Hello Chang’an

Chapter 161 It’s pretty explosive

The sword boy said: "The saint sent General Wei, the leader of the left army, to fight for this battle..."

"Didn't choose Dad?!" Chang Sui Anli said with a look of joy on his face: "Great, I knew the Bodhisattva must have heard my words!"

He wants to go to the Buddhist temple now!

The sword boy, who had not finished speaking, continued the second half of the sentence with a complex expression: "... let the general be the deputy commander, and we will set off tomorrow."

Chang Sui An suddenly stopped his step as he stepped out.

After a while, he sat back blankly.

Not long after, Chang Kuo returned to his house, took a look at his son's face, and said in surprise: "Hey, the news is quite good. Why are you so anxious to show off your dead father's face?"

Chang Sui'an felt even more uncomfortable when he heard this: "My father hasn't gone to the battlefield yet, why would he say such unlucky words?"

"No matter how unlucky it is, it's unlucky to have your donkey face that's longer than the bamboo wind!" Chang Kuo sat down in the chair and said, "Why don't you let me take away your unlucky look? The older you get, the more pretentious you become. When I was on the battlefield when you were young, you took the lead in setting off firecrackers outside Xuance Mansion!"

Chang Sui'an opened his mouth, lowered his head and said nothing.

He was only a few years old at the time and had no idea what danger was. At that time, his father was still in the Xuance Army. He only felt that his father was always very majestic when he went to fight, and his father always fought with those uncles from the Xuance Mansion. The uncles were sitting on their horses, talking and laughing, as if they were going on a spring outing.

After all, my father was still in his prime at that time, his hair was not white, and his feet were not lame, but now...

After the battle in Beidi twelve years ago, my father suddenly became old.

Chang Sui'an lowered his head and said nothing, only to hear Chang Kuo say: "My father will lead the army to go on an expedition tomorrow, and I will leave the family affairs to you..."

Changsui An suppressed tears when he heard this. Yes, his father is gone, he still has to support the family, he has to show what a man should be like!

The young man quickly collected his emotions and nodded solemnly when he raised his eyes. However, he saw his father looking at his sister.

Chang Sui'an: "..." Although I paid by mistake, I still think it's reasonable.

Chang Suining didn't speak for a while, and just nodded.

Chang Kuo also had some mixed feelings in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He only said in a relieved tone: "Sui Ning can now take charge of his own business. Dad can feel more at ease this time when he goes on an expedition."

With that said, he called Manager Bai to come over: "Old Bai, during the period when I am not at home, Sui Ning will be in charge of everything in the house. You will do whatever she says."

Bai Guanshi should go down.

Chang Kuo was not a long-winded person. After giving a rough explanation, he thought about it and tactfully said to his daughter: "My father is not at home. This fight...if we can reduce the fight, it would be better to fight less."

Chang Sui'an had something to say: "But Dad, every time my sister fights with someone, it's always the other person's fault. Ning Ning doesn't want to fight with anyone!"

Chang Kuo: "Nonsense, can I not know?"

Isn't he worried that if he is not in the capital, no one will be able to protect his daughter in the event of a fight where he can't tell the difference between right and wrong?

Um?

Chang Kuo frowned, suddenly smiled, and looked at his daughter with a loving look on his face: "If it is necessary to beat him, then he will still beat him. If something happens, go find Qiao Yang, Yu Zeng and the others. If they can't exert their strength, then... Then go find Governor Cui!"

He also told Guanshi Bai: "If the girl is accidentally injured, she must take my sign to the palace and ask a medical officer to come and see her. Don't be careless."

"Yes..." Manager Bai felt worried after hearing this.

Is there any father in the world who talks the most and arranges the most things before going out, but it is actually to make it easier for his daughter to fight?

When a general kills an enemy, he probably has to take time to think about it—did his daughter get into a fight today? Did the fight go well?

After hearing this, Chang Suining finally showed a smile on his face and nodded seriously: "Okay, I've written it all down."

She knew that Chang said these things to make her happy and relaxed. Although these words did not really make her feel relaxed, she was not a three-year-old child and needed to be coaxed by her father who was about to go to war.

In order to reassure Lao Chang, she looked relaxed at this time.

She also warned Chang Kuo in turn.

Chang Kuo obeyed all his daughter's instructions and agreed to them all.

Chang Suining asked from behind: "Speaking of which, how is my relationship with the left-leading General Wei who is the head coach this time?"

The opponent is the coach and Lao Chang is the deputy coach. There is a lot that the two need to discuss together.

At this moment, when Chang Suining mentioned General Wei, the leader of the left army, what appeared in Chang Suining's mind was a face in his early thirties.

General Li Yi, who led the army on the left, was a descendant of the clan, and his father, Li Tong, King of Huai'an, was the cousin of the late emperor.

Li Yi was of the same generation as her, and she had crossed paths with him as Ah Xiao when she was young. After becoming Chang Suining, she met him again at the hibiscus flower banquet not long ago.

I haven't seen him for more than ten years. Li Yi, who used to be famous for being timid among the clan members and was often bullied by some princes, has now become General Wei, the leader of the left army.

Chang Kuo replied: "I'm not familiar with him, I've only met him a few times, but he is humble and doesn't have the arrogance of those clan members. Just after the morning meeting, he said a few words to me in private, saying that he would Everything is at my disposal.”

Chang Suining nodded.

If this is the case, it would be great.

After the Ming Dynasty, Li Yi was appointed as the commander-in-chief. On the one hand, he was always suffering from injuries and illnesses, so he was really not suitable to command the entire army. He retreated to the position of deputy commander, which would be more able to convince the people.

Secondly, Xu Zhengye and others raised troops in the name of reviving the Li family to overthrow the Ming Dynasty, but the Ming Dynasty made Li Yi, a descendant of the Li family clan, the commander-in-chief to conquer the opponent. The heart of everywhere also slapped Xu Zhengye on the face.

Therefore, Li Yi's role this time is mainly based on his clan status. In terms of how to transport troops in combat, it has to be Lao Chang.

If the other party can see and accept this clearly, and is really willing to put Lao Chang's opinion first, then this battle will be relatively easy to fight.

"Speaking of which, there was someone who wanted to compete with me for the position of commander in chief this morning." Chang Kuo said jokingly: "But I didn't let him. In this battle against Xu Zhengye, no one can compete with me. More chances of winning!”

The next day, when the sky was dawning, before Chang Kuo left, the person he was talking about also came to see him off.

A young man in a mysterious robe dismounted and walked towards him in the faint morning light.

Outside the mansion, Chang Kuo, who was talking to his children, looked over with a smile: "Why are Governor Cui here here?"

The young man approached and raised his hand: "Cui Jing is here to see off the general."

Chang Kuo smiled and sighed: "Xuance Mansion has been busy lately, why do you need to make this trip?"

The coach and the forward soldiers will gather outside the city gate, and the officials and servants who came to see him off are also waiting at the city gate. At this time, the other party came to Xingningfang alone to see him off in private.

Then Cui Jing and Chang Kuo went to the side to talk, and they talked alone for about half a cup of tea.

Chang Suining and Chang Sui'an looked at the two people talking.

Chang Suining guessed that Cui Jing's words were just instructions and reminders, or some opinions about the war that should not be spoken out in public.

Her eyes fell more on Chang Kuo.

It's been a long time since she saw Lao Chang wearing armor.

When they returned to Beijing that time, she and Wei Shuyi were assassinated on the way. When they met Chang Kuo and Cui Jing in triumph, Chang Kuo was not wearing armor because he was sitting in a carriage.

Because it was so many years since she saw him wearing armor, the comparison between the two made her feel like a hero in his twilight years.

When Chang Kuo turned around and walked back, Chang Suining suddenly looked at him and said, "Dad, shall I go with you to fight this battle?"

Cui Jing turned his head slightly and looked at her.

The soft autumn morning light reflected the girl's eyes with sparkle.

"What nonsense are you talking about again!" Chang Kuo smiled and raised his head and rubbed the top of the girl's hair: "Stay at home with peace of mind and wait for daddy to come back!" Shi Suining had already mentioned this once yesterday, Chang Kuo I refused without thinking, and there was no room for negotiation.

He is a doting daughter, but he is not crazy.

His daughter is extremely talented in martial arts, but what matters on the battlefield is never mere martial arts talent.

No matter how much he followed his daughter, he could not let her go to the battlefield and mess around. Although he had never objected to his daughter's family's advancement, this battle was too dangerous and not suitable as a first-time experience.

Chang Sui'an on the side also advised: "Ning Ning, just listen to dad."

Yesterday, he also expressed the idea of ​​going on an expedition with his father, and he went to his father's room alone at night to say so, but his father's words made him give up this idea.

My father asked him first - if we, father and son, are both here, do you want the Chang family to be extinct?

He didn't know how to answer.

However, my father thought for a while and said to himself - it will never happen, and in fact it doesn't matter, but have you ever thought about what if you and I can't come back, what will your sister do alone?

He was stunned, he had never thought of this.

Dad was afraid that he wouldn't understand, so he explained with a common saying - this is the so-called eggs cannot be put in the same basket!

he:…

Suddenly turned into an egg, he wanted to say something, "My father can't use metaphors."

However, it is indeed very vivid and easy to understand.

Even if it was for the sake of the Chang family and his sister, he couldn't stay in the same basket as his father.

Moreover, my father had a long chat with him. He expressed his hope that he could join the Xuance Army. Xuance Army was my father’s other family. There were the most elite soldiers in Da Sheng and the most trustworthy military commanders. Belief.

Chu Xing also said to Chang Sui Ning: "Don't worry, my lady, I will take good care of the general."

Chang Suining did not insist on being stubborn.

She knew Chang Kuo would not agree, so the words she just blurted out were also to pave the way for Chang Kuo to be mentally prepared.

Due to various reasons, it is inconvenient for her to follow him now. She still has unfinished business in Beijing.

She watched Chang Kuo and his party mount their horses.

"Be obedient and wait until dad comes back!" Chang Kuo said with a final smile towards the brother and sister.

Chang Sui Ning and Chang Sui An both nodded.

"drive!"

Chang Kuo's loud shouting sound sounded, and his figure quickly disappeared into the morning light together with the sound of horse hooves.

"Don't worry, General Chang will return safely and triumphantly."

The young man's voice contained an almost imperceptible gentleness and comfort, which brought Chang Suining back to his senses and retracted his gaze from Chang Kuo.

Chang Suining nodded and looked at him: "I heard from my father that Governor Cui intended to go to -" on his behalf.

"We can't talk about substitution. This is a great war, not a matter for the general." Cui Jing said: "But the general refused."

Chang Sui Ning is noncommittal.

What he said was right, and she agreed with it, but did he really have no selfish motives?

He never said those kind words, and as he said, he had never had any friends, but she could feel that he regarded Lao Chang as a trustworthy and respected elder.

If someone else was the deputy commander this time, instead of Lao Chang, he might not have said that.

It's not that he is lazy as a general, but because he is an excellent general, he should know how to place his position so that he can be more useful.

Lao Chang is indeed more suitable than Cui Jing to attack Xu Zhengye this time, but there are other areas where Dasheng needs Cui Jing more.

"Captain Cui understands after thinking about it that dad's refusal is reasonable." Chang Sui Ning said.

Cui Jing looked at her quietly and nodded.

Chang Kuo's expedition was a big event, and the whole family came out to see him off. At this moment, Chang Kuo walked away. Manager Bai and others bowed to Cui Jing and returned to the mansion.

Chang Suining and Cui Jing nodded and walked towards the mansion.

Cui Jing also nodded with her.

A moment later, Chang Sui Ning, who had just stepped through the door of the mansion, glanced at Cui Jing who was following him: "?"

The meaning of her nod was the same as that of Bai Guanshi and the others.

Chang Sui'an, who was behind him, was stunned for a moment when he saw this. His sister was a lady in the house, and there was a hibiscus flower party happening first, so it was hard for him to invite her. He originally wanted to ask Governor Cui if he wanted it out of politeness. He wanted to go in and sit for a while, but he hadn’t said anything yet... Why did someone just go in on his own?

Seeing that the Governor followed him into the Chang Mansion, the Xuance Mansion soldiers waiting outside the gate of Chang Mansion could not help but lower their voices and said, "Brother Yuanxiang...it seems that no one invited the Governor in, right?"

After hearing about the shocking behavior of their Grand Governor at the Lotus Flower Banquet, their entire Xuance Mansion was so shocked that they burst into pieces.

Last night I learned that the Governor was coming here to see off General Chang this morning. In order to compete for the place to accompany him this morning, they turned against each other!

The Governor only brought two people with him this morning. One of them was Brother Yuanxiang, who was a must-have for the Governor's home trip, and the other one was him.

God knows how many jealous looks he attracted when he followed the Governor out of Xuance Mansion.

—After all, the Grand Governor has sworn to wait for Mrs. Chang, so we can’t just wait, right? You will always do something if you think about it, right?

Therefore, ever since he got off his horse, his eyes have been secretly locked on the Governor and the Chang family girl!

Naturally, he did not miss the details of his own uninvited Commander-in-Chief.

"Yes..." Yuan Xiang's expression was also very complicated. He still has not been able to accept the fact that the friendship between the governors has deteriorated. This situation made him unable to help but puzzled and said: "Ms. Chang's hand is holding There is no rope..."

Otherwise, how could the Grand Governor follow him so naturally?

The soldier sighed.

Brother Yuanxiang didn't speak vividly enough.

He said that if there really was a rope, they would have to hold it themselves. They wanted to hand it to Madam Chang to hold it, but she was not willing to hold it.

It’s no wonder that they think of their governor as too humble, but the words of the governor at the Mid-Autumn Festival Flower Banquet are really worthless...

What, you can wait as long as you want, it’s just that you don’t want to marry in this life, I just ask your majesty not to force her...

Such a posture is quite explosive in the entire peacock world!

Cui Jing didn't know that two of his close subordinates were sighing. At this time, he was walking beside Chang Sui Ning and heard her speak again.

Ning Ning nodded: I’ll go in first.

Xiao Cui nodded in response: I understand, I will follow you right away.

Goodnight everybody!
