After Nangong Jue gave the order to find the girl's whereabouts, the three of them immediately rode their horses to the military camp in the south of the city.

Since it was already dinner time, the entire army had gathered around a large pot. There were some vegetables and meat pieces placed on the side of the pot.

[What the heck, is he actually eating hotpot?] Mo Yunfei sighed secretly.

When the three of them were walking into the military camp, someone had already gone to report to them.

Not long after, Mo Yunfei saw Vice General Zhang and the red-faced bearded man rushing over.

It was quite funny. The armors on the two of them were open and messy. Their faces were red and their mouths were shiny.

He ran towards them while patting his clothes.

Seeing Nangong Jue's expressionless face, Mo Yunfei was quite surprised to see Liu steel-like expression on Liu Yun's face as he walked forward.

He thought that people like Nangong Jue, who had a high position and was rigid and dull for a long time, should hate and abhor such a situation. However, he did not seem to care about Nangong Jue. Instead, he was interested in other things besides Nangong Jue's appearance.

On the other hand, Nangong Yu was frowning slightly. A strange glow flashed in his eyes. Even his footsteps were a little slow as he fell a little behind Nangong Jue.

Heh … This was a clear contrast, Mo Yunfei thought to himself. Speaking of which, he was extremely disgusted with the sloppiness, but it was not a small matter and Mo Yunfei was quite happy about it.

Speaking of which, due to the fact that his big brother was a general, he had come to the military camp quite a bit. It was a common thing to watch them train, to sit and eat with them, to drink and talk.

These men were all iron-blooded soldiers. They were very crude and careless, making him sometimes want to join the military camp and train with them. When that time came, he would go up and kill the enemy.

It was a pity that no matter what happened, his brother would not agree. He said that he was weak and could not take the hardships of the situation. In short, he was not allowed to do it.

Just as Mo Yunfei was thinking about those things, Vice General Zhang and the bearded man already ran up to him. Just as they were about to kneel on one knee, Nangong Jue spoke first.

"No need to bow."

Hearing that, Vice General Zhang and the bearded man immediately froze. The two of them looked at each other, forcefully retracting their actions, and only cupped their fists towards Nangong Jue.

Nangong Jue nodded and the two of them led the three into the camp.

Vice General Zhang looked at the improper shouting in the military camp. He rubbed his nose in embarrassment and explained with a smile, "Because we just won the war, we will be given a special prize by the emperor. We will have a celebratory feast in the military camp." "So …"

"No worries," Nangong Jue reached out his hand to stop Vice General Zhang from speaking. Then he said, "Let's take advantage of this opportunity. Let's join in the fun as well."

"Seventh Prince, please …" As he said this, a glint of joy flashed across Vice General Zhang's eyes. He then made a inviting gesture, allowing Nangong Jue to take the seat of honor.

Meanwhile, Nangong Yu sat right next to Nangong Jue.

As for Mo Yunfei, when Nangong Jue looked around, he was already sitting cross-legged on the ground among a group of soldiers not far away. With a big bowl in his hand, he had started to drink with the people beside him.

Nangong Jue looked at Mo Yunfei in a novel manner before retracting his gaze.

"Your Royal Highness, this general wishes to toast you …"

Hearing that, Nangong Jue immediately raised his wine bowl and looked at the person. It was the bearded man who spoke. Nangong Jue pondered for a moment. He remembered that this person's name was Pang Yu, and he was one of Mo Yunlong's subordinate generals. His position was only below Mo Yunlong.

"General Pang, please …" As Nangong Jue spoke, he pushed the wine bowl forward, signalling for them to drink up the wine in the bowl.

Although the wine in the military camp was not as good as the wine in the palace and was very spicy, Nangong Jue still felt that it was a type of flavor.

Other than Nangong Yu, who didn't drink much, everyone else drank until their faces turned red and neck became thick.

"Speaking of which, Vice General Zhang, General Pang, do you two remember the details of the night that Yun Long was poisoned?" Nangong Jue found an opportunity and asked the two who were already drunk.

"Ugh …"

But seeing Vice General Zhang's figure sway, he turned towards Nangong Jue, cupped his fists, and said with his tongue hanging out: "Reporting to Your Highness, that night when This General was sleeping in the tent, I heard someone shout 'Capture the Assassin', and then immediately afterwards, this general took his weapon and ran out of the tent. Then he heard the report that General Mo had been poisoned.

Hearing this, the general immediately headed towards the main account. General Mo had his eyes closed and his face was purple. After that, I remembered the Heart Protecting Pill that Young Master Mo had given me and immediately put it into my military uniform.

Later, the general asked the soldiers who were guarding the general's tent. When they heard the commotion in the tent, they immediately rushed in. However, he only saw a black shadow slip out through a hole at the back of the tent. He split up and some people went out to chase him while the rest looked after General Mo until the general went up.

As for that assassin, I've searched the entire base but haven't found him. "

"Oh?" Nangong Jue's eyes narrowed when he heard that. From the looks of it, the murderer's plan was quite thorough. He had already felt that something was amiss. This way, if the murderer had entered a place devoid of people in this heavily guarded military camp, then there must be a spy.

Thinking of this, a hint of coldness flashed across Nangong Jue's phoenix eyes. Then, he looked at Vice General Zhang and continued, "Then, before and after this matter, have you discovered anything unusual?"

"Inappropriate?" Vice General Zhang held the wine jar and shook his head, "So, not long before General Mo was poisoned, we saved a woman on the way."

"Oh?" When Nangong Jue heard this, he immediately moved forward. With a focused gaze, he looked at Vice General Zhang and said, "Tell me the details."

"This humble general remembers that the woman, dressed in coarse clothes and with her face covered, was lying in the middle of the road. When General Mo saw this, he immediately got off his horse and ordered the military doctor to check the woman's symptoms. The surgeon said only that he had been shocked and had suffered minor injuries. After that, the young lady woke up and gave the young lady some medicine and bandages, and we continued on our way. "

"Then, what does that woman look like?" Nangong Jue's eyes flashed as he asked.

Seeing that, Vice General Zhang found it difficult to say anything. He stuttered and said, "Reporting to Your Highness, that woman's face had a purple-black birthmark that covered half of her face. Moreover, that face was filled with dirt. So, if you are talking about the appearance of that woman, I am truly unable to reply! "

"Is that so …" Nangong Jue only nodded his head and continued to drink with Vice General Zhang and the rest.

Previously, he had met a woman, and the person who had poisoned her was also a woman, as Mo Yunfei had said. Then, could it be the same person? Nangong Jue thought.

After drinking with the crowd for a while, Nangong Jue and the others got up and said their goodbyes.

However, Mo Yunfei, already drunk unconscious, hugged Nangong Jue without letting go. It was impossible, Nangong Jue had no choice but to ride the same horse with Mo Yunfei and bring him back to Seventh Prince's Estate.
