0312: This Is A Once-In-A-Lifetime Opportunity.
The bright moon that is not round is gradually rising to the sky, and a transparent dark cloud faintly covers the moonlight.
Baihua Manor seems to be covered with a layer of veil, and the watery moonlight washes the soft autumn night.
A carriage stopped outside Baihua Manor, and Lian Xin stepped out of the carriage with snow-white legs.
She tightened the coat on her body, and walked straight into the wooden house without season with gentle steps.
"Tap Tat Tat..."
The fox-eared lady felt the warmth in the wooden house, so she took off her coat and leaned against the stove with her snow-white hands to keep warm.
She turned her head to look at the young man who came out of the study, and said coquettishly, "Master, I'm here again."
"It's so cold, do you wear more clothes?" Qiao Ji also came to the stove, holding Hu Erniang's little hand with her big hand.
"Of course." Lian Xin's pretty face flushed slightly.
"It just so happens that we are going to have barbecue tonight, let's have it together when you come." Fuji showed a gentle smile.
When Lian Xin heard the word barbecue, the ears of the furry fox twitched, and she happily replied, "Okay, it seems that it's just right to come tonight."
Sister Xin, go wash your hands, the ingredients for the barbecue are ready and ready to eat. "Xue Nai came out of the kitchen with a tray.
"No problem." Lian Xin agreed.
"Tat Tat Tat..."
Two minutes later, Hu Er Niang happily washed her hands and sat down at the dining table, Qiao Ji, Lei Nai and the others were already seated.
Lian Xin looked at the table of barbecued meat flicking the fox's tail non-stop, and said in surprise, "Wow...it looks delicious."
"It's the best weather to eat barbecue." Lei Naiye also rubbed his little hands expectantly.
Qiao Ji blinked his eyes slowly, seeing that the charcoal of the barbecue was not yet hot, and asked, "Lian Xin, what's the matter with coming here suddenly?"
Lian Xin looked away from the plates of meat, her expression became solemn, and she said, "My lord, information has been sent back from Pingdingshan Fortress."
"Could it be a war? Tell me." Qiao Ji sat up and asked.
Lei Nai held her pretty face in both hands and listened seriously, Xue Nai took advantage of the situation and brought three cups of steaming water.
Lian Xin took the boiling water and held it in her hands, then took out a letter from her bosom and handed it over, her pink lips parted slightly, the lord will know just by reading the letter. "
"Good" `. "Qiao Ji took the letter and browsed directly, her expression gradually becoming dignified.
The content of the letter said that the Green Barbarians attacked, the Pingdingshan Fortress fell, and the knights fled.
The young man raised his head slowly and said seriously, "I didn't expect that Pingdingshan Fortress fell directly, and such a big thing happened in one night.
Qiao Ji has heard more or less about the Pingdingshan Fortress, so he was a little surprised to hear that it fell.
"That's right, we're going to fight next." Lian Xin said with a heavy tone.
You must know that war is not a good thing, and war means that many people will be displaced.
Not everyone can win against the green barbarians. There was Pingdingshan Fortress holding them back before, but now that the fortress has fallen, who can pose a threat to them?
Qiao Ji thought for a while and smiled, handed the letter back, and said, "However, this is a good opportunity."
"Master, where do you start with this?" Lian Xin asked curiously.
"The importance of the Pingdingshan Fortress to the Golden Eagle Empire is self-evident. Next, the emperor will definitely recruit troops to the front line." Qiao Ji raised his bushy eyebrows slightly.
He paused for a moment, then continued, "At that time, I will most likely be sent to the battlefield, and this is my chance to make meritorious deeds.
"My lord is going too?" Lian Xin asked in surprise.
"There are tens of thousands of knights in Pingdingshan Fortress, and many of them probably died. The emperor is short of knights now." Qiao Ji explained slowly.
"That's right, but..." Lian Xin looked troubled.
She raised her head worriedly, and said with a little fear, "My lord, no one can tell what will happen on the battlefield, it is really too dangerous, can you... can you not go?"
Hu Erniang was a little worried about the safety of the young man. You must know that the green barbarians are not an ordinary race. It's weird to kill people one by one.
"I know, I will make all the preparations in advance to avoid accidents as much as possible." Qiao Ji rubbed Hu Erniang's head.
" Lei Nai was lost in thought at the side, her pretty face was full of worry, and she turned her head to look at Ji from time to time.
"Okay." Lian Xin could only choose to trust the boy.
"It's just very strange. Didn't it mean that Pingdingshan Fortress is easy to defend and difficult to attack? Why did it fall overnight?" Qiao Ji narrowed his eyes slightly and said.
"Maybe the green barbarians have some special means, or maybe a knight was bought?" Lian Xin said at the end and spread her hands.
"I think it's very likely that someone bought it." Qiao Ji couldn't think of a better possibility.
Lian Xin flicked her furry fox tail and muttered, "If it was really bought, it would be damned. If Pingdingshan Fortress falls, many villages and towns will suffer.
Qiao Ji thought for a while, looked at the door with heterochromatic pupils and shouted, Tian Ai Yu called to me.
"Yes." The knight outside the wooden house responded.

"Lu Lu Lu
Five minutes later, Ai Yu arrived late, and just entered the room to salute.
"Ai Yu, go to the major workshops and urge them to speed up the production of armor and first aid kits..." Qiao Ji ordered decisively.
It may take three days for the information from the front to reach the imperial capital. After all, not everyone has an eagle as a messenger.
Qiao Ji wants to take advantage of these few days to speed up the production of supplies needed for the war, so that the knights can fight a human battle without any worries.
"" Yes, my lord. "Ai Yu replied seriously, turned around and left the wooden house.
Qiao Ji took a sip of the hot water, looked up at Hu Er Niang and said, "Lian Xin, send someone to tell Eve, and say that the Pingdingshan Fortress has been occupied by the green barbarians."
"Understood, I'll let someone do it later." Lian Xin's curled eyelashes blinked slowly.
"Master, can you not go? War is too dangerous." Xue Nai looked at the boy worriedly.
Qiao Ji smiled slightly, rubbed Mao Erniang's head and said, "Don't worry, I will protect myself.
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity.
The boy doesn't know if he can take back the Pingdingshan Fortress, but judging by the current strength of Baihua Manor, it doesn't hurt to give it a try.
Anyway, there is still a hole card to save your life, if you really can't do it, just return it. It is not unfilial to miss the opportunity for nothing.
"The emperor must be very angry when he knows this. The Pingdingshan Fortress is very important to the Golden Eagle Empire."
Lian Xin stared at her chin with snow-white fingers, and guessed, "It is estimated that the emperor will send two princes."
"It should be." Qiao Ji said softly.
"By the way, my lord, I almost forgot about the eldest prince (Qian Nuozhao)."
Lian Xin tapped her smooth forehead lightly, blinked her orange eyes slowly and said, "In two days it will be time to meet your mistress, shall we still do it?"
"Naturally, it is necessary. There will be a war soon. Even if this matter becomes a big one, it's fine."
Qiao Ji waved his hand calmly, and continued, "We have an extra treasure, and we have an extra security on the battlefield."
"It's true, the eldest prince will definitely die of anger." Lian Xin couldn't help but covered her mouth and smiled.
"If he succeeds in two days, he will lose two treasures in a short period of time, so it's hard to guarantee that he won't jump over the wall in a hurry." Qiao Ji said in a deep voice.
"As long as he doesn't know we did it." Lian Xin said softly.
"You need to use a treasure on the battlefield, the prince will know sooner or later."
Qiao Ji analyzed, "Because the prince might start a war.
"I will protect the lord." Lei Nai immediately stood up.
"That's up to you." Qiao Ji smiled heartily.
