The peasant girl has a private space, and her husband is handsome.

The King of Huainan was truly enraged.

The strategist was turned against his cause, and the silver bricks produced by the silver mine located between Ling County and Sicheng were also emptied. He didn't even need to think to know that it must have been that little girl who did it.

That little girl was born to bring him bad luck. If it weren't for her, his soldiers would have already marched to the capital of Qi.

The King of Huainan deeply regretted not listening to Li Xuanji's advice to kill the young girl before she was fully grown, thus preventing future troubles.

That little girl has now become the biggest obstacle on his path to becoming emperor.

Therefore, the King of Huainan gathered 90% of his troops to besiege Sicheng, and the Miao holy maiden was already on her way.

They were just waiting for the Miao holy maiden to arrive so they could start a massacre.

This time, I'll make sure that little girl surnamed Su dies a horrible death.

Su Qianqian stood on the city wall of Sicheng, nimbly dodging two arrows, and looked down at the tens of thousands of rebel soldiers.

The rebels below were densely packed and numerous.

However, with the huge rocks placed outside the city by Su Qianqian as a barrier, it was not easy for the rebels to break into the city.

Military Advisor Zhang braved a hail of enemy arrows to survey the city walls, then returned and asked, "General Su, what are your instructions?"

"Just let the soldiers keep firing arrows out of the city."

Soldiers, who had been arranged in advance, were hiding in the grooves of the city wall and shooting arrows downwards.

There were hundreds of thousands of people below, a dark mass, and according to scouts, rebel forces from other places were also heading this way.

The boulder that Su Qianqian had placed outside the city gate was being hit with loud thuds.

The enemy was clever; they made several oversized chisels in the style of ordinary chisels and used carts to push these giant chisels against the rocks.

After only a few dozen impacts, the boulder has already developed cracks, so the boulder outside the city gate is about to give way and will soon break.

The military supervisor Zhu, sent by the imperial court, was timid and hid behind a shield. He observed this scene and trembled with fear.

It's over, the giant stone barrier is about to break, Sicheng can't be defended.

It seems that the King of Huainan is determined to take Sicheng this time.

If he doesn't escape, he'll definitely die here.

What a load of crap, let whoever wants to be the military supervisor be it; he's definitely not taking it.

Zhu Jianjun's legs were shaking so badly that he collapsed to the ground.

He was fat and fleshy, so when he fell to the ground, it didn't hurt much, but a puddle of smelly water appeared on the ground.

Qin Changfeng spat, "Pah, useless thing."

He felt that the military supervisor Zhu sent by the imperial court was a coward, easily frightened by the smallest things, and far inferior to General Su.

It's ironic that even incompetent cowards are given official positions, while the truly capable General Su is not. The court is truly blind.

Having stayed in Qinghe County for so long, Qin Changfeng's heart had long since turned towards Su Qianqian.

Zhu Jianjun cried and howled, saying he wanted to go back to Qinghe County, which gave everyone a headache.

Su Qianqian glanced at Supervisor Zhu with disdain. Supervisor Zhu was sent by Prime Minister Feng to monitor her. If he wanted to escape, let him escape. She couldn't wait for Supervisor Zhu to run away.

"Qin Changfeng, escort Supervisor Zhu back to Qinghe County."

"Yes, General."

In the past, when Zhu Jianjun heard others call Miss Su "General," he would correct them with a stern face, but today he acted as if he hadn't heard them at all.

He awkwardly mounted the chestnut horse and hurriedly followed Qin Changfeng towards Qinghe County.

In the capital, Vice Minister Luo had just returned to his residence when he heard that his wife had returned to the capital. Without even changing out of his official robes, he immediately went to the main courtyard.

When I got there, I found out that my wife had broken her leg.

Hearing my wife crying made me feel very annoyed.

"Alright, stop crying and wailing. What kind of behavior is this?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Luo immediately stopped crying.

Minister Luo sat upright at the round wooden table, showing no concern for his wife's legs, but rather anxiously wondering if his granddaughter had been reunited with him.

"How did it go? Did you win back that girl's heart?"

When Luo saw his wife shaking her head, he angrily slammed his hand on the table, causing the vase and teacup on the table to fall to the ground.

The old lady had been frightened in Qinghe County, and now she was frightened by Vice Minister Luo, turning her face pale with fright.

She was worried that if Minister Luo got too angry, he would actually divorce her.

Madam Luo quickly explained, "Master, the Prince of Huainan has assembled an army of 200,000 to besiege that girl. Whether she acknowledges us or not is no longer important, since she won't live much longer anyway."

Because the Prince of Huainan besieged Sicheng, Madam Luo was terrified and traveled day and night, returning to the capital in just over two days.

"Master, there's no need to waste any more energy on that girl. She'll be dying soon and has no good fortune to marry into the Guiping Marquis's household."

After thinking about it, Vice Minister Luo agreed.

Even if that little girl is very capable, she couldn't possibly withstand the 200,000-strong army of the King of Huainan. Moreover, the King of Huainan also has a trump card: the Holy Maiden of Miao Jiang, who has never been defeated.

Before leaving the house, Minister Luo looked at his wife's broken left leg and said with disdain, "Look at you, after decades of being immersed in the ways of the capital, you've been reduced to such a sorry state by that little girl."

Vice Minister Luo felt both joy and resentment towards his granddaughter, who lived far away in Qinghe County.

What pleases them is that the girl is exceptionally intelligent and highly skilled, making her the most promising among all the younger generation in the Luo family.

What I hate is that girl completely disregards family ties.

If that girl were a boy, he would surely have a bright future in officialdom, and he would have raised her even at the cost of the entire Luo family's fate, so there would have been no issue of severing ties with his family.

After Vice Minister Luo had walked away, Old Madam Luo revealed a resentful expression, "If I had known that the child should have been drowned in the water as soon as he was born, none of this trouble would have happened."

That child, of course, refers to the one who was switched at birth with Luo Kang, the devilish girl's father.

The letter that Supervisor Zhu wrote to the imperial court has already arrived in the capital.

He wrote in the letter—

The Prince of Huainan has amassed an army of 200,000. The massive stone barriers outside the gates of Sicheng have been destroyed by the rebels, and Sicheng is about to fall...

It was already evening, but due to an urgent military situation, the ministers were summoned back to the palace.

As everyone was discussing matters, Marquis Guiping burst in, panting heavily.

No one dared to criticize Marquis Guiping. As an official of the Ministry of Rites, Marquis Guiping was entitled to attend meetings in the Xuanwu Hall.

However, Emperor Jing of Qi felt that this uncle was useless, so he exempted the uncle from the morning court and never informed the uncle of any matters to be discussed.

When Marquis Guiping entered, he happened to hear Prime Minister Feng speaking.

"Your Majesty, that Miao holy maiden is invincible and undefeated. Moreover, the Prince of Huainan has gathered 200,000 elite troops this time. The outcome is obvious. I urge Your Majesty to quickly recall the troops from Qinghe County to the capital to defend it. There is no need to leave troops in Qinghe County and make unnecessary sacrifices."

Vice Minister Luo also said, "Your Majesty, the situation in Qinghe County and Sicheng is beyond saving. Now, sending troops back to the capital can preserve some of our strength. In addition, we should send another 100,000 troops back to the capital from the border. Only then can we protect the capital and preserve the foundation of our Great Qi Dynasty that has lasted for hundreds of years."

Minister Zhang of the Ministry of Personnel was in the same faction as Prime Minister Feng and originally wanted to agree with him, but after glancing at Marquis Guiping, who was clenching his fist, he was too frightened to utter a sound.

Being beaten by that reckless person would be pointless, so it's wiser to remain silent at this point.

Minister Qin of the Ministry of War, being quite old, walked out with trembling steps and objected, saying, "Your Majesty must not recall the troops to the capital. If the troops are transferred from Qinghe County now, it will greatly damage morale, and Miss Su will be defeated without a fight!"

After all, Qin Changfeng, the grandson of Minister Qin, is still in Qinghe County, so it's impossible not to worry.

Marquis Guiping rushed up and punched Prime Minister Feng, leaving him with a black eye.

Not stopping there, he climbed onto Prime Minister Feng and continued to throw punches.

"You worthless prime minister, you want to recall the troops from Qinghe County, you're clearly trying to kill my future daughter-in-law."

The officials on the sidelines didn't dare to step forward to break up the fight; whoever tried to intervene would be beaten by Marquis Guiping.

Marquis Guiping is His Majesty's maternal uncle, and because the Gong family has few heirs, Marquis Guiping is the Empress Dowager's only younger brother.

Marquis Guiping was more than ten years younger than Prime Minister Feng, and had grown up with dogs and cockfighting since childhood. He had done a lot of beatings, so Prime Minister Feng was no match for him.

"You worthless prime minister, you're probably just jealous because I got a lucky koi fish as my daughter-in-law. But your jealousy won't change anything."

Marquis Guiping's eyes were bloodshot from the beating, and he looked like a rabbit. Even Vice Minister Luo, who was trying to break up the fight, had his eye socket gouged out.

The entire Xuanwu Hall was in complete chaos.

Emperor Jing of Qi had long disliked Prime Minister Feng. After Marquis Guiping had finished beating him, he coughed twice and shouted, "Stop! Don't do anything reckless!"
