Chapter 73 Dreaming(1/2)
Qin Guanzhong did not return to the Qin Mansion for several days, but Qin Tian received a message from the Wei family in the afternoon.
"Did Miss Wei give it to me?" Qin Tian took the post and saw that it seemed to be a post for the Wei family's Beginning of Autumn Banquet.
Su Ye was not sure, "It should be Miss Wei."
After all, Mrs. Wei would not give a message to a junior, and it was even less possible for a man from the Wei family.
But Qin Tian opened the post and saw it, but it was not Wei Miao's handwriting.
And Su Ye took out another thing, which was a thin copybook, "This was also sent by the servants of the Wei family."
Qin Tian looked at the invitation and then at the copybook.
Mr. Wei Wei Yunce.
These are what he prepared for her.
Qin Tian hadn't been to the academy for a few days, but he still took care to give her something.
This really made Qin Tian feel a little flattered, and he couldn't help but think of what Miss Yang had guessed that day.
She wasn't sure what Mr. Wei meant, and she really didn't know how to face it, so she could only ask someone to politely refuse it for her. However, her aunt was unwell, so she wanted to stay at home to take care of her illness, so she also nodded to her concubine.
identity.
Qin Tian had always had a low reputation, and was still a little embarrassed to reject Wei Yunce's kindness, so he spent the whole day attending to the illness carefully to find some peace of mind for himself.
But my father, who had been busy for several days and had not been seen, came back that night.
He didn't know what Mrs. Qin had guessed. He just came to see how Mrs. Qin was doing. Seeing that Qin Tian was also very happy, he directly postponed the evening's affairs and said he would stay at home for dinner.
Of course Qin Tian felt good about it and went to the stove to prepare it himself.
But Mrs. Qin called her husband to speak alone.
"Jing Niang, what's the matter? I heard that my brothers and sisters are coming over this afternoon. Everyone at home is fine."
Before Qin Guanzhong finished speaking, he suddenly heard his wife ask.
"I'm just asking you, my own child, why are you hiding anything and not letting me know?!"
As soon as the words fell, Qin Guanzhong stood still.
"Jing Niang you"
Mrs. Qin had been deceived by him not once or twice. Although she knew it was not an accident this time, she still made her husband angry.
"Why didn't Si Jin tell me about going to Su Zhengjun? You just kept it a secret. I didn't even know that he was out there. I thought he went to the coastal defense station to hide how much he was hiding from me?"
she asked angrily.
Qin Guanzhong's expression shook for a moment, and he looked at her. Seeing that she was panting with anger, he quickly stepped forward to help her.
"It's all my fault. It's fine if you blame me, but don't make yourself angry."
Mrs. Qin was angry that her husband kept everything from her, but she was also angry that she was in poor health and had been unable to stop taking medicine for many years. Now she heard that her husband did not refute a word, but only admitted his mistake in front of his face.
Others would hardly dare to imagine this matter, but since he had been treating her like this for decades, Mrs. Qin had nothing to say.
"What's the use of me blaming you? Si Jin is old and has his own ideas. As a mother, I won't stop him from doing what he wants to do, but you should let me know.
"
Qin Guanzhong agreed, and Mrs. Qin asked Qin Shen about what happened on the battlefield.
General Zhang is making military preparations. Although there are many urging voices from the court, it still depends on General Zhang's own wishes as to when to start the war.
The same goes for Su Zhengjun during this period.
"Si Jin is fine everywhere, you don't have to worry."
The mother is worried when her son travels thousands of miles, but she is lying if she says she is not worried.
Mrs. Qin said, "Don't say I'm worried. Even Tiantian and I are a little worried about her elder brother. She also said that she would go check it out for me, so that it would be difficult for the child."
"Tiantian? Are you really going to the battlefield?" Qin Guanzhong suddenly asked.
"Is that still false?" Mrs. Qin said, "But how can she, a little girl, go to such a dangerous place? I didn't agree."
Mrs. Qin said some more words and became a little depressed.
Qin Guanzhong let her have a good rest, and when he left the room, he met Qin Tian coming back from the stove.
Qin Tian saluted her father, "I made stewed duck with winter melon and barley on the stove, and cooked rice with lotus leaf water. These are all foods to relieve the heat. Dad will eat more at night."
When she said this, Qin Guanzhong nodded and said hello, but walked up to her and asked her.
"You told your wife that you were going to Yanzhou to see your elder brother?"
Qin Tian said, "It's a pity that Madam was worried about my comfort and refused to agree."
"Then you want to go on your own? Aren't you afraid?"
Qin Tian said that he shouldn't be afraid, "My daughter has never been there, so I don't know if she is afraid, but I think she shouldn't be afraid. It was a battlefield for petitioning the people, not just a slaughterhouse for fighting, right?"
After Qin Tian finished speaking, he saw that his father did not respond for a while. After a long while, he said something.
"My son is right. If you are not afraid, you can go and see it with your own eyes."
"Father allows me to go?!" Qin Tian was surprised. A few days ago, her father had told her not to leave Qingzhou.
Her father said yes.
"Go ahead, there's nothing wrong with it."
After he finished speaking, he called someone to arrange the matter.
Qin Tian was still a little surprised. He didn't know why his father's attitude changed here, but he was suddenly able to go to the front line to visit his elder brother, so he put those doubts aside.

Suzheng military camp.
The imperial army mobilized troops and generals more and more frequently, and the war with the Suzheng Army only happened in the past few days.
The Suzheng Army came into being. Except for Qin Shen, there was no one to lead the troops. These days, Qin Shen organized his troops and promoted three generals from the army, but it still depends on whether they can handle the big task.
The next battle with the imperial court.
In the evening, Qin Shen wanted to go to several generals and instructors to discuss training matters. Sun Wenjing suddenly sent someone to invite him over.
Qin Shen could only put down what he was doing and went to Sun Wenjing's camp.
Sun Wenjing heard his footsteps and went to the door to greet him personally, "Look who is coming?"
Qin Shen didn't know it, but when he lifted the curtain and looked over, it was Mr. He who came.
After everyone exchanged pleasantries, Mr. He asked about the war with the imperial army.
Qin Shen said, "It's only two or three days."
Mr. He nodded and asked about the preparations. Qin Shen briefly said, "The main reason is that there are limited soldiers and generals, and many arrangements are difficult to form."
After hearing this, Mr. He asked Sun Wenjing how he was doing.
"I heard that there are people in Xingzhou to the west raising flags and forming a public appeal army. To the south there is also the Nancheng Army who just rebelled against the imperial court a few days ago. Is it possible to win over them? If the three armies form a coalition, there will be more manpower.
Already."
With the Su Zheng army at the front, rebellions are gradually rising across the country like beacon smoke.
Sun Wenjing also thought about the alliance, "I sent someone to find out before, but whoever doesn't want to be the king is willing to be subordinate to others. Although the Suzheng Army has no king, we can't just listen to their arrangements. I
I think this may be difficult to accomplish, especially since the Nancheng Army in the south is quite far away from Yanzhou and will not be able to contact it for a while."
He said, "Taoist Priest Shouyuan still hopes that this matter will come true. He went to those two places in person and tried to convince the kings of the two armies that even if no one can give in, they must still join forces to fight against the imperial court. But there is no reply yet."
Mr. He stroked his beard and was silent for a while.
"As a result, the difficulty of limited soldiers and generals cannot be alleviated for a while."
Qin Shen, who led the Suzheng Army, could only rely on himself to find ways to resist the imperial court's suppression.
Qin Shen was silent.
But Sun Wenjing suddenly sighed.
"It would be great if we could find the Princess of the East Palace! There will be new crown princes in succession. Now there is no need to worry about the common people or soldiers joining the Su Zheng Army."
Since Qin Shen discovered that Yueying was not the princess, there were no more clues about the princess.
Who and where the princess is is unknown.
He even had no hope for this, Mr. He said.
"It's not the best time for the princess to appear now. Let's take another step and see what happens."
Qin Shen looked at him.
The three of them talked about some military affairs, and Mr. He asked Qin Shen carefully what preparations General Zhang had made, and discussed with Qin Shen until the drum sounded at the third watch.
Qin Shen saw that the old man looked tired and said that he would talk tomorrow before it was too late for Mr. He to take a rest.
Qin Shen returned to his tent and looked at the map for a long time before sitting on the chair and falling asleep with his forehead propped up.
