She had never been able to figure out these two brothers but Ye Mei subconsciously felt that these two people were trustworthy.
"No, I didn't." Li San shook his head and looked at Ye Mei in confusion." Why are you asking this?”
"No, I have to find him." Ye Mei got up from the bed but his footsteps staggered and he almost fell to the ground.
Li San quickly went forward to support him." I'll help you look for it. However, General Long seems to have gone out and hasn't returned for the past few days."”
" This….." Ye Mei's heart sank involuntarily. He sat upright on the bed, his brows creasing slightly, but he could not think of a solution.
Footsteps suddenly sounded beside the two of them. Zhao Yiming looked at Ye Mei with a dark expression." The general wants you to go over."”
Ye Mei cursed in his heart, but his expression did not change. He nodded his head and gave Li San some instructions before walking towards the commander's tent.
She knew very well that this trip would be disastrous. However, if he revealed what had happened that night, he might still have a chance of survival.
In the commander's tent…
Murong Yue's expression was ugly as he stared at the book in his hand. His eyes were gloomy. It was obvious that he was on the verge of rage.
As the place Ye Mei mentioned wasn't far, the hidden guards quickly found out.
As for the seriously ill father that Ye Mei mentioned, there was no such person at all. As for her filial son, Ye Mei, there was no way to verify it. The government did not even have his household registration. It was as if she had appeared out of thin air. This also made people suspect that Ye Mei was that spy.
Now, even if Murong Yue wanted to protect her, but in the face of reality, he could not do it. After all, this concerned the survival of the entire Great Yan Country.
If it was destroyed because of his compassion, Murong Yue would be the sinner of history. But when he looked into Ye Mei's eyes, he could not help but sink into it. There was always a voice controlling his thoughts, making him think that Ye Mei was innocent for no reason.
The skinny man stood proudly at the side. Clearly, he had expected this outcome. It was as if everything was within his expectations.
As for General Liu, he was expressionless as usual. A faint pressure was emitted from his body.
"General, I've brought him here." The soldier's voice sounded from outside the tent.
Murong Yue's eyes flashed with a bright light before returning to normal. He said indifferently,"Let her in."
"Yes."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Mei's figure slowly walked in from outside the commander's tent. Although he had changed into a clean set of clothes, he still looked like he was riddled with injuries. His footsteps were light as he stood in front of Murong Yue. When his eyes landed on his face, he was slightly stunned and a complicated emotion flashed in his eyes. However, she immediately returned to normal and bent down. The piercing pain stimulated her nerves.
Ye Mei gritted his teeth and knelt down forcefully. Another wave of pain assaulted every single nerve in his body. He endured the dizziness and whispered,""Greetings, General."
Murong Yue knew that her injuries weren't light and looked at Ye Mei with heartache. However, due to the large number of people around, he didn't overstep his status." Get up and talk."”
"General, now that Ye Mei's crime has been confirmed, I'm afraid you can't stop her anymore.”The skinny man opened his mouth and looked at Ye Mei with a smug look in his eyes. A disdainful smile appeared on his face.
Ye Mei's brows furrowed slightly. He felt that this smile was very familiar. It seemed that Ye Wan had the same attitude.
"Ye Mei, do you plead guilty?" He still refused to believe that this spy was her.
Ye Mei shook his head, his calm eyes showing no signs of panic. His red lips parted slightly as he said,""If you want to accuse someone, you have to have a reason. I'm sure some of you know the truth. No one will believe me even if I say too much. Since you think that the evidence is irrefutable, then kill me.”She simply didn't bother to explain and lazily raised her head to look at Murong Yue. Her arrogant eyes made his heart shake.
"Are you really confessing?" He gritted his teeth.
"I never said I wanted to confess." Ye Mei was stunned by his strange logic." If you think I'm guilty, I have nothing to say.”She shrugged her shoulders indifferently. It was not like she had never experienced death before.
"General, what are you hesitating for? This Ye Mei is clearly a spy." The skinny man quickly opened his mouth to fan the flames. He also vaguely felt that Murong Yue was intentionally protecting Ye Mei.
"Liu Jiang, what do you think?" Murong Yue opened his mouth and asked Liu Jiang who had not spoken.
"This humble servant will listen to the general's decision." He naturally wouldn't go and talk nonsense. With Murong Yue stepping out, Liu Jiang was also at ease.
"Then let's deal with it as before.”He waved his hand, as if he had used up all his strength to finish his words.
"General is wise." The skinny man hurriedly opened his mouth to bootlick. His flattering posture made people unable to help but want to stay away.
Ye Mei scoffed coldly and gave Murong Yue a meaningful look. Suddenly, he felt dizzy and fell straight to the ground.
"Ye Mei? What's wrong with you?" Murong Yue's anxious voice sounded," Call the military doctor!”He shouted loudly, and his heart inexplicably became nervous.
The word 'military doctor' made Ye Mei's nerves tighten. He bit his tongue hard, trying to hold back his consciousness.
He struggled to open his eyes, but he couldn't make a sound.
The military doctor rushed over and saw Murong Yue holding a thin and weak man with a nervous expression. He immediately froze on the spot and looked at the two of them meaningfully. His brows furrowed slightly as if he was guessing something.
"What are you waiting for? Quickly see what's wrong with him!" Murong Yue's shout pulled the military doctor back to his senses.
She sighed and walked over to Ye Mei's side, stretching out her hand to take her pulse.
"Eh?" The military doctor let out a soft sound of surprise and reached out to stroke his beard. A meaningful look flashed across his shrewd eyes. Turning his head, he saw Murong Yue's nervous look and immediately revealed a look of realization.
Carefully walking to Murong Yue's side, he bent down and whispered,"General, is this the woman you secretly brought into the military camp?”
"Hmm?" Murong Yue was stunned," What did you say?”
The military doctor chuckled and nodded with an understanding expression. "She lost too much blood and her body is weak.”
"What did you say before?”Murong Yue frowned and asked.
The military doctor's white beard twitched and his eyes darted around quickly. He pointed at Ye Mei in his arms and said," Is this the woman you brought back to the military camp?"”
This time, he didn't lower his voice. Everyone in the commander's tent heard him clearly.
Murong Yue, the skinny man, and Liu Jiang were all stunned, and they all turned their gazes to Ye Mei. Upon closer inspection, she really did look like a woman.
The military doctor was also stunned by their reactions. He paused and said,"She must be treated as soon as possible, or she will fall ill.”
Only then did Murong Yue come back to his senses. He tilted his head and looked at the military doctor," Follow me.”
After saying that, he carried Ye Mei and walked to the rest area at the back.
The skinny man and Liu Jiang looked at each other. The skinny man couldn't hold it in any longer and walked forward. However, he was stopped by Liu Jiang," Wait here."”
It felt like a century had passed before the military doctor finally walked out. He took out a floral handkerchief from his waist and wiped his sweat before letting out a long sigh of relief.
"How did it go?" The skinny man was even more nervous than Liu Jiang. He quickly walked over and asked.
The military doctor smiled calmly." There's no injury that can't be cured when I'm the one who does it.”
"Where is the general?" Liu Jiang asked.
"It's not convenient for an outsider like me to apply medicine for her inside.”He chuckled and looked at the two of them ambiguously. He raised his eyebrows." Is this our future princess consort?”
The two of them tacitly turned around and chose to remain silent.
"Did I say something wrong?" He was puzzled, but he shook his head and decided not to think about it.
Suddenly, the curtain of the commander's tent was slowly opened and Long Moqing walked in.
His eyes quickly swept across everyone present and his thin lips pursed slightly." Where's the Great General?”
"He's inside taking care of his future princess.”The military doctor smiled habitually and looked at Long Moqing with a knowing expression.
"Future Princess Consort?" Long Moqing whispered in confusion," Who is she?”
The three of them shook their heads at the same time and then turned their gazes in the direction of Murong Yue.
After a long time, Murong Yue walked out from inside. The shock in his eyes did not disappear for a long time. He had always thought that he was smart, but he did not expect to be deceived by a little girl who was still wet behind the ears for so long. And that iconic blue meridian on her body made her background even more confusing. Others might not know, but Murong Yue was clear that this was the unique beauty of the Ye family. Now that it appeared on her, it could only mean that she was a member of the Ye family.
Ye and Ye also sounded the same.
What made Murong Yue even more incredulous was that he actually wasn't angry at all. Instead, he had a feeling of joy.
The voice in his heart once again hinted to him that Ye Mei was not a spy. However, the truth was right in front of him, and he seemed powerless.
"She's fine now." Murong Yue opened his mouth and shifted his gaze to the military doctor," I don't think I need to teach you what to say and what not to say about today's matter, right?”
The military doctor nodded several times as if he was pounding garlic. His small eyes narrowed into slits." I understand, I understand.”After saying that, he chuckled and turned around to leave with the first aid kit.
"Shadow guard, bring her back to the prison. Also, investigate if there is a person called Ye Mei in the Ye family.”The Shadow Guard at the side nodded his head and very nimbly carried Ye Mei out.
"Don't let anyone mistreat her in prison.”Murong Yue warned.
The Shadow Guard nodded his head with an unchanging expression and carried Ye Mei out of the commander's tent.
Seeing this, Murong Yue turned his gaze to the others," I don't think I need to teach you today's matter, right?”He subconsciously wanted to protect Ye Mei, even he himself did not know why.
It was as if he could not help but fall into her eyes the moment they met. He did not know when this woman had become his calamity.
"General, are you going to let this go?" Liu Jiang looked at him with a dignified gaze, with a neither servile nor overbearing appearance.
"Her identity is a little special. We'll make a decision after the Shadow Guards investigate.”Murong Yue felt that things weren't that simple.
Hearing this, the skinny man's face immediately fell, but he couldn't say anything.
"All of you may leave. I have something to discuss with General Long.”Murong Yue waved his hand and sent the two away.
Long Moqing, who had been silent, finally spoke," That woman?”
"Let's get down to business." Murong Yue obviously didn't want him to ask and interrupted his words. He slowly sat on the chair,”
"Is she Ye Mei?" Long Moqing asked. It was obviously a question, but she was very sure.
Murong Yue was stunned for a moment and slightly nodded his head, following which his eyes revealed doubt," Why, you know very well?”
Long Moqing smiled, her gentle eyes seemed to be able to melt the ice." I guessed."”He took out a stack of papers from his waist and handed it to Murong Yue. "This is the information I collected on the enemy.”
"You already knew?" Murong Yue didn't even look at the documents, his eyes were fixed on Long Moqing, and an inexplicable atmosphere rose around them.
"Ah?" Long Moqing was obviously stunned by his reaction and laughed," This is not like you." Let's get down to business first. We'll talk about this later.”
Murong Yue frowned slightly and was about to speak when he heard a commotion outside. That sharp and mean voice, he knew who had come.
The two of them looked at each other and Murong Yue clearly saw the four words in Long Moqing's eyes.
She couldn't help but laugh bitterly. Before she could stand up, she saw a petite figure walk in.”
The woman was dressed in green silk, covered with a white muslin dress, and her hair was combed into a small bun. Her big eyes were very beautiful, but the faint hostility in her eyes destroyed the overall beauty. Her thin lips curled up slightly, but there was a hint of shyness in her smile. Looking at Murong Yue in front of her, she walked over very intimately and held his arm.
This was none other than the sixth young mistress of the constabulary, Ye Wan.
Long Moqing smiled at him gloatingly." You two go ahead."”After saying that, he turned around and left without looking back.
The corner of Murong Yue's mouth twitched slightly, and he calmed down after a long while. He pulled his arm away from Ye Wan's hand and restored his usual indifference," I wonder why Princess has come?”He opened his mouth, his tone faintly distant.
Ye Wan was obviously used to his indifference. She smiled nonchalantly." I heard that there were spies in the military camp, so I specially came over to take a look. I also came to see you."”Her voice was especially sweet, but it was so sweet that it made people feel sick. Not only did they not want to take a bite, but they also wanted to stay away from her.
"The spy has already been caught, so there's no need to trouble the princess. After all, this is the military camp, and it's best for a girl like you not to enter and leave as you please.”Murong Yue replied absentmindedly. Only the heavens knew how much he didn't want to see this Ye Wan.
However, Ye Wan didn't think that way. It was obviously a way to chase away the guest but when she understood it, it became another meaning. She turned her head with a smile and looked at Murong Yue shyly," You're concerned about me but my Profound Energy is so strong so there aren't many people here who are my match."”She said this sentence with a conceited look. Seeing Murong Yue remain silent, she took a step closer to him," Let me tell you some good news."”
Murong Yue smiled indifferently and very naturally took a step back," What good news?”
Ye Wan's face couldn't help but turn red. She lowered her head and whispered,""The emperor wants to betroth me to one of the princes and even said that you are his most satisfied son.”Speaking up to this point, the meaning of her words was already very clear. Perhaps it was because she was shy, but she actually buried her head even deeper, her back facing Murong Yue.
"The dragon has nine sons. I wonder if the princess will be my sister-in-law or my sister-in-law in the future.”Murong Yue said indifferently, a faint smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.
As soon as she said that, Ye Wan immediately raised her head and turned around to look straight at Murong Yue. After a while, she suddenly smiled sweetly and said in a greasy voice,"I have the same opinion as the emperor.”
Obviously, she meant that she was most satisfied with Murong Yue, which meant that this husband was definitely him.
"That's good. I didn't let down my father's painstaking efforts.”Murong Yue nodded and had a thoughtful look," When you get married, don't forget to invite me to drink a cup of wine."”
Murong Yue was not a fool and naturally understood the meaning behind her words. It was just that this woman had always been unruly and willful, and would do anything to achieve her goals. If he rejected her face to face or embarrassed her, then he would definitely be the one at a disadvantage. She might as well play dumb. Even if Ye Wan wanted to get angry, she had no reason to do so.
"You really don't understand what I mean. You're still playing dumb with me.”Ye Wan glared at him, her unruly nature about to reveal itself.
"Princess sure knows how to joke." Murong Yue was still indifferent," If Princess has nothing else to say, then please excuse me. There are still many things waiting for me to deal with in the military camp.”He didn't want to stay by this she-devil's side for another minute.
Marry her? What a joke. A pair of bright eyes suddenly appeared in Murong Yue's mind, overlapping with Ye Mei's eyes. His heartbeat suddenly stopped and he stood rooted to the spot. An unprecedented throbbing slowly sprouted in his heart.
"Brother Yue, what's wrong?" Ye Wan waved her hand nervously in front of his eyes. However, there was a look of delight in her eyes." I knew it. You were pretending to be stupid previously.”
She muttered to herself and couldn't help but reach out to hug Murong Yue's waist. Obviously, Ye Wan thought that he was too excited to move.
However, it was this hug that pulled Murong Yue back from his daze. His body suddenly froze as if he had fallen into a cold cellar, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to break free. However, Ye Wan was already prepared and hugged him tightly.
"Men and women shouldn't touch each other.”Murong Yue opened his mouth, his icy cold voice piercing through Ye Wan's eardrums. She stretched out her hand and struggled hard, only then did she break free from her demonic claws.
He smiled at her." I still have something on, so I'll take my leave first."”Without waiting for Ye Wan's reply, he turned around and walked out of the commander's tent.# Cancel all reviews: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 54PM #
