The cruel little princess

Chapter 71 General Shen, a man of great loyalty and righteousness!

"But You...Miss Shen is here?" When His Royal Highness Prince Jin saw An Sanshiba, he almost let the cat out of the bag. He immediately changed the subject and asked if Miss Shen was here.

An Sanshiba took a quick look and, seeing that almost everyone who had a say in the military camp was there, he immediately gave them a vivid lecture...er, he recounted Miss Shen's great achievements! He emphasized Miss Shen's foresight and her ability to handle things with ease!

After hearing the entire story, Lieutenant General Zhang was still open-mouthed in surprise, "Oh my God, my little niece and just a dozen of you dared to break into the Qinglong Kingdom military camp?! You are... too..." He couldn't find the right words to describe them.

"How reckless!" General Shen was furious. What if something really happened to his daughter? Would he still be alive?!

"General Shen, please don't be so angry! Miss Shen has made great contributions! This is the saying that a general's father is a tiger and his daughter is a dog! After I withdraw my troops and return to the camp today, I will write a memorial to ask for credit for the Rui'an County Princess!" His Royal Highness Prince Jin was worried that General Shen would punish Shen Youyou in anger, but this was not acceptable! Although he was also very angry that she put herself in danger, all they had to do was believe in her! Be her solid backing. They also believed that she had the ability to remain calm in the face of danger and use her intelligence to solve the urgent problem for the army.

Didn't you pretend to be my soldier and come here to burn my food? Then I will pretend to be your soldier and return to report after completing my mission. Then I will take the opportunity to penetrate the enemy camp and burn your food as well. The other soldiers all applauded and celebrated. Yes! This little niece is really a general's father and daughter! And it has to be His Royal Highness Prince Jin. He is well-read and has a lot of knowledge. What he says is reasonable!

Originally, General Shen was only concerned about his daughter's safety. He didn't mind anything else, like the notion that women should stay home, take care of their husbands and children, and not fight on the battlefield. He didn't have such pedantic beliefs. He was just worried about what would happen if his daughter got injured in the enemy camp? What if she got captured? What if... Oh, it made him so upset. But when his mother heard what Prince Jin said, it all seemed to sink in. He should be proud of his daughter! Proud!

"Then where is she now?" General Shen asked hurriedly, eager to know how his daughter was doing. Hearing others say it a thousand times was not as good as seeing it with his own eyes.

"General, the young lady should be in the wounded camp in the rear." An Sanshiba estimated their speed.

"Come here!" General Shen shouted majestically.

"I'm here!" General Shen's personal guard, Wu, came over.

"Go and invite the young lady over here quickly!" he gave the order directly.

"Yes!" Guard Wu took the order and left.

So, upon arriving at the wounded camp, Shen Youyou noticed that there weren't many wounded, and few were seriously injured. Everyone was doing their job, and the rescue team was methodically moving between the battlefield and the rear. In pairs or trios, they'd seek cover when they saw their comrades injured, waiting for an opportunity to rush forward and carry the injured down. Of course, this only applied to the comrades in the far-flung areas. In the close-quarters, where the fighting was more direct and physical, Shen Youyou made no demands, striving to save as many lives as possible while preserving his own. However, the rescue team's unyielding nature resurfaced. Several, relying on their own experience in battle, rushed to the front lines in groups of three or five, carrying down any injured comrades they saw, often taking their own lives. After all, the training given to them by the secret guards was far beyond what ordinary soldiers could match. Instead, they felt that it was easier to survive on the battlefield than to escape from the hands of the secret guards... It can only be said that this was a blessing in disguise.

Shen Youyou took a quick look and found that none of the injuries were too serious. This was all thanks to the rescue team, who had taken them away from the battlefield before they suffered any secondary injuries, so the casualties in this battle were not heavy. Just as Shen Youyou was about to sew up a young soldier who had been stabbed in the chest, Guard Wu happened to find her.

"Miss, the general invites you!" said Guard Wu.

"Uncle Wu?" Shen Youyou turned around and looked at him. "How did my father know I was here?" She was a little puzzled. Normally, her father was in charge at the front and wouldn't pay attention to what was happening back there. How did he know as soon as she arrived?

"Miss, let's talk as we walk." Guard Wu led her forward. Along the way, they saw the ambulance team members carrying stretchers back and forth to transport the wounded. When everyone saw Shen Youyou, they smiled from the bottom of their hearts and greeted, "Hello, Miss!"

"Hello miss!"

"Miss, why are you here? The fighting is intense up ahead. Miss, please return to the barracks quickly! We will definitely protect you!"

"Yes, Miss! It's dangerous here. You'd better return to the barracks as soon as possible!"

They all sincerely care about Shen Youyou.

Shen Youyou smiled and nodded. She'd been in the barracks for so long, and whether she was dressed as a man or a woman, which soldier wouldn't recognize her? Plus, she'd already given way to them on the side of the road, and even after a brief encounter, those spies hadn't recognized her. So, she wasn't wrong to think they had problems.

"Uncle Wu, what's going on? How did my father know I was here? What does he want to see me about?" Shen Youyou asked anxiously.

"Just now, the military camp reported that three granaries were burned down by spies from the Qinglong Kingdom."

"Well, we were in the barracks at the time. That spy was truly despicable. Not only did he want to burn down the granary, he also wanted to take me hostage!" Shen Youyou said angrily. "But what does that have to do with me? I just came to see how the rescue team was doing. After all, this wasn't just ordinary training, it was real combat. I wanted to see if there was anything I needed to pay attention to or avoid," Shen Youyou replied truthfully.

"But did you go somewhere else before coming here?" Guard Wu teased her deliberately.

"...So, how did my dad know about this? Who told on me?" Shen Youyou pouted angrily, looking like an angry goldfish.

"No matter who said it, young lady should not disregard her own safety. Young lady, you know that all the general wants in this life is to make your life smooth. Although the general has been stationed at the border for many years and has never often returned to visit you, he has always been thinking about you. The general's salary is not much, only a few hundred taels of silver a year. Even the properties of the general's mansion in the capital were set up by the general to accommodate the old and weak soldiers and those widows. The things the general captured on the battlefield were also exchanged for money to subsidize us. But the general never forgot the young lady at home. Every year, he saved and saved, saving from every penny, and sent someone to send back 1,000 taels of silver for the young lady's food, drink and spending expenses. It's just that the general thought too well of his brothers, thinking that they would take good care of the young lady after receiving the money, but he never expected to be deceived by them for so many years! "Guardian Wu turned around, looked into Shen Youyou's eyes and said, "The young lady has suffered a lot over the years!" He continued, "That's why you can't act rashly. If something happens to you, how will the general live in the future!"

Shen Youyou was moved by what she heard. This cheap daddy was really... really loyal and righteous! The families of those soldiers who followed Daddy to fight and were injured and disabled, received pensions but were unwilling to accept them because they were disabled and were a burden to the family. It was Daddy who gave them a place to settle down. The widows of those soldiers who lost their husbands and fathers were also supported by Daddy to continue living. He would rather save money himself and arrange all the affairs of his followers after their death and solve their concerns. Who wouldn't love such a general? Who wouldn't respect such a general?

No wonder she always thought her father was broke. It turned out he was truly clean-handed! Luckily, she had signed a contract with Liu Jianye. She would find time to make more ointments and beauty creams, and sell them. Then she would have enough money to continue supporting her father's business!

Shen Youyou looked very confident, as if she could take out 100,000 taels of silver notes and throw them to her old father for him to spend as he pleased. With this good mood, she came to her father.

"Youyou! My daughter! You've suffered!" General Shen rushed over as soon as he laid eyes on Shen Youyou. He circled Shen Youyou carefully several times before finally confirming that his precious daughter was indeed unharmed. He always believed that seeing is believing when it comes to his daughter. Now that he had finally seen his daughter, he finally felt relieved.
