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

At the same time, the army fell into chaos again. Many soldiers outside the logistics tent were sitting on the ground drinking and eating, looking very happy.

One of the soldiers suddenly shouted, "You are not a member of our army, so you should not eat our food!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked over, wanting to take a closer look at who was being targeted. Seeing the straight-standing figure with the unfamiliar yet resolute face, wasn't it Liu Li who had caught up to join the army that day?

Liu Li said indignantly: "The general has already let me join the army. Now I am a soldier like you. Why can't I eat the dry rations in the army?"

The soldier was the one who had bumped into the old man's arrogance. He smiled disdainfully and said, "Who said that? Who allowed it? I didn't hear the general agree to let you join the army. Besides, what kind of general is Su Yanhua? The real general is only Prince Mo!"

Every gesture he made was filled with contempt for Su Yanhua.

After he finished speaking, the soldiers eating below burst into laughter, as if it was a very funny thing, and there was no sign that they were truly submissive to Su Yanhua.

Hearing his disrespectful tone towards Su Yanhua, Liu Li's eyes were completely filled with anger.

"No matter who becomes the general, it's not your place as a mere soldier to make irresponsible remarks. We are here to fight, not to scheme like little girls. If this is your ideal, I advise you to go back to your dream of spring and autumn with your tail between your legs. Stop embarrassing the Yunqin soldiers here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers below burst into laughter, the sound was sharp and piercing. As the soldiers listened, their anger suddenly rose. Looking at Liu Li's smug look, their minds were instantly controlled by anger, and they raised their fists and punched Liu Li.

Liu Li was naturally also aroused with anger, and the two men started fighting here. When the soldiers next to them saw this scene, they looked very excited and shouted to cheer them on.

When Su Yanhua arrived, she saw this extremely crazy scene. She felt a chill in her heart, turned around and jumped up, separating the two people who were fighting. Her cold tone shocked the whole audience.

"What are you doing?"

"Is the military a place for you to have fun?"

Seeing Su Yanhua's cold expression, everyone dared not speak and stood still.

The soldier was clearly enraged, and with a broken jar in his hand, he taunted, "Don't act so arrogant here! This army isn't the place for a woman like you to enter!"

He still remembered that Su Yanhua had humiliated him in front of all the people a few days ago, so of course he would not be nice to Su Yanhua.

Liu Li was provoked by this sentence and was about to step forward, but was stopped by Su Yanhua.

Su Yanhua looked at him calmly, obviously recognizing him. From what she said to him, he should not be convinced by her at all. In that case, then let's fight for real and not play any tricks.

"What's wrong with being a woman? Yun Qin doesn't have a rule that prohibits women from joining the army, right?"

"You are a noble lady from Lingcheng, and you only know how to embroider and drink tea. Do you understand what's happening on the battlefield? Besides, what benefits have you given to the emperor? The position of general is obviously given to the prince, why should you, a noble lady from Lingcheng, sit on it! In the hearts of us in the army, you are not worthy of the position!" The soldiers' eyes flashed with disdain. A mere woman should become an appendage of them, the men. What is she showing off here?

Su Yanhua never expected that the noble status that all women in the world pursued would be devalued to nothing in the army. It was really sad.

She looked at all the standing soldiers and asked, "Are you dissatisfied with me? Do you think I have no ability and why I should be your general?"

Everyone looked at each other, their gazes conveying a complex mix of emotions, but no one uttered a single word. At this moment, silence seemed to become an invisible pressure, weighing heavily on everyone's heart. The final outcome, even without a single word, was crystal clear.

In fact, as soon as they learned that their general was actually a noblewoman from Lingcheng, the soldiers had already felt resentful. In this world where men were respected and strength and courage were valued, allowing a delicate woman to surpass them was simply a fantasy!

Especially given their inherent impression of the noble ladies of Lingcheng—those pampered, weak, and incapable of carrying a heavy load—how could they possibly be capable of galloping on the battlefield and commanding a battle? Wasn't that playing with the safety of the country and the lives of the soldiers?

However, despite the public's anger and doubts, no one dared to stand up and express their dissatisfaction in person. After all, no one wanted to be the first to stand up and challenge authority.

Thus, a depressing atmosphere flowed between everyone and Su Yanhua.

"Since you all don't submit to me, let's stop talking nonsense and find someone with strong martial arts skills here and have a fight!" Su Yanhua suddenly asked slowly.

After the words fell, everyone looked up, shock flashing in their eyes.

"Are you serious?" someone in the crowd suddenly asked in disbelief.

"Correct!"

The resounding words echoed throughout the crowd, like a stone stirring up ripples on the surface of a lake.

"Okay!" The soldier suddenly agreed. He slowly approached Su Yanhua, his head tilted upwards, a look of determination on his face. "What if you lose?"

"I will resign from the position of Vanguard General!" Su Yanhua said.

The soldier smiled obscenely: "If you lose, not only will you resign as Vanguard General, but you will also have to take off all your clothes and walk around the army!"

"Zhang Xiao, shut your stinky mouth!" Liu Li said gritting his teeth.

Su Yanhua's eyes suddenly became cold, and she looked at Zhang Xiao as if he was a dead person.

"If you lose, you must apologize to Liu Li!"

"General—" Liu Li said in disbelief.

"A word is settled!"

It was obvious that he didn't even take a noblewoman from Lingcheng seriously, let alone believe she could defeat eight or nine of them. Even those battle-hardened men with superb martial arts skills would be helpless in such a situation, let alone a frail woman. Therefore, in his view, Su Yanhua's actions were undoubtedly digging her own grave and asking for trouble.

However, the thought of witnessing this beauty's unparalleled beauty in person soon filled Zhang Xiao's restless heart with uncontrollable excitement. Honestly, if it weren't for Su Yanhua's status as a general, he would have long since been unable to contain his inner urge to experience the true beauty of this rare and stunning beauty. After all, in all his life, he had never met a woman as beautiful and captivating as Su Yanhua.
