She transmigrated into a widow and farmed to raise vests.

I waited for a long time but didn't hear any voice.

Qin Yu didn't rush to speak, and just waited quietly.

My breathing was steady, and my ears were keenly attentive to the breathing around me.

Lu Chen toyed with a mirror in his hand, but his eyes were probing as he looked at her.

Seeing her standing calmly, without any fear or worry, I was quite puzzled.

After a long silence, he finally broke it himself.

"Greetings, Madam Qin. I've come to you because I know something, haven't I?"

Qin Yu clenched his fist, remaining noncommittal.

Should she know something?

Is this general testing me in some way?

Qin Yu pretended not to hear and lowered her eyes, waiting for him to continue speaking.

"Qin Yu...Qin Yu..."

Lu Chen called out softly twice, feeling a sense of familiarity.

But I can't recall where I've heard the name before.

The candlelight flickered, casting his seated figure on the window.

The mirror in his hand was flipped over, and as the candlelight flickered, a circle of light flashed by.

It was sweeping across Qin Yu's face.

Though faint, she could feel it.

My heart skipped a beat. How could that be?

My hands clenched involuntarily, but I dared not answer casually.

Lu Chen still noticed her subtle expression.

A confident smile.

She reached out and beckoned to the soldiers to remove the cloth from her face!

"I never imagined that such a talented person as Madam Qin could exist in this remote little place!"

Qin Yu's eyes met the light source, and he raised his hand to shield them, taking a moment to see what was in front of him clearly.

Judging from his tone, he had no intention of admitting it.

"I am just an ordinary person, a widow who has lost her husband. I am just trying to do some business. I don't know what I did to offend this general. I don't understand what you mean!"

Lu Chenxing looked at Qin Yu with his bright eyes.

In the dim candlelight, a slight smile played on his lips, and his eyes softened.

Qin Yu was startled. She felt that she had seen this person before and knew him!

But she didn't know who it was!

It feels very familiar.

However, he suppressed the urge to find out and stood aside with his eyes lowered.

"As for the others, I don't understand either!"

"Don't understand?" Lu Chen almost laughed.

He sent Li Hai back to find the person first, while he himself waited outside the villa for two days.

He knew everything that happened at that villa during those two days!

It is precisely because I know this that I seek out the woman in front of me!

"Madam Qin, harboring enemy troops and treason are the same crime. Doesn't Madam Qin intend to explain?"

He had something more important than the charge of harboring enemy troops!

"I am a businesswoman. The manor does not check the identities of its guests beforehand. I have no idea who they are or what law they have broken!"

Qin Yu naturally denied it; this person was clearly using this as a bargaining chip.

"Besides, businessmen only care about money. I don't know about the person you arrested, but he still hasn't paid me the two thousand taels of gold he owed me in two days! I beg you, General, to help me get that money back!"

Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but sigh at the woman's ruthlessness.

A thousand gold coins a day, that's a lot of money, I really want it!

"I'm afraid we'll never get this money back!"

Lu Chen stood up, holding the mirror in his hand, and walked to her side.

"Madam Qin, I won't beat around the bush with you anymore!"

He held up the mirror and placed it in front of Qin Yu.

It dangled before her eyes.

On the reflected mirror, Qin Yu's eyebrows were slightly raised.

Before Qin Yu could speak, the man gave a command.

A person dressed in black and wearing a black hood was brought in.

It was thrown directly at Qin Yu's feet.

The hood was removed, revealing a person in the third year of junior high school.

"elder sister!"

When the third-year junior high student saw Qin Yu, his face immediately showed panic.

Qin Yu was also surprised to see the third-year junior high school student.

She didn't even know when she was arrested.

The signaler was the squad leader.

It was the team members' responsibility to do.

I don't know if the first-year junior high students know about the third-year junior high students' disappearance.

Thinking about it, Qin Yu felt a little scared.

He wondered to himself how much this person in front of him knew!

"General, I don't understand what this means. What has my brother done to deserve this?"

Qin Yu remained calm on the surface.

I feel a little irritated.

The third-year junior high student went missing, and now that he has been brought here, they are likely to lose their composure.

They might launch a surprise attack on the military camp, which would be a serious crime!

"I didn't do anything to him; he resisted, so I had no choice but to subdue him!"

Lu Chen underestimated the boy in front of him.

I originally thought he only knew some basic martial arts, but it turns out he's quite skilled.

They brought him into the military camp and wounded several soldiers.

"This thing, it's also on him. To be frank, how did you use this thing to send signals? How did you use it to transmit messages?!"

Shen Qianli is certainly important.

But he saved the people of the manor and also knew what had happened between the person in front of him and Shen Qianli.

Therefore, he knew that this woman was not harboring anyone.

But he could only use this excuse to get the information he wanted to know from her!

"There's been fighting ahead. This thing can transmit signals. I'd like to ask Lady Qin to inform me!"

Qin Yu, however, heard a different meaning.

This person knew that mirrors were used to transmit signals, which means that this person had been following them for at least two days.

If you think so.

She didn't even notice! She was so careless!

"Madam Qin, we are all subjects of the Great Yao Dynasty, and I didn't truly intend to imprison you..."

"Okay! I can speak!"

Qin Yu agreed.

Although I disagree with what the man is doing, it's not a big deal.

It was originally intended for combat use, so he should just give it to him!

"Really?" Lu Chen was somewhat skeptical.

He had prepared a lot of things to say, but before he could even persuade her, she actually agreed!

"But you injured my brother, how are we going to settle that score?"

Qin Yu has always been protective of his own.

These were all adopted by her, and they were all her soldiers. Naturally, she would settle the score for them being beaten and imprisoned.

Lu Chen smiled helplessly.

He almost forgot that this woman never suffers a loss!

"There's war going on right now, so if you need compensation, you'll probably have to wait a year or two. If you need me to promise anything, I can grant you one condition, as an apology to your brother!"

Lu Chen couldn't think of a way to apologize for a while.

This woman must really want money, to say she can earn a thousand gold coins a day.

But the front lines are short of money and food, and we really can't come up with the money, so we have to settle for second best!

Promises? How can you keep them? Forget about it.

If this person becomes a great general in the future, perhaps I can really get him to make a promise to me.

Better than nothing.

"Alright, then I need a promise from you!"

Lu Chen smiled broadly when he saw that she had agreed.

"Very well, a word I, Lu Chen, keep is a word. If Madam Qin wishes for anything in the future, or needs me, Lu Chen, to do anything, just give the order, and I will do my utmost to fulfill it!"

Qin Yu's eyelids twitched incessantly upon hearing his words.

"You said your name is Lu Chen?"
