After her mind was read, the spoiled brat became the darling of the whole group.

"What else can you hear?" Jun Lanjin asked in return.

The warlord instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

Jun Lanjin said, "Presumably, there must have been thieves in the General's Mansion who burned down the small kitchen first to attract the guards in the study, and then took advantage of the chaos to enter the study, but were discovered by Xie Yuze. The two fought, and Xie Yuze was seriously injured and on the verge of death."

"Yuze!" Old Madam Xie almost threw herself on Xie Yuze and cried out.

I never expected things to turn out this way.

How could this happen?

Old Madam Xie had sharp eyes and noticed the hairpin stuck in Xie Yuze's chest.

Upon hearing the sobs on her face, she pointed a trembling finger at the hairpin on Xie Yuze's chest, "This...this hairpin..."

Jun Lanjin narrowed his eyes slightly: "What's wrong with this hairpin?"

Even Madam Xie wasn't sure: "This hairpin looks familiar to me; it's like the one I gave to Mingzhu."

The gifts that Madam Xie gave to Xie Mingzhu were naturally extremely valuable, and the hairpin was a unique piece, making it very easy to identify.

But putting aside the fact that Xie Mingzhu is currently in the palace, and given the heavily guarded General's Mansion, how did Xie Mingzhu, a woman, manage to get out of the palace and into the study of General's Mansion?

"Xie Mingzhu's hairpin?" Jun Lanjin glanced at Xie Yuze's chest, and after a moment's thought, he knew what it meant.

A cold smile flashed across his eyes, and he said, "Who the murderer is is not important now. The most important thing now is to save Xie Yuze's life. We can talk about the rest later."

Madam Xie's face was pale. She was completely flustered. Hearing Jun Lanjin's words, she could only repeat, "Yes...yes..."

Soon, Ximen Zhu rushed over.

Upon arriving at the general's mansion, I saw Xie Yuze with a hairpin stuck in his chest.

He clicked his tongue twice, went up to examine him, and then said, "How strange! This hairpin has already been inserted into his heart meridian. Logically speaking, he should be dead, but he is still clinging to life."

What did you feed him?

Jun Lanjin replied, "The Three-Day Pill."

The Three-Day Pill can extend the life of anyone who still has a breath left for three days after taking it.

Ximen Zhu rolled up his sleeves and said, "This kid is lucky. If it weren't for the Three-Day Pill and me, the divine doctor, even a celestial being wouldn't have been able to save his life."

"Okay, you go out."

Ximen Zhu waved his hand.

Jun Lanjin and the Xie family members all went out.

When Madam Xie learned that Xie Yuze had almost died, she nearly cried herself to death in Xie Jiaojiao's arms.

Her utter breakdown.

"Damn it, who is it that's harming my son?!"

"My Xie family has never done anything wrong. If you have a problem, come at me. What's the big deal about hurting my son?"

"They're already trapped in the mansion and can't move freely, so why are they still making such a fuss about the Xie family!"

"what!"

"My son!"

Madam Xie was sobbing uncontrollably.

After all, he was her own son. No matter how much she disliked him on a regular basis, the news that Xie Yuze had almost died felt like it had taken half her life.

How could this happen out of nowhere?!

Xie Jiaojiao hugged Madam Xie and could only frantically try to comfort her: "Auntie, please cheer up, Third Cousin will be alright."

"Aren't the prince and the divine physician still here?"

Madam Xie remained silent, only sobbing.

Jun Lanjin walked over and glanced at her, but didn't say anything.

This matter had blown up quite a bit, so after thinking it over, Jun Lanjin decided to go to the palace.

He now roughly guessed the whole story. Xie Tongchen probably knew about this because he heard it from Xie Xing's inner thoughts.

This means that Xie Xing went with the army.

Thinking of this, a hint of annoyance flashed across Jun Lanjin's eyes.

Ok.

He was truly one of his most loyal followers; having been rescued by him, he ran away again just a few days later.

Don't let him run into her.

Junlan entered the palace in a huff.

……

the other side.

"Achoo!" Xie Xing suddenly sneezed.

Song Ci'an glanced at her. "What's wrong? Are you cold from the night breeze?"

Xie Xing rubbed his nose and shook his head, saying, "I don't know, I'm perfectly warm right now, I haven't gotten cold at all."

That sneeze made it seem like someone was thinking of her.

She stroked the moon's fuzz beside her, thought for a moment, and realized that given her current situation of sudden disappearance, there were probably quite a few people who would still think of her.

As she was thinking, Xie Xing suddenly realized that she had forgotten to send a message to Jun Lanjin before leaving home.

Caiyue and Qi Yi are also staying at Jun Lanjin's residence!

Xie Xing suddenly stood up from where he was.

Song Ci'an looked up, seeing her startled expression, and frowned, asking, "What's wrong with you now?"

Xie Xing sat down again, moved closer to Song Ci'an, and asked in a low voice, "Second Brother, do you have any pigeons that can carry messages?"

She wanted to send a message to Jun Lanjin.

Song Ci'an was speechless. He reached out and flicked Xie Xing's forehead with his finger, saying, "Who else are you trying to send a message to?"

"The army is on edge. If you try to send a message and get shot down, your identity will definitely be discovered."

Xie Xing thought about it.

makes sense.

She's now just a person in disguise, no longer Xie Xing.

She has now changed her surname to Song.

What name should I choose?

Let's call him Song Ren.

The "ren" in "renyi" (仁义道德) refers to benevolence, righteousness, and morality.

Xie Xing told Song Ci'an the name she had just come up with.

Song Ci'an's face darkened: "Call me whatever you want, but you can't leave my sight."

Xie Xing nodded.

She didn't want to see Xie Tongchen in front of her, and she wanted to see Luo Hanfeng even less.

Why would she make a fool of herself?

After spending the night in the military camp, Xie Xing began to travel with the main force.

She stayed close to Song Ci'an and didn't wander off. When she got tired, she would sit on the back of the moon.

As for those with titles, or cavalrymen who had horses, like Song Ci'an, they had their own warhorse, while infantrymen walked slowly behind the army.

In cases like Xie Xing, people also follow along.

But she was different from the other soldiers; she rode a tiger, which looked much more imposing than those on horseback.

With a tiger by her side, it's hard for her not to attract attention.

Xie Xing didn't care about any of that. She leisurely lay on the tiger's back, occasionally grabbing the moon's fur, and said, "You're still young and growing. I feel like you haven't been eating much lately."

"How about we go hunting when we get to the next location?"

"I'll grill some meat for you."

Whether the moon understood or not, it let out a lazy howl and slowly followed behind the group.

Inside the carriage, Xie Mingzhu lifted the curtain and turned to look in Xie Xing's direction. She asked in surprise, "Why is there a tiger in the group?"

Luo Hanfeng said, "That's a fellow villager of one of your second brother's soldiers. He said he wants to join the army."

"They brought the tiger they raised from a cub with them."

A light flashed in Xie Mingzhu's eyes as she looked at the moon with envy: "Everyone says tigers are extremely fierce, but this tiger is so docile, which is quite surprising."
