As soon as he finished speaking, a round of applause immediately rang out. Everyone was cheering and none of them did not wish them good luck.
Especially Hu Xiao, who shouted the loudest. As long as it was something that Zhi Lan liked, no matter if the other party was rich or poor, she would accept it.
At this time, Lu Yin already had some news, he had sent people over to inform Hu Xiao that they were going to attack the North Qiang from the front and back, so the North Qiang ignored everything else.
"A pincer attack?" Hu Xiao’s eyes lit up, she naturally agreed to that, and caught North Qiang by surprise, so that he would not die.
"Everyone, let’s plan our attack routes. If we combine it with Lu Yin and the others’ attack routes, we will definitely be able to defeat North Qiang." Hu Xiao said confidently, she opened up a map and pointed at them, causing everyone to nod their heads from time to time.
By the time the meeting ended, it was already midnight.
"Empress, you should rest early. In two days, the war will begin again." Zhi Lan was very worried about Hu Xiao’s body, she wanted to discuss political matters and bring her men to fight, how could her body take it?
Zhi Lan, do you believe that we will definitely be able to catch the North Qiang by surprise this time? " Hu Xiao smiled sweetly. She thought that she would be able to return to the capital soon.
As she expected, two days later, the battle had lasted for three whole days. Hu Xiao had won, East Court had won, and South Yue had won.
Hu Xiao held a celebratory feast as she thanked him profusely for everything she had done.
Everyone was singing and dancing, all of them were smiling, Hu Xiao was the same, she drank a lot, and looked drunk. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
"Zhi Lan, you can’t let Hu Xiao drink anymore. Help her down." Lu Yin came over to Zhi Lan’s side and said softly.
Hu Xiao just looked drunk on the outside, but in reality, her brain was still clear.
"I’m fine. It’s not a problem to drink another small jar." Hu Xiao held up her wine cup and laughed.
However, Zhi Lan was not at ease. A few days ago, Hu Xiao was exhausted, and now that she had drank a lot of wine, her body would not be able to take it.
"Empress, you can’t drink anymore. If anything happens, how am I supposed to explain this to the emperor!?" Zhi Lan snatched Hu Xiao’s wine cup, stopping her from drinking.
Seeing that Zhi Lan was insisting, Hu Xiao could only smile helplessly, and she gave up. Following that, she turned her gaze and grabbed Lu Yin’s sleeves: "Lu Yin, let’s go out and chat."
Since North Qiang were Lu Yin’s homeland, he wanted to ask Lu Yin what he was going to do next. Would he return to North Qiang or continue to stay by her side?
Lu Yin had already thought about this problem for a few days. He was planning to discuss it with Hu Xiao right now.
"Hu Xiao, do you wish for me to return to the North Qiang, or do you wish for me to work under you?" Lu Yin asked Hu Xiao in return, his mouth opening and closing, exhaling a faintly discernable smell of alcohol.
Hearing this, Hu Xiao smiled slightly. Lu Yin was a person who had the ability and the courage, she naturally hoped that Lu Yin could stay, but she knew that he could not be this selfish. Lu Yin had his own future.
"Lu Yin, aren’t you asking me this just to make things difficult for me!" Hu Xiao shrugged her shoulders, "I won’t restrict your movements. Even if you leave, we are still best friends."
"Okay, Hu Xiao, I want my North Qiang back."
Lu Yin’s eyes flashed with determination. He really did go back, he took the initiative to carry the burden of building a nation, and ascended the throne of the Kingdom of North Qiang.
Due to the dual political and emotional needs, Lu Yin was married to the Third Princess of the West Frontier.
On the side, when Hu Xiao returned to the capital, Minister Wen and the rest all heard that Hu Xiao had won the battle, they all acknowledged their defeat.
This was the outcome that they did not want to see the most, but they could not do anything about it. The Empress had the ability and power to defeat the North Qiang, they could not refuse to accept it.
At this time, when Qin Shuo heard the news that Hu Xiao’s class was back to the imperial court, he immediately held a welcoming ceremony for her.
Qin Shuo’s mood was extremely good. He glanced at Minister Wen and said with a beaming smile, "My beloved daughter, the Queen has returned victoriously. You wouldn’t think this is luck, right?"
Every time Hu Xiao had contributed something, the Minister Wen would always say that Hu Xiao’s luck was good. Now, he used the words of the Minister Wen to ask the Minister Wen questions, precisely because he wanted to hear the Minister Wen’s rebuttal.
After he finished listening, the Minister Wen’s heart quivered. He cupped his hands towards Qin Shuo and said, "Your Majesty, this subject admits defeat."
When he said these words, Minister Wen’s heart was filled with bitterness. After fighting for so long, he actually lost to a little girl, to the point of angering him.
Hu Xiao’s figure grew closer and closer. She could not wait any longer, so he quickly jumped off the city wall and stood at the entrance to welcome her wife.
Seeing Qin Shuo, Hu Xiao immediately jumped off the horse and hugged Qin Shuo tightly. She did not know if it was because the two of them were hugging each other too tightly, but Hu Xiao had actually fainted.
"Xiao-Xiao, don’t scare me. Xiao-Xiao, wake up. Someone, call the imperial physician ..." Not only was Qin Shuo scared to death, even the officials and commoners on the streets were scared too.
He had just come back, how could he have fainted already!
Could it be that the stronghold’s environment was too harsh, and the Empress’s life had already reached its end there?
Qin Shuo carried Hu Xiao and the two of them jumped on their horses, immediately flying towards the palace.
"How is the Queen?" Qin Shuo paced back and forth outside the door. He rubbed his hands together, extremely nervous.
"To reply your majesty, the Empress is pregnant. This is a joyous pulse!" The imperial physician said respectfully, "After the Empress came back, she was too agitated, which was why she fainted. She’ll be fine after a short rest."
Hearing that, Qin Shuo’s face lit up. He was pregnant, but Xiao Xiao Xiao was actually pregnant!
This was something that Qin Shuo did not expect. His face was full of smiles as he shouted excitedly, "Xiao-Xiao is pregnant, We have children!"
He was like a child, jumping and jumping around the room. Everyone who saw this could not help but laugh.
Under the assault of the two joyous news, Qin Shuo forgave the world.
After a few days of rest, Xue Mier’s body had already fully recovered. Once she returned, she took the initiative to pay a visit without waiting for the Minister Wen to send someone to look for her.
Minister Wen had long known about Xue Mier revealing her secret, and at this moment, he was angry.
However, Xue Mier was the imperial concubine, so he had no choice but to come out to welcome her.
"Cousin" Xue Mier took the initiative to greet him, and it was true, in the eyes of the clan members, she was guilty.
"Imperial Concubine, this official’s status is low, I can’t stand you calling me cousin." Minister Wen said with a smile that did not reach his eyes. He suppressed the anger in his heart.
If Xue Mier was his daughter, he would have slapped Xue Mier a long time ago.
"Cousin, in my eyes, kinship will always be the number one. No one can take its place." Xue Mier emphasized her words, otherwise she would not have come here.
Alright, since we are talking about kinship, this Minister Wen has something to say.
