The Prodigal Son

Qin Yu drew a picture of a large, round cake.

Faced with the lucrative offer from Qin Yu, everyone was stunned for a moment, then suddenly became as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

Yes!

Surely all 30,000 border troops under Shen Jue's command wouldn't be willing to betray the country wholeheartedly?

If their plan succeeds, the enemy will be thrown into chaos!

At that time, the enemy forces will inevitably split up!

The Nuoli tribe didn't have many soldiers to begin with. If they could wipe out that 30,000-strong army, it would be an easy task to invade the Nuoli tribe!

The achievement of expanding territory!

These six simple words have a fatal attraction for everyone.

"Lord Qin is truly talented; I admire him greatly!"

"Since Your Majesty ascended the throne, our dynasty has never expanded its territory! If we can expand the territory for the court this time, we will surely be remembered in history!"

"We are willing to follow Lord Qin's lead without question!"

"Yes, yes..."

The crowd was incredibly excited, as if they could see the glory of conquering new territories beckoning to them.

Even Lü Si, for the first time ever, didn't laugh at Qin Yu's wild idea; his eyes were burning with fervor.

Looking at this group of people brimming with enthusiasm, Qin Yu couldn't help but be taken aback.

I rely on!

They just draw a big picture and then flaunt it endlessly?

He suddenly felt a little regretful.

Damn it, you've gone too far!

I'm just talking theory without any real knowledge!

If the promises he made don't come true, he doesn't know if these people will chop him up.

"That's a story for later; let's not talk about that now."

Qin Yu then looked at Meng Zhangping and said, "Now that the plan is finalized, you should quickly write a report for His Majesty!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Wan's heart skipped a beat.

This cannot be written by Meng Zhangping.

Others might not know what kind of situation Qin Yu, the Holy Envoy, was, but how could she not know?

He's a complete imposter, this holy envoy!

Meng Zhangping was unaware of this; what if he revealed it...?

However, she swallowed the words back down her throat.

Why are you worrying about this for no reason?

So many people know that Qin Yu is the "Holy Envoy," how could this possibly be kept secret?

Qin Yu only impersonated the imperial envoy in order to stabilize the situation in Xining Prefecture at the lowest possible cost. Now that he has a plan to defeat the enemy, how could His Majesty possibly blame him!

"I?"

Meng Zhangping was somewhat flattered. "Lord Qin, why don't you write it yourself?"

"You just write it!"

Qin Yu waved his hand, "Just explain the situation to His Majesty. In the report, simply say that we have a plan to defeat the enemy. Don't be foolish and reveal everything! If the report is intercepted again, you know the consequences!"

"well!"

Meng Zhangping nodded repeatedly.

There have been precedents for this, and we definitely need to be wary of it.

"Also, don't report anything you're unsure about!"

Qin Yu deliberately reminded him again.

What if this guy gets carried away and reports all his grand promises to the authorities, and those promises don't come true, leaving the female demon disappointed? Who knows if she'll go crazy then.

"good!"

Meng Zhangping agreed with a smile.

"I'll send one of my top seven experts to report this!"

Suppressing his excitement, Lü Siqiang took the initiative to accept the task.

Qin Yu glanced at him in surprise, but then nodded slightly.

With a seventh-realm expert delivering the report, there shouldn't be any problems.

Unexpectedly!

At the crucial moment, Lü Si's awareness was quite high!

Afterwards, everyone had a brief discussion and settled the follow-up matters before they dispersed.

It was getting late, and they were tired from their long journey, so they needed to take a rest.

Just as Qin Yu was about to go back to his room to rest, Xu Wan caught up with him.

"Qin Yu!"

Xu Wan called out to Qin Yu.

"Commander Xu, what brings you here?"

Qin Yu turned around, looking completely bewildered.

What?

Are you captivated by your own brilliance and prowess?

Has she changed her previous dislike and now wants to warm my bed?

Even if I agree, I still have to ask the iron tower next to me first!

Damn it!

It's better not to bring this up, it just makes me angry!

For the past two days, he has been experiencing persistent lower abdominal pain, and even his back has started to feel uncomfortable.

It's just like my period coming on!

"Don't call me Military Envoy Xu!"

Xu Wan was slightly annoyed. "When you call me that now, I feel like you're mocking and ridiculing me!"

"I swear to God, I absolutely did not mean that!"

Qin Yu looked innocent. "If I don't call you Military Envoy Xu, what should I call you? Little Xu? Wanwan? Miss Xu?"

"Just call me by my name!"

Xu Wan bit her lip and glared at him. "Tell me honestly, what did you mean when you came up to me and yelled at me before?"

Got it!

They're starting to dredge up old grievances!

This has absolutely nothing to do with me!

It's all the fault of that guy from before!

That man is now just a lecherous remnant of his soul, and you're still clinging to this matter!

Yes, that's right!

My lustful nature is due to the lingering spirit of that man; it has nothing to do with me!

"this……"

Qin Yu stopped his wild thoughts and said seriously, "Just think of it as me being bewitched by Luo Qingyuan, that's why..."

"You didn't know Luo Qingyuan back then!"

Xu Wan interrupted him.

"Yeah?"

Qin Yu feigned madness.

"Thirteenth Young Master, have you forgotten? Last April, you ran up to Miss Luo and started yelling at her. She and Xu Kui chased you for several blocks, and I had to carry you for quite a distance."

Qi Dachui tried to help Qin Yu regain his memory, "You met Luo Qingyuan at the Luo family's silk shop in the south of the city last September..."

"..."

Qin Yu looked at Qi Dachui with a dark expression.

no……

Brother!

Why don't you write a diary?

Time, place, people, event...

You've covered all the key elements!

You call yourself my confidant? How dare you undermine me like this?

Qin Yu mentally cursed Qi Dachui, that idiot, then smiled at Xu Wanqian: "Actually, I really have no problem with you two siblings! If you want to blame someone, blame the old man. He's always comparing me to you two, calling me stinking dog shit. If you were in his shoes, wouldn't you feel resentful?"

"Won't!"

Xu Wan shook her head: "I will only take this as encouragement, and work harder as a result."

"I……"

Qin Yu was both amused and exasperated, and helplessly patted his forehead.

We're on completely different wavelengths!

He didn't know whether it was him who was abnormal or Xu Wan who was abnormal.

Helpless, Qin Yu said seriously, "It was wrong of me to insult you. I sincerely apologize to you today, okay?"

"I don't need your apology."

Xu Wan shook her head. "I just want to know, what exactly do you mean?"

"No...didn't I explain myself clearly enough?"

Qin Yu was completely exasperated. "If you really can't swallow this, then go ahead and yell back, okay?"

Is this all there is to this?

"Why would I want to insult you?"

Xu Wan stomped her foot angrily and gritted her teeth, saying, "I just want to ask you, do you look down on me, do you think I'm not good enough for you, so that's why..."

"Stop!"

Qin Yu quickly stopped her, "I never had that thought!"

"real?"

Xu Wan's eyes flickered as she stared quietly into his eyes, seemingly somewhat disbelieving.

"Of course it's true!"

Qin Yu was speechless, yawning as he said, "Big sister, I'm really sleepy right now. Can we stop dwelling on this old, trivial matter?"

"Okay! Then you should get some rest!"

Seeing that he was getting impatient, Xu Wan stopped pestering him and turned to leave.

However, after taking only a few steps, Xu Wan suddenly turned back: "Qin Yu, do you remember this?"

As she spoke, Xu Wan beckoned to him with her finger.

"What do you mean?"

Qin Yu, confused, asked with a mischievous grin, "What, are you asking me to sleep with you?"

"Get lost!"

Xu Wan cursed angrily and made a move to hit him.

Qin Yu chuckled and immediately made his escape.

Seeing Qin Yu dart away faster than a rabbit, Xu Wan angrily lowered her hand.

As she turned her head, a bitter smile flashed across her face.

He really didn't remember...
