The General's Darling Is Delicate

Chapter 178 - 131: Love-Eating Gu Worm



"It seems to be a different eunuch from last time?"

Yun Chunnuan still remembered that the eunuch who came to the General Mansion last time had a very gentle manner and attitude.

One might even say sycophantic.

But this voice... although it had that sharp eunuch tone, it made one feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Indeed not." The man’s tall figure slowly stood up, a look of disdain and mockery on his face, "Just a beast raised in the Queen’s palace."

The Queen...

Yun Chunnuan instantly thought of the ugly Prince.

"Nuannuan, I will go see why the beast is here, you keep an eye on Jifeng."

He took a step, about to leave.

But he was held back by a small hand, "Will it be alright?"

In those dark, deep eyes, there was only tension and worry.

Even though she knew the Barbarian General already had his own ability to resist that troublesome Queen.

She was still worried.

Worried about the woman who had cast a deep shadow in his heart since childhood, now coming to the door, for what reason.

Whether he could resolve it, whether something might happen...

Upon hearing that sharp voice, Yelyu Lie’s heart, which had originally turned to ice, seemed to instantly melt.

His large hand gently rubbed the slender neck of the petite girl, "Don’t be afraid, she can’t do anything to me, just putting on a show of power with words."

"Do you know what it’s about?"

Yelyu Lie raised an eyebrow, looking at the giant black wolf on the floorboards, "Did you bite someone?"

"Woof!"

Jifeng seemed to understand, instantly giving its master an answer.

"Then, someone probably lost half their life. No wonder..." The sharply defined lips appeared somewhat sharp, slightly curled, as if they could pierce into one’s heart.

After she left, Yun Chunnuan gestured for silence to the large and small, black and white wolves, then pressed her little ear against the wall, carefully distinguishing the sounds from outside.

Since the door had been dismantled, even though she did not have astonishing hearing, she could hear everything clearly.

"General, it has been a long time, I hope you have been well." The old eunuch’s arrogant voice was very grating.

The Barbarian General probably felt that exchanging pleasantries with him was a waste of time, his thick voice extremely cold, "If you have something to say, say it quickly, if you have gas, let it out quickly. When this General enters the palace, how many times have you not been eavesdropping at the wall? Stop pretending to be so innocent!"

"You—how dare you! Today I am here on imperial orders, calling you General is an honor..."

Yun Chunnuan secretly peeked out and found that the Barbarian General did not indulge that eerily tricky old eunuch at all, and kicked him in the knee.

The old eunuch, failing to stand firm, fell with a thud, kneeling before the increasingly imposing man’s frame.

Then, he stepped on the old eunuch’s shoulder, "Let me guess, which idiot is about to die? Probably not the older one, Old Nine? Tsk, did something happen to his lifeline? No wonder he’s anxious. Is he dead? Need me to finish him off?"

"You, you, you—" The old eunuch was trembling with rage, "Haven’t we met face to face for years, and now you’re so conceited!"

Indeed, it had been years since they last clashed face to face.

Because after he became the Mighty General, it was always the Queen herself that showed up, not giving these dogs the chance to act up.

Yelyu Lie wouldn’t indulge him and fiercely kicked that powdered face.

Instantly, two crimson streams flowed from the eunuch’s pale face.

He was furious, he was anxious, "Your mother is still in the Queen’s palace! If you dare..."

"What did you say?"

The old eunuch climbed up from the ground, wiped the blood from his nose, and sneered, "I said, Concubine Nalan is currently in the Queen’s palace. If the General dares to act recklessly... hmph hmph!"

All the concubines in the palace indeed needed to pay their respects to the Queen daily.

But Mother, since moving into the Cold Palace, hadn’t needed to go daily, only during festivals...

Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve.

Yelyu Lie’s expression turned severe.

After the eunuch stood up, he fiercely kicked his chest, "If my mother loses even a single strand of hair, I’ll let the whole Shoukang Palace be buried with you!"

Not even waiting for the old eunuch to spurt blood, Yelyu Lie took big strides toward the door.

Suddenly, he stopped his steps, and quickly went to the small room to the west.

Seeing the little girl looking worried yet trying hard not to cause trouble, Yelyu Lie felt a pang in his heart. He tucked the stray hair behind her round and white little ear, his voice gentle, different from moments ago, "Nuannuan, don’t be afraid. I will enter the palace and no one can trouble me."

Yun Chunnuan wanted to ask if she was needed.

But she knew even if she went, it would be useless, perhaps even a burden,

Once the Barbarian General followed the eunuch away, she began to worry.

Jifeng and Big White seem to know, they didn’t cause any trouble the whole day, behaving obediently...

Yelyu Lie followed the elderly eunuch into the palace through the side gate and went straight to Shoukang Palace.

A woman dressed in splendid clothes had long been waiting in the hall. Seeing the boy who was bullied in his childhood and could be easily manipulated by her, now grown into a man standing tall and strong.

She hated him!

Hated that she didn’t stop that vile woman from sending him into the military camp.

She thought that cruel mother would abandon her bastard son, but she never imagined...

She was careless, she was truly careless.

"Where’s my mother?"

Yelyu Lie had no time to exchange pleasantries with these useless people. Once hot-headed, he lost his ability to think clearly.

He only remembered that his mother often got bullied by this woman in his youth and rushed directly to Shoukang Palace in anxiety.

The woman sat proudly on the throne, looking down as she spoke, "She paid her respects and left. Why, does a mother not have the right to see her own son?"

"Stop flattering yourself. Mother? You dare call yourself that!"

For the people of Shoukang Palace, ever since Yelyu Lie became the Mighty General, he no longer paid any heed to them.

He acted recklessly, doing as he pleased.

The woman on the throne was enraged by his attitude, fiercely slapping the handrest with a dragon head carved on it, and angrily rebuked, "Do you realize that the beast you raised hurt my Qi’er, crippling one of his legs? No matter what, you are Qi’er’s brother, how can you indulge..."

"Queen, you’re wrong in saying that." Before the woman could finish, Yelyu Lie interrupted her, "This Shoukang Palace, including everyone in it, has nothing to do with me. You’d better pray that Jifeng is unharmed, or I’ll bury everyone from Shoukang Palace!"

Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve; the custom in Bianliao Country is to ensure no unpleasant matters occur before or after the New Year.

If his little wife wasn’t anxiously awaiting him at home, Yelyu Lie truly would have crippled the Queen’s two foolish sons.

But not now.

He was also eager to check on his mother at Ningxiang Hall.

Looking at the woman on the throne, whose features were twisted in rage, Yelyu Lie felt delighted, "Then I won’t disturb the Queen anymore. By the way, Jifeng’s teeth are sharp, getting bitten might leave one half-crippled even if not dead. Queen, if you have the strength, have another child, the eldest is a waste, the ninth is crippled, tsk..."

The ’tsk’ sounded like a sharp sword, piercing deep into the Queen’s heart.

Seeing him about to leave, she angrily shouted, "Stop! An impudent beast like this, I must give him a good lesson on behalf of the King!"

Yelyu Lie found it ridiculous, seeing the palace’s door tightly closed, he kicked it fiercely.

Suddenly, his expression froze, his body stiffened instantly.

He knew all too well this feeling.

Yelyu Lie could not believe it, the dignified Queen of Bianliao Country used such a vile trick on him.

His face turned crimson, his hawk-like eyes bloodshot, his face grew so red it almost emitted heat, "You—"

As he spoke, he felt the turbulent flow inside his body growing wilder.

His feet gave way, his tall figure crashed directly onto the palace door.

The Queen, clad in luxurious attire, finally stood up from the throne slowly, "Nalan, your Prince has long coveted you, repeatedly taking you from the Imperial Palace to the General Mansion. He is truly worse than a beast.

This palace pities you, called you to Shoukang Palace, unexpectedly this bold beast dared to make trouble in this palace’s Shoukang Palace!

Truly shameless to the extreme!"

As she spoke, she gave a meaningful glance to the elderly eunuch who had gone to the General Mansion to fetch Yelyu Lie.

The eunuch summoned two young eunuchs, attempting to help the man who collapsed at the palace door stand.

But they couldn’t get close at all.

At this moment, a fierce beast dwelled in his heart. Despite his body being bewitched by some unknown force, his mind remained clear, keeping everyone away.

His mind was filled with the image of his little wife lying on the bed that day, soft and tender.

Her enchanting gaze, captivating soul, her flawless ice-sculpted jade bones, thinking of it made his body heat up even more.

Despite wearing a long jacket, he couldn’t contain it!

The woman who descended from the throne was stunned by this scene.

Bianliao indeed belonged to the Barbarian Land, the royal family was chaotic.

This Queen was once the Concubine of the former King; when the new King ascended, he abducted her, making her the new mother of the nation.

But her previously solid status was jeopardized by the Western Regions woman’s appearance!

Therefore, she constantly wanted to eliminate that mother and son!

But now... as a woman who had experienced... cough, X number of men, well-versed in such matters.

Looking at him... she actually felt her heart racing ’thump thump thump’.

"Mother..."

At this moment, a timid voice interrupted the woman’s amorous thoughts.
