Chang'an is good

Meng Lie asked this question when he came up, without any greetings or foreshadowing. Chang Kuo was stunned and subconsciously looked at the token in Meng Lie's hand.

——Why did His Highness’s things appear in Suining’s hands?
——Your Highness's own things appear in his hands... Isn't that normal?

Chang Kuo answered to himself, thought for a moment, and shook his head: "I have never seen this thing before..."

This is the truth, he didn't lie.

As for more... His Highness didn't say anything, so he couldn't say anything.

Chang Kuo only asked doubtfully: "However, since it is in Suining's hands... then why is it here again at this moment?"

Meng Lie looked at Chang Kuo: "She was the one who sent someone back to the capital to give it to me."

Chang Kuo raised his eyebrows and told the truth again: "I don't know anything about this matter... I haven't heard a word from Sui Ning."

He didn't know in advance that Meng Lie would come to Jiangdu, and he didn't know why His Highness gave this token to Meng Lie... But maybe it was because of lack of money?

"It's strange that you don't know anything." Meng Lie looked at the token in his hand and said, "When His Highness left the capital, Suining was just a little baby. His Highness couldn't give this thing to her directly. At least there needs to be a trustworthy person to keep it and hand it over-"

Chang Kuo shook his head: "I don't know about this... Just ask Suining directly!"

"If she is in the camp right now, why should I come to see you?" Meng Lie always spoke concisely to the point of being too polite in private, and never made unnecessary detours or pleasantries.

"Then just wait for her to come back." Chang Kuo sat down nonchalantly: "Anyway, it's not an urgent matter."

Meng Lie raised his eyebrows: "This is His Highness's old thing. Now that it appears again, how can it not be a huge emergency?"

Chang Kuo was helpless: "Then you can't swim to the sea to find her, right? Or, just for this reason, I sent people to the sea to find her back? Is all military affairs thrown away?"

Meng Lie frowned and said nothing for a while. He was not a troublesome person, so he knew clearly that major military affairs could not be disrupted just because he was eager to confirm his wishes.

"Come on, come on, sit down and drink some water first." Chang Kuo raised his hand to pour tea for Meng Lie.

Meng Lie was anxious, and when he turned around, he happened to see the large characters "Generous Man" hanging in the tent by Chang Kuo.

Meng Lie took a few steps closer, looked at it again and again, and clenched his hands slightly at his side.

Although his attainments in calligraphy and painting are not high, as the leader of the intelligence building, distinguishing the authenticity of His Highness's handwriting was once an indispensable task.

He couldn't quite make out the tiger picture, but Taifu Chu once said the word "like", and in his opinion, the handwriting of the letter Chang Suining sent to the capital was [-]% or [-]% similar...

But now the large characters are [-]% similar.

Is it really just a copy of His Highness's handwriting?
"Lao Chang——" He suddenly asked: "Have you ever felt that Suining and His Highness have many similarities?"

Chang Kuo raised his eyes and looked at Meng Lie's thin back.

There is no doubt that Meng Lie is a smart man, but it is easy to understand why this smart man has only noticed this strangeness until now.

Meng Lie was different from him. Suining's surname was Chang, and he grew up in Chang's family. He didn't have much contact with Meng Lie, so Meng Lie didn't know Suining well.

After His Highness came back, he never had any interactions worth mentioning with Meng Lie.Therefore, Meng Lie was unaware because he had no chance to notice.

This is just one of them.

The second reason is that Meng Lie has always set his sights on the magic circle of the Goddess Tower. According to that magic circle, His Highness's life will appear in the people who are involved in blood... Furthermore, he subconsciously believes that if it is true, If there is any "progress" worth mentioning, Wu Jue will definitely inform him.

Therefore, before seeing the half token sent by Chang Sui Ning, although he had some thoughts in his mind, it was destined to be limited.

"Yes." Chang Kuo said in the usual authentic tone: "Didn't we often say in the past that this kid Sui Ning is very destined to His Highness?"

Meng Lie was noncommittal. If being saved by His Highness meant he was destined, then there are too many people in the world who are destined to be His Highness.Therefore, he had no reason to be particularly interested in the Chang family girl.

But now... it's different.

Hearing Chang Kuo greeting him to sit down and talk again, Meng Lie didn't know what he thought of. He suppressed his sense of urgency, walked over, and sat down cross-legged temporarily.

"Your hair..." Chang Kuo pushed the tea bowl in front of Meng Lie, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on Meng Lie's gray temples: "Is it because of Wu Jue?"

Meng Lie didn't answer, just picked up the tea bowl and drank water.

Chang Kuo was thoughtful when he looked at the man in front of him, whose face was dusty and whose clothes were stained with mud.

Arriving at this hour, it was obvious that he had traveled all night from Jiangdu, and his level of concern and eagerness was evident...

If the white hair was simply due to Wujue's "passing away", Chang Kuo felt that it was somewhat inconsistent with Meng Lie's temperament.

Lao Meng, because his experience is different from ordinary people, has a particularly cold and guarded temperament.In the past, when His Highness was around, a group of them were joking and joking. Lao Meng always stood beside His Highness without saying a word. He never had close contact with anyone and only maintained the relationship of ordinary colleagues.

I remember one time after drinking, they held Meng Lie's shoulders and walked back, laughing and sighing, if His Highness asked Meng Lie to kill them, Meng Lie would not even blink an eye, but would immediately draw his sword. kill.

At that time, Meng Lie, who was embraced by them, said without any hesitation: "Of course." 】

And he said to them: "It's not just me, but we should do this with each other." 】

They scolded Meng Lie for not being humane at all.

So, Meng Lie’s white hair at the moment...

If one of them is for the human touch that He Wujue has cultivated over the years, then the rest is probably for that formation, that formation that can help His Highness return home.

Chang Kuo sighed in his heart at this moment. Now it seems that His Highness's worries and doubts about Lao Meng can most likely be put aside.

But the details will have to wait until His Highness comes back.

As soon as Meng Lie put down his tea bowl, he asked: "When will Sui Ning come back? Is there already a fight at sea?"

"There have been three or four battles, but they are all small movements used by the Japanese army to test." Chang Kuo did not reveal too many military aircraft in detail, and only gave a general explanation: "The main force of the Japanese army has not shown up, and Sui Ning's trip , just to spy on the location of the main force of the Japanese army."

Meng Lie asked seriously: "How many people did she bring with her?"

"Since this is spying, naturally we can't make too much noise." Chang Kuo said: "A thousand naval divisions, and the troops should be divided into groups."

Meng Lie suddenly frowned: "...then if we bump into the Japanese army, wouldn't it be a disaster?"

Chang Kuo said comfortingly: "Don't worry, Sui Ning has always been alert enough. If he senses danger, he will respond early and try to escape."

"This is the sea. Has she ever been to the sea?" Meng Lie frowned even more tightly: "Why don't you go for such an important matter? Instead of letting her, a child with no experience in naval warfare, put herself at risk?"

When Chang Kuo listened, he felt that it was quite similar to what his son had said in a letter asking him urgently, "Why didn't my father go to Bianshui and instead asked his sister to fight Xu Zhengye?"

At that time, he replied to his son, "You know shit," but this statement obviously did not apply to Meng Lie. Looking at Meng Lie's white-haired face, Chang Kuo said in a very friendly manner: "How can I get there? I have this leg." We can’t toss around at sea, and I drank half a kilogram of medicinal soup last night.”

He added: "Besides, Sui Ning is the commander in chief of this battle. Don't worry, she is bringing with her elite sailors on this trip, and there are fishermen to guide the way, and she has the most detailed map of the sea area..."

Meng Lie looked at him with unclear meaning: "Are you so relieved?" Chang Kuo raised his eyebrows: "...Now who knows that my daughter is the reincarnation of Jiang Xing, of course I can trust it!"

As he closed his fingers, Meng Lie's tiger's mouth, which was frayed by the reins, tightened slightly - General, is he reincarnated?
Chang Kuo noticed the temptation in Meng Lie's words, so he changed the subject: "Suining only brought half a month's worth of supplies for this trip. She won't wait until all the food is used up before coming back. It is expected that she will be gone in three to five days at most. You just have to wait a few days to get ashore."

Seeing that Meng Lie didn't answer, but was still looking at him, Chang Kuo was on pins and needles, so he could only bring up another topic casually: "Before Suining went to sea, he pried some news from two Japanese spies... Do you know that this time the Japanese Who is the commander sent by the army?”

Meng Lie finally said: "How can I know."

"It's Fujiwara."

Meng Lie: "Maro Fujiwara?"

Chang Kuo nodded: "That's exactly the person."

Meng Lie had a deep memory of this man: "He was the one who killed Hao Feng more than ten years ago... and he is still alive?"

After many years, Chang Kuo's eyes were still a little sad when he mentioned his former colleagues and friends. He and Hao Feng joined the army together when they were young, and later became His Highness's most trusted right-hand man.

During the battle with the Japanese army more than ten years ago, Hao Feng accidentally fell into the hands of the Japanese army in order to protect him... Later, Fujiwara tortured and tortured Hao Feng in order to interrogate the military plane, but Hao Feng never revealed a word.

During the battle that day, they saw from a distance that Hao Feng, whose body was riddled with holes and mutilated like a piece of rag, had a spear pierced through his body and was erected high on Fujiwara's warship to vent his anger and demonstrate.The Japanese soldiers were shouting and laughing on the deck, holding knives and trying to provoke them.

In the last battle, Fujiwara was hit by two arrows, one in the chest and the other in the left eye.

They saw with their own eyes that Fujiwara fell from an arrow and the Japanese army's formation was in chaos. After a fierce battle, the Japanese army fled.

At that time, they all thought Fujiwara was dead, but they did not expect that this man was so stubborn that he lived to this day and led his army to invade again after more than ten years.

"It seems that he came here to avenge his shame." Meng Lie said at this moment: "This person is treacherous and vicious, and it is difficult to deal with him. Now he has revenge... You must be more careful."

Chang Kuo clutched the tea bowl and said "hmm" in a dull voice: "This person will never die against my prosperity. This trip will make him never come back."

Fujiwara is indeed difficult to deal with. It was His Highness who led the Xuance Army to force the opponent back more than ten years ago.

Moreover, Fujiwara has rich experience in fighting against the Dasheng navy, and after more than ten years of dormant waiting, he obviously has the intention of winning this trip...

Fortunately, His Highness is here for this battle.

It was precisely after he found out from the two Japanese spies that Fujiwara was the commander of the battle that His Highness decided to go to sea personally to spy on the location of the enemy's main force.

After all, in this sea area, the person who knows Fujiwara's fighting methods best is His Highness.

At this moment, Yuan Xiang's voice came through the curtain.

Yuanxiang was one of the first to camp here. He was busy every day and worked very hard. Now he is one of the most useful people under Chang Kuo.

It was already daylight, and Chang Kuo still had many military affairs to deal with, so he said to Meng Lie: "Old Meng, you go and have a rest first, and wait in the camp until Suining comes back."

Meng Lie could only nod, stand up and leave.

Outside the tent, Yuan Xiang was a little surprised when he saw Meng Lie passing by him very quickly. How could this person look so similar to the Meng Dong family from Deng Tai Tower in the capital?

Yuan Xiang didn't look any further and quickly walked into the tent to report military affairs to Chang Kuo.

Meng Lie was taken to a tent to rest, but even though he was exhausted, he was still not sleepy at all. He tried to walk out of the tent, and happened to meet A Dian passing by.

A Dian's eyes widened in surprise, but he also looked around cautiously, then walked towards Meng Lie and asked in a low voice: "Uncle Meng, why are you here!"

He knew that Uncle Meng and Uncle Chang were both different. His Highness had said that Uncle Meng was a secret and everyone should keep it a secret and pretend not to know him when they met on the street.

But secretly he likes Uncle Meng very much, because Uncle Meng owns a restaurant and has many delicious snacks!
Meng Lie smiled gently at him: "Let me take a look."

A Dian's eyes lit up and he followed Meng Lie into the tent and said, "Uncle Meng, have you brought anything delicious?"

A Dian said, his eyes fell on a baggage, he pointed at it excitedly and asked, "Is that food?"

Meng Lie looked in the direction of his finger and his expression changed: "...Don't talk nonsense!"

A Dian retracted his hand angrily and looked at the suddenly serious Meng Lie with some grievance.

Meng Lie came back to his senses, lowered his voice and said, "That's not food...I'll send someone back to Jiangdu tomorrow to buy you one of the most delicious snacks in the city, okay?"

A Dian immediately put aside the grievances just now and nodded happily and expectantly.

Meng Lie poured him a glass of water, and he happily sat and talked with Meng Lie in the tent.

During the chat, Meng Lie looked at the innocent A Dian in front of him with gentle eyes: "Our A Dian has such a simple mind, I wonder if there is anything we can't let go of?"

"Yes!" A Dian said seriously: "Chopsticks!"

The thing he can't put down the most is chopsticks. He can't put them down when he picks them up!
"..." Meng Lie was silent for a moment, then asked a question that was more suitable for A Dian's physique: "Then A Dian, do you want to see His Highness again?"

A Dian nodded heavily without thinking: "Yes, of course I do!"

Seeing that there was no sadness or longing in those clear eyes, only pure happiness and brightness, Meng Lie seemed to hear the sound of waves surging in his chest.

He asked again: "Then A Dian, do you want to know where to go to see His Highness?"

This time, he clearly saw A Dian hesitate for a moment.

Meng Lie's eyes trembled slightly - A Dian shouldn't hesitate on this issue!
A Dian nodded slowly: "I think so."

But he didn't rush to ask for the answer.

At this time, a shout came from outside the tent: "Where is General A Dian!"

"I'm here!" A Dian responded loudly, and hurriedly stood up and said to Meng Lie: "Uncle Meng, I'm going to train with Coach Fang Da and the others. I'll talk to you later!"

Meng Lie nodded slowly, with a suppressed tone in his voice: "Go ahead."

Looking at the back of A Dian who quickly left without hesitation, Meng Lie slowly withdrew his gaze, turned his head little by little, and looked at the baggage that was placed respectfully.

A Dian is very obedient and will never say anything he shouldn't say...but those reactions cannot be faked.

When A Dian heard the word "His Highness", he was still happy and admired, but he was no longer eager to find His Highness... Why is this?
Meng Lie sat there motionless, like a tree. The surface was drooping and withered, silent, but the roots and heartstrings buried deep in the soil were extending rapidly and silently.

Outside the tent, night falls silently from light to darkness.

It was night, and I don’t know what time it was, there was some commotion outside the tent, and a soldier vaguely said: "...it seems that the coach is back from the front!"

Meng Lie, who was on the couch in the tent, suddenly opened his eyes, immediately lifted the thin quilt, grabbed his coat in the darkness, and walked out of the tent.

(I feel everyone's eagerness, but my hand speed is really bad. I worked hard today and only managed 4400 words. The preparation is complete. See you tomorrow! I will definitely finish this paragraph tomorrow! Good night! Please give me some monthly votes. I collected 4 tickets, but still have 3 left. I love you all (づ￣[-]￣)づ
