The soldiers immediately took action. They stripped the man in black naked and checked his body and clothes.

The soldier who was checking the clothes reported, “General, I found a dagger and a letter.”

Tang Jinghong took the letter and read it. The letter recorded what the man had done from morning to night for the past three days. It was very detailed.

There must be many more people secretly spying on him.

The soldier who was checking the man’s body came over and reported, “General, there’s a copper coin tattooed on the inside of his forearm.”

Tang Jinghong looked up. The tattoo was lifelike, as if a copper coin had been branded there.

After staring at the copper coin for a while, he suddenly remembered something.

This copper coin symbol belonged to the secret guards of the king of the neighboring country, An Huai Kingdom. It was very confidential, but he had seen it once.

An Huai Kingdom was not only a neighboring country, but also a tributary country of the Daliang Dynasty. Ever since the new king ascended the throne, they had been making small moves. He did not expect that they had even planted spies around him.

The Lord of the Northern Borderline probably didn’t know that spies had already infiltrated his camp.

Or could it be he already knew it and was actually colliding with An Huai Kingdom?

“Are you a secret guard of An Huai Kingdom?”

Bright red blood flowed from the man in black’s clenched fingers. “Yes.”

All the soldiers were shocked. What followed was endless admiration for Tang Jinghong. He could even get such a secret out of the man in black!

“What’s your goal?”

“My original goal was to find an opportunity to incite Yin Yuping to defect, but after gaining his trust, he actually sent me to spy on you.”

The soldiers were dumbfounded.

This secret guard was too unprincipled and yielding. They had yet to extort a confession through torture, but he had already laid bare all his secrets. If their king knew, would he be angered to death?

“Instigate Yin Yuping to defect? Why don’t you work with the Lord of the Northern Borderline directly?”

“That old fart didn’t accept our king’s invitation to cooperate at all. That’s why we changed to instigating his subordinates.”

“Did you succeed?”

“Yin Yuping’s attitude is ambiguous. He took a lot of good things from our king, but he still seems unsatisfied.”

“How many secret guards has your king planted in the Dating Dynasty?”

“A lot. They’re everywhere, but we’re independent of each other and won’t contact each other.”

“Is your king planning to stop being a tributary country of the Daling Dynasty?”

“Yes, our An Huai Kingdom is a large country to begin with. We were beaten up by you and have been paying tribute to your emperor for decades. It’s time to stop it.”

“What secret plan does your king have?”

“I’m just a guard. How would I know the king’s plan?!”

“What secret plan does the Lord of the Northern Borderline have?”

“I don’t know.”

“What is Yin Yuping’s weakness?”

“That prick likes gold, silver, and jewelry. His eyes light up when he sees gold. His vault is built in the secret room under his room. He has embezzled a lot over the years.”

He even knows this. It seems like Yin Yuping really trusts this person, Tang Jinghong thought to himself. He stared at the man in black. “Who is Yin Yuping interacting with the most?”

The man in black’s fingertips already stuck into his palm, but he still could not control his mouth. “I don’t know.”

Tang Jinghong asked some more questions, but the man in black only answered that he didn’t know.

It seems like he’s no longer useful… Tang Jinghong instructed in a low voice, “Get rid of him.”

“Yes, General.”

Tang Jinghong threw the letter into the brazier and burned it before returning to the main tent.

Chu Qingzhi made the bed. “Where do you want to sleep tonight?”

Tang Jinghong stared at the woman who was looking at him with a gentle smile and felt sweet inside. “You sleep on the bed. I’ll keep watch outside.”

Chu Qingzhi’s heart ached. “Will it be too tiring for you?”

Tang Jinghong didn’t mind and said very naturally, “I’m already used to being alert at all times even if I’m sleeping. It’s fine.”

Chu Qingzhi took her bag over, opened it, and took out a small box. “This is the snack I prepared for you. Try it.”

Tang Jinghong wanted to say that he didn’t eat snacks, but looking at Chu Qingzhi’s clear and bright eyes, he couldn’t bring himself to reject her.

He took the box in her hand. “What is this?”

Chu Qingzhi took out a piece and fed it to Tang Jinghong. At the same time, she explained, “This is called biscuit. I’ve been making it for many days. I’ve always wanted to give it to you, but 1 didn’t have the chance.”

Tang Jinghong liked sweets, so the biscuits captivated him. “It’s delicious and fragrant.”

Chu Qingzhi pointed at the box. “It’s all yours.”

Tang Jinghong smiled. “Go to sleep. I’ll eat outside.”

“Ok.”

There was a stone block outside the tent. Tang Jinghong sat on it.

Fang Zerong walked over. “General, is Miss Chu asleep?”

Tang Jinghong nodded. “She’s asleep. Keep your voice low.”

Fang Zerong sat down next to Tang Jinghong. He complained, “General, you value your girlfriend over your friends.”

Tang Jinghong’s voice was low as he said unhurriedly, “Actually, I’ve always valued my girlfriend over friends. It’s just that I didn’t have a girlfriend in the past, so you didn’t know.”

Fang Zerong was speechless.

“General, what are you eating?”

“Biscuits Qingzhi made for me,” Tang Jinghong said smugly. Anyone could tell that he was showing off.

“Wow!” Fang Zerong turned around in disbelief. “General, do you know that you’ve changed?”

Tang Jinghong didn’t answer. He took out a biscuit and waved it in front of Fang Zerong. “These biscuits are especially delicious, and it’s not something you can buy with money. 1’11 let you look at it to satisfy your craving.”

Fang Zerong was speechless.

He regretted coming to talk to Tang Jinghong. He stared at Tang Jinghong for a while before getting up and leaving.

The corners of Tang Jinghong’s mouth curled up slightly and he was obviously in a good mood.

Chu Qingzhi, who was in the tent, could not help but smile and think to herself that Jinghong also had a cute side.

The sun in the sky was covered by a few bright red clouds. The sunlight shone down from the gaps in the clouds like countless golden waterfalls.

Before dawn, they started to march.

Under the morning glow, thousands of soldiers marched quickly towards the northwest.

After marching for about two hours, the sky was bright. At this moment, a child’s cry could be heard clearly. As she cried, she shouted, “Grandpa, Grandpa, wake up…”

Tang Jinghong raised his hand to signal for the troops to slow down.

After turning a corner, everyone saw an old man lying on the side of the road. Beside him was a five or six-year-old girl squatting and crying.

That cry was very heart-breaking. Those who heard it could not help but feel sympathetic..
