Chapter 314 Bamboo Curtain

8days ago Historical fiction 7
The gate of Changde City is open, and kaku... A large army of infantry leads the way, and thousands of iron shoes trampling on the road neatly creates a terrifying sound. This monotonous music is the most intuitive reaction of power and violence.

The streets inside the city gate were once again full of surrendered civil servants and generals. The people who had kneeled here before were from the Suzaku Army, but this time they were from the government.

Changde City staged this kind of conquest scene back and forth, which fully demonstrates the truth that whoever has the biggest fist is the ruler.

The people are no longer allowed to walk around the two main streets in the middle, north and south, east and west, but they did not stop people from watching. The streets were full of people watching the fun.

Watching is a great pleasure for the people to hear, if there is no danger.

So many people came out of the city now, which shows that everyone does not feel that the Suzaku Army is dangerous.

The Suzaku Army maintained an occupation in Changde for half a year not long ago, and the people in the market saw military discipline over time.

But that's all. People don't support Xiang King. The taxes of the Suzaku Army in the occupied areas are only heavy than those of the government, and they also half-grabbed and bought land and occupied many fertile land in the suburbs and distributed them to their soldiers. They were still within the scope of the people's endurance, so they had to watch it.

The marching troops ignored the civil and military officials kneeling on the roadside. After the infantry passed, cavalry came again, protecting a carriage and swaggered into the city gate.

The carriage is a common car with common decoration and style in the southern region. It is made of felt roofs to facilitate rain protection; like a house with a hanging mountain top, it has its regional characteristics.

Zhang Ning was in the car. He usually rode a horse at most, but this time he was riding a car. Perhaps he didn't want to show up in public at this time.

As soon as he entered the city, Zhang Ning lifted a corner of the bamboo curtain. He wanted to see the officials kneeling on the ground.

But by chance, I saw an acquaintance on the roadside, Dong.

His eyes couldn't help but stay on her until the carriage gradually moved forward and her figure disappeared from sight.

Zhang Ning didn't know why Dong was among the people for a while. A while ago, his whole body and mind were on a battlefield that was related to life and death. He really didn't ask about these things, and it was probably the one who warded off the cult.

Dong also saw Zhang Ning's face behind the bamboo curtain, and even walked forward a few steps along the street without hesitation, perhaps because he wanted to chase the carriage?She herself didn't know it either.

He came into the city as a winner.The people all over the city, the soldiers occupying the city walls were cheering, and the atmosphere was so lively and noisy.But somehow, Dong felt a sense of desolation in his heart.

The carriage disappeared into the abortion, but the face behind the bamboo curtain was still lingering in her mind.

As the winner of an unprecedented war, even Dong knew that he would get a lot because of this, but the heroic face did not have the pride that he should have as a winner; fortunately, it might not be, otherwise Dong might be more uncomfortable, because the greater difference in mood between them would make her feel more desolate.

There was a clear depressing look on Zhang Ning's face, not the melancholy of sadness in spring and autumn, but deeper than that; the gaze of her eyes, she was sure that Zhang Ning was paying attention to her, which made him feel a little better.

When Dong realized why he was concerned about what he thought, he could no longer control himself.

At the end of the war, Dong was released.But she was not grateful, and Zhang Ning hadn't cared about her for a long time, which made her very hurt and a little hatred.

Sometimes she would think about it in a wide range, and that would be right.

My husband encountered setbacks because of business. Even if his husband is gone and she has his own home and children, that is her destination.

Since the humiliation was safely covered up and I had no ability to change anything, I could just pretend that nothing had happened...

But she just couldn't extricate herself. Not only could she forget the blind date of her skin that day, but her tone could not be removed from his words and actions, and her reason became fragile.

The hatred in her heart was no longer Zhang Ning humiliated her, but his ignorance.

Whenever I was asleep late at night, I felt like a big rat was chewing her heart, and the torture was indescribable.She didn't know why this happened, she was frightened and helpless...

……

Zhang Ning returned to his former residence. As soon as he got off the carriage, he happened to find a leader of a cult ward off a cult nearby, so he asked about Dong.

The leader was not sure about this matter, so he rushed to find Chunmei, the matter that the prince personally inquired was a big deal, no matter how big or small, and people had a greater sense of awe of the prince after the war. A person's prestige was always based on what he had done and achieved what he had accomplished.

Chunmei rushed to the mansion and said: The leader had told us not to bother the prince in trivial matters, and he also said that there was no need to make things difficult for the wife anymore.Later, our people first arrived in Changde City. Mrs. Nayu had many slaves and houses in Changde, so I put her home... I asked her yesterday and she seemed to be going to the capital to take care of her son.

When Zhang Ning heard this, he felt relieved and said casually: Send someone to tell Mrs. Yu, so that she can be content with peace of mind. Although I will not let her husband go for the time being, I should not harm Yu Qian's life for the time being.

Chunmei laughed and came over and whispered: You are very concerned about your wife.

Zhang Ning said seriously: You should know whether you should say some things.Chunmei hurriedly said, "Don't worry."

Chunmei was about to leave, but Zhang Ning suddenly called her again and said: Forget it, don’t go to Mrs. Yu anymore.

Chunmei was even more surprised after hearing this, because it was not common for Zhang Ning to sway around, but she couldn't ask anything anymore, so she responded immediately.

After all, there was a woman who had a skin-loving relationship with her. She was not sold by a brothel. Zhang Ning could not be completely indifferent and careless. Chunmei mentioned that going to the capital to take care of her son made him change his mind and thought it would be better not to bother her anymore...

I have done something that I am sorry for, so there is no need to hold people in the fire pit.

Now that the danger pressure has dropped sharply, he had an idea: If someone was there to persuade him that day, just say that there is no need to do this, he would definitely not have done that.

But he didn't want to regret what he did. Now, he did it and did it. What's so great.

Soon Zhang Ning threw this matter away from his mind. He just returned to Changde and had many things big and big.

At present, we must quickly use the rich materials seized and not let them fall into the pockets of various private forces; fighting is to fight for money and grain, and materials are force, and we can no longer be as poor as in Chenzhou, and we are controlled by people, poor and short-sighted.

The most important thing in the near future is to prepare for entering Wuchang as soon as possible.
