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

"Boss, what are you thinking about? Are you thinking about the things that remind you of someone? Miss Mu has been gone for many days. Oh, and Military Supervisor Qin is also going back to the capital. Aren't you going to see her off?"

"No need, please ask General Shi to come over, we should go to war!"

"Going to war?"

"We have been resting for a long time. We must seize this opportunity while the Huns' morale is low and the reinforcements from Yuelan and Goryeo have just withdrawn!" Dongfang Yi raised his eyes and looked into the distance, his eyes showing a murderous determination different from before.

"Yes! Boss!"

It was an unusually cold winter in the capital, and the war had calmed down. In order to show mercy and generosity, Emperor Gao Huanyang specially allowed Mu Lie to rest and recuperate for a month before going out to fight again.

In the Mu Mansion, the second lady was inexplicably polite to Xia Qin.

I don’t know if it was because he was afraid of Xia Qin or because Mu Jinqi had explained it in the letter.

Although Mu Jinqi had entered the palace, Mu Lie still had Mu Jinyu, Xia Qin and Mu Jinxin to accompany him at home, so he was able to enjoy a month of family happiness.

Time flies and a month has passed quickly.

However, Xia Qin's mood became increasingly depressed.

It was not because they were about to set off for Jinghai City, but because the long-awaited Mo Ye never showed up.

Seeing that it was already March, even if Mo Ye did not ride day and night on horseback, but instead rushed from the south at a normal speed, he should have returned long ago.

"Bastard! Scumbag! Untrustworthy!" She cursed softly.

"Sister, what's wrong?" Xiaoyu heard her mumbling and asked curiously.

Since Mu Lie and others returned home, the kitchen of the Mu Mansion has been cooking various delicious meals in different ways every day. After a month of eating and drinking, Xiaoyu has gained weight.

Her cheeks were round and plump, and she smiled every day, which made her very cute. Huo Jinying and others always joked that if she continued to eat like this, no one would want her!

"It's okay, it's just a little boring." Xia Qin's eyes revealed a trace of anxiety, but in an instant, she seemed to remember something important and asked hurriedly, "Xiao Yu, has your master been injured?"

Xiaoyu answered without hesitation: "Although Master is a martial arts expert, he is not a god. He must have been injured. I have seen him injured at least three times in these years, but the most recent one was three years ago."

The annoyance and unhappiness that originally filled her heart were instantly replaced by worry, and Xia Qin suddenly felt panic-stricken.

Could it be that the scumbag was in danger? This thought came to her mind, making her even more uneasy.

Was he trapped by that evil woman who drugged him? That woman was obviously not a good person, but Mo Ye still had to go!

Was he retaliated by Wanjian Villa? After all, Mo Ye killed their leader, and this was for his own sake.

Xiaoyu watched Xia Qin frowning and thinking, so she grabbed a snack and stuffed it into Xia Qin's mouth, comforting her, "Sister, don't worry, Master will be fine. Three years ago, Master's martial arts skills were not as good as they are now, and the injuries he suffered back then were only minor. Besides, Master has a group of martial arts friends around him who are very skilled."

Xia Qin's mouth was stuffed full.

That’s right. The last time he went to Yuelan Country to rescue me, he was like a deserted person. I shouldn’t have worried about this untrustworthy scumbag whose skills were countless times better than mine!

Humph, this snack is good!

In the inner court of the palace, Mu Jinqi was still infatuated and immersed in the illusory yet sweet happiness.

Although the current emperor rarely visits her palace, he has devoted more time and energy to Concubine Wang and other concubines.

But Mu Jinqi didn't seem to mind it too much.

Not only that, she felt that since the emperor rarely set foot here, many concubines and sisters had been coming here frequently, and their attitude towards her had become more friendly and cordial.

This change was a comforting thing for her.

At this moment, Mu Jinqi had a simple thought in her heart: as soon as the baby in her belly was born, she would take care of his growth wholeheartedly.

My father and brother are so strong, my sister has recovered, and my mother should not act like a troublemaker anymore. Every aspect of my life is going well.

She daydreamed in this innocent and pure way.

The Qin family has been very peaceful since Qin Ruoran returned from Mobei.

Their followers occupied most of the key positions in Daxia. Despite the incident with Mu Lie, the emperor still relied on and trusted them very much.

After all, it is no exaggeration to say that Emperor Gao Huanyang was able to sit on the throne entirely thanks to the Qin family.

But they have some minor troubles now.

First, there are rumors that the emperor is about to appoint a crown prince, and the eldest son born to the empress, Prince Cheng Gao Yin, has the highest voice. The matter of appointing a crown prince is the emperor's sore spot, and he is unwilling to discuss it with anyone. Now they dare not conflict with the emperor.

The second is the death of Qin Zhengran. Both Qin Ruoran and Dongfang Yi firmly said that the murderer was Yue Languo.

Although Qin Zhengran is a waste, he is Qin Huimu's eldest son after all. How can he let go of the hatred of his son's murder?

However, at this critical juncture, it is impossible for them to break off relations with Yuelan Kingdom, so they can only force Yuelan Kingdom to hand over the murderer. However, Yuelan Kingdom is completely unaware of this matter, so how can they hand it over?

Third, Mu Lie was named Duke of Weiguo and was about to go to quell the Japanese rebellion.

Over the years, they have secretly done many things to harm the ministers of the previous dynasty, including dealing with Mu Lie. Now that Mu Lie is once again valued by the emperor, some ministers are also ready to get closer to Mu Lie.

As a result, Mu Lie became a thorn in the Qin family's side and a trouble that had to be resolved as soon as possible.

In order to deal with Mu Lie, the Qin family has been making plans for the past month. They have made sufficient preparations in every aspect and every link.

Just wait for Mu Lie to fall into the trap.

They had thought carefully and left no stone unturned, but they had overlooked one important factor.

Mu Lie and his party finally set off.

"Lanxi, it's time for us to set off. The affairs of the mansion are now handed over to you. Once Jinghai County is stable, we will send someone to pick you up."

The Second Madam nodded: "Master, Yu'er, Yan'er, you must be careful on the road! Pay attention to safety!"

Mu Jinyu and Xia Qin also nodded in response and set off on their journey south.

After getting on the carriage, Mu Lie and Mu Jinyu's expressions did not look relaxed at all.

"Yu'er, what's the situation in Jinghai County now?"

"I don't know if it's because of the cold weather or some other reason, but the Japanese pirates didn't attack the last Zishi County and Zhishui County in Jinghai County, but chose to harass the inland Dongwu County and Guangling County, looting people and supplies."

"It's cold? I'm afraid it's not that simple."

"I think so too, but this time we can only mobilize 3,000 soldiers and horses. Facing so many Japanese pirates, it is indeed a bit difficult."

"You can discuss this with Yan'er later. This time, you will be in charge of the battle against the Japanese."

Mu Jinyu understood his father's expectations and immediately responded, "Yes, father."

Xia Qin looked at the scenery along the way, but kept wondering where Mo Ye had gone.

If Mo Ye rushed back to the capital and didn't find me, and then rushed to Jinghai County, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to meet until April.

Oh, I thought about it.

Under this imperial power, one cannot help but stay away from the court. However, as long as the family is safe, life is not always satisfactory.

"Whoa!" The carriage stopped again.

"Miss, there are robbers ahead again!" Huo Jinying reminded Xia Qin in a low voice.

This was already the third wave of robbers along the way, and dozens of the 500 elite soldiers brought from the capital had been killed or injured.

I don’t know if the world is really so chaotic, or if someone arranged it on purpose.

Even Xiaoyu has become accustomed to these inexplicable ambushes. Fortunately, these robbers are not martial arts masters and there are not many of them, so there is not much danger.

More than twenty days later, the group was about to reach Zishi County. However, when they were still twenty miles away from Zishi County and thought that nothing would happen, two people appeared and stopped their convoy.
