C162 (1/2)

The main general who was left behind wanted to curse Xu Shiqiu, because not only did he exchange for their two generals, he had also drugged their soldiers.

Although he had a lot of things to say, in the end, he didn't say them out loud.

Although he felt that the method Xu Shiqiu used was not good, he understood that on the real battlefield, Xu Shiqiu could do this.

When the victory was achieved, Shangguan and His Majesty would only pay attention to whether or not you had won. They would not ask how you had won.

Furthermore, after the event, Xu Shiqiu had also explained that although the medicine his subordinate had given them would make them weak for six hours, in these six hours, all they needed to do was to drink a bowl of soup with medicinal ingredients, and the hidden injuries on their bodies would be healed by a little or two.

Most importantly, other than the fact that this powder can make a person weak for six hours, there is no other effect.

This point was also proven by the royal physician brought by the Prince Duan.

Furthermore, after the competition ended, they found out that there was still a huge matter waiting to be dealt with.

Not only did the Bearded General and the long-faced military general violate the military rules, they even got involved in a life and death lawsuit in the capital's Flower Tower.

With this matter at the forefront, the Prince Duan did not pay much attention to the schemes that Xu Shiqiu had used in this competition.

After announcing the victory of the soldiers led by Xu Shiqiu, Prince Duan brought the few officials who came along with him and rushed back to the capital. They needed to report the matter of the martial general killing people in the flower pavilion as soon as possible.

If he didn't handle this matter well, it might affect His Majesty's reputation.

After all, their official positions had risen through the ranks of the Saints.

After seeing that Prince Duan had brought his men and left, Xu Shiqiu then ordered the entire army to rest, killing the last batch of pigs, sheep, chickens, ducks, and the entire army to eat. Starting from tomorrow, the three days of holiday could also allow the soldiers of Lu Yuan to go home and visit their families.

Xu Shiqiu will give this order, other than being permitted by the Prince Duan, it will also be the Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, His Majesty will probably send an imperial edict over.

The soldiers in the first batch all performed very well, especially those in Iron Eagle Brigade. After this competition, it was about time they saw blood.

After settling the matters in the camp, Xu Shiqiu packed his things and prepared to return home.

Due to the competition this time around, he had not returned for several days. It was unknown if his family had any major matters to attend to.

The Xu Family had not been a big deal lately. Other than Yuanxi growing older and more sensitive to voices, who was thinking of having someone carry him out to play every day, nothing had really happened.

It's just that there really were some things regarding the Xu Family that were related to marriage.

At the beginning of the month, when Jiang Han went out to check his accounts, due to the Mid-Autumn Festival, he finally returned home on the 14th of August.

According to usual habit, when Jiang Han returned home, his family would always sit together for a meal.

It was just that Xu Yanzhu never thought that this meal would become her mother-in-law's death-urging rice.

The next day was August fifteenth, so the feast at the house on August fourteenth was rather simple. There were only three hosts, and although the food was exquisite, there were only ten dishes.

arranged two dishes that he liked to eat out of the ten dishes. The four dishes that Jiang Han and his mother-in-law ordered were so that the mother and son could finish the meal in peace.

But when the dishes were served, Jiang Han made his trusted aide bring him a plate of steamed crab.

”I brought this back especially for mother to eat. Mother, don't you love eating crabs the most? In order to bring back these crabs, I came back on horseback. ” As Jiang Han said that, he ordered the servant woman to help him remove the crabs.

If he only did that, perhaps Mrs. Jiang was just angered by him and would not have any other problems, but when Mrs. Jiang called Xu Yanzhu to eat the crabs, he actually made a move to stop him.

”Yanzhu's body is not suitable for eating crabs, these crabs were all brought back by me specially for mother, you must eat more.”

Jiang Han's words caused the dining hall to fall into a strange silence.

Xu Yanzhu did not expect that after Jiang Han returned this time, it would be so direct. That crab, there was no need to guess, as it knew there was definitely a problem.

Since Jiang Han stopped him from eating the crab, Xu Yanzhu could not say anything.

After all, she was an outsider's wife, and since Mrs. Jiang didn't treat her very well, she could only remain silent.
