After swallowing my anger and taking the blame, I became the lucky little queen

Chapter 500

General Xiao: "At this critical moment, I know I shouldn't just think about myself, but my two sons are in Yanmen Pass. Apart from Jian Ting sending back an urgent report a dozen days ago, there has been no news. Recently, I heard rumors that Yanmen Pass was breached, and the General of the Cavalry and several generals are missing. I am worried..."

His eyes were red and a tear fell.

After all, he is his own son. Although they knew this outcome was inevitable when they left home, he was still devastated when he really faced this reality.

If it weren't for the overall situation yesterday, he would have ridden out of the city to look for Xiao Jianting and Xiao Helin.

Now that the emperor has given him such an important task, he is even more busy and cannot get away, so he can only get information from the emperor.

The emperor felt guilty towards the Xiao family and without giving it much thought, he took out a stack of letters from the drawer and handed them forward. General Xiao hurried forward to take them.

"This is from Jian Ting, almost one letter every three days. I was afraid that those ministers would have improper thoughts, so I didn't make it public. Besides Yu'er, you are the third person to see these letters."

General Xiao's hands were shaking as he unfolded the letters one by one. Tears couldn't help but fall down, wetting the letter paper.

Most of Xiao Jianting's letters reported the battle situation to the emperor. They were short and simple, but contained bad news. 3000 people were killed in battle... 4500 people were killed in battle... The morale of the Northern Wei Dynasty soared, and three general attacks were launched within five days...

General Xiao couldn't bear to read on for several times. The last letter was Xiao Jianting's letter of apology. He couldn't hold on any longer. With the determination to die, he led the remaining 5000 people to fight the enemy desperately.

Since then, there has been no news.

General Xiao staggered and almost fell.

The emperor comforted him, "General Xiao, don't worry too much. I believe that with Jian Ting's ability, he will be able to escape death."

General Xiao closed his eyes, clenched a thick stack of letter paper, and said in a deep voice: "I hope so..."

East Palace.

Qin Junyu was caught by Nian Susu while packing his luggage.

"What's the plan?" Nian Susu helped him fold his clothes, thinking about what he should take and whether he had forgotten anything.

Qin Junyu rarely had a chance to rest, so he simply lay down half leaning against the pillow, resting his hands on the back of his head, staring at her intently.

He told her about the conversation they had just had in the Yangxin Palace and instructed her on how to deal with any emergencies that might arise after he left.

However, Nian Susu did not take it to heart.

She tied up his clothes, walked to the closet, opened it, took out another packed bundle, and put it together with Qin Junyu's.

He sat up immediately, "What is this?"

"My stuff." Nian Susu shrugged. "I want to go with you. My horse riding skills are now perfect. I will definitely not fall behind."

Qin Junyu took her bag and hid it behind him, frowning and saying, "No, I don't agree. On the battlefield, swords and guns are blind. I'm afraid I can't take care of you. What if you get hurt? What if I lose?"

"I can be injured and die in battle, but you can't."

Nian Susu was so angry that her heart ached. She thought Qin Junyu looked down on her. She put her hands on her hips and asked stubbornly, "Why not? Are you afraid that I will hold you back? Or do you despise me because I don't know martial arts and think I'm a burden?"

Qin Junyu didn't expect her to think this way. He was so scared that he quickly held her hand. Nian Susu shook it off and turned away with a sour face.

"That's not what I meant. I'm just worried about you."

"If you get hurt because of me, I'll blame myself."

Nian Susu said with disdain, "What do you mean I got hurt because of you?"

She glared at him, "I'm not going to the front with you because I can't leave you."

"Although I don't know martial arts, I know medicine. Don't you need a military doctor in your barracks? There are heavy casualties in wars. Saving every life is a contribution to the people."

"I was wrong. I was narrow-minded." Qin Junyu took her hand again. "You can go to the military camp to practice medicine, but you have to promise me that you won't run around. Otherwise, I will have someone send you back to Shengjing. No discussion."

Nian Susu nodded, "Got it, I won't put myself in danger. Didn't I tell you that I value my life very much?"

The two of them smiled knowingly.

As they were talking, Jingzhe suddenly ran in. He was shocked to see Qin Junyu was there too, holding hands with Nian Susu.

"Miss..."

Qin Junyu was unhappy, "Why didn't you knock before coming in?"

His tone was filled with anger: "Also, who is the eldest lady? This is the Eastern Palace, there is only the Crown Princess, not the eldest lady."

Jing Chong didn't like him either and rolled his eyes.

Nian Susu had a premonition that the two were going to quarrel again.

"My mouth is on my body, so I can call you whatever I want. You are not my master, so why should I listen to you?" Jingzhe was rebellious.

Qin Junyu: "This is my territory, if you don't obey my rules, you can leave."

Jingzhe ran behind Nian Susu and said, "Wherever the young lady is, I will be there." He deliberately made a face to anger Qin Junyu.

Nian Su Su is caught in the middle, in a dilemma.

Qin Junyu: ...

He didn't want to embarrass Nian Susu, so he could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger, then left.

Jingzhe was proud and felt that he had won another round.

A thought crossed Nian Susu's mind, and he smiled maliciously: "If Xuanji said this to you, how would you answer?"

Jingzhe thought about it seriously, "If it is the wise and powerful owner of the manor, then I will definitely obey him." His eyes lit up just thinking about Xuanji's image, which was completely different from when he faced Qin Junyu just now.

Nian Susu burst out laughing. She found it funny just thinking about Jingzhe's expression when he knew that Qin Junyu was Xuanji.

"Oh, I almost forgot something important." Jingzhe suddenly remembered, "Nian Qiaoyue is at the door. She wants to see you. Will you come to see her? If not, I will chase her away."

Nian Susu frowned and realized that she had forgotten about Nian Qiaoyue.

Qin Zehai definitely couldn't have taken Nian Qiaoyue with him when he left Beijing. I don't know how she escaped. Seven or eight days had passed since the last meeting. Nian Qiaoyue was afraid of death, so she came to his house.

However, the poisonous insect prop in Nian Qiaoyue's body has become ineffective, and telling her that she needs to take medicine to be fed is a lie. Even if she doesn't take the medicine or get treatment, she will not die.

Nian Susu sighed, "Forget it, bring her to Hefengyuan to see me."

This matter has to come to an end.

Hefengyuan.

As soon as Nian Qiaoyue saw Nian Susu coming, she was about to step forward, but Jingzhe immediately stood in front of Nian Susu and said, "If you dare to mess around, you'll have your hands and feet cut off."

Nian Qiaoyue was frightened and took a few steps back.

Nian Susu gently pushed Jingzhe away and said, "You stay on the outer corridor, I want to talk to her."

Jingzhe refused, and Nian Qiaoyue's eyes looked like she wanted to eat her up. How could anyone feel at ease?
