Hello Chang'an
/ Hello Chang'an Chapter 603
Chapter 603 Why not give him three sons?
On the way to the study, Li Suining tried to chat with the Taifu, but the Taifu at most said "hmm" in a very light tone and never answered her words.
The teacher and student entered the study. After the servant brought tea, they retreated and closed the door.
Taifu Chu did not sit down, but turned his back and stood at the end of the desk, looking at something unknown, neither eating tea nor talking.
In the silence, Li Suining spoke: "Teacher—"
"I still want to go to Beidi." There was no emotion in Chu Taifu's old voice.
"Yes." Li Suining smiled: "It's the teacher who understands me best."
Mrs. Chu ignored her gag and lowered her voice: "So many people have advised you not to go, but you still want to go."
There was another moment of silence.
"Teacher." When Li Suining spoke again, his tone became extremely serious: "Cui Jing led the Xuance Army to station in the northern border for several years and won many battles. However, the Beidi thieves are still eager to take advantage of my great internal troubles. Nowadays, every attack becomes more fierce and fierce—"
"The reason why Beidi still dared to be so arrogant in the face of the brave Xuance Army and Cui Jing was that he recognized that today's Dasheng was unable to sustain a long war, and no matter how elite the soldiers were, they would all die one day. In front of the battle."
"This is inevitable after a long war."
"Even if Cui Jing can mobilize all the troops in the northern border and dare to attack Beidi head-on with a quick and easy attack, based on the number of cavalry and combat capabilities, our army's chance of winning is only 30 to 40 percent—"
Taifu Chu still didn't turn around and asked one word after another:
"Can one more person increase my chances of winning?"
"Yes." Li Suining's voice was firm: "Students can."
"Externally, students can kill the opposing general. Internally, students can boost the morale of our army."
"Besides, the student is not alone. There are also elite soldiers who can go with him. Although I dare not say that this can change the outcome of the battle, but even if it only increases the chance of winning by 10%, the student will do whatever it takes."
At this point, Li Suining raised his hand and asked with a salute: "Student wants to fight back the enemy with the soldiers in the north and bring more soldiers back safely, please teacher, please do it!"
Taifu Chu said "Why do you need me to help you", but in the end he didn't say it, and he didn't want to say it.
The old man only slightly turned his face half way, and said in a reminding tone: "You are the Crown Prince now—"
He spoke slowly but as if each word weighed heavily: "Is this what a prince should be like in such a willful manner?"
Li Suining raised his eyes and smiled: "Teacher, the student has been crown prince twice. Isn't it because of his willfulness?"
If she had not been so willful and reckless, she would not have had the former crown prince Li Xiao, nor would she have had the today's crown princess Sui Ning.
Taifu Chu turned his body slightly back. He saw the woman wearing a sandalwood gauze robe with a bamboo-like figure. Her voice was calm and she said:
"What students want to do should not change due to changes in status." She said: "If you change your surname from Chang to Li and put on the prince's robe, you will face the calculation of power and turn your back on the country of the common people. What's the difference between students and others? They are just puppets of power."
"Teacher, if I want power, I want it to be used for me, not for me to be burdened by it."
"If a student becomes the latter, then he is not worthy of being a teacher's student."
Listening to every word in his ears, Taifu Chu put one hand on the desk beside him, slowly closed it into a fist, and asked again: "When you leave now, your return date is unpredictable... Once King Rong takes over the capital and becomes the emperor, have you ever thought about it?" But, who will you fight for in this northern territory?”
Li Suining: "Teacher, I fight for the common people."
Hearing this sentence, which was exactly the same as the unhesitating "Shou Dao" when she and her relatives Beidi came to say goodbye in the past, Master Chu finally turned his head.
Under the dim light, the old man's old eyes were full of tears.
Li Suining was stunned for a moment.
It was the first time she saw tears in the teacher's eyes.
Unexpectedly, she thought that the teacher had turned his back to her like this when saying goodbye in the previous life, so at that time... was it because the teacher was also secretly crying?
The difference is that this time the teacher turned towards her.
Facing the old man's tearful eyes, Li Suining felt panicked for a moment, but her tone became more relaxed. She wanted the teacher to be more relaxed -
"Prince Rong will definitely set up many killing situations for me at this time, but I will not join this one. Teacher, isn't this also a kind of unexpected skill?"
"Brilliant..." Mr. Chu sneered: "So brilliant, so brilliant that he gave up all his opportunities to others!"
In the old man's slightly hazy vision, he saw that the young woman was disapproving and said in a free and easy tone: "I, the little uncle Wang, have been planning for many years to achieve this situation, and I am a genius. Now, for the sake of the common people, let his three sons Why not?”
"Why don't you give up one of his three sons..." Taifu Chu looked at her: "You are so generous, these three sons could be the master of the world!"
Li Suining did not waver: "Even if the Lord of the World is delayed for ten years, I will protect the northern territory first."
After looking at each other for a moment, Master Chu resisted the tears in his eyes and turned away again.
This time, Li Suining did not kneel down and leave like he did in the previous life. Instead, he took two steps forward and leaned forward to take a look: "Does the teacher not want to recognize me as a student again?"
Mrs. Chu was angrily: "...you still dare to mention it!"
After he said those words back then... I don't know how much he regretted it!
Li Suining stretched out his hand, grabbed one of the old man's arm sleeves, and begged with a smile: "Teacher, just promise me."
Mrs. Chu looked at her, half hating that iron could not become steel, and half heartbroken and compromising: "You go to fight, how could I, a teacher, ever stop you!"
Li Suining's eyes lit up: "You agreed!"
"Wear more, and come back with your beard and tail intact!" Master Chu said: "If you dare to lose even one hair... I'll give you ten precepts!"
These ten commandments are the heaviest words the old man is willing to say right now.
Li Suining's eyes suddenly turned red and he still held on to the old man's sleeve.
The old man took a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice: "A mere Beidi Barbarian Cavalry...my student is destined by fate. He will be invincible in every battle and take everything he attacks!"
At this moment, the old man's red eyes were full of dignity, and he was proud -
"Go! In this battle, the teacher will personally see you off. He wants you to come back with a great victory, from all over the world! When you are victorious, there will be no one in the world who dares not to surrender!"
Li Suining suppressed his tears, retracted his hand, held the gift in front of his eyes, bowed his head and responded: "Yes, student... will never let down the teacher's high expectations!"
Two days later, Li Suining set off with his army.
As expected, Taifu Chu sent him off in person, and all other officials were present, including King An Li Zhi who also came after hearing the news.
Seeing the figure getting on the horse, the officials still felt unbelievable that at such a juncture, the person who inherited the position of crown prince made such an unexpected choice. The battleground in Gyeonggi Province failed to make her look back. The place she wanted to rush to turned out to be the dangerous and desolate northern land...
Seeing the figure turning his horse's head and about to leave, Yushi Tu suddenly came out of the queue, his voice was high and full of respect, his hands fell on the ground, and the scholar's body actually knelt down to greet him:
"Your Majesty Tu De... send you to Your Highness!"
The rest of the people all bowed and saluted: "I would like to send you off to Your Highness!"
Wei Shuyi also saluted deeply: "I am waiting here, waiting for your highness to return home as soon as possible!"
The shouts on the ground were sincere, the wind blew through the prostrate people, and the wind and clouds above the dome were constantly changing.
At the same moment, in the other courtyard used for the emperor to "recuperate", the Holy Emperor raised his upper body from the sickbed and looked out the window: "...Is the Crown Princess setting off with her troops?"
"Your Majesty, it's exactly..." The serving maid lowered her voice and said, "All the officials have gone to see me off."
"Okay..." The Holy Book Emperor nodded lightly, his eyes were a little distracted, and his voice was as low as the wind: "Except for not recognizing me... everything else, she is still the same as before."
The gaze of the Holy Emperor was fixed outside the window, above the blue sky. No matter how the wind and clouds passed by, the scorching sun stayed in its own place and followed its own path, unchanging for hundreds of millions of years.
Following Li Suining was the advance cavalry.
The Chinese army led by He Wuhu also left the camp one after another, and at the end was the baggage army.
Chang Sui'an is in charge of the rear army and is currently making final arrangements in the military camp.
At this time, a soldier suddenly came to deliver a message.
Chang Sui'an was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't dare to delay and hurried out of the camp to meet the visitor.
It was early summer, and the vegetation was lush. Princess Xuan'an was standing under an old locust tree with lush leaves, and two maids were standing ten steps away.
Seeing this, Chang Sui'an signaled the sword boy not to follow him. He quickly walked forward and saluted the eldest princess: "Your Highness!"
The eldest princess held his elbow, asked him to stand up, and asked, "Are you about to leave?"
"Yes, an hour later!" Chang Sui'an asked curiously: "How come His Highness came here in person?"
The eldest princess only gave him a forced smile and did not answer his words. Instead, she asked hesitantly: "Sui'an... Do you have to go to the dangerous place in the north?"
Chang Sui'an was stunned for a moment before nodding: "Your Highness, my soldiers are waiting for me."
He went a little late because he had to wait for Ning Ning to come with him, otherwise he would have to leave with the Grand Governor.
Facing the young man's clear eyes, the eldest princess felt her heart tightening. She lowered her voice and asked, "But Beidi's soldiers and horses are so ferocious, are you really not afraid of them?"
Chang Sui'an puffed up his chest subconsciously and wanted to answer "Of course I'm not afraid", but looking at the eldest princess, for some reason, he suddenly felt like he didn't want to be brave and tell lies...
"To be honest..." Chang Sui'an touched the back of his neck with some embarrassment: "I'm still a little scared."
"Those barbarians are all as tall as me... They are also fierce, and their horses are fierce. When they fight, they shout words that we don't understand. They also laugh and shout when they use their swords to kill. They are more fierce than us Han people." A hundred times more rude! At first I was terrified when I heard those voices, and I had nightmares about their laughter.”
"One time when I woke up, I was thinking that a tall young man like me, wearing armor and holding a knife in his hand, with the support of his powerful father and sister, would feel scared...those who have no ability to protect themselves. Aren't ordinary people more afraid?”
Chang Sui'an: "From that time on, I thought that we must not let those barbarians enter the territory of Dasheng and let them bully us, the people of Dasheng!"
Hearing this, the eldest princess Xuan'an turned her face away, and she couldn't bear to look at those honest and upright eyes any longer.
For a moment, she held back her tears, bent down, picked up a bundle in the grass at her feet, and stuffed it into Chang Sui'an's arms: "...I made a robe, take it with you!"
Chang Sui'an was a little surprised: "Is this...done by you?"
The eldest princess forced a smile: "If you don't do well... just make do with it."
Chang Sui'an was stunned for a while, looking down at the bundle in her arms, her eyes slowly turned red, and she choked with sobs: "Your Highness, no one has ever specially made a robe for me. You are just like my mother..."
The eldest princess was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but ask: "Have you ever thought about your mother-in-law?"
"Of course." Chang Sui'an suppressed her tears and said, "But for some reason...she never comes to my dreams."
He was clearly a young general who was so powerful and powerful, but when he said these words, it made people feel pitiful and aggrieved.
The eldest princess' heart felt as if she had been stung by countless bees, and her eyes suddenly turned red. She couldn't help but said: "Silly boy, actually..."
At this time, a shout suddenly came from the direction of the military camp: "General Chang, Master Xuanyangzi is here, please come over!"
Chang Sui'an naturally already knew who Xuanyangzi was, so he subconsciously turned around and said, "Here he comes!"
After saying that, he turned back to the eldest princess and asked: "What is your highness going to say?"
"It's not an important matter, let's go." The eldest princess quickly gathered her thoughts and said, "It won't be too late until you make a triumphant return."
"Oh, okay!" Changsui An responded and said goodbye: "Your Highness, take care of yourself!"
The eldest princess nodded and watched the young man holding the bundle and leaving. Her heart seemed to be torn out, her fingers were tightly twisted, and countless words came to her lips, but she swallowed them repeatedly.
The next moment, the young man suddenly stopped and ran back quickly after seemingly hesitating for a moment.
The eldest princess' eyes warmed up and she subconsciously took two steps forward.
"Your Highness..." Chang Sui'an was a little embarrassed, but said seriously: "What you wanted to say just now, why not tell me now! I'm afraid..."
He wanted to say that he might not be able to come back, but he felt it was unlucky and changed his words: "I'm afraid that you might forget it again!"
I don't know why, but when he left just now, he always felt very worried in his heart, as if he had left something very important behind him.
Although his father always scolded him for "having a **** intuition," Chang Sui'an still couldn't help but listen to his intuition.
Looking at the tall young man with earnest eyes who came back again, and feeling the bond that only flesh and blood can only have, the eldest princess Xuan'an suddenly burst into tears.
Chang Sui'an was startled and scrambled: "Your Highness, what's wrong with you..."
"Silly boy, you shouldn't call me Your Highness..." The eldest princess shook her head and said with tears, "I am your aunt, your biological aunt!"
Although she had made an agreement with Chang Kuo, neither party could rashly explain the truth to the child without the other party's presence and consent... But at this time, she looked at such a good and heart-wrenching child, how could she let it go? Only send him away as "Her Royal Highness the Princess"!
Chang Sui'an was stunned, and the baggage fell from his hands and fell at his feet.
Goodnight everybody
