Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife
Editor:Â EndlessFantasy Translation
Ye Muyuâs heart softened when she saw her like this. âMother, Iâll be fine. Iâm smart, so Iâll be fine.â
âIâm just a little hungry. We were in a hurry and didnât bring much food.â
âMother will cook for you now.â
Old Madam Ye heard her and saw her pale face. She knew that she was starving. She quickly went to ask Ye Dejiang to bring some vermicelli from the carriage. She went into the kitchen and quickly cooked a bowl.
Su Mei and the others were also starving, but compared to losing their lives, this was nothing.
Old Madam Ye saw this and simply cooked a pot for everyone to eat.
âMother, I went to buy a chicken to make some soup for Little Sister.â Madam Han came in from outside and said happily.
Old Madam Ye was also happy. âQuick, go and boil the soup.â
In the house, Ye Muyu slowly finished the bowl of vermicelli and felt alive again. The feeling of hunger was really uncomfortable.
âMother, Big Brother, how is the situation in the county?â â And my brother. I donât know where he is.â Ye Muyu immediately thought of Ye Zhao.
âLittle Sister, donât worry about me. Little Brother has made a contribution this time, but heâs still locked up in the barracks,â Ye Hao said as he heard some news from a familiar soldier.
âWhat happened?â Hearing this, Ye Muyu knew that there was a story behind it.
âIt was Little Brother who stumbled upon an underground canal in the county town. He thought it was a dog hole and climbed out. He ran to the military camp to report.â
âGeneral Shen did not believe him at the beginning because the reason why the county town could be attacked so quickly was because there were traitors in the military camp.â Ye Hao was very angry when he said this.
No wonder, Ye Muyu thought. If it were not for the traitor, things would not have gone so smoothly.
âThatâs why Little Brother has not been released yet. However, after the county town is cleaned up, General Shen will release him. You can rest assured about this.â
Ye Muyu was not worried. As long as Ye Zhao was fine, it did not matter if he had done anything.
âWho is that traitor? Did something happen at the Marquisâ residence?â Ye Muyu asked.
Ye Haoâs expression turned ugly. âItâs the person beside the Young General, Zhang Miao. You should know him.â
Ye Muyuâs breathing stopped. It really was him.
âThen, the princessâ¦â
âThe princess is injured, and so is Marquis Xian Yun.â Ye Hao actually did not know much.
âWhat about Zhang Miao?â
âHeâs already been killed.â Ye Hao curled his lips. He did not feel that the other party died unjustly at all. He betrayed Great Chu and betrayed the military order. He was an orphan. If not for this, his whole family would definitely be implicated.
Ye Muyu heaved a sigh of relief. âBig Brother, are you guys alright?â
âYes, we were in the military camp. No matter how powerful the Luo Kingdomâs people are, they cannot defeat the Shen familyâs army. Thatâs why they thought of a way to first control the county town and capture the people of the Marquis residence to threaten the General.â
âIf it wasnât for Little Brother discovering that secret passage, Iâm afraid the entire battle would have been in a stalemate.â
Ye Muyu also heaved a sigh of relief. If she continued to endure, she would not be able to hold on any longer. At that time, she would have to come out and be captured by the other party.
âHowever, many of the Luo Kingdomâs soldiers left through the secret passage and were not caught.â
âWith this incident, General Shen found out that there are actually so many secret tunnels under Luoping County that lead to the pass outside the city. They climbed up from the dangerous peak.â
Actually, Luoping Pass was not easy to defend.
Although there were mountains all around, after controlling the pass, there would be no passage between the two countries.
