"Brother will definitely find those people." He will definitely find out the person who wants to kill Xi'er, and he will definitely cut that person into pieces.

"Well, Xi'er believes in brother." She looked at the cruelty in her brother's eyes, and suddenly remembered a saying, if a person behaves more like a gentleman, then from another perspective, this person is also the most terrifying person. Fortunately, he He was her brother, not her enemy.

Bai Yujie smiled lovingly and reached out to gently stroke Bai Xi's head. This was his habit, but this habit was only for Bai Xi.

After spending nearly two hours, Bai Xi finally arrived at the military camp where he was looking forward to a night.

"Xi'er, this is one of the military camps of our Bai family army. If Xi'er still wants to come in the future, my brother can give you a token. As long as you want to come, no one will dare to stop you." Bai Yujie looked at Bai Xi's shiny eyes. Eyes spoke slowly.

"Thank you, brother." If there is something here that attracts her, maybe she can consider coming here more often.

Next, Bai Xi learned more about the reborn Bai family from Bai Yujie. It turned out that the Bai family not only held a nationally important position in the court, but also held one-third of the entire Xiyue Kingdom in terms of military power. Military power has always been an object of fear for successive emperors. However, the Bai family has always been loyal to the court and has never had any intention of rebellion. In addition, Bai Chongyuan took the initiative to hand over all the military power in his hands to prove his loyalty, which made the late emperor disappear. In order to get rid of the fear of the Bai family, although the late emperor did not take back the military power of the Bai family, Bai Chongyuan still resigned from his official position and retired to his family. This was the real purpose of Bai Chongyuan's resignation, to preserve the Bai family.

"Brother, I want to see the firearms in the military camp, is that okay?" In fact, this was the real purpose of her coming to the military camp, which was to see the ancient cannons with her own eyes.

Bai Yujie was about to speak when a voice suddenly shouted from behind him, "Stop!"

Bai Xi turned around slightly and looked at what was happening behind her. She would not think that the stop was meant for her. Who in the Bai family army's camp dared to yell at the Bai family, and was the leader of the Bai family army? Who has the guts, not to mention that this is still the era of imperial power, unless that person is a lunatic.

Bai Xi only saw three men dressed as soldiers and a man dressed as a general chasing one man, and that man was also wearing a soldier's uniform. The chase did not take too long, and the man was already restrained. The man in the general's military uniform also noticed them at this time. He looked respectful and saluted very respectfully, "See you, general!"

"What happened?" Bai Yujie always looked gentle and elegant no matter what time or place he was, except for one thing, that is, when Bai Xi's life was threatened, he would be the real one at that time. he.

Bai Xi suddenly raised the corners of her mouth slightly. She really wanted to see her brother on the battlefield. In fact, what she wanted to see was how a gentleman killed the enemy

"Go back to the general, my subordinates and others are catching deserters."

After Bai Yujie took one look at the deserter, he asked nonchalantly, "Deserter? Can you ask for the specific situation?"

The general lowered his head and said nothing. It was obvious that he did not understand the situation.

"Find it out and spare his life if there is a reason. Also, the Bai family army never forces anyone." Bai Yujie ordered calmly.

"Yes, I obey!"

Just when the soldiers were about to escort the deserter away, Bai Xi, who had been watching from the side, deliberately lowered his voice and said slowly, "Wait a minute."

After finishing speaking, Bai Xi moved to the deserter while everyone was stunned. His eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts were staring straight at the man who was restrained and unable to move. The next moment, Bai Xi's face A faint smile appeared on his plain face.

"what's your name?"

The man didn't seem to expect Bai Xi to ask him suddenly. He was startled for a moment, and then answered, "Zhong Zhichao."

"age?"

"Twenty to five."

"Where are you from?"

"People from the capital."

"Do you have any relatives at home?"

"I am the eldest son. He has an elderly father, two younger brothers, and a younger sister. The younger brothers are all married. My younger sister also got married last year. My mother died of illness two years ago. Today is her death anniversary. .”

"You want to go to pay homage to your mother?"

"yes."

"Did you go to pay your respects to your mother's grave on this day last year?"

"have."

"Is this how you escaped?"

"yes."

"You don't have a wife?"

"yes."

"What's your military age?"

"Three years."

"Position?"

“…”

"What kind of soldier do you want to serve as?"

"Archer."

Bai Xi asked the question again. The man's answers were exactly the same, without any difference. The general on the side was a little confused. Who is this man who suddenly appeared? And he actually asked some trivial matters; Bai Yujie pursed his lips and looked at the so-called deserter, quietly listening to the conversation of questions and answers.

"Well, I know the information by heart quite well. It's just that you were unlucky today and bumped into me. I'm really sorry that your escape plan failed." After saying this, Bai Xi stretched out his hand and directly touched the man's face. The human skin mask was torn off, revealing the true face inside.

In fact, she suspected the deserter because she found that the deserter's expression was a little weird, his expression was a little stiff, and it was not natural. It was precisely because of this that she would close the distance and look at it carefully. Unexpectedly, she was actually attracted by it. I was right, he was indeed wearing a mask.

She asked those questions just to see the changes in the expression on that face, but she also became more sure of her thoughts from those answers. The answers were simple and clear, but definitely not like the way a soldier should answer in front of a general. Tone.

Except for Bai Yujie, the three people stared blankly at the man who revealed his true face. When the man saw what had happened, he did not intend to run away. Instead, he directly planned to bite his tongue and commit suicide. However, a second before he committed suicide, a stone was thrown by Bai Yujie. Acupuncture points are given.

"check."

"Yes." After the general received the order, he directly took Xizuo away for strict investigation. However, when he left, he did not forget to glance at Bai Xi and give him a look of thanks before leaving.

"Brother, don't you go and see if any secrets in the military have been stolen?" She felt that her brother was not worried at all about any secrets in the military being stolen or leaked.

"There's nothing they want here." Bai Yujie said slowly.

"Hey, brother knows who the other person is?" It turns out that it's not that brother is not worried, but that he has never been worried at all.

"Yeah, I can guess it."

"Did my brother know that person's identity early on?"
