Chapter 208 There must be a misunderstanding

Zhao Di Pu began to feel annoyed.

He didn't even know the young player's background, but he revealed all the confidential information.

Normally, he wouldn't be so reckless. This must be the aftereffects of taking poison...

Zhao Dipu was a little stunned. He looked at Li Qingqing, not knowing how to respond for a moment.

However, when he took a look, he actually noticed something.

He found that Li Qingqing's expression when she spoke was very similar to that of the general.

Then he remembered what Wei Sheng had said before and the silver spear pointed in front of him.

"Qingli, Liqing..." Zhao Dipu murmured, his expression gradually changing.

"You, you are Qing-, you are him?!"

Zhao Di Pu opened his eyes wide and stood up suddenly.

Li Qingqing didn't say anything, but just looked at him with a cold expression.

Zhou Yimo's expression changed slightly, and he subconsciously stood in front of Li Qingqing.

Zhao Di Pu then realized that he was a little excited, and he sat down again.

He just stared at Li Qingqing and couldn't help but say, "It is said that the Wu Clan has a forbidden technique that can bring the deceased back to life at the cost of the caster's lifespan. There was such a Wu Clan member by General Nianqing's side."

Li Qingqing was suddenly shocked. So, Wu Meng...

Zhao Di Pu saw Li Qingqing's silence and became more convinced that it was him. Then he sighed and said,

"When I heard the tragic news of your passing, I realized that Qin Heng might have done this to deal with you. Although I am hostile to you, my admiration for you is genuine. Qin Heng's actions are truly despicable to me!"

"There's no need to talk about the past! General Zhao, I'm not here to reminisce about the past with you." Li Qingqing frowned.

After hearing this, Zhao Di Pu became even more excited.

"All I have sought is to recover our lost territory and free our people from the suffering of war. Qin Heng is ambitious. You protected this land back then, and you certainly wouldn't have the heart to watch it fall into the hands of treacherous people! I am willing to serve you wholeheartedly and be at your service."

Li Qingqing stared at Zhao Dipu, and seeing the sincerity in his eyes, she couldn't help but chuckle and said, "There's something I really need your help with right now!"

Zhao Di Pu heard this, and a glint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He quickly said, "Just follow my instructions, and I will do my best!"

Suddenly, there was a noise outside the door, and the three of them looked towards the door together.

I saw Censor Song hurried in.

"Sir Song, why are you here?" Li Qingqing frowned, with a scrutinizing look in her eyes.

Censor Song had been in the border city for many years and the soldiers all knew him, so no one stopped him from coming to the prisoner-of-war camp.

She had just forgotten to be vigilant and didn't know if Censor Song had heard anything.

Zhou Yimo looked at Censor Song with a serious face. If Censor Song overheard something and was going to report it, he would be the first one to not let him go.

It was a rare occasion that Censor Song did not drink alcohol today. His face was a little pale, but otherwise there was nothing unusual.

"Qing, City Lord Qing, your subordinate Bai Ye attempted to assassinate Protector Wei and has been detained. I'm afraid he's in a bad situation. Deputy General He privately asked me to come here to inform you of this matter."

"Impossible! How could Bai Ye possibly assassinate the Protector-General?" Li Qingqing looked at Censor Song deeply.

Just now, it was the first time that Censor Song addressed her like this. Could it be that he heard her conversation with Zhao Di Pu?

Seeing that Li Qingqing didn't believe it, Censor Song briefly recounted what had happened.

"This is absolutely true! Now that the war has ended, Bai Ye returned from outside the city and happened to meet the Protector General of Wei. He was like a madman and wanted to take his life!"

Upon hearing this, Li Qingqing exchanged a glance with Zhou Yimo and then said, "I'll go over and take a look."

After saying this, Li Qingqing raised her foot and walked out the door.

Bai Ye was brought by her from Qiu Shui Town, how could he know Wei Duhu?

Could it be that the Protector General of Wei did it on purpose?

Before she even found Protector Wei, he had already set his sights on her people!

"You--" Zhao Di Pu saw Li Qingqing was about to leave and wanted to call her, but he hesitated because there were outsiders present, and ultimately did not dare to speak.

After all, if she said something inappropriate, Li Qingqing would be charged with treason.

"Oh, right! Lord Zhou," Li Qingqing suddenly stopped and turned to Zhou Yimo, "General Zhao wants to commit suicide by taking poison. You are doing your best to treat him. You need to send more people and don't let anyone in to disturb him!"

Zhou Yimo's face froze when he heard this, and he immediately understood Li Qingqing's intention, "Okay!"

Li Qingqing nodded slightly, gave Zhao Dipu a reassuring look, then turned and strode out of the prisoner-of-war camp.

The Protector General of Wei did not return to his own Protectorate, but stayed temporarily in the main city.

As soon as Li Qingqing arrived near Protector Wei's residence, she saw that the area was heavily guarded, and all of them were the personal guards brought by Protector Wei.

"City Lord," a captain of the personal guard stepped forward to salute, but blocked the way to the door, "The Protector General has ordered that no one is allowed to—"

"Get out of the way!" Li Qingqing pushed the captain of the personal guards away with a palm, "I want to see the Protector General now!"

Li Qingqing strode towards the gate. The guards around her drew their swords, but no one dared to stop her.

Because today, Li Qing became famous in one battle, made great military achievements, and has become a prominent figure in the border city.

The messenger has quickly reported the battle situation to the court, and he will be rewarded by the court soon.

Such a person is not someone they can afford to offend.

In the main hall, Protector Wei was sitting in the main seat, sipping tea leisurely.

He looked at Li Qingqing who broke in and was not surprised.

"Li Qing, why are you looking for me so eagerly?" There was a faint smile on the corner of Wei Duhu's lips.

"I heard that you, sir, have detained my personal followers, so I have come to apologize." Li Qingqing bowed, then looked directly at Protector Wei and continued, "May I ask, sir, what crime has Bai Ye committed that you would trouble me personally to deal with him?"

Upon hearing this, Protector Wei slammed his teacup down on the table. "He attempted to assassinate me, how could he be innocent?"

"Your Excellency, please understand. He would never attempt to assassinate you. This must be a misunderstanding!"

"Oh, misunderstanding? He has accomplices, is this also a misunderstanding? Do you think I am framing you?" Protector Wei snorted coldly.

When Li Qingqing heard this, her heart sank. Besides Bai Ye, who else could it be?

The air in the hall froze instantly.

Li Qingqing frowned, her tone firm, "I dare not, but I don't know who else it is besides Bai Ye. I beg the Protector General to let me meet with them and ask them personally."

Li Qingqing stared at Protector Wei and refused to give in.

The two exchanged glances, and Wei Duhu suddenly smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

"Don't think you can be arrogant just because you've achieved a few military feats? I suspect your henchman is actually a spy from the enemy nation. I have the authority to execute him immediately!"

"It is truly unfair for you to decide someone's life or death based on mere speculation without any solid evidence."

Li Qingqing's eyes were slightly cold. "Although it is just a small military achievement, I am worried that I might accidentally say the wrong thing when I meet the emperor."

"Are you threatening me?" Protector Wei narrowed his eyes.

"I dare not. I only ask the Protector General to allow me to personally interrogate the case."

Li Qingqing's fingertips under her sleeves were deeply embedded in her palms. She repeatedly told herself that she could only endure it for the time being.

She didn't know where Bai Ye was imprisoned by Wei Duhu, nor did she know who his so-called accomplices were.

She just hoped it wasn't too late.
