Qian Jiujiu was a little speechless, but Beibei was having fun, so she couldn't say anything, as that was just the nature of the child.
Mu Yexiao watched Beibei playing in the snow, rolling around in the snow, with a smile on his face, finding it very funny.
Qian Jiujiu ordered Qingyue: "Qingyue, go prepare some ginger soup and give everyone a bowl."
It's cold on a snowy day, so everyone should drink a bowl to avoid getting sick. As soon as the words fell, Beibei's scream was heard.
Everyone looked towards Bei Bei: "What's wrong?"
Qian Jiujiu was the first person to run to Beibei, and he saw a dead body lying where Beibei had pressed down the heavy snow.
Beibei also climbed out of the snow, frowned and looked at the corpse in front of him, a little depressed: "What's going on?"
When Bai Lie heard the sound just now, he ran over quickly and looked at the corpse in front of him with some surprise.
"Isn't this one of the unconscious soldiers who was carried back the day before yesterday? How come he died here today?"
Most of the soldiers who were carried back the day before yesterday had already woken up after returning.
Everyone thought they were fainted from exhaustion, so no one paid much attention to it. As a result, a body was found here today.
"Your Highness, I will go and find out what happened right now. Someone, please ask the coroner to come over and see how this person died."
Although the princess understood it very well, she was the princess and he didn't dare to bring it up.
Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao looked at each other, then looked towards the corpse, examined it carefully, and fell silent.
Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu with some confusion: "Why are you silent?"
Qian Jiujiu frowned: "This man, it seems that he was frozen to death."
Frozen to death? How could such a normal person come out of the house and freeze to death? This is obviously unreasonable.
Soon, Bai Lie brought people over and began to examine the body. Of course, the conclusion they came to was the same: the man had frozen to death.
Now everyone was confused as to why a healthy person would come out of the house and freeze to death in the snow.
Bai Lie looked at Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao: "My Lord, Princess, I will find out what is going on."
Soon, Bai Lie called over all the soldiers who lived in the same room with this man and asked, "Can you guys tell me what's going on?"
Several soldiers were a little bit unbelievable. The person who was chatting with them yesterday was found frozen to death today.
"To answer the general's question, everything was normal before I went to bed last night."
There were eighteen soldiers in this room, most of whom had fainted while digging tunnels in the mountains, and they were all placed together.
Because they were thought to be exhausted, they were given extra care and were not assigned any tasks, such as sweeping snow or standing guard.
Bai Lie asked around and got the same answer from everyone: the soldier who was frozen to death did not show any abnormality last night.
"Then you didn't notice when he disappeared?"
A soldier in a room shook his head: "No, we were probably too tired, so we all slept very deeply at night and didn't hear any sound at all."
Sleeping very deeply? I don't know if someone will move you away.
Bai Lie said: "Let me ask the soldiers on duty to see if they know or saw when this person came out."
This location is still some distance away from the room where they rest. How could this person be frozen to death here? It's really strange.
The soldier who was on duty last night soon appeared: "Greetings, Your Majesty, Princess, and General."
Bai Lie looked at them and asked, "Did you find anything wrong when you were on duty here last night?"
Several people looked at each other and then shook their heads: "My Lord, everything was normal last night."
Everything is normal? What's going on? When Qian Jiujiu was still wondering, he heard the rabbit's voice.
"He walked out on his own and froze to death."
He walked out and froze to death? In other words, it's no wonder that the examination didn't reveal anything wrong.
Qian Jiujiu looked at Bai Lie: "Bai Lie, I'll leave this matter to you, go and investigate it thoroughly."
Bai Lie nodded immediately: "Yes, I will investigate it thoroughly, please rest assured, Your Majesty and Princess."
After this incident, Beibei no longer had the heart to play in the snow: "Dad, Mom, it's so cold, let's eat hot pot."
Qian Jiujiu certainly couldn't bear to reject Bei Bei's proposal: "That's good, let Qingyue prepare it."
Beibei followed Qian Jiujiu happily and said, "Mom, are you really not going to care about the death?"
This is not like her parents' style.
Qian Jiujiu smiled and said, "This is Bai Lie's place. These soldiers should be under Bai Lie's jurisdiction. Now that someone has died, he will naturally investigate."
"Besides, it's normal for someone to die occasionally."
Beibei said, "Is it normal? I always feel that this person's death is not normal."
Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao looked at each other. Even Beibei saw it. What's more, they were just trying not to alert the enemy.
He patted Beibei's head and said, "Bai Lie will find out."
After the family had eaten hot pot, it was night. Everyone returned to their own rooms. Qian Jiujiu looked at Mu Yexiao and said, "How about going to check the situation tonight?"
Mu Yexiao smiled: "I knew you had other plans. What are you thinking?"
Qian Jiujiu thought about it and said to Mu Yexiao: "I guess it's hypnosis. Anyway, it's boring with the snow blocking the mountain, so I'll just play with him."
If it was really hypnosis, needless to say, no one would know who did it.
Bai Lie also made preparations. He instructed the people in that room to pay more attention to noise when they slept at night.
The soldiers on duty outside were also asked to pay special attention to see if anyone came out at night recently.
It was late at night, but Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao were walking in the space. As the space was like spring all year round, they didn't feel cold.
Seeing the soldiers outside shivering with cold, he couldn't help but shake his head with some sympathy.
Soon the two of them came to the room where the unconscious soldiers lived and waited: "I wonder if there will be any gains tonight?"
Mu Yexiao said with some amusement: "It doesn't matter if there is none. We have plenty of time anyway. Just wait slowly."
That's true. Qian Jiujiu nodded: "Okay."
However, both of them were lucky, so they wouldn't let their wait be in vain.
Just as I arrived at midnight, I saw the door of the room was opened. A soldier, dressed lightly, walked out.
There were still snowflakes floating in the sky. After the man came out, he began to lie on the ground, allowing the snowflakes to slowly accumulate on his body.
The soldier seemed to be unconscious, just lying quietly on the ground, waiting to be covered by the heavy snow tonight.
There was no sound in the entire room, and no one knew what had happened tonight.
Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao looked at each other and said, "Save them. I'm afraid something has happened to these people."
How did that man do it in such a short time? Qian Jiujiu was really curious.
Mu Yexiao deliberately made some noise, which alarmed the soldiers on guard that night, and they soon discovered the person lying here.
He walked up to him and hit him hard: "Get up, get up, what's wrong with you?"
As a result, I couldn't shout. Plus, a dead body was found during the day, and now this kind of thing happened again, so of course I was scared.
"What should we do? Should we just ignore it?"
Two people were discussing, and the other one looked at the one who said he didn't care and said, "How can we just ignore it? Let's carry it in first."
Someone spoke up, and naturally someone would speak up in this kind of environment, so they did as they were told, and the two men quickly took the man back to his room.
The door to the room was still open, and the two soldiers successfully sent the man back to the bed: "How do you think he got down there?"
"Instead of thinking about how he got down there, we should think about what happened to these people? They didn't wake up even though we made such a big noise."
As the soldier spoke, he kicked a few people, and sure enough, those lying on the beds looked like dead, with no reaction at all.
"Let's report this to the higher-ups. We still need to inform the general about this matter."
Bai Lie was soon woken up and quickly came to the agreed room.
After entering the room, he saw that these soldiers were still sleeping soundly. They didn't react at all. He couldn't help but frown and said, "Go call the military doctor."
The general is not stupid. He is already here and has made such a big noise, but he is still not awake. He will think he is sleeping, unless he is a fool.
The military doctor soon appeared and took the pulses of each of them one by one: "General, they are definitely asleep."
Bai Lie's expression changed: "Are you sure they are all asleep? Then why aren't they awake yet?"
The military doctor asked someone to bring a basin of cold water and started pouring water on each of them. Then these people finally woke up.
Just as he was about to get angry, he saw that it was Bai Lie, General Bai, and he immediately got up from the bed, knelt down and said, "Greetings, General."
Bai Lie's eyes were still unhappy, and he looked at the military doctor: "Take another look at them, are they really okay?"
Are you kidding me? How can so many people sleep so soundly at the same time? Moreover, these people are from the military camp, how could they not wake up after such a big commotion
The military doctor was also overwhelmed. It was impossible for the people in the barracks to sleep so soundly. They would just be waiting for the enemy to chop off their heads.
But no matter how he took their pulses, these people were in good health and he couldn't tell anything.
The military doctor was overwhelmed: "I can't tell, how about asking the princess to take a look?"
Just when people here were in trouble, people in Kyoto also received the news sent back by Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao.
This news was delivered directly to the emperor. After reading it, the emperor was silent. At the morning court the next day, he kept Gu Xiangning and Lin Zezhi.
"Look, this is the news sent back by King Bing Xiang."
