General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming novel Chapter 256

256 Qin Canglan’s Anger (2)

Consort Xian knew her son’s personality. If he really refused to tell her, she would never be able to get anything out of him.

Her son had been different from other princes since he was young. If anything happened, he would never come back to complain to her even if he was bullied.

Consort Xian couldn’t do anything to her son and could only exert strength elsewhere. “How did Jing Yi protect you?”

Xiao Zhonghua smiled gently and said, “Jing Yi has already done his best. If he hadn’t taken the stab for me, I might have died.”

!!

Consort Xian exclaimed, “Then… is he alright?”

Xiao Zhonghua said, “It’s nothing serious.”

Consort Xian’s expression softened a little. She pulled her son’s hand and said earnestly, “When you go out, I’m on tenterhooks every day because I’m afraid that something will happen to you… Tell Mother the truth. Why did you go to Qingzhou?”

Xiao Zhonghua lowered his head and smiled. “Mother, Father sent me.”

Consort Xian snorted. “You were the one who volunteered!”

Xiao Zhonghua sighed helplessly.

“My son… went to look for the Commander’s Seal left behind by Wu Anjun.”

Consort Xian freed one hand and touched her temples. She said thoughtfully, “Did Lord Wu An leave behind a Commander’s seal? Didn’t he hand it to the Imperial Court this morning?”

Xiao Zhonghua said, “It’s not the Imperial Court’s Commander’s Seal. It’s an army that was secretly trained for King Nanyang back then.”

Consort Xian asked strangely, “Wu Anjun still has this trick up his sleeve? What does the Wei family want? Are they rebelling?”

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.

“No, you have to report it to your father quickly!”

Xiao Zhonghua dissuaded, “Mother, I didn’t get the Commander’s Seal and don’t know where that army is. There’s no evidence. If the Wei family bites me back, it will be disadvantageous to me.”

Consort Xian said, “You’re your father’s biological son. Your father will believe you.”

Xiao Zhonghua pondered for a moment and analyzed, “In order to resist Beiyan, the Wei family lost eight generals in battle. Their loyalty can be seen by the world. All the civil and military officials know, and the people of the world know. If Father is suspicious of the Wei family just because of his son’s words, I’m afraid he will be criticized by the censor and the people of Great Zhou.”

Consort Xian sighed slightly. “I didn’t think it through.”

Xiao Zhonghua smiled. “Mother is also doing this for the Great Zhou Empire.”

Consort Xian waved her hand. “Forget it, let’s not talk about this. Since you’re back, prepare for your marriage with Miss Qin. There’s not much time left.”

“She came to the capital?”

Su Xiaoxiao took the clothes she had ordered for her family and paid. She carried the clothes into Su Mo’s carriage.

Xiao Zhonghua’s eyes narrowed. “The Marquis of Zhenbei?”

“Where are we going next?” Su Mo asked Su Xiaoxiao in the carriage.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Go see your grandfather. His dosage should be adjusted.”

…

In the study, Qin Canglan looked at Qin Che with burning eyes. This was the “son” he had raised for twenty years.

He had deceived the world and taken everything that belonged to Su Cheng. He lived a good life with a clear conscience and was even conferred the title of Protector Duke.

“Who are you? Why did you take Hua Yin’s jade pendant and pretend to be my son back then?”

“Father, where did you hear the rumors that I was an imposter? How can I be an imposter? I’m Qin Che! Your biological son!”

Qin Canglan took off the jade pendant from his waist. “This jade pendant… was handed to me by you when you returned to the capital back then. You said that you lost the other piece and only kept this one by your side. No matter how difficult life was, you couldn’t bear to sell it.”
