Marrying a Disabled General and be His Wife

Tan Chuyan had led the Feng family navy to attack four times in a row, but each time he ordered a retreat at the most critical moment.

No one except Feng Chilie knew what he was going to do, and Feng Mingyuan was even more curious.

Feng Mingyuan laid on the imperial concubine’s chair and asked Feng Mingzhen: “Auntie, tell me, what the hell is that boy Tan Chuyan doing again?”

“It’s definitely not a good thing.” Feng Mingzhen said, “Her Majesty, you must be on guard in advance, especially after the Jing Kingdom was captured.”

“I know,” Feng Mingyuan thought for a while and said, “But there is no need to be on guard anymore. Auntie, think about it, it has been so long since Feng Chilie lived in Dayong and he hasn’t even seen Wolf Eagle Cavalry. I didn’t even see the shadow of that Cavalry here, so where do you think such a huge army will be?”

Feng Mingzhen reacted instantly; the Wolf Eagle Cavalry could only be still in the Jing Kingdom.

“But there are at least 50,000 Wolf Eagle Cavalry. Where can they hide?” Feng Mingzhen asked.

“I don’t know,” Feng Mingyuan said. “I sent people out to check, and there was no trace. It was like a total of 50,000 people disappeared from the world. But I’m sure they must still be in the Jing Kingdom, just waiting. Following Feng Chilie’s order and then launched a counterattack.”

“Unlikely,” Feng Mingzhen said, “My dear, if you think about it, these 50,000 people will still have to eat and drink even if they hide, and the money will definitely not be enough to support them in the war.”

.

This was indeed the truth.

The 50,000 men of the Wolf Eagle Cavalry must have sufficient food and grass if they want to launch a counterattack, but after such a long time, their provisions were definitely insufficient, and Tan Chuyan’s Ling-han Pavilion couldn’t provide covert assistance.

After his identity was exposed, all Lingh-an Pavilions in the Four Kingdoms were sealed.

Even if he were not apprehended, it would still be difficult. He had already utilized all the efforts of the entire cabinet to aid Feng Chilie with disaster relief, and he would not have any spare resources.

Despite this, Feng Mingyuan still believed that the Wolf Eagle Cavalry could be mobilized, especially coupled with the letter written by Tan Chuyan that night; Feng Mingyuan could not believe that he would give up so easily.

Feng Mingyuan sat up straight and touched the armor: “Auntie, let’s make a bet. The Wolf Eagle Cavalry will definitely mobilize. Tan Chuyan will find a way to procure provisions for them.”

“If you want to bet, then the old woman shall accompany the queen,” Feng Mingzhen said. “I bet he can’t. The Wolf Eagle Cavalry won’t move, and even if he does, the eldest princess will surely intervene.”

“Then, Auntie, I may truly lose everything. Judging from Baili Ronghua’s character, if she could have acted, she would have already. Why would she allow Concubine Chun’s son to continue as a puppet king?” Feng Mingyuan slowly closed her eyes, sighed, and said, “I suspect Baili Ronghua is in despair. We seem destined to lose control of Jing Kingdom.”

“But it doesn’t matter,” Feng Mingyuan said optimistically. “If Tan Chuyan desires Jing Kingdom, let him have the kingdom. Cui Yuanqing is our primary target. Once Cui Yuanqing is eliminated, we can deal with these two.”

This was the only choice at the moment. If they wanted to completely eliminate Cui Yuanqing, they really could only negotiate with Tan Chuyan and the others. They compromised, otherwise, they would lack strength.

But…

Feng Mingzhen asked, “What are you going to do then?”

“What else can we do?” Feng Mingyuan said helplessly. “We can only get rid of them. If Feng Chilie learns that his mother’s death and my involvement are related, then he will definitely become Dayong Dynasty’s fierce enemy. I cannot leave such a significant threat to Chengzhi. Even if it requires using all the strength of the Feng family, we must eliminate them. Let’s utilize it now.”

Although the Feng family was renowned for its navy, its infantry and cavalry were also formidable.

Feng Mingzhen frowned. “Her Majesty, if we confront them head-on, the Feng family’s centuries-old foundation may be destroyed!”

“What I want is to dismantle the Feng family,” Feng Mingyuan suddenly opened her eyes, her gaze sharp. “The Feng family has grown too powerful in recent years. If I hadn’t controlled the Feng family’s military order, those youngsters in the family would have rebelled.”

The first-generation head of the Feng family was a woman, so the military order was passed down from female to female. It was not passed down to a male, and Feng Mingyuan was a direct descendant, so the military talisman naturally passed to her.

Feng Mingyuan lowered her eyes and looked at her own shadow, murmuring, “Auntie, you should understand me. If I don’t do this, no one will be able to restrain the Feng family after I’m gone, and Chengzhi’s throne will soon be in jeopardy.”

“I can’t just watch Cui Yuanqing destroy Dayong Dynasty, nor can I let Dayong Dynasty fall into the hands of the Feng family,” Feng Mingyuan’s voice choked. “So, I can only do this, to clear all obstacles from Chengzhi’s path and ultimately dismantle our maternal clan with my own hands.”

“Her Majesty…” Feng Mingzhen frowned. “Is it really worth it?”

“It is worth it, of course it is worth it,” Feng Mingyuan said firmly. “As long as Dayong Dynasty can reunify, as long as I can protect this country for him, I will not hesitate to bear all the sins.”

“Auntie,” Feng Mingyuan took Feng Mingzhen’s hand. “Will you always be with me?”

“…” Feng Mingzhen hesitated for a moment. “Yes, I will always be with you.”
