The Return of the Marquis's Daughter

Chapter 176 De'an Garden

"That's true. People in this world flatter the powerful and look down on the weak. If our Qin Marquis Mansion had always been like this, how could they be so disgusted with us?

Actually, I might also say something about it, because that’s just human nature.”

Qin Wenlan: ...

Isn't this quite clear?

"In fact, we can't blame the Li family. After all, he is the prefect of a prefecture and is considered the leader of the area.

"They have both real power and wealth; they are nothing in the capital, but they are a very important presence in the countryside."

"But I didn't invite them to come over to discuss marriage with our Qin family. Didn't they send the matchmaker to our Qin family?"

Qin Jinyu just couldn't swallow this humiliation. Did he treat her as a joke, or did he want to use her as a springboard?

"Okay, now you haven't succeeded, right? You should pay more attention to this aspect in the future. You are not the only girl in our Qinhou Mansion, so you should consult with others when encountering problems."

Qin Wenlan looked at the woman in front of her. She didn't want Qin Jinyu to marry the widower of the Li family in this life. In her previous life, she didn't care how Qin Jinyu lived in the end.

But she's afraid it won't be very stable, after all, they already have two children, so in this life, she still wants Qin Jinyu to marry a family that can treat her better than in her previous life.

Qin Jinyu knew that Wenlan was doing this for her own good, so she nodded and said, "Well, next time I won't be so alone and sulking like this."

"That's right. Life is already difficult for women, so why would you make it more difficult for yourself? As the saying goes, if one family doesn't work, try another.

If the West family is still not doing well, let's go and take a look at the South family. If the South family is not doing well either, don't we still have the North family?

Anyway, there will always be a family in this world that is worth entrusting your life to." Qin Wenlan said with a smile on his face.

Then the two of them started talking happily.

Suddenly a voice was heard, "Master." Qin Wenlan turned around and looked towards the source of the voice.

It was Mudan who came over. "What's wrong? Did something happen? Otherwise, why can't you wait even for a moment?"

"Hmm." Mudan hesitated.

Qin Jinyu knew that they probably had something important to say, so she took the initiative to say, "Lan'er, if you have anything to say, go ahead. I'll go talk to Grandma."

"Well, you go first. Maybe I will go there again. If I don't go there again, please tell me for me." Qin Wenlan said.

After seeing Qin Jinyu leave, Mudan said directly: "Something big happened in the northern border."

Qin Wenlan frowned, "What happened? Why are you so panicked?"

Hadn’t Censor Yu yet gone to the Qinzheng Palace to impeach him? What big thing could possibly happen now?

"Master, let's go back to Fanrongyuan first. Brother Tan is still waiting."

"Well, let's go!"

"Master, this is the message Chu Mingyang sent to Brother Tan."

As soon as I returned to Fanrong Courtyard, I saw Tan Songyun walking back and forth in the yard with an anxious look on her face.

"Master, Chu Mingyang said that Northern Xinjiang had requested reinforcements before, but they just hadn't received approval from the court."

Tan Songyun said with a worried look on her face, "Chu Mingyang heard from people in the Ministry of War that not only was someone deliberately blocking the reinforcements, but they also went to the Qinzheng Palace to complain that Marquis Jing'an was a vainglorious individual.

It is said that Marquis Jing'an just wanted to gain more credit for himself, so he went to fight against Northern Frontier without any regard for the consequences. How could he not fail?

He also said that since he was such a good fighter, we shouldn't send troops there to see how good he was. He has plenty of men anyway."

Qin Wenlan had heard Gu Changan mention the war in the northern border before, but he never imagined that the situation would become so serious now.

"Marquis Jing'an failed this time. Will the court punish him?"

“There is a huge quarrel in the court right now. One faction wants to severely punish Jing’an Marquis.

One faction directly stated that if they had not sent troops to support the northern border, and had let Jing'an Hou and his men fight alone, they would surely fail.

No one can win this battle. The enemy from the northern border has mobilized all its forces, while Marquis Jing'an only has a few soldiers.

Now both sides are confused about His Majesty's intentions, and those who make suggestions dare not be too aggressive. However, from what Chu Mingyang said, it seems that Jing'an Hou is in some danger this time. After all, without reinforcements from the court, he can't hold on forever. "

Qin Wenlan thought of Gu Yunzhou using Yu Hongmin to impeach Marquis Wucheng. Could it be that the bastard had already learned all the news about the war in the northern border, and he wanted to cut off Marquis Jing'an's retreat and then bring down Marquis Wucheng.

If Marquis Wucheng is unable to take care of himself, he will naturally be unable to make plans for Marquis Jing'an. Was Gu Yunzhou so smart and wise in his previous life?

Qin Wenlan felt increasingly cold in his heart. How could they take the soldiers who were guarding the border seriously?

Are those soldiers who guard the territory worthy of death, and are the lives of the people on the border worthless?

Gu Yunzhou...

"Master, what's wrong with you? Why do you suddenly look so ugly?" Tan Songyun was startled and asked quickly.

Qin Wenlan shook his head, looked at Tan Songyun and asked, "Brother Tan, can Chu Mingyang, with his current status, have a say in the Minister of War?"

Tan Songyun said directly: "That will definitely work. After all, they already had contact last time. However, what is the master planning to do now?"

"Well, let me think about it." Qin Wenlan stood at the door, looking at the flowers and plants in the flower garden in the distance that were beginning to wither.

Nothing can happen to Marquis Jing'an right now, and nothing can happen to Marquis Wucheng either.

If something really happened to them, Gu Yunzhou would seize the opportunity and use his confidants to fill their places.

That would be very disadvantageous for Gu Changan, and for her as well.

It seems that Gu Yunzhou in this life is more aggressive than in his previous life. Who would have thought that he would start to attack Marquis Jing'an now.

If I think about it carefully, it might be because of Gu Jingyi's matter that forced Queen Wen and her son to take action in advance.

After all, they have already offended Prince Yong's Mansion. If they do not take any action, it will be extremely difficult to win people over in the future.

But Prince Yong sent his son to the Marquis of Jing'an. They were of course afraid that Gu Jingyi would return with military merit one day. Wouldn't that increase the bargaining chips and weight of Prince Yong's Mansion? They and their son could not allow such a situation to happen.

After Qin Wenlan gradually calmed down, he looked at Tan Songyun and said, "This matter is of great importance. Brother Tan should still tell Chu Mingyang not to come forward in person."

If Chu Mingyang were to go down in person and be targeted, it would harm him instead.

After hearing this, Tan Songyun frowned and asked, "Why, Master still doesn't trust him?"

Qin Wenlan: ...
