Husband and wife return to the field

"Shaoxi, don't think about it anymore..." Qiu Jinming looked into Qiu Shaoxi's eyes, as if he was judging whether what Qiu Shaoxi said was true

However, Qiu Shaoxi looked directly at Qiu Jinming without the slightest hesitation: "Although the Manyi people are nomads, their horsemanship and martial arts are very powerful, and it is very dangerous to go there, but I learned boxing from Uncle Wu when I was young. Although it is said to be fishing for three days and drying the net for two days, compared to big brother, I am stronger in terms of force, so this expedition is obviously more suitable for me than big brother..."

Qiu Jinming looked at Qiu Shaoxi's earnest and determined appearance. Once upon a time, Shaoxi was no longer standing beside Liu Yingxue and timidly looking at her Shaoxi. Maybe it was really an accident that happened last year that changed him... Shao Chao and Shao Xi he I really don't want to put any of them on the battlefield. Although it is said that the Qiu family practiced martial arts, it was a matter of several generations ago. However, the emperor had to obey. As for Qiu Shaohan, Qiu Jinming frowned.

Seeing Qiu Jinming's silence for a long time, Qiu Shaoxi wondered if he had promised too quickly, which made Qiu Jinming see something... Qiu Shaoxi knelt down, clasped his fists and said, "Father, I am willing to fight for elder brother. Father please allow..."

Qiu Jinming was stunned for a moment, then sighed: "Get up quickly... You and Shao Chao, I really don't want to send either of them out... Sigh..." Qiu Jinming rubbed his sore forehead, Shao Chao, Shao Xi, the two They were all meat, and thinking of Liu Yingxue's colder appearance these days, Qiu Jinming felt even more uncomfortable...

After lunch, Qiu Jinming sat on the main seat and glanced at the people on the table. Qiu Shaohan was recuperating in the courtyard because of an injury, and Ru Que was also taking care of Qiu Shaohan in Qiu Shaohan's courtyard. Qiu Jinming also had a sad face, and said slowly: " A few days ago, you all knew that the emperor was going to send someone to the border to warn the people of Man Yi, so that the Qiu family sent out one person to lead the army. This person..." Qiu Jinming paused, and the sad look on his face became even worse: "This matter, just Let Shaoxi go, Shaoxi, come to me after your lunch break..."

After finishing speaking, Qiu Jinming didn't dare to look at the faces of Liu Yingxue and the others, and left in a hurry with his head down.

Liu Yingxue's face was a little pale, Chun'er walked in and called softly: "Madam..."

Liu Yingxue came back to her senses and grabbed Qiu Shaoxi's hand next to her: "Shaoxi, you..."

"Mother, don't worry, I will definitely come back..." Qiu Shaoxi showed a smile on his face. Being able to take the place of his eldest brother in this life can be said to have untied a knot in his heart. However, Qiu Shaoxi's smile seemed to Liu Yingxue But to reassure herself, Liu Yingxue forced out tears in her eyes, looking at Qiu Shaoxi as if she would never see each other again in this life

"Mother, go and rest first..." Qiu Shaoxi brushed Liu Yingxue's tears away with his hand, and said softly...

Liu Yingxue nodded, stood up slowly with Chun'er's support, and staggered towards the door... Qiu Shaoxi glanced at Qiu Shaochao who hadn't spoken since the beginning, knowing that Qiu Shaochao must have something to say. Say to yourself, stand up and say: "Brother, come to my courtyard and chat for a while..."

Qiu Shaochao nodded...

In the early spring, the plum blossoms in the yard have withered, only a few buds are exposed on the branches... But the flowers on the ground have grown much taller, with small buds, waiting for the opportunity to bloom

"Master, third son, please use tea..." Ruolan poured the tea for the two of them, and exited the house

"This time you did it voluntarily, or your father forced you..." Qiu Shaochao lowered his head, his hands on the table were already clenched into fists, because he kept suppressing his anger, the expression on his face looked a bit ferocious...

Qiu Shaoxi picked up the teacup unhurriedly: "I voluntarily..."

"Nonsense!" Qiu Shaochao slammed the table, his anger burst out of his chest, and he stood up and glared at Qiu Shaoxi: "Do you know how dangerous the border is! Do you know how powerful the man's force is! You!" Qiu Shaochao looked at Qiu Shaoxi didn't seem to respond at all, as if he had punched the cotton with his fist, he sat back on the chair slumped...

"I know that the forces of the Dali Dynasty are now concentrated on other borders. The existing troops in the capital are not many and their level needs to be improved. I know that this time there will be bad luck, and the possibility of danger is very high..." Qiu Shaoxi took a sip of tea and said...

"You know you're still here!" Qiu Shaochao turned his head, just in time to meet Qiu Shaoxi's firm eyes: "Because if you go, it will only be more dangerous than me..."

Qiu Shaochao's next words were stuck in his throat, and he had to admit that what Qiu Shaoxi said was not wrong at all. Compared with Qiu Shaoxi who had learned boxing skills, he devoted himself to studying in the sea of ​​books, and he was definitely not as good as Qiu Shaoxi when he went out to fight... Qiu Shaochao suddenly felt a sense of frustration that he was a scholar who was useless. He lowered his head, looking disappointed...

Seeing such an expression of the always proud elder brother, Qiu Shaoxi couldn't bear it, but he would not make any changes in this matter... Qiu Shaoxi patted Qiu Shaochao on the back: "Brother, don't worry, this time Didn't Brother Wu go too... Besides, my father has always trained you as the next head of the family, and now the Dali Dynasty favors literature over martial arts, so it is understandable that you lack martial arts..."

Qiu Shaochao's expression froze, and he turned his head stiffly to look at Qiu Shaoxi: "Shaoxi..."

Qiu Shaoxi thought for a while and knew that Qiu Shaochao was worrying too much. He held Qiu Shaochao's hand and said softly, "Brother, don't worry, I have no intention of being the head of the house. I am still happy and leisurely when you are the head of the house..."

"Shaoxi...thank you..." Qiu Shaochao was a little moved in his heart. Because of the competition for the position of Patriarch in the family, brothers fought against each other and turned against each other. What kind of estrangement has there been between me and myself, especially now that Qiu Shaohan and Ru Que are still living at home...

Although Qiu Shaohan didn't have any scheming, that woman Ru Que had a lot of eyes. A few days ago, the person he sent to check the time of Qiu Shaoxi's kidnapping a year ago sent back the news that there was a connection between that incident and Ru Que. but a lot...

The two brothers chatted for a while, and Qiu Shaochao left. Although he was a little helpless about Qiu Shaoxi's expedition, he did not object to Qiu Shaoxi. After resting for a while, he got up to find Qiu Jinming

"Shaoxi, sit down..." Qiu Jinming sat in front of the desk, looking at Qiu Shaoxi who had already opened his face, he was deeply moved. Looking at Qiu Shaoxi's eyebrows and eyes that resembled Liu Yingxue, Qiu Jinming felt a pain in his heart...
