Later, the emperor ordered to retreat, and made the decision the moment he received the money, completely forgetting how the Yun Kingdom had humiliated them in the first place.

He also punished Xiao Qiyang for sneaking out of the palace and made him face the wall in the palace to think about his mistakes. He also asked Xiao Yanyu to supervise his homework and not be able to leave the palace for a moment.

It’s also really miserable.

Qin Yao sighed, having no choice but to pack his things and return to Beijing.

In the end, Qin Shi Jin left some capable generals to garrison Lanchi City to prevent the Yun Kingdom from invading.

On the carriage, the body of the carriage was shaking.

Qin Shijin rubbed his eyebrows. His eyes were slightly tired, but he did not leave the scroll for a moment.I have been recording and thinking about countermeasures in my hand.

In such an atmosphere, Qin Yao's tea-making hands couldn't help but become quiet.Suddenly his hand froze and the teacup fell to the ground, soaking his lower robe.

Shocked, Qin Shijin immediately put down her pen, hurriedly took out the handkerchief embroidered with plum blossoms, and wiped Qin Yao's hands.He knelt down and carefully wiped his wet lower robe.

"Brother, I didn't pay attention. I'll make tea from now on." Qin Shijin said softly.

"..." Qin Yao was silent for a long time.

Qin Yao spoke again: "Shi Jin, am I really useless?"

Qin Shijin's movements froze, and he quickly shook his head when he heard this: "No, brother is still our great hero."

Qin Yao's face was expressionless. He tried to move his fingers, but failed to close them several times. The next second, Qin Shijin grabbed him and held them.

"Brother's hands should be pretty. It's been three years now, let's have a good rest..."

"Shi Jin, I will rest for a year and then go to the border." Qin Yao suddenly said.

Qin Shijin's smile faded: "..."

Qin Yao said firmly: "Three years cannot all be used for recuperation. We need to reorganize our troops and reduce internal and external troubles. You are responsible for dealing with some corrupt people in Beijing, and I will guard it..."

"Brother." Qin Shijin suddenly said in a deep voice: "There are only three years left. Are you really not going to accompany me in three years?"

Qin Yao hesitated to speak. Looking at Qin Shijin's eyes, he suddenly couldn't say no.He turned his head away and said quietly: "You know, I don't want to become a useless person and be raised in the house."

"In my limited years, I will try my best to help you with some trivial matters. This is my last value."

Qin Shijin just stared at Qin Yao quietly with no emotion in her eyes.The cold pool-like eyes are as dark and hollow as an abyss.

"Okay, I promise, brother."

...

For a period of time after returning to the mansion, Qin Yao has been taking care of himself.Then he went to the martial arts field to train the Qin family's army, hoping that they would not lose to Yun Guo on the battlefield.

Seven months passed in the blink of an eye.

Today is a very important day, the day when Qin Shijin comes of age.

It was very complicated anyway. All the officers and soldiers came to greet me early in the morning, and then there were a lot of formal etiquette to be done.

Qin Shijin ate some food in the morning, and then listened expressionlessly to the eunuch chanting the official language until noon passed, and then into the evening.

Qin Shijin was finally liberated. He was wearing a heavy dress and a high crown on his head. Every step he took was heavy.

It was originally a major birthday, but these rituals made me lose my mood.

During this period, Qin Shijin couldn't bear to let Qin Yao suffer with him, so she let him stay in the house.

Qin Yao did not stay in the house honestly. He secretly went to the military camp to organize a birthday party.He also went to the kitchen to make an exquisite snack. This large snack was covered with cream, but it was oddly shaped and not very pretty.

"..." Qin Yao looked at the "cake" in his hand with disappointment.

This cake appeared in his mind inexplicably. He made it according to his memory. Who knew that his hands would be so raw that it would not look good at all.

He also seems to have no appetite.

The soldier on the side had prepared a lot of wine. Seeing Master Qin busy at work, he couldn't help but take a look, and blurted out: "Sir! What are you going to do to the Marquis? This doesn't look like food."

Indeed, the bottom layer of this "cake" was burnt, and only the cream on top could be seen, but it was crowded and messy.The words written in jam on it are not legible.

"Qin Shi Jin, happy birthday"

Qin Yao was ashamed. His face was covered with cream and his hands were also covered.He didn't notice it and rubbed it directly on his face, which made his face even more discolored.

The soldier next to him really didn't dare to laugh out loud, he was holding back the pain.

Qin Yao looked at the sky and saw that Qin Shijin was coming. He was so sad that he wanted to throw away this "cake".

The soldier next to him suddenly saluted: "Hello, Mr. Marquis!"

Qin Yao paused, subconsciously hid the "cake", and turned to look at Qin Shijin.

Qin Shijin's dress is very beautiful, black and gold, noble and gorgeous, and it makes his facial features more exquisite.

It also highlights his invisible aura, which is very oppressive.

It was just this impressive aura that made Qin Shijin lose her power because of her smile the moment she saw Qin Yao.

Qin Shijin stepped forward, carefully wiped the cream off Qin Yao's face, and put it into his mouth under his gaze.

Qin Yao's face turned red instantly, partly because of the cream on his face, and also because of Qin Shijin's behavior.

The soldiers next to him were stunned and subconsciously moved away from him.

Qin Shijin laughed deeply: "Sweet."

"What did brother do?"

Qin Yao hesitated, and finally, under Qin Shijin's scorching gaze, he took out the "cake" behind him, "Well... if you ruin it, you might get a stomach upset..."

Without waiting for Qin Yao to say anything else, Qin Shijin took the cake directly and walked to the birthday banquet prepared in the military camp, next to the bonfire.

Qin Yao was so embarrassed that he could only follow.

Under the cheers of the soldiers, the lively atmosphere gradually unfolded. Everyone looked at each other and said something to each other, and the atmosphere was relaxed and high-spirited.

With a smile on her lips, Qin Shijin quickly ate the cakes one bite at a time.

Qin Yao quickly handed him the water: "Hurry up, it must be terrible to eat."

"No, it's really sweet and delicious." Qin Shijin said sincerely.

For the next period of time, everyone drank happily.

Qin Shijin also drank a pot of wine under the background.The worries of the morning disappeared in an instant.

Qin Yao couldn't drink, so he could only watch the vivid scene in front of him quietly and drink the greasy tea in his hand.

Everyone got very drunk and there were various performances.

Qin Shijin was also drunk.All the soldiers asked the Marquis to do something.

Qin Shijin ignored them, her cheeks turned red, and she stared at Qin Yao's face with hazy eyes, not leaving them for a moment.

He suddenly wanted to kiss him in front of the crowd.

Qin Yao had been watching the performance, laughing heartily from time to time, and did not notice Qin Shijin's figure getting closer and closer.

When he found out, he turned his head and saw that Qin Shijin was very close, so close that their lips were almost touching.

Qin Yao's pupils shook. He saw too many people and wanted to retreat immediately.

Qin Shijin held his hand tightly, not letting him go. Her face got closer and closer, her hot eyes firmly locked on Qin Yao's panicked figure.

There is a way to kiss you in front of people and let everyone know the status of your relationship.

When Qin Yao was about to touch his lips, he immediately turned his head away and stood up quickly: "I'm not feeling well. I'm going to leave first. You can drink slowly. You can get up late tomorrow to train for a while."

The soldiers cheered, no need to get up early for devil training.

Then Qin Yao left as if he had fled.

"..." Qin Shijin felt the loss of warmth in her palms and looked up again at Qin Yao who was walking away.

At this moment, his eyes were clear again, and he was not even half drunk.

Brother, don't want to admit it, don't want to face it together.

The atmosphere among the surrounding soldiers rose again.Qin Shijin came to his senses, the air pressure was low that night.

In the following days, both of them forgot about that incident.

Nothing was mentioned tacitly.
