Chapter 1013: Military Camp
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As long as Wufu was happy in the military camp, they were happy.
She had been a little worried before they left.
After all, Wufu was the noisiest once among her kids. She was afraid that he would not be a good soldier. Even if he was a good soldier, he would not be happy in the military camp.
Now that she saw this painting, she was completely relieved. Wufu was happy in the military camp.
“Alright, I’ve finished reading the letter. Xue Yan, Jiang Yue, you two should go practice martial arts with Master Gu. It’s almost time.” Xue Erfu smiled as he folded the letter and put it back into the envelope.
“Yes, yes. Don’t let Master Gu wait too long.” Liu Guixia and the others also rushed them out.
“We’ll go now.” Jiang Yue and Xue Yan then obediently went out the door again and headed towards the old house,
When they went to the old house, they were not in a hurry to practice martial arts. Instead, they took out the letter that Shao Shuting had written to Xue Yan and read it.
Jiang Yue stood at the side. After reading the letter, she said, “We should go to camp.”
Xue Yan understood what she meant and nodded. “We must make sure that they won’t know about me from others. I should have told them myself. Later, we’ll tell our family that we’ll go to the military camp to see Sanfu and Wufu. We can say that we haven’t seen them for a long time and miss them. It’s not far. Even if we go back and forth, we’ll be back in a day or two at most.”
“Yes.” Jiang Yue had no objections. “Then let’s go tomorrow. The earlier we go, the better.’
Xue Yan also felt this way and naturally nodded in agreement.
After practicing martial arts in the morning, they went back for lunch. Jiang Yue and Xue Yan planned to tell their families that they would go to the military camp to see Sanfu and Wufu tomorrow.
However, before they reached home, they heard the sound of crickets making noise in a specific pattern. They immediately looked in the direction of the sound and saw the secret guard Zou Ba hiding behind Chunmei’s house.
Zou Ba and Zou Shisi had followed Zou Yi to keep an eye on Prince Ying.
The last time Zou Shisi had returned, he immediately went to meet up with Zou Yi again and continued to keep an eye on Prince Ying.
Zou Yi probably sent Zou Shisi back last time to inform them about the recent updates. This time, Zou Yi didn’t let Zou Shisi come back, but instead asked Zou Ba to go.
They had warned him not to be exposed by the villagers there.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked around. After making sure that no one else saw them, they walked through the path and went to the back of Chunmei’s house.
In order to prevent eavesdroppers, they walked to the back of Chunmei’s house and walked behind the tall grass.
Zou Ba hurriedly bowed and reported in a particularly low voice.
“Nine days ago, Prince Ying sent two more men out of Jing Yue to the South. They went straight to Xinyuan County, but they were trying to find out more about the people that came from before.
“Originally, I only followed behind them and surpassed them. However, on the way, those two people discovered my position and didn’t want to be captured alive. I had no choice but to kill them. Those two didn’t have anything on them to prove their identity.”
When Jiang Yue and Xue Yan heard this, they both felt that this was definitely because the previous batch of people had not returned and had not sent any news back. Thus, Prince Ying had sent two more people out to investigate and see what had happened to that batch of people.
The two people he sent out were obviously not the kind of people to fight others, instead, they were casual spies. Otherwise, no matter how skilled Zou Ba was, he might not be able to kill these two people alone.
“There’s one more thing,” Zou Ba continued to report in a low voice.” When I was about to reach Xinyuan County, I thought I saw the Emperor..”
