CHAPTER 210: CHAPTER 146: CAN I DO BUSINESS?

But Yelyu Lie dared not speak.

He was terribly afraid, if his little wife discovered that he wasn’t such a pure and kind person, would it greatly impact her view of him?

After all, his little wife had even saved a woman who tried to poison her...

Yelyu Lie thought that it would take his little wife a while to think before she’d give him an answer to this question.

Unexpectedly, she leaned her head against his chest and gave a firm answer just as he finished speaking, "Are you silly or what? My husband is merely returning eye for eye, tooth for tooth. How is that unkind?

Why can they bully his wife, and my husband can’t retaliate harshly back?

This question of yours is a bit silly! Silly hubby!"

Yelyu Lie held his little wife’s body and paused, "You... found out?"

"Did you think your little wife is dumb? That cat suddenly went mad, and it attacked no one but the Queen and Yelyu Nalan, and it just happened to disfigure them..."

Saying this, Yun Chunnuan quickly shut her mouth, nervously looking around.

Yelyu Lie couldn’t help but let out a low laugh at her innocent demeanor, "Now you’re afraid, huh? I saw you earlier in the hall, confronting the King with such a fierce demeanor, I thought the Seventh Princess of Great Xia had returned, truly a fiery little wife!"

Yun Chunnuan: "?"

Good heavens, calling her fiery?

And it was all for whose sake!

"I don’t care. Now that you have a wife, only your wife is allowed to bully you! Others, even if it’s your mother, are not allowed! You’re mine, do you understand?

Today, the King didn’t have time to reward women, but I heard from my mother that every time there is a royal banquet, even if you don’t attend, he sends the unwanted women to the General Mansion. If you dare to take them once more, I will... I’ll run away from home!"

"Tch, this general’s home already has a wife, who would dare to send more women here, they must be blind. Don’t worry, madam, even the ones in the mansion now, I will send them all away.

It’s only you, and can only be you."

That scene today where his little wife fiercely defended her husband, Yelyu Lie thought, he would never forget in his life.

The feeling in his heart, more moved than grateful.

Even he hadn’t realized how numb his heart had become.

Even taking the position of Mighty General, those people who still didn’t respect him cursed him openly and secretly.

It wasn’t that he didn’t fight back, but he couldn’t shut everyone’s mouth.

Over the years, he became numb...

He thought that maybe if he just stopped going to the Royal Palace it would be better, after all, he was stationed at the border all year round, nobody would chase him to the barracks to curse him, right?

If not for his little wife waking him up today, he wouldn’t have realized that he became like a turtle that just wanted to hide instead of solving the problem.

If her impassioned speech was still unheard, then don’t blame him for being ruthless...

Only today’s anger from his little wife, just today.

His gentle words were met with a long sigh from Yun Chunnuan, "I feel a bit useless, only showing off with my words. Had it been that Seventh Princess of Great Xia, she might have already been striking people today."

"Silly!" Yelyu Lie gently pinched her red, frozen nose, putting the hat of her cloak on her, and tied a not-so-neat knot on her sharp little chin.

"If she really was the true princess of Great Xia Country and saw her husband being scolded, she’d probably be happy inside, why would she plead for me?

Besides, don’t say you didn’t do anything. That wretched brat of the Queen was about to cry and faint."

Yun Chunnuan then remembered that she did take action!

At that moment, her mind went blank; she was too agitated, not realizing she was the Queen’s daughter.

"Tch, if I’d known, I’d have hit a few more times."

Which brought about the man’s hearty laughter, "I was worried your kind heart would flare up, and you’d end up going to the palace to heal the Queen’s and Yelyu Nalan’s faces. Seems like that little wretch wasn’t wrong in that, what kind of pot fits with what kind of lid, such a fairy-like little demon is most suitable for me, hahahahaha!"

"You’re the demon! I’m not sick to go saving those two despicable, smoking fiends! I only saved Lian Qiao because she was hurt, all because of me, alright? I’m no Holy Mother, I don’t save just anyone."

Her chubby little mouth now pouted with dissatisfaction.

The two held hands, walking along the long imperial road, chatting as they quickly exited the gate of the Royal Palace.
