chapter XXIX
She should have thought of it earlier! Even if he was afraid, he should not have avoided his gaze. Moreover, he looked hurried and his footsteps were messy. And... the direction he was heading towards... was the city gate!
Chen Lin pulled the person guarding the account. Take this to the city gate! No one is allowed to enter or leave the city gate!" Chen Lin held the token that Xuanyuan Che had given her previously. She did not care if this person could be trusted or not. She could not think too much now!
……
In the end, it was too late…
"Empress, how did you know there was a traitor?”The City Lord stood beside the training ground and Chen Lin. Even he had just learned that there was a spy in the army and was about to give the order to investigate when the Empress appeared and said that the spy had already left North City.
"I bumped into him when I came to look for you. I thought he was just a soldier, but later I felt that something was wrong. However, when she wanted to chase after him, he had already run away."Chen Lin looked extremely tired now. He didn't expect that even though he was in such a hurry, he still couldn't catch him.
"What is the identity of that person in the army?" Chen Lin looked in the direction of the northern city gate.
"Already a member." The City Lord also lowered his head.
"What news did he take away?" A member? The position was not small…
"The Emperor has left…and…the matter of the Empress taking over the military affairs…"
Chen Lin frowned. She wanted him to leave in a panic?
Chen Lin's voice became gloomy.
The City Lord looked at Chen Lin's expression again and again before finally saying,"Our army's original battle plan…"
Chen Lin almost lost her balance. They were probably going to attack the northern city ahead of time…The emperor had left, leaving only the empress here…The key was that the empress was still the princess of Singapore. For the Snow Dragon Kingdom, it was a pity that they couldn't capture Xuanyuan Che. However, it was fortunate that Xuanyuan Che left and Ouyang Wan was alive…Therefore, before Xuanyuan Che returned, the Snow Dragon Kingdom's soldiers would definitely launch an attack.
Chen Lin closed her eyes and stood in the cold wind, trembling. In the end, he was not strong enough in this world…
"Empress…"
" Empress…" The City Lord and Dark's worried voices sounded.
Chen Lin forced a smile. Let me be quiet for a moment. In two hours, all those who are qualified to participate will gather in the main tent. I think the City Lord will arrange it very well."
Chen Lin walked away alone, her back a little bleak. It had been a long time since she felt this kind of helplessness…It had really been a long time…
Sensing Dark's aura behind her, Chen Lin took a deep breath and said with difficulty,"Dark, don't follow me."
Dark hesitated for a moment, but chose to stay here obediently.
Chen Lin lowered her head and walked out of their sight step by step.
She had been forced to be strong in both her past and present lives. Why couldn't the heavens give her a stable and peaceful life? Ha! In her previous life, at least she had a group of friends who could accompany her in her madness. But here, that sense of powerlessness was so strong that it actually swallowed her whole…
Chen Lin felt the energy in her body decrease with every step she took. When she reached the Extreme Canthus Cliff, Chen Lin realized that she had walked so far. Xuanyuan Che had told her about this place when he brought her to the hot spring and had passed by it on the way back.
There were many cliffs in the north of the city, but only this Absolute Canthus Cliff could not be found. I can't find the end…Chen Lin suddenly sneered. What would happen if a person fell? What if she went down? Would he return to the modern world just like that? Back to the place where she belonged?
The fog at the bottom of the cliff was thick, and there was not a single blade of grass on the cliff, but it gave people a sense of reverence. As long as she took another step forward…However, Chen Lin was still Chen Lin. She was still unwilling to abandon her life…
Moreover…Chen Lin smiled bitterly. Moreover, she still had concerns…
The cold wind blew up the yellow sand and her long hair. The sand surrounded Chen Lin. Her dispirited little face had unknowingly revealed a strong smile again.
"Ah…" Chen Lin used all her strength to roar at the cliff, venting the madness in her heart, leaving behind a clear and clean head. She could not let anything in the outside world disturb her. This was the only way to think of a countermeasure as soon as possible. Since the Snow Dragon Kingdom could take away the battle plan, then they would compete in speed. If you were fast, then I must be faster!
Not far away, a black shadow looked at the small and delicate body. What kind of power did this body contain? How could you stand up so quickly? The eyes under the silver mask were filled with curiosity.
After venting her anger, Chen Lin left the cliff with a smile. It was just like many years ago, he was just fighting for himself. Those days had happened once. It would be the same if he walked again.
……
"Niangniang, the city lord said that if you have nothing else to do, you should hurry to the main tent. As soon as they entered the military camp, a soldier said to Chen Lin with a trembling voice. The empress had left an impact on him, leaving a shadow in his young heart…
"Yes. Got it. You may leave." Chen Lin said kindly. It seemed that she had gone too far. All the soldiers were so afraid when they saw her…
"Empress, everyone is here." The City Lord looked at Chen Lin, who walked in with a smile. As expected, he didn't see that the Empress was very good at calming herself down.
Chen Lin deliberately raised the corners of her mouth even higher."Now, I want to take a dangerous move. After I explain it, if everyone agrees, we will take action tonight.”
Looking around the tent, very good! At least no one would stand up to refute him before he even revealed his plan.
"There will be no moon tonight, so I want to sneak attack the enemy camp.”
"But Empress, we know Zhan Tian's strength very well! Even if it's a sneak attack, we might not succeed!”The deputy general who was punished last time couldn't help but stand up.
"Right, replace the original traitor.”Chen Lin once again pulled an irrelevant topic. The corners of everyone's mouths twitched. If not for the urgency of the war…they felt that they would kick her out of this main account in the next moment!
Chen Lin coughed dryly. Looking at their reactions, it was obvious that…they were very speechless towards her…
"Jean…Where were we? If not for their fierce gazes, she would not have forgotten what she had said…
"A sneak attack might not succeed." The City Lord at the side resisted the urge to break out in a cold sweat and said patiently. He felt that he would rather the Empress be a little dispirited. Now that she was like this…he felt sympathy for the three armies! At the same time, she was worried that something would happen…
"Oh, oh! I knew that the sneak attack would not succeed, so I asked you to sneak attack!”Chen Lin had an expression that said,"You guys are idiots." His face was full of disdain.
This time, the people below couldn't take it anymore. They knew that the sneak attack didn't succeed, yet they still went? Are you stupid?
"Isn't that sending the soldiers to their deaths?!”Director Han, who had just broken free from the joy of being promoted, took the lead to deny Chen Lin again.
"Yes, I am!"
"This won't do!"
Following that, voices of objection could be heard…
Chen Lin was extremely suspicious if she had a huge grudge with that Han fellow in her previous life! For example, killing his father, raping his mother, stealing his wife, or abandoning his little daughter…Why did this guy like to make things difficult for him? Thirty canes were not enough? Then find an excuse to hit him a few more times!
(Leader Han: …Don't be like this!) My butt still hurts!
"Can you let me finish?" Chen Lin slammed the table and stood up angrily! My throat has been suffering for the past two days…I wonder if there are any lozenges?
The people below instantly fell silent. In their hearts, the Empress was like a tiger…After the incident on the training ground last time, they were even more convinced! The Empress was scarier than a tiger…
Chen Lin narrowed her eyes. It seemed that her image…could not be changed, but this was good! Wasn't this intimidating?
"What I mean is to let people burn their tents. If it really doesn't work, then burn their rations or release their horses. In short, our current policy is to drag it out! The longer this dragged on, the greater the chance of victory!”Now, they could only wait for Xuanyuan Che's arrival…
" But…" Chen Lin suddenly widened her eyes. It was that Chief Han again…
Chen Lin swallowed hard! "You! Speak!" She gritted her teeth and spat out these two words, scaring General Han so much that he was trembling…The angry and fierce empress…She only felt that she would eat people…
"It's not possible for ordinary people to enter Zhan Tian's military camp, so…who can go?”
Chen Lin thought it was something and could not help but roll her eyes.”
The people below looked at each other. Who had the ability to do so?
Chen Lin suddenly said seriously,"Find Dark!"
"Empress? Are you looking for me?" Just as Chen Lin finished speaking, Dark spoke…
Chen Lin opened her mouth but closed it helplessly. If ghosts really existed in this world…then Dark must be related to them!
"Did you hear the plan just now?" Chen Lin deliberately lowered her voice. Could this Dark be by her side all the time? Why did he appear every time he shouted?
Dark nodded. He understood that she wanted him to go on this mission. "I understand now! I'll try my best to come back alive tonight!"
Chen Lin could not help but twitch the corners of her mouth…Why did she feel so cold when Dark was joking…
The others naturally had no objections. They knew Dark's identity. Since he was the Emperor's secret guard, he naturally had his own abilities, so they did not have to worry too much.
……
It was night, and as usual, the night was as cold as water and the wind was bone-chilling.
Chen Lin sat at the table in her tent. Actually, she wasn't sure if Dark would succeed. However, she could not show it in front of the other generals. At least, they would think that their battle was over! It was not certain death!
"Empress, don't worry. Dark's martial arts are so high, nothing will happen to him.”Lian 'er looked at Chen Lin's anxious expression and advised softly.
Chen Lin was still sitting in a daze. She knew that Lian 'er was also very worried. Even though she was still consoling herself. However, her trembling hands revealed her thoughts.
"Lian 'er, sit down and wait." Chen Lin looked at Lian 'er worriedly.
The two worried women just sat in the tent, staring at the curtain, not daring to blink. Even if he was worried for Dark, he was also afraid that this plan would not succeed. If this move was also different…then the consequences could be imagined.
The footsteps outside gradually approached. Chen Lin frowned and stared at the curtain. She did not even have the strength to raise her feet to prove it. There was no doubt that she was very nervous now.
The curtain was gradually pulled open, and Dark's pale face appeared in front of Chen Lin and Lian 'er.
"Dark!" Lian 'er quickly went forward to support the person who was about to fall.
"Help her to the bed!" Dark must have been badly injured! Chen Lin was very glad that she still knew what Ouyang Wan knew in the past.
Lian 'er held onto Dark and refused to move forward. It was against etiquette for any man to touch a woman's bed. Moreover, that woman was the Empress, and that man was the Emperor's secret guard…
"Hesitating at this time? Help her to the bed and let me take a look."
Lian 'er glanced at the pale Dark and finally gritted her teeth as she went to Chen Lin's bed. Dark was almost at his mercy. It could be seen that he was seriously injured! Chen Lin's tightly furrowed brows did not dissipate for a long time.
Chen Lin held Dark's hand and her eyes suddenly widened. Dark actually came back alive?
"Lian 'er, go get my acupuncture bag!”Dark's veins were all broken. If it wasn't for the fact that he had been using his internal energy to maintain it, Dark would have collapsed long ago.
Lian 'er naturally did not dare to delay and quickly flipped through Chen Lin's bag.
When she sealed Dark's acupoints, Chen Lin was already covered in sweat. With every needle, Chen Lin's heart turned colder because Dark's aura was getting weaker and weaker. There was no medicine here, so he could only rely on Dark to hold on.
After the acupuncture, Chen Lin looked at Lian 'er. Lian 'er looked at Dark's naked chest and was a little shy. Chen Lin teased,"What's wrong, Lian 'er? Have you taken a fancy to our Ming?"
Lian 'er blushed." Empress, don't talk nonsense! Dark was in such a state, and the Empress was still in the mood to joke!”
"Stay and take care of him. At the same time, improve your relationship with him! As long as he could get through tonight, he would be fine!”This Lian 'er had just fallen in love. If she did not tease her properly, Chen Lin would feel that she had suffered a loss!
"Then…Empress, where are you going?" Lian 'er blushed. She wanted to stay here again after hearing that Dark wanted to get through the night, but where was the Empress going?
