Divine Doctor: Daughter of the First Wife

This Grandaunty Attacked Jue Ping City Because I Had a Dream action

Without any suspense, Gu Shu’s second city from the North had its city wall and gate flattened by Da Shun’s heavenly lightning. When Bi Xiu brought his soldiers to the entrance, what they saw was a city gate with a large hole in the middle. There was also a partially collapsed city wall.

Through the hole in the gate, he saw a male and a female at the front of the army sitting atop their own camels. The male wore purple robes and was the ninth prince of Da Shun, Xuan Tian Ming. As for the girl with a white dress at his side, he was not unfamiliar with her. Although he had never met her before, he had seen her image many times. It was none other than the ninth prince’s future princess, Imperial Daughter Ji An, Feng Yu Heng.

Bi Xiu hated the two so much that his teeth itched. He especially hated Feng Yu Heng. A girl that did not obediently stay at home to embroider actually went with a man in the middle of the night onto a battlefield. They had also beaten Gu Shu so brutally. Losing to Xuan Tian Ming was not a disgrace, but losing to his wife was far more disgraceful.

Feng Yu Heng’s appearance on the battlefield was a humiliation to all of Gu Shu’s soldiers, but faced with this humiliation, they did not dare to rush forward to attack. This was especially the case after the people of Gu Shu saw Feng Yu Heng holding a strange thing. The steps that they had wanted to take to forward were pulled back even further. They all remembered that the people of Da Shun had used similar things to strike down their comrades that had been standing atop the walls. The majority of them had holes in their foreheads, and the thing that had been dug out was actually something that could not have its original form accurately determined.

The city’s gate had been blown up, opening up a large hole. Through this, the inside and outside were connected. The people inside the city trembled with fear. Regardless of how much General Bi Xiu called the people to move and defend, there was not a single person that wished to step forward. Outside the City, Xuan Tian Ming’s army was in high spirits. The soldiers on that side did not care about whether or not there was any shame in having a girl on the battlefield. They had already become accustomed to it. Even these weapons had been provided by her. Moreover, could Imperial Daughter Ji An be compared to a normal girl? In the hearts of these soldiers, their Imperial Daughter Ji An, their princess, was a heavenly deity! Having a deity help in a battle, what was shameful about that?!

Xuan Tian Ming pointed at the large hole in the gate and said to his wife: “Blow it up a few more times. Make it a bit bigger. That way, when we charge in, we won’t be so cramped.”

Feng Yu Heng nodded, “Just directly destroy the main gate! Forget about the walls. Don’t continue blowing that up. That will save us the effort of repairing it later. Jue Ping City is far. It will be difficult for us to transport building materials from Lan Zhou.”

These words that were said without regard for anyone else made it seem as though Jue Ping City had already been conquered. It completely ignored the existence of Gu Shu’s army inside the city. For the two, this interaction was very natural. With these powerful weapons, and with His Highness the ninth prince and Imperial Daughter Ji An working together, not to mention a measly Jue Ping City, but even directly launching an attack on the capital would be a very easy thing to do.

Gu Shu’s General Bi Xiu had drank some wine. Although he had been sobered up slightly by the exploding heavenly lightning, he was still a bit affected by the alcohol. The more he looked at Feng Yu Heng, who was dressed in white, the angrier he became. He could not help but mutter through gritted teeth: “Being in such a hurry to put on white clothes, are they performing a funeral for our Gu Shu?”

The deputy general at his side advised: “General, the enemy is before us. It is unlucky to say such things!” The battle still had not yet been fought, so how could the general begin speaking about funerals, much less their own. What sort of situation was this? He thought for a bit and thought of what Feng Yu Heng’s white dress meant, thus he continued: “I heard that there were two consecutive funerals held in Sha Ping City. They were for Imperial Daughter Ji An’s family. Her mother and father both passed away. There is indeed a funeral being performed.”

When Bi Xiu heard this, he laughed and recalled the matter of the funerals being conducted, thus he began to laugh. Pointing at the people outside the hole in the gate, he loudly shouted: “Both your father and mother have died. Instead of staying home to pray, what have you come out here to fight a battle for? For a girl like you that is so fierce, to not have such a hard life would be strange! Feng Yu Heng! How about you take off that set of mourning clothes and let this general take a look to see the body under those mourning clothes is as radiant?” Upon hearing that her father and mother had just died, he, who had originally felt irritated from seeing Feng Yu Heng standing across from him in white clothes, suddenly felt that the white dress really was quite nice to look at! “It serves you right for your family members to have died. As this general sees it, it won’t be long before your Feng family becomes a childless family!”

At night in the desert, this sort of thing could be heard very clearly. Every word was heard by the soldiers in Da Shun’s army. This caused all of the soldiers to become furious. They could no longer hold back, as they raised their weapons to begin charging.

Feng Yu Heng, however, raised her hand and stopped the charging soldiers. She did not get angry and pulled out a megaphone from her sleeve. Xuan Tian Ming saw her use this once more and could not help but laugh, saying: “In any case, you should have some internal strength. It should not be that you would need this thing to speak loudly, right?”

She just rolled her eyes and said: “Use internal strength to speak with these people from Gu Shu? Too much of a waste.” She then turned on the megaphone and tested it a few times before saying: “Hey! The one that called himself the general or something! Right, I’m talking about you. The one that looks like a marmot. You drank some wine, right? A dignified general, rather than leading his soldiers into battle, you stand there arguing with a girl like me. Just look at your prospects. It really does match your height, being just that tall!”

When Feng Yu Heng opened her mouth, it caused Da Shun’s soldiers to begin laughing. A marmot? It was true! General Bi Xiu was naturally short and a bit round. Riding a camel, he looked like a marmot! Imperial Daughter’s description really was accurate.

It was also the case that Feng Yu Heng’s megaphone was very good and was very loud. The sound transmitted into the city and also caused some of Gu Shu’s soldiers to burst out laughing. There was even one that recalled what the girls in the red tents had said about General Bi Xiu. They had said that the general’s thing was very small, and he always demanded that the girls praise him for being skilled in battle. In truth, it was just messing around. Those that did not know might even think that he was a girl. Upon thinking of this, he found it even harder to hold back his laughter, causing his face to turn bright red.

Bi Xiu angrily hollered. Looking at the deputy general at his side and the officers of the coalition army, no matter how he looked at them, he felt as though they were laughing at him. He felt that he had no face and loudly shouted: “Little girl! Don’t be a fool and reject this face-saving offer!”

This was met with Feng Yu Heng’s laughter: “I say, marmot, are you tired? Shouting back and forth, will this battle be fought or not? Also, I will remind you that using the Feng family to provoke me is a grave mistake. You are opposing us, so why have you not thought of doing some investigating? The Feng family? Ever since a few years ago, this grandaunty has stopped expecting anything good from them. Whether they live or die, what damn difference does it make to me? As for you bringing up my mother’s funeral, I really do want to say a few words on that matter.” She cleared her throat then sat up straight, saying in a very serious tone to Bi Xiu: “Marmot, listen up. His Highness Prince Yu and this imperial daughter attacked Jue Ping City today is related to the funeral. This Imperial Daughter has gone to see mother’s grave and felt that the feng shui was extremely good. Yesterday, mother visited me in a dream and said that no matter how good the feng shui is, it is still too close to Gu Shu, and she is unable to sleep at ease. That’s why this imperial daughter and His Highness the ninth prince began to plan. Forget it, since mother felt that it’s too close to Gu Shu, let’s just chase Gu Shu further away. From this day forward, mother will be able to rest in peace without anyone disturbing her. It also will not permit you people from Gu Shu to cause any trouble. Un, right, this is the reason that we came to attack Jue Ping City tonight!”

These words nearly caused the noses of Gu Shu’s soldiers to go crooked from anger. It turned out that attacking Jue Ping and eradicating a city was because of a dream of a dead person? Could the excuse have been any more random? Could it have been any more infuriating? How should they accept this? If Jue Ping City was lost, even if they could keep their lives, if blame was assigned by the capital, what sort of explanation could be provided?

Bi Xiu thought on a different level and even thought of when he would need to kneel in court and beg the ruler through tears: “Da Shun said that the reason they attacked Jue Ping is that Imperial Daughter Ji An’s dead mother visited her in a dream.” The ruler of Gu Shu would then wave his hand and have him executed after saying: “Nonsense.”

Bi Xiu’s face was burning, and he was about to lead his soldiers forward to fight with Da Shun. At this time, Xuan Tian Ming’s voice spoke up: “This prince’s wife is in a bad mood. This prince is also unable to coax her. Forget it, forget it, let’s just take Jue Ping City to serve as some entertainment for my wife and to let her vent a bit. Sooner or later, we will go and destroy your base. Come, come, come, general marmot, will you come out, or should we come in?”

Feng Yu Heng interjected and said: “Let’s have them come out. Going in to fight would ruin the buildings, and we will be the ones that will need to repair it. It’s not worth it.”

In the end, Gu Shu’s soldiers were full of vigor. How could they endure this sort of humiliation? Thus they cast their horror into the back of their minds. Without any need for Bi Xiu to urge them, they raised their weapons and charged out of the city.

Bi Xiu had been infuriated to his limits. Feng Yu Heng repeatedly calling him marmot had specifically chosen his shortcomings to insult him. How could he endure it? In addition to this, the effects of the alcohol took hold once more, thus he simply raised his weapon and rushed out of the city.

The deputy general was a person from Gu Shu. Seeing his general charge out, there was no reason for him to remain inside the city, thus he loudly shouted: “Da Shun! Present your lives!” Once these words came out, he had already followed Bi Xiu in charging out.

Gu Shu’s soldiers had charged; however, the soldiers of the coalition army were relatively calm. Either way, Da Shun had only insulted Gu Shu. It was completely unrelated to them. The people of Gu Shu had been provoked by insults into charging toward their deaths; however, the coalition still remembered that Da Shun’s army had a weapon called heavenly lightning. Their hearts were still filled with horror, and they did not want to leave the city to participate in this brutal battle.

But to retreat like this was too shameful. After all, they had already formed a coalition. To retreat when the battle broke out would be too disgraceful. Thus these people simply remained inside Jue Ping to watch until the explosive “boom” of Da Shun’s heavenly lightning came from outside. In an instant, a gap was formed in the ranks of Gu Shu’s army of hundreds of thousands. Wu Lan’s general immediately brought his soldiers and retreated. Immediately following them, the other members of the coalition army also left, and someone even shouted: “General Bi Xiu, if you can’t win, just retreat! We will wait for you in Yue Ping City!”

From the frontline, Bi Xiu had regained his mental composure from the sound of exploding heavenly lightning, and he could faintly hear those words. The anger caused him to cough up a mouthful of blood...
