Quick Transmigration: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Die a Natural Death

Zhou Lele's face stiffened: "My second aunt has never been close to us, so..."

"No wonder she said she had severed ties with the Zhou family; it's a pity."

Yu Shujun recalled that during the previous discussions, Wang Yifeng allowed Yao Feiran to speak at the front throughout, and the officials there also showed Yao Feiran a great deal of respect.

Perhaps Yao Feiran has more influence than imagined. If she still has feelings for the Zhou family, she might be of great help to His Majesty in recovering the south.

Seeing Yu Shujun's regretful expression, Zhou Lele's face turned somewhat ugly. She never expected that her neglected second aunt would become a renowned female general and marry Wang Yifeng. However, she always felt that Prince You was the ultimate victor, and her second aunt would regret her choice sooner or later.

Not long after, Prince You attacked Jindu. Chen Mingzhen also wanted to take control of Jindu and gathered his troops to prepare for a rear attack, hoping to reap the benefits.

After finally managing to mobilize all the nation's troops to the city closest to Jindu, a report suddenly arrived from the rear overnight.

"Your Majesty, the Xiangyu Army is attacking Cuiluan City, and the leader is that female general Yao Feiran."

Chen Mingzhen sneered: "Let Zhang Xiong guard Feiyun Pass. A bunch of rabble, they're dreaming if they think they can get into Cuiluan City."

He had long anticipated that someone would need to guard the rear, so he did not withdraw most of his troops. Besides, Feiyun Pass had already been set up with traps, as it was the only way to pass through.

A week later, just as Chen Mingzhen was preparing to lead his troops to Jindu, an urgent report came from the front lines.

"Your Majesty, it's terrible! Feiyun Pass has fallen, and we've lost Cuiluan City."

Chen Mingzhen grabbed the other man by the collar and shouted, "What are you talking about? Cui Luan City has fallen in just a few days. Does the Xiangyu Army have that kind of strength?"

Although Wang Yifeng occupied the entire south, the area was not large. There were many lakes, and the rest was mountainous. Moreover, after occupying the area, he stayed at home to develop. It was said that the weapons there were still very backward, and there were no cavalry. Chen Mingzhen did not take the other party seriously at all.

"I heard they have a kind of fireball that explodes when thrown into a crowd, injuring a large number of soldiers. They also have muskets that can penetrate armor. Our soldiers are no match for them."

The messenger was crying uncontrollably, as if he had witnessed some terrible scene.

Yao Feiran had no intention of stopping Chen Mingzhen from going to Jindu. They had been recuperating for so many years, and their reserves of weapons and provisions were already sufficient.

Over the years, she selected soldiers with good aptitude, taught them the martial arts techniques derived from them, and formed several elite teams that could break through any military formation.

This time, she originally wanted to attack Chen Mingzhen, and it just so happened that Prince You was too busy to pay attention to this place, so she prevented him from taking a share of the spoils.

Chen Mingzhen had no choice but to urgently withdraw his troops and go to the rear to provide support.

A year later, Yao Feiran annexed most of Chen Mingzhen's territory, and Prince You successfully took control of Jindu. The young emperor was strangled to death by the Zhang family during his escape, and the previous dynasty officially came to an end.

After Prince You established Jindu as the capital, he turned around and began to attack Chen Mingzhen. Caught between two forces, Chen Mingzhen hanged himself, and the world was thus divided in two.

Yao Feiran has also become a major concern for Prince You.

Recently, Yao Feiran has been in a bad mood. Looking at Wang Yifeng coughing incessantly in the room, he knew that Wang Yifeng's body was completely drained. Although his lifespan was extended by a few years compared to the original storyline, he was ultimately not allowed to die a natural death.

Wang Yifeng's figure had also become thinner. He glanced at Yao Feiran with a complicated look in his eyes: "I may not have much time left, and I won't be able to see you sit in that position."

Over the years, Yao Feiran has always been by his side, taking care of his health. Zhou Miao is also very obedient, which has allowed him to experience the happiness of an ordinary family.

It also made him somewhat reluctant to part with it.

Before Yao Feiran could speak, Wang Yifeng continued, "I see you want to groom Zhou Miao. In the future, don't let her trust men. Men are all ambitious. Even if you suppress him temporarily, once he finds an opportunity, he will want to turn the tables."

"No one is willing to be subordinate to others. If I weren't infertile and not already dying, I wouldn't allow you to stand in front of me."

Yao Feiran said softly, "I know, that's why I chose you back then."

"We've been married for years, and I'm about to die. Can't you at least comfort me and say something nice? Couldn't you have chosen me just because I'm good-looking and capable?"

"..."

Wang Yifeng looked amused and exasperated: "Compared to Yang Wang and Song Hanlong, who do you like the most?"

"...Of course it's you."

Yao Feiran was a little helpless. Even at this point, they still had to bring up her confidants for comparison. They were getting childish as they got older.

The next day, Wang Yifeng openly and honestly relinquished the leadership position to Yao Feiran in the main hall, and no one in the hall dared to object.

The South has officially changed hands.

Not long after, Wang Yifeng died in Yao Feiran's arms.

Zhou Miao cried very sadly. Yao Feiran had experienced countless life and death situations. Apart from being somewhat dejected, she did not lose her composure like Zhou Miao. Moreover, she had never let Wang Yifeng down.

"Marshal Yao, the Wang family is causing trouble outside."

"Lock them all up, forbid them from going out, and take good care of them."

Wang Yifeng never mentioned the Wang family before she died, presumably leaving it to Yao Feiran to handle. However, since Wang Yifeng had just died, it was not appropriate to deal with the Wang family immediately, lest people think she was too cold-blooded.

"Yes."

After Wang Yifeng's death, the transfer of power went very smoothly. She was originally Wang Yifeng's wife, so she was considered one of his own, and she had been in charge for many years.

The ships that had gone out to sea returned, bringing high-yield crops. Yao Feiran distributed these seeds, and within just a few months, they received a good response.

In this way, she should have even more food.

The Reversal of Fate Bead also gained enormous energy, but Yao Feiran always maintained a balance between income and expenditure, such as spending it on other things, such as gathering talented people with great fortune to research weapons, and predicting fortune and misfortune on the battlefield.

For example, during a battle, King You discovered that his generals were inexplicably shot down no matter where they stood. Once, even when they were standing on the city wall, the heavy triple-bow crossbows were able to accurately aim at the enemy.

It's important to know that the triple-bow crossbow required seventy or eighty people to operate and had a range of over a thousand meters, so its accuracy wasn't very good. It was generally used to shoot at groups of soldiers, but it ended up being used as a sniper rifle.

Furthermore, the grain and provisions hidden behind the main camp were easily discovered by the enemy's patrol team and burned in a fire, causing Prince You to dismiss many people and constantly suspect that there were spies among them.

After suffering several defeats, Prince You actually sent Yu Shujun to negotiate peace.

When she saw Yu Shujun again, he was no longer as spirited as before, and he looked at Yao Feiran with increasing caution.

He always felt that if his wife had treated Yao Feiran better, things wouldn't have come to this.
