The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented

Jiang Ping was in a very sorry state in the mud, which made Qin Shuyao feel extremely distressed. She immediately tried to help Jiang Ping up.

Just like back then, she was willing to do anything for Jiang Ping.

She would use Wu Xingzhou as a practice target for Jiang Ping's sake.

However, just as she reached out her hand, a feeling of disgust inexplicably jumped out of her heart. The feeling came without warning, leaving Qin Shuyao completely astonished.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly, pausing only for a moment before continuing what she had been doing, helping Jiang Ping up and asking with concern, "Brother Jiang Ping, are you... are you alright?"

"It's alright, it's alright!" Jiang Ping said with feigned composure. "I've been busy commanding from inside the tent for a long time, and I've become less skilled at riding horses. In addition, I rode such a wild and untamed warhorse in order to see you, Sister Shuyao, as soon as possible. So I lost my composure in front of you, Sister Shuyao."

"Sister Shuyao, please don't blame me!"

Qin Shuyao immediately shook her head and said, "How could that be?"

"I'm too worried about my brother to blame him."

Jiang Ping felt a surge of pride: "Sister Shuyao, it's been so many years, but you still care about me the most."

As he spoke, Jiang Ping reached out to take Qin Shuyao's hand.

My heart was also filled with passion.

After many years, Qin Shuyao has become even more beautiful.

With her slender waist and graceful figure, her eyes sparkled with charm, and she exuded an alluring and captivating aura that instantly mesmerized Jiang Ping.

I can't even imagine how amazing tonight will be!

Can,

He did extend his hand, but Qin Shuyao almost instinctively pulled it back, leaving Jiang Ping empty-handed.

Jiang Ping was taken aback: "Sister Shu Yao..."

Qin Shuyao was also taken aback.

Because she didn't know why she had acted this way, but felt a little uncomfortable, her instinctive reaction was to quickly smile and say, "Brother Jiang Ping, you've just arrived in Pingling Village, why don't you wash up and change your clothes first? I'll treat you to a welcome dinner at the restaurant!"

"Alright!" Jiang Ping was slightly disappointed. After all, Qin Shuyao in front of him was too tempting, like a ripe peach, making him feel that his second brother was unparalleled.

So, Jiang Ping returned to Pinglingji as quickly as possible, quickly cleaned himself off the mud, and rushed to the restaurant that Qin Shuyao had booked. Inside the private room, there was only space for the two of them. Qin Shuyao exuded an intoxicating fragrance, which made people even more eager to meet her.

The sunlight outside was dim, and a patch of not-so-bright light fell on her face, making her even more beautiful and alluring, which made Jiang Ping even more unable to control himself.

"Brother Jiang Ping, why are you staring at her like that?"

"Eat quickly, eat quickly. This is the biggest restaurant in Pingling Town. All these dishes are local specialties of Pingling Town. Brother Jiang Ping, although you are well-traveled, I'm afraid you have never tasted these flavors before."

"Alright, alright, let's eat..." Jiang Ping sat down, forcing himself to calm down, and for the first time complained that the day was passing too slowly.

However, he also knew that after a long separation, he needed to deepen his relationship with Qin Shuyao and, more importantly, for her to regain the respect and even awe she had shown him in previous years.

So, during the meal, he kept bragging to himself.

"It was only after the imperial court sent me out this time that I realized how powerful Yun Jing is. The Palace Master of the Tongxin Alliance is truly extraordinary. However, this time, not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can get a spot. You have to have real talent and skills. That's why the Yun Jing imperial court found me!"

"I've always been too lazy to practice martial arts. Those are things only roughnecks learn. It's foolish to just hone your strength every day. To be a true general, you need brains. Take me, for example. My superiors all praise me for my strategic planning and ability to win battles from afar!"

……

Qin Shuyao listened attentively, her face full of smiles.

But only she knew that after listening for a while, she felt a little bored. In the past, Jiang Ping was a radiant and unattainable figure in her mind, but now... although he was still radiant, she always felt that he was a little dimmer than before.

This required Qin Shuyao to constantly prepare herself mentally.

"Brother Jiang Ping is my obsession. For Brother Jiang Ping, I've spent so long transforming myself into a perfect woman. How can I not have the same emotional impulses towards Brother Jiang Ping as before?"

"It must be because we haven't seen each other for too long."

"Given time, I'm sure I'll rediscover that feeling."

Qin Shuyao convinced herself, her smile widening, making the meal a truly enjoyable experience for both parties.

Neither of them probably cared about the taste of the food.

But the person sitting across from you, the one you want to be with, is more meaningful and unforgettable than the meal itself!

As a result, it took a full hour for the two of them to emerge from the restaurant.

Jiang Ping sensed the opportune moment and pressed his advantage, asking, "Sister Shuyao, where are you going next?"

"Brother Jiang Ping, I plan to go home first."

"Then I wonder if I would have the honor of accompanying you to visit your home?" Jiang Ping seized the opportunity and immediately asked, unaware that he was extremely nervous as he said this.

Moreover, it wasn't a feeling of anxiety or fear.

It's a kind of adrenaline rush of tension.

This was the first time he had felt such tension in front of Qin Shuyao since he first met her.

Can,

Qin Shuyao said with a charming smile, "Brother Jiang Ping, you've just arrived and have been appointed as the garrison commander of Pinglingji. Right now, you should go and check on the situation in Pinglingji first."

"I heard that Ren Tianye's army is coming."

"You have to defend Pinglingji so well that we can live freely here in the future."

Jiang Ping's face instantly darkened.

However, he was not discouraged and said, "Sister Shuyao, you are right. We have a long future ahead of us. Right now, we do need to protect Pinglingji first. But don't worry."

"With my abilities, I can easily protect Pinglingji!"

"Once I've taken care of Pinglingji's defenses today, I'll come find you tonight!"

"I'm coming to find you!" Jiang Ping emphasized those four words, and Qin Shuyao immediately understood their meaning. She felt inexplicably irritated, but she had no reason to object.

In fact, this was exactly what she had hoped for.

She wanted to present herself in the best possible light so that Jiang Ping would feel her difference!

So, suppressing her other emotions with reason, she gave a charming smile and said, "Alright, Brother Jiang Ping, after you've finished cleaning up the defenses of Pinglingji, come find me tonight!"

Jiang Ping was so excited!

He was so excited that he wanted to ride a horse to the military camp, but then he realized that he was not a good rider, so he gave up and had someone carry him in a sedan chair to the military camp.

Just as Jiang Ping was about to announce his superior's order appointing him as the new garrison commander of Pinglingji, he saw a group of people approaching quickly.

The leader was still shouting.

"Where is the garrison commander?"

"Where is the garrison commander?"

"We are from Huai'an City, here to discuss the matter of reinforcements."

"Please grant me an audience, Commander!"
