Chapter 68 Sand and Dark Clouds-1

"Li Sihai, what do you mean?"

Chen Kang looked at Li Sihai with anger in his eyes. The two met in Xia Kingdom, and Chen Kang also heard about Li Sihai's reputation as wandering in flowers. Seeing his vigilant eyes, Li Sihai touched his nose awkwardly, took out a wrinkled silk paper from his arms. It was the secret order of the National Protection Mansion and took it to Chen Kang for him to see clearly. Chen Kang was about to reach out to get it, but Li Sihai shrank his hand and said in a deep voice: "Official affairs, Prince Kang, offended me." As he said that, he made a gesture of invitation.

When Chen Kang saw the seal of the Huguo Mansion, he looked at Han Ningshuang with some reluctance. He was afraid that she would worry, so he smiled lightly and said, "If Huguo Mansion really wanted to be punished, I handed over the identity of the Prince Kang Guo, and immediately came to Liaodong to the Han Army General's Mansion to take office under the command of Marshal Han." Han Ningshuang sighed slightly, but Chen Kang approached and whispered: "Who is Li Sihai? You know, be careful not to be fooled by him." He paused and said in a deep voice, "Zhao De, the captain of the Eighth Battalion of Chengying Camp, is my friend. If you have any questions, you can ask him for help."

He lowered his voice, but did not press too low. Li Sihai could hear every word clearly. He coughed awkwardly and asked, "Have you explained it clearly?" He reached out and made a "please" gesture. He had some friendship with Chen Kang. He knew that Chen Kang would not escape, and he would not have put his face in front of Han Ningshuang. The Bowang Marquis' Mansion did not want to form such an unjust bond with King Kang.

"I feel relieved when you see you are fine. Don't worry about me."

Chen Kang turned and left, Li Sihai watched him walk out of the room with some sympathy, as if seeing Han Ningshuang's eyes gave him infinite courage. Li Sihai bowed to Han Ningshuang and said goodbye to Han Ningshuang, and then closed the door after the personal soldiers accused him.

Han Ningshuang leaned against the window, her eyes changed several times, and she felt a little confused. She sighed, reached out to sort out her hair that was scattered by the wind, took out a can of daughter Hong and wine glass from the cabinet in front of the window, picked up the wine pot, poured it down, held the wine glass to her lips, and swallowed it in little by little. The daughter Hong's mouth was soft and her body felt a little warm. When Han Ningshuang was in her teenage years, she wandered around with the Han army generals. The north was bitter and cold, and she carried some wine and sweat with her, which could not only warm her body, relieve fatigue, and sometimes fill her hunger. After two glasses of wine, she didn't feel dizzy and her cheeks were dull. Her distracted mood was temporarily calmed down.

"Can you forget?" Han Ningshuang murmured to herself, "Just stop meeting again, you will definitely forget it."

At this moment, the personal soldiers reported that Mrs. Zhao was visiting. Han Ningshuang hurriedly put the wine and glass back into the cabinet, rinsed her mouth with a mouthful of tea, reached out and breathed a few breaths. She felt that there was no smell of alcohol, so she walked to the door to greet her.

Seeing that Han Ningshuang looked strange, Li Ruoxue held her hand and said carelessly: "Is there anything upsetting?"

Han Ningshuang smiled helplessly. In the entire Han Army General's Mansion, Li Ruoxue was the only one who treated her like an ordinary woman. Since the beginning of meeting, she gradually became accustomed to it and naturally treated Li Ruoxue differently. She didn't want to mention the matter just now, but when Li Ruoxue asked this, she whispered: "Chen Kang had just been here, but he had been taken away by Li Sihai because of his private fiefdom."

"How could this happen?" Li Ruoxue was a little surprised and immediately said worriedly, "Young Master Chen will not be a problem, right?" She met Chen Kang when she was in Dunhuang and knew that he was his husband's friend. Zhao Xingde also told her about Chen Kang's pursuit of Han Ningshuang.

"It's just a private fief. Although it's serious, there shouldn't be too much guilt," Han Ningshuang said slowly, "The King of Kang has no children, and the position of the prince is empty. Chen Kang's mother, Empress Kang, is the real sister of King Kang, and Chen Kang's civil and military talents are also extraordinary, so King Kang chose him as the prince. This is something that the five prefectures of Xia Kingdom want to do but cannot do. As long as it has nothing to do with the safety of the country, the five prefectures will try their best to maintain the position of Chen Kang's prince."

"So that's it. I see that Prince Kang is a person who values ​​love," Li Ruoxue sighed a little, and then smiled in a slight smile. "My sister is so good, I still want to be a lobbyist for my husband. According to the laws of Xia State, as long as the wife agrees, she can marry a fair wife again."

A hint of panic flashed in Han Ningshuang's eyes, but her cheeks became even redder, and she spat: "I'm so embarrassed, this can be laughed at."

Li Ruoxue said, "If it weren't for joking, would my sister be willing?"

A complicated expression flashed in Han Ningshuang's eyes. She looked at Li Ruoxue, and was silent for a moment before saying, "If General Zhao is interested, he is not without a mouth. Besides, if he is as fairy as his sister, he will have to be greedy and greedy. If this is true, I will scold him." Despite this, her cheeks became hotter and she looked down and did not dare to look at Li Ruoxue's eyes.

Seeing her expression, Li Ruoxue had a little clarity in her heart and whispered: "Don't care about him for now, do you want to?"

"Is I willing? Is it so much to marry Zhao Xingde? If Zhao Xingde was intentional, why didn't he reveal it at all? He deliberately acted cold and ruthless because he was afraid that Li Ruoxue would feel uncomfortable." Han Ningshuang felt panic. She took a few deep breaths of air and tried hard to calm herself down. She was silent for a long time, her expression changed several times, and finally sighed and whispered: "I have heard a story before, saying that there was an old couple, but it was a bit boring. Is my sister willing to listen?"

"Oh, what story?"

Han Ningshuang cleaned her hair, calming Ruchao's mood gradually calmed down, and said slowly: "In the past, there was an old couple with deep love. They were very poor and had no meat in their family, so it took a long time to eat a fish. The husband liked to eat fish heads, and every time he ate fish, he would give the fish heads to his wife. His wife liked to eat fish tails, and whenever he ate fish, he would give the fish tails to his husband. In this way, after many years, both of them gave the things they like to each other, but they didn't know that the other party gave the things they like to him."

Speaking of this, Han Ningshuang did not continue to talk. "General Zhao and his sister were in love with each other," she tried hard to calm herself as much as possible and said slowly, "But, I really don't want to be that fish." She almost used all her strength, gritted her teeth, controlled her emotions, and prevented the full tears from flowing out of her eyes. But the harder she used, the more painful she felt in her heart.

"It seems that I'm having trouble." Li Ruoxue felt sad, and felt relieved.

............

A few days after that, Han Ningshuang avoided Zhao Xingde, and Zhao Xingde didn't know the reason. Except for feeling strange, he didn't think deeper. Chen Kang was detained by Li Sihai and was about to return to Xia State, and he was also kept in the dark. Until that day, Jin Changtai brought the military newspaper of the Military Information Department and handed it to Zhao Xingde for reading.

"You succeeded as the magistrate of the Eighth Battalion, and the military office transferred me out of Liaodong?"

Zhao Xingde looked disbelief. Although the situation of the Liao army stabilized, there was still a lot to be done. He devoted all his efforts to the deployment of Suzhou, the settlement in the north, and the industry in Dongmuxing. He suddenly received the order to transfer from Liaodong. He felt like he was struck by lightning, and his chest felt depressed. The Liaodong foundation has been gathered for several years, similar to his own flesh and blood. Fortunately, Jin Changtai succeeded as the magistrate of the Eighth Battalion. Otherwise, it would be even more difficult to accept it if he handed it to others.

"I also want to congratulate Xingzhi on being promoted to the Longya Army Captain." Jin Changtai smiled, "This Longya Army Captain is a general. Brother Zhao is valued by the General's Mansion, and it is just around the corner to lead the army alone in the future." The Longya Army Captain is the same military rank as an ordinary general, so it is called a general. When the General's Mansion selects generals, it usually transfers the valued rank to the Longya Army. On the one hand, it strengthens its loyalty to the court, and on the other hand, it also raises the rank of the rank of the rank of the general. If there is a suitable opportunity in the future, the Longya Army Captain will be the general, which means being transferred to a foreign position rather than being promoted to a general.
