Rebirth: Find a General as Your Backer

In fact, Su Lianxue's business has gradually gotten on track and does not require her to stay there all day.

The collected items were taken care of by the military doctors.

When it comes to getting medicine at the clinic, Yun Que'er can basically understand the prescriptions written by the doctor and can accurately get the medicine.

At the same time, the shop assistants are all trustworthy people, so whether or not Zhang Da comes to help doesn't really matter much.

Chu Mohan was worried that Su Lianxue would be preoccupied with business matters and wouldn't be able to stay at home peacefully, so he made this arrangement. Su Lianxue understood the general's intentions and therefore agreed.

The person who loves you is always afraid of not giving you enough; the person who doesn't love you is always complaining that you don't give enough.

......

"Hmph! Give these brats a good beating!" General Chen roared. But those who dared to offend their general were now filled with pent-up anger.

If they find any people from the Canglang Kingdom, they will attack them mercilessly to the death.

Furthermore, they dispatched elite troops to the heartland of the Canglang Kingdom to launch various powerful counterattacks against different parts of the kingdom.

The border is now fortified, like an impregnable iron fortress. The people of the Canglang Kingdom can no longer find an opportunity to invade.

......

Toya clearly sensed the tense atmosphere permeating the city of Mofang.

So she pretended to be sick today and didn't help out at the tavern.

She paced back and forth in her dwelling, filled with anxiety, pondering whether she should flee the city.

However, at that moment, she heard footsteps outside. Peeking through the crack in the door, she was surprised to find a group of soldiers.

In a panic, she ran toward the back door, but as soon as she stepped out, she was captured by the soldiers guarding the back.

Zhang Fu asked, "Are you Toya?"

Toya waved her hands nervously and said, "I'm not, you've mistaken me for someone else."

Zhang Fu said coldly, "Whether it is or not, we'll know once we take him back and interrogate him."

As Toya was led down the street by soldiers, her heart sank to the bottom. She didn't know why she had been arrested, and her mind raced as she tried to think of a way to deal with the situation.

Along the way, Toya tried to find a chance to escape, but the soldiers guarded her very closely, and she had no way to make a move. Soon, they arrived at a majestic government hall.

In the hall, a stern-faced official sat upright. Zhang Fu stepped forward and reported, "Lord Zhang, this person claims not to be Tuoya, but in my opinion, she is highly suspicious."

Wang Jingnian narrowed his eyes slightly, scrutinized Tuoya, and slowly said, "Raise your head." Helpless, Tuoya had no choice but to slowly raise her head, her eyes filled with fear and unease.

Wang Jingnian continued, "If you are not Tuoya, why did you flee when you saw the government troops?"

Toya stammered, unsure how to answer.

Wang Jingnian said in a deep voice, "Don't think that just because you don't speak, I can't do anything to you."

Wang Jingnian combined the intelligence sent by the general, the fact that the teahouse owner had heard about a tavern and someone named Tuoya, and the female voice that Aunt Li heard, and concluded that this person should undoubtedly be Tuoya.

So Wang Jingnian ordered, "Go and call Aunt Li here, and see if this person is the woman she was talking about."

Not long after, Aunt Li came to check. When she heard the person speak, she was absolutely certain that this was the person whose voice she had heard that day.

Therefore, Wang Jingnian ordered Zhang Fu to interrogate him.

Zhang Fu said sternly, "Speak! What is the purpose of the Crown Prince's visit to Mofang City? Will you confess voluntarily, or will I subject you to severe torture?"

Toya still tried to argue her case, insisting that she was innocent.

However, under Zhang Fu's severe torture, Tuoya's face turned ashen, her lips bloodless, and her whole body trembled uncontrollably. Her eyes were filled with fear and despair, knowing she could no longer hide the truth.

"I'm not really sure what the eldest prince came to Mofang City for this time, because the messenger only told me to inquire about the famous doctors in the city, and didn't say anything else."

Toya's voice trembled, choked with sobs, "I find it strange too. In the past, he always asked me to find out the detailed defenses of this pass. He wanted to know important information such as the troop deployment at each pass, the strength of the fortifications, and the storage locations of supplies and provisions, so as to make the most thorough preparations for the Canglang Kingdom's attack."

Zhang Fu pondered for a moment, then continued to ask, "Doctor, your Canglang Kingdom is short of doctors. Is the doctor you were asked to investigate here?"

Toya hurriedly replied, "Really, sir, I'm not lying to you."

"Do you know who the eldest prince is looking for a doctor for? Or is the eldest prince himself ill? Also, besides you, is anyone else inquiring about information from the Canglang Kingdom?" Zhang Fu continued his interrogation.

Toya paused slightly, then replied, "My lord, from what I've observed, the eldest prince doesn't seem to be ill. I did overhear him talking to someone, mentioning that the Wolf King seems to be in poor health. That's all I really know. We spies operate in single-line, and none of us know about each other."

Zhang Fu stared intently at Toya, seemingly assessing the veracity of her words. After a moment, he asked again, "Since you are a spy, how much important intelligence have you transmitted within the city? And how did you transmit it?"

Toya's eyes flickered, and she stammered, "I... I didn't pass on much important information. Usually, the eldest prince would send someone to the tavern and say he wanted some bamboo leaf green wine. I would ask how much he wanted and reply, 'Two catties,' and then say that we were in a hurry to get on the road and ask him to fill another catty to take away. Then I would put the information in the wine container."

Zhang Fu snorted coldly: "Then do you know where the Canglang Kingdom will break through the defenses if they attack?"

Toya shook her head in a panic: "My lord, I really don't know. I'm only responsible for collecting some daily information. How could the Crown Prince possibly reveal the specific plans for the attack to me?"

Zhang Fu stood up and paced back and forth in the cell, pondering Toya's confession. After a while, he stopped and said to Toya, "If what you said is true, perhaps we can spare your life. But you must cooperate with us and atone for your sins. If you tell even the slightest lie, we will not let you off easily."

Toya nodded quickly: "Don't worry, sir, I will cooperate fully."

Zhang Fu walked out of the cell and reported Tuoya's confession to Wang Jingnian.

After hearing this, Wang Jingnian was also puzzled. If they were looking for a doctor, why would they kidnap the general's fiancée?

But since he had already asked the question, Wang Jingnian hurriedly reported the news to the general.
