Time Travel: The Foolish Lady is Forced to Become a Female General

Qin Huimu, the chief justice of the Great Xia State, and his son, Qin Zhengran.

Qin Huimu is the cousin of Grand Marshal Qin Huiqi. The Qin family has never had much contact with the Mu family, let alone any friendship. His arrival surprised Mu Lie and Mu Jinyu.

"General Mu, congratulations. This is just a false alarm." Qin Huimu started to be polite when he arrived at the Mu Mansion.

Although Mu Lie didn't like the Qin family, he still had to observe basic etiquette. Moreover, the Qin family was at its peak in Daxia, and he had already retired from the army, so there was no need to make enemies for no reason.

He said politely, "It's just a small family matter. Why bother Sir Qin to come here?"

Mu Jinyu on the side bowed respectfully to Qin Huimu, but Qin Zhengran ignored Mu Lie and Mu Jinyu and just looked around at the furnishings in the front hall of the Mu Mansion.

Qin Zhengran has been a well-known dandy in Beijing in recent years. He was handsome, but two years ago he flirted with a girl on the street and was slashed on the face by the girl, leaving a shocking scar from his forehead to his right cheek.

Afterwards, although the Qin family searched through various channels, they did not find any clues about the murderer.

After this incident, Qin Zhengran did not change at all. Instead, he became even more arrogant and unscrupulous, and often bullied men and women.

Since his uncle was one of the Three Dukes, his father was one of the Nine Ministers, and his cousin was the emperor's favorite concubine, almost no one in the entire court dared to mention this matter, let alone the Jingzhao Yin.

Of course, there's no point in mentioning it.

In the front hall, Mu Lie and Qin Huimu sat side by side, with Mu Jinyu and Qin Zhengran standing on both sides.

Qin Huimu looked at Mu Lie, and after a few pleasantries, he suddenly asked in a low voice, "I heard that your daughter and the young master of the Dongfang family have cancelled their engagement?"

Mu Lie didn't know what he meant, so he still replied politely: "Yes, it is true."

Qin Huimu looked at Qin Zhengran's carefree appearance, and there was some annoyance in his eyes. He whispered: "Zhengran, wait for me outside the door. I want to discuss something important with your uncle Mu and brother Jinyu."

Qin Zhengran responded absentmindedly and walked out of the front hall shaking his head.

Mu Lie had a bad feeling in his heart and frowned slightly: "I wonder what the important matter is, Lord Qin?"

Qin Huimu said somewhat embarrassedly: "Brother Mu, what do you think of my son?"

Mu Lie instantly understood what Qin Huimu meant. What about his son? His son was a waste, a bastard. Not to mention that Yan'er was very likely to recover slowly, even if she remained stupid, she would never marry such a dandy boy!

Although he thought so in his heart, Mu Lie couldn't say it so bluntly.

"Brother Qin, you know my daughter's situation, and you also know that this child is the apple of my late wife's eye..."

Several people were discussing in the front hall, while Qin Zhengran was wandering around in the front yard outside. He happened to see through the archway two women chatting and laughing in the pavilion in the backyard.

Seeing this, he ignored etiquette and went straight into the backyard and walked towards the pavilion on the lotus pond.

Now no one dared to monitor Xia Qin. In the pavilion, she and Xiaoyu were discussing grappling techniques in a low voice. When they were talking about the interesting part, they saw a strange man approaching.

Although she had traveled through time, Xia Qin still knew a thing or two about the ancient etiquette. How could a strange man casually enter the backyard of the general's mansion? Moreover, the man's expression was very frivolous, and he was looking her up and down.

Qin Zhengran looked at their clothes and asked Xiaoyu, "Hey, is this the silly young lady from your Mu family?"

Xiaoyu looked at the man with a disgusting scar on his face and replied unhappily: "You are the fool, my sister is the eldest daughter of the Mu family, Mu Jinyan."

"Humph, the young lady is a fool, and the maid doesn't seem to be smart either. Listen carefully, my name is Qin Zhengran, the court judge Qin Huimu is my father, and the Grand Marshal Qin Huiqi is my uncle. I'm here today to propose marriage. In the future, when your young lady marries into the Qin family, you will have to follow her to the Qin mansion and be my conservatory maid."

Xia Qin listened to what he said and believed that her father and brother would not marry her to such a guy, so she ignored him.

She turned her head and continued to look at the lotus pond. There was a small toad struggling to climb onto a lotus leaf, staring at a small bee that was flying up and down.

Qin Zhengran still looked at Xia Qin without knowing what was going on, and commented brazenly: "She's a little worse than the prostitutes in the alley, but she's pretty innocent, too. Marrying her and playing with her occasionally is a change of taste."

Xia Qin glanced at him, raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and smiled disdainfully.

The little fish at the side couldn't stand it anymore. She pointed at the pond and said, "Look at your ugly face. Do you see that toad over there? It's much better than you. It's ugly and its mouth is dirty. What did your parents teach you?"

Qin Zhengran didn't expect that a little girl would dare to teach him a lesson. Even her parents wouldn't do this under normal circumstances. What he couldn't stand the most was that she dared to comment on his appearance.

He was so angry that his face turned red. He pointed at Xiaoyu and cursed, "You bastard, who are you to dare to yell at me, a servant who doesn't know etiquette! I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your master!"

As he said that, he quickly stepped forward, raised his hand and slapped Xiaoyu in the face. Just as the slap was about to fall, Xia Qin grabbed his wrist and whispered, "Idiot, get out!"

She twisted it hard, and Qin Zhengran screamed in pain. However, Xia Qin did not want to bring trouble to the family, so she just shook it lightly, and Qin Zhengran fell to the side.

But he didn't seem to see the reality clearly, and he still said dirty words: "You bitch, you're looking for death! No one has ever beaten me since I was a child!"

When Xiaoyu heard this, he immediately became happy and asked curiously, "No one has ever hit you? Then where did the knife wound on your face come from? Was it from the birth order?"

Qin Zhengran's face turned pale and blue, and the fire in his eyes seemed to be bursting out. He stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and pulled out a dagger from his waist.

Xia Qin looked at Qin Zhengran with contempt, her eyes slightly narrowed, a faint disdainful smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, as if she was the fool who was being laughed at between the two.

Seeing Xia Qin's insulting expression, Qin Zhengran couldn't bear it anymore and rushed straight towards Xia Qin.

Will every time-traveling heroine always encounter this kind of blind idiot? ? First it was Wei Wu, and now this Qin Zhengran?

There was a gleam of sharpness in Xia Qin's eyes. Just as Qin Zhengran was about to approach, she suddenly stood up and kicked out with her right foot, hitting him hard in the face.

"Clang."

Qin Zhengran felt pain, covered his face with his hands, and the dagger fell to the ground.

But Xia Qin did not stop. She turned over and kicked sideways with her left foot. Before Qin Zhengran could react, he flew straight out and fell headfirst into the lotus pond. A group of frogs and toads were frightened and fled in all directions.

Not as promising as Wei Wu.

Xia Qin retracted her legs, gently patted her flowing skirt, and sat down quietly again. She knew that someone would come over soon.

“Help, ah, help, help,” Qin Zhengran shouted, “I, I can’t, I can’t swim…gulp,gulp…”

The little fish looked at him with disdain and said, "Tsk, you're still a landlubber. You can float up just by drinking some water."

Mu Lie, Qin Huimu and Mu Jinyu, who were discussing matters in the front hall, ran over upon hearing the noise. Several servants and maids from the Mu Mansion also rushed over and took a bamboo pole from the garden and handed it to Qin Zhengran.

Mu Jinyu looked at Qin Zhengran who was still struggling in the water, and reminded him quietly: "Mr. Qin, the water is not deep, it only reaches your chest, just stand up straight."

Qin Zhengran struggled to grab the bamboo pole handed to him by the servant, tried to adjust it several times, and finally stood up straight and climbed up along the bamboo pole.

After coming up, his face was ashen, the anger in his eyes was even stronger, and he walked straight towards Xia Qin.

Seeing this, Mu Jinyu took two quick steps and stood in front of Xia Qin, asking in confusion, "Why is Young Master Qin in the backyard?"

Qin Zhengran did not answer, but roared loudly: "That bitch just pushed me into the river!"

Seeing Qin Zhengran's rude words, Mu Jinyu glanced at the dagger on the ground. He knew it was definitely not Xia Qin's. He suppressed his anger and asked, "Mr. Qin, why did you appear in the backyard? Is this dagger yours?"

Qin Zhengran was so furious that he bent over to pick up the dagger and prepared to attack Mu Jinyu.

With the same disdainful look, Mu Jinyu sneered and asked, "Mr. Qin, are you planning to practice with me?"
