Under the moonlight, Lingluo was holding the military map that Yun Chen had presented during the day. It was written in detail, but unfortunately, most of it was fake.
At this moment, the two black-clothed men standing in the hall were listing out Yun Chen's words and actions after he entered the Shen family's territory without missing a single word.
If Yun Chen was here, he would not have been as calm and composed as he was during the day, and he would have disguised himself as a good man who was determined to avenge his sister.
"Yun Chen and that woman from the Red Magnolia Sect had a poem match?”
"Yes, it should be a coincidence. That woman is a famous courtesan of Hong Yulan. She has some talent, so the two should not know each other.”The black-clothed man was stunned. He did not know why his lord would mention this, but he immediately replied.
"But now I recall the music of Jiangnan, when I was young and thin in spring. Riding on a horse, leaning against a slanted bridge, the house of red sleeves is full of buildings.
The green screen and gold bend, drunk into the flowers to sleep. This time I saw the flowers, white hair vowed not to return.”
Ling Luo recited this poem and seemed to have thought of something. She laughed and said," Good poem.”
She wondered if Yun Chen had thought about his sister, Xi Yunshi, Yun Ling, who had yet to pass her three-month mourning period when he flirted with the woman with this poem.
It was true that aristocratic families were romantic and talented, but how could Lingluo believe that a person who didn't care about his own sister in the details would have a deep relationship with her sister?
After the man in black retreated, Ji Ze, who had been listening at the side, said," You suspect that he's a spy from an aristocratic family.”
Lingluo shook her head." It's not that I doubt him. I never believed him the moment he came in. A young man who hates his sister's death every day should not be so calm. He was too calm and did not have the impatience of a young man. Also, he came alone and was still wearing a brocade dress. Where did he get the money and the mood to take care of himself?"”
"Young people are naturally prone to mistakes.”Ji Ze said.
"Unfortunately, if you're wrong, there's no chance to turn back.”A trace of coldness flashed across Luo Luo's eyes.
Ji Ze knew that Lingluo would probably not let Yunchen leave this place alive. She would only use up his remaining value. In fact, the aristocratic families had made the right move. They sacrificed a direct descendant of an aristocratic family and made up such a clever lie about revenge that people could not help but believe it. Moreover, they had presented the half-true military strategy map of the aristocratic families.
Even if Shen Lingluo had a trace of soft-heartedness and was anxious, she would have fallen down accidentally. Even if she did not die, she would have lost a layer of skin.
"You plan to use him?" Ji Ze asked.
"Why not? The aristocratic families had sent such useful chess pieces.”Lingluo raised her eyebrows.
The young man was arrogant and wanted to make a name for himself. She had to see if she would give him the chance.
"Don't you know how to read physiognomy? How was it? What did you see in his face?”Lingluo said with a hint of mockery.
Ji Ze smiled faintly." I can see it, but it's an early death."”
Yun Chen did not know his intentions. The other party had already figured out his background. He was leisurely walking around the Shen family's camp, secretly noting down every place he saw.
Very few people knew about the training of the Shen family's army and along the way, he had many doubts in his heart. Although the Shen family's army was disciplined and well-trained, there were many places that made him feel strange.
Could this be the Shen family's army's secret training method?
Yun Chen wanted to ask others, but he either did not talk to a stranger like him or avoided the topic with a few words. Yun Chen couldn't help but feel a little anxious. Other than handing over the fake military map to Shen Lingluo to gain her trust, he also had to find out the secrets of the Shen family's army and spread the news.
There had always been rumors that Shen Lingluo was so confident in her success because she still needed other secret weapons. However, what exactly was it that was hidden so well? They only knew that she was the one who ordered the Shen family's craftsmen to research it.
Other than researching money-making trees like glass and cement, what else could they research and produce?
Actually, Yun Chen did not think much of it. Glass and cement were only things that could make money. The battlefield relied on elite soldiers and valiant generals. Could it be that Shen Lingluo's secret was a hundred thousand soldiers?
Even if he racked his brain, he would never have thought that the thing that Shen Lingluo was hiding was something more terrifying than a hundred thousand soldiers. When that time came, the battlefield would no longer rely on manpower alone, but on weapons to win. That would be a brand new era.
The aristocratic families had provided a large amount of weapons and food to the Yuan family. Now that they were on the same boat, it was naturally Yuan Furong and the aristocratic families.
Madam Yun was worried about her son who was in the enemy camp. She asked her husband," Will Little Chen be alright?"”
The head of the Yun family frowned." Ignorant woman, what do you know? Chen 'er is making contributions and bringing our Yun family to a higher level.”
Madam Yun did not say anything else. She knew that her husband did not care about Chen 'er's life at all. He only cared about the Yun family's honor and disgrace. For the Yun family to become a subordinate of the Xi family, sacrificing a legitimate son was nothing. After all, his daughter had already been sacrificed.
After the meeting between the Yuan family and the aristocratic families ended, the head of the Yuan family, Yuan Chun, asked Xi Feng to stay. He called out in an especially friendly tone," Good son-in-law."”
Xi Feng frowned slightly, but he hid it well. He said gently," Marquis Yuan."”
"Virtuous son-in-law doesn't need to care about these customs. You and I will be sons-in-law sooner or later. When I ascend to the throne, you will be the son-in-law.”Yuan Chun laughed heartily and said," It's all thanks to your plan this time. It's really wonderful.”
Who would have thought that this was Xi Feng's plan to let his brother-in-law gain the trust of the Shen family's head, Shen Lingluo, through revenge?
Xi Feng was a little impatient. Due to his identity as Yuan Chun, he chatted with her for a long time. When Yuan Chun was done talking, he seemed to have thought of something and patted Xi Feng's shoulder." Yingying has been thinking about you these past few days. It's rare for you to come over. Let's go and see her."”
Yingying was Yuan Chun's beloved daughter, Yuan Yingying, who was about to marry Xi Feng.
Xi Feng was about to refuse, but he met the other party's gaze that could not be rejected. He could only cupped his hands and say helplessly," I'll go now."”
After passing through the corridors and pavilions, Xi Feng saw a beautiful girl in a light yellow dress flapping her pink butterfly beside a maid from afar.
In a trance, Xi Feng thought of the beautiful woman he had hidden deep in his heart. She lowered her head to embroider and raised her head to call him 'husband' gently.'
The battle was about to break out, the Shen family and Yuan clan started fighting in Changye. The Shen family army was unexpectedly strong and valiant, forcing the Yuan clan army to retreat. What was worse was that the Yuan clan army fell into the Shen family army's traps almost at any time, losing one battle after another.
This was also the first time Shen Lingluo's talent in military affairs was revealed to the world and the enemy.
The news of consecutive defeats came one after another. Xi Feng stared at the strategy map in front of him in disbelief." How is this possible? Why didn't she fall for it?" On the contrary, he even set traps for the Yuan army, dragging them into a quicksand-like slaughter.
" It must be the Yun family's son who betrayed us," a general said as he panted with red eyes. He was eager to find someone to shirk responsibility and focus his hatred on.
" Impossible, my son would never betray us," the Yun Family Head argued.
The accounts were quarreling endlessly because of the repeated defeats, while Xi Feng was still staring intently at the military strategy map, holding the pen and trying to find a chance to salvage the situation on paper.
"Report, Linxun has fallen."
The pen in Xi Feng's hand fell to the ground and was stained with mud.
At the same time, there was another person in the Shen family's military camp who couldn't believe it, and that was Yun Chen.
"How did this happen? Shouldn't be? The Yuan Family shouldn't lose." Yun Chen was so excited by the successive reports that he forgot to pretend.
In his imagination, the traitor should have been eliminated, and he would become famous and admired as a young genius.
Only when he was escorted into the tent did he realize that Shen Lingluo had seen through him.
Unfortunately, the dust had already settled.
"How did you find out that I faked my vote?”Yun Chen had already calmed down. He wanted an answer.
"Then tell me how Yun Ling died?”Lingluo asked with interest. She liked to exchange things for things.
Yun Chen was a little hesitant. His eagerness to know how he had failed overwhelmed everything." The Yun family has a rule that no abandoned daughter is allowed. Mother personally brewed the medicine. After talking to sister, she advised her to drink it.”
She was right. Lingluo narrowed her eyes and couldn't help but laugh." Your mother brewed the medicine, and your sister drank it herself. Ha, if this gets out, it'll be the biggest joke in the world.”
"What are you talking about? How can you insult my mother and sister's reputation?”Yun Chen suddenly felt strangely angry.
" My sister is virtuous and virtuous. She is highly praised by everyone. She chose to separate for her children and her husband, and she died for the reputation of the Yun family. My sister is the model of all women in the world. She lived a beautiful life and died with honor. You are a traitor. How can you understand my sister's greatness?”
Yun Chen said arrogantly. He held his head high as a member of an aristocratic family.
"What a good example." Lingluo sneered," Unfortunately, you're wrong. A woman's life is not as cheap as you think. It's her duty to protect the family's reputation and children, but she doesn't need to exchange her life for it.”
Lingluo suddenly felt a little bored and did not want to continue talking to people like Yun Chen. She waved her hand and said indifferently," I want her husband and brother to accompany her. I think Yun Ling should be happy. Take them away."”
"You still dare to say that you are?" Yun Chen wanted to say something else, but he was quickly gagged by the soldiers. His hands and feet were tied up and he was taken away and locked in the dungeon.
At the entrance of the Yuan family's residence, a few large carriages were parked at the side. The servants were hurriedly loading and packing clothes and food.
"Feng 'er, let's go." Xi Feng's father urged his son in the carriage.
"Husband, don't leave me." Yuan Yingying's hairpins were scattered all over the place. The cold and beautiful Yuan Yingying tugged at Xi Feng as she sobbed. The few maids behind her were also at a loss.
She had never thought that just a few days after they got married, there would be news of her father's death in battle. Her mother had also fallen ill. Now, even her husband, who she loved, was going to abandon her?
Xi Feng's father was furious." You vulgar woman, don't drag my son down."”She turned to Xi Feng and said," Son, she's Yuan Chun's daughter. We can't take her away.”
The Yuan family could be defeated, but the Xi family could not die with them. They were just in-laws and could be abandoned at any time.
Xi Feng looked at the woman who had been rude and rude to him in the past but was now begging him bitterly. Pleasure flashed in his eyes as he shook Yuan Yingying's hand off with a cold expression and strode into the carriage.
"Xi Feng, you vile person, you'll die a horrible death!”The carriage drove away, leaving behind the woman who was crying resentfully in the dust.
