Along the way, Mrs. Shepherd's Purse and others were talking about Chang Sui Ning's deeds in Hezhou.

Lao Kang and others couldn't help but listen, and the more they listened, the more incredible they became.

They were all shocked, including Xi'er and A-Zhi, but A-Dian was the one with the smallest reaction, thinking that everything was normal.

Finally, Lao Kang slowly dismounted and looked at Chang Ren beside him.

Lao Kang still remembered that when the girl wanted to pretend to be a soldier and sneak into the military camp, he tried his best to oppose and dissuade her, but the girl persisted and said, "I can just let Uncle Ren teach me on the way. I learn things very quickly."

so……

Lao Kang couldn't help but ask Chang Ren: "...are these what you taught the girl?"

"..." Chang Ren almost fell off his horse.

He wants to teach, but to teach others skills, he must first have the skills himself...

Although this kind of false reputation is tempting, Chang Ren does not dare to accept it: "I followed the girl's instructions and went to Xuanzhou early to deliver the message. When the girl defended the city and killed the enemy, I did not follow her!"

Lao Kang frowned: "That's right, you don't have the ability either..."

Where did that girl learn that?

Just follow the general and watch and hear?

"I taught you."

Chu Xing's voice sounded from his side.

Lao Kang turned his face and looked over, only to see Chu Xing's expression was a bit complicated: "In the past, when I taught the girl martial arts in Beijing, the girl would always ask about fighting the enemy on the battlefield, and I would often talk to the girl about the art of war..."

But he never thought that those casual words would create such a girl.

This feeling of thinking that he had just planted a bean seed, but then turned around and saw a golden mountain suddenly emerging from the soil... Chu Xing was shocked, relieved, and also worried.

He began to think about whether there was anything wrong with what he had taught him in the past. It would be very bad if he brought a crooked girl.

Along the way, Chu Xing was reflecting.

During the break, he came to Chang Kuo, saluted, and expressed his worries in a vague way.

He heard the descriptions from the ladies that the girls were too brave on the battlefield, and the danger caused by underestimating the enemy was secondary. What Chu Xing was most worried about was the mental state of his girls.

The first time I went to the battlefield, I felt no burden when taking someone's head. It was said that I could still talk and laugh while holding the person's head...

After hearing this, Chang Kuo looked at him with a slightly distorted face: "You mean...my daughter is a born killer?"

"This subordinate is just worried that the girl will go astray." Chu Xing was worried: "After all, the girl's skills were mostly taught by his subordinates, so the subordinates also have the responsibility to discipline and restrain the girl..."

He looked like he was "concerned not only for the girl but also for the common people in the world".

Chang Kuo: "..."

What gave him this unparalleled confidence?

"The general must have seen examples of people who are talented but murderous..." Chu Xing was really uneasy. Hearing that the girl behaved like this, he clearly had early symptoms.

"My Chang family is full of loyalty and uprightness, and even the ants in the house have been cultivated to be upright." Chang Kuo said: "And we have to protect him with the heroic spirit of His Highness the Crown Prince... How can we raise a monster with a murderous nature?"

Chu Xing wanted to speak but stopped.

The Chang family is a family of righteousness, but what if too much is sucked away by Lang Jun? After all, Lang Jun is too righteous...

Soon Vice General Jin came over and said: "General, we can reach Chuzhou before dark - but the scouts from the front came to report that there was a team of 100 people coming from the direction of Chuzhou. They seemed to be people from the Chuzhou government."

Chuzhou government?

While Chang Kuo was thinking, Chang Suining came over carrying a kettle.

The father and daughter discussed the matter in Chuzhou.

If they wanted to intercept Li Yi as quickly as possible, they would not be able to bypass Chuzhou. Taking the road through Chuzhou was the fastest way.

But Chang Sui Ning felt that since he was already here, in addition to borrowing the road, it would be better to borrow something else along the way.

After the discussion was completed, they mounted their horses and continued on their way.

On the way, Chu Xing did not know when he drove his horse to follow Chang Suining.

Chang Suining turned to look at him: "Is Uncle Chu's injury okay?"

"Thank you for your concern, girl. I haven't hurt any critical parts." Chu Xing then also started to care about her, from her physical injuries to her mental condition.

"It is rare for a girl to achieve such great achievements on the battlefield for the first time. It can be said that she became famous in one battle." Chu Xing sighed with emotion before asking, "I wonder if the girl ever felt scared when she killed the enemy?"

Chang Suining's words "not afraid" came to his lips and he stopped in time.

"Afraid." She glanced around, then moved closer to Chu Xing, and then lowered her voice and said: "After killing the enemy for the first time, I hid and cried for a long time. I didn't sleep for a whole night. I was covered in cold sweat like water.

After washing, my hands were shaking and my teeth were chattering."

Chu Xing felt happy, it was a good thing.

Chang Suining added: "I also had nightmares all night long."

Chu Xing nodded and was about to reassure her that this was normal, but then he felt something was wrong: "...Didn't the girl say she didn't sleep all night?"

Where did the nightmare come from when I didn’t sleep?

Chang Sui Ning's expression remained unchanged: "I didn't sleep the first night, and had nightmares the second night."

It's just a matter of time arrangement and management.

Chu Xing is clear.

"Don't be afraid, girl. Life and death are determined on the battlefield. Everyone has their own position. Death and injury are unavoidable..." He comforted him first, and then said: "But all things have spirits, and man is the leader of all spirits. Human life can be killed but not abused.

You can be good at killing the enemy, but you must not kill indiscriminately...you must also have a heart of reverence, which is the long-term solution."

Chang Suining looked helpful and nodded: "I've written it down."

Chu Xing felt a little relieved, but he did not relax his vigilance. He felt that he had a heavy burden on his shoulders and must guide the girl to the right path.

Sensing Chu Xing's thoughts, Chang Suining was worried that he would tell him a bedtime story every day that promoted the truth, goodness and beauty of human nature.

After traveling like this for another twenty miles, we met head-on the group of 100 people coming from Chuzhou that Vice-General Jin mentioned.

The horses and carriages stopped, and a middle-aged man in official uniform stepped out of a carriage. He was about forty years old and had an upright face.

The man stepped forward and saluted: "We are the governor of Chuzhou, Wei Jun. I have admired the reputation of General Chang for a long time! Now I heard from the officials of the lower county that General Chang was passing through Chuzhou and came out of the city to greet him!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Chang Kuo unexpectedly raised his eyebrows and showed a smile: "Why did Governor Wei come in person!"

"When the official heard that General Chang had secured Hezhou and repelled the Xu army, he was really relieved, and he really admired General Chang's bravery and righteousness——"

Several more people came forward to salute and exchange greetings. Finally, Wei Jun saluted again and raised his hand to sincerely invite: "As usual, the general and other generals do not mind the humbleness of Chuzhou. We can rest in Chuzhou for a while. I have ordered you to do so."

We have prepared a feast to welcome the wind."

It is not uncommon to be entertained by local officials along the way during a march, especially for someone like Chang Kuo who has just won a battle, and there is no shortage of people who can make the most of the situation.

Chang Kuo thought for a moment, then raised his hands and clasped his fists: "Being respectful is worse than obeying orders, then I will bother Governor Wei!"

He added: "It just so happens that Chang has something else he wants to discuss with Governor Wei."

Wei Jun's face straightened up, and he suggested that Chang Kuo ride in the carriage with him, which would make it easier to talk on the road.

Chang Kuo did not refuse.

The group of people then headed to Chuzhou City. On the way, a Chuzhou military attache who was riding a horse and Chu Xing, who was also the leader, asked about Hezhou.

Chu Xing explained: "Chu has not gone to Hezhou with my general before, so he doesn't know much about Hezhou."

As he said that, he looked to his side: "When it comes to Hezhou affairs, my girl knows it best."

Girl?

Hearing these two words, the military attaché looked at the young man on the horse and suddenly realized: "Could this be the girl from the Chang family?"

"Exactly." Chang Sui Ning gave him a friendly smile: "I wonder what Li Canjun wants to ask?"

When they were greeting each other, the Chuzhou governor had already identified the man. He was a soldier from Chuzhou who joined the army, and his surname was Li.

Although the governor was the head of a state, local military affairs were mostly handled by soldiers, so Chang Sui Ning fell into the old habit of forming good relationships with others.

This Li Canjun had obviously heard about her incident in Hezhou. Although he looked at her with surprise, he did not look down upon her at all.

It took a while before he spoke, but first he asked about the Yun family.

Chang Suining was not surprised.

She once heard Yun Hui say that Governor Yun had an old relationship with Chuzhou's army during his lifetime. When Hezhou was first in trouble, Governor Yun sent people to Chuzhou to ask for help, but he did not get a reply.

Hearing Chang Suining talk about the Yun family's mother and son's efforts to protect the city, Li Canjun was silent for a long time, with a look of guilt hidden in his eyes.

Not going to support Hezhou was a knot in his heart. With the death of his friend, there was no possibility of untying this knot.

He didn't know what the point of asking these questions was at this time.

"It's good that Hezhou City can be saved." After a while, he just said: "It is really a great blessing for Hezhou that General Chang and Mrs. Chang can protect each other with their lives."

Seeing that he didn't want to say anything more and didn't explicitly mention his personal relationship with Governor Yun, Chang Suining took the initiative to continue the topic that should have ended: "I once heard Yun Erlang mention Li joining the army."

She needs to give this person a try. At this juncture, it wouldn't be a bad thing to get to know each other better.
To be continued...
