God-given peasant wife's good fortune

Chapter 592 The Eve of Siege
[-]

Xiang Zirun didn't want her to worry, so he couldn't help but smiled and said, "Didn't you say that you want to hold a wedding for your master and Miss Shan? If they are willing, the marriage can be held in the Duke Huguo's mansion. The family has not had a happy event for a long time."

Speaking of happy events, Lin Zhaohong suddenly remembered that there was another important event that he forgot to say: "Brother, sister-in-law, I forgot to tell you that the emperor gave Chen Xiang a marriage."

Su Kefang was taken aback: "Is it Princess Chang'an?"

"It's not Princess Chang'an, but the eldest princess of Duwa Kingdom." Lin Zhaohong said.

Xiang Zirun frowned: "Where did this Princess Duwa come from?"

Xiang Zirun had been away from Beijing for too long, so she didn't know about the envoys from the Duwa Kingdom and another small country entering Beijing, but Su Kefang knew about it. When she left the capital, she heard that the Duwa Kingdom envoys were already on their way.

Su Kefang heard that the other party also had a princess before. At that time, she guessed that the Du Wa Kingdom intended to marry An Jin Kingdom, but she only guessed that the princess might become the emperor's concubine, or the second prince's concubine. , but she never thought that this Duwa princess would become her sister-in-law!
Su Kefang couldn't help pondering, Ouyang Wanruo's thoughts on her second uncle were obvious, given how much the Empress Dowager loved her, they didn't stop the emperor from granting her a marriage?
"Senior brother, I have sent someone to investigate. This Princess Duwa is actually not born to the current king of Duwa, but the daughter of his elder brother who passed away. This daughter has been living among the people since she was a child. It happened that the ruler of the Duwa Kingdom had no daughter under his knees, so he was granted the title of princess."

"I'm not asking about the origin of that woman of yours, I'm asking why your emperor gave a woman who appeared halfway to marry Yu Xiang'er?" Xiang Zirun asked sullenly.

Anyone with a little brain knows that the marriage between the two countries is nothing more than to strengthen the relationship between the two countries. Bai Ding, what reason does the emperor have for marrying a princess to him?
"Senior brother, this matter is a decision made by the emperor himself, so it's not easy for me to investigate." Lin Zhaohong looked puzzled, besides, he was assigned a task by the emperor before he could investigate.

After listening to Lin Zhaohong's words, Xiang Zirun became thoughtful.

Something must have happened in this, otherwise the marriage gift would not have fallen on Xiang'er.

Thinking of this, Xiang Zirun looked at his daughter-in-law worriedly: "Be careful when you go back."

Su Kefang nodded absent-mindedly: "If it's possible, I'd like to meet the princess of Duwa Kingdom first."

For such a big matter, the mother-in-law must be very anxious at the moment, right?

"Sister-in-law, it's not a difficult task!" Lin Zhaohong said: "Princess Duwa is living in the palace now, and after returning, just send her a post to invite her to the Duke Protector's Mansion."

The time for the siege was set at noon the next day, and Xiang Zirun needed to attack the city with several generals, so Su Ke went back to the tent by himself.

But soon Su Kefang came out again and went to the handsome tent.

Xiang Zirun knew that her daughter-in-law was not a random person, and she knew that she was discussing with several generals about the siege of the city. She must have something important to see her at this time, and she didn't worry about Li Jianling and the others. Without thinking, let the guard let him go.

As soon as Su Kefang entered the tent, Xiang Zirun asked, "What happened?"

Su Kefang nodded lightly to Li Jianling and the others before he said: "There will be heavy rain tomorrow, and we need to make sufficient preparations for the army to attack the city."

"Madame Marshal, how do you know there will be heavy rain tomorrow?" Li Jianling and others looked at Su Kefang, including Hong Lie, in surprise.

"My wife will check the weather." Xiang Zirun explained: "She said that there will be heavy rain tomorrow, so there must be heavy rain."

"It turns out that the Marshal's wife knows how to observe the sky!" Hu Shan looked at Su Kefang in surprise and joy, and asked, "Then, can the Marshal's wife see whether our attack on Xiacheng will go smoothly?"

Facing Hu Shan's eyes full of hope, Su Kefang smiled: "General Hu, looking at the weather and observing the sky are completely two concepts. I can only see the changes in the weather, and I don't have the ability to predict the future."

Hu Shan was taken aback by Su Kefang's words, and he muttered, "Is the weather different from the sky?"

In his cognition, weather and celestial phenomena have similar meanings.

"Of course it's different," Su Kefang laughed, and briefly explained the difference between weather and celestial phenomena.

After hearing this, Hu Shan laughed: "Anyway, those who can have a relationship with the sky are powerful people. You are also very powerful, Madam Marshal. Not only do you understand medicine, but you can also watch the weather. I admire Hu Shan!"

Hu Shan said that he bowed his hands to Su Kefang casually, causing Su Kefang to shake his head and chuckle.

Although this General Hu has a bad temper, he is straightforward and easy to get along with.

After pondering for a moment, Xiang Zirun said to several generals, "I understand that the time for the siege has been slightly adjusted."

Seeing that they still wanted to discuss military affairs, Su Kefang finished his sentence and went out to find Lin Zhaohong: "Young Master Lin, I want to wait for the army to capture Xiacheng before returning to Beijing."

Xiacheng in Tianwei Kingdom is far away from Shengjing, so it is reasonable to delay on the road, so it is acceptable to go back to the emperor a few days later, Lin Zhaohong thought about it and agreed.

When the two armies are fighting, casualties are indispensable. Su Kefang moved some herbs to stop bleeding and trauma from the space, and made pills or powders with the help of Suye Sumu. The military doctor in the army took people up the mountain to collect herbs before. These herbs were picked by the military doctor, so he didn't think much about it.

Except for Hu Shan, Li Jianling, Xiao Kunbo, and Jiao Guangping were skeptical of Su Kefang's statement that there would be heavy rain the next day. On the second day, seeing the bright sun shining in the sky, Xiao Kunbo couldn't help frowning: "This day It doesn't look like it's going to rain."

Just because of the marshal's wife's words, they made deployments overnight last night. The sun will be scorching, so their deployments seem a bit redundant.

Li Jianling frowned: "Wait a little longer."

Li Jianling didn't believe in Su Kefang, he believed that their marshal wasn't a random person, since he was so sure that there would be a heavy rain today and asked everyone to make arrangements, it was somewhat possible.

"I believe in Madam Marshal!" Hu Shan said firmly, looking at the back of Su Kefang who entered the wounded barracks.

He decided to believe that the wife of the marshal is not a big talker just because the wife of the marshal can enter the lower body and take care of the injured soldiers with his own hands regardless of the difference between men and women.

It was the hottest time in Tianwei Kingdom at this time. The soldiers were sweating profusely. Li Jianling and others were also sweating profusely in the camp. It was almost noon. It was getting more and more poisonous, and even Li Jianling couldn't help but wonder if Xiang Zirun was going to make a mistake this time.
