BXBX NOVEL Chapter 146: Learn More About The Spy's Treason.
“How come he’s never been busy in the mornings or late at night until now?! But he happens to be busy right now?!” Chen Ge howled.
Xiao YuAn laughed out loud: “I’m not in a hurry, so why are you acting all impatient for? It’s alright, the guard in front of Yan-ge’s tent said that once Yan-ge finishes discussing with the Generals, he would inform him that I went to go see him.”
Chen Ge wanted to say something, but stopped himself the moment he saw a young soldier running out from the tent. When the young soldier saw Xiao YuAn, he quickly pulled him inside: “Physician Xiao, you’re here! I’ve finally found you! It seems that one of the soldiers’ wounds became extremely serious. Quick, go to check on him.”
Xiao YuAn didn’t dare to be slow as he quickly opened the curtain and walked in. The wounded soldier was the one who had a poor healing ability, and since the weather was hot, the wound didn’t scab over; instead, it turned into pus. Fortunately, it wasn’t very serious, so Xiao YuAn simply asked someone to bring him a strong wine so that he could clean the soldier’s wound. After several tosses, the wounded soldier was finally better, but Xiao YuAn ended up dirtying himself.
Xiao YuAn felt disgusting, so he took some clean clothes and a wooden basin, intending to go to the river half a mile away from the barracks to clean himself. No officer below the rank of a Deputy General was allowed to leave the barracks without permission, so Xiao YuAn took a permission slip given to him by Yan HeQing, which stated that he could wander in and out of the barracks at will.
After such a busy day, in the twinkling of an eye, the moon and stars appeared in the night sky again. Xiao YuAn then untied his clothes, took off his mask, and scooped a handful of water to wash his cheeks. Then he scooped more river water and slowly poured it on his body, slowly adapting himself to the slightly cool water temperature.
The temperature was slightly cold in the countryside, and the moonlight shining on the surface of the river was gently stirred by Xiao YuAn’s movements. Because of the sound of water, Xiao YuAn didn’t notice the strange soft sound coming from the grass behind him.
Huang Yue’s Deputy General rushed back to the barracks, heading towards the tent where a group of Generals argued from day to night, until finally, they were finally able to make a final decision. At that moment, the Deputy General leaned over Huang Yue and whispered a few words in his ear.
Huang Yue’s eyes widened and led him to a deserted place, then he asked: “Did you see him clearly? Are you completely sure that he’s the former Northern Kingdom’s Emperor?”
The Deputy General nodded with certainty: “General Huang, should we take him-…?”
“No. The Emperor will never allow such a thing. Tomorrow His Majesty will personally go after the Eastern Wu deserters, so we can’t do anything right now.” Huang Yue frowned, stroked his chin, and whispered: “We shall wait until we defeat the Eastern Wu Kingdom, and then discuss this matter with General Xue.”
The Deputy General’s eyes suddenly lit up for some unknown reason as he hastily lowered his head in order to suppress his thoughts, then he cautiously asked: “General Huang, is His Majesty really going to chase after the Eastern Wu deserters tomorrow?”
“Yes, the Emperor intends to lead elite troops to sneak attack. Even if there’s a trap, he can still catch them off guard. I think that His Majesty is being too cautious. The enemy’s army is already in ruins and their General has already been defeated once, so why bother?” Huang Yue said.
The Deputy General saluted him: “The General is wise, wise, wise.”
He said three times in a row, and every time he said it, his head would lower a bit more; his tone would be a bit higher, and the last letter would be a bit longer.
“Alright, let’s have a rest. The matter concerning the former Northern Kingdom’s Emperor will have to wait until the war is over.” Huang Yue waved his hand and turned around to leave.
On the other hand, the Deputy General bent down and clasped his fist. Once Huang Yue was long gone, he got up and took advantage of the night’s darkness, once again going to the ancient tree outside the barracks.
This time, there was a remnant of the piece of cloth he buried under the ancient tree last time, and with the help of the moonlight, the Deputy General saw a big word written on it: “Withdraw.”
As the white moonlight fell, the Deputy General showed a sinister smile, then he bit his finger and wrote: “Don’t worry, we have a scapegoat.”
Shit XYA’s identity was discovered o（ｉДｉ）o
That Huang Yue better stay away from him! (ง ͠° ͟ل͜ ͡°)ง
