Hello Chang'an Chapter 427

Before Wei Shuyi could finish drinking a glass of water quietly, several officials came forward. After thanking Chang Suining, they bowed to him and apologized.

"The official I just dismissed didn't understand Minister Wei's good intentions and actually spoke rudely. I'm really ashamed..." The official who scolded him the most harshly was also the most guilty at this moment: "Please forgive me, Minister Wei."

Some officials apologized and said with a smile: "I really didn't know that Minister Wei had invited reinforcements in advance... As long as I knew a little bit, I could guess that Minister Wei was acting to delay time..."

These words were somewhat clearing up responsibility. They meant that Wei Shuyi had not informed them in advance, which was why they misunderstood.

Wei Shuyi smiled: "If I had told you in advance, so that you would not dare to curse loudly and let the rebels see the trick, wouldn't it be a failure?"

The official could only respond with a smile: "That's true..."

Seeing them talking here, Song Xian and Tan Li also came over.

Several officials dispersed, while Song Xian and Tan Li were warming themselves by the fire, talking about today's events and what they saw along the way.

Tan Li was mostly talking, and Song Xian occasionally added a sentence or two, talking about people's livelihood nowadays, with a look of silence and introspection in his eyes.

Chang Suining looked at them and felt that both of them had changed, but their original nature had not been lost.

After entering the officialdom, the "nature" of the two people became more obvious. In comparison, Tan Li was more adaptable and had a more open-minded and optimistic temperament. Song Xian had a clear bottom line of order and a heavier sense of responsibility. He was destined to be a direct minister who cared about the country and the people.

Both of them have their own strengths, and they also have their own growth and changes.

As Tan Li spoke, he was suddenly a little confused. Why did Chang Jishishi look at him and Yang Zhi with as much joy as he looked at "little saplings"?

But think about it, it is rare for someone to grow into a towering tree as quickly as the governor.

When a big tree sees a small seedling, it should be like this.

In front of a carriage not far away, Wu Siqing was waiting outside the carriage. When he saw the doctor coming down, he asked in a low voice: "Is my little girl in serious trouble?"

Anyway, he had just called out his daughter's identity, and the doctor must have noticed it when he checked her pulse.

Sure enough, the doctor also lowered his voice and said: "Your wife's palm was scratched, but the rest is fine... She's just severely frightened. I'll ask someone to cook some soothing medicine later."

The girl from the Wu family is not the only one who needs this decoction.

Wu Siqing raised his hand: "Then you'll have some work."

After the doctor left, the official who was friendly with Wu Siqing said: "Master Wu, you are confused... If it were the Taiping years, that would be fine. In today's world, you dare to take your only daughter with you. What if there is a real possibility? What's wrong, just go ahead and cry!"

Wu Siqing sighed repeatedly, with a look of regret on his face.

He didn't expect it to be so dangerous. Otherwise, even if his father broke his legs and slapped his face to pieces that day, he would never have agreed to take Chunbai with him!

"It's not the father's fault, it's the daughter who insisted on coming."

At this time, Wu Chunbai got out of the car, and Wu Siqing quickly stepped forward to help him.

"My father is worried, but my daughter is fine." Wu Chunbai's voice was hoarse and he looked forward.

Due to the direction he was facing, Song Xian first noticed Wu Chunbai walking towards here.

In his impression, the girl who was originally dignified and bright, elegant and elegant, with the fragrance of books, was now dressed casually, wearing a bloated dark gray quilted robe and jacket, with her hair hidden under a woolen felt hat, and her skin tone seemed to be darkened on purpose. Thick eyebrows.

Song Xian and Wu Chunbai looked at each other for a moment, then looked away, excused themselves and left with Tan Li.

Wu Chunbai stepped forward and saluted: "I have met the Governor Chang, Minister of Wei, and all your lords."

Wei Shuyi, who had recognized Wu Chunbai on the first day on the road, nodded slightly, stood up knowingly, and said to other officials: "My lords, follow me and speak."

It's always inappropriate for "two" girls to talk to each other while a group of middle-aged officials are around.

After everyone left, Wu Chunbai saluted Chang Suining alone: "Chang Sui Ning..."

"Sister Wu family, please sit down and talk." Chang Suining still retained the previous title when he was in the capital.

Wu Chunbai sat down as he was told, put his hands on his knees, clutched his robe tightly, and looked at Chang Suining, but he didn't seem to know what to say.

After a while, she said in a hoarse voice: "Prince Chang, I just...killed a person."

"It's a rebel." Chang Suining told her: "You killed a rebel who wanted to kill you. This is merit, courage, and luck, but it is not an exaggeration."

Wu Chunbai's somewhat distracted eyes trembled, and his eyelashes broke like tight strings, and suddenly large tears spilled out.

She hurriedly lowered her head and raised her hands to wipe away the tears on her face, but for some reason the tears flowed more and more violently.

At first she was afraid, then she felt an unknown shock, then she felt happy, and finally she inexplicably recalled everything she had done in the past nineteen years.

She seemed to be gibbering, wiping her tears while whispering: "Before coming here, I never imagined that such a situation would be like this outside the capital..."

"Today I almost thought I was going to die, so I thought, do I have any regrets in this life?"

"At that moment, I felt that I had too many regrets..."

At that moment, her fear of regret was even greater than her fear of death.

"I regret that I came here to increase my knowledge, but I have not been able to achieve anything, so I have to die in this desolate place. I regret even more that I have not been able to prove to the world as a woman that I am no worse than anyone else. , I deserve the best…”

She seemed to have lost control and kept choking and telling: "Chang Jishi must not know that I am not as dignified and open-minded as I appear on the surface. I am a very greedy person, and I have been since I was a child."

"I was jealous that my brother got everything better than me. I thought I shouldn't be under him, so I studied hard and pretended to be generous and sensible..."

"My grandfather, father and mother didn't treat me with such tolerance and respect from the beginning. I fought for and calculated all these things..." "Brother is not as good as me in everything, but there is only one thing he said that is right. I have always said that Loves to show off and deceive everyone..."

This was the first time that she had expressed such feelings to others. She originally planned to bury it in her heart for the rest of her life and only show the world the respectable appearance of the most talented woman in the capital.

After saying this in one breath, Wu Chunbai herself was stunned. She didn't know why she had to say these words and expose her "unbearable" side.

Perhaps she has never truly reconciled with such an "unbearable" self, so she chose to reveal it in this situation, as if she was confessing her sin.

She hung her head tightly, not even having the courage to raise her head to see how unexpectedly disappointed the girl in front of her would be.

But the next moment, she heard a sudden voice: "So that's it."

Chang Suining suddenly said: "I was originally confused as to why the Wu family was so enlightened. It turns out that this enlightenment did not come naturally, but the Wu family's sister fought for it little by little."

She said with genuine admiration: "That's amazing."

Wu Chunbai raised his head in confusion, his tearful red eyes full of confusion.

Chang Sui Ning looked at her with a smile: "When I first met my sister, I thought she was very talented, well-mannered, and had a bright eye. And when getting along with all the ladies, she could always be considerate of everything. It will make anyone dissatisfied, which shows that he is capable of making decisions and is good at commanding people's hearts—"

Wu Chunbai subconsciously asked in a low voice: "Then...what about now?"

"At that time, I was thinking, it is not surprising that this lady from the Wu family is talented in such an enlightened family, but where did she get these handy skills? Because I have never figured out, in my impression, my sister There is always something missing—"

When Chang Suining said this, a smile of surprise appeared in his eyes: "I didn't know until now that the finishing touch is actually here."

This stroke made the girl who was so perfect that it seemed unrealistic become more shining, more vivid and real, and the mind and ability revealed in it made her more worthy of others' trust.

Chang Suining finally said: "What you have is earned by yourself. Doesn't it better illustrate my sister's excellence than having it from birth?"

At this point, she handed the hand stove that Qinghua had just sent to Wu Chunbai: "Give this to my sister to warm her hands."

The hand stove was not of much use, but at this moment, she just wanted to give something to such a sister of the Wu family.

Wu Chunbai took it and said, crying and laughing: "But... I have nothing to give to Sister Chang."

Chang Suining smiled and said: "Sister Chunbai has given me a big surprise and a very important trust."

The corners of Wu Chunbai's mouth stained with tears trembled, and she hugged the stove with a relieved smile.

When the sky is getting dark, everything can be taken care of.

The Dongluo Guards following Chang Sui Ning had already followed closely. When Chang Sui Ning returned the cup to Wei Shuyi, he said: "They will **** you to Dongluo. I will leave another 500 people for you to dispatch. You guys are on your way at night." There's no need to be uneasy.”

Wei Shuyi took the cup that seemed to still have some warmth from her fingertips, and looked at her in surprise: "...you won't go back to Dongluo with us?"

Chang Suining nodded: "I have more important things to do."

Wei Shuyi held the cup in his hand - is there anything more important than watching the new king of Dongluo ascend the throne?

In this way, he seemed to know what was going on.

After a moment, he said: "Be careful on the road."

Chang Suining smiled and nodded: "You guys too."

Seeing her turn around, Wei Shuyi suddenly said: "The year is coming to an end, and the new year is in good health—"

Chang Sui Ning didn't look back, raised a hand and responded: "Well, have a happy New Year, and see you after the New Year."

Looking at the figure waving from behind, Wei Shuyi's eyes suddenly flashed back to the scene when he first met him in Hezhou.

At that time, she waved to him with her back turned.

So, he remembered it so clearly.

Wei Shuyi looked at the cup in his hand and stood quietly until he watched Chang Sui Ning mount his horse in the dusk and ride away in the opposite direction.

On the night of New Year's Eve, a bright bonfire was lit in the Xuance military camp stationed outside Youzhou.

"Grand Governor, Vice General Yu is back!" A soldier came into the tent to announce.

Cui Jing stood with her back to him. She had just put a few military reports that she had just read on a simple bookshelf and was looking for a map. When she heard this, she just said: "Let him in."

The soldier responded "yes" and quickly withdrew.

Not long after, he heard footsteps behind him. Cui Jing unfolded a map in his hand and asked, "How are things going?"

"Not bad." The girl's clear and casual voice answered him. After the voice answered, she asked: "It's just that I'm not a Tibetan rat. Why do you want me to hibernate?"

The extra update dropped late at night, is there anyone else? The title of the chapter is the first words Ning Ning said when she met Xiao Cui.

Tubo rat = prairie dog (as it was called at that time). This rat can hibernate.

It was agreed at the beginning of the book that I would be rewarded with an additional 2,000 words, but my hand speed was rubbish, and I have been making up for leave updates, so I haven't been able to add a few more updates. Please forgive me, I will try to crawl as many words as possible. (This chapter has 3,200 words, and there will be at least 3,000 more updates tonight. Good night!)
