Chapter 818 The whole family is a rebel (102)

Wang Wu and Zhong Xing joined forces again, catching the aristocratic families off guard and making some people with ulterior motives in the court truly see and accept the reality of "change of dynasty".

This realization made the court much quieter afterwards, and the number of memorials submitted to the royal father and son case was more than one-third less than in the past.

For some time, the court had been arguing over Jin Yan's enthronement and the stationing of troops and farming in the North. However, Jin Yan, the lord of the North who was at the center of the vortex, was not affected at all.

When she was busy, she was often not seen for several days in a row. Once she was free, she would go to the palace to accompany her parents and her poor brother the Crown Prince, discuss some important matters that could not be disclosed to outsiders with her second brother and cousin, and go out for fun with her younger brother Xiao Jinan. Although the supposed hunting and playing would eventually turn into inspecting the people's sentiments and redressing grievances for them, Xiao Jinan never got tired of it.

For Xiao Jinan, the previous few years of forced separation were too long. He couldn't bear to be separated from his sister for too long, so he wanted to stay by her side and protect her all the time.

Of course, there is a more obvious reason, which is that he doesn't want Qin Shu to take advantage of the opportunity.

I don't know what that guy ate, but he grew so fast. When Chang'an saw him again, he was much taller than him. In the past six months, the two of them belonged to different military camps and had few opportunities to meet, but every time they met, each other had changed a lot.

The brat who once let him beat him because of lack of physical strength or because of his status did not put up any resistance, was now more than a head taller than him and began to suppress him in terms of force. Several competitions ended in his defeat.

He has disliked Qin Shu since he was a child.

Now that I can’t beat him or scold him away, I like him even less.

Xiao Jinan was riding on his horse, thinking about a lot of things in his mind: the North, the Xiongnu, the Western Regions, food, military training...

He has too much to do.

But as calm and gentle voices sounded one after another, he immediately made a decision.

Other plans require long-term planning, but beating someone up does not require that. Just beat them and that’s it!

Ignoring the exclamations of his followers, he jumped off his horse, drew his sword and stabbed the young man in white who was slowly walking towards him.

"Your Highness, Prince Qin, what are you doing?"

Qin Shu dodged as he spoke. Such sudden attacks had happened too many times, and he was already familiar with how to deal with them. But this time, Xiao Jinan took an unconventional approach and changed his tactics. Qin Shu was not careful and was stabbed in the arm.

Blood instantly gushed out, staining his clothes red.

Seeing this, their close followers immediately stepped forward, one grabbed Xiao Jinan, and the other stood in front of Qin Shu.

The guards at the Princess's Mansion not far away discovered something unusual and sent a team of guards over. After seeing what happened, one of them quickly returned to the mansion to report the news.

Xiao Jinan was still in a daze. He clearly didn't use much force, so how did he get stabbed?

He looked at Qin Shu with a critical and somewhat suspicious expression, "You could have avoided it, why didn't you? You didn't want to hurt yourself on purpose and tell on me in front of Yan'er, did you?"

Qin Shu looked innocent, "Your Highness, I can dodge, but I didn't expect you to change your tactics at the last minute."

It would have been fine if he hadn't said this, but once he did, Xiao Jinan's face changed. He looked at Qin Shu angrily, "What do you mean? Are you saying that I always use fixed moves to deal with you, so your so-called defense and counter-movement are just a show to fool me?"

Qin Shu thought to himself that this was not good, and quickly said, "Your Highness overestimates me. I really can't handle your moves, so I specially memorized your usual moves to defend myself. Otherwise, I would have been riddled with holes."

After hearing this, Xiao Jinan's anger subsided a little, but he thought Qin Shu was scheming and did not really believe Qin Shu's explanation.

He said, "It was wrong of me to hurt you when you were not prepared. I apologize to you. Next time we get to the military camp, we will have a formal duel."

Qin Shu followed suit and said, "I will listen to your Highness."

Xiao Jinan was not satisfied. "Don't fool me with this attitude. I want you to treat me as your opponent, as your brother, not as the prince of Qin, or the eldest princess's brother. I don't need you to give in to me."

Qin Shu pondered for a moment, then smiled at Xiao Jinan and said, "It's a deal." After the two of them had made the agreement, Jinyan came out of the house, followed by a panting white-haired old man.

"what happened?"

Jin Yan asked.

Just as Qin Shu was about to speak, he heard Jin Yan say to Xiao Jin An, "Brother, you speak."

Qin Shu was helpless and could not help.

Xiao Jinan explained the whole process, and then admitted his mistake in a familiar way, "I was wrong today. Next time, I won't be so impulsive, and I won't attack by surprise. We will compete openly."

Jin Yan glared at him, "Still competing?"

Xiao Jinan said confidently, "Compete!"

Qin Shu also said: "Compare."

Jin Yan looked at one and then at the other, and seeing the two of them smiling at each other, with a hint of mutual sympathy, he said no more.

Gongsun Chou, who had been ignored for a long time, couldn't help but ask: "Who is injured? Do you want to get treatment? If not, just wait to die. I, an old man, still have to go back to write a medical book!"

Xiao Jinan pointed at Qin Shu and said, "Show him."

Gongsun Chou had already seen Qin Shu's arm, and only now went up to check the situation. Soon he snorted coldly, "No need to treat it, it's hopeless!"

Xiao Jinan: "..."

Is he that cruel?

Qin Shu: “…”

What does Doctor Gongsun mean?
Gongsun Chou came in breathlessly, thinking that he was injured somewhere. Now that he saw the wound, he couldn't help but mock Qin Shu, "General Qin's hand is quite strong."

The wound wasn't very big, but the area around it had turned blue and purple from being squeezed. The fact that so much blood was squeezed out showed how cruelly he had hit himself.

Qin Shu's face froze.

Xiao Jinan came to his senses and suddenly rushed forward, pulling up Qin Shu's sleeve to check. When he saw the wound that had stopped bleeding, he was so angry that he cursed, "Qin, do you still have any shame? I know you have always been scheming, but I didn't expect you to be so shameless that you made such a small wound bleed so much. You don't think I don't know that you..."

He suddenly paused, glanced at Jin Yan, and continued to curse: "One competition is not enough, three times, ten times! I will beat you to death!"

Before Qin Shu could explain, Xiao Jinan said to Jinyan, "Yan'er, don't worry about him. He caused all the blood himself. I didn't hurt him badly. It was just a small wound. If Gongsun Chou had come later, it would have scabbed over."

Jin Yan said nothing, but just glanced at Qin Shu.

That look was meaningful, with silence, helplessness, a chuckle, and some indescribable emotion.

General Qin is getting more and more handsome.

A lot of thoughts.

But this brain, I don’t know where it got lost, and it’s gone forever.

Update is coming, praise me
