Chapter 695 I understand
Chapter 695 I understand
The troops led by General Lian Yi ambushed the enemy here.
Before setting off, Lian Yi looked at the map over and over again. She had already memorized it by heart and knew every route and every landmark very well.
There are several small paths in that place, some of which are not only rugged and difficult to travel on, but also easy to expose your whereabouts.
Lian Yi thought to himself that if he acted according to Nier's plan and failed to successfully ambush the enemy, all the responsibility would probably be blamed on Nier.
Thinking of this, Lian Yi had a barely perceptible sneer on his face.
Nier has always been smart and good at pleasing the general, but this time let her fall here and learn a lesson.
Ni'er watched Lian Yi preparing to lead the troops to set off. She felt that General Lian Yi was looking at her from time to time, and his eyes were cold. It seemed that she was not wrong. What did she do to offend him?
Ni'er was full of doubts. She really couldn't understand why Lian Yi behaved like this.
If Lian Yi really doesn't want to carry out this task, then she can choose not to take on this job!
After all, there are other people who also want to seize this good opportunity to make a contribution.
What is strange is that Lian Yi asked to go on his own initiative.
The more Nier thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
What went wrong?
This doubt is like a heavy cloud, hovering in my heart and lingering.
It makes people feel an inexplicable uneasiness, as if a storm is about to come.
Nier's thoughts gradually drifted back to the previous scene.
At that time, General Li suddenly asked her if she was willing to follow Lian Yi to carry out the mission.
This surprised Ni'er very much, because with General Li's personality, he usually would not take the initiative to make such a request.
After all, the princess would definitely not go, and she definitely would not want to take risks herself.
If I go, the princess will definitely follow me.
General Li has always taken good care of the princess, so how could he let her be in danger?
So, who came up with this idea?
Various possibilities kept flashing through Nier's mind, but in the end, her thoughts stayed on Lian Yi.
There was no time to lose, Ni'er was extremely anxious.
She hurried towards General Li's tent like the wind.
When Nier finally arrived at the tent door, she slowed down a little and calmed herself down.
Through the gap in the tent, she saw General Li talking with someone, seemingly discussing something important.
General Li's sharp eyes quickly noticed Ni'er's arrival. He quickly ended his conversation with others and then strode towards Ni'er.
General Li's originally relaxed and happy mood couldn't help but tighten his heart after seeing Ni'er's slightly worried expression.
"What's wrong? What do you want from me?" General Li's voice revealed a hint of concern.
Nier took a deep breath, then looked directly into General Li's eyes and asked, "Before, you asked me if I wanted to follow General Lian Yi. Was this Lian Yi's idea?"
General Li answered without hesitation, "Yes, she said she would take you with her so that we could be protected in case of any problems."
Ni'er's eyes sank slightly, and she thought to herself that Lian Yi was coming for her.
But I have never taken the initiative to provoke her, and I have hardly even had any contact with her.
General Li rarely saw Ni'er with such a serious expression. He was a little worried and asked quickly, "What's wrong?"
Ni'er slowly raised her head, and her eyes happened to meet General Li's.
There was a hint of concern in General Li's eyes.
Ni'er lowered her head a little embarrassedly and quickly explained: "It's okay, I just asked casually."
Her voice was slightly strained.
General Li raised the corner of his mouth slightly and chuckled twice from his throat, "You don't seem to be asking casually, and you even came to me specially."
"But if you don't want to tell me, that's fine. I won't force you."
After hearing what General Li said, Ni'er felt warm in her heart.
She gave a playful smile and said, "You're quite considerate! Then go and do your thing. I'm leaving now."
After saying that, Nier turned and left.
General Li looked at Ni'er's departing back and thought to himself.
He felt that Ni'er must have something on her mind, and this matter seemed to be related to Lian Yi.
However, General Li did not ask any further questions. He knew that Ni'er didn't want him to know, and perhaps she would confide in Wanwan.
Thinking of this, General Li had an idea in his mind.
He decided to go find Wanwan later and get some information from her.
After all, they have a good relationship, and Nier is likely to open her heart to Wanwan.
Moreover, maybe I don’t need to make any effort at all, Wanwan will tell me on her own initiative.
Nier returned to her tent and sat down on the edge of the bed. Her heart felt heavy, as if it was being pressed down by a huge rock.
Seeing Ni'er's sad look, the princess couldn't help but feel worried, and hurried to her side.
He asked with concern, "Nier, what's wrong with you? Who made you unhappy? Is it General Li? If he dares to bully you, I will go to him and settle the score, and I will definitely beat him up!"
Having said this, the princess made a gesture to go out.
Seeing this, Ni'er hurriedly reached out to stop the princess and explained, "No, Princess, don't misunderstand me, it's not General Li."
Seeing this, the princess stopped, turned around and sat back next to Ni'er.
He continued to ask, "What's going on? Tell me quickly. Look at you, you're driving me crazy!"
Nier hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the princess about her troubles.
She took a deep breath and said slowly: "I just feel that someone has ill intentions towards me."
"Who is it? We don't know anyone else here."
Nier frowned and said, "It's definitely not someone we know. It's Lian Yi."
After hearing this, the princess looked confused, as she had never heard of this person's name.
Her eyes widened and she asked curiously, "Lian Yi? Who is this? Why have I never heard of him?"
Nier slowly explained, "She's not just an ordinary soldier. She's also a general. And, she's the one leading the troops into battle today."
The princess suddenly realized that the person Ni'er was talking about was actually the female general.
"Oh, it's her! I've heard of such a female general before, but I didn't expect to hear her name here today."
However, a strange feeling welled up in the princess' heart.
After all, she had seen too much jealousy and competition for favor in the palace since she was a child.
Now, I can actually meet him outside the palace, which is really surprising.
"I see."
Ni'er was puzzled, so she asked, "What do you know? I haven't said anything yet."
