Chapter 267 The plan is still there(1/2)
Shise sat on the stool and looked at her brother who had fallen into a coma again. At this time, her face was full of helplessness.
She wanted to take her brother back to her clan, but her brother was seriously injured and something would happen if he was not treated.
The elder brother's bodyguard, Mordang, was also injured. He was less injured than his elder brother, but it was still difficult for him to travel far.
She had no choice but to report it to the official.
She was afraid of being chased. There were only three of them left in the team of dozens of people. If her brother and Mordang hadn't been desperately protecting her, she might have died on the road.
She couldn't figure out why her brother would go back and forth seven or eight times a year for this kind of business, and nothing happened. Why would something happen this time?
Moreover, only this time she followed.
Women always have more random thoughts than men. She is even blaming herself, wondering if her brother's bad luck is caused by her following him.
Now, she is the only one left. In the past, her brother and the others took care of her, but this time it was her turn to take care of others.
She looked back and saw the soldiers standing outside the door, which made her a little scared.
Because she was sure that it was Dayu's officers and soldiers who intercepted them on the way.
Her brother said that when she went to the City Lord's Mansion, she didn't understand it at first, but later she understood.
The elder brother said that they didn’t know who the enemy was. They might be from the Dayu government, so they should go to the highest government office in Yunzhou.
Go and see the city lord and put yourself in front of the public. Those who want to silence them will not dare to kill people outside the city lord's house in broad daylight.
But the city lord's palace didn't care and said that such a case belongs to Wu Lingwei.
She didn't know what Wu Lingwei was, but she had no choice.
There were footsteps outside the door, and Shise immediately grasped the handle of the knife. Any disturbance now would be enough to disconnect her tense nerves.
Someone came in from outside the military tent: "Girl, our general is here. If you need anything, just tell our general."
When she heard this, she subconsciously looked towards the door.
The two burly men separated to the left and right, and immediately after, a face that she was obviously unfamiliar with but had longed for appeared in front of her.
At this moment, Shise stood up suddenly, his eyes wide open.
The next moment, she suddenly burst into tears, crying heartbreakingly.
Two moments later, outside the big tent.
Lin Ye stood there with his back to Shise, and she sat next to him and wolfed down a large bowl of noodles.
I haven't eaten or rested for two days and two nights, and my spirit is almost broken.
Seeing Lin Ye at this time, the string finally loosened a little. For some reason, she firmly believed that Lin Ye would not harm her or her brother.
If she hadn't seen Lin Ye, she might not have bothered to take a bite of the meal. Even if the meal was placed in front of her, she would have no appetite and would not be able to eat it.
It's a grounding feeling that's hard to explain.
After Shise finished eating, Lin Ye turned back and sat down opposite her.
"I heard them say, are you sure the murderer is an officer of Dayu?"
Lin Yewen.
Shise fumbled around in his arms for a while, took out something and handed it to Lin Ye.
Lin Ye took it and looked at it. It was something that looked like a token, but there was not a word on it.
On the front is the battle flag pattern of Dayu, the Cloud-Stepping Dragon Flag, and on the back is the pattern of a fist.
Lin Ye has never seen this kind of token.
But this big jade battle flag is unmistakable.
"They showed up halfway and started killing people without saying a word."
Shise said: "They all covered their faces and lurked on the roadside. Before they came out, they used the crossbows of your Dayu army."
She looked at Lin Ye: "My brother is very skilled in martial arts. He has killed many murderers... This token was accidentally dropped by a murderer and I picked it up."
"They saw that my brother was fierce, so they retreated, taking away the body and the weapons they used, including crossbows."
"The remaining ten or so of us ran all the way north. We were only six or seven miles away when we were stopped by three people. They were...too strong."
"My brother was seriously injured and injured one of them. The loyal guards fought tooth and nail to defend us. In the end, only the three of us escaped."
"The two men chased them until they were almost close to Yunzhou City. They seemed to be afraid to take action outside the city gate, so they retreated."
Lin Ye nodded when he heard this.
"You rest first, I'll go check it out and come back in the afternoon."
After Lin Ye finished speaking, he stood up.
Shise reached out and grabbed Lin Ye's sleeve. She didn't say anything, but she held her hand tightly.
At this moment, what Lin Ye seemed to see was not Shise, but Zinai.
Just like when Zinai first met him, she tightly grasped the corners of his clothes.
"It's safe here."
Lin Ye said slowly: "Have a good rest here. I'll be back soon."
Shise hesitated for a moment and nodded.
Lin Ye looked at Jiao Tianbao: "Bring your own troops to guard us. No outsiders are allowed to come near."
Jiao Tianbao immediately responded, walked closer and said to Miss Shise: "Don't worry, you will be safe once you enter Wulingwei."
After Lin Ye left the camp, he went home first and told Zinai that he would come back to have dinner with her in the evening.
Zinai asked him what happened, and Lin Ye told him the truth.
Zina fell silent after hearing this. She is probably the person who best understands that feeling.
She said: "Let me go over and accompany that sister. The military camp is full of men, and many things are inconvenient."
Lin Ye nodded: "That's fine, I'll come back from investigating the case and let's go home together."
An hour later, Lin Ye led a team of Wu Lingwei to the south of the city.
Lin Ye had someone check the location Shi Se mentioned carefully, and there were no traces of a fight.
There was no body or blood, and there were sweep marks on the road, indicating that the scene had been cleaned up.
In broad daylight, the other party acted like this, obviously with no fear.
Lin Ye looked at Pang Panghai: "Go to the City Lord's Mansion and ask to see the City Lord. Ask if the City Lord's Mansion sent someone to collect the body."
Pang Panghai responded.
Lin Ye looked at another soldier: "Go to the government office and ask."
Then he got on his horse and said, "Others, follow me to the front to have a look."
A group of cavalry roared out and walked south along the official road.
According to Shise, six or seven miles south of the place we just checked, there should be the place where they were ambushed, where the Huole people suffered heavy losses.
But after arriving here, what I saw was exactly the same as before.
The official road has been cleaned. The traces of cleaning are not important. What is important is that there are no traces of fighting.
According to Shise, they noticed something was wrong two days ago.
So her brother Qiqinying decided to rush to Yunzhou overnight to get out of the customs as soon as possible.
Shise also said that after traveling continuously for a day and night, they should have avoided an ambush.
At that time, we had just come out of a town. There was no village for dozens of miles, so Qiqinying decided to change the route and took a long detour.
Perhaps it was precisely because of this impromptu change of course that it really disrupted those who wanted to take action against them.
Only then was he forced to take action closer to Yunzhou City.
But an ordinary caravan has already avoided an ambush. Why would those people risk another ambush?
There's absolutely no way this is about money.
Lin Ye suddenly woke up and realized that he had asked one less question.
He turned his horse around and said, "Go back."
The soldiers responded and urged their horses to follow Lin Ye back to Yunzhou City.
After Lin Ye and the others left, on a high slope in the distance, a man crawling in the grass got up.
Wherever Lin Ye and the others went before, there were people watching in secret.
By the time Lin Ye returned to Wulingwei Camp, the medical officer had already arrived, diagnosed and treated Qiqinying, and also used medicine.
Lin Ye asked about it, and the medical officer said that the injury was very serious and he could not guarantee that there would be no danger of life or death.
Lin Ye looked to the side again. Zinai was holding Shise's hand and talking. It could be seen that although the two were not familiar with each other yet, Shise's condition was obviously much better with Zinai around.
Lin Ye walked over, chatted for a while, and then asked: "Are you going to Lin Manting City for your delivery this time?"
