pungent peasant girl

Chapter 440 Doubt

Yin time is the coldest time of the day.

Unaccustomed to sleeping in the tent outside, Meng Qianyan woke up from the cold.

She put on her clothes, moved another quilt to cover her with another layer, and then lay back.

Lying on the bed, but couldn't fall asleep.

The night was quiet.

Mo Yun will attack the city soon, right?

Her eyes were open, unblinking in the night.

I don't know how long it took, but there was a sound, and it was the soldiers outside who set off.

Meng Qianyan heard the voice, but acted as if he didn't hear it, and just lay there, motionless.

Outside the tent, there was a figure passing by, but she didn't seem to see it either.

Just like that, lying down all the time.

Until the sky gradually brightened, everything in the tent became clearer.

Outside, the maid's voice sounded, "His Royal Highness, do you want to get up and eat?"

Meng Qianyan deliberately waited for a while before lazily saying, "Okay, I'll get up later and go eat by myself."

The footsteps were far away, Meng Qianyan sighed and climbed down from the bed.

When we got out of the tent again, it was already another dawn.

The camp was much empty, and most of the soldiers had already been dispatched.

She watched all this.

He thought to himself, if reinforcements came from behind to raid Mo Yun's rear, Mo Yun would definitely be in chaos.

But counting the days, it may be a long time before the arrival of General Yue.

In Mo Yun's tent, people came and went.

She asked one of the maids, "Where is the lord?"

"Yes, the prince is here." The maid nodded.

She groaned and didn't say anything else.

Breakfast came, and she ate it in her tent.

After eating, he silently waited for the result of the siege.

One morning, my heart has been restless.

It wasn't until a mighty voice came from a distance that she quietly looked outside.

It is the soldiers who went out and returned.

Obviously, there was no joy on the faces of these soldiers.

She was relieved.

It seems that Ziyan has successfully received her Kongming Lantern.

In Mo Yun's tent.

Ruoxian said angrily: "My lord, it's really abominable. The subordinates have planned so carefully, but they still haven't broken through the imperial city."

"what happened?"

"I don't know, we have been shouting outside, Luo Ziyan ignored us, and then we used force to attack the city, but the entire city tower was covered with ice, and there was no way to stand the long ladder, and there was also a lot of ice outside the city wall." , Luo Ziyan probably blocked us with ice on purpose."

"When the ice breaks, that's it."

"It's broken. When we broke the ice, Luo Ziyan led people to shoot arrows. We defended and advanced while breaking the ice. This is really a bit difficult."

"So you returned in vain?"

"No, just as we were struggling forward, the gate of the city opened. Luo Ziyan made a chariot at some point and rushed out, catching us by surprise. Our original plan was to attack in three times, but In doing so, he messed up our plans!"

Ruo Xian sighed deeply, "My lord, my subordinates are not good at attacking the city, please punish me!"

"Forget it, you have been doing your best these days, and people make mistakes, so go down and make a good rectification."

"Yes."

If you answered first, he took off his helmet and walked out.

Then, he stopped again, "My lord."

"Ok?"

"Don't you think it's a bit strange? Luo Ziyan's preparations seem to have been prepared to defeat our plan. Is it possible that someone from us leaked the military situation?"

Hearing this, Mo Yun frowned suddenly, "I will investigate."

"The subordinate has retired."

If you go far away first, Mo Yun stood up from the chair, staring at the terrain sand table in the center.

All the soldiers here are his confidantes, who were trained by him, and no one will betray him.

So, will the military situation really be leaked?

If this is the case, then the only person who should be suspicious is Qian Yan.

Qian Yan said that she came here because she wanted him to go back with her.

She kept calling him Brother Seventeen.

Will it be her?

His heart began to feel restless.

He is a man with little restlessness.

The time after noon was used to reorganize the barracks and formulate a new siege plan.

It didn't stop until night.

After Mo Yun had dinner, the surrounding tents became quiet, and the soldiers should have fallen asleep.

He was standing outside the tent, his black cloak fluttering in the wind, she saw Meng Qianyan ordering her Kongming lantern.

He walked over slowly, "Lighting up the lights again?"

Meng Qianyan heard the sound, looked back, and smiled, "Yes, I promised Ziyan that I would show him the Kongming Lantern every day to report his safety."

Mo Yun nodded, and squatted down beside her, "I don't even know that you are so ingenious and can make Kongming lanterns."

"It's very simple. Not only do I know these things, but I can also design clothes. Have you forgotten?"

"Hehe, yes, you have always been a very smart woman."

Meng Qianyan put down the hammer and played with the sky lantern in his hand, "Okay, I'm going to light it up now."

"Wait a moment."

The slender fingers pressed on Meng Qianyan's hand, feeling slightly cool.

Meng Qianyan looked at Mo Yun, "What's wrong? Brother Seventeen."

"This king wants to see how this Kongming lantern is made." He held it in his hand and looked it around in a circle. It was just ordinary, cylindrical, nothing special.

Seeing Mo Yun examining her eyes, Meng Qianyan giggled, "What? Brother Seventeen is afraid, did I write the situation in the barracks on it?"

"You have the ability to write?" Mo Yun sneered, and threw the Kongming lantern back to her, "You can put the lantern on."

"okay."

The Kongming Lantern was lit, and it slowly climbed into the night sky, and soon, it shone with the countless stars.

Meng Qianyan clapped his hands, "Okay, I'm sleepy too, I should go back to sleep."

"When are you going back to the capital?"

"Tomorrow, Brother Seventeen will send someone to give me a ride."

Mo Yun nodded, watching Meng Qianyan bouncing back into the tent.

He also returned to his tent.

It was late at night, but he wasn't sleepy.

Vaguely, I always feel that there is still a problem somewhere.

But where?
He couldn't figure it out.

a long time.

He suddenly stood up and called out in a low voice, "Come here."

"The subordinate is here." A figure appeared on the tent.

"Go, shoot down the Kongming Lantern from the sky to this king, and make sure it is delivered to this king in its entirety."

Meng Qianyan's mood was relatively low yesterday, how could she be so happy today?
Is it because of the siege and failed to break through or because of something else?

The attendant responded, and after a quarter of an hour, the attendant came back, "My lord, the Kongming lantern has been found."

"Bring it in."
