Although Deputy General Wang secretly hated Jiang Yunqi for hiding his identity from him, he really couldn't care about anything else at the moment.
Now, Deputy General Wang and Jiang Yunqi are tied to the same rope. If one move is pulled, the whole body will be moved. No matter how unhappy he is, he can only save the person first.
Deputy General Wang looked around at the soldiers and put on a righteous attitude, saying, "Although Jiang Yunqi was once a Song countryman, since he has already joined the Wu army, he is naturally a soldier of the Wu country. General Li cannot throw dirty water on the soldiers in the army at will, otherwise I, the deputy general, will be the first to disagree."
Jiang Yunqi's body slowly relaxed, and he thought to himself: Deputy General Wang is really an old fox. With just a few words, he brought all the soldiers present into the same camp.
General Li's dark eyes darkened slightly, and he just stared at Jiang Yunqi and said, "This general is not a person who doesn't know how to adapt. It's just that in order not to cause panic among the soldiers, only this general and a few of his confidants know about the theft of the granary. We haven't said a word to the outside world. I just don't know how Jiang Yunqi, a new soldier, got to know about it."
Obviously, General Li was no pushover. He directed everyone's attention to how Jiang Yunqi, a new recruit who had just joined the camp, knew about the theft of the granary.
Jiang Yunqi was not panicked at all about this, after all, he had a clear conscience.
Jiang Yunqi explained to everyone: "Just as Vice General Wang said, I asked for leave to go out and buy things, and I learned about this incident by accident when I heard someone talking about it."
General Li sneered, "What a lie! Apart from the imprisoned guards, only I and a few other generals know about this." He pointed at himself and a few of his confidants and said loudly, "Now that all of us who know about this are here, come and take a good look and identify who it was from."
All three granaries were stolen. This matter was so serious that General Li sent his personal guards out to look for the thieves, and he also used other excuses and reasons. Few people really knew the truth.
So Jiang Yunqi's words sounded like empty talk to General Li, and the more he listened, the more suspicious they became.
Jiang Yunqi took a look at the appearance of several generals, and cold sweat suddenly fell from his head.
It was because he did not notice the two people he met in the tavern, so who were those two men in the tavern
General Li really didn't look like he was going to lie, and there was no reason for him to lie.
But Jiang Yunqi couldn't figure out what went wrong no matter how hard he tried.
At this moment, Lieutenant General Wang also discovered that something was not right with the development of things. Why was the pace of everything following General Li's? This could not go on.
So Vice General Wang took over the conversation and said, "Why are you saying so many useless things? General Li, you admit that the granary was stolen, right? You made such a big mistake, so why don't you explain it to your brothers?"
General Li's face was covered with a layer of frost, and he said solemnly, "The granary was stolen because the guards did not guard it properly. As the commander, I did make a mistake, but I have tried my best to investigate the matter and make amends. I just don't know why Vice General Wang has been preventing me from questioning the suspicious people."
Vice General Wang was furious: "General Li, when you say this, it seems like it's still my fault?"
General Li had no expression on his face, but he said word by word: "Now I am the commander of the Thirteenth Army Camp."
He actually used his official position to oppress others.
Deputy General Wang swung his sleeves fiercely and said, "Let's wait and see. How long can you continue to be the commander after the higher-ups learn about this?"
General Li's face was a little green, but his tone was calm: "Then you, Deputy General Wang, don't bother."
He emphasized the word "deputy".
Deputy General Wang was so angry that his face turned red and white, and he couldn't utter a word for a long time. Finally, he flicked his sleeves and left in a rage.
The soldiers present were all silent as they listened to the argument between the commander and deputy commander, not daring to breathe. Jiang Yunqi was sweating profusely, and when he saw Deputy Commander Wang leave like that, he was so anxious that his eyelids were twitching.
Just when Jiang Yunqi wanted to follow Vice General Wang to leave, General Li pointed at him and said to the captain next to him: "Catch him and torture him severely."
Wan Yu immediately agreed loudly. The other soldiers looked at Jiang Yunqi with some sympathy and all fled away in shame.
When gods fight, the little devils suffer. They dare not stay, for fear of becoming the next Jiang Yunqi.
In an instant, the originally bustling entrance was left with only General Li, a few of his confidants, and Li Ruyi.
Only then did General Li look at his daughter with a cold face, "Come in with me."
Li Ruyi's heart skipped a beat. After the other soldiers left voluntarily, she walked into her father's yard with a bitter face.
As soon as she entered the door, she heard a stern "Kneel down" from above.
Li Ruyi bit her lips and fell to her knees.
General Li opened his eyes angrily, and the veins on his forehead bulged with every breath he took. "Tell me, what is your relationship with Jiang Yunqi? When did you meet? How did you know all those dirty things he did?"
He knew his daughter a little bit. Maybe because she was the youngest in the family, everyone spoiled her and made her look innocent and naive.
But he never expected that she would get involved with a soldier under her.
He saw clearly the way Jiang Yunqi looked at Ruyi just now, as well as Ruyi's love-hate look towards Jiang Yunqi, and he was so angry that the rage in his chest was boiling.
At this point, Li Ruyi no longer dared to hide the truth from her father.
"More than three months ago, someone stole my wallet when I was out..."
As Li Ruyi's voice became lower and lower, General Li's face became darker and darker.
If Jiang Yunqi was in front of him right now, he would have wanted to chop him into pieces. It was really audacious of him to deceive a girl and even trick his daughter.
General Li pointed at his daughter's nose, loving her deeply but scolding her harshly: "How foolish! Do you know why Jiang Yunqi was able to join our Wu army? It was because he personally killed two innocent merchants from Song and used their heads as a stepping stone. How can a person who will do anything to achieve his goal be a kind-hearted man? If you had asked me earlier why I was so prejudiced against him, you wouldn't have been coaxed into a secret marriage."
Li Ruyi's eyes trembled and tears suddenly wet her eyes. She never expected that there would be such a cause.
"My daughter knows she was wrong..." She really had liked Jiang Yunqi, and now she has really let it go.
Seeing this, how could General Li bear to continue blaming his daughter
So he turned around and vented all his anger and dissatisfaction on Jiang Yunqi.
