Chapter 168 The Mad General's Contract Wife 01 Background: shuhaige.net



As Gu Jiangli was mentally complaining, a flood of memories rushed towards her like a tide.

【Darling, your memories have been packaged up, please check them~】

Gu Jiangli's head was throbbing, and he couldn't hear Zizai's words clearly because they were coming from a distance.

This memory is different from the one in the previous life, which was shown to her through observation.

This time, it felt more like she had personally experienced these things.

The original owner, Gu Jiangli, was the daughter of a powerful family, but she suffered greatly from the war from a young age.

The two countries share a border, where war rages on relentlessly.

The male protagonist, Xie, is a brave and skilled general of the Northern Qi Dynasty. Despite repeated defeats, the Southern Lin Kingdom never gives up.

For the Southern Kingdom, launching a surprise attack on the Northern Qi would be ideal if successful, but if it failed, it would only result in the loss of a few soldiers.

For the people of the southern neighboring state, war was about vying for fiefdoms and becoming a headache for the Northern Qi.

The people living in the city will suffer the consequences.

Her family lived in a city on the border of Northern Qi.

The Southern Kingdom, like an unkillable cockroach, attacked several times. The patriarch believed that this place was no longer safe, so he immediately made a decision to move the whole family to the capital.

On the night of her departure, the Southern Kingdom launched another surprise attack, and she was separated from her family. The only person with her was her wet nurse, who had been by her side since childhood.

She and her wet nurse could only rely on each other for survival, constantly fleeing from place to place.

She longed to go to the capital to reunite with her family, but her lack of money made it difficult to do so.

When Gu Jiangli was sixteen, her wet nurse, after years of fleeing, became haggard and worn out.

Having nothing left, they had become refugees.

Gu Jiangli did not notice that the wet nurse's state of mind had undergone a tremendous change from a certain point in time.

She begged her way to another small town.

Just then, the Northern Qi soldiers said that a large number of spies from the Southern Lin Kingdom had infiltrated their town.

The general will reward anyone who brings in a suspicious spy.

Gu Jiangli never expected that after hearing this news, the wet nurse's gaze towards him would lose all its warmth.

She never imagined that, having lived in the Northern Qi Dynasty for sixteen years, she would suddenly become a spy for the Southern Lin Kingdom.

The person who made her a spy was none other than her wet nurse, whom she had always trusted implicitly!

Everyone knows that the people of Nanlin Kingdom love to have tattoos on their back shoulders, as this is considered proof of their identity.

In order to make her portrayal of a spy more believable, the wet nurse went to great lengths.

She used all the money she had begged to buy sleeping pills from a pharmacy and put them in a steamed bun.

After Gu Jiangli ate it, he became drowsy and lethargic.

In her sleep, she saw her wet nurse use sharp stones from the ground to cut her shoulder, leaving it bloody and mangled.

The pain made her wish she were dead.

What made her feel even more devastated was that the person who did all of this was her wet nurse!

She was then bound hand and foot and sent to General Xie's military camp in Northern Qi.

The wet nurse said that Gu Jiangli was a spy from the Southern Lin Kingdom.

The wound on her shoulder was proof that she wanted to destroy her identity immediately after it was discovered.

Gu Jiangli gave a bitter smile.

Those who march are not fools.

If anyone were so foolish as to easily believe her words, Northern Qi would not have been able to repeatedly defeat Southern Lin.

If the general had such a stupid mind, the Northern Qi would have been destroyed long ago.

But Gu Jiangli closed her eyes in despair, offering no defense for herself.

Because she knows better than anyone else.

Even if all the soldiers understood that she was not a spy.

She will certainly be kept in the military camp under the guise of a "spy".

Simply because she is a woman.

Moreover, she was a beautiful woman.

The soldiers around her revealed eyes like those of wolves and tigers; in her despair, she already knew her fate was sealed.

The wet nurse received twenty taels of silver.

She didn't even give her a second glance, nor did she offer the slightest apology, before turning and leaving.

Gu Jiangli closed her eyes, her grief more profound than despair.

She was separated from her family when she was four years old.

The wet nurse and she persevered on the run for twelve years.

In the end, he was defeated by twenty taels of silver.

She always considered her wet nurse as family.

She thought that if she stayed with her wet nurse, she would eventually find her family.

But then, she was betrayed by her only remaining family member.

In utter despair, she no longer wanted to live.

The soldiers locked her in the most secluded house, bound her hands and feet, and locked the door.

Be ready to enjoy her "feast" anytime.

But Gu Jiangli's only stroke of luck was that before the soldiers could humiliate him, the military orders rang out.

The Southern Kingdom launched another attack.

This time, it was more intense than ever before.

Almost all the soldiers in the army were mobilized.

Gu Jiangli stayed in this dark and gloomy house for three days, waiting for the news of the great victory of the Northern Qi.

The horn signaling victory blew for a full hour.

After the defeat of the Southern Lin Kingdom, it finally surrendered completely, signed the surrender document, and never attacked the Northern Qi again.

Upon hearing this news, she, a native of Northern Qi, felt no joy whatsoever.

She would rather die than win the war.

Then, Gu Jiangli arrived with the system.

She closed her eyes, sighed deeply, and quickly processed everything in her memory.

She even fully accepted the original owner's suicidal thoughts.

She could understand the original owner's desire to die.
