Quick Wear: The soft cannon fodder turns into a heartthrob and seduce
Chapter 692 The Childhood Sweetheart Used as a Shield (2)
Qin Yansi rushed to the border, recovered the lost territory, and did not leave after completing this mission.
Instead, they sowed discord, ultimately leading the Daman Kingdom to mistakenly believe that the Great Xia's target was actually them, thus initiating a war first.
Qin Yansi knew that if he informed the capital of the situation, he would likely only be told to intimidate the Daman Kingdom and force them back to their own grasslands, without having to launch a major attack.
But Qin Yansi went to great lengths; how could he have just been trying to scare them?
Therefore, he decided to take a risk, disregard military orders, and lead his troops to directly invade the territory of Daman.
He finally avenged himself by brutally killing King Daman. To make amends, he also defeated more than a dozen surrounding small tribes and countries, forcing them to surrender.
However, when he led his troops away like this, the other generals naturally thought that he had become disloyal, so they quickly sent the news of his treason to the capital.
Qin Yansi knew that his actions were unforgivable, so after his great victory, he had his story spread among the people.
Now the whole of Great Xia knows that the mighty general is willing to bear the infamy of treason in order to bring all the neighboring countries under his control for the sake of the stability of Great Xia for the next few decades.
Now, having returned victorious, he asks for no reward, preferring to relinquish military power in exchange for peace and tranquility for the Great Xia.
In this way, even if the Empress Dowager is angry, she can't do anything to him.
Not only should we not blame him, we should also treat him well.
At that time, the original owner had been tortured to the point of barely clinging to life.
Upon learning that she was merely a part of Qin Yansi's plan, the original owner was filled with remorse.
She only managed to say one last thing, "I hate you," before closing her eyes completely.
Qin Yansi was devastated.
It seemed as if they were completely unaware that their actions would implicate the original owner and her family.
He frankly stated that he "has lived up to the Emperor's grace and the ancestors, but he has failed her alone."
Knowing he had implicated the original owner of the body, he married her memorial tablet and even petitioned the emperor to bestow upon her the title of Princess Tai Rong.
The entire capital city sang his praises as a kind and righteous young man with a heart for the world.
But the truth is far more complex.
Qin Yansi had been preparing for this plan for many years.
He knew that the Empress Dowager was suspicious and would not easily give him the tiger tally, allowing him to lead tens of thousands of troops to the border.
After all, for someone in a high position, he had no ties, unlike other generals who could leave their families in the capital.
But he had no choice but to do this in order to get revenge.
Therefore, just to be on the safe side, he deliberately created a weakness for himself.
That was the original owner.
To increase credibility, Qin Yansi repeatedly made enemies with other officials on her behalf and used his military merits to obtain ginseng for her.
Finally, the Empress Dowager believed it.
He not only gained military power, but also successfully protected the woman he loved.
Yes, Qin Yansi has someone he loves.
Luo Mengyao was a border woman he rescued on the battlefield.
She was resilient, courageous, and resourceful, and shared his hatred for the Daman people.
Although not as stunning as the original owner, she has a unique charm.
As they spent more time together, Qin Yansi began to fall for her.
But he knew he absolutely could not expose Luo Mengyao's existence, otherwise it would definitely attract threats from the Empress Dowager and other members of the royal family.
Qin Yansi hid Luo Mengyao in a shop under the name of the royal palace, making her the owner of the rouge shop.
The original owner was, in effect, a shield.
He knew very well that if news of his disobedience to military orders reached him, Mu Zhou and the entire Mu family would bear the wrath of the Empress Dowager. But he still chose to do so and secretly vowed that as long as he could return safely, he would make amends to the original owner, marry her, and treat her well for the rest of his life.
Qin Yansi believed that this arrangement was enough to do right by the original owner.
Even though he deeply loved Luo Mengyao, he never intended for her to threaten the original owner's position.
He will give the original owner status and title, but his heart can only be given to Luo Mengyao.
He had also discussed these things with Luo Mengyao, and she understood everything.
She also stated that she didn't care whether the woman was a concubine, a mistress, or even a mistress, and would still serve her mistress well.
Qin Yansi was overjoyed.
In the end, the original owner's family died tragically, which can only be blamed on the Empress Dowager's ruthlessness.
He also sought posthumous honors for her and married her memorial tablet.
Luo Mengyao can only ever be a second wife.
He thought that even if the original owner knew this from beyond the grave, he would be moved.
After doing all this, he completely let go of his guilt towards the original owner of the body.
Years later, when the matter was no longer mentioned, he married Luo Mengyao.
Recalling this, Mu Zhou looked at the already overcast sky and couldn't help but let out a soft scoff.
No wonder the original owner was so resentful.
Having avenged his great enemy and married the woman he loved, Qin Yansi was ecstatic.
However, it was the original owner and the entire Mu family who made the sacrifices.
Her wish was to make Qin Yansi experience the suffering she had endured.
Secondly, she hopes to protect herself and her family.
Seeing that her young mistress remained motionless, the maid Fenyu stepped forward to persuade her:
"Miss, it's windy again. Your cough hasn't gotten better yet, so please go back inside."
Mu Zhou nodded and slowly stood up.
She stepped into the room and looked at the desolate emptiness inside.
In fact, the original owner should have realized long ago that Qin Yansi didn't care about her at all.
The Mu family was poor, and the position of the original owner's father in the Hanlin Academy was a low-paying one, barely enough to make ends meet with his salary.
Therefore, the Mu family had very few servants, and Mu Zhou, the young lady from a secluded family, appeared quite poor.
Her room was filled with cheap, worthless decorations.
Her hair was simply adorned with a single silver hairpin, and the jade bracelet on her wrist wasn't particularly translucent.
Every time the original owner was out, she was ridiculed for being poor and shabby. Qin Yansi had clearly heard this, but he never gave the original owner even a single piece of jewelry.
The original owner always thought he was a macho man who didn't pay attention to these things concerning young girls.
In reality, he collected many rare treasures and gave them all to Luo Mengyao. Before setting off, he even entrusted all of the Qin family's fields, shops, and silver to Luo Mengyao to manage.
His thought was that even if he really couldn't come back, Luo Mengyao could still live a comfortable life without worrying about food or clothing.
Ah.
They really made every possible plan for her.
Mu Zhou waved to Fen Yu and said:
"Fenyu, go tell Mother that I'm going out for a bit."
"Yes."
Since Qin Yansi is heartless, then don't blame her for being ruthless.
Now that Qin Yansi's departure for war is unavoidable, he must make their marriage a reality no matter what.
Even if she refuses today, he will likely come to propose marriage tomorrow.
Moreover, Mu Zhou would not change her mind about entering the palace.
Because the person she wants to win over is in the palace.
*
Mu Zhou was helped down from the carriage by Fen Yu.
It's normal for her to prepare some personal items for Qin Yansi, who is about to go on a campaign.
After buying some comfortable fabrics, she passed by a cosmetics shop.
"Fenyu, is my lip rouge gone? Perfect timing, let's go in and take a look."
Fenyu glanced at the shop's signboard and a smile spread across her face:
"Miss, this is General Qin's shop."
"really?"
The original owner didn't care much about these material possessions, so it's normal that he didn't understand them.
So Fenyu nodded vigorously:
"Miss, let's go inside."
As soon as the two stepped inside, a beautiful young woman lifted the curtain and came out from the inner room.
