The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!

Chapter 1726: Chapter 1719: Why Should I Cry If I Break Off the Engagement?

Ye Hongru was aware of some of the inside details.

He empathized deeply, knowing that it was much harder for women to serve as generals compared to men. Therefore, he was especially tolerant toward them.

Yang Xianhui finished wiping her blade. Her tear-stained eyes turned to look at Ye Hongru and she asked, ”If a male soldier in the army encountered a canceled engagement, would General Ye grant them time to go home and resolve it?”

Ye Hongru froze for a moment, then shook his head, ”For men, the nation comes first. Without achievements and contributions, how can they think of family? There has never been a male soldier who left the camp because of a broken engagement.”

”Then if men can do it, why should I make an exception just because I’ve been rejected? How are women any less than men? Without achievements and contributions, how can we think of family?

This engagement being canceled is just that—I, Yang Xianhui, will never live my life with marriage as my goal!

I will continue to train in the camp and do what I should!

Irrelevant people cannot stand in my way!”

Yang Xianhui’s eyes were red, but her resolve was absolute. Her tenacity was like her polished blade—sharp and radiant.

Lin Yu and Fu Yuan, standing to the side, said nothing.

After Ye Hongru left, Fu Yuan couldn’t help but curse under her breath, ”That heartless bastard! During Sister Hui’s competition, he used empty words to coax her, promising to wait for her no matter how many years it took!

And now, in just a few days, he couldn’t wait to break off the engagement!

A lazy, good-for-nothing nobleman—what right does he have to reject Sister Hui’s marriage!”

Lin Yu, who hadn’t known them for long and didn’t understand the complexities of noble family alliances, still expressed her view, ”Since he’s a lazy good-for-nothing, he doesn’t deserve Sister Hui!

Sister Hui is decisive and doesn’t rely on him for her future. This engagement being canceled is also freeing her from unnecessary burdens! From now on, we’ll be able to focus with even greater clarity!”

Lin Yu pulled Fu Yuan along and walked up to Yang Xianhui, taking the initiative to speak, ”Sister Hui, today’s training wasn’t exhausting yet. Let’s head off to do sand table exercises! The assessments for Martial Generals are very rigorous; we still have many competitions and a lot to learn and practice. Stop fretting over someone unworthy!”

Yang Xianhui wiped away her tears and cheerfully patted Lin Yu’s shoulder, ”You’re right! We still have much to learn and train for! Compared to General Lin, we still have a long way to go! We must work harder!

Let’s go see the sand table!”

Yang Xianhui was about to take Lin Yu and Fu Yuan to study the sand table, but suddenly a report came from outside the camp—the dam outside the city had collapsed, flooding the village with river water, and rescue efforts were urgently needed.

Their West Suburban Camp was the closest to the village.

Lin Aotian sent Ye Hongru, instructing him to immediately muster the troops and dispatch personnel.

While assigning tasks, Ye Hongru saw the three women step forward and volunteer.

Ye Hongru’s gaze landed upon Lin Yu, and he spoke in a low voice, ”You’re not in good health, don’t go.”

”General, I can go!”

Lin Yu stepped forward resolutely.

Ye Hongru frowned slightly, ”Fine.”

Then he issued orders, ”Deputy General Yang, you and Lin Yu take two hundred elites to transport supplies and block the collapsed dam. Fu Yuan, you take men to the village to rescue the civilians! Do not fail in your tasks!”

Lin Yu and the other two saluted in unison, ”Yes, we accept the orders!”

The three split into groups for action. Lin Yu and Yang Xianhui led their troops straight toward the dam, only to find that the collapse was far more severe than they had imagined.

Yang Xianhui had never seen such a scene before, but she remained composed, directing the soldiers to transport large stones from the mountain to roll down into the river and block the surging water.

Having followed Ye Hongru for many years, Lin Yu was more experienced. She instructed the soldiers to cut down trees immediately, laying timber across the dam to block the water flow, then digging channels to redirect the water.
