Hello Chang’an

Chapter 377: A game of salvation that has been planned for decades

Lu Xiucai gave a brief oral summary of the affairs of the Governor's Office to Chang Sui Ning. In short, everything was progressing normally and no major problems occurred.

Chang Suining felt relieved after hearing this: "I think Ran Nu Shi has been working hard during this period, and Wang Changshi still has money to teach them."

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Lu." She looked at Lu Xiucai and asked him to go back and rest.

Lu Xiucai saluted: "Your Excellency is the one who works the hardest. It's my honor to be able to help you a little bit... Your Excellency should rest earlier and take care of yourself."

Chang Suining smiled and nodded to him.

After Lu Xiucai retreated, Chang Suining continued to read the letter at hand. Xi'er picked out the crooked wick and the oil lamp became brighter. However, Xi'er was still a little worried and said: "Girl, otherwise you can read it tomorrow." "It hurts your eyes like this. You just came back and haven't had a rest yet."

"I'm sitting here now, aren't I just taking a rest?" Chang Sui Ning said to Xi'er casually while reading the letter: "It doesn't matter about the eyes. Didn't Sister Mianmian ask someone to give me a few bottles of pills that are good for the eyes? Well, I kept eating it.”

That pill was made by Dr. Sun, who was good at treating eye diseases. Chang Sui Ning had been taking it for about a month. Recently, he felt that he could see things more clearly at night.

Seeing her insistence, Xi'er didn't dare to persuade her any more, and just said: "You were busy discussing things just now, and you didn't even take a few bites of food... I'll go and see what's in the kitchen, and I'll make you a bowl of tonic soup." good?"

Chang Suining nodded and said "hmm" without looking away from the letter in his hand.

Xi'er chopped half a chicken and blanched it in the kitchen, picked a fresh lotus root and scraped the skin, and took out an old ginseng. After washing it, she put it into the soup pot, lit the small stove, and simmered it slowly.

Ginseng and other supplements and medicinal materials were all added secretly by Meng Lie during these days. He told Xi'er to put more thought into Chang Suining's diet. Such a laborious method left no time for physical strength and brain. If you can no longer keep up with your diet, even an iron-clad person will not be able to bear it.

The soup simmered for more than half an hour, but Xi'er never left. The girl's diet must not only be careful, but also be careful. Although the discipline in the military is strict and the detection methods for spies are very strict, it is still better to be careful and not leave it to others. Anyone can take advantage of this opportunity - Yuan Xiang said this again and again. Xi'er felt a little dissatisfied after hearing this more often. Really, this kind of thing is what Xi'er, as a girl, is most useful for. Maid, how could you not know?

The girl is responsible for doing big things, and they are responsible for taking care of all the little things of the girl and not holding the girl back. This is the most basic thing.

But it's really strange. Why did Meng Dong's family from the capital suddenly come to the army and care so much about the girl? Xi'er was puzzled by this matter, but the Marquis did not have any special reaction to it. It seemed that they had known each other for a long time and only asked them to keep their original identities for the Meng Dong family...

Xi'er was very curious, but seeing that A Che had no reaction when dealing with Meng Dong's family, she thought that A Che knew something about the inside story, so she went to ask A Che in private. Unexpectedly, A Che shook his head without knowing anything and said: [I will do whatever the girl asks me to do. Of course I don’t need to know anything that the girl doesn’t ask me to inquire about. 】

Xier: […]

Damn it, her vicious loyalty and purity make her have too many personal distractions!

Ache's blind obedience and admiration for his girl was determined from the first time they met. Not to mention the Meng Dongjia appearing next to the girl, even if a dragon suddenly appeared next to the girl, he would not blink an eye, at most he would only He would ask the girl, "Do I need to keep the dragon in an open and honest way, or keep it hidden from others?" and then go back and study a hundred ways to raise dragons all night long.

Xi'er was in a trance out of boredom, and the soup was already ready.

When she returned to the tent with the soup, she was about to speak when she saw Ah Zhi making a silencing gesture towards her.

Xi'er looked over and saw that her daughter was still sitting cross-legged behind the koan, with her chin in one hand and a letter in the other, but she was already asleep.

But falling asleep like this is not an option. Xi'er put the soup down, knelt forward and called softly: "Girl, my servant will help you go back to the bed to sleep."

Chang Suining opened his eyes and realized that he had fallen asleep. He was really sleepy, so he stopped holding on and stood up and sat back on the couch, letting Xi'er help him take off his clothes and boots.

When Xi'er was about to help her girl lie down, she heard her girl ask in a daze: "Is the soup ready?"

Seeing that she still had appetite and wanted to drink soup, Xi'er hurriedly said "Okay". Upon hearing this, Ah Zhi immediately brought the soup bowl. Chang Suining took it and drank it all quickly.

While Chang Sui Ning was drinking soup, A Zhi had already brought warm water and cotton towels. Xi'er took them and wiped them with his girl.

After doing all this, Chang Suining fell on the couch and fell asleep.

She didn't know that during the period when she was not in the army, Meng Lie had quietly asked someone to change her pillow and mattress, and even the mat underneath was replaced. On the surface, she didn't see much difference, but she felt comfortable sleeping on it. Too much.

Chang Sui Ning didn't bother to pay attention to these. He just thought that he had been floating on the sea for a long time. As soon as he returned to the land, he felt comfortable everywhere. When he woke up the next day, he stretched out in relief. Feel refreshed.

As usual, Chang Suining got up early in the morning and went to the martial arts field to stretch his muscles. He also watched Chu Xing take the lead in training the soldiers. Then he went back to his tent and had breakfast before starting to take care of the unfinished business from yesterday.

Lu Xiucai arrived soon. With him helping with official duties, Chang Suining continued to open the unfinished letters from last night.

There were too many letters accumulated. If there was nothing important, she would scan most of them at a glance and put aside those that needed to be answered.

After reading more than half of it, a letter caught Chang Suining's attention.

Before she opened it, she saw the Tai Chi Yin and Yang pattern on the envelope.

At first, Chang Suining had the same idea as Yao Ran. She just thought it was a self-recommendation letter from some Taoist. She still opened it and read it because everything was going on at the moment, and she really needed someone who was good at observing the sky.

At sea, extreme weather can even determine the outcome of a naval battle.

Therefore, if you can predict the weather in time, you can avoid unnecessary dangers and take advantage of it.

The theory of Dasheng Feng Shui and Celestial Phenomenon has been around for more than a thousand years. Many Taoists who have really studied this way are well-deserved experts. This is an inheritance advantage that is far beyond the comparison of small Japanese countries. We should choose the best and make good use of it.

In addition, Chang Suining also found many old fishermen who were good at judging the weather at sea, and temporarily kept them in the army for consultation at any time.

Chang Sui Ning, who opened this letter with the intention of searching for talents, never expected that this letter actually came from the Tianjing Imperial Master.

Looking at the contents of the letter, Chang Suining's eyes gradually changed, and his fingers silently tightened the edges of the letter.

Tian Jing saw Wu Jue...

The crux of Wujue's "strange disease" stems from the magic circle under the Heavenly Girl Tower. It was caused by her... In fact, Wujue was supposed to die after she came back?

Wujue has always known the cause and effect... So, from the very beginning, he had planned to exchange his life for his life so that she could live again and he would die?

She had clearly asked him before if the formation would still have an impact on him in the future, but while he looked at the scars on his arms and said miserably, "It's all over," he was telling lies to her!

Looking at a person who is always doing misfortune, yet he never mentioned a single word about the real misfortune. No wonder when she left Beijing, he looked pitiful and asked her to take him with her. It turned out that he knew at that time that his time was running out...

Fortunately, there is still a glimmer of hope.

This glimmer of hope actually lies with her...?

Chang Suining frowned unconsciously. She read the letter quickly, but she didn't dare to miss a word.

Tian Jing told her everything.

Including when he and Wujue parted, Wujue's whereabouts were said to have started from Jiangzhou and headed northeast.

Traveling northeast from Jiangzhou, passing Huangshan, you will reach Xuanzhou. Going east from Xuanzhou, not far away is Hezhou... In this way, the news that the hidden stake handed to Menglie coincided with Wujue. At this time, Wujue should Just near Hezhou.

This can also be used to illustrate that the words in the Tianjing letter must be true.

Looking at the handwriting of Gu Xianfeng on the letter paper in front of her, Chang Suining repeatedly thought about whether Tianjing's words were credible or not. She thought about it from all angles, but she couldn't think of the possibility that Tianjing's letter deliberately deceived her.

Tianjing left the palace, and he stated frankly in the letter that he was surrounded by guards who were accompanied by holy orders. He deliberately avoided them when he wrote the letter, and promised to keep the secret for his friend Wujue - he called Wujue his friend.

He also said that if he had the opportunity to walk alone in the future, he would come to Jiangdu to visit him personally.

As for why he wrote the letter, Tianjing also stated the reason in the letter. There were two reasons in his writing. One was that he couldn't bear to see his friend alone, and the other was that he believed that she had the need and right to know the whole truth.

Chang Suining held this dense piece of letter paper, unable to calm down the turmoil in his heart for a long time.

So, her resurrection was not only due to the personal will of Meng Lie and Wu Jue, but also a game of salvation planned by Wu Jue's sect for decades?

Sitting quietly in the same place, Chang Sui felt that the world she was in was being torn and deformed by an invisible force, which made her feel that it was difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.

"grown ups?"

Lu Xiucai's slightly raised voice reached his ears. The moment Chang Sui Ning slightly turned his head to look at him, he felt that everything around him gradually returned to its proper place, and the illusion gradually dissipated.

Seeing that she had come to her senses, Lu Xiucai smiled and repeated what he had just said: "In this summary of Ran Nu's history, she mentioned the hanging of the plaque in Wuer Courtyard at the beginning of next month. She said that she had chosen a few days and wanted the adults to choose. One, and asked the Lord if he would like to go back to the city to hang the plaque in person."

Ever since the news spread that Chang Sui Ning was copying books and establishing the Wuer Academy to recruit students from all over the world, many literati have gathered in Jiangdu for more than a month, waiting for the completion of the Wuer Academy and asking about admissions. According to the rules, some have even begun to prepare for the exam on their own.

Not long ago, the Governor's Office also destroyed several "exam preparation dens". Some people secretly used the guise of "having relatives working in the Governor's Office and knowing the examination questions of the Second Academy" to defraud those students who were eager to enter the hospital.

After the liar was caught and brought to justice, the governor's office returned the stolen money to the deceived scholars and taught them not to worry about those crooked ways. If they committed the crime again, they would be banned from taking exams.

In order to better prevent this kind of thing from happening, Shen Sanmao also posted a notice outside the newly built wall of Wuer Hospital, stating that the test questions of Wuer Hospital have not yet been decided and there is no possibility of leakage. A warning to those who are pursuing their studies, cherish their wallets and stay away from scams.

The university halls in the hospital are still under construction, but the names have been announced. In order to advance the matter faster, plaques need to be hung first, and then the assessment can be decided. When everything is ready, it can be officially The plaque was unveiled and put into use, allowing students who passed the examination to enter and receive education.

Lu Xiucai gave Chang Sui Ning the dates of hanging plaques written by Yao Ran to review and choose.

Chang Suining looked at it and said, "It will be on the seventh day of next month."

"Then there are only eight days left." Lu Xiucai reminded again: "That day is the Qiao Qiao Festival."

Chang Suining nodded: "The origin of the Qiao Qiao Festival is to pray to God for skillful skills, not a so-called good relationship. To teach students a skill so that they can establish themselves in the world is in line with the original intention of Wueryuan. Again Moreover, in southern Fujian, there is also a custom of students setting up tributes and worshiping Kuixing on the night of July 7th in order to seek prosperity."

Folks often refer to the Qiao Qiao Festival as Daughter's Day. Hanging a plaque on this day also proves that there are no rumors that Wuer Academy is willing to recruit female students.

Lu Xiucai answered "yes", took notes in preparation for a reply, and then asked: "Then will your Excellency go back to preside over the hanging of the plaque?"

This academy is not so much Jiangdu's as it belongs to adults.

"Not necessarily. They don't have to wait for me to come back. All matters can be arranged as usual."

Lu Xiucai agreed and asked Chang Suining for instructions on other matters. After Chang Suining answered them one by one, he continued to open the remaining letters piled up.

While Lu Xiucai was writing, he quietly looked at his master. For some reason, his master was clearly taking care of business seriously, but at the same time he felt absent-minded, or that he was doing two things at once.

Is it because of the letter that distracted you just now?

After finishing all the accumulated matters, it was almost noon. Chang Suining picked up the letter from Tianjing, suddenly stood up, and said, "I will be out for a few days, so Mr. Lu needs to worry about things in the account."

Lu Xiucai didn't react at once, but he still hurriedly said "yes" and stood up to salute.

Changsui would rather take the sun and leave the tent.

Chang Kuo happened to be coming towards him. Chang Sui Ning was going to look for him. When he saw someone, he said: "Dad, I have to go out and return in six days at the latest. All major military affairs have been arranged well last night. During these six days, any matters involving military affairs or any objections will be dealt with by my father."

None of this is difficult for Chang Kuo, and Chang Suining is responsible for the important task of being the governor of Jiangdu, and because of the special nature of naval battles, resisting Japanese troops and even Japanese pirates is often not a war that can be ended in a short time. All kinds of special Therefore, she is not restricted by the commander's prohibition on leaving the camp at will during wartime. On weekdays, Chang Kuo, the veteran deputy commander, is mainly responsible for sitting in the army.

At this time, Chang Kuo nodded and asked, "Are you going back to the Governor's Mansion? What's the emergency?"

"No, I'm going to Hezhou to bring Wujue back."
