The Rebirth of a Daughter: My Lord, I Will Never Be a Concubine

The soldier tried his best, but he couldn't pull the object away, as if an invisible force held it firmly in place. Gradually, an uncontrollable rage welled up within him, spreading rapidly like a surging wave. His eyes widened in anger, veins bulging on his forehead, and he stretched out his strong, powerful hands, ready to strike the old man hard.

However, at this critical moment, a graceful figure swooped in like lightning. In the blink of an eye, a pair of slender, delicate hands, like iron clamps, firmly grasped the falling hand. Everyone looked closely and saw that it was Su Yanhua, dressed in military uniform and looking heroic! Her appearance was like a breeze, leaving everyone present stunned.

Su Yanhua's face was stern, and she opened her red lips and said coldly: "Your martial arts are a weapon used to fight against the enemy, and it is definitely not a weapon to kill innocent people!" Her voice was crisp and pleasant, but the majesty and rebuke contained in it were unquestionable.

After saying that, Su Yanhua released the soldier's hands and swung them fiercely. The soldier's body was thrown out and fell to the ground.

Hearing the ridicule around him, the soldier concealed all his dissatisfaction on his face, stood aside and said nothing.

Su Yanhua walked towards the old man, lifted up his stall, touched her body, and an embarrassed look appeared on her face.

Forgot, she never carries money in her pocket!

The old man waved his hand and stopped him, saying, "General, no need, no need..."

Before he could finish his words, a big hand appeared in their sight, with a silver ingot in the palm.

Su Yanhua looked over and saw that the owner of those hands was Mo Cerong, who was dressed in black military uniform. His majestic eyes became gentle.

"take it!"

The old man took it embarrassedly, his face full of gratitude.

"Thank you, General, and thank you, Your Majesty!"

Seeing that he accepted it, Su Yanhua smiled and was about to turn around when a voice came from behind.

"Miss-"

The familiar voice made Su Yanhua stop in her tracks. She turned around in disbelief. Cui'er, Suihe and Liu Li were running towards her from a distance.

Cui'er walked forward and hugged Su Yanhua tightly, her little face full of tears.

"Miss, you scared Cui'er to death!"

Sui He's face was also filled with tears, and she called out softly, "Sister, where have you been? We've been looking for you for a long time!"

Su Yanhua pushed Cui'er away and asked in confusion, "Why are you here?"

Sui He and Liu Li looked at each other, knelt down, and pleaded, "Miss Su, I brought Sui He here after hearing the news. I hope Miss Su can take us in and let me join the army."

Su Yanhua asked: "Liu Li, where are your relatives?"

A hint of coldness flashed across Liu Li's face. "It's better not to have relatives like that. After the incident at Shengxian Manor was exposed, they were taken away and convicted. Sui He and I are now homeless. And you, our benefactor, Miss Su, please let us continue to follow you."

Sui He pleaded, "Yes, sister, let us stay with you."

Su Yanhua's face flashed with a trace of entanglement. To be honest, she also wanted Liu Li to stay by her side. Liu Li had a good foundation in martial arts and was an honest and dutiful person. He would be of great use on the battlefield, but...

"In view of your integrity, I hereby allow Liu Li to join the army!"

Suddenly, Mo Cerong's calm words came to my ears.

Su Yanhua stared at him quietly, her gaze like the depths of a lake, making it difficult to glimpse the emotions contained within. However, in just a brief moment, she quickly restrained all her emotions, as if burying them deep in the depths of her heart.

In the end, she subconsciously held Cui'er's hand tightly, with such strength that it seemed as if she wanted to convey something unspeakable in this way.

Mounting her steed again, Su Yanhua stood tall and straight, like a pine tree. Following her movements, the military procession behind her began to slowly move forward, the sound of horse hooves echoing across the empty land, resonating with a distinctly crisp and heavy rhythm.

At this moment, Su Yanhua suddenly turned around and his eyes fell directly on the tall and sturdy city wall.

The city wall before her was like an impassable natural barrier, majestic and impenetrable. Not only did it block the glaring sunlight, adding a touch of shade to the area where Su Yanhua stood, but it also served as an invisible barrier, effectively blocking out her inner emotional fluctuations.

Those surging thoughts, tangled and complicated knots in the heart, as well as deep attachment and reluctance, were all ruthlessly blocked out by this city wall.

"This time... I hope my decision is really the right one!" Su Yanhua muttered silently in her heart, her eyes a little confused, but more of a determination.

Nalan Yanyu, take care!

.........

The Yunqin army marched non-stop for three or four days, and the soldiers were already exhausted and out of breath. Although the expedition to Yan State was imminent, Su Yanhua still ordered the army to stop and set up camp here.

Yun Qin's army was very large. After setting up camp, the cooks began to prepare dinner, and the soldiers fell to the ground, drinking, chatting and laughing. It was a happy scene.

After Cui'er made the bed, she stood up and looked at Su Yanhua's back facing the light, feeling a little worried.

"Miss, the bedding is ready, go and have a rest." Cui'er said: "You haven't had a good rest these days-"

Su Yanhua nodded: "Okay, go eat, don't worry about me!"

"Suihe has gone to get the food and should be back soon." Cui'er poured a glass of water for Su Yanhua.

Speak of the devil, and he appears. The curtain of the tent was lifted. The two looked over and saw Sui He walking in angrily, his delicate little face frozen.

"I'm so angry!" he muttered.

"What's wrong? Didn't you go to get food?" Cui'er asked in confusion.

When he said this, Suihe started to spew out all his grievances.

"I went over to get some rations, but the soldier saw me and said, 'Don't feed useless people with rations.' I said I was getting them for General Su, but he said in a disdainful tone, 'Who is General Su? Didn't General Su die a long time ago?' Everyone burst into laughter and chaos ensued."

After saying this, Cui'er's eyes flashed with anger: "This is simply too much. How can they be so disrespectful to the young lady?"

The two looked at Su Yanhua with some worry in their eyes.

Su Yanhua stared into the distance with an expressionless face. She looked casual and natural on the outside, but the coldness in her eyes became more and more obvious.

She knew full well that ever since she had assumed the position of Vanguard General, the soldiers had never truly obeyed her. After all, she was just a seemingly weak woman. How could she lead an army in battle? And what worthy position did she hold?

Everyone must have been filled with contempt and dissatisfaction towards her, some even planning to give her a warning so she wouldn't give up. However, little did they know that even when she resolutely volunteered to the Emperor, she had already set her sights on the position of Vanguard General!

Anyone who dared to flaunt their power in her presence was undoubtedly tired of living! Today, in front of the entire army, she would resolutely rectify this unhealthy trend in the military!
