Half a month later, Ning Xiaochuan's convoy finally appeared at the gate of Dunhuang City.

Compared with the embarrassing scene of the first time when he used the eight gold of the Xiangzhou army to enter the city gate just now, this time it was much smoother.

Zhou Mu Qian Gui and Xu Tianliang, Cao Anguo had been waiting at the city gate for a long time, and Li Fenghe, Qi Shangang, Tian Yi and many other generals also followed.

After the convoy arrived in Dunhuang, with Qian Gui's order, the drums on the city wall burst out, and the soldiers shouted in unison:

"Welcome to the fifth son."

Ning Xiaochuan stepped out of the carriage, looked at the Wenchen generals around him, looked solemn, and thanked him.

The matter of Mingqiu Mountain's sacrifice to the sky had already spread to Dunhuang, and even Qi Shangang had to admire Ning Xiaochuan's courage.

It is the first time to sacrifice to the heavens with the weapons of the Northern Barbarian State, looking at the thousands of years of Dafeng.

After worshipping the sky, Ning Xiaochuan's prestige in the army will reach a higher level, Qian Gui came to Ning Xiaochuan, arched his hand and said, "Little boy, the canonization order of the imperial court has arrived, Your Majesty is overjoyed when he hears about your sacrifice to the sky, and canonizes you as the general of Dingbei and the military division of Xiangzhou, and then you may justifiably stay in Xiangzhou to lead the army." ”

Ning Xiaochuan smiled softly, "This canonization order is insignificant to me, just a reputation." ”

Qian Gui smiled awkwardly, it is true, Ning Xiaochuan can not enter Yindu one step now, it is enough to see his attitude towards the Yindu court.

Qian Gui continued, "The Xiqiang tribe has frequently appeared on the western border during this time, and the general set off to the border ten days ago to deter the Qiang people.

But it also angered the Northern Barbarian Court, according to the temperament of the Northern Barbarian Khan, I am afraid that this matter will not be so easy to pass, and it will be a new national war. ”

When sacrificing to the sky, Ning Xiaochuan had already thought of this, but he still resolutely chose to sacrifice to the sky.

Beiban and Dafeng have had a long-standing grudge, whether Ning Xiaochuan sacrifices to the sky or not, a big war will break out between the two countries, and Ning Xiaochuan's sacrifice to the sky is just a few years ahead of the war between the two countries, since there will be a war sooner or later, what are you afraid of?

"I've thought about the big brother's worries, although the Northern Barbarians have the blessing of national weapons, but my Xiangzhou is not much worse, and the fierce generals in the army are like clouds, so they can't fight.

The Flying Leopard Army and the Divine Tiger Army have also begun to take shape, and I am still worried that there will be no battle for them to complete the final tempering, and now it seems that my worries are also unnecessary. Ning Xiaochuan said with a smile.

Qian Gui shook his head helplessly, "The last time the two countries fought a war, General Yan Ziyue was martyred, and countless soldiers were sacrificed, and it has only been a few years, if my Xiangzhou is at war, I am afraid it will attract some bad remarks from the imperial court, especially those who have bad intentions towards my Xiangzhou. ”

"Hahaha, the flies are just buzzing, let them go, except for life and death in this world, it is a trivial matter."

Ning Xiaochuan's open-minded attitude surprised Qian Gui, Qian Gui stroked his beard and smiled, "Yes, it's all a trivial matter, son, please inside." ”

Re-entering Dunhuang, Ning Xiaochuan's state of mind has changed, in the face of the dissatisfaction of the imperial court, for the sake of the people, his father and eldest brother chose to seek grievances, one gave up military power, and the other was obedient, should he Ning Xiaochuan be like this?

No! He won't, his dignity is only above the blade, and he will use the sword in his hand to fight for Xiang Zhou's dignity.

As for those barking little, let them be their own clowns, after all, as the old saying goes:

I have climbed a hundred miles to the sky, and it is difficult to see a vein in the leaves!

……

As soon as he arrived at the gate of Ning Mansion, Ning Xiaochuan stopped in place, and at the gate of the courtyard, sister-in-law Cheng Shuangshuang and second sister Guan Yun'er stood at the door with the red-eyed Yu Xining, waiting for him quietly.

Where Yu Xining stood in plain yarn, after seeing Ning Xiaochuan, Guan Yun'er and Cheng Shuangshuang both smiled happily, but Yu Xining was like a wronged child, tears fell from her eyes.

Ning Xiaochuan gently walked to Yu Xining's side and gave the woman in front of her a hug, the woman cried even more, and Guan Yun'er next to her looked very uncomfortable.

"Xiao Chuanzi, you can frighten us now, if it wasn't for the people in the city to tell us, we wouldn't have known that you went to Mingqiu Mountain."

Cheng Shuangshuang next to him followed and said, "You and your eldest brother are hiding really deeply, look at Miss Yu, if you have an accident, what will you do with Miss Yu?" ”

Ning Xiaochuan looked at Yu Xining with an apologetic face, and said softly, "Military secrets, forgive me for not being able to tell you, I'm sorry." ”

"You are so annoying...... Yu Xining hugged Ning Xiaochuan and cried loudly, Ning Xiaochuan looked at Cheng Shuangshuang and Guan Yun'er, shook his head and said, "Sister-in-law, second sister, thank you for taking care of Xiling during this time." ”

"Family, don't talk about this." Cheng Shuangshuang bowed his head slightly, and the slightly bulging belly also made Ning Xiaochuan see that something was wrong, "Sister-in-law, you ......"

Cheng Shuangshuang nodded lightly and touched his stomach gently, "It's been three months." ”

Ning Xiaochuan was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, this is a great event, congratulations." ”

Yu Xining, who had been crying for a while, let go of Ning Xiaochuan and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Ning Xiaochuan, I don't care if your military secrets are unclassified or not, anyway, if you do this again next time, I will ignore you." ”

Guan Yun'er sneered and comforted, "Our Xiaochuanzi is obedient, you can rest assured, there will be no next time." ”

After saying that, Guan Yun'er didn't forget to glance at Ning Xiaochuan, Ning Xiaochuan walked to Yu Xining's side, reached out and grabbed Yu Xining's slender jade hand, his eyes were deep and affectionate, "Xi Ning, do you remember what I promised you before I left?" ”

Yu Xining stared at Ning Xiaochuan with wide eyes, "...... are you?"

Ning Xiaochuan took a deep breath and shouted at Yu Xining, "Yu Xining, I, Ning Xiaochuan, want to marry you!" ”

This shout made Cheng Shuangshuang and Guan Yun'er stunned, but then there were bursts of blessing laughter.

Ning Xiaochuan's voice was very loud, he wanted the entire people of Dunhuang to know that he was going to marry Yu Xining as his wife.

Yu Xining's tears that had just stopped came out of her eyes again, rushed up and hugged the person she liked, the two hugged each other, and Ning Xiaochuan kissed the woman on the forehead.

Cheng Shuangshuang behind him looked at Guan Yun'er and shook his head helplessly, "We are busy, time passes really fast, in the blink of an eye, Xiaochuan is going to get married." ”

"yes." Guan Yun'er was even more emotional, "Xiaochuanzi is married, if my father and mother are still here, how happy I should be." ”

failed to let his parents see the scene of his family and career, which is Ning Xiaochuan's eternal regret.

……

On the hills outside the city of Dunhuang.

After returning from the border, Cheng Huahua sat lonely on the hill, looking at Dunhuang City in front of her, and Song Shixin behind her surrounded her chest with her arms, standing behind Cheng Huahua and looking up at Dunhuang City.

"Do you regret it? Missed a great opportunity to assassinate Ning Xiaochuan? ”

Cheng Huahua shook her head, "No." ”

"Then you stare at Dunhuang City and feel sad, Ning Xiaochuan Mingqiu Mountain sacrifices to the sky, and the name is shocked, if this reaches the ears of the prince, you and I are afraid that it will be difficult to be scolded, if it is unfortunate that the old thing knows, then it is not as simple as being scolded......"

Song Shixin said thoughtfully, and swept towards Cheng Huahua next to him, Cheng Huahua seemed to have something in mind.

After hearing Song Shixin's words, Cheng Huahua said silently, "What do you mean, enter the city to assassinate?" ”

"Do you have a better way?" Song Shixin said with heavy eyebrows.

Cheng Huahua muttered, "Ning Xiaochuan is surrounded by masters, it is easy for you and me to get in, but it is difficult to come out, if you don't do it, you have to die inside, you assassinated Ning He here back then, you know more about what I said than I do." ”

Cheng Huahua's words reminded Song Shixin of the picture of entering Dunhuang back then, just like she said, it is easy to enter and difficult to get out, there are not a few masters in the Xiangzhou army, and their own strength is really not enough in the Xiangzhou army.

"However, if you return empty-handed, you will also die." Song Shixin said flatly.

This city is not inaccessible, looking at Dunhuang City, Cheng Huahua unconsciously appeared in front of Ning Xiaochuan's figure.

As a killer, the most taboo thing is feelings, but she has to admit that she has special feelings for Ning Xiaochuan, as for why, she doesn't know, she wants to enter Dunhuang to see Ning Xiaochuan again.

"Let's go into town." Cheng Huahua patted the dust on her body and said softly.

Song Shixin nodded, and said in a deep voice, "I know where the Ning Mansion is, after I go, I will directly enter the Ning Mansion to assassinate Ning Xiaochuan, and once I succeed, I will leave directly, if it unfortunately falls into the hands of Ning Xiaochuan, then you and I can only consider ourselves unlucky." ”

The two hit it off, and immediately turned into ordinary people and walked towards Dunhuang City.

Entering the city, looking at the bustling crowd and the lively street market, the two of them were more or less uncomfortable, a group of patrolling Xiangzhou soldiers walked through the street, Song Shixin subconsciously lowered his head, and Cheng Huahua stood up and walked forward indifferently.

Dunhuang City is very lively, the teahouse and wine shop are full of stories about the little boy Ning Yan sacrifice to the sky, Cheng Huahua listened to the joy in her heart, Ning Yan sacrificed to the sky, and also had a lot of credit during this period.

Song Shixin pulled the two of them to the alley next to the Ning Mansion, Song Shixin took off the coarse cloth clothes on his body, and said with a cold expression, "Simply clean up, let's act at night." ”

Cheng Huahua pressed Song Shixin's arm, and Song Shixin was just about to speak, when he saw a man with white hair and red robe standing quietly in front of the two, looking at them with a smile.

The two of them chuckled in their hearts, this let them see, when the Northern Barbarian Elder was dying and counterattacking, when he was about to make a move, it was this person who pulled Ning Xiaochuan back from the gate of hell.

"You two, you can do it now, you don't have to wait until the evening." Pei Yu shook his head and said.

Song Shixin's expression was gloomy, his left fist was clenched, Pei Yu put away the fan and continued, "Do it here?" Have you figured it out? ”

"Sooner or later, I'm going to die, what am I afraid of." Song Shixin still wanted to continue his luck, but Cheng Huahua next to him looked at Pei Yu hesitantly, "Could it be that you will let us go?" ”

"I don't have that power, but the people behind you do." Pei Yu raised his eyebrows and motioned for the two to look back.

As soon as the two turned around, they saw Ning Xiaochuan in a strong suit, and beside Ning Xiaochuan, a girl in purple gently held his arm.

Cheng Huahua felt sour and uncomfortable in her heart, this girl is so good-looking, good-looking makes people jealous, no wonder Ning Xiaochuan looks down on herself, it turns out that she has already been accompanied by beautiful women.

"Ning Xiaochuan......" Cheng Huahua clenched her fists, and said cruel words to her lips, but she didn't know what to say.
