As soon as the man's words fell, Emperor Zongsheng snorted coldly while sitting on the dragon chair, his face was a little unhappy... All the civil and military officials below all lowered their heads, not daring to look directly into Emperor Zongsheng's eyes...

The person who came out waited until he was quiet, and then said: "Your Majesty, among the hundreds of civil and military officials present, although they are all civil officials, there is still one person who can be recommended..."

"Huh?" Zong Shengdi's unhappy request subsided a little: "Say..."

"When the country was founded, the ancestors of the Qiu family followed the emperor to conquer the country of the powerful dynasty. The Qiu family was the family of military generals and assisted the founding emperors for several generations. Later, due to the need, it gradually became the family of civil servants... But I think that the Qiu family He must still be practicing martial arts by now. Compared with our other civil servants, the Qiu family should still have the passion and ability to fight in their blood. Therefore, I think that the Qiu family is undoubtedly the best candidate for this expedition... "The man who came out finished speaking with his head down, Zong Shengdi also showed a thoughtful expression on his face...

The hall fell silent, and after a long time, Emperor Zong Sheng looked at Qiu Jinming who had been quiet since he mentioned this matter: "Jinming, what do you think?"

The relationship between the royal family and the Qiu family has always been good, and Emperor Zong Sheng wanted to call him by his first name. Although it was not in compliance with the rules, no one dared to criticize

Qiu Jinming took a step to the side, folded his hands and bowed his head, and said, "If your majesty needs it, my Qiu family is willing to do the work of dogs and horses..."

Emperor Zong Sheng looked at Qiu Jinming for a while, and then he still didn't say anything, and looked at the other people in the hall again: "Do you have any suggestions for the rest of Ai Qing?"

After a few breaths, another person stood up and said, "I have a suggestion..."

"Wang Aiqing, please say..." Zong Shengdi waved his hand, motioning for the other two to stand back, looking at the official surnamed Wang, motioning for him to speak

The official surnamed Wang said: "Your Majesty, although the Qiu family is good, I think that Man Yiren has repeatedly violated the border this time, intending to challenge the imperial prestige. This time, the Emperor can send another prince to go with him. Come here to show the authority of the royal family, and the common people will feel more at ease when they hear that the prince is going to fight..."

Emperor Zong Sheng supported himself on the dragon chair with one arm, with an inexplicable expression on his face, and he tapped his chin with his fingers: "There are currently five princes under my knees, and the eighth prince is still young, so I don't consider it. Which prince is the most suitable to send?"

"I think the fourth prince is the most suitable..." the official surnamed Wang replied...

"Oh? Why?" Zong Shengdi narrowed his eyes and looked at the official surnamed Wang, his body was full of chills...

"Both the second prince and the third prince have made military achievements and have been named princes, but the fourth prince and the fifth prince have not yet... In terms of age, it is most appropriate to send the fourth prince this time..." The official surnamed Wang lowered his head, Emperor Zong Sheng He sat up and looked at the official surnamed Wang. After a few breaths, Emperor Zong Sheng said: "This matter is discussed here today. I have made my own decision. All my lovers can retreat..."

Walking out of the main hall, all the officials had expressions of relief on their faces, only Qiu Jinming was frowning. As the sedan chair got closer to the gate of the Qiu family, the expression on Qiu Jinming's face became more and more dignified...

After lunch, Qiu Jinming came outside Liu Yingxue's yard, lingered at the door for a long time, not daring to go in...

"Ma'am, the master has been standing at the door for an hour, haven't you seen him?" Chun'er looked at Liu Yingxue's expression, and said cautiously...

Liu Yingxue put down the teacup, looked at Chun'er with evil eyes, just when she was about to refuse, she remembered what Qiu Shaoxi told her to get along with Qiu Jinming before leaving, sighed, frowned, and said: "Tell him to come in Bar…"

A look of joy appeared on Chun'er's face: "Yes, ma'am..."

When Qiu Jinming followed Chun'er into the yard, his face was still a little disbelieving. Liu Yingxue, who had always been invisible without taking the initiative, would take the initiative to ask him to go in. Qiu Jinming sat at the table and shook Liu Yingxue's hand a little excitedly: "Yingxue..." Unexpectedly, as soon as she posted it, Liu Yingxue quickly pulled her hand out: "Just say something..."

"Yingxue..." Qiu Jinming's eyes flashed a trace of loneliness, and his expression was mixed with a trace of bitterness... After a long silence, he slowly said what happened in the court today

"What!" Liu Yingxue threw the teacup on the table, stood up and said angrily, "Qiu Jinming! The Qiu family has never taught martial arts since Congwen. Why didn't you react to the emperor about these things!"

However, Qiu Jinming shook his head, supported his forehead, and couldn't bear it: "Yingxue, you should calm down first, the fact that the Qiu family has taught martial arts from the beginning will not change whether the Qiu family is going to go to war. Things, after all, from the perspective of the court, only the Qiu family, which used to be the family of generals, is the most suitable..."

Liu Yingxue sat down, with a trace of sadness flashing across her face: "Why, Shao Chao is weak and Shao Xi is so young, why... Right! And Qiu Shaohan, just let Qiu Shaohan go!"

Just as Qiu Jinming was about to shake his head, Qiu'er walked in quickly: "Master, madam..."

Liu Yingxue restored the expression on her face to the one where nothing happened: "What happened?"

"Tui'er under the Second Madam came to look for Master..." Qiu'er lowered her head and said...

The corners of Liu Yingxue's eyebrows twitched, and an ominous premonition crossed her heart...Qiu Jinming said with a sullen face, "Call her in..."

"Yes..." Qiu'er hurried out of the door after answering, and after a while, another maid in green clothes walked in: "Master, madam..."

"What's the matter?" Qiu Jinming asked...

"Master, something happened to Second Young Master..." Tweety said with a panicked expression...

"What's the matter!" This time it was not Qiu Jinming who asked anxiously, but Liu Yingxue... Cui'er was obviously startled by Liu Yingxue's sudden interruption, but she immediately recovered her composure, glanced at Qiu Jinming, and said, "Second Young Master and Young Master Shen are going to the lakeside I was playing, and I fell from my horse into the lake one night..."

"Oh...it's okay, it's okay..." Liu Yingxue heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it's not a big deal, and he should still be able to go on the expedition.

However, Tweety went on to say: "The doctor has already visited, and said that the ice and snow in the lake that the second son fell into has not completely melted, and the water is cold, and the second son has froze to death and needs to be recuperated for a year..." Tweety said After that, Liu Yingxue's breath was suffocated...

What happened to the Qiu family, Qiu Shaoxi, who was sweating in the field, didn't know yet, because they both worked together, Lu Ze and Qiu Shaoxi worked much faster, and it was not dark yet. The work in the field is almost done.

Qiu Shaoxi straightened up, and Lu Ze who was beside him hurried over: "Xiao Xi, there is only a little left, I can do this by myself, you go and rest..."
