Qin Susu gently touched her forehead, feeling a little guilty for a moment.
She wondered, could this sword really be that woman's?
She swallowed another bite of steamed bun and murmured, "What purpose could I possibly have? I just wanted to find someone. Who knew you guys were so capable?"
"Do you know Ling Qi?" Qiu Yan asked again.
What is this woman's purpose in searching for herself?
"You know him?" Qin Susu wasn't surprised, because she already knew she had come to the right place.
Qiu Yan: "More than just acquaintances." Suddenly, she seemed to... guess the woman's purpose.
It has to be said that Gu Qian was really good to her; he always thought of her, no matter what.
Thinking of this, Qiu Yan's lips curled slightly.
Qin Susu saw it all.
She withdrew her gaze, her expression returning to its usual cool and aloof demeanor.
"Hmph, what's so funny?" I thought she wouldn't laugh.
Qin Susu had a long face; her expression was somewhat amusing.
The people around Qiu Yan seem to be not to be trifled with.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Zhu Juan, who was standing silently not far away, and looked at the general with some doubt.
At the very least, she should be a girl from a modest family.
But she's just a country girl... sigh, a mistress, her status is a bit low, but that doesn't really matter.
Qin Susu shook her head at this thought.
Although she was unwilling, she thought of Gu Qian's promise to her and decided that it was no big deal to lower herself.
Zhu Juan felt uncomfortable when she noticed Qin Susu's gaze on her.
"Why are you looking at me like that? You still haven't said what business you have with my master."
"Master?" Qin Susu was a little confused.
"Mother, let's go. Aren't we still going to Qingyun?" Gu Xiaoran gently tugged at Qiu Yan's sleeve, really not wanting to linger here.
The woman in front of him disliked him.
He wanted to go to Qingyun Mountain with his mother and Qiu Ling'er to collect saltpeter.
There's a bad woman here who makes him uneasy.
"Mother?" In the next instant, Qin Susu suddenly realized what Gu Xiaoran had said earlier.
She said, "I just felt like something was off."
The woman the general has taken a liking to must be extraordinary.
She suddenly turned to look at Qiu Yan: "So, you're Qiu Yan?"
Qiu Yan nodded: "I will not change my name or surname!"
"You've mistaken me for someone else..." Qin Susu lowered her eyes, organizing her thoughts as she spoke.
This woman is actually a mistress?
General Gu was different from everyone else.
Wait, she needs to protect her? Why does she feel that Qiu Yan is more capable than her?
“If you are Qiu Yan, then I will follow you from now on.”
She never intended to condescend to stay by the side of the concubine.
Qin Susu's words were so powerful that everyone around her, except for Qiu Yan, was stunned.
"No way!" Gu Xiaoran was the first to stand up and object without even thinking. "I disagree. You can leave. We don't need anyone here."
After what had just happened, he didn't have a very good impression of this woman.
Qiu Yan coughed lightly... Sure enough, her guess came true.
"You're quite confident."
Bai Lu silently shook her head; she couldn't make the decision for Qiu Yan.
"I..." Qin Susu was somewhat embarrassed and annoyed, but she still lowered her voice.
"This is...his order. I am just a weak woman, I dare not disobey." She had said something inappropriate in the military camp yesterday, so Gu Qian assigned her to a woman's side to protect her.
Gu Qian promised her that once the war was over, he would allow her to join the camp, and that he would grant her any requests for merit or fame in the future.
This was unprecedented in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Qin Susu had a dream of becoming a hero since she was a child, and she also liked chivalrous heroes. Therefore, she often dressed up as a man and robbed the rich to help the poor.
This is also a major reason why she looked down on her weak and scholarly husband.
Today, she's stuck with Qiu Yan.
She glanced at Qiu Yan cautiously.
Seeing that she was no longer speaking, she turned her gaze to Bai Lu and tried to get closer to her.
"Who are you to Ling Qi?"
