The Concubine Strikes Back: The Marquis Insists on Me to Be His Wife

Su Qing didn't dare to respond. If she took this job, she would have to make everyone in the harem pregnant. This might bring her too much trouble and the loss would outweigh the gain!

"If the princess wants me to go see him, I can go, but... I'm not good at men's diseases, so I'm afraid I'll make a misdiagnosis." Su Qing didn't know if the princess would understand what she said.

"I'm a little tired, so I'll go back home first. As for this... let's talk about it later!" Princess Shaohua said, then she got up and left.

Seeing Princess Shaohua walking away, Su Qing called Wu Yanran.

Wu Yanran walked in, "Does Madam have any instructions?"

"Go quickly and dispose of all the food you have eaten today. Don't keep anything. Remember?" Su Qing knew that Wu Yanran was smart and understood everything immediately.

"Don't worry, ma'am. There won't be even any leftovers." After saying that, he quickly ran out.

In the other side of the military camp, a hurried spy came to report in an urgent voice, "General, the crown prince of Jin has returned to Jin and is reorganizing his troops. He is likely to make a comeback!"

When Jiang Weiyang heard the news, his face became solemn. He did not dare to delay for even a second and hurriedly rode his horse into the palace to meet the emperor.

After meeting the emperor, Jiang Weiyang bowed respectfully and then informed the emperor of the urgent matter truthfully.

When the emperor heard this, he frowned, felt something was wrong, and his eyes revealed deep worry.

Afterwards, the emperor solemnly called several of his most trusted ministers to discuss the matter in the court. The ministers expressed their opinions and the atmosphere was tense and solemn.

Finally, after a heated discussion, everyone unanimously decided that they could no longer sit there and wait for death, but must take the initiative to attack in order to have a chance to defeat the enemy and win.

The emperor sat on the dragon throne with a solemn expression. After thinking for a long time, he finally said, "Jiang Weiyang, listen to my orders!"

Jiang Weiyang immediately stepped forward, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully: "I am here."

The emperor's eyes were firm, his voice was loud and majestic: "Jiang Weiyang, now that the Jin Kingdom is invading, our country is in danger.

I grant you the power to mobilize troops and appoint you as a first-class general to protect the country. I have great confidence in your bravery and wisdom, and now I order you to immediately mobilize your troops and set out to defeat the enemy and enhance the prestige of our country. I am waiting for your victory report in the palace! "

"I, Jiang Weiyang, will obey your command and fulfill my mission with all my heart!" Jiang Weiyang spoke sincerely, his eyes full of determination and loyalty.

"General Lin, come forward and listen to my orders." The emperor's majestic voice sounded again.

Hearing this, General Lin knelt down quickly, his movements were swift and neat, and he bowed his head and said, "I am here."

The emperor looked solemn, and every word was sonorous and powerful: "I appoint you as the second-class general of national defense, and the deputy general of Jiang Weiyang. You should set out with Jiang Weiyang, work together, and recover the lost territory of the Jin Kingdom. You must live up to the mission."

"I obey your order and am willing to die for Your Majesty!" General Lin spoke in a loud and firm voice.

"You two must gather your troops and set out immediately. There must be no mistakes!" The emperor waved his hand and issued the final order.

"The minister obeys the order."

"The minister obeys the order."

Jiang Weiyang and General Lin took the order and withdrew.

After leaving the palace, Jiang Weiyang frowned. After thinking for a while, he ordered Rufeng to go back home and inform Su Qing.

As soon as he received the order, he whipped his horse as fast as he could, with the horse's hooves raising clouds of dust. He rushed back to the Marquis' Mansion and told Su Qing everything.

When Su Qing heard this, her face was instantly filled with worry. She immediately asked Shui Lian and Ling'er to pack up, and she took Ruxue and Rumei to the palace to meet the emperor.

As the emperor was pacing in front of his desk, thinking, Eunuch Li stepped forward lightly, bowed slightly, and said, "Your Majesty, Madam Su Qing of the young marquis wishes to see you."

"Oh? What is she doing here at this time? Let her in! I want to see what she means!" The emperor stopped and showed a hint of confusion on his face.

"Ask the Marquis's wife Su Qing to come to the palace~~~" As Eunuch Li's shrill voice rang out, the long tail tone echoed in the palace.

Su Qing walked into the hall with a dignified look, and quickly bowed, saying in a clear and respectful voice: "Your Highness, I, Su Qing, pay my respects to you. May Your Highness live long and happy lives."

"No need to be so polite! Do you have something to ask me?" The emperor sat back on the dragon throne and looked at Su Qing with a scrutinizing look.

"Your Majesty, I would like to request permission to join the army. Please agree." Su Qing raised her head slightly and looked at the emperor with a firm gaze.

"Nonsense! This is absolute nonsense! You are just a woman, why are you accompanying the army? Don't disturb the morale of the army!" The emperor slammed the armrest of the dragon throne, his face darkened, and he shouted loudly.

"Your Majesty, I am proficient in medicine. When two armies fight, there will definitely be casualties. I am willing to accompany you as a military doctor and do my best to treat the wounded and reduce the pain of the soldiers. Please allow me to accompany you. Please agree." Su Qing spoke earnestly, her eyes full of sincerity, and she bowed again.

The emperor paced in front of the desk with his hands behind his back, his brows furrowed and his face solemn. For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire palace fell into a suffocating silence.

Seeing the emperor's hesitation, Su Qing was secretly happy and felt that there was hope for her to join the army, so she spoke up again and said, "Your Majesty, I can not only cure diseases and save lives, but I also have a lot of experience in preparing medicines and making poisons.

If the two armies are at war, and we can use the poison or medicine I made to defeat the enemy without sacrificing a single soldier, wouldn't that be a great strategy? I hope the emperor will allow me to join the army and do my best to defend the country."

The emperor was slightly moved when he heard Su Qing's words. After a moment's silence, he said, "You are a woman. You are going to join the army. The journey is difficult and dangerous. The battlefield is even more unpredictable. Are you really not afraid?"

Su Qing straightened her back and replied with a firm look: "Your Majesty, the country is in crisis, how can I be afraid of death? If I can serve the country and protect the peace of our people, I will not be afraid even if I die."

The emperor nodded slightly, as if he was moved by Su Qing's determination: "Forget it, I will allow you to follow the army, but you must be careful and not make any mistakes."

Su Qing was overjoyed and immediately knelt down to thank him: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely live up to your grace and do my best."

"Retreat and prepare! Move forward with the army."

After Su Qing left, the emperor looked at her leaving back and sighed: "This woman is brave and resourceful, proficient in medicine, loyal and courageous, she is truly a blessing to the country."

After Su Qing returned home, she began to prepare the things needed for the army.

Jiang Weiyang was touched and worried when he learned that Su Qing asked for permission to join the army. He knew that Su Qing was worried about him, so she did so. But he admired Su Qing more, and he didn't expect her to be able to do this.

Su Qing knew that this trip was dangerous, so after bidding farewell to the old marquis and the old lady, she hugged Jiang Nian and Jiang Yan.

Then he took Ruxue and Rumei to the military camp.
