Chapter 23 Lord, there is a question mark in your head

After Young Master Cang Yue stepped down from the carriage, the air seemed to be stagnant. Two expressionless cavalrymen dismounted their horses neatly and formed a formation. They had copper-pointed knives on their waists, and the copper plates on their armor reflected the breathtaking light in their movements.

It was rare for rural peasants to encounter such a formidable and cold-faced army. The cold and burly armor and the gleaming cold weapons naturally frightened each and every one of them to the point where their hands and feet became weak.

Chen Jia took a look around the Wujia Fort that was blackened and collapsed by the fire, and nervously glanced at Chen Bo not far away. His joy faded as he thought about it, and he became hoarse, knowing that it was too late to save him and things were in a mess.

!

So he turned the tide and ignored his old master, and knelt down with a plop towards the young master Cang Yue, sticking his butt out and burying his head deeply between his legs. The flattery of his prostrate surrender made the gentleman's character completely ruined.

Of course, Chen Jia was not the only one to take such a posture. The other servants who accompanied him also knelt down humbly in the same manner as nobles.

Status, class, things that were only imagined in the past, were manifested so vividly in front of Chen Baiqi for the first time.

But she couldn't understand that several hours had passed since the fire started last night and this morning. Anyone who knew a little about military strategy would know that this gap in the night was enough for these rioting tenants to escape several times. According to the arrogance of nobles, it must be

It didn't take much effort, but he followed Chen Jia's advice and rushed to Wubao to rescue him, which was really rare.

Could it be...there's something else going on?

She paused for a moment, her mind wandering to her thoughts, and her face retained a bit of calmness. Unintentionally, she lost some of the coquettishness that her facial features had kneaded into, and gained a bit more of the courage to arrogantly kill the Marquis of Ten Thousand Households.

A strong wind blew from the west, and the black dust on the ground was blown up. The thin ash was like gray snow, and the background was almost immersed in a gray-black light gradient.

, she and her father were at ease, walking steadily and slowly.

The eyes of the troops lined up in front of the tower gate all fell on Chen Baiqi. Their eyes were as bright as the top of an invisible mountain.

Behind her, Zayi was lying, leaning, or writhing in pain in the ruins of Wubao. At this time, everyone who could stand stood up sporadically, mustering up the courage and strength to slowly drag their bodies and gather behind her. They could not be neglected.

, not to be rude, we all rushed to the gate of the tower to greet him.

At first, I was nervous and panicked, but along the way, the atmosphere was so quiet that my pores stood up. I didn't dare to look around. In my narrow sight, the only one I could see was the leader. She stood tall and slender.

The bare bones of the back and the incompatible steady and slow steps seemed to give them support and strength invisibly, and they gradually became calmer.

Young Master Cang Yue turned her eyes sideways and saw the vermilion flickering through the air and sweeping over Wubao. Everyone was a little surprised, so they lowered their heads, and the Buddhist beads were lingering one by one on their fingertips. The texture of beeswax collided with each other.

There is a crisp and mellow sound.

It was clear just now that this sister-in-law was just as confused as the others, but in an instant she seemed to have a spirit of her own, with a lively look on her face, calm and unfazed, and even took on the role of a child on behalf of her father.

Even the group of people in Wubao were vaguely centered on her, which showed that this sister-in-law was a bit unusual.

In that room, Chen Baiqi's blind eyes had returned to normal and she could see things. She was getting closer, and suddenly she was stunned to find a question mark on the head of Young Master Cang Yue.

Ai?

She blinked her eyelashes, quietly but curiously checked the content of the question mark, and immediately a transparent system box that could not be seen by outsiders popped up in front of her eyes.

[Juyang has suffered from drought in recent years, and the Rong and Di bandits have been rampant and plundering recently. They have invaded and harassed the border cities and counties of Chu many times. Although we went to exterminate the bandits on this journey, we have invited people with lofty ideals to participate in the grand event, but there is only one missing person.

A man who knows the art of cunning formations is going to break the formation, so he needs to go to Dongyang Shengyang Lake to ask the mysterious hermit to come down from the mountain for help.】

Chen Bai stood up and stepped slightly, his expression stiff.

How good! She unexpectedly opened a cheat!

In this way, you can find out the lord's recent worries and worries in a timely manner, so to speak, you can do what he likes, share worries and solve problems, and then the master and servant have a deep love. Then it is no longer as difficult as heaven to gain the lord's favor and get the oath!

Because Chen Baiqi's mind was constantly thinking about how to capture the lord, he didn't notice that Chen's father's eyes were rolling, and he wanted to think about escaping. Unexpectedly, he kicked a piece of black charred wood that was tilted up with his toes, and pulled it out of her hand.

, he lost his balance, screamed in panic, and threw himself in the direction of Young Master Cang Yue.

The Cang Yue Army looked coldly and regarded him as an assassin when he rushed forward recklessly. They immediately rushed to block him from the left and right, and thrust forward their sharp swords and halberds, forming a row of sword walls.

Father Chen couldn't stop himself, his face turned pale, and he stabbed the tip of the knife, causing everyone around him to gasp.

Chen Baiqi woke up when Chen's father was confused again. He wanted to teach him a lesson, but when he saw him being stabbed into a hedgehog by someone's sword relatively quickly, his face was startled, and he walked as if he was leaping through the clouds.

.

Her body seemed to be very fast, which was all due to the strengthening of her body by Qilin blood. At this moment, she flashed in front of everyone like a white stream of light. She had already grabbed Chen's heavy body and pushed her back. However, she could not control the momentum and staggered.

After a few steps, she turned her head and raised her neck slightly, and a sharp tip had already touched the delicate white skin of her neck.

"Jiaojiaoer——" Father Chen stabilized his figure for a moment, then rushed forward, holding her in his arms and looking up and down. He was so shocked that three souls disappeared and six souls disappeared.

Chen Baiqi pushed him away and looked away along the tip of the gun indifferently. He saw a heroic young man riding on horseback, holding a majestic silver gun and looking down at her.

His body is covered with silver armor and built with dragon scales, his hair is tied with a golden crown and a pheasant tail, his silver spear shines brightly in the autumn water, and his slender and heroic body is full of strength.

"You've overstepped your bounds and you're still not backing down!" The young man frowned and shouted in a flat voice.

Behind the horse of an at least young general, a smiling middle-aged man in a Confucian robe and a wide robe walked out. His long beard brushed his face, his eyes were hidden in the world, his expression was elegant and graceful, he gently shook the jade bamboo slip in his hand,

Chao Chen Baiqi smiled helplessly and said: "Xun Zhai, the other party is a beautiful and weak sister-in-law. It is quite respectable to save my father's integrity and filial piety. It was just an accident just now. Why do you want to go to war and never stop?"

Chen Baiqi moved her eyes to the middle-aged man, squinting her eyelashes slightly. They were marked by the system, so she knew that these two men were the two chief generals Xun Zhai and counselor Sun Yang of Prince Cang Yue, one civil and one military.

Sun Yang stared at Chen Baiqi with some scrutiny. The speed and movement skills of this young lady just now seemed a bit like Lian Jiazi's posture, which was why Xun Zhai was tempted to test him.

It could be seen that Xun Zhai respected Sun Yang, so he was persuaded by his words, so he put away his gun and dismounted, and together with Sun Yang, he stood quietly behind the young master Cang Yue. The cavalry no longer kept a tight vigil and withdrew to a passage.

.

"Father, your lungs were injured by the poisonous smoke last night. It is not appropriate to speak too much. Please let your daughter report any inquiries you may have." Ignoring the two men, she stroked the remaining coolness of the ice on her neck and said to her.

A gentle voice from the side asked for instructions.

Father Chen was stunned, overjoyed, and nodded vigorously in silence - he had taken the hint, it hurt his lungs, and he didn't dare to say anything anymore.

Chen Baiqi gave him a look that said don't make trouble any more, then his eyes turned around Chen Jia and others, hiding the coldness in his eyes, he bowed his head and bowed in the direction of Young Master Cang Yue.

"Chen San has met the noble man."

Although Chu Cangyue was a young master, he had no official position, while Chen Baiqi's father, although unreliable, was known as a meritorious official. Therefore, in exchange for one thing, he was allowed to refrain from kneeling down and worshiping.

Young Master Cang Yue glanced at Chen Bo, who was trying to shrink himself into a ball, teasing Yaoyao in his eyes, and then turned his gaze back to Chen Baiqi.

"The sun is shining brightly, Chen San, why do you keep lowering your head to watch the movie?"

He stared at the dark top of her head, raised the corners of his mouth, the smile did not reach his eyes, and asked nonchalantly while twisting his beads.

I thought he would be unwilling to talk to her or show her off coldly. After all, his favorability score was negative, and Chen Bo had just made a fool of himself, but he did not manipulate her because of his identity. Instead, he joked "amiably", which was beyond her expectation.

Chen Baiqi heard his voice for the first time. His voice was as flawless as his appearance, interlocking like jade. It was different from the rude and deep voice of ordinary men. It had the unique southerly characteristics of the nobles of Chu State, but it was very pleasant to the ears.

She lowered her head and said honestly: "Chen San is so humble. He dare not insult the eyes of noble people and be buried in secret."

He just glanced at her casually before, and his favorability level was directly reduced. How could she let him hurt his eyes again?

Young Master Cang Yue was silent for a moment, and his doubts were resolved with a somewhat strange meaning.

There seems to be something in her words...

------Digression-----

Let’s talk about the young general Xun Zhai here. He would attack the heroine just to test her. During the Warring States Period, very few girls studied martial arts. In addition to being specially trained to be assassins, they were so-called assassins. He suspected that she might be an assassin, so he took action.

But as soon as he took action, it became clear that she was not an assassin, because the heroine did not understand force, but was much more dexterous. At this time, the clever Sun Yang came out to smooth things over.

At present, it seems that the two colleagues who are colleagues of the protagonist are not getting along well~~
