Along the way, the team traveled through mountains and rivers. Zhaozhao had never endured such hardship in order to trek to Liuyun, but he still had to grit his teeth and persevere.

When they were stationed in an open space, Zhao Zhao was gnawing on a dry steamed bun and was patted by someone next to him: "Hey! Little brother, you look so thin, why did you think of joining the army?"

Zhao Zhao pinched his throat and imitated the man's voice: "It's nothing, it's just that there are too many brothers in the family and they can't afford to feed themselves, so I went out to join the army on my own, for no other reason than to make a living and eat with others." Just starve to death!”

The man was excited by what he said and started chatting. He talked about the situation in his previous home and said with a smile: "But I heard that your accent doesn't sound like that of a Xingyue person. Have you stayed in Liuyun before? "

Zhaozhao didn't know what was going on. After returning from Liuyun, his speech had a slight accent.

When they were in the palace, my brother and father didn't pay attention. When they came to the military camp and interacted with a bunch of rough men, it was particularly obvious.

Zhaozhao nodded cautiously: "Actually, my hometown is in Liuyun. It's just that it's bitterly cold there and there's not enough food to eat, so..."

The man patted her shoulder and gave him the apple he had secretly hidden: "I'll give you an extra meal to see how thin you become! You speak softly and your thighs are not as thick as my arms. Even if you are not a woman, I even thought you were a teacher! How could you even lift a sword or a gun like this on the battlefield?"

Zhaozhao knew that the resources on the march were limited and the apple was very precious, so he returned it to him: "I don't want it. You can keep it for yourself. I will be full after eating the steamed buns. But I don't know what you call it yet."

The man slapped his chest and said, "My surname is Xu. Just call me Brother Xu! If you don't want to eat the apples, forget it. I'll take them back to my wife and children. My children should be six or seven years old now. I'm afraid." Already in school.

It’s a pity that I haven’t been back for so many years and you don’t know me at all…”

Xu Luo smiled bitterly, Zhao Zhao looked at him in confusion, what's going on?As far as she knows, her father's treatment in the military is the best. Every month, officers and soldiers can take turns going home to visit relatives. Has Brother Xu not been back for six or seven years?

How is it possible? Even if your home is far away, you won't celebrate New Year's Eve and some important festivals by yourself, right?

And what does bringing it back mean?
Aren't they on their way to Liuyun now?Could it be that... Zhao Zhao had a shocking thought, could Xu Luo be from Liuyun Kingdom?

But why do people from Liuyun Kingdom mix with the army of Star-Moon Kingdom? Is it to cooperate with the enemy's army inside and outside?

This thought made Zhao Zhao's eyes turn cold. She was just about to ask insinuatingly, but the centurion in front had already spoken and continued on her way.

Along the way, Zhao Zhao chatted with Xu Luo when he had nothing to do, and even gave him a lot of dry food that he couldn't finish. Xu Luo was originally a talkative character, and as their relationship got better and better, he gradually lost his guard against him. .

When sleeping at night, Zhao Zhao made a point of being next to Xu Luo and did not fall asleep to death. After waiting for the middle of the night, she clearly felt the position next to her move. When she opened her eyes, Xu Luo had already slipped away.

Zhao Zhao stood up quietly and immediately followed Xu Luo to the woods not far away. She watched Xu Luo intercept a carrier pigeon. The words written on it were too far away for her to see clearly.Zhao Zhao stood on tiptoe, trying to squint his eyes to see clearly, but was patted on the back: "Little brother, you didn't sleep in the middle of the night, did you get up on purpose to block me?"

Zhao Zhao narrowed her eyes and grabbed the letter in his hand when he wasn't paying attention. The moment she unfolded it, she froze on the spot. She couldn't admit Ji Lingxiu's handwriting was wrong, so those words above... Zhao Zhao took a deep breath, but It still felt like I was drenched by a chill from head to toe.

Xu Luo reacted, changed his previous nice words, took the letter and pushed him: "I didn't want to reveal my identity before I came to Liuyun Kingdom. Since you already know it, there is nothing to say. Don’t blame me for being ruthless. If I don’t kill you today, I will kill you tomorrow!”

"It's all your fault for being too curious. If you hadn't seen this letter, maybe I wouldn't have shut up. Little brother, just die in peace. I'll make amends to you when I get down there!"

Zhao Zhao didn't speak for a long time. After reacting, he touched his face. It was already cold. He didn't know when he had burst into tears, and his eyes were blurred by the tears.

Xu Luo was stunned for a moment, then heard her choke and say: "Are you from Ji Lingxiu? The confidant of Liuyun Kingdom's crown prince?"

Zhao Zhao knew very well that even if he was not a confidant, he should be a very reliable informant, otherwise he would not be qualified to have single-line contact with Ji Lingxiu, the prince.

Xu Luo was surprised how she knew the identity of the prince. Obviously the letter was not signed, could it be that...

"Are you an old friend of His Royal Highness?"

When Ji Lingxiu was in Xingyue before, he had mentioned to him that he had a very important old friend in Xingyue and asked him to help take care of him when he met.However, the prince's old friend was clearly a girl, and this...

Xu Luo scratched his head and stared at her warily, but Zhao Zhao had already squatted down, disappointment and helplessness wrapped around him.The letter said that Ji Lingxiu had stolen their country's defense map, so he was the one who caused the war?

Zhao Zhao didn't dare to think about when he got the things. If it was after he got to know himself, he might be an accomplice in the war.So, the eldest brother has never liked her. Is it just because she is a princess and because she can help him get close to Xingyue's national secrets?
It turned out that she was the only one who took the promise she made when she was young seriously.

When Xu Luo was still hesitating, a group of killers suddenly jumped out of the tree and slashed at them. Xu Luo had no choice but to drag Zhao Zhao to dodge left and right. However, he was just a spy and had no martial arts skills. It was limited, he was stabbed several times in the blink of an eye, and he was unable to cope with it.

The killer was obviously coming for Zhao Zhao. If Xu Luo hadn't stood in front of her, he probably wouldn't have been chopped down. The leading killer pinched Zhao Zhao's neck and was about to kill her with a click. The next second, there was something in the middle of his eyebrows. A terrible red bloody hole.

The killer fell down with his eyes open, and other killers were alert. However, the moment Gu Rongzhan waved his hand, the killer's men were crushed and swept away. A group of well-trained secret guards stood behind Gu Rongzhan. Zhao Zhao pursed his lips, suddenly feeling a little aggrieved. Want to cry.

Gu Rongzhan took her into his arms, and this time he was really angry: "Why are you running around? I didn't notice, and you sneaked into the military camp. What if something happens? I usually dote on you too much. It makes you lawless and does things without considering your own safety!"
