The Charm of a Powerful Woman Spreads Across the World

Chapter 114

Ru Feng glanced quickly at her grandfather, bent down to pick up the book, and remained silent.

Yu Chi Huaiyang didn't press Ru Feng, but simply said, "No matter what, once you're on the battlefield, you'll be enemies, and all past friendships will vanish. You must remember your place."

Ru Feng nodded respectfully, "Understood, Grandpa. I know what I'm doing." Ru Feng always felt that Grandpa already knew everything about Yun Tianze and himself, but he just didn't say it. Of course, if he didn't say it, Ru Feng wouldn't bring it up on his own initiative.

Yu Chi Huaiyang nodded in satisfaction and said, "Come, let's analyze the terrain around Zaohe River again."

Ru Feng responded and stepped forward to talk to Yu Chi Huaiyang, but his mind had already wandered off.

That evening, after taking a shower, Ru Feng lay in bed unable to fall asleep. She lay there quietly, thinking silently in the darkness.

Yun Tianze is coming, ostensibly to supervise the army, but since it's the battlefield, who knows what he might do? That could really lead to war. Although Zi Luo Kingdom and Chun Teng Kingdom have been at war, Ru Feng rarely associates Chun Teng Kingdom with Yun Tianze. Now, suddenly, he's coming, and Ru Feng is truly at odds with him, no longer able to maintain the facade of peace.

Sigh, we've finally come to this point.

Ru Feng recalled the last time she saw Yun Tianze. At that time, she was filled with anger and sadness, but after seeing him, she only said a few words. She felt that everyone had their own responsibilities, so they couldn't all act according to their own whims. In the end, Yun Tianze threw the bead away, so Ru Feng wasn't too sad. She was only sad that she would never see Yun Tianze again.

I never expected to see it now, but in this way.

Things have changed! As the wind recalled the four words, perhaps everything in the academy remained the same, but the people had changed. So he had also escaped from the academy and come to the battlefield. He never expected that he would still encounter what he was destined to encounter.

Ru Feng was confused, wondering whether he should tell others about this, such as Mu Wenchen, who had always known about his relationship with Yun Tianze, and Yu Jue and Yu Bao, who probably already knew, so there was no need for him to tell them.

Ru Feng was lost in thought all night, unable to sleep, his mind a jumble of thoughts, pondering many things.

In the middle of the night, just as Ru Feng was drifting off to sleep, he suddenly heard shouts of battle outside, and it seemed very chaotic. Startled, Ru Feng fastened his belt and rushed out, and at the same time, the people in his tent also rushed out.

Looking towards the noisy area, which appeared to be the marshal's tent, Ru Feng was startled and dared not linger. He immediately used his lightness skill to rush over, leaving many others behind in an instant.

When Ru Feng and his group arrived, they could only see three dark figures entangled with other soldiers, surrounded by armed soldiers forming a circle. Without saying a word, Ru Feng joined the battle. He aimed at the enemy, and his swordplay was like a surging sea, with flashes of silver light and powerful pressure pressing down on the enemy.

With Ru Feng's arrival, the situation suddenly changed. Before long, the three men were captured. But when Ru Feng rushed over to interrogate them, two of them had already committed suicide by gritting their teeth, and the other was actually an enemy general who had been captured by Ru Feng!

Ru Feng was startled, fearing he might commit suicide, so he pressed his pressure points and said, "Men, drag him away and keep an eye on him. Don't let him kill himself!" Still not entirely at ease, he called over ten elite soldiers outside the tent and said, "You all keep a close watch on him. Don't let anyone approach him. Remember, you absolutely must not let him commit suicide!" Ru Feng suspected that today's events were not simple.

"Yes!" the ten men replied respectfully and dragged the man away. They were all Yuchi Huaiyang's personal guards and loyal followers, so they already knew Ru Feng's identity, but they just didn't reveal it.

So Ru Feng quickly rushed into the marshal's tent with his group; there were already many people inside, most of them disheveled, and everyone looked worried.

Startled, he quickly asked, "What happened?"

Everyone turned their faces and saw that it was Ru Feng. No one answered, but their actions made Ru Feng see clearly that Yu Chi Huai Yang was lying on the bed, bleeding from his chest, and a military doctor was treating him.

It was Zhong Ying's turn to keep watch today, so he answered anxiously, "There was an assassination attempt tonight. The attackers were extremely skilled in martial arts, and there were about ten of them. The marshal was caught off guard and was killed. The situation is currently unclear." Zhong Ying's voice was soft, but it was enough for everyone to understand.

Ru Feng pushed through the crowd and forcefully walked in. Looking at the old military doctor with slightly gray hair, Ru Feng recognized him as Yi Han's grandfather, the best doctor in the army. There were also many military doctors who had just arrived, including Zui Yue.

"How is it?" Vice Marshal Gao Wei couldn't help but ask.

Ru Feng looked at the wound on his grandfather's chest, which was caused by a sword. His grandfather's body was rosy, with a reddish hue spreading, but his lips were shockingly white, his breathing was weak, and his brows were tightly furrowed, making him look very strange.

The old army doctor shook his head, choking back tears, and said, "The situation is very bad. There's deadly poison on the sword. Marshal... Marshal... he..."

"Just tell me straight, is it curable or not?" Ru Feng shouted. "Don't stutter!"

The old military doctor, Yi, immediately said, "I can't treat him!"

As if struck by lightning, everyone was stunned. Ru Feng was also dumbfounded. Suddenly, she remembered the two pills that Mu Wenchen had given her before he left. So she took a big step forward, pulled out the medicine bottle from her arms, and called out, "Zuiyue, come here."

Zuiyue couldn't contain herself any longer. She stepped out from the crowd, took Rufeng's medicine bottle, sniffed it, and a look of surprise flashed across her face. She then squatted down and carefully prepared to feed Yuchi Huaiyang a pill the size of an index finger.

The old military doctor, Yi, shouted, "What are you trying to do? Why are you feeding him random things?"

The people around also glared angrily.

"Mu Rufeng, don't think that just because the Marshal favors you, you can act lawlessly. Do you even respect us?" a general scolded. He was about forty or fifty years old, with the demeanor of a scholar. He had always been cold to Rufeng and was an old subordinate of Yuchi Huaiyang, named Leng Weitian.

Ru Feng suppressed the urge to roar and sneered, "Would I harm my own grandfather?" Ru Feng had long disliked him, who always took advantage of his age and found fault with him.

The crowd gasped in surprise as they stared at Ru Feng. Some, however, remained calm, their faces showing only anxiety. Ru Feng noticed all of this and took it to heart.

Ru Feng snorted coldly, looked at Zui Yue who was taking her pulse, and asked anxiously, "Zui Yue, how is she?" His palms were sweating and his heart was pounding.

Zuiyue's expression was also not good, and she said, "It really is a drunken red!"

The old military doctor, now knowing that Ru Feng was Yu Chi Huai Yang's grandson, trusted him and added, "Yi Zui Hong is a very deadly poison. The poisoned person's whole body will turn red, as if they are drunk, but in fact, every moment the poisoned person lives will be filled with unbearable heart pain, as if being cut by a knife. After three days of pain, they will die. During this time, the poisoned person will remain unconscious."

"Is there an antidote?" Gao Wei asked first.

The old military doctor shook his head sadly: "This is almost a deadly poison, and no one has ever heard of making an antidote for it."

Someone cried out, and the atmosphere in the entire tent immediately became tense. Everyone's eyes were on Yuchi Huaiyang, their faces filled with panic and sorrow.

Ru Feng suppressed his grief and said, "There will always be a time. Everything in the universe has its counterpart. Zui Yue?" His tone was pleading.

Zuiyue stood up and looked at Rufeng, saying, "Senior brother, I will do my best. Your pill can buy me fifteen days. I will do my best to make an antidote."

Everyone was overjoyed, and the old military doctor was so excited that he swayed. Yi Han, who was standing next to him, quickly stepped forward to support his swaying body and comforted him, "Grandpa, you can rest assured now."

The old military doctor looked at Zuiyue and said, "Miss Zuiyue, just tell me what medicine you need, and I will do everything I can to help you!" He and Yuchi Huaiyang had known each other for forty years and their feelings for each other were deeper than for anyone else. Now that he heard that Yuchi Huaiyang might be saved, he couldn't help but shed tears.

Zuiyue had already applied the best medicine to Yuchi Huaiyang's wound, so she said, "Do your best."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that there was hope, but Ru Feng remained frowning. Zui Yue had only said she would do her best, but hadn't said there was a guarantee of success, so Grandpa…

Ru Feng squatted down and grasped Yu Chi Huaiyang's calloused hand, saying, "Grandpa, you must get through this!" Holding back her tears, Ru Feng turned to look at everyone and said, "Everyone, go back and rest first. Strengthen the guard. I'll take care of Grandpa here."

Leng Weitian opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing, while Gao Wei insisted on staying. The others looked around and then left.
