Meiwu Fort has prepared an exquisite and quiet small building for Chen Lie. Over the fort wall, you can see the mighty Qiuye River.
This actually means that the "Records of Military Training" will be listed as the top secret book of Taiwei Sect in the future, and non-Shangqifeng inner disciples are not allowed to study the military techniques contained in it.
Outside the Yanran Palace, Qin Muhou Dong Shou and Dong Ning, under the guidance of the palace's ceremony officials, first went to a courtyard to wait, waiting for the emperor to finish handling other matters at hand before he could spare time to summon them - Dong Pan was not qualified to attend the audience directly, but he accompanied him here.
Sun Qian and Su Yuan are both extremely smart people. At this time, they can understand with their toes that all this is not someone's meddling, but actually the intention of Qin Muhou Dong Shou himself.
Chen Hai had a good impression of Dong Ning for a while, but when he killed Jiang Chu in Fujiao Ridge, he was cruel and ruthless, which made Dong Ning dissatisfied and separated from him. Although they met from time to time, Some time ago, Dong Ning lived with Dong Pan and Wu Xiong in Juquan Ridge for a while, but the relationship has always been distant.
Chen Hai was in charge of the army at Fujiao Ridge and killed Jiang Chu, the favored son of the Jiang family. Du Yong and Chai Yu, the favored sons of the Du family and Chai family, were all crippled by Chen Hai. Jiang, Du, and Chai were all whipped. They were so angry that they wanted to join forces to destroy Zhaoyang Tinghou. At that time, Chen Zhang, Su Yuan, and Sun Qian were also in panic. Who would have thought that in the end, it would be the eldest son Dong Chou who would personally summon the three clan leaders to the Shenhou Mansion to punish them. Reprimand and settle the matter
Comparing people to others is irritating. Chen Hai has not yet entered the Mingqiao Realm. In terms of cultivation, he is comparable to Chen Zhang, Sun Qian, and Su Yuan. However, at this time, there are so many disciples in the late stage of the Piling Realm in Hexi and even direct descendants of the sect. Who dares to stand up and say that he is more capable than Chen Hai
Just imagine the entanglement of interests behind this, and use it to measure Chen Hai's status in Hexi at this time. What else can Chen Zhang bring to compete with Chen Hai
This is enough to prove that Chen Hai's status among the younger generation in Hexi is beyond the reach of the direct descendants of ordinary clans.
"Princess Yuecheng is the proud daughter of the Dong family. She is superior to others. I don't care whether her temper is good or bad. What does it have to do with me?" Chen Hai never guessed that there were so many calculations going on behind the scenes that he didn't know about. When he saw his uncle suddenly He still felt strange when he mentioned Dong Ning, so he smiled and said, "To be serious, Senior Sister Dong is quite kind to others."
"You have mentioned Chen Hai more than thirty or fifty times along the way." Dong Shou looked like a loving father at this time. He seemed to have completely forgotten his dislike for Chen Hai and said with a smile, " Is it possible that if other people mention your engagement with him at this time, they won’t be angry?”
Thinking of the scene in Qiyunling, Chen Hai felt funny just thinking about it.
Based on this alone, let alone Chen Zhang, even the unsuccessful direct descendants of the Dong family have a lower status in Hexi than Chen Hai.
As Chen Lie's adopted son, he has always been responsible for Chen Lie's doting on Chen Hai and letting Chen Hai take his place in the Zhaoyang Tinghou Mansion. Therefore, he is always on guard, and even intentionally or unintentionally thinks of stepping on Chen Hai. He will never be able to stand up from his feet, but who would have thought that Chen Hai would win the title of No. 1 in the Northwest Territory after participating in the academy election
At this time, Hexi was also facing considerable defensive pressure. He could still use Qin Muhou Dong Shou and Zhaoyang Hou Chen Lie as generals to lead 20,000 cavalry to the capital, which was considered a positive response to Emperor Yitian's will.
Regardless of whether Wen Boyuan and Fan Chun deliberately allowed the rebels to sneak into Jiyang County under the instruction of the British King Ying Shu, the strong rise of the Xiyuan Army itself was the temporary end to the imperial power struggle that had lasted for several years. The key to the curtain.
Chai Rong, Xie Wenchan and others could only return to Hexi in despair.
Qin Muhou Dong Shou could not go to Chen Lie in person to mention the marriage again. No matter what, Zhaoyang Tinghou Mansion had to take the initiative to bring it up. Qin Muhou Dong Shou had a step down.
"What the hell," Dong Ning was surprised and embarrassed when he heard his father mention this matter, and complained, "Father is right, he wants to meet the emperor, and he still makes fun of Ning'er!"
Chen Hai had an engagement with Dong Ning, the princess of Yuecheng. At that time, the Dong family wanted to marry the Yao family in exchange for the Yao family's support in Yanjing. However, as Chen Hai was expelled from the Yao family, this engagement naturally fell into place. It was abolished. No one would be unhappy in front of Dong Shou, the Marquis of Qin Mu, and would mention this matter.
Although he had a deep grudge with Chen Zhang before, Chen Hai didn't take it to heart at this time and believed that Chen Zhang would not cause trouble to him again.
Seeing the smile on the corner of Chen Hai's mouth, Chen Lie also burst out laughing. He thought about finding an opportunity to formally mention the matter to Qin Muhou Dong Shou and re-confirm the marriage. Thinking about Chen Hai and Dong Ning is already quite old.
"Uh!" Chen Hai was stunned. No matter how stupid he was, he knew exactly what his uncle meant by this.
And if his marriage to Dong Ning really comes to fruition, it will be a good opportunity to get rid of Wen Boyuan and Ying Shu's control.
Chen Hai didn't know why his military exploits in Chishan City were suppressed in the end, but Chen Zhang, Sun Qian, and Su Yuan knew it well. However, just when they thought that the marriage was completely gone, on the way eastward with the army, someone mentioned the marriage intentionally or unintentionally, and someone even came to Chen Lie to arrange the matter.
At the beginning, Chen Hai was elected first in the northwest region and was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the first capital of the Xiyuan Army to train new recruits. At that time, no one was optimistic about this matter.
And Qin Muhou Dong Shou named Chen Lie as his deputy general this time, and this is probably his intention!
"You really can't remember that you had an engagement with Dong Ning?" It was only then that Chen Lie confirmed that Chen Hai's memory of the engagement had been erased by Yao Chenzhou.
For the Xiyuan Army to truly rise, no one can ignore the key role played by the Battle of Zuojin Valley. At this time, no one can ignore the value of "Military Training Records", which means that even if Chen Hai is no longer in Xiyuan at this time, No matter what important general position Yuan Jun holds, no one can ignore his status.
Across the Qiuye River is the base camp of the Xiyuan Army. At this time, a group of new soldiers were recruited for training. Suwei General Zhao Rong was in charge of the training of the new soldiers.
Seeing that Dong Ning was both ashamed and happy, Dong Shou laughed and stopped mentioning this matter. However, Dong Pan's expression suddenly sank behind him.
In the entire three counties of Hexi, there are only thirteen people who have truly entered the Dao Dan realm, including the first elders of the Taiwei Sect halls and the most core disciples of the Dong family; and even if Chen Lie and other strong men in the fake elixir realm are included Including them, the total number is only twenty-one.
Zhao Shan and Qian Wenyi escorted Chen Qing back to Yulong Mountain and brought back a copy of "Records of Military Training". However, at the same time as they accompanied Chen Qing back to Yulong Mountain, orders from the Taiwei Sect and the Imperial Guard General's Palace were transmitted to the Medicine Garden. Village, and directly exchanged the manuscript with a large amount of rewards.
"You and Princess Yuecheng are both practicing in the Academy, and you have spent a lot of time together in Yanjing, right? What do you think of Princess Yuecheng's temperament?" Chen happily talked about the past and learned about some situations in Juquan Ridge. Lie directly turned the topic to Dong Ning.
Su Yuan, Sun Qian, and Shen Kun were fortunate enough to have the opportunity to read the "Records of Military Training" before the sect's decree was transmitted; the Imperial Guard General's Office weighed it up and directly included Su Yuan, Sun Qian, and Shen Kun in the top seven. A disciple of the Peak Nei Sect.
To be honest, Dong Ning knew about their engagement from the beginning, and she still treated him like this. Compared with those noble ladies of the sect, I don't know how much better her temper was.
No matter what these three families think in their hearts, as long as the eldest son Dong Chou is in power, they will never dare to mention this matter again.
Not to mention Chen Lie, Su Yuan, Sun Qian, Chen Zhang and others have cultivated to the late stage of the Spiritual Realm, and their eyesight is far superior to that of ordinary people. When drinking tea and talking by the window, they can also see the generals training in the Fujiao Ridge camp on the other side. .
During this period, Chen Hai carefully planned and planned, always looking for opportunities to escape from the control of Ying Wang Ying Shu and Wen Boyuan, but he did not expect that the opportunity would be at his fingertips.
Dong Shou, the Marquis of Qin Mu, led his troops to the capital, and had to go directly to Yanjing City to report to the Taiwei Mansion, waiting for the emperor's summons and reward; Dong Shou and Chen Lie, as the commander-in-chief and deputy commander-in-chief of an army, could not leave at the same time. After being stationed in the camp, Chen Lie temporarily stayed in Meiwu Fort to replace Qin Muhou Dong Shou and control 20,000 Hexi soldiers and horses.
…
In front of King Yingshu and Wen Boyuan, his uncle Chen Lie could not protect him, but he could become the core disciple of the Dong family. Even if Wen Boyuan and Ying Shu found that the Guhun Pill did not work, would they be able to protect him at this time? Are you going to break up with Mr. Dong
Dong Ning and his father Dong Shou have not seen each other for more than two years.
Compared with when Emperor Yi Tian left Yanjing with Ge Xuanqiao at the beginning of the 72nd year, Chen Lie's momentum at this time was more restrained and calm. He had already half-stepped into the fake elixir realm of Tao elixir realm, which was already considered in Hexi. An important person in the world.
He achieved great military exploits in Chishan City, but he still did not wash away the infamous reputation of the Yao family's abandoned son. Dong Shou, the Marquis of Qin Mu, probably felt disgusted when he heard his name; it is no wonder that he first met Dong in the Qiyun Ridge of the Taiwei Sect. Ning Shi, Dong Ning always came to trouble him, and it turned out that the root cause was here.
Standing in front of Chen Hai at this time, Chen Zhang only felt bitter in his heart.
Chen Lie no longer serves as the Deputy Protector of the Yulong Camp. Su Yuan, Sun Qian, and Chen Zhang have also been idle in the Yulong Mountain Pharmacist Garden for the past two years, and they are always paying attention to the development of the situation in Yanjing. They really did not expect that , the situation in Yanjing will have many twists and turns, and when it finally develops like this, so many things will happen that they could not have expected.
Chen Hai didn't care about Dong Shou and Dong Ning's father and daughter entering the palace to meet the emperor. After nearly two years apart, he was very happy to meet again with his uncle Chen Lie, who cared about him the most in the world and had given him the greatest help over the years. .
"..." Chen Hai suddenly understood many things that he had been struggling with before.
"What if it's relevant?" Chen Lie asked with a smile.
Even in such a large family, the relationship between children and parents is very distant. Except during holidays, Dong Ning rarely has the opportunity to see his father. The relationship cannot be said to be very deep, but when he can see his father in Yanjing City, Dong Ning Ning was still very happy, chirping like a little girl about what had happened during her two years in Yanjing.
Even if both of them have to wait until they enter the Mingqiao realm before considering having children, they can still live together at this time.
