Chapter 425 Are you in a bad mood?
Bai Yi walked away and turned back to see the young general still leaning against the window, wondering what he was thinking.
It's true that he's the young general's man now, but he's first and foremost his majesty's secret guard. Following General Duan is to protect his safety and to secretly eliminate the traitor.
His Majesty has issued a secret order that if there is a traitor, he must be eliminated immediately.
By evening, the rain had not stopped, so we had no choice but to continue on our journey wearing a straw raincoat.
At the main camp, Luo Zhen was still awake.
A few days ago, he went to see the auxiliary doctors, and one of them handed him a note.
When he came back and opened it, there were only four words on it.
"Avert danger."
After years of tacit understanding, he instantly understood who the message came from.
This group of auxiliary doctors graduated from the Women's School. He knew all about the connection between the Women's School and the Marquis' Mansion. However, the Women's School only arrived in Mu's City yesterday. How come there was news about Kang Ge'er so soon?
Without waiting for him to think, General Qin called him over.
From his mouth, Kang Ge'er was attacked and killed?! He was unable to react for a moment.
Only he and General Qin in front of him knew what happened to Kang Ge'er in Mo Sheng.
Whenever there is any news, he will contact me and General Qin.
It has been nearly half a month since he last sent a message. He said he had already set out on his journey back, so he should have arrived a long time ago.
Even though he had received the news in advance, Luo Zhen was still shocked.
He began to have doubts in his heart. Why, when he received the news that Kang Ge'er had escaped danger, General Qin told him that Kang Ge'er had died?
The sadness in General Qin's eyes did not seem fake. He had fought for many years and he most admired young men like Luo Zhen and Duan Chengkang who were brave and resourceful.
"My deputy commander received news that just seven days ago, Cheng Kang was ambushed and killed by an arrow in Mu's city."
"how come?!"
Luo Zhen couldn't believe it, "Can you see someone else?"
General Qin shook his head sadly, "Those guys put poison on the arrows."
Luo Zhen took two steps back, then his eyes turned red and he shouted angrily.
"I want to see him alive or dead. I won't believe it until I see him."
Then he ran out.
General Liu Qin was alone in the room sighing. This news was heard by his men.
Now, General Wang in the city has issued an obituary.
Luo Zhen turned over. He was waiting for Kang Ge'er. If Kang Ge'er was free, he would definitely come to find him.
After tossing and turning, he simply sat up.
"Knock knock knock."
He was shocked, "Who is it?"
"It's me, General Xiao, Captain Xiao wants to see you."
Since he couldn't sleep anyway, Luo Zhen simply got up.
He opened the door and went out. "Do you know what it is? You're still asking for an audience so late at night."
"I don't know. He's in the main hall right now. I guess he has something important to tell me."
"Let's go."
The room returned to silence. A faint crisp sound was heard in the darkness, then disappeared, as if the sound was just an illusion.
When Luo Zhen came back, the rain outside was getting heavier. Even though he was wearing a straw raincoat, half the corners of his clothes were wet.
"Would you like some water, General?"
Luo Zhen flicked his sleeves and handed the raincoat to the person next to him.
"No, please leave. I'm not in a good mood. Don't bother me."
"Yes."
The men took their leave.
Luo Zhen walked in and waited for him to enter the inner room.
Suddenly, he struck out to the right, and a strong wind swept through. Fortunately, Kang Ge'er dodged quickly and avoided it.
Luo Zhen's brows were furrowed, but when he saw who it was, his eyes immediately widened.
"Kang!"
As soon as he uttered a sound, Kang Ge'er covered his face with his hand.
This idiot is so stubborn.
When Luo Zhen and Kang Ge'er saw each other, their eyes were filled with tears.
They have been playing together for so many years since they were young. They used to do bad things together secretly when they were young, and team up to beat up those who bullied them. Now they go to war together to kill the enemies. In their hearts, they are brothers with different surnames.
"When I heard the news of your death, I was almost scared to death."
There is not enough time, so Kang Ge'er will make it short.
He had the news of the death released, taking advantage of the favorable conditions to escape.
"Those people didn't let go of hunting me down, so I just spread the news of my death first to catch them off guard."
Then he told Luo Zhen everything about how he used Fang Youming to lure the enemy into a trap, as well as what he learned from the interrogation.
"Just be aware of these things and don't act rashly. Also, stay alert and observe your surroundings for any unusual activity. There are traitors within the army, hiding deep within the army, and they might even be connected to the royal family."
Luo Zhen nodded seriously, "Do you also think there's something wrong with General Qin?"
Kang Ge'er shook his head. "It's hard to say. Anyway, just be vigilant."
"Oh, right."
Kang Ge'er remembered something and said, "I need to trace the origin of a letter, so I have to go back to Beijing quietly. You should be careful here."
Then, he was told how to contact him.
"If anything happens, there's a female doctor named Gu Rui in the auxiliary medical department. She'll try to contact you. If you have any news, you can ask her to bring it out."
"Okay, I get it. How's your injury?"
Luo Zhen saw that he had changed his clothes.
"Not very good, very good."
Of course he didn't say that he had been lying in the cellar, in darkness for several days.
"Can you lend me your clothes? Mine are wet."
"Just wear it. Are you here alone?"
"No, there's another person guarding outside. It's getting late, I have to go."
He stood up and prepared to leave, but Luo Zhen asked him to wait a moment.
"Take this thing."
Kang Ge'er took it and it was a token.
"City defense force, five thousand men."
Looking at Kang Ge'er's wide-open eyes, Luo Zhen raised his chin proudly.
Kang Ge touched it curiously. Forgive him for being a country bumpkin, he had never seen this thing before.
"How come you have this?"
"My father gave it to me."
That is the reward from His Majesty.
As expected of a family of military generals, Kang Ge'er admired in his heart.
"You gave it to me, aren't you afraid that your father will beat you?"
Luo Zhen thought of his father's whip and shuddered.
"I'm in a border town, so I don't need it. Just take it and don't need to return it to me quietly later."
Kang Ge'er wanted to refuse, but he really didn't have many people under his command, either the emperor or the queen.
There are enough people, but at least this thing is a guarantee.
"Okay, I hope I won't have to."
As the two said goodbye, Luo Zhen was still a little worried.
When he returned to the house and saw the clothes left by Kang Ge'er, he put them in the charcoal brazier on the side and lit them with a fire starter.
After a round trip in the heavy rain, Kang Ge had a slight fever the next day.
When Fan Xuanyu came over to change the dressing, he remained silent.
Kang Ge'er felt a little scared when he saw Fan Xuanyu, who was unusually silent today.
In the past, she would at least say a few words, but today she didn't say a word, which made him a little puzzled.
Are you in a bad mood today?
