Phoenix Dance: The Eldest Daughter's Physician Consort Shocks the World
Chapter 56 Hearts Rely on Each Other in Times of Crisis
On the frontier battlefield, Xiao Yichen's risky tactics made the situation extremely tense. Although the soldiers fought bravely, casualties gradually increased. Looking at the smoke-filled battlefield, Xiao Yichen was filled with worry. He knew that the outcome of this battle was not only related to the safety of the country, but also closely related to his and Su Yao's future.
Meanwhile, the palace investigation continued. The people sent by the Empress Dowager did not find any evidence of Su Yao's alleged "improper conduct." However, the scheming concubines did not give up. They continued to spread rumors in the palace, trying to sow discord and make Su Yao's situation in the palace increasingly difficult.
Su Yao was frantic with worry in her palace. On one hand, she was concerned for Xiao Yichen's safety on the battlefield; on the other hand, she had to deal with the various difficulties and slanders within the palace. One day, Cui'er rushed in: "Miss, something terrible has happened! Rumors are circulating that Young Master Xiao suffered a defeat on the battlefield and... he's already... dead on the battlefield!" Su Yao's face turned deathly pale. She couldn't believe her ears: "That's impossible! Cui'er, go and find out where this news came from!"
Cui'er accepted the order and left. Su Yao sat alone by the bed, tears streaming down her face. "Young Master Xiao, you promised me you would return safely. How could you..." Her heart was filled with despair and sorrow, but she told herself that she could not give up like this and that she must find out the truth.
After making inquiries from various sources, Su Yao discovered that these were rumors deliberately spread by hostile forces to undermine her will, induce her to make a mistake in the palace, and thus find a pretext to bring her down completely. Su Yao wiped away her tears, her eyes hardening: "I won't let you succeed! Young Master Xiao must still be alive; I must believe in him."
On the frontier battlefield, Xiao Yichen faced immense pressure, but through his exceptional military talent and unwavering will, he finally found the enemy's weakness and successfully organized a counterattack. After a fierce battle, the enemy began to retreat steadily, and Xiao Yichen's army gradually gained the upper hand, turning the tide of the war.
Xiao Yichen immediately sent news of the victory back to the palace, knowing that Su Yao must be worried about him. When Su Yao received Xiao Yichen's letter and learned that he was safe and sound and had won the battle, she burst into tears of joy: "That's wonderful! Young Master Xiao is alright, and he even won the battle!" Cui'er also jumped up happily: "Miss, that's wonderful! Young Master Xiao is truly valiant!"
With the battle situation stabilizing, Xiao Yichen began to arrange post-battle matters. He knew this victory was hard-won and that he must consolidate the gains to prevent another enemy attack. At the same time, he longed to return to Su Yao's side as soon as possible and share this joy with her.
However, just as Xiao Yichen was preparing to return to the capital, an unexpected event occurred in the court. A minister who had always harbored resentment towards Xiao Yichen, taking advantage of Xiao Yichen's busy handling of border affairs, colluded with some powerful figures in the court, attempting to launch a coup and seize the throne. They secretly plotted and controlled part of the palace guards, making the situation extremely critical.
Su Yao noticed the unusual activity in the palace and keenly sensed an impending crisis. She immediately summoned her trusted confidants cultivated within the palace to prepare for any potential danger. At the same time, she also managed to send a message to Xiao Yichen, hoping he would return to the capital as soon as possible.
At this critical moment, Su Yao displayed extraordinary wisdom and courage. Utilizing her familiarity with the palace layout, she led her trusted followers to engage the rebels, buying time for Xiao Yichen's rescue. Upon receiving the news, Xiao Yichen was extremely anxious and immediately led his elite troops, traveling day and night, back to the capital.
When Xiao Yichen arrived in the capital, he found it in complete chaos. Without hesitation, he rushed into the palace and engaged in a fierce battle with the rebels. Su Yao heard the shouts of battle outside and knew that Xiao Yichen had returned; her heart was filled with hope and strength.
Thanks to the combined efforts of Xiao Yichen and Su Yao, the rebels were finally suppressed. Although this sudden coup was quelled, it caused considerable losses to the court and the palace. Xiao Yichen and Su Yao embraced, cherishing each other even more after surviving the ordeal: "Miss Su, I owe you so much this time. If you hadn't discovered the danger in time and bought us some time, the consequences would have been unimaginable." Su Yao leaned against Xiao Yichen's chest and whispered, "Young Master Xiao, I knew you would come back to save me. As long as we're together, we can overcome any difficulty."
After this ordeal, Xiao Yi trusted and relied on Xiao Yichen and Su Yao even more. They also knew that the road ahead was still full of challenges, but as long as they loved each other and supported one another, they would surely be able to protect their love and the peace of the country.
