Quick Wear: I Fulfill the Wish of Cannon Fodder

Chapter 315: The Concubine of Ninghua Marquis Mansion Turns Over

As the conversation deepened, Situ Yan gradually became curious about Yun Lin's experience. Then, a flash of inspiration came to her mind, and a bold idea emerged - to persuade Yun Lin to rebel and use him for her own purposes!

She looked Yun Lin in the eye and said sincerely, "Mr. Yun, in my opinion, the Wu Kingdom's treatment of you is unkind and unrighteous. Why should you remain so loyal to such a country? Why not lend me a helping hand?"

"I might as well tell you that I am the ninth princess of the Kingdom of Liu. If we can successfully defeat the Kingdom of Wu this time, I will surely win the favor of my father and may even be crowned a princess!"

At only fourteen years old, Situ Yan's eyes, as bright as stars, gleamed with burning ambition and endless desire. Born into an imperial family, despite her female form, her unwillingness to be ordinary drove her to fight tooth and nail for the supreme throne.

Because in her eyes, her brothers were either unambitious, incompetent fools, or timid, cowardly, and timid. How could such people be worthy of ruling the world? Only she had enough wisdom and courage to rule this vast land.

On the other hand, although Yun Lin is the young master of the Marquis's Mansion and will naturally become the Crown Prince in the future, he did not easily agree when faced with Situ Yan's request for his assistance in stealing state secrets.

After all, he knew full well that if he got involved in this, he would be committing treason and committing the death penalty. So, he calmly responded, "Well... I'm still the son of a prominent marquis, and upon returning home I'll be crowned the Crown Prince. If I really helped you steal secrets, wouldn't I become a traitor despised by everyone?"

Obviously, Yunlin is not a stupid person. He is well aware of the interests involved, so what he needs at this moment is a fair and reasonable exchange of interests.

Hearing Yunlin's words, Situ Yan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile. Without hesitation, she made a solemn promise to Yunlin, stating that if he could help her ascend the throne, she would not only grant him the prestigious title of "Royal Consort," but also make him the most powerful husband under the emperor!

With such an attractive offer before him, Yun Lin readily agreed without giving it much thought. Then, the two of them quickly gathered together and began to plot how to steal the crucial defense map without anyone noticing, and how to safely and securely pass it on once the task was accomplished.

In the system space, Su Lan, Tuanzi and the other two were watching the protagonists plotting side by side. Suddenly, she said, "The hero and heroine have just met. If I break them up right away, won't it make me seem heartless?"

"Ah, host, you actually think about this problem," Tuanzi looked at the other party with his mouth wide open.

"What's the situation with the heroine's aura? Can she be killed?"

"Well, due to the plummeting power of the male protagonist, the female protagonist's power is only 50% left. We can't kill her, but we can seriously injure her."

Tuanzi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. The host did whatever he wanted, and it thought the host wanted to play for a while longer.

Su Lan and Tuanzi were in tune with each other and naturally understood what it was thinking. She immediately rewarded it with a sugar-roasted chestnut.

"Ah, it hurts! Host, you are so bad," Tuanzi held his little head and accused Su Lan with eager eyes.

"The heroine is a spy from the enemy country. If she leaks secrets one more time, many people will die on the battlefield. Of course, we have to cut the Gordian knot," Su Lan explained, then left the system space and returned to the Marquis' Mansion.

She called Chunmei and Xiahe, claiming that she was not feeling well and needed to rest for three days. She asked the two of them to take care of the internal and external affairs before she retreated back to her room.

After nightfall, Su Lan put on a disguise mask and transformed herself into the heroine Situ Yan. Then she appeared outside Dong Lin's tent, deliberately made a noise, and then quickly ran to Yun Hao's tent not far away where he was recuperating alone.

When Donglin came out to check, he only saw a blurry figure flash by: it was a woman, and the other party also sneaked into Master Yunlin's tent.

When did Yunlin bring a woman to the military camp? No, she might be an assassin or an enemy spy.

After regaining consciousness, he cautiously moved towards Yunlin's tent. A faint light shone through the tent, clearly indicating someone was inside. He tiptoed closer, peering through the cracks, and, as expected, saw two blurry figures.

Remembering Aunt Su's solemn words to him, Dong Lin didn't dare to neglect them and hurriedly moved closer. With the profound internal strength he had cultivated over the past ten years, he could clearly hear the conversation inside even through the tent.

Suddenly, a clear and firm girl's voice rang out: "There is no time to lose, we must act tonight!"

Yun Lin's deep and steady response followed immediately: "Alright, then it's arranged this way. I'll find a way to lure General Wang out of the main tent, and Princess, you can take this opportunity to sneak in and steal the defense map."

Donglin, who was outside, couldn't help but feel anxious when he heard this. He was almost 100% sure that the woman called "Princess" was the one Aunt Su had specifically told him to keep an eye on.

Without waiting for the two people in the tent to continue their conversation, Dong Lin could no longer suppress his inner anxiety and hurriedly turned around and ran towards General Wang's tent.

Being bold but careful, he didn't directly mention the serious matter of Yunlin collaborating with the enemy. Instead, he tactfully said, "General, there's an emergency! According to reliable intelligence, the enemy princess has infiltrated our camp and has successfully abducted Master Yunlin, who is struggling with mobility issues. The situation is dire, and we must provide assistance as soon as possible to rescue him."

He knew this matter was of grave importance. If mishandled, Yunlin's fault alone could implicate the entire Marquisate. And Aunt Su, who had been so kind to him, like a mentor and a mother, would be even less likely to be spared. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel anxious.

General Wang frowned upon hearing this, pondered for a moment, and then nodded, "Well, this matter is indeed of great importance. In that case, I will appoint you to lead two teams of elite soldiers to carry out this mission. Remember, you must capture the enemy spy alive, but do not take his life lightly."

"If the captured person is indeed the princess of the enemy country, then she will undoubtedly be an important bargaining chip for us. We can then use her special status to negotiate with the enemy country and strive to end this long war that has lasted for more than ten years as soon as possible."

After receiving the general's clear instructions, Dong Lin immediately stood up and responded loudly: "Yes, I will follow the general's orders!" After that, he turned around and left quickly, ready to gather the necessary personnel.

Su Lan, who was hiding on the side, nodded with satisfaction. He was indeed the apprentice he had brought up, and he did things flawlessly. So he would give him a hand and make his words come true.

She did it right away. In a flash, she came to Yunlin's side as fast as a ghost. Her beautiful eyes stared at Yunlin, searching for the best moment to strike.

Just as Yunlin stood up and prepared to leave the tent, she seized the opportunity, suddenly mobilized the spiritual power in her body, gathered it at her fingertips, and struck Yunlin's mute point hard!

Instantly, a powerful force struck Yunlin's neck, sending an indescribable tingling sensation throughout his body. Terrified, he instinctively tried to scream for help, but was horrified to discover he couldn't even utter a single sound.

Meanwhile, upon seeing Yun Lin struck, Situ Yan quickly stepped forward to check on him. However, just as she crouched down and before she could examine him carefully, the tent curtain was suddenly flung open without warning!

The sudden change forced the extremely alert heroine to react instantly. Without a moment's hesitation, she drew the extremely sharp dagger from her waist with her right hand like lightning and pressed it against Yunlin's neck. The movement was smooth and seamless!

At this moment, Donglin and the other soldiers happened to witness this scene. They stared with wide eyes, looking at the scene before them in astonishment - inside the tent, a strange woman holding a dagger was threatening the injured Yunlin.

Therefore, everyone was certain at this moment: Captain Yun was really being held hostage by this traitor of unknown origin!
