Chapter 1320 The Messenger Disappears
Chapter 1320 The Messenger Disappears
Xiao Yanbao confirmed that the soldier had no major health problems and no contagious diseases.
However, Xiao Yanbao still explained the situation to the military doctors and left them with a lot of medicinal herbs and prescriptions for preventing the epidemic.
As long as this is done in advance, an uncontrollable epidemic will not occur.
The military doctors were filled with gratitude towards Xiao Yanbao.
Their little princess is so sweet.
Not only did they send them food, but they were also so thoughtful that they even considered the possibility of a major epidemic after a disaster.
They have been worried about the shortage of medicinal materials in the army. If an epidemic breaks out, it will make the situation worse.
This time, they don’t have to worry at all.
Liu Qi was even more impressed by little Yan Bao.
Now that Lan Country has a little princess, is there any need to worry about not becoming powerful?
"Little Princess, on behalf of all the soldiers in Pingkou Pass, I would like to thank you." Liu Qi said sincerely.
"General Liu, I should be the one who is thanking you. You have been stationed at the border all year round to protect the country of Lan. Whatever I do is my duty. I am so late and feel extremely ashamed."
Speaking of this, Xiao Yanbao remembered that General Liu said he had submitted an urgent report to the court, but his father had never told him about it.
The court certainly did not receive it.
Although Xiao Yanbao put the entire capital city into his Ruyi bag, he arranged a method to deliver memorials, especially urgent reports.
Xiao Yanbao arranged it personally, so there will definitely not be any mistakes.
Therefore, the urgent report from Pingkou Pass was not delivered. There must have been a problem somewhere.
"General Liu, how many urgent reports have you sent to the court?" Xiao Yanbao asked.
When this matter was mentioned, Liu Qi's expression became serious again.
"I have sent out eight urgent reports in total. Didn't the little princess come here after receiving my urgent report?" Liu Qi asked.
"I came from Fengjia Pass. There was an epidemic at Fengjia Pass, so I went there to deal with it. After that, I planned to inspect all the borders, and then I came to Pingkou Pass. The court did not receive your urgent report."
"What? You didn't receive it? I wrote eight letters in a row! If the little princess didn't come today, this ninth urgent message would have been sent out." Liu Qi said and picked up another sealed urgent message from the table.
Urgent reports are different from ordinary memorials.
Xiao Yanbao saw it at a glance.
Xiao Yanbao took the ninth urgent message in his hand.
I felt heavy in my heart. Fortunately, I arrived here first, otherwise I don’t know how long the soldiers and civilians here would have to suffer from hunger.
How many more people will die of hunger?
This matter must be thoroughly investigated.
"General Liu, have the soldiers sent out to deliver the urgent message returned?"
Liu Qi shook his head, "Not a single one came back."
But Liu Qi explained: "If there hadn't been a flood, the first wave of people who went to deliver the emergency report would have returned long ago. However, Lan Country is now flooded everywhere, and it's hard to say what mistakes or accidents may have occurred along the way. It's understandable that they returned late."
Although Liu Qi said this, he also had doubts in his heart.
Otherwise, he would not have written eight urgent reports in a row.
For the ninth urgent report, he planned not to send a soldier to deliver the message, but to send his own confidant.
It really is a matter of life and death.
Regardless of the refugees who come to escape, the food in the army can only last for three days at most.
It's the kind of porridge that has only a few grains of rice in it.
"Then you never doubted anything at all?" Xiao Yanbao asked.
Liu Qi: How could he not have any doubts at all? Otherwise he wouldn't have planned to send his confidant there in person.
Liu Qi nodded. "Little Princess, do you think someone hijacked the urgent report I sent out?"
"If you have any doubts, just check it out and you will know." Xiao Yanbao said.
Everything must be based on evidence.
"I will send someone to investigate right away." Liu Qi said.
Xiao Yanbao waved his hand and said, "I don't have that much time to waste here. I will check it myself and bring back the personal belongings of those messengers you sent out."
Liu Qi didn't understand what Xiao Yanbao meant by sending the message to the soldier's personal belongings.
But he still ordered someone to get it.
Not long after, the soldiers brought the eight messengers' personal belongings.
But what they brought was a bit hard to describe, except for stinky shoes and stinky socks.
Liu Qi's face darkened immediately. "I told you to take their personal belongings, but what did you get? Aren't you afraid of fuming the little princess? Don't you want your heads anymore?"
Several soldiers felt aggrieved. They didn't want to take these things, but they couldn't find any other personal items as the little princess mentioned.
Several soldiers knelt down and said, "Little princess, spare my life."
Xiao Yanbao: Since when did she start demanding people's heads at every turn?
He lifted up several soldiers with a wave of his hand. "I'm not a murderer, why would I need your heads? Besides, you didn't do anything wrong."
This thing is a bit smelly, but it is really useful.
This prevents the tracking symbol from not being able to recognize the smell.
Several soldiers felt as if they had survived a disaster and quickly withdrew.
Xiao Yanbao took out a tracking talisman from his Ruyi bag, wrapped it around a few smelly shoes and socks, and then threw it out.
The tracking symbol can't talk. If it could, it would definitely protest. This is really stinky.
Little Yanbao blocked his sense of smell when he smelled a bad odor.
She is very smart, hahaha.
This time, Xiao Yanbao did not follow the tracking talisman himself, but released the spirit pets in the Ruyi bag and let them follow.
This time, Liu Qi saw with his own eyes that Xiao Yanbao released the spirit pet from the Ruyi bag.
His eyes widened in shock.
The little princess's cloth bag is a treasure!
He finally knew where so much food came from.
After knowing that Xiao Yanbao's cloth bag was a treasure, Liu Qi no longer dared to look at Xiao Yanbao's Ruyi Bag.
He was afraid that Xiao Yanbao would misunderstand his intention to steal the cloth bag.
"Little Princess, can we find the whereabouts of those messengers in this way?" Liu Qi asked.
"Just wait, you'll know in a moment."
As soon as Xiao Yanbao finished speaking, the voice of her spirit pet came into her mind.
The first one to speak was Ruyi Money.
[Master, the messenger has been found, but he is dead.]
[So fast, where did you find it? ]
Since Ruyi Jinqian was able to find the messenger's body so quickly, it meant that the messenger was not far from the military camp.
Either they were killed on their way back, or they were killed not far from the military camp.
No, we can’t say for sure that she was murdered now. After all, she hasn’t confirmed it yet.
It could also be an accident.
"I've found a messenger. I'll take you to see him."
