Chapter 258: T-shaped camp?
"Coming out so soon?"
As Zhu Mingcai walked out of the military camp, a charming voice came over.
He looked up and saw Xu Miaojin holding Mu Ruanjun's hand and walking towards him with a smile.
"Yeah, it's out."
Zhu Ming sighed helplessly. Zhu Di was so drunk that it was impossible to get any information out of him, but it came out anyway, didn't it?
"Then we can only trouble our little prince to accompany us for a walk."
Mu Ruanjun looked at Zhu Ming and gave a wicked smile.
They have come all the way to the military camp, they can't just turn back like this.
"How about it?"
Xu Miaojin just looked at Zhu Ming from the side and asked with a chuckle.
"What else can I do? I will sacrifice my life to accompany the beauty today."
Zhu Ming spread his hands, shook his head helplessly, turned around and walked back to the military camp.
Zhu Ming was a prince and had helped the army raise funds for military pay, so he was indebted to them and the people in the barracks did not dare to stop him.
Zhu Ming took Xu Miaojin and Mu Ruanjun to stroll around the military camp.
Anyone who saw them would also respectfully address them as "Your Highness."
Xu Miaojin and Mu Ruanjun were both daughters of generals, and they had long been longing for the scenes in the military camp.
Looking around excitedly, if Xu Miaojin hadn't been held by Mu Ruanjun, she would have jumped away to who knows where.
Zhu Ming could only follow Xu Miaojin, who seemed to have inexhaustible energy. He was already tired, while the two girls in front of him still looked like they were just warming up.
"Is this what it feels like to be shopped by a girl?"
This is probably what it was like for a man who accompanied a girl shopping in his previous life.
Zhu Ming complained quietly, and seeing that the distance between him and Xu Miaojin and the others was widening again, he could only catch up helplessly.
"Hey, did you hear that?"
In addition to the soldiers who were doing daily patrols and training, there were also people wearing officers' and soldiers' uniforms and chatting.
Three or five people gathered together, muttering to each other.
This aroused the interest of Xu Miaojin, who had been somewhat uninterested, and he moved closer.
"Several brothers from the Dingzi Battalion were recently ordered to go out, and there has been no news since then."
Those people were so absorbed in their gossip that they were completely unaware of the approach of Xu Miaojin and the others. They lowered their voices and spoke carefully.
Zhu Ming was listening behind them. When he heard that there was no more news after someone left the military camp, he also became serious.
"No news?"
The person who heard the gossip was also aroused by curiosity and started asking in a low voice.
"Yeah, no one knows what they did."
When the man talked about this, he also had a mysterious look on his face, and beckoned to the person who asked the question, asking him to come closer.
"It is said that it is related to the affairs of the imperial court."
After the man finished speaking, he warned: "Don't tell anyone else about this."
"When did the people from the T-camp you mentioned disappear?"
Seeing that these people could not come up with any other gossip, Zhu Ming had no choice but to speak again and ask.
When these soldiers who were lazy and gossiping heard Zhu Ming's voice, they turned around stiffly. After seeing Zhu Ming's appearance clearly, they immediately knelt down and said, "Your Highness, the Imperial Grandson!"
They were lazing around and chatting in the barracks, and all the soldiers turned a blind eye.
But if Zhu Ming and his people saw it and wanted to investigate, they would inevitably be beaten with military sticks.
"Get up, I won't punish you."
Zhu Ming asked them to stand up impatiently. He had no interest in punishing these people.
All he wanted to know was the whereabouts of the soldiers from the missing T-Battalion.
"When did the people from the T-camp you mentioned disappearing happen?"
Zhu Ming repeated the question again.
"It was... a few days ago. Oh, that's the day when the young prince ordered the execution of Wang Ganju."
Under Zhu Ming's pressure, the soldier tried hard to think about the time when he first heard the news.
Looking at Zhu Ming, I remembered that it was the day when Zhu Ming supervised the execution of Wang Ganju.
"The day when Wang Ganju was beheaded?"
When Zhu Ming heard the time, he became even more suspicious.
If the news had spread on that day, it would mean that the people from the T-camp had left the barracks before that day.
This way, the timing will probably be right.
"Have you thought of something?"
Seeing Zhu Ming's serious look, Xu Miaojin realized something and asked cautiously.
Ever since Zhu Ming suddenly said he was going to Shanxi to provide disaster relief, it seemed as if he had been hiding something from her.
"Ah."
Zhu Ming nodded and glared at the soldier again: "Just pretend you never told me about this matter. It doesn't matter who asks."
"Yes Yes!"
The soldier thought he couldn't escape the punishment, but he didn't expect that Zhu Ming just asked him to keep the secret. He nodded repeatedly and retreated as if he was afraid that Zhu Ming would change his mind.
"What's going on outside?"
Zhu Di had just finished discussing future plans with Yao Guangxiao when he heard a series of noises outside the door. He immediately frowned and asked.
"It was the young prince, and he brought the Duke of Wei's daughter with him, so there was a lot of noise."
The soldiers who knew the situation immediately stood up and responded meticulously.
"Come back again?"
Upon hearing that Zhu Ming had returned without even notifying him, Zhu Di's brows furrowed even more.
"Your Highness, in my opinion, he should not be allowed to go to the T-camp again."
Seeing this, Yao Guangxiao stepped forward and spoke into Zhu Di's ear.
If Zhu Ming was allowed to walk around the military camp like this, it would be bad if he heard any rumors.
They knew very well the big mouths of these soldiers under their command.
"You, run to the Dingzi Camp immediately and tell them that no one is allowed to enter without my permission!"
Zhu Di nodded, pointed at the soldier who had just responded, and gave orders in a deep voice.
Military orders cannot be disobeyed. After the soldier responded, he ran away.
"Somebody come!"
Watching the soldier run away, Zhu Di was still a little worried and shouted again.
"Your Highness!"
A burly man in strong armor stood up from the side and knelt on one knee in front of Zhu Di.
Different from the lazy look of the officers and soldiers before, this big man had a face full of flesh and looked like a killing god.
At first glance, he is obviously a fierce general in this army.
Zhu Di was also worried about other people.
"Take a few people with you and ask Zhu Ming to leave the barracks."
Zhu Di understood that he could not let Zhu Ming continue to stay in the military camp, otherwise he might notice something unusual.
"Remember, don't hurt him."
Watching the big man leave, Zhu Di felt a little worried again, so he quickly called him and added another sentence.
Zhu Ming was the emperor's most beloved grandson. If he got injured in the military camp, he would have a hard time explaining himself.
"As ordered."
The big man nodded affirmatively and then retreated.
After learning that several people had actually disappeared in the military camp, Zhu Ming became even more curious about the situation in the T-shaped camp.
