Chapter 305: Affection
"Shaoning, are you really sure we don't have to follow?" Duan Lang asked with some concern, he didn't understand Xiao Yunqi's move to release Yutai Qiu'an. "This man has brought troops to destroy us, and when he returns to take charge of the army, won't he make a comeback?"
"The general must have a reason for making such a decision, we are busy on the road, you should be quieter!" Speaking is rouge, that's right, it's rouge, now rouge has regarded Xuan Shaoning as her husband, no matter where Xuan Shaoning goes, she will not abandon her, it is useless to persuade anyone, of course, including Xuan Shaoning himself.
"Rouge, you don't know martial arts, it's really not helpful for you to follow us." Duan Lang successfully angered Rouge, and she waited for Peach Blossom Eyes, "I'm useless?" Don't come to me for treatment if you're hurt! ”
Xuan Shaoning had no choice but to come to relieve the siege and said: "Okay, rouge, Duan Lang is this person, he has no bad intentions, you know this." ”
Sure enough, as soon as Xuan Shaoning spoke, Rouge immediately changed from a shrew to a lady, and said softly with a retracted expression: "I naturally know this, I am most worried about you, this capital is so dangerous, I don't want to wait for news in Mobei alone." ”
"So aren't you following now? No matter how dangerous the capital is, I am much more down-to-earth with you, and you are my lucky star. ”
Ouch, Rouge's face was completely red to the base of her neck, she never expected Xuan Shaoning to be able to say such love words, this is simply rare in a century. Rouge was directly stunned on the spot, and there was no other action except shame.
Duan Lang found an opportunity, and he quipped, "Yo, when did this happen?" We are together every day, why didn't I know that the two of you were together? You've done a good job of secrecy! Shaoning, it shouldn't be you who Rouge is actively pursuing, right? ”
Rouge didn't have time to completely retract his shyness, and a disgusted expression began to appear on his face, "You're quite pitiful, you're blind at a young age!" ”
"I didn't know until so late that Rouge is good, I'm not too young, it's time to have a family, I think Rouge is suitable."
Rouge turned his head to Xuan Shaoning's side and immediately returned to his twisted appearance, looking like a little bird, which was simply different from Duan Lang just now.
"The two of you will pick a time, announce your relationship at this time, and the two of us will be present!" Duan Lang was blessed in his heart, but he still refused to spare them.
"It's not because of you, otherwise we would have chosen a formal occasion to announce it!" Rouge glanced at Duan Lang, and then began to look at Shen Ming, who was already walking in front, he had been in a hurry, and he was not affected by the three people behind him at all. Rouge knew that Shen Ming would not hear the conversation between them, she was a little more vigilant about him, remembering that her sister had warned her to pay attention to a few people, including Shen Ming.
Xuan Shaoning rode his horse to follow and said to Shen Ming: "Senior Brother Shen, as long as you return to the capital alive, there will be no business for us. ”
"Really?" Shen Ming said, "He will be useful, it won't be so simple for the general to let him go back." ”
Without waiting for Xuan Shaoning to ask, Shen Ming had already ridden his horse and started running, the road from Mobei to the capital was not short, they had to hurry up. Tantai Qiu'an has already left them far away, they are all people with tasks, and they can't laugh casually along the way.
Approaching the end of the year, the whole Liang is about to enter the final New Year's celebration, but this year is very different from previous years. Not only has the emperor changed, but even the land has been divided, and half of the land is already under the control of the Tang Dynasty, how should the people in these lands spend this new year?
The road from Mobei to the capital is no longer as smooth as before, and the several states that have to pass through this road are the territory of the Tang Dynasty, so they naturally set up checkpoints along the road, and anyone who passes by must be checked. Xuan Shaoning and his entourage dressed themselves as shepherds in Mobei, carrying a lot of skins with them, and in the face of the investigation, they claimed that they had entered the capital to sell skins at the end of the year. This set of rhetoric is quite effective, and I didn't encounter any trouble along the way.
Tai Qiu'an, who had already lost his trace, let Xuan Shaoning and his party meet him at the checkpoint. The reason, it is estimated that many people can guess that Tantai Qiu'an can't give a reasonable explanation for his identity, even if he wants to hide his identity, but his brain is useless, and it is really flawed to tell lies.
Shen Ming stepped forward and pulled over Tai Qiu'an is slap, and this slap made Tai Qiu'an himself stunned. Shen Ming then handed a bag of silver taels to the general of the Pancha guard, and said in a good voice: "This is my stupid brother, he is also a shepherd in Mobei, we originally wanted to go to the capital to sell some skins, make some money and come back, how do you know that this fool has to follow us, there is a lot of trouble, and please ask the official to raise his noble hand." ”
As soon as he saw the three people behind Shen Ming staring at him, he instantly lost his confidence, and if he exposed his identity, it would be no benefit. Tantai Qiu'an reluctantly tilted his head, Shen Ming pointed at Tantai Qiu'an and then smiled at the guard. The hand-holding was soft, and the guard was quite satisfied with the money bag, so he made a gesture of release, so that the next part of the road, the five became fellow travelers.
To say that the resourcefulness is not as good as theirs, Tantai Qiu'an still dares to admit it, but if you really want to do it, he is not sure, and the odds of winning a pair of four are very low. Especially Shen Ming, his cold appearance, coupled with a long sword hidden in his skin, Yutai Qiu'an still forced himself to swallow his anger.
After walking all the way, the five of them were safe, and a few days later, they finally arrived safely in the capital, the imperial city of the Great Liang. When he reached his feet, he was arrogant, he no longer had to put up with these people, he took off the ugly skin with the peculiar smell of animal fur, and raised his head to shout at the city gatekeeper.
"If you plan to shout, the consequences may not be good." Xuan Shaoning dissuaded in time: "Don't forget, the news of your death has spread all over the capital, what identity do you plan to appear in front of everyone now?" ”
"Those who spread false accusations deserve to die!" Even if he is stupid, he should think clearly along the way, he began to understand that what Xuan Shaoning said made sense, but he and they have always been incompatible, and he can't be subservient to others at this time. "I'll go back to the house first, and I'll go to the palace to meet me in the future, so that everyone knows that I'm still alive."
"General Yutai, this is the end of our agreement, we were on the task of escorting you at the beginning, and now that you have arrived safely, we will say goodbye."
"Well, I'm not going to see you again!" Yutai Qiu'an raised his feet and prepared to walk towards the city gate, and his mind finally remembered why he went to Mobei in the first place, and how to return to Emperor Liang when he came back now?
"Wait!"
"How? Does General Shantai want to go back on his word? ”
"No matter how I say it, I am also a soldier, and a soldier's words always count, you can rest assured of this. But now I want to make it clear to you, don't think that I will be grateful to you for sending me back, what you have in mind, even if I can't figure it out for a while, my brothers will soon know! ”
"I hope you'll soon find out what's really going on in your brothers' hearts." Shen Ming coldly threw down a sentence.
"I said, General Tantai, it's all at the door, let's not talk too much here, let's go back early, let's go in and rest for the night." Duan Lang was very reluctant to call it that, and it was completely for Xuan Shaoning's sake that he forced himself to hold his temper.
"You're going into town?"
"What? Could it be that we can't even enter the city? We had to think about avoiding the investigation of the Tang people, and we had to walk very hard. It's a pity that this road was originally the land of our main beam, but now it has to be so careful. I don't think General Tantai would have led troops to arrest us without keeping his word. ”
Xuan Shaoning deliberately picked out the topic, and Tai Qiu'an really put it on the table, "I will definitely defeat you one by one!" It was on the battlefield, and I never disdained to bully more than less! If you want to enter the city, then go in, my goal is to capture Xiao Yunqi alive and completely exterminate you traitors! ”
"General Tantai is so confident! Before exterminating us, please ask the general to see clearly, the place where the troops have to pass through from the capital is the sphere of influence of the Tang Dynasty! ”
Xuan Shaoning felt that what he said was almost there, so he entered the capital with the three of them, they didn't plan to pay attention to Tai Qiu'an anymore, at least for the time being, they had more important things to do.
