Du Wanwan, a military doctor, overworked herself to death. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself branded a 'calamity star'—hated by everyone, facing a forced exodus, and expel...
Chapter 398: The battle between the Northern Kingdom and the Great Wei is doomed to fail, and there is no possibility of recovery
"We also have a business. The old lady's sweet soup is very good. We will sell it in our own shop in the future. We don't have to go out in the wind or rain."
The toothless old woman followed happily: "We make dim sum at home. We have already decided to open a dim sum shop."
Liu Xiaowu wondered: "Are all the neighbors in your area running small businesses?"
"Really?"
The three answered in unison.
The old man looked at the busy construction site and the houses under construction and said: "We are all people who do small businesses to support our families. In the past, we didn't have shops, so we could only go from one house to another to sell our goods.
It will be different when we have a shop. We no longer have to carry things everywhere. We can just stay in the shop peacefully. Our life will surely get better and better."
The emperor looked at the construction site over there and felt indescribable emotion in his heart.
Doctor Du's consultation fee is expensive, but the things she does are convincing. Not only does she give free medicine, but she also renovates dilapidated houses for residents in the west of the city.
It seems that the high fees are only for the rich, and ordinary people are not charged such high medical fees.
Is she robbing the rich to help the poor?
Du Wanwan: “????”
What? Robbing the rich to help the poor? Forget it! I don't have that ability.
It’s just that the King of Qi has a lot of silver in his treasury, and he would feel sorry for himself if he didn’t spend it.
Things that we cannot bring with us when we are born and cannot take with us when we die just take up space. It would be better to improve the living conditions of the people.
After the house is built and the business is established, we will find ways to improve other things, such as education, medical care, and elderly care.
There are also beggars and homeless people on the streets who need to be disciplined. Is it appropriate to have beggars all over the streets in the great Wei capital?
It’s okay, just take it one step at a time, she’s not in a hurry.
Ye Tingxiao and his men fought with Qi Zi for almost two months and had driven Qi Zi out of the border of Wei.
Arriving at the vast wasteland, a thrilling battle is stirring up a strong atmosphere.
The sun was high in the sky, shining brightly, but even such scorching sunlight could not conceal the tense atmosphere of the confrontation between the two armies.
The soldiers on both sides faced each other in the highest state of alert.
Each of their weapons was carefully crafted and flashed with a cold light.
Although their armor has been tempered by battle, it still reflects a firm light, as if telling of the soldiers' determination and courage.
In the open space between the two armies, Ye Tingxiao stood alone.
He has a determined look in his eyes, a resolute face, and an awe-inspiring aura he exudes.
Every breath he took seemed to be a challenge to the heaven and earth, and every movement he made seemed to be a challenge to his own limits.
His mount, a majestic black warhorse named Heifeng, seemed to feel the tense atmosphere as well and was pedaling anxiously.
Suddenly, a long horn sounded, breaking the tense confrontation.
This was the signal to attack. The soldiers shouted in unison, waving their weapons and rushing towards the enemy. The muskets and arrows instantly intertwined into a magnificent picture.
The battle was raging. The roars of the soldiers, the clash of weapons, the cheers of victory, and the wails of pain all echoed across the wasteland.
This battle is not just a confrontation between two armies, but also a contest of honor and belief of every soldier.
Every soldier showed their bravery and determination.
They shuttled between blood and fire; their every charge, every defense, and every swing became part of the battle, weaving into a grand and exciting picture.
Amidst the flash of swords and the shadow of sabers, Ye Tingxiao still stood alone.
The musket in his hand seemed to have life, shining brightly in the sunlight.
Every shot was accompanied by a sound of breaking through the air, tearing through the air and emitting a powerful momentum.
Every attack he made seemed like a challenge, and every dodge he made seemed like a refusal to fail.
The war horses neighed and their hooves sounded like thunder. Ye Tingxiao and his horse Heifeng were like a unique melody on the battlefield, one of a kind.
They don't simply follow the rhythm of the battle, but lead the entire battle in their own unique way.
Countless soldiers were also fighting and killing.
They moved individually or in groups like huge waves, launching fierce attacks on the enemy one after another.
The attack came like a waterfall from the sky, unstoppable; their defense was like a solid rock, impenetrable.
The soldiers' physical strength was constantly being depleted, but their determination and courage never diminished.
With their tenacious will and boiling blood, they break through their own limits time and time again, writing their own epic.
As the sun set, the battle finally subsided in the twilight.
But even in the darkness, the soldiers did not stop their steps.
They repair weapons, treat wounds, and carry dead comrades. Their busyness is like the stars in the night sky. Although unknown, they shine with a unique light.
The gangsters were completely defeated, and Yetingxiao's name became their nightmare.
Whenever we meet him, the battle will be one-sided with no suspense at all.
The battle between the Northern Kingdom and the Great Wei was doomed to failure, and there was no possibility of recovery.
In the northern imperial capital, the Khan received the battle report and his brows were furrowed so much that they could pinch a fly to death.
Noble Consort Wei was by his side, and when she saw the report of the failed battle, cold anger appeared in her eyes.
She was once the woman of the Emperor of Wei, but she never got the status she deserved. She tried to fight for it, but lost, because of her birth.
On quiet nights, she often thought alone and reflected on her failures.
She understood that her mistake was that she was the daughter of the Wei family.
She was too confident and thought her beauty and wisdom were enough to win everything, but she ignored the complexity and fickleness of human hearts.
She did not give up. The anger and hatred in her heart burned like a raging fire, spurring her to seek revenge.
She began to plot secretly, wanting to use her intelligence to stir up a storm in the court of the Emperor of Wei, leaving the son of the Khan of the Northern Kingdom in Wei, and using her death to make the Emperor of Wei feel guilty for the rest of his life.
When her son grows up and plots to seize the Wei kingdom, she will reveal the truth. What expression will the Wei emperor have then?
She had been waiting for this day, but it never came.
I originally thought that if I got the repeating crossbow and presented it to the Khan of the Northern Kingdom, I would be able to realize my wish, but I didn't expect that the damn Wei Kingdom actually created a musket.
The Northern Kingdom’s army has been defeated and forced out of the Wei territory, but they are still pursuing us relentlessly. If this continues, will they reach the Northern Kingdom’s imperial capital?
What does the Emperor of Wei want to do?
You're pressing on step by step. Are you trying to force him to death?
Back then, she left the child in the Wei Palace and did not tell the Khan that the child was his. She just wanted to play a big game.
It seems that it is no longer possible to make Wei a vassal state of the Northern Kingdom. The Emperor of Wei seems to have discovered something. She has not heard from the King of Qi for a long time.
