Duanmu Rong quickly stepped back and avoided Jiang Ning's face.
Standing a few meters away from Jiang Ning, Duanmu Rong looked at Jiang Ning and said excitedly,""Jiang Ning, don't think too much. Who would like a hypocrite like you? Stop daydreaming!”
"Also, what ancient language is that? Why haven't I heard of it after learning it for so long? You must be making it up!"
"Oh, oh."
Jiang Ning pretended to understand and nodded. Then, she looked at Duanmu Rong with a face full of amusement and said,"Hehe, Duanmu Rong, I was just joking. Don't feel guilty. Could it be that I really poked into your little thoughts?”
"You!"
Duanmu Rong pointed angrily at Jiang Ning. Looking at Jiang Ning's half-smiling face, a sense of powerlessness arose in Duanmu Rong's heart.
She didn't know why, but every time she was with Jiang Ning, she was always the one who was teased until she was speechless.
"Humph!"
Duanmu Rong stomped her feet and said loudly," Take care of yourself." She then turned around and pushed the door open.
Watching Duanmu Rong's graceful figure as she left, Jiang Ning's lips curled into a smile.
After such a ruckus, the huge rock that had been pressing down on his heart today was finally lifted a little.
Hu Ji looked at Jiang Ning helplessly." General, why do you always target Sister Duanmu? Could it be that you like Sister Duanmu? If that's the case, I also think that Sister Duanmu is not bad. Why don't I go with Sister Duanmu…"
At this point, Hu Ji also revealed a faint smile.
Seeing Hu Ji like this, Jiang Ning's expression froze for a moment, then he quickly waved his hand," Alright, alright, you don't have to worry about this. During this period of time when I'm out on an expedition, I'll leave the residence to you to manage."”
"Yes." Hu Ji replied softly and was about to speak again when she was interrupted by Jiang Ning.
After interrupting Hu Ji, Jiang Ning turned around and continued to look at the golden sunset that fell into the mountains. His voice then entered Hu Ji's ears.
"You can go down first. I want to be alone.”
Looking at Jiang Ning's desolate back, Hu Ji wanted to say something more, but in the end, she shut her mouth and shook her head helplessly. She then turned around and left.
"Creak."
Jiang Ning turned around when she heard the door close.
Clenching the small white porcelain bottle in his hand, Jiang Ning muttered in a low voice,""I appreciate your good intentions. I hope I won't use this thing this time. Sigh!”
As he spoke, Jiang Ning kept the small white porcelain bottle.
After all of this was done, Jiang Ning's gaze was gloomy, as if he was talking to himself, but also to the air.
"This is a chance for me, and also a chance for me to take the postgraduate entrance exam. If I pass it, it will be like a dragon swimming in the nine heavens. If I can't pass it, it will be a bottomless abyss!”
"Xiongnu Royal Court, hehe, since you've offended my Jiangning, I'm afraid your fate has already been decided.”
……………
On the vast grassland.
On the grassland, there was a huge city that had been standing on the grassland for decades.
This city was like a holy land to the Xiongnu on the grasslands.
To Great Qin's soldiers, this was a poisonous thorn in their hearts.
This city was where the Xiongnu royal court was located.
At this moment, a group of Xiongnu people were gathered around the city wall and laughing loudly as they looked at the city tower.
Looking in their direction, they saw dozens of dead bodies hanging on the city tower.
The corpse of an old man with white hair and a white beard, covered in blood, was hanging in the middle.
"Haha, that old Che Qu is nothing much. He was still captured by our Xiongnu cavalry!”
A Xiongnu man laughed proudly.
The Xiongnu man's laughter caused the surrounding Xiongnu to laugh along with him.
At this moment, one of the slightly short men looked at the Xiongnu man and said with a flattering expression,"General, you're still the most powerful and domineering. Those Qin soldiers can't even withstand a single blow.”
The Xiongnu man looked at the short man with disdain." You're such a bootlicker!”
As he spoke, the Xiongnu man turned a little smug." However, what you said this time is true. Those Qin soldiers are not to be feared. Once our Xiongnu cavalry comes out, those Qin soldiers will all flee.”
"Oh right, Sir, I heard that this old Che Qu is a benefactor to Jiangning and is also an old superior. Do you think Jiangning will bring troops this time?”The short man continued.
However, he did not know that his words had caused the Xiongnu man's expression to change.
"Jiangning!"
The Xiongnu man called out this person's name in an inexplicable voice.
Then, the Xiongnu man glared at the short man with an extremely vicious gaze.
The short man was stunned at first, but then he seemed to realize something and hurriedly begged for mercy,"General, this one knows my mistake. This one misspoke. I hope Sir will let this one off this time.”
As he spoke, the short man begged the Xiongnu man.
After the Xiongnu man coldly glanced at the short man, he ignored him and allowed him to kneel and beg for mercy.
He quickly left the city gate tower and arrived at a deserted corner.
At this moment, the Xiongnu man's face was already covered in sweat.
Jiangning!
Half a year ago, the Xiongnu man had never even heard of this name.
However, in the past six months, the Xiongnu had only heard the name Jiangning in the ears of the various tribes.
Some Xiongnu people even called him a demon, a demon of the grasslands!
However, this was not the reason why the Xiongnu man was so flustered.
A month ago, the Xiongnu man and his leader went to the border of Qin to rob, but that time, the leader never returned to the Xiongnu capital.
At that time, he had witnessed Great Qin's 100-or even a few dozen Cavalrymen crushing his 1,000-odd Xiongnu Cavalrymen.
He had also witnessed a thin man who was much stronger than him, the number one Xiongnu warrior.
And that man actually used his own life as the price to stab the number one warrior of the Xiongnu.
Then, he saw a devil-like smile. That devilish smile was deeply engraved in his mind.
Even though he was in the safest place in the entire grassland, he still could not feel the slightest sense of security.
After he had finally forgotten about that person, he heard that person's name from someone else's mouth again today.
"The enemies of the Qin country are attacking!"
Suddenly, a loud shout entered the Xiongnu man's ears.
Hearing this shout, the Xiongnu man was stunned.
Hurriedly pulling back a Xiongnu soldier who was running past him in a panic, the Xiongnu man shouted,""What exactly happened? What Qin Country's army is here?”
The Xiongnu soldier glanced at the Xiongnu man who was holding him back. He hurriedly bowed.
The Xiongnu soldier said," General, it seems that the Qin army has arrived outside the city. Judging from the flags, they should be the border guards of the Great Qin."”
Hearing the word 'border city', the Xiongnu man's expression changed. He muttered,""How could it be you!"
