Chapter 481: After a Woman Disguised as a Man is Exposed 12

"You are talking about my sister, right? I have not been home to see her since I joined the army. I am a brother and I have failed in my duty. I should go back to the village to see her when the army returns to camp."

This was the explanation she and the general had agreed on early on. Even if Lord Shao went to the village to ask, he would get the same answer.

"Oh, Guard Chu, do you know that your so-called sister disappeared long before you joined the army?"

"How could it be?" Chu Yuan was a former movie queen, and she acted the look of disbelief so vividly that no one could tell anything from her expression.

"Shao has always believed that Guard Chu is a smart man, so there is no need to struggle anymore. Do you really want me to bring the witnesses to General Wei and confront you two in court?"

It's just that he speaks loudly, everyone can do that.

"Master Shao, please think twice before you act. Now is the critical period of the battle between the two armies. General Wei is busy with many things. Why bother him with such a small matter?"

When this was mentioned, Shao Yunmu's expression suddenly changed: "Oh, if it weren't for this, do you think I would appear in the teahouse instead of the Duwei Mansion or the Yin Dynasty tent?

You disguised yourself as a man and sneaked into the military camp, committing crimes and deceiving the emperor. Wei Xuliang concealed your identity out of selfishness, so he is actually responsible for shielding you.

If I hadn't considered that this was a critical period of the battle between the two armies and that I couldn't shake the morale of the army, I would have announced this matter to the world long ago, and then sent a secret letter back to the city, asking His Majesty to punish you."

Hmm? Wait, from what Shao Yunmu said, he wasn't going to report me?

Chu Yuan paused, and quietly took back the medicine powder that she had intended to put into Shao Yunmu's tea: "What do you mean, sir?"

Perhaps realizing that he had lost his composure, Shao Yunmu remained silent for a moment and adjusted his mood:

"I told you that I came here today on a private basis. I can pretend that I don't know that you are disguised as a man, but you must answer my questions truthfully. During the time you followed General Wei, did you find that he had privately communicated with the court? For example... a certain prince in the court."

This is really a big hat. A general who holds military power has private dealings with the princes in the court. To put it in a serious way, he may be related to treason.

"No," Chu Yuan hesitated for a moment after saying this: "At least not during the time I was accompanying the general."

"Chu Yuan, Guard Chu, you should know that if it were just an unfounded guess, I would not have rashly asked you to come here."

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was very heavy. It was because Chu Yuan knew that without any evidence, Shao Yunmu would not risk coming to her, so she was speechless.

After a moment of silence, Chu Yuan finally seemed to have made up his mind: "What I just said is the truth, I really have never seen the general communicate with anyone privately.

Although I am nominally the general's personal guard, I am not always by his side. For example, now, the general sympathizes with my hard work and often grants me extra rest time. As for what he does during this time, I don't know. "

Now thinking back to what happened in the past few days, Chu Yuan did have doubts in his heart.

Shao Yunmu grasped Chu Yuan's mentality and said, "The border generals are secretly colluding with the princes in the court. I believe I don't need to say much about the seriousness of this matter. Guard Chu, I think you should know how to choose."

Chu Yuan certainly knew that he was trying to instigate him to become a chess piece placed next to General Wei.

However, what Shao Yunmu said was very right. The secret collusion between the frontier generals and the princes in the court meant disrupting the court order and meant treason and rebellion.

Chu Yuan never thought of herself as a so-called General Wei's man, or in other words, she would not favor anyone. She only did things that she thought were beneficial to the people. This was also one of the original owner's wishes.

The original owner's wish mentioned serving the country. The words country and family are inseparable. Only when the people's lives are good can the country prosper.

"Can I know which prince is secretly in contact with General Wei?"

Shao Yunmu did not hide it from her. It was not convenient to say such things openly, but he dipped his index finger in the tea in the cup, wrote the word "three" on the table, and then quickly wiped it off.

The third prince is not a wise monarch.

"I will keep an eye on this matter and notify you when there is any news." After saying that, Chu Yuan got up and left.

Shao Yunmu knew that he had not misjudged the person. The guard Chu beside General Wei had a ulterior motive, and a small title of guard could not trap her.

Of course, he also understood the principle of trusting the people he employed. After Chu Yuan walked out of the teahouse, the people who were following and monitoring him disappeared automatically.

The meeting between the two today will not be known to anyone.

After coming out of the teahouse, Chu Yuan had two more bags of dim sum in her hands. In order not to arouse General Wei's suspicion, she even took a detour and bought a similar portion from a famous dim sum shop in Weicheng City.

Sure enough, when General Wei returned to the Duwei Mansion, the first thing he said to her was: "I heard you went to the teahouse today?"

Chu Yuan said excitedly, "Yes, General. I heard from the local people that the best snacks in Weicheng City are the lotus cakes in the teahouse and the chestnut flour cakes in Shunxiangzhai. I also bought two and they are really delicious."

As she spoke, she placed two oil-paper packages on the general's desk: "These are for you, General. You often handle military affairs until late at night. You can take them out to fill your stomach when you are hungry."

"I'm sorry you missed it. Just put it aside. I'll eat it when I'm free."

Chu Yuan always appeared to be a naive yet loyal girl in front of General Wei. The fact that she made a special trip to the teahouse to buy cakes was consistent with her personality. In this way, General Wei should have dispelled his doubts.

"Okay, the affairs in Weicheng City have been dealt with. This general plans to lead the army back to the camp in two days. During these two days, you should follow Deputy General Deng to count the troops stationed outside the city."

"Yes." Chu Yuan took the order and left.

If it were in the past, Chu Yuan would have only thought that the general was really good at ordering people around and making her do the work of several people alone.

But now, General Wei's behavior was clearly an excuse to get her away.

Chu Yuan had to obey the general's orders, but who said that she couldn't keep an eye on the general's every move just because she was not here?

It's time to let these ancient people see the power of technology.

While the general was away from the study, a pinhole camera equipped with a large-capacity battery was installed on the roof of the study, facing the desk where the general worked every day. Chu Yuan could see every word on it clearly.
