The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!

Chapter 1360: Chapter 1355: Lin Sisi’s Tough Battle

What shook her the most was the child in her arms extending his hand, touching the back of her hand. “Mommy, mommy, I’m sorry, I… I missed you.”

He didn’t mean to hurt his mother, but Daddy said his mother was a bad person. Everyone said his mother had harmed them—the family and friends at the Prime Minister’s Estate, his little brothers were all so miserable.

His cousin was killed in front of him for his disobedience.

It was all related to his mother.

He was afraid that one day he would become like his cousin.

He was afraid that he and his father would become monsters who devour humans.

He didn’t want that!

“Rui’er…”

Zhuo Qing wanted to hold his hand, but the pain this child caused her, the disgrace of this man betraying her, she could never forget!

She violently shook off their hands, her eyes bloodshot as she glared at Chu Yifeng, “If you want to kill, then kill me! Kill everyone in this hall, I, as the Prime Minister, will never tell you anything. In this battle, the princess will surely win!”

Chen Ruobai would definitely support the women, bring Xin Yi, and change the destiny of all women in the world!

“If she wins, your husband and child will surely die. Are you keeping them alive because you don’t want them to die?”

Rong Sheng looked at Zhuo Qing, his expression calm and deadpan, yet hitting right on what Zhuo Qing cared about the most.

Despite her hatred, Zhuo Qing couldn’t bring herself to kill them!

She only wanted them to submit, to acknowledge her capabilities and her position in the family!

She didn’t want to be betrayed, to be dominated by the men in her family, to be ordered around by them!

Her husband’s gaze had always been indifferent towards her. Setting the child down, he knelt in front of Zhuo Qing, and heavily kowtowed to her.

With a thud!

A kowtow carried a sense of melancholy and resoluteness.

Zhuo Qing’s heart also trembled fiercely.

What suddenly flooded her mind was this man’s arrogance and superiority, how often he didn’t listen to her, even repeatedly marrying concubines, leaving her alone for 300 out of 365 days a year.

How much anger and grievance had she accumulated since their marriage?

Yet, when this man bowed before her, how satisfied was she?

Satisfied?

Perhaps a bit.

But more so, it seemed to be sadness.

Chu Yifeng’s eyes flickered slightly, and without waiting for this man to say something, he immediately stepped forward, grabbing his throat, “Speak, the war plans, or I will kill him immediately!”

“Don’t!”

Zhuo Qing’s eyes widened.

From his face and the way he addressed himself as ‘Your Highness,’ she should have known that this was not Chu Yihan, but his elder brother, Chu Yifeng!

The eighth prince of the Great Cheng Dynasty, a ruthless killer, bloodthirsty as a demon, his nature completely opposite to his brother’s, he had been observing for so long just to see what she cared about, what she was reluctant to part with.

Now, if she does not confess the truth, she feared for her husband’s life…

“Uh!”

The man had already rolled his eyes in Chu Yifeng’s grasp, his eyes displaying a ruthlessness that needed no demonstration.

It was that fierce.

It did not give anyone a chance to catch their breath.

Not speaking meant death.

Zhuo Qing didn’t know how he had managed to speak up, but once Chu Yifeng got the message, he grabbed Rong Sheng and left.

Chu Yifeng rode swiftly and took Rong Sheng to a guarded place. He needed to immediately send someone to inform Lin Sisi and then rush to Chu Yihan’s side. Chen Ruobai, that wretch, truly was full of surprises!

She knew that Lin Sisi would not surrender, so she focused her troops to capture Lin Sisi, intending to use her to threaten Chu Yihan.

If she succeeded, it would certainly be troublesome.

Chu Yifeng’s man delivered this news to Lin Sisi. Lin Sisi slightly furrowed her brow, “In that case… does that mean the main gate where the emperor is directly attacking has fewer troops?”

“Chen Ruobai’s forces were already few. According to what Zhuo Qing said, her corps of puppet corpses have all been brought here, and they are a newly crafted batch, made from living humans.”

After saying this, Chu Yifeng’s man left.

Lin Sisi fell into deep thought. If Chu Yihan received this message, he would definitely make her retreat and avoid a frontal conflict with Chen Ruobai’s troops. But if they didn’t retreat now, it was their opportunity.

Ye Qingru pondered before asking Lin Sisi, “General Lin, should we retreat now and rendezvous with the emperor?”

Lin Sisi shook her head, “Retreating now would still confront us with Chen Ruobai’s large army. Rather than that… let’s fight her.”

“Fight her?” Ye Qingru was confused, “We only have twenty thousand men. According to the news from Your Highness, Chen Ruobai has a large army and the puppet corpses. We are no match for them!”

“But it would be much easier for the emperor on his side. Chen Ruobai has sent all her puppet corpses to confront me. Wouldn’t breaking the city gates be easy for the emperor?” Lin Sisi’s eyes sparkled with excitement. She was well aware that she was falling into the enemy’s trap, about to face Chen Ruobai’s dreadful puppet corpse army. Yet she was happy; it would be much easier for her master.

Ye Qingru nodded, “I will follow your command, General!”

Originally, Chu Yihan had granted Lin Sisi twenty thousand troops, with Ye Qingru assigned to protect her. However, Chen Ruobai had changed her battle plan, and the situation had reversed. They nearly began fighting upon encountering each other, and Chen Ruobai’s goal was clear, to capture Lin Sisi if she couldn’t persuade her to surrender.

To use her as a lever to threaten Chu Yihan.

And her army of puppet corpses was formidable. Ye Qingru and Lin Sisi had suffered greatly in her hands. In a blink, there were only a few thousand of their troops left.

Lin Sisi and Ye Qingru led their people into a mountain valley.

Ye Qingru was gravely injured, his leg wounded by a puppet corpse. He had cut two chunks of flesh from his leg. His legs were now bloodied and a pitiful sight.

His face pallid, he collapsed on a rock, “General Lin… this time, we may not escape.”

Below the mountain, Chen Ruobai still had tens of thousands of troops and an indiscernible number of puppet corpses. Their few thousand men wouldn’t last long.

Lin Sisi pulled out the golden wound medicine Su Yingxue had given her and bound up Ye Qingru’s leg while reassuring, “It’s okay; you will be fine!”

“General Lin, let me protect you and help you retreat,” Ye Qingru, though a subordinate commander, was ready to sacrifice himself.

He knew he was insignificant compared to Lin Sisi.

Whether in terms of military achievements or capabilities, he was far inferior to Lin Sisi. Now that he was also severely injured, with such damage to his legs, he might never return to the battlefield. How could he not cover her retreat to ensure her safe departure?

Lin Sisi was, after all, the only female general of the Great Cheng Dynasty, a truly admirable figure.

“It’s you who should leave.”

Lin Sisi called over two soldiers beside Ye Qingru and handed him over to them, instructing, “Take General Ye safely away, and don’t look back.”

The two soldiers were startled, and even Ye Qingru widened his eyes, “General Lin, how can this be! I must protect you; how can I abandon you and leave first?”
