Divine Doctor Mommy Is A True Big Shot-Chapter 781 - 780: Sibling Reunion
Precisely because of numerous concerns, Feng Bailing had yet to suggest treating Dongfang Mosheng’s eyes.
But this time, due to Great Chu’s extraordinary circumstances, Feng Bailing had to reconsider the idea, and it only strengthened her resolve.
"If it’s you, I trust you."
Dongfang Mosheng didn’t even ask how the treatment would be done before he agreed with a smile.
Seeing Dongfang Mosheng’s trust in her, Feng Bailing was also moved.
"I’ll have Gong Zhu find the appropriate materials right away, and then I’ll treat your eyes. Once everything is ready, you just need to do as I say."
After Feng Bailing had spoken, Dongfang Mosheng didn’t express any doubt. He nodded, unconditionally trusting Feng Bailing’s arrangements.
"Bailing, it’s not good."
Wu Zhenzhen and Wu Wanwan, the sisters, rushed in.
Wu Zhenzhen looked distressed. Ever since Feng Bailing had lifted the hypnotism, Wu Zhenzhen and her sister Wu Wanwan were no longer controlled by the Demon God. To make up for their past faults, the sisters even rallied the Chen Dynasty’s army to join the remnants of Great Chu’s forces in resisting the invasion of Great Chu by the Beiqi Army and the allied forces of multiple countries.
Unfortunately, the Beiqi Army had been winning consistently for some time, morale was high, and with the support of the allied forces, the situation for the Chen Dynasty and Great Chu Army was not good.
Even by marshaling all available military force, they could only barely hold a battle against the Beiqi Army.
Seeing the anxious look on the faces of Wu Zhenzhen and her sister, Feng Bailing was startled.
"Could it be that something sudden has happened with the Great Chu Army?"
Feng Bailing asked anxiously.
Wu Zhenzhen wiped the sweat from her forehead, took a drink of water, and then said,
"The situation is much worse than we thought. News came from somewhere that your Emperor Yongye of Great Chu has passed away, and several Princes have also perished violently. Now Great Chu has no successor, and after this news spread, officials in many cities of Great Chu have defected. They have gone over to the enemy, and now, more than half of Great Chu’s cities have been lost. What’s more, Beiqi and his allied forces are taking advantage of this opportunity to attack all the way, and they are now approaching Chu City."
Approaching Chu City!
Feng Bailing and Dongfang Mosheng both changed their expressions.
"Father Emperor and Empress Dowager... I must return to Chu City."
Dongfang Mosheng, being filial, also showed urgency on his face.
"There is no time to lose; we must rush back to Chu City immediately."
The condition of Emperor Yongye has not been reported until now.
Right now, with the Great Chu Army’s morale shattered, the most urgent matter is to find a way to stop the Beiqi Army. Once the army surrounds Chu City, and the city’s retreat is cut off, it will be too late to remedy anything.
Wu Wanwan at his side also said,
"I have already contacted Nanshe and Daye. Both countries have agreed to send reinforcements, but the reinforcements have to travel far and may not arrive in time to catch up with the pace of the allied forces. Furthermore, the allied forces are now approaching Chu City. If we cannot think of a way to stop them, once they arrive at the city walls, Great Chu is finished."
Great Chu is finished; these words sounded heavy.
A tightness gripped Feng Bailing’s heart.
She had thought that she no longer had any feelings for Great Chu, but upon learning of its peril, her heart couldn’t help but wrench. Moreover, this war has involved countless innocent civilians; she must find a way to stop the Beiqi Army.
"You go back to Chu City first, enter secretly, and stabilize the mood of the influential courtiers. Take this medicine with you for Emperor Yongye."
Saying this, Feng Bailing handed Dongfang Mosheng a bottle of Monkey Wine.
Though in the last life, Emperor Yongye had failed her and her mother, he was still her uncle after all. Feng Bailing couldn’t just watch him die. She didn’t know the current condition of Emperor Yongye, but with the Monkey Wine, at least his life could be preserved.
Dongfang Mosheng nodded, then hesitated before asking,
"Bailing, what about you?"
From Feng Bailing’s tone, he could tell she was not going to accompany him.
"I have some matters to attend to. You go back to Chengdu first, and I’ll follow shortly."
That night, Dongfang Mosheng left Baidi City and hurried back to Chu City.
Feng Bailing was relentlessly pursuing the steps of the Beiqi Allied Army.
Along the way, Feng Bailing discovered that the situation was almost as Wu Zhenzhen and Wu Wanwan, the sisters, had described. Great Chu was still on the verge of collapsing and separating, with refugees everywhere. The local armies had no intention to fight, military pay had dried up, and food supplies were scarce.
Throughout her journey, Feng Bailing witnessed numerous looting incidents. The government was powerless to intervene, and Great Chu was like a scattering of loose sand.
Thinking back to the days when Dugu Wu was around, the contrast to the present situation was stark.
A sense of melancholy surged in Feng Bailing’s heart. If Dugu Wu were here, perhaps all of this would be different.
Feng Bailing shook her head. Why was she thinking of Dugu Wu at this time? Great Chu was in chaos; Dugu Wu must have known, yet he had not appeared, indicating his true reluctance to be involved with Great Chu.
It’s not Dugu Wu’s fault after all. Emperor Yongye had deeply hurt him, and so had the people of Great Chu.
Under these circumstances, how could Dugu Wu possibly stand up again?
"Bai Ling, the Beiqi Army is just ahead. We can’t get any closer; if we do, we might be discovered. The Beiqi Army now has a substantial number of Beast Army soldiers who are very sensitive to human scents. Spies from other countries can’t get close at all."
About five miles away from the Beiqi Allied Army, Wu Zhenzhen and Wu Wanwan, the sisters, were hiding in a small grove with Feng Bailing, observing military intelligence.
"Let’s rest here for now. Over the next few days, we need to find out more about the Beiqi Allied Army situation."
After settling everyone in for the night, Feng Bailing went out alone.
She planned to use the Wooden Holy Seal to thoroughly scout the Beiqi Allied Army and the Beast Army.
However, just as Feng Bailing set out, she heard stealthy footsteps. She saw a small figure slipping out from Chun Liu’s horse carriage.
The little figure slipped toward a nearby bush.
Seeing her daughter, Feng Xiaoli, sneaking around late at night, Feng Bailing couldn’t help but feel a headache coming on.
She had been busy lately and had somewhat neglected disciplining Feng Xiaoli.
This little one was becoming increasingly unruly.
Feng Bailing had also noticed that something was off with Feng Xiaoli recently; the child often sneaked out late at night, though what she was up to was still a mystery.
Deciding not to expose her just yet, Feng Bailing followed her daughter in the direction she was heading. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Feng Xiaoli looked up at the sky. How dark it was.
At this hour, Her Majesty and the others should have all gone to sleep.
"Brother Xiaojin."
As she went deeper, a small lantern lit up in the bushes. When she saw Dugu Xiaojin, Feng Xiaoli was overjoyed. She hurriedly scurried over on her little short legs and saw Dugu Xiaojin walking out to meet her.
Seeing Feng Xiaoli, Dugu Xiaojin also showed a look of joy on his face.
But then, he looked anxiously over Feng Xiaoli’s shoulder in the direction behind her. When he saw who was approaching, he called out nervously in a low voice.
"Queen Mother."
Feng Xiaoli turned around to see her own mother standing behind her, her face as cold as ice.
Caught.
Feng Xiaoli stuck her tongue out lightly.
"Queen Mother, please don’t be mad at Xiaoli."
Dugu Xiaojin looked very uneasy.
Although he had separated from Feng Bailing and the others these past days, he had been secretly keeping in touch with Feng Xiaoli. After learning that Chu City was in danger of being surrounded by the Beiqi Army, Dugu Xiaojin could no longer stand by idly. Without telling Dugu Wu, he had secretly returned to Chu City.
