The General's Darling Is Delicate
Chapter 215 - 148: If Killed, Then Killed!
CHAPTER 215: CHAPTER 148: IF KILLED, THEN KILLED!
’Smack——’
The word "little bastard" had just fallen, and before the old eunuch could call for someone, he felt a burning pain on his face!
He spat out a garble, finding a tooth mixed with fresh blood!
And the woman in front of him, with those knife-like eyes, seemed like a bloodless killing blade. "Little bastard? Then what is my father, the Great Xia Monarch, to you? It’s been less than two months since the peace treaty between Bianliao and Great Xia, and yet you dare to insult my monarch in front of this princess?"
Someone! Drag this old beast away and give him twenty lashes!
If he can’t survive and dies, let his master come personally to arrest this princess for questioning!"
In the General Mansion, the Hidden Guards had long been lying in wait in every corner, ready to strike.
When the general protected the country, these bootlicking eunuchs might be kneeling like dogs in front of some pampered master!
How is it that just a month after the general returns from the border to rest, these filthy mongrels come biting at us?!
Some had thought the Princess of Great Xia was gentle and useless, but this slap hit right in the heart of every soldier.
As soon as the general waved his hand, the main courtyard, originally surrounded by palace guards, was immediately encircled by a group of battlefield-hardened soldiers!
The old eunuch immediately panicked, with blood in his mouth, his speech was slurred, "Are you rebelling?! Someone! Someone! Quickly protect my humble self!"
Some palace guards, hearing this, were about to step forward.
However, upon even a glance from those sharp eagle eyes, even in the dark night, their legs turned to jelly.
They were only tasked with ensuring the safety of the royal family within the palace, having never even touched blood.
But the majestic Great General was different, with a robust and wild spirit! At this moment, fully asserting his dominance, even the curve of his lips was imbued with a deep-seated thirst for blood!
Everyone’s footsteps suddenly halted.
Holding swords, they appeared as mere toys, hesitating to move forward.
Yet amongst them, there were loyal dogs of the Queen.
Braving forward, they were met with a towering man who easily snatched away their swords.
His hands, steeped in blood countless times, acted like iron blades. With slight force, he snapped the sword in two and casually flung it at the dumbstruck person.
The sharp blade slid down from his nose, nearly splitting his face in half.
The man strolled leisurely, circling in front of the guards, "Your head guard, is it Na Jiezhe?"
"Replying to, replying to the general, yes!"
Some feared death, while others braved it.
As soon as he asked, there was a scramble to answer.
"Tell him to get over here and face me now!"
As his voice fell, someone turned and ran, like they’d just received an imperial decree.
"Princess, be careful!!!"
With a single turn from Yelyu Lie, the old eunuch saw his chance.
In such circumstances, if he didn’t seize a hostage to save his life, he would be dead in the General Mansion tonight!
He hadn’t faced that bastard head-on in so long, he had no idea how much he’d grown!
Thinking that flaunting the Queen’s name and bringing palace guards would let him run rampant in the General Mansion.
What a miscalculation!
Seeing the gentle Little Princess as easy prey, and knowing how much that bastard cared for her, he got the idea to take her hostage.
But the old eunuch never expected the soft-looking little girl to have such strength!
The moment he had her in his grip, her gentle hand firmly clamped onto his wrist.
Then, with a twist and a fierce tug, she broke his arm directly!
"Ah——"
The already sharp voice echoed in the General Mansion, more unpleasant than a pig being slaughtered.
Yun Chunnuan grabbed hold of his broken arm, stepping on his back with a bandit-like flair, forcing him to kneel, "Playing dirty tricks? Hmm?"
She raised her eyes, offering a reassuring glance to the man striding over with a worried face.
Then she swept her gaze across the palace guards, "This old beast tried to assassinate this princess, did you all see clearly?"
Everyone exchanged glances, unsure who answered first, then it became a unified response, "Yes... I saw it! It was Eunuch Su who struck first!"
"Eunuch Su tried to kill the General’s wife... No! The Great Xia Princess!"
"Very good." Yun Chunnuan smiled slightly, "This princess originally intended to punish you for your rudeness, yet you rush toward death!"
She released her grip, kicked him on his buttock as he howled, "Drag him away! Cane him to death!"
No one knew how her hands trembled beneath her firm voice.
She was going to kill.
For the first time, truly kill someone.
She knew how precious life was, and she knew he came under others’ orders.
But, if she showed any slight mercy today, the old eunuch would surely repay it a hundredfold in the future!
He was a palace veteran and the Queen’s most trusted attendant. She hadn’t fully grasped the King’s intentions at this point, and if this eunuch stirred trouble in the palace, it would only escalate matters.
Moreover, this filthy creature had once humiliated her husband so much!
Even her future mother-in-law’s tragically deceased daughter had his contribution...
Killed, then killed!
Death is not worth lamenting!
As soon as the words "cane to death" were spoken.
The old eunuch felt his ears buzz, staring in horror at the girl whose face now seemed as venomous as a snake, "How dare you! I am the Deputy Manager of the palace! I am... uh!"
Before he could finish, Yun Chunnuan’s eyes were covered by a pair of large hands.
She felt something warm on her face, burning her entire body into a tremble...
