Picked Up A Husband For Farming

Qiao Yanhui’s words gradually calmed Ao Jie down. In the end, Ao Jie looked at Qiao Yanhui helplessly as he asked, “You… you’re my brother?” Ao Jie was very cautious. He hoped this news was true, but he was also afraid that this news was true.

“No matter what happened in the past, you just have to know that I’m here, so don’t be afraid!” This was definitely the only time Qiao Yanhui had shown gentleness towards anyone other than his wife and children.

Ao Jie felt inexplicably relieved and couldn’t help but lean into Qiao Yanhui’s arms. This had always been his dream. He was actually Qiao Yanhui’s biological brother.

Seeing Ao Jie wheedle like a woman, Xu Qing and Qiao Yanhui’s expressions darkened at the same time.

After Qiao Yanhui shook Ao Jie off, Ao Jie almost fell from his chair. He looked at Qiao Yanhui aggrievedly and said, “You just said that I’m your brother. Why are you still treating me like this?”

“Don’t push your luck.” Xu Qing rolled her eyes at Ao Jie.

Ao Jie still looked at Qiao Yanhui aggrievedly, like a devoted woman who had been abandoned.

“Get lost!” Qiao Yanhui said coldly.

Ao Jie was speechless. Was Qiao Yanhui really his brother? Why didn’t it seem so? But… why did things suddenly become so complicated?

Xu Qing and Qiao Yanhui didn’t say anything else. After all, this matter needed time to be resolved. The most important thing now was to deal with Ao Heng’s death. The country couldn’t be without a ruler, so they had to go back immediately.

However, since Lin Shu had activated Ao Jie No. 3 at this moment, it meant that Lin Shu had already thought of all the outcomes. Ao Jie No. 3 would return safely and announce to the world that Qiao Yanhui had colluded with foreign enemies to plot against the emperor. This would make Qiao Yanhui lose the support of the people. Or perhaps they wouldn’t even be able to go back anymore, and Lin Shu would control the government.

However, Qiao Yanhui didn’t expect Lin Shu to be so fast. At this moment, Qiao Yanhui was looking at the tightly shut city gate. Lin Shu had ordered the city gate to be sealed and Qiao Yanhui and the others were not allowed to enter the city. The reason was very simple. It was because Qiao Yanhui had launched a rebellion, killed the king, and kidnapped the crown prince.

Everyone in the capital was in a panic.

However, how could Lin Shu stop Qiao Yanhui? The Qiao family’s army was formidable. When Qiao Yanhui brought them into the city, the streets were silent again. The commoners didn’t even dare to go out.

Actually, they were more afraid of Qiao Yanhui. How could someone who killed his own father show mercy to ordinary people like them?

Xu Qing couldn’t tolerate Qiao Yanhui’s misunderstanding. She immediately pulled Ao Jie out in front of everyone and stood on the city wall as she shouted with her internal energy, “If General Qiao hadn’t led his troops to resist the foreign enemies this time, how could the Crown Prince have been safe and sound? The court officials would have been slaughtered! Have you all forgotten who risked his life to protect the country all these years? And who helped the Ancient Kingdom rise from the bottom ranking of the five countries to the third place through fighting on the bloody battlefield?”

When Xu Qing’s clear voice resounded throughout the entire street, everyone couldn’t help but walk out of their houses with moved expressions. Actually, it wasn’t that they didn’t understand this, but when big shots fought, the commoners suffered! However, suspecting the War God because of this made them feel very guilty.

Ao Jie watched the scene in front of him with a gratified expression. In fact, Qiao Yanhui was more popular than him and knew how to govern the country better than him. The throne belonged to the capable, but Qiao Yanhui wouldn’t agree… Lin Shu wouldn’t agree either. On this day, Ao Jie had also received a lot of news. He was very disappointed in Lin Shu. He had originally thought that Lin Shu was his mother, or at least loved him. Now that he thought about it, Lin Shu didn’t love him at all. Although Ao Jie knew the truth, he still couldn’t remember what had happened when he was seven years old. Perhaps it was because deep down, he was hiding from the truth…

At this moment, Lin Shu, who was in the palace, also received the news and was furious. Qiao Yanhui was simply too popular with the people. He didn’t even have to do anything and just had to stand there to win their support. This way, even if Ao Jie took over, wouldn’t he be another Ao Heng? What power would he have? In that case, how could she maintain a higher position with peace of mind? However, why had Ao Jie returned to normal? Was it Xu Qing’s doing? This woman was indeed a threat.

In the end, Qiao Yanhui asked Ao Jie to stay in the Qiao family’s house before he ascended the throne to prevent his personality from suddenly changing.

However, since Ao Jie had been fine these past few days, Xu Qing knew that Lin Shu couldn’t control Ao Jie completely as she pleased. Perhaps it was because Ao Jie No. 3 had a mental breakdown last time, so she couldn’t control Ao Jie completely anymore?

However, no matter what, until Ao Jie ascended to the throne, his mental state was normal.
