~6 min read 1,107 words

Let’s talk about the Qin family!

Qin Qin Qin Keqing saw Qin Ye return home with a face full of radiance and knew something good had happened!

Before she could even ask, Qin Ye in the main hall said with a self-satisfied look: "Your good fiancé has performed another meritorious service; he is now a Third-Class Viscount and a Third-Rank Assistant Regional Commander!"

Qin Qin Qin Keqing was instantly left at a loss by this huge, pleasant surprise!

Qin Zhong, not knowing where he had gotten the news, ran home in a fiery, excited rush: "Sister, you don't know, Brother-in-law has been promoted and ennobled again! He is now a Third-Class Viscount and a Third-Rank Assistant Regional Commander!"

"Ah, Father, you're back too!"

This time, he didn't even add the "future" to "brother-in-law"!

He called him brother-in-law directly!

This made Qin Qin Qin Keqing’s beautiful, jade-Love Love Like face flush with shy joy; her cherry lips parted slightly, her bright phoenix eyes curved into crescents, and her smile was as charming as spring flowers. Her soft, melodious voice carried a hint of playfulness: "Didn't you used to be unwilling to even call him 'future brother-in-law'?"

"Sister, don't tease me. From now on, he is my only brother-in-law; I only recognize him!"

Qin Zhong, also blushing with embarrassment, shouted back excitedly.

Qin Ye nodded with a smile: "Yes, my superior told me about this. In the past, he never gave me a pleasant look and spoke coldly, but just now, he treated me with great courtesy and concern."

Speaking of this.

Qin Ye’s expression was filled with emotion, and he finally looked at Qin Qin Qin Keqing: "This is all thanks to my worthy son-in-law!"

There!

He had also started calling him "worthy son-in-law" directly!

Qin Qin Qin Keqing became even more bashful, a rosy glow spreading across her peach-blossom cheeks.

Qin Ye laughed heartily: "I will write a letter to my worthy son-in-law immediately, telling him to return to the capital early so we can set an auspicious date for the wedding!"

Qin Qin Qin Keqing was deeply embarrassed!

Although her heart was filled with shy joy, she still parted her red lips and said: "Ke'er will listen to Father!"

The capital was buzzing with discussion, causing Jia Zhen and his son to curse, the Rongguo Prefecture to be shocked, and Qin Qin Qin Keqing to wait with shy anticipation, all while the civil and military officials and commoners constantly mentioned the name of the divine general Jia Hui, who had displayed such great might.

Yet, at this moment, he was on a bloody and terrifying battlefield!

His expression was filled with sorrow!

[30] Triumphant Return! A Hero’s Welcome by the Whole City! (3)

Background!

Outside the Diku Pass!

On a wilderness a full day's ride from Dingyuan Town.

Everywhere the eye could see, there were scattered, abandoned supplies, banners, and weapons.

And countless decapitated corpses!

Jia Hui.

Along with 50 Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry!

And the heavily wounded, unconscious Gong Gong Gong Minxue.

Were all on this battlefield together!

Jia Hui, paused atop his Red Hare horse, his exquisite armor draped in a golden cloak by the light of the setting sun!

On his beast-faced, swallow-headed chain armor, a deep, purplish-red bloodstain shimmered; the interweaving of gold and red made Jia Hui look even more Love Love Like a god of war among men!

Wearing a three-pronged, hair-bound purple-gold crown, with a bow and arrows at his side, holding a painted halberd, and sitting atop the wind-hissing Red Hare!

Among men, Jia Hui; among horses, Red Hare!

The Great Great Great Qian God of War is none other than this!

"God of War!"

"God of War!"

"God of War!"

The dozens of Night Scouts nearby!

And the hundreds of cavalrymen sent from Dingyuan Town who hadn't arrived in time were all looking at Jia Hui with fanatical, worshipful, and incredibly excited expressions, unable to stop themselves from shouting aloud!

Ordinary people could hardly imagine how towering and powerful the image of Jia Hui had become in their minds!

Jia Hui was already Love Love Like a god of war!

Strong!

Too strong!

Yet, Jia Hui looked with some sorrow at his fallen Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry subordinates!

Over the past half-month.

He had summoned all 110 Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry!

Nearly half had died in battle!

A full 60 Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry had fallen on the battlefield!

Gong Gong Gong Minxue was also heavily wounded and unconscious, his life hanging in the balance.

It could be said to be quite tragic.

As their commander, Jia Hui naturally could not help but feel sorrowful.

After all, they were his own comrades-in-arms!

However, if it were to happen again.

Jia Hui would still choose this path!

A general's success is built upon ten thousand bones!

He had long been prepared for this!

It was just that sorrow was inevitable.

He took a deep breath.

Adjusting his emotions, Jia Hui said in a deep voice: "Immediately take the heavily wounded Gong Gong Gong Minxue back for medical treatment nearby."

Do one's best and leave the rest to fate.

It depends on Gong Gong Gong Minxue's own life.

In fact, being able to live until now already counts as Gong Gong Gong Minxue having great luck!

And if he can survive.

Jia Hui believes that he would be enough to become a towering, brave, and elite soldier!

Comparable to the battle-hardened Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry under his command!

"Yes! General!"

Several soldiers immediately took the order to escort Gong Gong Gong Minxue back first.

Jia Hui then calmly said: "Clean up the battlefield immediately, and send the heads and the grain and supplies back!"

"Remember, the heroic soldiers under my command who died for the country must be given priority to be sent back for proper burial!"

"Yes! General!"

"..."

The Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry present and other soldiers not directly under his command all took orders and acted!

By now, Jia Hui had already received news of his appointment as a Mobile Corps Commander and his noble title!

So calling him General was not wrong.

This made Jia Hui understand the meaning of "a general's success is built upon ten thousand bones" even more!

His gaze was deep!

This was actually not the main battlefield!

Nurha's head had already been sent back to Diku City.

And then sent to the capital.

For the past few days, he had been busy chasing down the remaining defeated troops and deserters!

Only now had it finally ended!

During this time, he also encountered a scout team from another army.

They were completely wiped out by Jia Hui.
