While Xiao Yuanche and Guo Baiyi were waiting, hurried footsteps could be heard outside the door, and someone even shouted: "Father, father, the child is back!"
When Xiao Yuanche heard this, he immediately stood up from the recliner, looked at each other with Guo Baiyi, and both saw a look of relief in the other's eyes.
Guo Baiyi walked to the door first. As soon as he opened the door, he saw a young man in white running in very excitedly. Not far behind him, Boning in black followed closely behind.
"Master! I haven't seen you for a long time. Cang Shu misses you so much!"
Xiao Cangshu took a quick step and threw himself into Guo Baiyi's arms.
Guo Baiyi couldn't help coughing again when he pounced on him. Even so, he couldn't hide the doting look on his face.
"Ahem, cough, cough... Cang Shu, just come back safely! Okay!" Guo Baiyi looked very excited, rubbing Xiao Cangshu's head and said with a smile.
Boning stood behind him, nodding lightly to Guo Baiyi, as if they had met each other before.
Then, Boning hurriedly bowed to Xiao Yuanche and said: "My subordinate, Boning, has met my lord!"
With a smile on his face, Xiao Yuanche nodded and said: "Bo Ning, it's been a long and tiring journey all the way. Thank you for your hard work... Having more space and comfort will surely make you worry even more..."
Boning said hurriedly: "Young Master is smart and alert, but you don't need your subordinates to worry about you all the way..."
Xiao Yuanche then looked at Xiao Cangshu, but saw that he was still in Guo Baiyi's arms and refused to come out. Then he smiled and said: "Cangshu'er, you are almost an adult, why are you still so unruly?
Master has worked hard these days, and you still have to tire him..."
Xiao Cangshu finally left Guo Baiyi's arms and said with concern: "Yes, Master, I haven't been around for many days, and I see that your face has become even worse and your body has lost a lot of weight... Could it be that you are old and sick again?"
Made a mistake?"
Xiao Cangshu's concern is so genuine.
Guo Baiyi smiled and said: "It's okay. There are too many things in the army. I am also suffering from an old illness, so it's okay!"
Xiao Cangshu then said: "It's okay, it's okay. I came back first. Brother Su told me, but he will be back in a few days... I'll let Brother Su take care of you then!"
After Xiao Yuanche heard this, he asked: "Cang Shu, why didn't Su Ling come back with you?"
Xiao Cangshu was a young man at heart, so he nodded and said: "Yes, Brother Su Bohai still has a few friends, and he has to deal with some things, so Lord Boning and I came back first..."
When Xiao Yuanche heard this, he frowned slightly and said calmly: "Su Ling still has friends in Bohai? Why didn't I know..."
"Why not? Like Brother Zhao...Brother Wu...Brother Lin...Sister Wen...and Little Brother Qin...he all wants it"
We need to settle down first before we can come back... It's a pity that Brother Qitan and Sister Yingniang... they are both dead!"
When Xiao Cangshu said this, his expression darkened.
Although Xiao Cangshu is still young, he is still unusually smart. He seemed to say this casually, but he cleverly did not mention Sister Mu, Mu Yanqing.
Although he was not sure about Mu Yanqing's identity, from the words and deeds of Su Ling and Mu Yanqing, it seemed that Su Ling was deliberately concealing Mu Yanqing's identity from Boning, and he was keenly aware of this.
"Who...who are these? Why are people still dead..." Xiao Yuanche looked puzzled.
Xiao Cangshu seemed unwilling to say more, and seemed to be still excited about meeting again after a long separation. He only said: "Oh, I can't explain clearly. In short, if it weren't for Brother Su's many friends, our trip to Bohai would be too dangerous.
.....The specific father will be known by asking Mr. Boning."
Xiao Yuanche then turned back to look at Boning. He saw Boning calmly nodding towards him.
Xiao Yuanche then smiled at Xiao Cangshu and said: "Cangshu, you are tired from the journey. You go back to your residence first and have a good rest. I also want to talk to your uncle Boning and Master Baiyi...
..."
Of course Xiao Cangshu knew what his father meant, so he bowed to his father respectfully and withdrew.
After Xiao Canshu left, Xiao Yuanche waved to Boning and said: "You are tired too, sit down..."
But Boning's expression darkened, and he cupped his hands and said: "I don't dare, I'm guilty! Please deal with it, my lord!"
His unreasonable words made Xiao Yuanche and Guo Baiyi startled at the same time. The two looked at each other, and Xiao Yuanche said calmly: "Bo Ning... you went to the Bohai Sea, and then
If you come back without stopping, how can you ask for forgiveness when you come back?"
Boning then lowered his head and said: "The Bohai Shadow Division has really changed... It has already joined the Bohai Shadow Division... It's all because of the deputy governor of the Bohai Shadow Division, Yang Han...
"
"What!" Xiao Yuanche and Guo Baiyi both looked shocked.
Xiao Yuanche suddenly slammed the table and said with uncontrollable anger: "That's Bohai! The Shadow Department there can't have any problems! This is great! Boning, how do you manage the Shadow Department!"
Upon hearing this, Boning's face suddenly changed, his legs softened, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed and apologized: "My lord... Boning made an oversight, which is irrefutable... but Yang Han was in the Bohai Shadow Division
The status is very important, and the strength of the Sprites Division is no different from ours, not to mention that Bohai is still the hometown of the Sprites Division..."
Xiao Yuanche finally calmed down his anger and said in a cold voice: "You can do it. After all, it is beyond the reach of the whip. What about He Changjing, the commander of the Bohai Shadow Division? What does he do for a living? Why didn't he warn me if such a big thing happened? He is
Don’t you want his head?”
When Boning heard Xiao Yuanche mention He Changjing, his expression darkened, and there was a rare sad look on his face. He lowered his head and said: "He Changjing... He, he is already at the west gate of the Bohai Sea...
.He died heroically for his country!”
"What..." Xiao Yuanche and Guo Baiyi took a breath of cold air at the same time. Guo Baiyi was okay, but Xiao Yuanche had already stood up, his face was ashen, and after a while he said in a deep voice: "Bo Ning, what on earth is going on?
Let’s tell you what’s going on as soon as possible!”
Boning then nodded and said: "Before my subordinate came back, Su Changshi had already written a letter. I ordered him to send it to my lord as quickly as possible. I wonder if my lord can see it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone outside shouted: "Report! Report to the Prime Minister! The eight hundred miles of the Bohai Sea are urgent! The eight hundred miles of the Bohai Sea are urgent!"
Xiao Yuanche snorted and seemed to be happy and said: "It's such an eight-hundred-mile rush, but you fell back in front of it!"
Boning was startled and then said: "There is a battlefield between Bohai and us... maybe..."
Xiao Yuanche then rolled up his sleeves and said, "Put this matter aside and settle the accounts later!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier, covered in blood, with wounds on his face and body, staggered in. When he saw Xiao Yuanche, he only said one sentence: "Prime Minister...
.800 miles to rush... We passed by Shen Jizhou's camp. Shen Jizhou ignored this and rushed to 800 miles. No intrusion was allowed. He ordered random arrows to be fired, and his subordinates fought to the death..."
As soon as he said this, his vision went dark and he fell forward.
With quick eyes and quick hands, Bonin held him up. When he looked again, he found that the man had died.
Boning didn't care much. He took off the yellow cloth bag from his hand and took out Su Ling's souvenir. He saw that the letter and the yellow cloth bag were already stained with blood.
Xiao Yuanche hurriedly shouted: "Here comes..."
Two guards had already run in and took the messenger out.
Only then did Xiao Yuanche take the letter from Boning, but he was already furious. He gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Shen Jizhou, this thief! He is extremely arrogant! Xiao and him are inseparable!"
There were tears in Boning's eyes, and he said in a trembling voice: "My lord, you'd better take a look at what Su Changshi wrote in his letter, and then you'll have a rough understanding..."
Xiao Yuanche then lit up the wax lamp with his own hands, sat in front of the desk, and quickly opened the letter. After a quick look, he concluded that the letter was indeed Su Ling's handwriting - only his handwriting was so special that it looked like ghost drawings. generally.
Xiao Yuanche opened the letter and read it carefully.
Guo Baiyi took a sneak peek and saw Xiao Yuanche's expression changing under the wax lamp. He had so many emotions that he had never seen before, and it was difficult to hide them.
In his heart and memory, his lord has always been very deep in the city, and his joy and anger are indescribable.
But today, he is so abnormal!
Su Ling, Su Ling, what exactly did you write in this letter?
Xiao Yuanche read it for a long time, then handed the letter to Guo Baiyi without saying a word.
When Guo Baiyi read the letter, the expression on his face was constantly changing, just like Xiao Yuanche's.
Boning then made some additions.
Only then did Xiao Yuanche and Guo Baiyi understand from beginning to end what Su Ling had experienced during his trip, how difficult and dangerous it was, and what great achievements he had made.
After Guo Baiyi returned the letter, Xiao Yuanche stood up and burned the letter on the wax lamp.
Fang gradually regained his composure, and then he sighed: "It's not easy for Su Ling! He lived up to my expectations! Lived up to everyone's expectations! He has made a great contribution... Boning, Baiyi, you have all seen it, right?" It’s gone, and the Lanhai Pavilion is gone too…you know what this means!”
The two looked solemn and nodded.
Guo Baiyi sighed: "From now on, there will no longer be three major intelligence organizations in the world. No matter how careless the Spies are, Shen Jizhou will lose his arm!"
Xiao Yuanche nodded and said: "Yes, not only that, there is no one to suppress the Bohai River. Bai Yi, we can make good use of this..."
Guo Baiyi nodded heavily and said: "Not only these, Shen Jizhou's elite halberd guard was also severely damaged. With the current strength, it can no longer be recruited to the front line. From then on, the regretful Tianwei has no opponent!"
Xiao Yuanche sighed repeatedly and his heart was surging.
After a while, he regained his composure, and suddenly changed the topic: "It's just a pity, I'm so shocked, and those two great talents, Li Qitan and Du Shuyi, are both dead. If they don't die, they can be used by me... ...well!"
Guo Baiyi sighed: "This is fate, Prime Minister, there is no need to be too sad."
Xiao Yuanche nodded, suddenly raised his eyebrows and said: "Where is Zhao Fengyu? Are you sure he has come with Su Ling to serve me? If he comes, he and Kui Jia can defeat the Heavenly Guard together!"
When Guo Baiyi heard this, he was shocked and thought to himself, what a Zhao Fengyu, the prime minister can actually...
But Boning lowered his head and said: "As far as my subordinates know, Zhao Fengyu has left without saying goodbye and returned to Liyou Mountain..."
"What!..." A flash of anger flashed in Xiao Yuanche's eyes, as if he was muttering to himself: "Then Zhao Fengyu really thinks that I, Xiao Yuanche, am not worthy of his service?"
But in a flash, he seemed relieved and said: "That's all, the people in Liyou Mountain are somewhat arrogant. How can such a hero be obtained so easily from ancient times... Alas, I just have no chance to meet the Aojianlong. The appearance of the gun is really a pity!"
Guo Baiyi knew that his lord had committed the habit of loving generals again, so he smiled and said with relief: "My lord, don't worry, Su Ling is not the Prime Minister's confidant, he is Zhao Fengyu's junior brother, as long as Su Ling stays with the lord for one day, My lord, why should I worry that Zhao Fengyu will not come?"
Xiao Yuanche nodded and said: "Yes, I also have Su Ling... What Bai Yi said is absolutely true!"
Xiao Yuanche then looked at Boning and said: "Boning, please sit down. Although you are responsible for the oversight in the Bohai incident, fortunately, He Changjing was so brave that Su Ling knew about the incident in the Bohai Shadow Division in advance. It’s almost safe. As for the eight-hundred-mile expedited trip, Shen Jizhou overstepped his bounds. I can’t blame you!”
Boning felt as if he had been granted amnesty. He clasped his fists in a trembling voice and said, "Thank you, Lord, for your kindness!"
Then he slowly sat down.
Xiao Yuanchefang said: "Baiyi, look at this Su Ling, when did he learn to be so cunning? We are still thinking about what he thinks about the battle situation, whether to retreat or stick to the battlefield. How good is he? One push, two, six, five. , didn’t say a word at all, but instead pushed the matter entirely onto Wen Ruo. It’s really..."
Guo Baiyi had actually known for a long time how he could address this issue head-on with Su Ling's state of mind, and now it seemed that it was indeed true.
Guo Baiyi understood that no matter what, he would gain Xiao Yuanche's trust, and so would Su Ling. However, in terms of status, position, and reputation, the two of them were still far behind that person in Xiao Yuanche's heart. ah.
He knew this, so why didn't Lidya Su know this?
Guo Baiyi made up his mind and said: "Since Mr. Su said it, why don't you give it a try and really write a letter to Brother Wen Ruo and see how he thinks about it..."
Boning suddenly interrupted and said: "According to the news from the Bacheng branch of the Shadow Division, it seems that the situation has changed somewhere. It seems that Liu Xuanhan's men have retreated..."
"Oh? Is the source reliable?"
Xiao Yuanche raised his head and asked.
Boning said hurriedly: "Normally there will be no mistakes, but in view of the incident in the Bohai Sea, my subordinates need to verify it in person."
Xiao Yuanche then waved his hand and said: "No need, since it is all about Bacheng, then I will write a letter and ask Wen Ruo for advice! Baiyi, Yanmo!"
