Chapter 180 Farewell (2)
After dinner, the two children spontaneously ran out to play.
Tang Ningning put away the dishes and went into the kitchen to wash up, and Gu Fengtuo followed suit.
"I'm here to help."
Tang Ningning lowered her eyes and asked while washing, "What are your plans?"
Gu Fengtuo brought the dishwater over. Hearing her question, he said calmly, "The marriage is not included. I have requested your Majesty's order to send troops to attack Ruoqiang in three days."
Attack Ruoqiang?
Tang Ningning paused while washing the dishes. In her memory, Zhou Dynasty had not taken the initiative to start a war for many years. Although the border areas were often invaded by Tatars, there had never been any major wars. Why did they take the initiative to attack Ruo now?
Qiang?
"Why?"
Gu Fengtuo rolled up his sleeves and said, "Ruoqiang is an important military strategic location. The imperial court has long wanted to recover it, but failed to take any action. It just happened to take this opportunity to remove it in one fell swoop."
"Besides, Ruoqiang has been secretly delivering messages to southern Xinjiang and the desert, and there are many running dogs of the chaotic party. If it continues to develop, it will not only be a disaster at the border, but also the city of Xiqiang will bear the brunt."
After hearing his words, Tang Ningning narrowed her eyes. These were probably not the important reasons.
Wouldn't the attack on Ruoqiang be an attempt to regain northern Xinjiang?
"By the way, I heard from people in the mansion that the Khan of the Desert has retreated to Mobei, while the Monan area has been occupied by others."
Gu Fengtuo was washing the dishes in his hands without changing his expression, "Yes, it's Uri Yeshi. He used to be the king of the Miya tribe. Now he is still married to Mobei Aba, which can ensure peace in the desert for a hundred years."
The king of the Miya clan?
Uri Yeshi turned out to be the king of the Miya tribe.
Tang Ningning was stunned for a moment. It was so surprising that she had been in the desert for so long and didn't notice anything. Then, she suddenly remembered something.
In Uri Yeshi's tent, she was injured and saw the human skin mask in the medicine box.
Is it possible that Wu Riyesi has been pretending to be a sick man and secretly controlled the entire mine, and the human skin mask is his disguise.
Thinking of this, fear arose in her heart, but luckily she didn't talk too much at the time.
"I remember you had a hada on you."
"Uh, yes, I accidentally dropped it during a fight in the mine."
As she finished speaking, the khata suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. She was slightly startled and looked up, only to see Gu Fengtuo holding the khata and handing it to her.
"It was sent by someone from Yeshi, and he said he would return it to you."
It was actually picked up by him.
Tang Ningning wiped her hands, took the hada, and stuffed it into her sleeve.
"What's the relationship between you two?"
Suddenly, Gu Fengtuo's plain voice came over. If you listen carefully, you can still hear a hint of awkwardness.
Tang Ningning put the washed dishes on the shelf and replied, "I was rescued when I was in the mine. I only talked about knowing him, not understanding him."
"Really?" Gu Fengtuo said with a dark look.
"What else?" Tang Ningning thought he was confused.
Gu Fengtuo also walked to the shelf with a plate, "Then why did he rush to deliver a hada all the way across the country?"
"I lived with the Miya tribe for a period of time before. His tribe gave it to me. Later, it went to the mines and was lost. He must have picked it up, recognized me, and sent it back."
After the words came out, Gu Fengtuo didn't say anything. His tall body was stuck in the small kitchen, which seemed a bit crowded.
"Stop being stuck here, I want to go out."
"where did you go?"
Tang Ningning pushed him away and said, "Go back to the house and pack your bags. I will take the children back to Da'an Town tomorrow."
But just after taking a few steps, Gu Fengtuo grabbed his hand.
"I will send someone to send them back, you--"
Tang Ningning looked back and saw that his face was hesitant to speak. She raised her eyebrows slightly, indicating that he would speak if he had anything to say.
"Can you - can you stay with me?"
After saying that, looking at his slightly red face, Tang Ningning felt as if the clouds had cleared away, the spring breeze had blown by, and all the haze suddenly disappeared, and she felt joy for no reason.
She was surprised by the changes deep inside her and did not move for a moment.
It wasn't until Gu Fengtuo pulled him into his arms that he came back to his senses.
"You--you let me go--"
"No, I won't let go." Gu Fengtuo felt her obedience, and stroked her head with his big hand, with a rare smile on his cheek, "I will never let go in this life."
"Are you - are you confessing?" Tang Ningning went straight to his heart.
Gu Fengtuo was startled in his heart. Confession?
He had never heard of these two words in his life.
"It's Shen Bai."
After saying this, Gu Fengtuo's face was startled, and he blushed for no reason. He looked very funny.
Tang Ningning chuckled lightly and broke away from his embrace.
Suddenly, the person was pulled and thrown into his chest again. It was so hard that Cadmium's nose hurt a little.
"Yes, light joy is like a wolf, deep love is like the long wind."
"A-Ning, when I return in triumph, I will promise you a golden dress and red makeup. I will marry you in all splendor and become my only wife."
The oath in her ears shocked Tang Ningning's heart. She tugged on Gu Fengtuo's sleeves until a touch of warmth fell on her forehead, and her whole body trembled as if she had been electrocuted.
"you---"
Tang Ningning touched her forehead and pulled away from him, her face burning red and her eyes looking shy and strange.
Gu Fengtuo looked at her movements and felt cute inexplicably. He chuckled and walked to the door, "Aning, I ignored you before when I joined the army. After the border affairs are settled this time, I will come back to marry you and give you
A grand wedding."
"Ok, I will wait for you."
Tang Ningning smiled, looking pretty and noble in green clothes, very charming.
The two sat on the threshold of the kitchen and talked for a long time.
"Do you really want me to stay here?" Gu Fengtuo will leave in three days, and she doesn't know how long she will have to wait here.
Gu Fengtuo tilted his head and looked at her, "Do you want to go to the military camp?"
Tang Ningning's eyes froze, what do you mean?
"If you are willing to follow me to the military camp, I will take you there."
"Really?" Tang Ningning's eyes lit up.
To be honest, it was such an honor to be able to see Gu Fengtuo's majestic appearance on the battlefield, and it was also the side she wanted to see the most.
"Of course. But you must be mentally prepared. On the battlefield, swords have no eyes, so don't dirty your eyes."
"It's not like I haven't seen him before," Tang Ningning replied with a faint smile.
Gu Fengtuo nodded, "One more thing. I have some clues about what you asked me to investigate before."
Looking at her pure eyes, Gu Fengtuo couldn't bear it, but he couldn't hide it. She had the right to know.
"Xiao Chuhan was brought to Ruoqiang by Chi Lian."
What?
Tang Ningning frowned and couldn't believe it.
"Why?"
