The General's Darling Is Delicate
Chapter 203 - 142: The Great Xia Princess Is Far Too Arrogant!
CHAPTER 203: CHAPTER 142: THE GREAT XIA PRINCESS IS FAR TOO ARROGANT!
Who would have thought, that boy actually made a fuss all the way to the Queen, and refused to marry the Princess of Great Xia.
In the end, it was pushed back and forth until it fell on his third son’s shoulders.
Still, he volunteered to take on the task...
But who could have anticipated that the infamous Seventh Princess from Great Xia would be so beautiful!
Not only did Yelyu Erlun regret it, but the other princes were also filled with resentment!
Ever since the Great Xia Princess entered the General Mansion, she caused quite a stir, and everyone was waiting to make a mockery of the bastard.
At this moment, they actually felt that they were the joke!
Such a beauty, what does it matter if her character is flawed?
Yelyu Yao sat in the front row, staring intently at the woman he had missed, who had harshly whipped him, and the more he looked, the more he was filled with anger.
Meanwhile, Yelyu Nalan sat at the very bottom, watching the Little Princess’s back as she tightly held her third brother’s hand, trembling with rage.
She thought of the words the Queen had instructed her, her lips curling into a slight smile.
There was no need for her to deliberately find fault with that woman; she had already delivered herself on a platter.
Before the Little Princess could speak further, her voice echoed in the silent hall, "Princess, Lan’er knows you have come from Great Xia, with a noble status, but to be so late for the first family banquet, is it because you don’t regard our Bianliao?"
As soon as the provocative voice arose, everyone’s gaze shifted to her.
Yelyu Nalan raised her head high, allowing others to scrutinize her.
She thought her words would make that woman anxious to explain, especially since relations between the two countries were tense.
Unexpectedly, the Little Princess turned her back to her without even glancing back.
It was as if she had just farted, not even worthy of reaching her ears.
Yun Chunnuan slightly curled her lips, her gaze still on the middle-aged man at the top, "Since I was in Great Xia, I have heard that the King has a passion for the calligraphy and paintings of the Central Plains. This late arrival was not my intention; rather, our Central Plains horses are not as strong and robust as those of Bianliao, and these artworks are rare treasures that must be carefully protected."
As soon as she finished speaking, the man beside her complemented her perfectly.
With a clap of his hands, ten Palace Attendants slowly entered from outside the hall, each holding scrolls in their hands, quickly standing uniformly behind the pair in the hall.
Completely ignored, Yelyu Nalan’s anger surged up, "The Great Xia Princess is too arrogant! I am speaking to you!"
At that moment, Yun Chunnuan had already turned around, just about to take the scroll from the Palace Attendant behind her.
Upon hearing the angry rebuke, she raised her shimmering phoenix eyes.
She slightly raised her eyebrows, looking surprised, "Oh? This Princess was paying respects to the King, and didn’t realize this lady was speaking to me. And who might you be?"
"You—"
That unrecognizable look on her face made Yelyu Nalan furious.
Although her princess status was never recognized by the King, her position in the Imperial Palace rose along with her third brother becoming the Mighty General!
Which Palace Attendant wouldn’t call her ’Princess’ upon seeing her?
Who would dare, like that woman, completely ignore her?!
The ’who might you be’ seemed to push her back into the mud! Still the illegitimate daughter, hidden from the light!
She didn’t even notice the differing expressions on the faces of those three people at the top.
Ayimu slightly curled his lips, sipping from the jade cup in his hand.
Seeing that woman across, whose face turned red with rage, almost smashing the jade cup onto Yelyu Nalan’s face...
His gaze fell back on that dignified girl in the hall, feeling more and more that his daughter-in-law was truly pleasing to the eye!
Wise, astute, with just three simple words, she exposed that little green tea’s act of pretending to be pitiful.
Looking at her attire today, it must have been carefully prepared by the Queen.
She intended to use her face with Central Plains features to shine brightly at this royal banquet and slap Nuannuan’s face hard.
But who knew...
Fools are beyond saving.
She only smiled without speaking.
Yet even so, it made the Queen tremble with anger.
She wanted to warn that fool not to lose control.
But she was a step too late, only to see Yelyu Nalan resort to her usual tactics again.
Tears welling in her eyes, she pitifully walked towards the man she worshiped the most, taking small steps.
"Third Brother~~"
Her voice was so sweet it made one’s scalp tingle.
Just as her hands were about to touch Yelyu Lie, he flung them away, "Dirty."
Yelyu Nalan: "!!!"
Her teary eyes were filled with disbelief.
She had only heard the word ’dirty’ from the servants in the Prince Palace...
They would stand far away, watching her leave the Prince Palace in a miserable state, pretending to be calm.
In the end, they spat behind her back, calling her dirty, calling her disgusting...
But...
"Third Brother, weren’t you the one who adored Lanlan the most? What kind of spell has this woman cast on you? Why is it that ever since she appeared, you no longer care about your own sister! Why? Why!"
Yelyu Nalan couldn’t understand!
Clearly, the Third Brother wasn’t like this before!
Although he never treated her as gently as he did with that woman, but whatever she wanted, he never stopped her!
Even when she fought with the women in his mansion, he acted as if he didn’t see it.
If this wasn’t doting, what was it?!
She saw the man’s gaze lower, those cold pupils falling upon her as if looking at a dead object.
His sharp lips curved slightly, like a scimitar, slicing across her heart.
"If you don’t want others to know, you shouldn’t have done it.
Yelyu Nalan, did you really think I was an idiot?"
