Fortunate Young Gentleman

Tang Yaoyao was shocked by his sudden forced kiss. She stood there with a blushing face and said shyly: "You..., if you kiss me again next time, I will, I will beat you..."

Tang Ning didn't have time to listen to her words at all, so she dragged her outside. The blush on Tang Yaoyao's face had not faded, and she hurriedly said, "What's wrong..."

Tang Ning said: "It's too late to explain, let's go to Xiao's house first!"

…

At the entrance of Xiao Mansion.

Ever since the news about Young Master Xiao reached the capital, General Xiao had closed his door to thank guests, not seeing outsiders, and blocking out those who came to the Xiao Mansion to offer comfort and condolences.

Everyone naturally understood this. General Xiao twice gave away his white-haired man to his black-haired man. No one could understand his sadness.

Miss Lu, who has already stepped into the Xiao family, is naturally not an outsider. She has been accompanying General Xiao these past two days.

When Tang Ning and Tang Yaoyao walked to the door of the Xiao Mansion, the concierge of the Xiao Mansion showed a tangled look on his face and said, "General Tang, the master said that we won't see any outsiders these days. How about... how about I go in and ask? ?”

If it were anyone else, he would have shut him out a long time ago, but the relationship between Mr. Tang and his young master was unusual, so he had to change his mind temporarily.

"No, I'm in a hurry. I'll go in by myself." Tang Ning waved her hand and strode in with Tang Yaoyao.

The concierge did not stop him. He sighed and said loudly: "General Tang, please remember to advise our master..."

Within the Xiao family.

Lu Ya was dressed in plain clothes, with long waterfall-like hair tied up high in a woman's bun. She was kneeling in the ancestral hall. Her face was pale and bloodless, and her pupils had lost focus, as if her soul had been pulled out.

Mr. Xiao walked in and said in a hoarse voice: "I asked the kitchen to cook some food. You can eat some."

Lu Ya shook her head and said, "I'm not hungry."

Mr. Xiao said: "You haven't eaten for two days."

Lu Ya said: "I want to spend more time with him here."

Mr. Xiao looked at her, pondered for a moment, and said, "Go away. You haven't entered my Xiao family yet, so you are not considered the Xiao family's daughter-in-law. Don't delay you because of the Xiao family..."

Lu Ya raised her head and said: "Since we are engaged, I, Lu Yasheng, am a member of the Xiao family and will be a ghost of the Xiao family when I die. When I die in battle, please ask my father to bury me and him together."

Mr. Xiao sighed and said, "Why are you doing this..."

"I'm going to the northwest, to the place where he once fought." Lu Ya stood up and said, "Dad is alone in the capital, so he must take care of himself..."

"I'm not allowed." Mr. Xiao looked at her and said seriously: "The people who are no longer gone are gone. Those who are alive should live well. He doesn't want you to do this either."

Lu Ya smiled and did not refute, but the belief in her eyes remained firm.

At this moment, a voice came from outside the door.

Tang Ning strode in and said, "Xiao Jue is not dead, and you don't have to go and die. He is alive and well. He is eating mutton and drinking kumiss at Wanyan Department..."

Lu Ya and Mr. Xiao turned around at the same time. Mr. Xiao looked at him and said in shock: "What did you say?"

Tang Ning looked at the two of them and said, "Xiao Jue is not dead."

Mr. Xiao looked at him, and after a moment, he shook his head and said, "If Lord Tang is here to comfort me, there is no need to do this..."

Tangning shook her head and said, "It's true that he was once publicly executed, but he was saved. The person who saved him was a friend of mine. I just received her letter."

Mr. Xiao looked overjoyed, grabbed his arm and asked, "Seriously?"

In order to make them believe it, Tangning nodded and said, "The person who saved him is the Fourth Princess of Wanyan Department. She and I are friends. Should you believe it now?"

Lu Ya's complexion returned to rosy, but two lines of tears fell from her eyes.

Mr. Xiao looked up to the sky and laughed, with tears in his eyes. He strode forward, threw Xiao Jue's spiritual tablet on the ground, crushed it under his feet, and said with a loud laugh: "Okay, okay..."

Xiao Jue is such a bastard. Tang Ning reminded him many times not to be too arrogant on the battlefield, but he just didn't listen. If he was caught this time, he would be publicly executed...

If the grassland people really cut him down, it would fulfill his dream of leaving his name in history.

The news of his death brought tears to many people, including Tang Ning. The next time they saw him, they would not be able to bear the sadness that Tang Ning had felt in the past two days unless they gave him a good beating.

Mr. Xiao and Lu Ya experienced great joy after great tragedy, and their emotions were extremely unstable. Tangning did not stay in the Xiao Mansion longer.

He and Tang Yaoyao walked out of Xiao Mansion, holding her hand, and when they walked to the street, they realized something was wrong.

He turned to look at Tang Yaoyao, who looked straight at him with a pair of beautiful big eyes.

"Fourth Princess Wanyan..., a very good friend?" Tang Yaoyao looked at him and asked with a smile, "Are you talking about that little wild horse on the grassland?"

Tangning froze on the spot, thought for a while, and said, "You go back alone first. I want to go to the palace and report this to Your Majesty..."

After saying that, he turned his head and strode towards the entrance of the palace.

Wan Yanyan's letter not only brought news about Xiao Jue, but also related to Chen Guo's national economy and people's livelihood.

In the imperial study room, Emperor Chen looked at him in surprise and asked, "Xiao Jue is not dead?"

Tangning nodded and said, "He was rescued by the Fourth Princess of Wanyan Department."

"Fourth Princess Wanyanbu?" Emperor Chen asked with a trace of doubt on his face, "Why did the Fourth Princess Wanyanbu want to save him?"

Tang Ning said: "Your Majesty, you don't know that I had dealings with this fourth princess on my way to Chu last time. She is different from other Khans. She hopes that the Han people and their Sushen people can live in peace and stay away from war. This time, she saved Xiao Jue and 500 soldiers, which is a signal to us..."

Emperor Chen thought about it carefully and said in surprise: "You mean, if she unifies the Sushen tribes, the grassland and Chen will be able to live in peace and there will be no more war?"

Tang Ning raised his head and said: "I can't guarantee this, but I can guarantee that only if she sits on the position of Khan, we can negotiate with the grassland. If the eldest prince and the third prince succeed to the throne, the situation will be even more unfavorable to us..."

Emperor Chen thought about it and nodded: "You are right. If we can help her sit on the position of Khan, it will be of great benefit to us. Without the threat of the Sushen people, we will have enough energy to deal with the Western Regions..."

Tang Ning bowed and said: "Your Majesty is wise."

Emperor Chen looked at him and said "This matter is extremely important. It concerns the future situation of several countries. I am not at ease if I leave it to others. I plan to give this task to you..."

Xiao Jue is at Wanyan Yan's place. Just send someone to pick him up. Tang Ning didn't even think about going by himself. He looked up at Emperor Chen and said, "This matter is of great importance. I am afraid that I will fail your majesty's trust..."

Emperor Chen shook his head and said, "If even you can't do it, who else can?"

Tang Ning shook his head and said, "I have never led troops..."

Emperor Chen said, "I will let the border troops assist you with all their strength. Everything depends on you. In addition, you also bring the 100,000 troops including these 10,000 cavalry..."

He looked at Tang Ning and said, "Moreover, you are familiar with the fourth princess of the Wanyan tribe. In an extraordinary moment, extraordinary means can be used..."

Tang Ning looked at him and said in surprise, "Extraordinary means..., what means?"

"Use the means you are best at." Emperor Chen looked at him and said, "For example, turn her into your fifth wife..."
