Chapter 179 Keep up
In the corner of the military camp, there were shadows moving around, and several heads were gathered together, obviously whispering something.
"How is it, did you find it?" Hong Shan asked.
"No."
"Neither do I have one here."
Several people shook their heads with serious expressions.
"Damn it! Where did these two people go!" Hong Shan's brows were twisted into a 川 shape, and his patience was almost gone.
At this time, someone lowered his voice and asked, "Could it be... ran away?"
"Run?" Everyone was stunned.
"Yeah, Douzi is timid and cowardly. If it weren't for his strength, he wouldn't even be able to join the Imperial Guard. This time on the mission, Old Ding took him with him like a child!"
"Yeah, I've always felt they had a special relationship. Old Ding is such a cold person, have you ever seen him smile at anyone? But he's pretty nice to Douzi."
"If you put it that way, I think it might be true! A few days ago, I heard Douzi complaining a little. He said that he thought he could live a good life following his elder brother, but he didn't expect it to be nothing but hard work. Now he dreams of going back to live an ordinary life and being an ordinary person."
"Hmph, running? This is a fucking deserter!" Hong Shan spat on the ground, his eyes full of disgust.
"So what do we do now? Are we still going to look for it?"
"It's too cold today."
Several people put their hands together to keep each other warm. They were obviously tough guys, but they had been doing hard work in the Imperial Guards over the years. However, it was much better than here. They hadn't had such an experience for many years.
"Hey! What are you guys doing?!"
"Scatter, scatter, and go back!"
There was a roar from behind.
After being yelled at by the other party, everyone put on a smile, scattered like birds and beasts in an instant, and went back quietly.
……
But it's a coincidence.
When Su Chengnan and Yi Er and a few others were walking towards the tent of the Beiling Army's commander-in-chief, they happened to run into Hong Shan who was returning from the side.
He was talking to someone in a low voice as he walked.
When he passed by Su Chengnan, he walked forward without blinking his eyes, as if he didn't see her.
After the people passed by, Su Chengnan stopped and looked at his back thoughtfully, "Yi Er, do you think that person is strange?"
"Is it weird?"
"Well, his accent is a bit like Beijing's, and there's a feeling I can't put my finger on. It feels a bit strange."
"Then I'll follow and take a look."
"Be careful."
Yi Er is a good tracker. He will not rush up to fight with others without clear evidence and direct discovery, so Su Chengnan is very confident that nothing will happen to him.
Arrived in front of the tent.
The soldier in charge of guarding couldn't help but brighten his eyes when he saw her coming, with a look of astonishment in his eyes, a pursuit of beauty.
Su Chengnan suddenly understood what that indescribable feeling she had just had was!
Yes! That man's behavior was very abnormal. He didn't even look at her. In this military camp where women are rarely seen, isn't such behavior strange?
There must be something wrong!
She turned around and said to the people behind her, "Go and help him. Make sure you find out who this person is, where he's been, and who he's familiar with."
"Yes!"
"Remember not to alert the enemy!"
"My subordinate understands!"
The two left in a hurry, leaving Gangzi alone.
The guard at the door clasped his hands together and said, "Miss Su, the general is discussing combat matters inside. I'm afraid it's not convenient at this moment..."
"I have something important to report to the general. Please, little brother, pass it on for me. Just say there's news from the capital."
When he heard the word "Beijing", his eyes trembled slightly and he became alert. "Then please wait a moment. I'll go ask."
"Thank you."
After a while, he came out.
"General, please come in."
"it is good."
Su Chengnan smiled at him. He was stunned and quickly helped her open the curtain.
The furnishings inside were the same as usual in TV dramas, with tables and chairs for meetings, a sand table in the middle of the front, and a screen next to it. Behind the screen should be Li Shanqi's resting place.
The room was very warm, the temperature seemed to be two seasons different from outside.
Li Shanqi and his men were discussing matters. When they saw her come in, everyone looked over.
Su Chengnan was not at all stage-frightened. She smiled faintly and walked over with a nonchalant expression, "General."
"Miss Su, you came here so late, but do you have any important news to tell this general?"
"This is about the Beiling Army, I dare not delay."
"Oh?" Li Shanqi looked over with an inquiring look.
The others looked curious, but with a hint of contempt.
Sure enough, someone jumped out first, "Don't exaggerate, how could a woman get such important information? Don't be ridiculous!"
"That's right, I think you should stop delaying our meeting!" another person echoed.
Li Shanqi remained silent. Only Chen Hao could no longer bear to watch and stood up to defend Su Chengnan. "Why are you so anxious? This Miss Su was the one who delivered the large crossbows during the day. Don't talk like that."
"It was just sent over. It's not like she did it."
"How can it not be her?! This picture..."
"Old Chen, you've probably lost your mind just because you see her beauty. I'm not stupid. That thing was clearly made by those little kids in the woodworking workshop. I've even been there before!"
"You're wrong!" Chen Hao interrupted the person beside him and sternly corrected him. "Liuzi and the others made this thing only after getting Miss Su's approval and instructions. She is the real designer!"
"I don't believe it." The other party curled his lips and shook his head uncontrollably.
"Don't believe it? Lao Zhang, go ask Liuzi yourself if that's the case!!"
"Hmph, I'm not going. The General hasn't made a decision yet. Don't even think about sending me away so that I can stay here alone and try to trick the General into listening to you. What you just said is too risky, I think, and it won't work!"
After listening for a long time, Su Chengnan finally understood that the two people had disagreements in their previous conversation, and she just came in at the wrong time and was innocently made a target.
She didn't have time to wait here any longer, so she simply spoke first, "The crossbow issue isn't important, as long as I can help. I have other blueprints in hand, and I've given them to Liuzi to work on."
"There's more?!" Chen Hao was surprised.
Su Chengnan nodded, but did not continue speaking. Instead, he walked up to Li Shanqi alone, slowly took out the letter from his sleeve, and placed it on his desk.
Li Shanqi lowered his head, picked it up and took a closer look.
His attitude immediately changed 180 degrees. He waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "All of you get out first."
"General!" The two people just now were dissatisfied.
"go out!"
"Yes, we'll leave first." Chen Hao saluted and pulled the two of them out first...
