Chapter 21: Exalted Eldest Madam, A General’s Observation (Side-Story) (Part 4)

Jiang Xiuying was fifteen when she got interested in my right-hand-man Yi Sheng. She pursued him in a strange way, but it worked, and not even a month later he asked me for her hand in marriage.

The young man was love-struck by my daughter. I was reluctant to say yes; I was fearful that the young man was being tricked by her. But my father said to let them get married, and he also said if you refused, he wouldn't want to think about the consequences on his daughters' side.

They where happy and my daughter showed a truly happy expression and then one that looked like she wanted to eat him.

I really didn't want to see that one.

They married, and my daughter left the house.

Two months later I was called to the border, and my right hand followed me. The countries where cooking up a racket.

While I was at in the front lines, I heard from the locals a story about a smiling devil who ran around robbing and damaging everything in the area. The person was a young woman who swung around a deadly sword.

It seems my daughter has done things outside the country,

I had a talk with my son in law about his married life with my daughter.

"She is an angel," he said, "She is very gentle to people, and she would never scam nor hurt a little flower like most noble women."

I nearly spat blood, everything that came out his mouth was filled with praises and contradictory that he could believe.

My son-in-law, I'm sorry everything you know is a lie.

It had been a few years at the border, when the enemy ambushed us at night. A Spy was in our camp and mixed a sleeping agent.

Although we fought back and retaliated and managed to make our enemy retreat, we suffered casualties.

Including Yi Sheng, I mourned his death but at the same time, I was afraid of my daughter's reaction.

So, I wrote to my father about the situation. It seems he was frightened too, in his letter he wrote that at his funeral she actually cried, really cried.

And then she was really frightened at what she might do so he went and suggested to bring her back when the family fell into trouble again.

When his second brother died.

A month later he was invited by the four invading countries.

Yanmin country was the first I went to, the moment I stepped into the capital I was their palace was split in half, the emperor Lei Guo, was shivering in a corner the man was shivered up and dispirited. His Eunuchs explained to him that he had been like that since their palace was split apart by a monstrous woman. Who said she would return to take out the whole country is we didn't make a deal with you.

I heard the emperor whimper; he was an enemy, but I felt bad for him.

Huoyijun country known for its completely beautiful lands was now a wasteland. The Emperor Xu Shui was in just as bad of a state that the Emperor of Yanmin country.

Chen country had a beautiful building and was perfected by the Taoist Sect. All their building and even the Taoist Sect was destroyed. Their Emperor Peng Jie was bedridden with vicious nightmares.

As for Tan country, their entire capital was destroyed. The emperor now lives on the outskirts like the other's was now sobbing.

When I got back to the border, I wrote to my father

And then I was summoned back from the border and congratulated by the county as taming the other four was credited due to me.

When the Emperor asked, I told him I suppressed them with high strength. The emperor knew it was a stretch but asked no further.

I sighed. The fun never ends when my daughters involved.
