Falling in Love Online with an Ancient General

At least for her, they were not useful at all, and even made her feel that he was abnormal.

Perhaps he could take a look at some folk storybooks and see if there was anything worth learning from them.

[Qingyi: Let\'s just chat like we used to.]

[Qingyi: I have my midterm exams in two weeks, and this semester has gone by so fast.]

[Qingyi: I need to study hard for them, and I hope I can do well.]

Her side quest was not yet complete, so she needed to make an effort.

[Yuechuan: You definitely will.]

Qin Yuchuan was not worried about Feng Qingyi\'s grades, although she had not told him about her academic situation.

But through his daily observations, he knew that she had plans for herself.

And she was extremely focused on what she did, so he had confidence in her.

While Feng Qingyi was busy with her midterm exams, Qin Yuchuan had almost finished investigating the matter of Qiu Tongfu.

Qin Yuchuan found an opportunity to meet with Xuanyuan Sheng.

Xuanyuan Sheng was greatly enraged when he saw the evidence presented by Qin Yuchuan.

He had not expected that the Chancellor he had relied on was actually a spy sent by the Southern Region.

Moreover, his influence had already taken root in the court, and it was impossible to eliminate it entirely at once.

Two senior ministers of the dynasty, important officials of the nation, were actually sent by another country. Not only him, but even his imperial father had not noticed.

This was hidden too deeply, and the court had to be purged.

"I don\'t know what Yuchuan thinks I should do?"

Qin Yuchuan pondered for a moment, "I\'m sure Your Majesty has already made your own considerations. As a mere general, I will simply follow Your Majesty\'s orders."

Xuanyuan Sheng: "I order you to immediately arrest Qiu Tongfu and present the evidence of his crimes to the public."

"I obey Your Majesty\'s command." As Qin Yuchuan walked to the gate of Yangxin Hall, he turned to look at Xuanyuan Sheng, "I hope Your Majesty will not be entranced by beauty."

Xuanyuan Sheng, who was already furious, threw his tea cup to the ground upon hearing Qin Yuchuan\'s last words.

"Qi Tan, what did he mean by that? Is he implying that I am negligent and misleading the country?"

Qi Tan stood trembling, "General Qin might have intended something."

"Are you saying it\'s about Yian\'er? He has no right to interfere in my family matters."

"Your Majesty is right," Qi Tan agreed.

This General Qin did not seem to understand the situation. His Majesty favored Imperial Noble Yan and wanted to make her the Empress.

For this, he ignored the opposition of the court officials and gave her the status of being the adopted daughter of a high-ranking official. Now, they were just waiting for her to give birth to a son.

Qin Yuchuan led his troops to surround the Chancellor\'s Residence, causing a stir in the entire Shengjing.

Qiu Tongfu had an excellent reputation and had even pleaded for the people before, so he was greatly loved by the citizens.

This time, a large crowd gathered, shouting for the officials to release him.

But Qin Yuchuan did not care about such things and directly ordered the Chancellor\'s Residence to be searched, arresting the entire family and throwing them into prison.

"I don\'t know what General Qin intends by this?" Qiu Tongfu, nearing fifty years old and vigorous in spirit, remained calm despite being imprisoned.

Qin Yuchuan: "It is meaningless for Chancellor Qiu to ask such things. I am merely following orders."

"Whose orders is General Qin following?" Qiu Tongfu asked.

Qin Yuchuan ignored him and left the cell.

He was only responsible for making the arrest. As for interrogation, Xuanyuan Sheng would not trust him with that.

He had no reason to join in the commotion. The evidence was conclusive, and Qiu Tongfu had no way to argue.

However, how Xuanyuan Sheng would deal with him was still unknown. But Qin Yuchuan did not need to worry about it.

If Xuanyuan Sheng wanted to secure his position, he would certainly not let a spy from another country off easily.

It was just the woman in the palace - Qin Yuchuan was not sure if she would listen to his advice or not.

He had done what he could, and he sought to have no regrets.

When Qin Yuchuan returned home, he happened to meet Na Muqi, who was about to leave.

"Has Na come today to report anything?"

Na Muqi lowered his voice, "General, the people sent by the Southern Region are very cautious, and they are scattered in different places."

"Some are hiding in Zhuji Alley, some in Lin Huan, and some have not been found yet. I think the best approach for now is to start with Qiu Tongfu."

Qin Yuchuan: "Based on your understanding of him, do you think he will talk?"

Na Muqi shared his views, "I am not familiar with those scholars, and I don\'t have much interaction with Qiu Tongfu either."

"But he has been a powerful official for so long, so he must not be a simple person. It will not be easy to make him talk, I believe."

Qin Yuchuan agreed with Na Muqi\'s thoughts. Since Qiu Tongfu had managed to hide in Tianqi for over thirty years, he was certainly not to be underestimated.

It was unrealistic to expect to learn the hiding places of the remaining Southern Region people from him.

"Then let\'s have people deal with those we have found first, and continue investigating the rest."

"I understand, but I don\'t know how the General found out about Qiu Tongfu\'s connection with the Southern Region people?"

Na Muqi felt that it should not be so easy to discover Qiu Tongfu, who had hidden in Tianqi for more than thirty years.

He had a great reputation in Shengjing and was well-loved by the people. He also had a kind and benevolent appearance.

Ordinary people would never have guessed his true identity. For Qin Yuchuan to accurately discover him, there must certainly be some things that Na Muqi was not aware of.

"I went to Prince Xian\'s Residence," Qin Yuchuan also knew what Na Muqi was thinking, and he himself was also puzzled.

Why did Xuanyuan Yan know about Qiu Tongfu\'s connection with the Southern Region, and what role did he play in this?

Na Muqi: "Prince Xian, isn\'t he blind and confined to his residence?"

"I don\'t know either, but at least he won\'t do anything against us." This much he was clear about.

"Regardless, the General should not let his guard down. No matter how close you were in the past, time changes everything."

"No one knows what he is thinking now, and the General should not trust anyone easily."

In Na Muqi\'s mind, Qin Yuchuan\'s life was more important than anything else, and he did not want him to be in any danger.

Qin Yuchuan nodded slightly, "I know."

"As long as the General is discreet, it will be fine. I shall take my leave now." Na Muqi left in a hurry.

After changing his clothes, Qin Yuchuan went to the courtyard of Xuanyuan Xi.

Bai Wei spotted Qin Yuchuan from a distance, "Princess, the General has arrived!"

Xuanyuan Xi hurriedly stood up and walked out of the door. During these days, Qin Yuchuan was often away, and she did not have many opportunities to see him.

"Greetings to my mother!"

Xuanyuan Xi quickly said, "Yuechuan has arrived, please sit down. Bai Wei, serve the tea."

"Mother, I have come today to inquire about some matters with you," Qin Yuechuan said.

Xuanyuan Xi nodded, "Whatever it is, Yuechuan, you may ask directly. If I know about it, I will certainly not conceal it."

"Mother, what do you know about Prince Xian\'s affairs in recent years?" Qin Yuechuan asked.

Xuanyuan Xi fell into thought for a long while before speaking, "In these years, he has been unwilling to see anyone, including me."
