Young man, please stay

Chapter 320: Beili War
Around late night.

"Violet..."

"..."

"Jin'er?"

"explain."

Qin Lang, who was squatting at the corner of the bed, loosened the quilt that was clutched in front of his chest and cautiously probed Gu Jin, who was sitting at the table:
"That was really... the last time, right?"

"Ah."

Gu Jin, who was already cold and aloof, seemed even more indifferent at this moment.

It was as if a cold-blooded "bully girl" had finally had enough of playing with the innocent man, and then left him aside without caring about him.

In fact, Miss Jin really refreshed Qin Lang's understanding of her once again with her practical actions.

Speaking of which, Gu Jin is obviously the most immature one among the women Qin Lang has had in-depth communication with so far, but it is not known whether it is her unwillingness and stubbornness that drives her, but tonight, on this night which is obviously her first night, Qin Lang is actually made a little... nervous by her.

You know, at midnight, Qin Lang didn't even tremble when faced with the two juicy peaches of the Su sisters.

The "Three Kingdoms War" that night before also failed to defeat Qin Lang.

But today, after only seven rounds, Qin Lang had to surrender!
If he doesn't surrender, Qin Lang may not be able to get out of bed tomorrow.

And what about Gu Jin?

Although she melted into a ball like other women during the battle, as if she was made of water like other women, after the battle, Gu Jin was able to get out of bed calmly and normally.

She even sat down at the table and began to calmly use a handkerchief to wipe away the mysterious water stains that she and her boyfriend had accidentally splashed on a certain princess's face and hair.

"Hey, Jin'er..."

After Gu Jin wiped it for a while, Qin Lang crawled to the bed and patted the edge of the bed:
"come over."

"..."

The girl looked at her boyfriend's silly smile, blushed, glared at him, and then sat over.

"hey-hey."

Qin Lang smiled and just as he raised his hand to hug Jin'er in his arms, he heard a slightly gentle hum.

"?"

"You... don't touch me, otherwise..."

Gu Jin was a little embarrassed, and blinked innocently, and closed her legs:

"...or else...I kind of want to..."

"Oh oh! Don't touch, don't touch!"

Qin Lang quickly let go. He had never expected that even with Zhuo Beibei there first, Miss Jin was actually the one who could be exploited the most.

Both sharp and lasting.

Anyway, Qin Lang should be prepared in advance next time.

"Jin'er, have you been very busy these days?"

"No, just average."

"Tsk tsk, nonsense, I feel like you have lost weight, come and see..."

"..."

"Oh, yes! No touching, no touching!"

……

Qin Lang controlled his temper and for a long time refused to let Miss Jin "start". He just sat down beside Su Yinping's bed and started chatting with her.

The main content is Gu Jin's official business matters in the past few days.

"Can you tell me?"

"Well...it's not a big deal..."

You don’t know until you ask. When Qin Lang asked, he was really surprised.

“Scalping…scalping?”

"Ah."

"Reselling... stockings?"

"Ah."

"..."

This is crazy...

Qin Lang was not shocked by the incident itself, but he did not expect it to happen so quickly and so early. After the Dragon Boat Festival, stockings were very popular among the noble ladies in the capital, and then the news leaked out. In the next few days, the carriages that secretly delivered goods from Biluo Valley to the capital were hijacked, and the corresponding goods quickly became popular in the black market in the capital, and some ordinary ladies with a little financial resources also rushed to buy them.

For this reason, Gu Jin, under the order of the empress, dealt with several gangs of robbers and resellers near the outskirts of Beijing. Now it is said that the Biluo Valley is not taking it lightly and has sent disciples from the valley to escort the carriages. Royal emblems have also been posted on the carriages. It seems that no one will dare to do such a thing for some time.

"Oh, I should have done this a long time ago."

"Because the stockings shipment was confidential, we kept it low-key and kept the staff small."

"Tsk, anyway, my Jin'er has to run around and it's really hard for her."

Qin Lang touched Miss Jin's smooth little face with pity, and whispered in a rebukeing tone:

"Well... in the final analysis, it's still Yupan's fault. He made a mistake and neglected this matter, so you, Jin'er, have to suffer."

"Eh?"

Jin'er took Qin Lang's words seriously:

"This has nothing to do with your majesty..."

"Of course it matters. If she makes a mistake, she must be punished. Jin'er, next time we can punish her together and spank her together, okay?"

"..."

Gu Jin then recognized the meaning of her boyfriend's words. Not only did she glare at Qin Lang, she also raised her hand and pinched Qin Xiaolang. Qin Lang immediately grimaced and dared not to be naughty anymore.

"If you don't want to fight, then don't fight. After all, Jin'er, you are not a traitor. I will fight myself some other day."

"hehe."

Gu Jin sneered:

"I advise you not to disturb His Majesty during this period of time."

"why?"

"..."

Gu Jin hesitated for a moment, his eyes showing a hint of worry:

"I also heard that there seemed to be some movement in Beili."

"Beili?"

Qin Lang hadn't heard this name for a long time, and immediately frowned:

"Is there chaos in the North?"

"That's what's being spread in the palace. It shouldn't be groundless, otherwise Ben Lei wouldn't have rushed to the northern border..."

"what?!"

Qin Lang was stunned, and felt his head buzzing. He sat up from the bed:
"Hong...Benlei...went to the North?"

"Yes."

Gu Jin tilted his head:

"Aren't you... quite familiar with each other? Didn't she tell you?"

"..."

Under normal circumstances, Gu Jin might have started to feel jealous of Zhu Hongling at this time, but she did not expect Zhu Hongling to leave Qin Lang without saying goodbye, and Qin Lang's serious reaction also made Gu Jin feel that now was not the time to be jealous.

"No wonder..."

Qin Lang paced back and forth for a few times, muttering in a trance:
"…No wonder she didn't come to hear the last bit of the story…"

She is the daughter of General Zhu Yueshan, the King of Zhenbei. If there was no serious trouble in the northern border, it would be impossible for Zhu Hongling, a daughter whose status was quite like that of a hostage, to rush to the northern border from the capital so easily.

And according to Gu Jin, if Zhu Hongling wants to return to the northern border, the decision in the capital city cannot be made by the empress alone.

Zhu Yueshan was a great pillar of two dynasties. Many of his involvements with the court went back to the period of the previous emperor. So some things could not be decided by just Su Yupan's words. For example, if Zhu Hongling wanted to go to the northern border, it must be approved by Su Yupan and Regent Bai Qingqing, that is, both the new emperor faction and the regent faction.

This also indirectly proves that something must have really happened in the North.

And nine times out of ten, it is a military issue.

Regarding this matter, Qin Lang entered the palace to meet the empress for the first time as a subject the next day.

After a while of pretending in front of outsiders, the "king and his minister" entered the Taihua Palace together soon. And as expected, after Qin Lang's various manipulations, the empress, whose dragon robe was loose, unhappily showed a piece of brocade handkerchief to Qin Lang.

"what is this?"

"News from Mangzhou in the northern border."

There are four words on the brocade handkerchief: [A sudden rise of a new force]

The different character was written in particularly large size.
