars when he first entered the military camp, whether he will survive or not is still unknown. Right now, although his great revenge has not yet been avenged, he is no longer the cowardly person who was taken away by the hatred. As Lin Aoxue said, he can be on his own.

Lin Aoxue heard Lu Sheng's words, but said with a smile:

"Others can help you are limited. Your achievements are mostly due to your own efforts. Remember to guard against arrogance and impatience, go ahead and continue to practice."

Lu Sheng was always attentive to Lin Aoxue's words. At this time, when Lin Aoxue said it, he said obediently:

"Yes, my subordinates remember it."

When Lu Sheng turned around and returned to the front of the formation, he continued to instruct his soldiers to drill. Lin Aoxue walked around the school grounds again. She suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen Bei Chenji for a long time. She frowned slightly, guessing that Bei Chenji might follow. Bei Chenlong went to Yiping together and stopped paying attention, then left the military camp and went to Fuyun Village.

After she came to Fuyun Village, she found the wine table mentioned in the letter Yunyan left her, ordered a pot of wine, and waited by the window with her own drink.

From the window of this wine table, you can see the closed door of Yanxue Medical Hall.

There are still not many pedestrians on the street, and the business in Fuyun Village is not as prosperous as usual. There are a few drinkers sitting in the hall, which is less than 30% of the number in the heyday. The impact of the war on Xingbeiguan is obvious. Even the people who live in Xingbeiguan all the year round will not be able to quickly return to their normal state when they encounter the danger of Xingbeiguan breaking the city.

Lin Aoxue sighed softly, every war will bring countless pains, and also destroy a lot of things, emotions, wealth, and silk, all of which are burnt.

She put the sapphire jade obtained from Yunyan on her waist and sat at the table, drinking a drink from time to time.

About half an hour later, one person walked up the stairs, walked across the hall, stood behind Lin Aoxue, raised his hand and pressed her shoulder.

Lin Aoxue grabbed the man's wrist, not allowing him to come any closer.

As early as when this person was walking up the stairs, Lin Aoxue had heard the footsteps coming from the stairs. The footsteps of a martial artist were completely different from those of ordinary drinkers. Lin Aoxue was surprised.

This person walked behind her, which confirmed Lin Aoxue's guess.

But when she turned back, she was still startled by what she saw.

She never thought that the person standing behind her was actually Pei Qing.

Pei Qing wore plain white clothes on this trip. It seemed that he lacked the lingering style of the generals, but he felt a little more refined. He had a gentle expression. Although he was caught by Lin Aoxue's wrist, he didn't feel annoyed at all. Instead, he nodded to Lin Aoxue with a smile, and said jokingly with a wink:

"There are so many affairs in the military, and General Lin Pian actually went out to drink while he was busy. I caught him this time. Be careful, I will report this matter and make you suffer."

Lin Aoxue's mind was in a mess, and she couldn't distinguish the current situation. When she saw that it was Pei Qing, she suddenly lost her words, and even the belly draft she made at the beginning was useless.

"General Pei also came to Fuyun Village to drink?"

She was a little unsure whether Pei Qing was passing by unintentionally, or whether he really came to meet her.

Just when she was wondering, Pei Qing actually sat down on the other side of the wine table, took the wine glass and jug, poured a glass of wine by himself, and said with a smile:

"Yeah, I heard today that Xingbei's jade has a new item. It is said to be made of sapphire from Yuezhou, but it's a good treasure. Will General Lin be interested in seeing it?"

Lin Aoxue's ears trembled, and the words "Yuezhou sapphire" attracted her attention, because the sapphire used as a token of connection was also made of Yuezhou sapphire. Because of this, Lin Aoxue suddenly clarified Pei Qing's identity, and Pei Qing really came to connect with her.

She felt absurd and fortunate, and at the same time there was a sense of enlightenment in her heart. Pei Qing, who had been taking good care of her in the army, turned out to be the informant who contacted Yunyan in her father's old department. And the magnanimity of handing over 200,000 soldiers and horses to Lin Aoxue for no reason earlier had a reasonable explanation.

Lin Aoxue put down the wine glass in his hand, with a smile on his face, and replied:

"Since it was General Pei's invitation, Lin Aoxue should accompany him."

Pei Qing laughed, turned his head and called Zhuang Nei Xiaoer, ordered a few snacks, and ate with Lin Aoxue while chatting.

"General Pei and Senior Qin Nanan are old?"

During the banquet, Lin Aoxue lowered his head and asked in a voice that could only be heard by the two at the table.

Qin Nanan was Lin Aoxue's father's former department, and he was a senior with the same seniority as Sui Ming. Yunyan's letter to Lin Aoxue stated that the person who connected to Lin Aoxue was Qin Nanan's son, but the person who appeared in front of Lin Aoxue was Pei Qing, and Lin Aoxue was naturally suspicious. , Is Qin Nan'an's son like Yun Yan, because for some reason he couldn't be there in person, so he completed the meeting under the guise of others.

Pei Qing raised his head and glanced at Lin Aoxue, the corners of his lips twitched, revealing a hearty smile, he also kept his voice very low, and replied:

"Qin Nanan is my father."

Lin Aoxue stared at him, quite shocked.

Pei Qing knew what she was wondering, and said:

"When there was an accident at the Duke's Mansion, the Qin family was also secretly targeted. My father was worried that I would be implicated, so he adopted me to an ordinary farm family as his adopted son, and at the same time changed his name, which is the name I am today. Originally surnamed Qin, his name is Yueqing."

After hearing Pei Qing's explanation, Lin Aoxue suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Pei Qing did not follow his father's surname Qin, but changed his surname to Pei.

After Pei Qing explained this sentence, there was two more smiles in his eyes, looking at Lin Aoxue and said:

"I thought that Lin Pian and Miss Yun were just on good terms. I didn't expect it to be so good. It's no wonder that Lin Pian was angry with the crown yesterday."

Lin Aoxue had a look of embarrassment on her face. How could she know that it would be Pei Qing, so that she seemed to have all the handles in this person's hands. She shook her head helplessly and smiled bitterly:

"General Pei, stop laughing at me."

The smile on Pei Qing's face did not diminish, and he took two more bites of the side dishes, and then his face was straightened, and he said:

"How much did Miss Yun tell you about the meeting between the two of us?"

Lin Aoxue paused with the chopsticks in her hand, then continued to pick up the chopsticks and put the vegetables in the bowl:

"Yan'er only left a letter with me, and asked me to take the jade pendant to connect with Qin Nan'an's son, and he didn't say much."

Now that Pei Qing already knew that Lin Aoxue and Yunyan were close, Lin Aoxue didn't hide anything on purpose, and generously called Yunyan "Yan'er". Pei Qing didn't take it seriously. Hearing Lin Aoxue's answer, he pondered for a while, and then asked:

"Then do you know the golden key?"

Lin Aoxue nodded, but there was a hint of doubt in her heart. Since Yunyan had made arrangements earlier, how could she feel that Pei Qing didn't know that she had another golden key. Lin Aoxue blinked, but still didn't tell the fact that the second golden key was in her hands.

She lowered her head and thought for a while, and then suddenly realized.

She wanted to come to Yunyan because she had her own considerations. It wasn't that she didn't have the opportunity to tell Pei Qing about it, but because she didn't want to reveal Lin Aoxue's identity. Pei Qing was the son of Lin Aoxue's old department. To be on the safe side, Yun Yan did not mention this to Pei Qing.

The more in-depth understanding of Yunyan, the more painful and softer Lin Aoxue's heart was.

Yun Yan is as careful as a hair, and she is even more serious and considerate to pave the way for her. She is such a timid and cowardly person. Facing that hot and fiery sincerity, she thought about how to protect herself and how to escape. He also selfishly said that he wanted Yunyan to wait for his revenge to finish.

She felt like there was a ball of cotton stuck in her heart, and her breath was entangled with innumerable strands of grief.

Even though she was so ruthless, Yunyan was as gentle as ever. This friendship made her feel ashamed, like a needle pierced in her heart. The cold and sharp feeling was accompanied by the sour and unspeakable thoughts in her chest, which made her unable to help her eyes. redness.

If this time, she can bring Yan'er back, then they will get married.

She no longer wanted to let that hatred restrain their pace. It was precisely because she didn't know when the accident and change would occur that she should cherish the people who were still around.

She suddenly wanted to settle down and give Yunyan a hug that could see hope. At least, even if she was like duckweed, she wanted to give their hearts a home.

Thinking of this, she suddenly smiled, as if she had taken off a burden that made her exhausted. When Pei Qing looked up, she said:

"Yan'er once told me that there are three golden keys in the world, which were prepared by the Duke of Zhen Guo to prevent his own accident, and they were handed over to the people of his cronies. But I don't know, what important secrets are hidden behind this golden key?"

Pei Qing picked up the glass and took a sip. He was silent for a moment, as if mulling over his words, and then replied:

"It seems that Miss Yun has a lot of trust in Lin Pianjiang. Since that's the case, I won't treat you as an outsider, so let me tell you the truth. Originally, these three keys were a secret trick prepared by Duke Zhenguo to prevent accidents. Unexpectedly, the emperor The action was too fast, and Duke Zhen was unable to guard against it, and overnight, more than 100 people in the General's Mansion were stabbed to death, and the Mansion of Zhen Guo was burnt down, leaving no clues."

"After this matter was over, the emperor also secretly ordered an inventory of the number of corpses scorched by the fire in the mansion of Duke Zhenguo, and confirmed that there was no one alive in the mansion. After the accident in the mansion of Duke Zhenguo, my father and two other close friends left Duke Zhenguo at the same time. But in fact, they all felt that the incident at the Zhenguo Gongfu was too strange, so they turned from light to dark to investigate the truth of the incident at the Zhenguo Gongfu."

"In order to avoid the limelight, they all resigned and went into hiding, and they cut off contact with each other. They agreed to use the golden key given to them by the Zhenguo bus as a token, and every three years, they would send their cronies in midsummer beside Zhanyang Lake in Beijing. Gathering in the Golden Sparrow Tower, next year will be another third year."

"Because it's been more than ten years since the original incident, Beijing and China are not watching so closely. Since the last connection, the three parties with the golden key still have some connections with each other. However, there have been many changes this year, Miss Yun told me. I, Senior Sui Ming, who has another golden key in his hand, was captured by the prince of the sect, the current situation is unknown, and the golden key has also disappeared. As for the other party, there has been no movement yet."

As Pei Qing spoke, he paid attention to the changes around him. His voice was kept very low to make sure that it would not get out. Lin Aoxue listened intently. This part, Yunyan had also talked to her roughly before, although he did not Pei Qing said so in detail, but she also knew a general idea.

There was a look of doubt in her eyes, and she turned her head and asked:

"If that's the case, then why did this golden key fall into Yan'er's hands? You have been investigating secretly for more than ten years, what have you gained?"

Hearing this, Pei Qing smiled freely:

"Lin Pian, don't be in a hurry, this is a long story, please listen to me and you."

He paused, sorted out his thoughts, and continued:

"My father and three of his friends secretly investigated the accident at the town's palace. During this process, they discovered that another force was also investigating the original incident. Do you know where these people came from?"

Pei Qing deliberately sold off, Lin Aoxue frowned slightly, and looked puzzled:

"where?"

Pei Qing glanced around and let Lin Aoxue listen to her.

Lin Aoxue's eyes were even more puzzled, she leaned forward, and when she got closer, she heard Pei Qing whispering in her ear:

"It's from the Prince's Mansion."

Lin Aoxue was startled when she heard the words, and the green pea in her hand fell back into the plate. The shock on her face was hard to hide, but when Pei Qing tapped on the table lightly, Lin Aoxue suddenly came back to her senses. The light was dim, and he asked in a low voice:

"How could it be from the Prince Zong's Mansion? There was an accident in the Duke's Mansion, and the Prince Zong couldn't figure it out. How could they secretly investigate this matter?"

Pei Qing motioned to Lin Aoxue to calm down, then took the jug, filled Lin Aoxue with another glass, and explained at the same time:

"This wave of troops was not sent by the prince of the sect, but the Lord of Ling County!"

Beichen Ling!

Lin Aoxue suffocated, her expression sullen and silent. The thoughts in her mind moved quickly, thinking of the relationship between Yunyan and Beichenling, she vaguely felt a bit unusual, and then recalled her brief contact with Beichenling when she was in the capital during the Chinese New Year, and she couldn't help but wonder, could it be? What is the secret behind this incident that she did not know?

"Why did Beichenling participate in this matter?"

She couldn't help but ask the questions in her heart.

Pei Qing put a piece of beef into his mouth, swallowed two mouthfuls, and then replied:

"My father didn't understand it at first. We investigated what happened at the beginning, and we vaguely got a part of the truth. Most of the murderers who framed Duke Zhen Guogong were the princes. However, at this time, the county master intervened, and we were like enemies, secretly fighting each other. It also cleaned up a lot of people under the county master."

"Later we learned that it turned out that Bei Chenling had always been brooding about the murder of General Ning's family. The inkstone that found the secret letter was prepared by his father Bei Chenhe and given to General Ning's daughter through her hands. Ning Muxue, brought it back to the Zhenguo Gongfu, she felt guilty and blamed herself for many years, and secretly searched for evidence to return the Zhenguo Gongfu's innocence!"

The more Pei Qing said, the more shocked Lin Aoxue became. When he said this, Lin Aoxue was completely stunned, unable to speak for a while.

Could it be that she has been blaming Bei Chenling all the time?

Her face was pale, her lips were tightly pursed, her hands clenching the bamboo chopsticks trembled involuntarily, Pei Qing looked at her in surprise, a little surprised why Lin Aoxue's reaction to this matter was so intense.

Lin Aoxue quickly sensed Pei Qing's suspicious gaze, she suppressed the doubts deep in her heart, and asked:

"and then?"

Seeing her recovering quickly after a brief shock, Pei Qing did not hold on to her, but continued:

"Ling County Lord secretly provided us with help, shielding Beichenhe's eyes and ears for us, and after confirming that Beichenhe framed General Ning, she did not stay out of the matter, but continued to support our actions, intending to bring justice to Zhenguo! In exchange, my father handed the golden key to the Lord Ling, saying that although he trusts the Lord Ling, he will not help the Lord Ling get the other two keys, it depends on her own ability."

At this point, Lin Aoxue also had an answer in her heart, and with a long sigh, she answered:

"So, the informant on the side of Princess Ling is Yan'er."

She didn't know how Bei Chenling was in depth, but she knew better about Yunyan. It was Yunyan who was secretly working on this matter for Beichenling, so Lin Aoxue had to believe that this was the truth.

Therefore, the golden key that should have been in Qin Nan'an's hands came into Yunyan's hands. She knew everything in her chest, but she was invisible. Lin Aoxue's feelings for Yunyan were also very complicated. She admired and adored Yunyan. Every achievement that Yunyan had gained in this chaotic situation was hidden behind several times of this effort.

Come to think of it, Yunyan didn't mention to her what she and Bei Chenling did behind her back after knowing her identity. First, it was because Yunyan didn't know the hatred for Bei Chenling in Lin Aoxue's heart. Second, it was also because Lin Aoxue had not yet. The ability to bear these pressures, the more you know, the easier it is to get burned.

Pei Qing nodded:

"That's right, so I have been in contact with Miss Yun since the year before, and this is the first time that Miss Yun has not come in person."

Lin Aoxue gave a "uh" and glanced at Pei Qing with an inexplicable expression on her face.

Pei Qing was shocked by the resentment in Lin Aoxue's eyes. He was stunned for a moment, and then quickly realized that he took a chopstick and stuffed beef into Lin Aoxue's bowl, and snorted angrily:

"Don't you suspect that there is some unclear relationship between me and Miss Yun?"

Lin Aoxue's eyes flashed, and he glanced away again. Of course she wouldn't doubt Yunyan, but she just learned that over the past two years, Yunyan would secretly meet with Pei Qing every once in a while. Even though she rationally knew that the two of them were talking about business, she couldn't help but feel sour. Astringent, suffocating, unable to go up or down.

Xu Shi made a decision in her heart. From her point of view, Yunyan was already hers. Others looked at her and they were robbing her, not to mention that Pei Qing's contact with Yunyan was a fait accompli that she couldn't stop. In addition to making her annoyed, she directed her anger towards Pei Qing.

Pei Qing sneered and squinted at Lin Aoxue:

"You really have the heart of a villain! Besides, even if I have thoughts about Miss Yun, Miss Yun will not look down on me!"

When Lin Aoxue heard the words, she nodded solemnly and muttered:

"That's true."

Pei Qing was about to explode with anger, and almost jumped in place to fight with Lin Aoxue in the restaurant. He stomped the wine glass in his hand towards the table, gritted his teeth and said:

"Go back and settle this account with you. Let's talk business first."

When Pei Qing started talking, Lin Aoxue's face became solemn, and he stopped chatting and laughing with him. He sat upright and waited for Pei Qing's next words.

"A few days ago, my father heard news from Beijing that they organized people to go to the prince's house to rescue the senior Sui Ming, but the senior Sui Ming was severely punished and his legs were broken."

This news made Lin Aoxue's heart tighten, her face sullen, and a trace of guilt could not be contained in her heart.

If it wasn't for the sake of hiding her identity, Sui Ming would not have sacrificed herself and been captured by the clan prince. Although he saved his life in the clan prince's mansion, the blow of both legs was absolutely unbearable for ordinary people, not to mention Sui. Muku is also a highly accomplished martial artist.

Pei Qing glanced at Lin Aoxue and saw that he suddenly became silent. Thinking that this topic was a little heavy, he said again:

"My father learned from senior Sui Ming that Ning Muxue, the beloved daughter of Duke Zhen Guo, is still alive!"

If Lin Aoxue was surprised when she learned that Bei Chenling was secretly helping her father's old department to investigate the original matter, then at this moment, she was panicked. Her face turned pale, and she didn't know how to reply to Pei Qing's words. After a moment of hesitation, she frowned and asked:

"Senior Sui Ming, can you tell me where is Ning Muxue?"

Pei Qing shook his head when he heard the words:

"No, senior Sui Ming only said that the woman was alive, but he didn't reveal any further information. I think there are some unavoidable reasons."

"Then he was under severe punishment and confessed this matter to the prince?"

Lin Aoxue asked again:

Pei Qing looked serious and answered seriously:

"Senior Sui Ming is stubborn, even though Bei Chenhe lost his legs, he didn't disclose the news at all."

Lin Aoxue breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Sui Ming didn't tell her about her, at least before she returned to Beijing, Bei Chenhe wouldn't suspect her, and she still had time to deal with it. Now that Pei Qing brought this news to her, at least she made some preparations in her heart. The secret of her identity may not be hidden for a long time.

Then, she must have the power to deal with Beichenhe before her identity is revealed, otherwise, Beichenhe will not be able to tolerate her.

Lin Aoxue exhaled a turbid breath, rubbed his brows forcefully, and said:

"It's hard for Senior Sui Ming to bear this hardship."

In any case, at least she knew that she was not fighting alone. Behind her, her father's old ministries and Yunyan were all sheltering her and becoming her final belonging.

After that, Pei Qing and Lin Aoxue talked about some things in Beijing. When the dishes were all eaten, the two left Fuyun Village together, because they were friends on weekdays, and this time they went to Fuyun Village together. It doesn't seem strange to drink.

When Lin Aoxue returned to the barracks, she still felt in the fog, and more and more things were rolling towards her. She felt powerless to deal with the rush. Pei Qing patted her on the shoulder and invited her to go to the main tent to continue studying the military's defense. Lin Aoxue did not refuse, and walked towards the main tent with Pei Qing.

When the two of them opened the curtain and walked in, there was a sudden sound of hooves from outside the tent. Lin Aoxue and Pei Qing stopped at the same time, but when they saw a messenger coming on horseback, they rushed into the barracks shouting "Urgent News". Finally, he stopped in front of Pei Qing and Lin Aoxue.

Because the messenger was in a hurry, he kept breathing heavily, and his face was flushed. He turned over and dismounted, walked quickly to Pei Qing and Lin Aoxue, knelt down on one knee with a plop, took out a roll of military orders from his arms, and with both hands Raising the top of his head, he respectfully handed it to Pei Qing, saying:

"General Pei! General Lin! General has an urgent order!"

Pei Qing looked hesitant, and Lin Aoxue frowned. There have been a lot of strange things recently. Bei Chenlong was recovering from his injuries in Yiping, why did he suddenly give an urgent order?

"Let's open it first."

Lin Aoxue raised her chin towards Pei Qing and motioned Pei Qing to read what was written in the military order first. Pei Qing nodded and slowly unfolded the roll of military orders.

"what?!"

After a while, when Pei Qing saw the handwriting on the military order clearly, his face changed, and the hand holding the military order also trembled, his eyes showing a look of surprise. Seeing this, Lin Aoxue's face sank suddenly. Before she could ask, Pei Qing threw the military order at Lin Aoxue:

"look by youself."

Lin Aoxue took this thing suspiciously, the handwriting caught in his eyes, and he was suddenly inexplicable.

"Send troops to attack the barbarians in the grasslands?"

Bei Chenlong wrote on this military order that he ordered Lin Aoxue as the main general, leading 150,000 troops, and sent troops to the grasslands to go deep into the barbarian hinterland to attack the barbarians.

Lin Aoxue's heart skipped a beat, and she carefully checked the military order several times. She was sure that it was written by Bei Chenlong herself. She gritted her teeth, and her heart was pounding.

Xuanhe moves too fast!

Yesterday, he told Lin Aoxue about the barbarians secretly communicating with Beichen to congratulate the barbarians, and they wanted to use Beichen's troops to quell the civil unrest of the barbarians. Today, the military order was issued to Lin Aoxue. With such efficiency, Lin Aoxue's back was chilled, and at the same time, he also realized that it was extremely crucial. One point, there must be an unusual change in Beijing, otherwise Bei Chenhe would not be so anxious!
