The General Said She Didn’t Take a Wife
Chapter 104: Ambush · Down
Not long after Lin Aoxue left, the doctor from the palace rushed over to take Bei Chenling's pulse. Bei Chenhe paced back and forth beside Bei Chenling, trying again to persuade Bei Chenling to marry Lin Aoxue:
"Look, if it wasn't for General Lin this time, wouldn't you be planted here? What's wrong with marrying General Lin?"
Bei Chenling didn't listen to him, he just said:
"General Lin is good, but he doesn't like each other with his daughter, so don't worry about your father."
Beichenhe saw that Beichenling really didn't want to marry, so he just snorted and didn't mention it again.
After Lin Aoxue left the palace, she didn't go back to the general's residence directly. She took a detour and went to the Jinque Building again, and quietly jumped from the outside to the top attic of the Jinque Building, and glanced inward.
The traces in the private room have been cleaned up. The kidnapped second and the maid did not know where they went. Lin Aoxue hung the window frame and turned into the private room. The whole floor was silent. After walking around, I could smell the faint scent of incense.
Lin Aoxue carefully identified the source of the fragrance, and after searching in the building for a long time, she found a small piece of burnt-out incense on the beam of the roof. She picked up the remaining part of the incense and planned to turn it over to Bei Chenling to check it out.
She had just put away the incense, and suddenly felt a little strange, and when she looked closely, she saw a small insect in the gap between the beams.
That bug was weird, Lin Aoxue had never seen it before, she frowned slightly, recalling what Xue Renyi told her about the poisonous bugs involved in the Southern Border Gu technique, and in addition to the many strange things in the past few days, she subconsciously felt that this bug was Not related to this.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, her mind moved, and she tore off a piece of cloth from the hem of her clothes and caught the little poisonous insect with a layer of cloth. She wasn't sure if her guess was correct, but she shouldn't let go of the smallest details.
After catching the poisonous insects, Lin Aoxue heard noises from outside the house and knew that she couldn't stay here any longer. The man sent by He looked around and found nothing.
After Lin Aoxue returned to the general's mansion, she informed the housekeeper, and while it was still early, she went to the military camp outside the city to see the situation of the garrison.
The army came all the way from the northern border to the capital, and the boats and vehicles were exhausted. Many soldiers were unaccustomed to the weather and could not adapt to the humid climate of the capital. Lin Aoxue asked Xue Guan to invite a doctor to come over to diagnose and treat the lieutenant generals, and secretly told Xue Guan to let him He checked Pei Qing's whereabouts.
The next day, Lin Aoxue took the initiative to visit the palace. She heard that the housekeeper of the palace said that the county master had contracted the cold and was being nursed in the hospital. Lin Aoxue first went to visit Beichenhe. .
When Bei Chenling heard that Lin Aoxue came to see her on her own initiative, she let Lin Aoxue go into the room to talk. Lin Aoxue walked into Bei Chenling's bedroom, and saw Bei Chenling lying on the couch, her face flushed, and she coughed twice from time to time. It seemed that she was seriously ill.
Lin Aoxue didn't salute like before, she quickly walked to the bedside, reached out to probe the temperature on Bei Chenling's forehead, and said with a frown:
"You have a fever, have you seen the doctor?"
Bei Chenling nodded vigorously, and the little maid beside him said:
"The doctor has just left."
When Lin Aoxue saw Bei Chenling like this, I'm afraid she couldn't arrange to check anything. She frowned, and the little girl immediately raised a chair and put it on the side of the bed. Asking the maid to step back for a while, without waiting for Lin Aoxue to say anything, Bei Chenling coughed twice before asking:
"General Lin, cough, do you have something important to explain?"
Lin Aoxue shook his head and said:
"I'm just here to see you. You will take care of you well. The wind and cold in this winter are not good, and it is easy to cause diseases. Don't worry about the things outside these two days."
Bei Chenling took two breaths, then raised his hand and tapped lightly on the cabinet by the bedside. A black figure came in from the window and knelt on one knee in front of the bed. Lin Aoxue was a little surprised at first, and then listened to Bei Chenling. :
"He is a secret guard I trained in private, called Shen Ming. You come here in the past two days, and if you have anything, you will directly hand it over to him."
Lin Aoxue's eyes flickered slightly, Shen Guang glanced at Bei Chen Ling in a complicated way, and then took out the two things he found in Jinquelou yesterday, handed them over to Shen Ming, and said:
"These two are things I got before Beichen He when I revisited the Golden Sparrow Tower yesterday. This little piece of incense doesn't seem unusual. You should go and check its source. In addition, I have seen this poisonous insect. It's strange, I caught it just in case, you go and check whether this worm is related to witchcraft."
After Shen Ming took the order, he turned his head and bowed to Bei Chenling again, and was about to retreat, when Lin Aoxue suddenly called him again:
"In addition, you can investigate the second and the maid who were on duty in the Golden Sparrow Tower yesterday to see who betrayed the news."
Shen Ming nodded, turned to leave, Lin Aoxue sat beside the bed for a while, and the little girl's voice came from outside the house:
"Master, the medicine is ready."
"Bring the medicine in."
When Bei Chenling was ill, it was not advisable to speak loudly, so Lin Aoxue said a word for her, the maid brought the medicine bowl in after hearing the sound, she was going to feed Bei Chenling to drink the medicine, but she saw Lin Aoxue took the medicine bowl and put her hands on the side of the medicine bowl to try it. After testing the temperature, he waved her hand to let her down.
The maid glanced at Bei Chenling, and when she saw Bei Chenling nodded, she bowed and saluted and left.
Lin Aoxue first put the medicine bowl on the bedside cabinet, then helped Bei Chenling to get up, put a pillow behind her, then picked up the medicine bowl again, and scooped a spoonful and fed it to Bei Chenling's mouth.
Although Bei Chenling's face was flushed and her complexion was not very good, she still smiled at her with crooked eyebrows when she saw Lin Aoxue's move.
"What a smirk, hurry up and drink the medicine."
Lin Aoxue glared at her and said with a stern face.
"My sister Xiaoxue has a knife mouth and a tofu heart. After so many years, I'm still used to being nice to Ling'er."
Lin Aoxue didn't know how to reply, so she stuffed the medicine spoon into Bei Chenling's mouth, Bei Chenling opened her mouth subconsciously, and a mouthful of bitter medicine dripped into her mouth, causing her face to wrinkle with bitterness.
"This medicine is so hard to drink, just take two sips."
After finally swallowing the concoction, Bei Chenling looked at Lin Aoxue with teary eyes.
Lin Aoxue was unmoved, she scooped up another spoonful and sent it over:
"No, it must be finished."
Bei Chenling had no choice but to wait for Lin Aoxue to feed her the concoction one by one with a bitter face.
When the bowl of soup and medicine had bottomed out, Bei Chenling's face showed tiredness, Lin Aoxue put down the medicine bowl, helped Bei Chenling to lie down again, and then told her to take a good rest, then carefully tuck the quilt, and then turned around and left. .
Lin Aoxue stayed in Beijing for two days, but Bei Chenhe didn't tell her to go back to the North, so she had to stay in Beijing for the time being. The things she handed over to Shen Ming for investigation had not come to fruition. Two days later, Lin Aoxue went to the military camp again. Lin Aoxue felt relieved that the generals and soldiers in the army were not acclimatized. Xue Guan reported to her that Pei Qing's whereabouts had been found. In a small building not far from the palace, the building should also be Beichen. under He's name.
After getting the news, Lin Aoxue went to the small courtyard where Sui Ming was located, and handed over the rescue of Pei Qing to Sui Ming to arrange. She lived in the general's mansion for the past few days, and the mansion was full of Bei Chenhe's eyeliner. Shi spread his fists and feet, and could only wait and see what happened.
While waiting for the news, Lin Aoxue went to the palace several times to visit Beichenling. Beichenling had followed the doctor's orders to take the medicine, so she got better quickly. When Lin Aoxue went again, Beichenling's spirit was much better.
The mysterious man who ambushed Beichenling that day was not caught by Beichenhe, but when Lin Aoxue visited Beichenling for the third time, Shen Minglai reported that he had found some information.
"The county master, General Lin, this incense is specially made. There are no incense shops in Beijing that sell it, so it is impossible to find the source. This poisonous insect has been carefully verified by the subordinates, and it is indeed an insect that grows in the southern border. We are in Beichen. No, with this idea, my subordinates asked friends who are practicing medicine to investigate the ingredients contained in this incense, and there are two precious spices in it, which are also produced in the southern border."
Lin Aoxue and Bei Chenling were stunned when they heard it. They were stunned for a moment, then looked at each other. Lin Aoxue frowned, a dim light flashed in her eyes, and she murmured doubtfully:
"So, the mysterious people who ambushed the county master that day came from the southern border? Are they related to the mysterious man under Bei Chenhe who can use witchcraft? What was their purpose and why did they ambush the county master? ?"
More and more questions made people dizzy. The long-standing questions were too late to be resolved, and more questions appeared immediately. Lin Aoxue felt quite a headache, and the situation became more and more chaotic, making people overwhelmed.
The expression on Bei Chenling's face was also solemn:
"Where did this group of mysterious people come from?"
Lin Aoxue shook her head, they didn't understand this issue for the time being, but they couldn't get rid of their relationship with Nanjiang, and it was confirmed from the side that the strength of Nanjiang in the capital was secretly stirring the wind and rain, I am afraid they wanted to take advantage of the emperor's critical illness, Bei Chenhe was about to usurp the power and wanted to make some secrets.
She turned her head to look at Shen Ming, and asked again:
"Who was the one who leaked the news that the princess came to Jinquelou that day, did you find out?"
Shen Ming heard the words, nodded and replied:
"When I returned to General Lin, my subordinates found out that the news was sold by the servant Yue Xiaoba who greeted the guests in front of the building that day. When the subordinates went to investigate, Yue Xiaoba had disappeared, and finally the subordinate was in Zhanyang. When his body was picked up from the lake, it should have been killed and thrown into the lake on the day of the incident, or the shopkeeper of a nearby shop saw a floating body in the lake, and his subordinates found Yue Xiaoba."
After listening to Shen Ming, Lin Aoxue and Bei Chenling showed wry smiles on their faces at the same time, and there were no clues. The group of people acted cautiously, except that Lin Aoxue went back in time to check on the same day, and was very careful to pick up the incense and poisonous insects from the beam. No clues remain.
Neither Lin Aoxue nor Bei Chenling could guess their real purpose. Lin Aoxue shook her head and motioned Shen Ming to step back first. Only then did she talk to Bei Chenling about Pei Qing. Lin Aoxue told Bei Chenling that she had handed over the rescue of Pei Qing to Sui Ming. , Bei Chenling nodded, and then said:
"Since this is the case, we should also start to investigate the personal maid of the Southern Border Enchantress."
Lin Aoxue nodded. She was also thinking about this matter in her heart. She had a vague hunch that these people from the southern border who suddenly appeared in the capital must have a secret. Their purpose is definitely not simple, but is it related to the situation in Beijing? , it is unknown.
"Besides that, I have one more thing."
Lin Aoxue frowned and suddenly opened her mouth, Bei Chenling glanced at her and said doubtfully:
"What's the matter?"
"We already have two golden keys in our hands, one belongs to Uncle Mong and the other belongs to Pei Qing. Where is the other golden key? Judging from the current situation, the emperor may not be able to delay. By the midsummer of this year, once a change occurs, our forces have not been unified, and I am afraid it will be difficult to stop Beichen He."
At the beginning, her father's arrangement could only be found if the three golden keys were brought together. Now, the old army was lurking in the capital, and it should be less than ten thousand people. Lin Aoxue only had twenty thousand soldiers and horses, and Bei Chenling had only 20,000 soldiers and horses. The number of dark guards is not much. The total number of people they can mobilize will not exceed 30,000.
And there are 100,000 forbidden troops in the capital, and 20,000 private soldiers in Beichenhe's palace. If there is trouble in the capital, Lin Aoxue's troops are outside the city, and they have to break the city gate first. Beichenhe doesn't even need to call the forbidden army. If you have enough troops, you can directly take over the palace.
Lin Aoxue has hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, but he is stranded at the border, useless, isn't it ridiculous?
Bei Chenling understood Lin Aoxue's concerns, she thought for a moment, and said to Lin Aoxue:
"You come to Beijing to report your work this time, and you should not be able to go back until the beginning of the spring. During this time, I will try to contact the last party to see if I can advance the appointment time."
Lin Aoxue nodded when she heard the words:
"So good."
After negotiating with Bei Chenling, Lin Aoxue got up and left the palace, and stayed in the general's residence for a few days. On weekdays, she did not go out, but went back and forth between the general's residence and the army station outside the city, and did not do anything else, unless Beichen He took the initiative to summon her, and the number of times she went to the palace gradually decreased.
Lin Aoxue came to the military camp again that day. Xue Guan reported to Lin Aoxue the situation in the army as usual, but this time, the heavy expression on Xue Guan's face made Lin Aoxue feel that something was wrong, so he asked:
"Do you still have something important to report?"
Xue Guan's shoulders trembled, and then he suddenly knelt down on one knee, and said to Lin Aoxue with a panicked expression:
"General, there is news from the north that Miss Yun is missing."
"what?!!"
Lin Aoxue's pupils shrank, and immediately stood up abruptly, and asked anxiously:
"How did he disappear? Did the third uncle send someone to look for it? When did it happen?"
Xue Guan's lips trembled, he knew how much Lin Aoxue cared about Yun Yan, and since he received this news, he thought of facing Lin Aoxue's angry appearance.
"If you go back to the general, including the time when the dark guards sent the letter, Miss Yun should have disappeared before the fifteenth day. The third uncle has already sent someone to look for it, but there is no news yet. I don't know if anyone has found it."
Lin Aoxue was extremely angry, and in panic, she grabbed Xue Guan by the collar, and scolded anxiously:
"Why didn't you tell me about such an important thing just now?!"
Although Xue Guan had seen a lot of life and death, he was a little younger after all. He was taken aback by Lin Aoxue's vicious aura. He immediately shivered in fear, and opened his mouth nervously:
"me……"
He "me" for a long time, but couldn't sort out his thoughts. He didn't dare to say that he was just afraid of Lin Aoxue's anger, and Xue Renyi had already sent someone to investigate this matter, and there would be results soon, so he thought subconsciously. It dragged on for a while, but facing Lin Aoxue, he was worried that if he dragged on for a while, the result would be even more miserable when Lin Aoxue found out. After hesitating, Lin Aoxue saw the clue.
Lin Aoxue knew that it wasn't Xue Guan's fault. He was just a passer of news. The most important thing was to investigate why Yun Yan disappeared and where he went.
Half a month ago, almost when she first arrived in the capital, Yun Yan disappeared so long ago, and she has only received the news now, this sense of powerlessness that is beyond her reach is driving her crazy.
After Lin Aoxue pushed Xue Guan away, she wanted to rush out and lead a horse directly back to the north, but when she walked to the door of the house and heard Xue Guan call "General!" from behind, she stopped again and clenched helplessly. He made a fist, turned around and walked back, pacing back and forth in the room.
She can't leave at this time, not to mention whether she can find Yunyan even if she rides a fast horse and rushes back to the north day and night, just her actions will attract Bei Chenhe's attention, and she will definitely be suspected, whether it is her The way to receive the news is still the relationship between Yunyan and her, and Bei Chenhe will reconsider it.
Once things develop into this, the current situation will only become more and more unfavorable. Not only will it be of no help in saving people, but it will also bring about more serious problems.
Lin Aoxue forced herself to calm down, and walked around the room several times in an anxious and painful manner. She suddenly thought of Shadow Guard and immediately asked Xue Guan:
"What about the Shadow Guard? Did the third uncle see the Shadow Guard in Miss Yun's medical clinic?"
Yingyi and others are Yunyan's confidants. Although Yingwu once "resurrected" because of witchcraft, he broke into Yunyan's hospital and injured Yunyan, but Yingwu was very loyal during his lifetime. If someone blatantly went to the hospital to kidnap him Yunyan, it is impossible not to alert Yingwei, with Yingwei's loyalty to Yunyan, even if they fight to the last breath, they will definitely prevent others from taking Yunyan away.
"Before the general left, he instructed the third uncle to consult with Miss Yun if he had any important matters. This time, the person sent by the third uncle to the medical center saw the injured Shadow Guard and was told that Miss Yun was killed in the middle of going out to see a doctor. He was robbed, and the shadow guard was injured in a fight with others, and after escaping back to the hospital, he was chased by others, and he stayed in the hospital to bring the news to the third uncle."
Xue Guan took a breath and continued:
"The third uncle sent people to look for it immediately, and at the same time contacted He Ming. The shadow guards who chased him left a secret note along the way. I think it won't take long, there will be news coming back, general, don't worry too much. "
The author has something to say: Well, how can you come to the capital without leaving the north, do you think? little cuties~
