Hearing Xu Huizu's question.
Xu Yingxu and Xu Zengshou both looked hesitant.
"What happened?"
"Speak!" Xu Huizu frowned.
Seeing the angry Xu Huizu, the two of them panicked and did not dare to hide it anymore.
"Big brother, little sister has been missing for two years. She has been living in a small town in Beiping Prefecture, and she has developed feelings for a merchant who is about the same age as little sister.”Xu Yingxu said slowly.
"Merchant?"
Xu Huizu frowned slightly, but he quickly relaxed.
"No wonder father said those words to little sister before he died.”
"Although the merchant's status is low, if little sister really likes him and that person is also in love with little sister, I can consider letting him marry into my Xu family.”Xu Huizu thought for a moment and said.
"Big brother."
"This can't be."
"That kid is just a merchant with a lowly status. Even if he marries into our family, he will bring shame to our Xu family. If word gets out, he will definitely be laughed at by the world.”Xu Yingxu immediately stopped him.
"Yes, Big Brother."
"My Xu family is the descendant of the Duke and the founding father of the country. We must not tarnish the reputation of my Xu family because of a merchant.”
"Little sister's status is noble, how can she be compatible with a merchant?”Xu Zengshou immediately stopped him.
Hearing the words of his two younger brothers.
Xu Huizu pondered for a moment.
"I'm sure you all heard what Father said before he died.”
"I won't stop little sister from making her choice. If little sister can be happy, I don't care about my face.”Xu Huizu said slowly.
Compared to the arrogance of his two younger brothers, Xu Huizu was much more stable and open-minded.
"But big brother…"
Xu Yingxu and Xu Zengshou's expressions changed, and they wanted to persuade him again.
"Alright."
"I will find an opportunity to meet my little sister and give her the right to choose.”
"As for you guys, don't interfere.”Xu Huizu waved his hand and ignored his two younger brothers.
In the end.
Now that Xu Huizu had inherited the title of Duke, he was also the eldest brother. His words carried weight in the Public House.
Xu Yingxu and the other man didn't dare to object.
But deep down, they were naturally unwilling.
"Yes."
The two of them could only nod and turn around to leave.
"Father."
"Since you said before you died that you want little sister to do as she pleases, I won't stop little sister.”
"No matter what she chooses, as her big brother, I will support her.”
Xu Huizu raised his head and muttered to himself.
Once Xu Da died, the burden of the High Duke's Public House fell on his shoulders. Naturally, he had also fully matured.
As Xu Da's eldest son, his ability was unquestionable.
Outside Xu Miaojin's room.
"Little sister."
"Second Brother and Fourth Brother are looking for you.”
Xu Yingxu shouted.
"Second brother, fourth brother, I'm not feeling well.”Xu Miaojin's deep voice rang out.
"It's about Zhu Xiong."
"Little sister, are you sure you don't want to listen?" Xu Zengshou said.
"What…what happened to him?"
Xu Miaojin's voice changed. She sounded a little anxious.
"This is the information I got from the Ministry of War. I left it at the door.”
"Fourth brother, let's go." Xu Yingxu put a document in his hand at the door, then gave Xu Zengshou a look, and the two of them turned around and left.
After they left.
The door opened.
A maid quickly took the book in and closed the door.
"Miss."
After the maid entered the room, she immediately handed the document to Xu Miaojin, who was sitting on the bed.
Xu Miaojin did not hesitate and opened the book. However, when she saw the words inside, her pretty face instantly turned pale.
"Brother Xiong…No, he won't.”
"You…Why are you so silly?"
"Why did you go to the battlefield? No, it definitely won't.”
"You said you would come and find me. You won't die.”
Xu Miaojin's face turned pale, and her expression became terrified.
"Miss, what's wrong?"
"Don't be like this…Otherwise, it'll affect the fetus.”
When the maid saw this, she quickly comforted Xu Miaojin.
He looked at the paper that Xu Miaojin was clutching tightly. On it was clearly written information about Zhu Xiong.
Zhu Xiong lived in Ansha Town, Beiping Prefecture. He was a merchant and had joined the army. Three months ago, he attacked Northern Yuan with the Beiping army. Two months ago, he was surrounded by the Northern Yuan army and died for his country.
Seeing this, Xu Miaojin's face turned ashen.
It was as if the hope in his heart had been shattered.
Xu Miaojin felt a wave of dizziness and fell onto the bed, fainting.

Conference Hall!
"Emperor, this is Zhu Xiong's life record.”
Jiang Qiong respectfully handed a book to Zhu Yuanzhang, who was handling the memorial.
"Yes."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, put down the memorial in his hand, and picked up the book.
After reading it.
"This Zhu Xiong is only sixteen years old?"”
"Replying to the emperor, this life was directly read from the Ministry of War. The records are clear and there can't be any mistakes.”
"From the life recorded in this book, this Zhu Xiong is indeed a talent. At a young age, he has made extraordinary contributions to the Ming Dynasty. With his military achievements, he became an official and a garrison. It is no wonder that His Highness the King of Yan would mention Zhu Xiong in the news.”Jiang Meng said respectfully.
"Is there really such a similar coincidence in this world?”
