[Chapter 23 61 Intractable and Intractable Bureau]

At the headquarters of the Northwest Army, Tao Xiang looked at the empty gray square of the compound and took a sip of coffee.

The sun is shining outside, and it is the crisp season of autumn.

Xiao Dunhuang stood beside him and asked, "Have you figured it out?" ”

Tao Xiang glanced at him for a while and said, "I don't want to be clear, I won't act." Da"

"Then you must have thought about how difficult Jingyi's situation would be." Xiao Dunhuang said.

"So I'm afraid she won't come back, and I'm afraid she'll come back." Tao Xiang said He.

Xiao Dunhuang looked at Tao Xiang, and he could understand Tao Xiang's mood at this time.

Naturally, she was afraid that she would not come back, and gave up this marriage because of her dissatisfaction and fear of him; is also afraid that she will come back, because of the predicament he caused to the Cheng family, and even more so because he used Dai Mengyuan to overturn Fei Yuming and break the trap set by Cheng Zhichen for him...... If she came back because of this, she would be disappointed if he was Tao Xiang. But no matter what Jingyi chooses, he can understand. It's like he can understand what she did for Dai Mengyuan.

But he is not Tao Xiang after all, in other words, Tao Xiang is not him.

Tao Xiang saw that Dunhuang was silent, and said, "This time it's thanks to you." ”

Xiao Dunhuang smiled and said, "I'm afraid I will lose Jingyi's friend." He did not shy away from his concern for Cheng Jingyi in front of Tao Xiang. This is for him to be able to face Tao Xiang calmly.

Tao Xiang was silent for a moment before she said, "She won't know that it looks like you didn't help her, but in fact you helped the most." ”

Xiao Dunhuang clapped his hands and said, "I'm also for myself." At that time, I had a good thought, but I didn't expect that there would be endless troubles. If you don't want to settle it, you and I can't get out of it. ”

Sowing good causes does not necessarily lead to good results. Jingyi is, and so does he. What surprised him was Tao Xiang. When Tao Xiang knew the origin of the matter, there was no surprise. He asked, and he said lightly, I already knew. At that time, I only had to discuss the plan with him, how to take down Fei Yuming in one fell swoop through this matter, and I didn't think about it carefully. Thinking about it later, and then connected to the series of actions taken by Tao Xiang against the Cheng family, he couldn't help but admire him extraordinarily.

Tao Xiang has wasted almost no time and opportunities in the past few years. He planned step by step, waiting to deliver a fatal blow to his opponent - if the Cheng family could be an ally or an opponent, then he was also ready to deal with it the moment he turned into an opponent - he couldn't help but think of Tao Xiang's chess style. They only played half a game, but unfortunately they were interrupted by something and were not able to finish the game.

He and Jingyi also had a chance to play against each other, but coincidentally, it was only half a game...... He smiled.

Tao Xiang didn't know what he was thinking, and he thought of laughing and looking at him.

Xiao Dunhuang shrugged his shoulders and said, "Jingyi should be there soon." You've got to go home today. ”

Tao Xiang didn't say anything.

He didn't go home before Jingyi left, and lived at the headquarters. He didn't go to see her off the day she left. The only time I went home to see my grandmother these days, I was taught a hard lesson. He didn't say anything. thought that he was suspicious of Jingyi because of the conflict with the Cheng brothers. In such a misunderstanding, the opinions of the family members are also divided into two factions, one in favor and one against. There was also a dispute between the two factions. The eldest sister Er'an is a centrist, and she also said that day, could it be that you are all good, and they are all made to show others? It's not like that.

Of course not. At least not all......

"It's good to be willing to come back, talk to her." After Dunhuang's finished speaking, he stopped talking.

He suddenly felt like a woman nagging about these things.

Although they had already received the telegram from Cheng Jingyi from Nanjing, they were undoubtedly a little apprehensive, and they always felt that the news was uncertain.

Cheng's banks were run on, and even the financial institutions owned by the Suo and Kong families that supported him were also affected. Negotiations between Cheng Shiyun and Du Wenda are still ongoing, and the impact of the incident is still expanding. Cheng Shiyun is more cunning than he imagined before. It was not easy to get a bargain from him. If there is no help from General Liao Zhiyuan this time, I am afraid it will be difficult to force Cheng Shiyun, who rarely interferes in the operation of the Cheng family, to sit down.

Tao Xiang naturally knew his father-in-law's wrists. The two sides are wrestling, and it is actually difficult to predict who will die.

He's been planning for this for a long time. After he saw Cheng Zhishen's plan clearly, he didn't expect to get back all the money he had lost on the bonds. But being constrained because of this is something he cannot tolerate. He is not a man without patience, and by this time, his patience has been exhausted. God gave him a Dai Mengyuan, and even sent him Dunhuang, if it weren't for these two people, he might have solved the dilemma he was facing much slower and more difficult.

Why did Dunhuang help him, he naturally knew.

Not just because he was once General Liao Zhiyuan's savior, but because they shared a common goal. And until this goal is achieved, the two of them will be firmly bound together.

Xiao Dunhuang smiled and said, "Think about how to stop the current matter." Jingyi soon returned. ”

Tao Xiang took a sip of coffee, which was already cold and tasted a little strange. He frowned. It seemed that he only cared about smacking the cold coffee, and didn't hear Dunhuang's words.

Xiao Dunhuang has figured out his character these days, and when he knows that he doesn't want to respond, it's useless to say anything. He saw that it was almost time, and it was time for him to go.

Tao Xiang didn't keep him anymore.

The two were talking when they heard the sound of brakes in the yard below. Xiao Dunhuang saw Tao Xiang's movements standing still, and looked at it-the person who got out of the car turned out to be Ma Xingjian, who followed Jingyi to Nanjing-he deliberately said loudly: "The pony is back!" ”

Tao Xiang glanced at him, and was about to turn around, when he suddenly saw the woman in a grass gray hunting suit who got out of the car after him was Jing Yi.

Tao Xiang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Jingyi to come here directly.

Looks like she should be in a hurry.

Xiao Dunhuang looked at him and looked at Jingyi, his complexion, which was quite gentle earlier, gradually sank. He frowned and said, "I'll go first." ”

Tao Xiang nodded and sent him out of the office door.

Xiao Dunhuang went downstairs, turned two flights of stairs, and saw Jingyi coming upstairs from a distance—against the deep gray background of the headquarters building, her moving figure seemed to be conspicuous only by the black hair...... Xiao Dunhuang stood down first. When Jingyi came closer and returned Ma Xingjian's salute, he looked at Jingyi and asked, "Jingyi, are you back?" Is the road still smooth? ”

Jingyi nodded.

Xiao Dunhuang looked at her, and the emaciated Jingyi was as thin as a color painting. Haggard and delicate, yet the eyes are so bright.

"Commander Tao is waiting for you." Dunhuang turned sideways.

Jingyi nodded again.

Maybe it's because at the headquarters, Xiao Dunhuang calls Tao Xiang the commander, which makes her feel that the two of them are really in the same camp.

She took a closer look at Dunhuang. His appearance has not changed much, whether he is in exile or a bandit, there is no obvious difference between him and his current brigade commander. Dunhuang is Dunhuang.

"Jingyi," Seeing Jingyi looking at him silently, Dunhuang suddenly became uncomfortable. "If it's convenient, I'll meet in two days, and I'll have something to say to you."

Jingyi was standing two or three steps away from Dunhuang, and she was already much shorter than him, so she had to look up at him.

She asked softly, "Okay." However, Dr. Ren, have they also been arrested? ”

Ma Xingjian had already left them some distance and was waiting a little farther away.

Her voice was extremely soft, and only she and Dunhuang could hear these words.

Xiao Dunhuang said in a low voice: "That's the case......" He stopped talking. Looking at Jing Yi, he realized that Jing Yi was probably a little mistaken about him. But if he wants to explain to Jingyi here, first, he doesn't have time to say so much in a short period of time, and second, he shouldn't say so much at this time anyway.

Seeing that he was silent, Jing Yi said: "Although you can't pack tickets for them, if you are really involved and can protect them, you can think of a way, Dunhuang." ”

She didn't say anything else or ask anything else, nodded to Xiao Dunhuang, and continued to walk upstairs.

Xiao Dunhuang stood in place and watched her go upstairs.

His adjutant Yuan Qiu ran up and told him to leave quickly, and if he didn't leave, he wouldn't have time to rush back to visit the old man. Xiao Dunhuang was inexplicably irritable when he heard it. His father sent someone to find him to go home, presumably because of Ren Xiufang's aunt, Mrs. Lang. The arrest of Ren Xiufang and his wife has always frightened Mrs. Lang, and in her opinion, the only one who can help is Dunhuang.

Xiao Dunhuang couldn't reveal the inside story at will, but just told Mrs. Lang that he would try his best to help. The old lady did not see her niece and his wife come home, but she was still crying and crying, and she could not stop worrying.

Now that he sees Jingyi, he hopes that this turmoil will pass quickly.

He hurried down the stairs......

Jingyi stood outside the door of Tao Xiang's office, and the guards saluted her.

The sound of the gun was loud, and she thought that Tao Xiang in the office must have heard it clearly. But the door was closed, and the guards had to knock on the door before there was a response.

Jing Yi walked in, and Tao Xiang was sitting behind his desk. Seeing her come in, he stood up.

Jing Yi's appearance surprised Tao Xiang.

expected that she would come to him to see him as soon as she landed, and she must be a dusty servant, but she didn't expect that she hadn't seen her for so many days, and it seemed that only those big eyes were left on her thin face. It was these big eyes that looked at him for a moment.

She said, "I'm back, Makiyuki." ”
