After leaving Xiangguo's Mansion, Qin Ran did not go home, but turned around and went to the palace.

If it weren't for the emperor's summons, ordinary people would not be able to enter the imperial city, even though Qin Ran was the daughter of a general, but the carriage could only go to the palace gate and was stopped.

Sprite followed Qin Ran's meaning, got out of the car and stuffed some silver into the person guarding the door: "Trouble big brother to inform us of the imperial general Qin Xiu, just say that his sister is waiting for him here, and ask him to come out to see him." ”

The soldiers guarding the door were also Qin Xiu's subordinates, glanced at the carriage, didn't dare to slack off, quietly stuffed the silver into his sleeves, and said, "Then you wait here, I'll send someone in to report." ”

Sprite had been waiting outside the carriage, and after about a quarter of an hour, she saw a familiar figure coming out of the palace, so she happily leaned over to the carriage: "Miss, the eldest prince is here." ”

Qin Ran opened the curtain and glanced outside, and really saw Qin Xiu walking towards him in palace clothes.

After a while, Qin Xiu walked to the side of the carriage: "Xiao Ran, why are you here?" ”

"There's something going on, I'd like to ask for your opinion." Qin Ran smiled and moved aside to make way of a position, "You come up first, let's say in the car." ”

Qin Xiu frowned, turned his head and glanced at the palace gate behind him, then quickly jumped into the carriage, got into the carriage and sat down: "What's the matter that can't wait for me to go home before saying anything, so anxious, and running here to find me?" ”

"It's a bit of a hurry." Qin Ran took a breath and guessed that his eldest brother might not be able to stay here for a long time, so he didn't beat around the bush and told him the subject directly: "Big brother, I want to ask you, three days later, the Xiangguo Mansion will hold a martial arts competition for Li Jing'er to recruit relatives, have you said this?" ”

"Hmm." Qin Xiu brushed the clothes on his body, and said, "I've heard of it." ”

"And what do you think in your heart?" Qin Ran blurted out, "Are you going to sign up?" ”

"Me?" Qin Xiu was stunned for a moment, obviously before this, he had never thought about this question, "Just compete in martial arts to recruit relatives, what else can you think, Xiao Ran, what are you asking for?" ”

Qin Ran pursed her lips and sighed heavily, she knew that she, the elm-headed eldest brother, was too unenlightened about emotional matters, and the appearance of this hindsight was really worrying.

However, she couldn't tell him directly, saying that Li Jing'er liked him and had been secretly in love with him.

After all, this is Li Jing'er's private matter, even if she worries about her eldest brother's marriage, she can't betray her good friend who trusts her.

"Big brother, let me ask you." Qin Ran gritted his teeth and looked at him with a serious expression: "Do you have any feelings for Li Jing'er?" ”

Qin Xiu was stunned for a moment, obviously he understood, but he still asked knowingly: "What does it feel, Xiao Ran, what do you want to say?" ”

Qin Ran's expression twitched: "That's it, do you like Li Jing'er or not?" ”

Qin Xiu was a little embarrassed: "Why did you suddenly ask this?" ”

"If you like her, hurry up and sign up for the competition, or when the competition is over, she will be married by someone else."

Qin Ran felt that she had never worried about one thing so seriously in her life, and she was about to break her heart: "Big brother, Li Jing'er is beautiful and knowledgeable, don't you think it's particularly suitable to marry home as a wife?" ”

Qin Xiu was just puzzled, but now he was completely inexplicable, he reached out and scratched her head, and asked with a smile: "There are so many good women in the world today, all of them are suitable for being wives, do you have to marry your eldest brother and I back home?" ”
