The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!

Chapter 1316: Chapter 1311: Blood Battle at Ruo Shui Pass

Ye Mian immediately expressed, “I will send someone right away to block this road, to prevent the poison corpse from entering the city and attacking.”

Ye Qingru, tall and brave in battle, immediately saluted Chu Yihan with a fist, “Emperor, I am willing to lead the troops to attack Qiongzhou City through this passage and annihilate the rebels in one fell swoop.”

Compared to his father who had defended the city for many years, he was more belligerent.

Ye Qingyi stood behind her father and brother, her cherry lips tightly pressed. If it weren’t for the excessive affection from her father and brother, she would not have learned martial arts since childhood; she could have been holding a spear in the battle just like the valiant female general Lin Sisi!

She could have shown her mettle in front of Chu Yihan and gained his appreciation.

Standing in front of Chu Yihan now, she felt immense regret, but she quickly devised a plan and spoke softly with a bow, “Emperor, your heavenly grace is boundless. Although I am incapable of martial arts, I can still manage the transportation of military supplies for my father and brother, ensuring that our soldiers can fight bravely without worries.”

Ye Qingru turned back, surprised by his sister’s thoughtful offer. Being usually pampered, was she really thinking of helping them?

However, Ye Mian was pleased, “If the soldiers in the military can also enjoy the taste of Qingyi’s cooking, I believe they would be even more motivated.”

His youngest daughter was beautiful like a delicate flower, and she had enviable culinary skills. As her father, he was proud.

But Chu Yihan seemed uninterested and said coldly, “There’s no need to rush. We will set an ambush in the passage, and tomorrow, we will face the Qiongzhou army.”

The poison corpses tonight were a disaster; if he had not been there, the scenario tonight would have been entirely different. Tomorrow the Qiongzhou army would advance aggressively, catching Ruo Shui area off guard. Tonight’s operations weren’t urgent but were instead to set the stage for tomorrow’s battle.

Chu Yihan summoned Ye Mian and his son to the military camp late at night to arrange for tomorrow’s battle. Ye Qingru, worried about Ye Qingyi’s safety going back alone late at night, quietly asked Mo Qi, “Could you please trouble the commander to escort my sister back? Qingyi has never been out so late before and must be scared.”

After Mo Qi confirmed with Chu Yihan, who nodded thinking of Ye Qingyi’s role in locating the secret passage and then instructed, “Make sure Miss Ye is safely escorted back home.”

Mo Qi accepted the order, “Yes.”

Seeing Chu Yihan walk away with steady steps, his upright figure casting a captivating shadow under the moonlight, touched her heart, and she became momentarily dazed.

“Miss Ye?”

Mo Qi called her twice.

Ye Qingyi promptly came to her senses and very politely bowed to Mo Qi, Chu Yihan’s attendant, “Many thanks, Lord Commander.”

“No need for courtesy.” Mo Qi did not think much and escorted her back home.

Upon leaving, Ye Qingyi repeatedly expressed her gratitude and even sent someone to get loads of snacks for him to take back, saying that he and the Emperor were working so hard fighting bravely and ought to nourish themselves well.

Although she didn’t say it overtly, Mo Qi, carrying the two boxes of food, somehow felt something was odd.

In the main tent of the military camp, after finishing discussions with the Ye father and son, they went back to prepare their troops. Mo Qi, entering with the food boxes, suddenly remembered, “Emperor, you have been busy all-day and haven’t eaten anything. Please have some food.”

Otherwise, when the empress visits and sees the Emperor looking famished, she would surely worry.

Chu Yihan also felt hungry and allowed Mo Qi to bring the food boxes over. While inspecting the border map, he began eating. After a couple of bites, he suddenly asked, “At this hour, where did you find this food?”

And how was it all still warm?

Mo Qi replied, “It was given to me by Miss Ye from the Ye Family, saying she hoped I would take care of my health along with the emperor.”

Although it was common in the military camp for Chu Yihan to not sweat the small stuff and to allow others to sit and eat with him, his expression changed drastically as soon as he heard those words, and he put down his chopsticks, “You will eat all of this, not leaving a single grain behind.”

Mo Qi: ???

Emperor, these two lunch boxes clearly aren’t meant for one person’s portion!

What if he is stuffed to death?

Chu Yihan punished him to eat alone inside the tent, not allowing him to leave until he finished everything, while he had the military camp’s cooks make him a simple meal.

Late at night, Chu Yihan didn’t want to trouble many people, so he had the cooks prepare something simple, which was much more modest compared to what Mo Qi was eating.

As Mo Qi was eating this delicate yet overwhelming meal, and looking at what Chu Yihan was eating, he couldn’t understand why he was being punished for no apparent reason.

By the time he had almost eaten himself silly, Chu Yihan elegantly put down his chopsticks and whispered a warning to him, “If you dare bring anything given by another woman in front of me again, whatever you bring back, you will finish it all!”

Mo Qi: !!!

He quickly knelt down, “I will obey the command!”

Bringing something from Ye Qingyi… Oh no, bringing something from any other woman, he must be foolish!

Sigh…

He was really about to burst!

He pleaded for the empress to come quickly, for with the empress here, no other woman would have the chance to send food to the emperor.

Admittedly, the empress’s cooking skills…

Mo Qi burped, well, the empress’s cooking was unlikely to end up in his mouth anyway, as long as the emperor enjoyed it.

On the walls of Qiongzhou City, the rough shouts blew, led by a figure clad in red armor at the forefront, followed by ten thousand soldiers rushing out of the city, hooves thundering like drums, their noise nearly bursting people’s eardrums.

Xin Yi, holding a red tassel spear, raced at the front, directly attacked the scouts of Ruo Shui Pass, breaking through two defense lines and charging towards the gate, shouting as she galloped, “Charge! Capture Ruo Shui Pass, those who kill the primary and secondary commanders will be crowned and rewarded!”

Behind her, the Qiongzhou military’s combat spirit soared, each one as ferocious as a wild beast unleashed. Ahead of their formation, there was also a group of grotesque creatures, also armed but without horses, yet running faster than horses and emitting ghostly shrieks, swarming like dark clouds toward the troops led by Ye Qingru.

Although Chu Yihan had taught Ye Qingru that cutting off these zombie-like creatures’ heads would keep them from rising again, his army still suffered significantly, as the horses and men bitten by these creatures would immediately contract the deadly poison, forcing them to engage with extreme caution to avoid injuring themselves, making it a bitter fight.

Xin Yi split her forces into three routes, sending the zombie-like creatures to attack the south city gate, which lacked a moat for protection, while she led her troops against the main east city gate, and also sent a thousand men through a secret passage entered by the creatures to infiltrate the city, aiming to capture Ruo Shui Pass in one fell swoop.

But as she charged toward the moat, she found the person leading the defense was not Ye Mian of Ruo Shui Pass, but a man in silvery white armor, resembling a god, holding a longsword that radiated cold light, with the stench of blood permeating the air.

The man’s features were handsome, with sharp eyebrows, a prominent nose, and a gaze exuding a supreme majesty that was utterly breathtaking. His army behind him resembled wolves on the plains, their eyes shining with the sharpest gleam.

Xin Yi had a foreboding feeling.
