Chapter 365 Keeping You in Suspense
"So close?"
Their current location is far from the encampment, and there are no other convenient places for observation and surveillance nearby except for a hillside. It is precisely for this reason that Jianyang chose to set a trap here.
Who would have thought that in this godforsaken place, where there might not be a single person for eight hundred years, someone would appear just when they were setting up a trap.
Jianyang patted the sand off his hands: "What did those pedestrians look like?"
“They look like merchants, but the sandstorms are so strong here that merchants familiar with the terrain don’t want to go this way. The sisters in charge of reconnaissance risked getting closer to take a look, and they looked too disheveled and didn’t seem to have much experience dealing with sandstorms. Besides… the people in the group are very disciplined, so they’re probably soldiers.”
Jianyang frowned and pondered for a moment: "Tear this place down! And do it quickly."
Fortunately, the traps had only just begun to be set up, and it would be easy to restore them.
The Red Eagle Army was well-trained and efficient; they quickly concealed all traces and retreated to the hillside to wait.
Before long, a small group approached from a distance.
These people were clearly responsible for exploring the environment, constantly making marks along the way, and would occasionally dismount to carefully observe the ground and sparse vegetation.
Jianyang held the telescope, examined it carefully for a moment, and said with certainty, "They are people from the Brown Kingdom."
They carried flags for communication, and their hand gestures were not those of the Dayong dynasty, thus making their identities quite clear.
Lieutenant Zhang's eyes lit up: "General, is there anything we can do?"
"It's not the right time yet. Let's find out their purpose first."
In the Hezheng Hall, Zheng Xun almost burst out laughing.
[Aunt Jianyang was clearly smitten, but she had to consider the bigger picture.]
I bet she's itching to get back to work right now.
Emperor: You know, that really is Jianyang's temperament.
In the light screen, the scouts stopped, and soon the main force caught up and set up camp nearby.
Deputy General Zhang asked疑惑地问道:“What are they planning to do?”
"We don't know for now."
We don't know now, but in a few days, we'll find out what this team is up to.
Jianyang and Deputy General Zhang were still lying down, trying to see what was happening below. It was still the same group of people from Hezheng Hall, each doing something with their hands, their eyes occasionally glancing at the sky.
Deputy General Zhang put down his telescope and rubbed his eyes: "No, are they setting a trap?"
"Ha!" Jianyang laughed. "They actually thought of the same thing as us."
"Tsk. It's not pleasant to have a great spot that you've carefully chosen snatched up by someone else."
Jianyang put his arm around her shoulder: "So, do you want to stir things up?"
Deputy General Zhang was stunned for a moment, then nodded frantically: "General, explain in detail."
Jianyang smiled slyly: "We'll do it like this..."
Deputy General Zhang excitedly leaned closer.
Everyone was eager to follow the light screen to uncover the secrets, but they didn't expect that the light screen's perspective would suddenly turn around the next moment.
At that moment, a chorus of boos erupted from inside the hall.
Liao Hongsheng scratched his head and said angrily, "It was intentional, it must have been intentional! Your Highness, you can't do this!"
Lord Jiang grabbed him and said warily, "You mustn't go and ask!"
Duan Yunfeng chuckled: "Let him go, let's see if the Emperor will punish him."
Liao Hongsheng touched the top of his head: "Your Highness is very wicked."
Tao Heng suddenly appeared out of nowhere, holding a booklet in his hand, and buried himself in writing: "In the nineteenth year of Zhaoyuan... Liao Hongsheng talked behind the scenes about how 'bad' the Crown Princess Yuanjia was."
Liao Hongsheng: ...
Beast!
How could there be such a beast as Tao Heng in the imperial court?
