Chereads / The General's Darling Is Delicate / Chapter 21 - Provocation

Chapter 21 - Provocation

On the other side, the banquet was still going on.

Banley was pestering Aqi, and she could not spare any effort to chase after the General.

Aqi drank a few glasses of wine, but his blurred eyes were fixed on the stone arch from time to time.

She was a little worried, but on second thought, the cleanup work was done. Even if the General found something strange, it had nothing to do with her.

Besides, with the General's temper, how could he be in the mood to listen to any explanation? Perhaps he was so angry that he was already 'punishing' that damn Central Plains girl!

However... She was lucky!

Aqi angrily gulped down another glass of strong wine. After she finished drinking, she subconsciously glanced at the stone arch door again, but the glass in her hand fell to the ground with a clang and shattered into pieces.

This sound startled the others, and they also followed Aqi's line of sight and looked over.

They saw their valiant and mighty General carefully supporting a slender figure at this moment.

More than ten rough men drank until their faces were red, and their eyes were blurred.

It was impossible to see clearly what that slender figure looked like.

They only saw a patch of white, so weak that it was as if a gust of wind could blow it over.

Tsk, it must be that Little Princess from the Central Plains, right?

Banley picked up his wine glass and stood up shakily, "Everyone says, hiccup-- the people of the Central Plains are the most courteous. The Princess is looking down on us Bian Liao people! Hiccup -- She still needs our General to personally invite her!"

The other men also chimed in.

"That's right! The people of the Central Plains are just pretentious!"

"General, the Princess of Great Xia looks down on us. Why do you have to be polite to her?"

"If I had to say, even this young lady is stronger than the Princess of Great Xia. General, why don't you reconsider your choice of wife?"

"Those who look down on us are not worthy to be the wife of our General!"

Usually, Ye Luilie treated these men who had gone through life and death with him like brothers. They did not know etiquette or propriety. Even though they knew that the girl in the General's arms was the Princess of Great Xia, they did not shy away from talking about it.

They even urged their General to take a maidservant as the General's wife and not the Princess of Great Xia.

It could be said to be a blatant provocation.

Yun Chunuan had never seen such a scene before. A dozen men who were as strong as oxen and with big beards sat there and pointed at her. Each of them looked down on her...

She stopped in her tracks and suddenly hesitated. She did not want to go forward.

She felt like a little lamb that had fallen into a wolf's den for no reason.

Yun Chunuan did not know what was waiting for her. The unknown was the scariest. She firmly believed this.

The big hand around her waist suddenly tightened, as if it was warning her.

Yun Chunuan glared at him hatefully, only to see that pair of glazed eyes that were sparkling as if they were encouraging her.

Oh, so they were trying to give her courage?

Yun Chunuan retracted her angry gaze, took a deep breath, raised her sharp chin, and slowly walked into the banquet hall.

Regardless of whether she left or stayed in the future, since she had used someone else's body, she could not lose face.

I am the Seventh Princess of the Great Xia Kingdom.

I am the Seventh Princess of the Great Xia Kingdom.

I am the Seventh Princess of the Great Xia Kingdom.

She repeated the important things three times. Yun Chunuan repeatedly tried to mentally prepare herself.

The banquet hall was simply an open-air courtyard with a few tables. It was enough to see the straightforward and bold personality of the Bian Liao people. No one felt that it was inappropriate. Even the king's banquet was like this.

Ye Luilie changed to holding Yun Chunuan's hand.

Her soft and boneless little hand fell into his warm palm, immediately making his's heart go wild.

His rough fingers rubbed against the back of his delicate hand, and Yun Chunuan rolled her eyes at him.

Ye Luilie did not get angry. He winked at her and did not do anything excessive.

This scene happened to fall into Aqi's eyes.

Her worry and fear turned into jealousy instantly. Staring at that flawless face, Aqi clenched her hands tightly. At this moment, she regretted that she did not slash the Princess's face because she was too anxious!

Vixen!

She only knew how to seduce men with her face!

What made Aqi feel like she had a bone stuck in her throat was what happened next.

The man she adored held the woman's hand and led her to the seat of honor.

She sat on the main seat while the General casually added a stool next to her.

As if he did not like that the stool was too cold and hard, he ordered people to get thick furs and put them on it...

"Ah!"

More than ten rough men were dumbfounded

Seeing the General's actions, everyone was dumbfounded.

How was this the General who said, 'F*ck the people of the Central Plains'? 

"General! What do you mean by this? Are you humiliating us?"

"Only the General can take that seat!"

"General, have you heard the story of that country-wrecking temptress from the Central Plains?"

Everyone stood up to express their dissatisfaction.

The Central Plains was a woman, and she was sitting at the leader's seat. It was purely an insult!

Yun Chunuan did not know that a seat was so particular. The confidence that she had just built up was somewhat shaken.

However, Ye Luilie patted the back of her hand lightly and used his eyes to signal her not to move.

He had never cared about trivial matters, nor did he care about matters in the back house. However, someone dared to openly go to his room and lay their hands on his woman!

This made Ye Luilie extremely angry.

He was a little scared. If there was a next time, she would not even have the ability to protect herself. Would she be killed by someone?

Ye Luilie's gaze passed through the crowd and landed on the woman next to Banley.

Before she could hide the jealousy in her eyes, he saw it clearly.

Ye Luilie curled his lips, but his smile could not reach his eyes. "What's your name?"

Aqi, who had lowered her head, immediately looked up.

Because his mother was the General's wet nurse, she was like a rich young lady in the General's residence. She was tyrannical and had even taken the initiative to punish the General's concubine.

Therefore, Aqi did not think that the General would blame her for a woman from the Central Plains.

She was just a little sad that the General did not remember her name.

However, it was not too late to notice her now!

"General, this servant's name is Aqi. I used to play with you when I was young. You even hugged this servant before."

She lowered her head shyly, crossed her hands in front of her, and rubbed the corners of her clothes shyly.

Anyone with eyes could see that she was interested in the General, and she was flirting with him.

However, the General was calm.

"Come here." Even his tone was calm.

Aqi raised her head and glanced at Ye Luilie, as well as the woman from the Central Plains who was indifferent to his words.

Aqi was a little puzzled, but she still took small steps forward.

"General..."

As soon as she opened her mouth, he threw a bunch of grass roots with mud on them onto her feet.

"Is this yours?"
