Enter the red building

"What did you say, Qiu'er?" Mrs. Xue was stunned, her eyes were full of shock and bewilderment.

Seeing his mother's shock, Xue Qiu felt uncomfortable, but he still said seriously: "My son has been named the Great General of Zhennan, and he will lead the army to suppress the pirates in two days."

Mrs. Xue panicked, Qiu'er wants to lead soldiers to fight?

How is it possible, how is this possible?Mrs. Xue asked urgently: "Is it because of what happened yesterday? Qiu'er, tell your mother, is it because of her? You are going to fight, why?"

Mrs. Xue couldn't believe that her only son was about to go to the battlefield, and her heart suddenly hurt, "No! You can't go!"

Mrs. Xue's eyes were extremely sharp, and she looked directly at Xue Qiu.

Seeing his mother's anger, Xue Qiu said softly, "The imperial decree will come down in two days."

"What?" Mrs. Xue was dizzy for a while, her eyes darkened and she almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, Nanny Li held her up.

"Ma'am, are you okay?" Nanny Li asked quickly.

Xue Qiu was also terrified by his mother's reaction, so he hurried forward and helped his mother to sit on the chair.

"Mother, how are you, are you okay?" Xue Qiu asked eagerly.

Mrs. Xue opened her eyes, looked at Xue Qiu, and asked, "Tell me, is it because of her? Tell me!"

Xue Qiu looked at his mother who was furious, and didn't dare to provoke her any more, he just said: "Mother, my son said yesterday that he would let go."

Mrs. Xue asked sharply: "Then why did you leave the capital to lead troops to fight?"

Xue Qiu explained softly: "Mother, don't worry. My son will be fine. Besides, this isn't a war, it's just to suppress pirates."

Mrs. Xue looked at Xue Qiu, suddenly felt powerless, and said decadently, "Are you going to be fine?"

Xue Qiu nodded again and again, "My son promises that he will be fine. Maybe he will marry a Guangdong girl for you." At the end, Xue Qiu joked, trying to make Mrs. Xue feel more relaxed.

Mrs. Xue smiled perfunctorily, she knew that Xue Qiu was trying to let go of that relationship, and she knew that he was trying to let go of that relationship, but no matter how he let it go, if he insisted on leaving the capital, it was because he didn't know how to face her.

Seeing that his mother was not as excited at first, Xue Qiu smiled and said triumphantly: "Mother, do you know? Today my son competed with Lord Li, Shangshu of the Ministry of War. It was his son who won, and the emperor will make himself a town General Nan. General, isn’t your son amazing?”

Seeing Xue Qiu's face expecting her to praise him, Mrs. Xue smiled, "Maybe they let you on purpose because they think you are young!" Instead of complimenting him, Mrs. Xue hit Xue Qiu instead.

With a bitter face, Xue Qiu said wronged: "Could it be that in the mother's mind, the son is so useless and can only rely on others to let him?"

Before Mrs. Xue could speak, Nanny Li smiled and said, "How is it possible? My uncle is both civil and military."

"Nurse Li still knows." Xue Qiu said hastily.

Mrs. Xue looked at Xue Qiu's happy face and smiled. There was no use being angry at this time, she could only smile and send Qiu'er off to the battle.

When Xue Baoqin heard that her brother was going to lead troops to the expedition, she immediately ran to Xue Qiu's study, and said directly as soon as she entered the door: "Brother, I'm sorry!"

Seeing his younger sister Xue Baoqin rushing in, the first sentence was sorry, Xue Qiu felt very puzzled, and seeing her crying again, he hurried over and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you crying so well?"

Xue Baoqin felt that she was the one who caused her brother to leave the capital and lead the soldiers to fight. She lowered her head and cried, "Brother, I'm really sorry! My sister shouldn't have told my mother about you and sister Lin. It's just—it's just that you can't Together, my sister doesn't want you to go wrong. My sister didn't expect——I didn't expect you to think about leaving the capital."

Xue Qiu listened to Xue Baoqin's intermittent crying, Xue Qiu finally understood the meaning of sorry, Xue Qiu smiled, stroked Xue Baoqin's hair, and said: "Silly girl, why would my brother blame you? My brother just wants to do meritorious service, I want to be a general. It has nothing to do with you."

Xue Baoqin raised her head and asked with tears in her eyes: "Really? Brother really doesn't blame my sister? But my sister told her mother about this, so doesn't my brother blame me?"

Xue Qiu nodded with a smile, and said, "Brother doesn't blame you, because sooner or later, mother will know about it. So, don't cry."

Xue Baoqin asked with wet eyes, "Brother, you didn't lie to me? My sister really didn't do it on purpose, and my sister didn't want to do this either."

Xue Qiu put his hands on Xue Baoqin's shoulders, looked into Xue Baoqin's eyes, and said seriously: "Brother really doesn't blame you. Can you promise brother one thing?"

"What's the matter?" Xue Baoqin was still sobbing softly.

"Take good care of my mother for me!" Xue Qiu said seriously to Xue Baoqin, "Take care of yourself too."

Xue Baoqin nodded firmly, "Brother, don't worry, my sister will take good care of my mother. Brother, you must also promise that you will be fine."

"Brother assures you, brother will be fine."

It didn't take long for the rumors to spread in the capital that Xue Qiu, the new champion of Sanyuan Jidi, was about to be named the Great General of Zhennan, leading troops to conquer the pirates in the Guangdong Sea area.Teahouses, restaurants and other places are discussing this matter. It is too unbelievable that a 16-year-old Wen Zhuangyuan actually became a general and immediately leads troops to suppress the enemy.Some people also thought that seeing Xue Qiu's jokes, they might end up defeated and be questioned by the emperor.

In King Beijing, Qiu Shan told Shui Linglong that Xue Qiu was going to lead the army.

"What? He's going to lead troops to go out?" Shui Linglong put down the jade comb in her hand and asked uncertainly.

Qiu Shan nodded and said, "It's true! We're leaving tomorrow, and the prince knows about it. Yesterday, the prince was thinking about whether to tell you."

Shui Linglong looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and asked, "Qiu Shan, do you think I am good-looking, princess?"

Qiu Shan replied naturally: "Of course, the princess is born with beauty, and her beauty is unparalleled."

Shui Linglong sighed: "I really want to know what the person he likes looks like?"

Qiu Shan curled his lips indifferently, and said, "How can you compare to the princess?"

Shui Linglong smiled, even if she was beautiful, he wouldn't like herself!He is really going to lead the army.All thoughts turned into a sigh.

In the Xiaoxiang Pavilion of Jia Mansion, Jia Baoyu is happily telling Lin Daiyu that Xue Qiu is about to lead troops to the expedition.

"What you said is true?" Lin Daiyu asked.

Jia Baoyu nodded affirmatively, and said, "Of course it's true. My father also knew about it, and just now he used it to scold me. I really don't know how such a good brother Xue would be so keen on fame and fortune? "As he said, his face was full of puzzlement and regret.

Lin Daiyu was speechless for a long time, she looked out of the door, her eyes kept looking to the west, which was where Xue's house was located.
