Escape after crossing

At the same time, the king also sent a confidant to the military camp. After learning the exact location of the Black Rock Reef Mine, the confidant left.

Leng Chenming and Leng Shixuan were both well aware of the king's move. The king was afraid that he would take the mine into his own hands again.

However, the imperial edict clearly stated that Leng Chenming was ordered to return to the capital with Leng Shixuan after his injury was healed. As for the military camp, it would be temporarily handed over to the deputy general to take care of it.

In fact, Lingxi State had already given its reply when the one-month deadline was approaching. Leng Chenming already knew the result. After all, even if Lingxi State's treasury was robbed, Concubine Xiao would definitely do her best to raise compensation and then send the Emperor of Lingxi to send someone to escort it here.

Before Leng Chenming went to Lingxi Country, he had given some instructions to Xuanyi and Xuansan. When Lingxi Country gave a response, he could send a message directly back to Beijing. As expected, within a few days after Lingxi Country sent out the reply, they sent several boxes of silver to redeem the captured soldiers.

Immediately afterwards, Lingxi Kingdom presented a letter stating that two months later, Lingxi would send envoys to visit Lengli Kingdom, hoping to achieve a marriage between the two countries and thereby seek peaceful coexistence between the two countries.

The huge amount of money needed to redeem the second prince of Lingxi, Ji Yuze, will also be delivered during the mission to Lengli Country. These matters all involve national interests. Xuanyi knows their importance and dares not delay at all, so he immediately sends the letter back to the capital as fast as he can.

Therefore, when Leng Chenming and Leng Shixuan returned to the capital, they not only had to bring the second prince of Lingxi, Ji Yuze, with them, but also shouldered the responsibility of ensuring his safety. This undoubtedly added a special sense of mission and pressure to their return journey.

Therefore, on the surface, Leng Chenming still needs to recuperate for a few days before returning to the capital. Leng Chenming and Leng Shixuan also discussed in depth the issue of Ji Yuze's safety along the way.

"Uncle Ninth Prince, Lingxi Kingdom chose to send envoys to visit us at this time. I'm afraid they have ulterior motives!" Leng Chenming was well aware of the many contradictions within Lingxi Kingdom.

"You mean, someone among the envoys might try to take Ji Yuze's life? And then shift the blame to our country?" Although Leng Shixuan did not understand the internal disputes in Lingxi Kingdom, as a member of the royal family, he was well aware of these political tactics.

"Not only that, Ji Yuze is the most likely candidate to inherit the throne of Lingxi. If he encounters any misfortune in our country, then the marriage will be ruined. What's worse, the hatred between us and Lingxi may never be eliminated.

Moreover, if an accident happens on the way, it will be difficult for both of us to stay out of it. Therefore, not only the people in Lingxi, but also those guys in the capital may harm Ji Yuze. " Leng Chenming analyzed in a heavy tone.

Leng Shixuan was also frowning at this time, thinking secretly in his heart: There are many people in the capital who want to take his life.

Although Concubine Liu's family was implicated after the eldest prince's failed rebellion and imprisonment, due to the existence of the sixth prince, Concubine Liu was only demoted and demoted, and did not receive more substantial punishment.

Despite this, the Second Prince and the Queen still eyed Leng Shixuan covetously, without any intention of relaxing their vigilance. For them, this was undoubtedly a great opportunity, and I'm afraid they would never let this rare opportunity go easily.

Thinking of this, Leng Shixuan's mood became heavier. He knew that he was facing an unprecedented crisis. Facing such a complex and dangerous situation, he had to deal with it carefully. If he was not careful, he might fall into an irretrievable situation.

Leng Shixuan sighed, "What should we do now? If we return to Beijing with such a big trouble, I'm afraid we won't have a safe journey..."

Leng Chenming pondered for a moment, "Well, on the way back to Beijing, we must be extra careful. We can't let anyone take advantage of us."

The two decided to remain highly alert on the way back to Beijing to protect Ji Yuze's safety. Jiang Ziluo had no idea about these things. When she returned to the barracks, Jiang Hongyu had already learned her true identity from Mingyue and others.

Seeing Jiang Ziluo return safely, Jiang Hongyu's anxious heart finally settled down a little, but he couldn't help but keep nagging.

"You're so good! It's only been a few years since we last met! You've grown up, haven't you? You actually have the guts to run to another country, and even break into someone's palace! Why don't you go to heaven? And what are you doing in the military camp?

You came here without even telling me in advance! Do you know that this is dangerous? If something unexpected happens, how can I explain it to my parents? How can you, a girl, be so brave to run so far with other men...”

......

In the first few days after returning to the military camp, Jiang Ziluo was busy because of things to do. In addition to going to Leng Chenming to see a doctor for his injuries, Jiang Ziluo was always nagged by Jiang Hongyu whenever he came back.

"Alright, brother. I'm fine." Jiang Ziluo interrupted Jiang Hongyu with a smile. "Besides, I'm going with General Leng. How can there be any danger?"

Jiang Hongyu glared at her. "How dare you say that? I know who General Leng is better than you, but he is also a stranger. You are a girl..."

"Oh, brother, don't worry, I promise I won't be so impulsive again." Jiang Ziluo pulled Jiang Hongyu's arm and said coquettishly.

Jiang Hongyu shook his head helplessly. "You are always so worrying. By the way, did you encounter any other dangers when you went to Lingxi Country this time?"

Jiang Ziluo's eyes lit up, and she excitedly told him about her experience in Lingxi Country, and Jiang Hongyu listened with great interest. The brother and sister chatted enthusiastically, as if they had forgotten all their troubles.

Jiang Ziluo and Jiang Hongyu chatted for a long time until night fell. "Well, it's getting late, let's go to bed early." Jiang Hongyu rubbed his sister's hair.

"I know. Brother should go to bed early too." Jiang Ziluo nodded.

The next morning, Jiang Ziluo went to Leng Chenming to change the medicine as usual.

"General Leng, I'm here to change the medicine." Jiang Ziluo gently pushed open the door, with a bright smile on his face, and spoke as he walked.

At this moment, Leng Chenming was sitting quietly at the table, concentrating on reading the book in his hands.

After hearing the sound coming from the door, he slowly raised his head, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an imperceptible smile.

"Come in." Leng Chenming gently closed the book, then waved to Jiang Ziluo, asking her to sit on the chair next to him.

"General Leng plans to recover from his injury in a few days?" Jiang Ziluo blinked and teased mischievously. There was a hint of teasing in her tone, as if she was deliberately teasing the handsome and mighty general in front of her.

Leng Chenming was not angry. Instead, he responded happily: "Haha, this is not up to me, the general! After all, matters concerning the treatment of injuries and illnesses must be arranged by you, Doctor Jiang. I, the general, will listen to you and do what you say!" After saying that, he couldn't help laughing, with a bright light flashing in his eyes.
