Tomorrow, he will learn how to carry the big flag from the soldiers.
Shao Shuting made his decision and shook his head. He still wasn’t willing to accept the fact that his vision was getting worse and worse. He hoped that Xue Wufu would work hard and carry the flag well. Otherwise, he really didn’t know what the military camp had in store left for this youth.
Shiye stood next to Shao Shuting, feeling a little sympathetic for his general. This was the first time his general had misjudged someone.
Just as he was racking his brains, thinking about whether he should say something to comfort their general, he saw Qiye rushing in again.
The last time they met was in Locust Village.
“Great general,” Shiye spoke respectfully.
Only then did Shao Shuting notice Qiye’s arrival. He left the drill ground and returned to the commander’s tent.
When they arrived at the main tent, Qiye did not dare to raise his voice. He first saluted before he lowered his voice and reported, “His Highness has left
Changyu. ”
Shao Shuting immediately frowned. “Why did he leave? Didn’t my brother say that he would personally do it?” he asked.
Qive replied, “His Highness has been targeted by the Ji family’s spy, so it wasn’t
ideal for him to stay in Changyu any longer. He’s already left Changyu and is pretending to look for someone in the South. He wants to use that spy to make the Ji family really think that he’s in Xinyuan County. His Highness said that this is called giving a person a taste of their own medicine.”
Back then, the Ji family had deliberately left behind some clues to have them come to Xinyuan County to look for him. Now, they couldn’t let the Ji family know that he was in Changyu, so they naturally went around in circles and came to Xinyuan County again. This stunned the Ji family and made them think that he was really in Xinyuan County.
Shao Shuting nodded his head. “So in the end, he will go to Xinyuan County?”
“Yes.” Qiye cupped his fists again. “He’ll probably arrive in a few days. His Highness plans to deal with that spy when he reaches Xinyuan County. By then, that spy will have already sent the news back to the Ji family and Consort Yi. Killing that spy will make the Ji family and Consort Yi more convinced of the situation.”
“Alright then. Then what about Changyu?”
“His Highness has already left some reliable people to continue the search in secret. They will secretly go from house to house and will not let a single place go. As long as the Crown Prince is really in Changyu, he will be found sooner or later.”
“My brother should have other plans, right? He can’t stay in Xinyuan forever.”
“His Highness plans to use himself as bait to make the Ji family and Consort Yi think that wherever he goes, the Crown Prince will be there. He will occasionally reveal his whereabouts to the Ji family and will not stay in
Xinyuan for long. When the Ji family has their eyes on him again, he will leave
Xinyuan County and go to other counties. In any case, they will all be in the
South.”
“I see.”
“His Highness also has a message for this subordinate.”
“What did he say?”
“He doesn’t believe that you’re so different from the two children, Xue Yan and
Jiang Yue. He mentioned them in your letter. This time, while he’s at Xinyuan County, he’ll personally experience it.”
It had rained heavily yesterday, so even though the sun was shining brightly today, the ground was still a little wet in the morning and mud would stick to their shoes. Therefore, in the morning, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan accompanied Li Hehua to make rice noodles in the workshop, and in the afternoon, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan came to the ground with Xue Dafu to dig potatoes.
Plowing was also fine to take it out of the ground. Although it was much faster than digging, the potatoes would also be more damaged with this method, so he did not choose to plow the potatoes.
Due to the heavy rain yesterday, the surface of the ground was dry and the inside was not as hard as before. It was easy to dig out the potatoes with a hoe.
Xue Dafu used a huge hoe to pick up a few potatoes. Jiang Yue and Xue Yan quickly picked them up and placed them in the basket..
