Today, the Assistant Minister of Ministry of War had paid a visit, and Xiao Jingyue was discussing important matters with him in the study room.

When Qu Ling kicked the door and barged in, he shocked the Ministry of War Vice Minister so much that he almost fainted on the spot.

Xiao Jingyue smacked the table and stood up, "Get out! "Knock on the door!"

Qu Ling did not expect anyone else to be in the study room. He hurriedly retreated in fright and closed the door he kicked open.

Standing at the side of the door, Xiao Er watched Qu Ling charge in without being able to stop him in time, and had a premonition that he was about to catch a cold.

Xiao Jingyue's anger was slightly suppressed, and he asked the Ministry of War Assistant Minister apologetically: "Is Master Li well?"

The assistant minister of Ministry of War stared with wide eyes, and only after a long while did he recover his composure, and shake his head: "It's no problem."

After pausing for a moment, the Assistant Minister of Ministry of War continued, "Please do not blame Madam for her true nature."

Xiao Jingyue knew that the assistant minister of Ministry of War was finding a way out of his predicament, eased his expression, and said in a heavy voice, "Let's call it a day today."

The Assistant Minister of Ministry of War cupped his hands in a salute and followed Xiao Jingyue out of the study.

Xiao Er took the initiative to send out the Ministry of War Assistant Minister, and upon seeing this, Xiao Yi immediately followed.

At the same time, he was sent off by Great General Xiao's two trusted aides, causing him to feel overwhelmed.

Xiao Jingyue watched as the Ministry of War Minister left before walking over with large strides to pick up Qu Ling who was cowering against the wall.

"I didn't do it on purpose!" Qu Ling struggled to take back his collar, and quickly retreated ten steps away from Xiao Jingyue.

The man clasped his hands behind his back and cast a cold glare at her. "You'd better give this general a reasonable explanation for what happened just now."

"I had a dream last night."

"…"

Before Qu Ling lost his temper, Qu Ling hurriedly continued, "I dreamt that you asked for two concubines to force me back to the countryside to farm."

Xiao Jingyue, "..."

Seeing that he did not make a sound, Qu Ling took two more steps back. As he observed Xiao Jingyue's expression, he continued to speak carefully, "Then just now, when I woke up, I discovered that there were two beautiful girls by my side …"

Xiao Jingyue did not think that it would be because of this reason, he was startled, the anger around his body disappeared without a trace, and he smiled meaningfully: "Are you jealous, Madam?"

Jealous? Qu Ling's mind went blank, and then exploded in rage. "You're the one who's jealous, your entire family is jealous! "Young lady, I just don't want to go home and farm!"

General Xiao, who was caught off guard and cursed at his entire family, turned black. He flashed forward, grabbed Qu Ling by the collar, grabbed him back into the study, and threw him onto the chair behind the desk. "You're still missing ninety-seven times the < Female Commandment >.

When Qu Ling heard that he still had to copy the < Female Commandment >, he immediately turned tearful and rushed forward to pull his sleeve, "General, I was wrong, I was wrong! Your excellency, please forgive this one. This one will not dare to do so again! "

Xiao Jingyue pulled back his sleeves expressionlessly, picked up a stool, and walked to the table in front of her. He sat down opposite of her, picked up the booklet left behind by Qu Ling's mother, and started flipping through it while saying, "If you can't copy it three times before lunch, then your lunch today will be gone."

Qu Ling was just about to try and see if he could just copy it once when he saw something out of the corner of his eyes. He bent down and picked up a piece of paper from the ground, then quickly opened it. "It's been a long time since we last met. It's been half a lifetime since we last met …"

Xiao Jingyue's expression changed, he quickly reached out to grab the letter in Qu Ling's hand, and after he crumpled it into a ball, he used his inner force to grind the ball of paper into powder.

Qu Ling looked at him dumbstruck. After a long while, she then spoke out with her tongue hanging wide: "After hearing the news of your marriage, I couldn't sleep at all. I couldn't wait to grow a pair of wings on my back, fly to Zhijing, fly to your bed, hahahaha …"

Xiao Jingyue stared at Qu Ling sinisterly, "If you can't copy it 50 times today, not only will you not have lunch, you don't have to eat dinner anymore!"

"…" Qu Ling could not laugh anymore. With a withered expression, he grabbed the pen and opened the < Female Commandment >, copying every word on the blank paper.

She had just written two words when she suddenly thought of a very serious question. "Who is Xiao Jue?"

Xiao Jingyue pretended not to hear and did not reply.

Seeing this, the woman curled her lips and didn't say another word.

After an unknown period of time, Xiao Yi's trembling voice came from outside the door, "Master, those two maidservants of the Clear Wind Inn were scared unconscious by those poisonous creatures on Madam's bed."

With a "pu" sound, Qu Ling's hand trembled, and the pen fell on the paper.

Xiao Jingyue rubbed his glabella with a little headache, and said indifferently: "Where are you going to send those that you found over?"

Pausing for a moment, he continued: "Go to Prime Minister Mansion and get two wives to come over."

Hearing this, Qu Ling was afraid that Xiao Jian would bring his silk clothes, and immediately said: "I want my Aunt Tao, help me bring him over, I gave it to you."

"Yes sir!" Xiao Yi replied and left.

After a while, he heard Xiao Er say from the outside: "Master, Minister of War has ordered some people to send over invitations."

Xiao Jingyue and Qu Ling looked at each other for a moment. When Xiao Er came in, he handed over the invitation.

July 29 … There were only a few days left.

After Xiao Er left, she asked: "Are you going?"

"Why not?"

Qu Ling did not make a sound, and retrieved a clean piece of paper, grabbing a pen and continued to write.

After a while, Xiao Jingyue spoke faintly, "Did you find anything when you went to the Treasure Pavilion yesterday?"

"I didn't find anything." Qu Ling said, "Huo Xinyi said that he was sick and no one could be seen, I plan to go back tomorrow."

Coincidentally, he had made an appointment with Master Chen to go to the hairpin exam tomorrow afternoon to look at the blueprints.

Xiao Jingyue responded softly, he was quiet for a moment, and casually asked: "Listening to what Xiao Xiao said, you want to get a hairpin?"

The brush in Qu Ling's hand paused, and his eyes flashed slightly as he slowly said, "That's right, General, if you don't want to send me off, I'll have to do it myself."
