The stunning beauty of Qing Dynasty

Chapter 244 The Female General

At the An Mansion, Qingyin also discovered that his wife had become busy recently. For example, his wife, who usually wanted to be by his side all the time, disappeared from the An Mansion early in the morning and only came back late at night.

Qingyin walked around the yard several times but didn't see her. However, seeing the excitement and happiness on her face at night, Qingyin felt relieved and didn't ask about the matter any further.

An Jinghe and Ah Yue, who had been out for several days, could not help but gather together. An Jinghe said to Ah Yue with self-doubt, "Ah Yue, why didn't Ah Miao ask me anything when I was out for so many days? Those people say that if a person doesn't care about his or her partner, he or she doesn't care about her. What do you think of my husband?"

Although Ah Yue had this thought in her mind, she still explained without hesitation when she saw the slightly sad young lady: "Young lady, maybe the uncle loves you too much, so he didn't ask you. If the uncle didn't like you, how could he marry you?"

"But Miss, are you hiding your training at night from your son-in-law without telling him?"

Hearing this, An Jinghe hesitated for a long time. Looking at Ah Yue who was concerned about her, she finally spoke out the truth in her heart: "Before, when those people said that I was practicing martial arts, they looked down on me. I was worried, worried that Ah Miao would also hate me because of this."

"But doesn't my son-in-law know that you have practiced martial arts?" A Yue asked puzzledly.

"But Ah Miao doesn't know that I've started practicing martial arts again, and even training soldiers? These..."

An Jinghe's tone was not yet finished, but A Yue also understood what his master meant. After all, some men could not accept practicing martial arts, let alone training soldiers.

But there was no way A Yue would support the idea of the young lady giving up this path just for her son-in-law. Thinking of this, the master and the servant fell into self-worry and depression.

At the gate of the courtyard, Qingyin, who was blocked by the stone pillars, softly signaled to Adou beside him to keep quiet. He said that his wife was nowhere to be found recently. It turned out that she was just developing her career?

Qingyin came out with a smile, "Jinghe."

"A Miao!" An Jinghe turned his head in surprise and looked over.

Sure enough, Qin Miao, who was dressed in a white robe, had been listening for an unknown amount of time.

Thinking about the conversation just now and the fact that the things she had hidden were exposed in front of her husband, An Jinghe couldn't help but lower her head in disappointment.

"Jinghe." Qingyin held her head and said softly:

"If my wife can become a general who fights bravely on the battlefield, as her husband, I will only be proud of her, not ashamed of her. Being ashamed of myself is the thought of a cowardly and incompetent person."

"Also, Jinghe, I like you. I like a woman who is good at martial arts and looks heroic, I like a smart and confident woman, I like a thoughtful woman who can take care of my emotions. Jinghe, I really like you, or I love you."

The gentle rippling words of love burst out in this obscure and taboo society. Qin Miao's words are undoubtedly bold and sincere.

A Yue and A Dou had no idea how much they had been listening to. Their faces had turned red with embarrassment and they quietly retreated, leaving the space in the yard to the sweet young couple.

An Jinghe's eyes were brighter than ever before. With a flushed face, he glanced at Qingyin, his eyes slightly wandering: "A Miao, there is someone else here. Why, just say it out loud?"

The young man laughed and said, "Look back, is there anyone else?"

An Jinghe widened his eyes and looked sideways, and sure enough, A Yue and A Dou had disappeared without a trace.

An Jinghe's face turned red, but he didn't dare to look into the young man's sincere eyes.

What should she do? She clearly felt that her love for Ah Miao had reached a limit every day, but the next day, she felt that the love seemed to have reached an extra level.

After waiting for a long time, A Yue and A Dou, who were guarding the door, caught up with their masters.

A Yue glanced at the young lady jokingly, and succeeded in getting an angry look from An Jinghe.

The impact of the kidnapping case and the princes' fight for the throne gradually disappeared. As the New Year approached, the atmosphere in the capital gradually became festive. The officials and royal relatives in the capital who had been trembling with fear began to have the courage to go out for social events, and people from all walks of life in the court began to prepare for the New Year.

At the critical moment of the New Year, a war broke out on the border. As if knowing the situation in the capital, the barbarians in southern Xinjiang ambitiously invaded the border of the Qing Dynasty and captured several small cities in a row.

It was only because the local officials were afraid of trouble, and the frontier was far away from the capital, that this matter only reached the ears of the capital and the emperor now.

Therefore, the old emperor sitting in the court changed his cheerful expression in the past few days and stared at the ministers below with a stern face.

The atmosphere in the court also fell into an eerie silence.

"Okay, who can tell me about this matter? How do you think we should deal with it?"

A general stepped forward and said, "I think we should fight. As a great country, the Qing Dynasty must suppress these barbarians."

Hearing this, another red-robed civil servant frowned and said, "Your Majesty, the national treasury has just provided food relief to the famine victims in the south, how can there be another sum of money to be used for war?"

"Are we just going to let those barbarians beat us?" The military officer looked at him unhappily.

As the two were talking, quite a few people started to join in.

The emperor tapped his little finger rhythmically, looked at the ministers who were arguing fiercely below, his eyes dark, and cleared his throat.

The crowd below suddenly became quiet, with not a sound.

All the ministers were waiting for the master of the world to speak.

"Chen'er, who do you think should be sent?"

The emperor's words revealed a lot. It was obvious that he was in favor of war. The officials who had opposed it just now calmed down one by one.

But the officials were also secretly guessing what the emperor meant. After all, His Majesty actually asked the third prince, Prince Qi, about such an important matter. Could it be that he had already chosen a preferred candidate for the crown prince?

Everyone couldn't help but focus their attention on Prince Qi, who was in his prime.

Amid the various gazes of the crowd, Prince Qi was still graceful and calm. Facing the emperor's question, he first bowed politely and said, "I think General Qin Yi is good. He is brave and good at fighting. He has rarely lost in the battles he has fought in the past. This time, he will be able to win the victory for our Qing Dynasty very quickly."

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, and his expression could not be seen.

But the people below thought that His Majesty was going to agree, and they came out one after another to support Qin Yi in leading the troops to fight.

On the contrary, the main person in the heated discussion still stood there with a calm expression, appearing to be more indifferent to fame and fortune and more elegant.

This made An Kui standing by the side so angry that he rolled his eyes at him, but when he thought about the purpose of this trip, he endured it again.

His straightforward action also attracted the attention of the old emperor. The emperor's expression changed slightly, and he asked An Kui again.

Unexpectedly, An Kuizhen gave him another answer, which was to let his daughter go out to fight.

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire court suddenly fell silent.

A minute later, everyone objected fiercely. The Fourth Prince mixed in and quietly said a few words to lead the opposition. Then the voices of opposition in the court became louder and louder.

What the officials didn't notice was that the emperor's eyes had changed. As a son, the Fourth Prince, who knew his father a little, looked at the scene and curled the corners of his mouth slightly for a second.

Three days later, Qingyin received the news that his wife was appointed a general and was leading troops to southern Xinjiang to fight against the barbarians.

Before leaving, Qingyin forced An Jinghe to take several bottles of rare life-saving medicines that were rare in ancient times.

A month later, An Jinghe returned victoriously and was promoted to the next level.

Six years later, An Jinghe had replaced his Fuqing and became the youngest general of the Qing Dynasty.

In the seventh year, there was a coup in the imperial court. Prince Qi rebelled and forced the emperor to abdicate. He was stopped by General An and the Fourth Prince, thrown into a dungeon, and confined to the mansion for the rest of his life.

Qin Yiqi was three moves short. He lost every step and the Qin family was completely defeated.

Shortly after one month, the previous emperor passed away, the fourth prince ascended the throne, and An Jinghe was named the General of Protecting the Nation.

An Jinghe and Qin Miao are a couple who are female generals.

Qingyin never had children in her life. For the sake of her career and wishes, she took a drug to make her childless and stayed with An Jinghe for the rest of her life.

An Jinghe was still smiling when he died.
