Chapter 589

Old General Qin was so angry that his beard trembled when he heard Qin Zhou's words, "Ah Zhou, what is more important than becoming a great cause? The emperor just wants to expand the territory. You must know that once Dazhou is captured, my territory in Beimo will be as big as it is. The expansion is more than half, it is the credit of our Qin family, our Qin family will last forever, and it will go down in history forever! Isn’t this what you have always wanted? Don’t you want to tell the world that even if you are a woman, Qin Zhou can achieve hegemony ?"

Looking at his grandfather's excited and angry face, Qin Zhou felt something was wrong.

Yes, this is her ideal, but her ideal is not based on the bones of the people in Beimo.

She loves Beimo, and hopes to expand the territory of Beimo. She wants to find a fertile land for the people of Beimo, and hopes that they can live and work in peace and contentment without being displaced.

However, as it is now, if she wants to achieve hegemony, she will have to sacrifice the lives of many people. The rations of the people will be used to fight, and the epidemic will be ignored. Is this what she wants?

"Grandfather, we can't do this!" Qin Zhou had never disobeyed his grandfather in his life. This was the first time. She felt very sad, but she had to do this.

Old General Qin couldn't believe his ears, "What? You can't do this? Don't you even listen to me?"

When he was excited, phlegm came up, and he coughed violently, so that tears came out of his cough.

"Grandfather!" Qin Zhou quickly patted him on the back, "What's wrong with you?"

Mr. Qin coughed so badly that his abdomen hurt. He finally stopped to take a breath, and then slapped her hand away, "You unworthy granddaughter, get out!"

Qin Zhou looked at him sadly, "Grandfather!"

"If you still call me grandfather, you must listen to me." After the excitement, Mr. Qin's face flushed, and his eyes were also red, and the desire and greed in his eyes appeared in his eyeballs.

Qin Zhou was silent, not knowing how to explain to his grandfather.

It seems that grandfather is already on the same side as the emperor, but why is grandfather so confused? My grandfather has always taught that as a general, you should put the people first.

However, he is sacrificing the people now.

"Ah Zhou," Old Master Qin calmed down when he saw her silence, "Grandpa didn't ask for much in his life. He only wanted to expand the territory of Beimo for me. This wish was not fulfilled. Grandpa died with regret. Your father and brother are not as good as you. Grandfather can only count on you, you know? I hope you will not let grandfather go away with hatred."

Qin Zhou was at war between heaven and man, her beloved grandfather on the one hand, and the people of Beimo on the other, how to choose between filial piety and righteousness? Loyalty and benevolence, how to balance?

"Listen to my grandfather's words, enter the palace and ask for an order to go to war, and make this great achievement for Bei Mo!"

Qin Zhou raised his head abruptly, "Grandfather, is it your intention or the emperor's intention to let me enter the palace to ask for an order?"

"There is no difference. It doesn't matter what anyone means. The most important thing is that you are going." Mr. Qin felt a little unnatural.

"It's what the emperor meant, isn't it?" Qin Zhou stared at him closely.

"The empress sent someone here today. She meant to ask you to enter the palace to ask for an order. If the emperor orders to go out at this time, he will be attacked by the Lord Peace faction. Only you, a great general, can enter the palace to ask for an order, so that the emperor can stay out of the matter." .”

Qin Zhou suddenly became angry, "Since it is the emperor's intention, why does the emperor stay out of the matter? Grandfather, I am not going here to make great achievements for Beimo. I will become Beimo's criminal subject anyway."

"How come? If you return triumphantly, who will hold you accountable? Everyone will only respect and praise you."

"No," Qin Zhou's mind is not confused. In fact, after the assassination just now, her mind is much clearer. "If I win, although Beimo has expanded its territory, my Qin family insists on going out, regardless of the life and death of the people. It is inhumane and unrighteous. If I lose, it is because I am so happy to sacrifice the interests of the people, it is even more inhumane, unjust, loyal and unfilial, because it will definitely implicate my Qin family's reputation and damage the foundation laid by my Qin family ancestors."

Old General Qin looked at her and said, "If so, the Qin family is still a hero."

Qin Zhou's heart was as cold as water, "Yes, as long as I die, the Qin family will still be heroes and heroes."

Mr. Qin was silent for a long time, then he said softly: "As a son and daughter of the Qin family, it is your duty to make sacrifices for the Qin family's reputation and foundation."

Qin Zhou clenched his fists angrily, "Haven't I done so little all these years? Who in the Qin family is not drinking my blood now?"

Mr. Qin stood up and said coldly: "I warn you, this time, you have to go or not. I have promised Empress Cao that you will definitely enter the palace today to ask for an order. If you don't go, only the old man will go." Take command and go out."

"You..." Qin Zhou looked at him sadly, "Grandfather, I am also your granddaughter, can't you take pity on me?"

"Grandfather takes pity on you, but our Qin family's family business must be passed on. Your younger brother has grown up. This time you take him there and make military exploits. You will have a share, and your brother will also have a share. At that time, the Qin family also had successors."

Qin Zhou was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing until he burst into tears, "Okay, okay, I didn't expect that my grandfather said that I was the hope of the Qin family, but he was just coaxing me, and his purpose was just to ask me to replace him. My younger brother has made great achievements so that he can inherit the Qin family's foundation, but I foolishly believed you."

When Old General Qin saw that she was about to go crazy, he was furious, "What do you look like? That's your brother too, why don't you do something for him?"

"Okay, okay, okay!" Qin Zhou said three times in a row, took a step back, his eyes shattered, "I will enter the palace now, as you wish!"

Old General Qin's face brightened, "Grandfather will accompany you into the palace."

Qin Zhou shouted angrily, "Go away, you old bastard, after this time, I will never have anything to do with you!"

Old General Qin was furious, "You...how dare you be so rude to grandfather?"

"I, Qin Zhou, will be ashamed of the Qin family all my life!" After Qin Zhou finished speaking, he turned around and ran out.

Mr. Qin was so angry that his breath was stuck in his throat. He stretched out his hand to support the chair, and suddenly felt the world was spinning, his eyes went dark, and he fell down.

"Old general!" The servant rushed over quickly.

Qin Zhou had already run out, and she could hear the servants shouting in panic. She turned her head and saw her grandfather passed out on the ground.

She hesitated for a moment, but ran back.

"Please doctor!" Qin Zhou ordered.

"Yes!" The servant rushed out.

Qin Zhou helped the old General Qin, still angry and uncomfortable in his heart, but after all, he respected and loved his grandfather for many years, and he couldn't give up for a while.

The servants carried Old General Qin back, and the doctor arrived soon.

After some diagnosis and treatment, he also asked the servants who served the old general. The doctor's face was heavy.

"How?" Qin Zhou asked.

The doctor glanced at her, "General, talk outside."

Seeing his solemn expression, Qin Zhou's heart sank, and he got up and walked out with him.
