Chapter 1227: Yuwen Ling's Transformation
"Strange, it's been so long. Why hasn't Sister Xiao Tao come yet?" In the living room of the general's residence, the servants brought by Yuwen Ling saw Yuwen Ling cry harder and harder, but Xiao Tao did not appear. They were all very anxious!
"Eh, Princess, why are you crying?" At this moment, Xiao Tao's voice entered everyone's ears.
When the servants saw Xiao Tao, it was as if they had seen their savior. They immediately rejoiced and whispered what the general had said to Xiao Tao.
Xiao Tao thought for a moment and shook her head at her companions. "I don't know what to say to the princess."
Then, she said angrily to Jiang Zhennan, "General, no matter what, we serve the princess. She has taken a fancy to you, and you should be thankful. Don't be so ungrateful and make the princess angry."
The butler's face darkened. The others looked at Xiao Tao in surprise.
Jiang Zhennan looked at Xiao Tao coldly and asked coldly," Who are you?"
Xiao Tao was stunned. She pointed at her nose and stuttered, "I... I... I am the princess' personal palace maid!"
When Jiang Zhennan heard this, he snorted coldly and said, "How dare a slave speak to me like this? Men, slap her!"
As soon as Jiang Zhennan finished speaking, a man in a soldier's uniform came forward and raised his hand to slap Xiao Tao.
Xiao Tao cried out in panic," Princess, help!"
Yuwen Ling finally came back to her senses when she was called by Xiao Tao. When she saw that someone was about to hit Xiao Tao, she immediately stopped them sternly," Stop!"
However, the soldier did not listen to Yuwen Ling at all. The moment he went up, he gave Xiao Tao two slaps, one on each side of her face!
Yuwen Ling was extremely furious. She shouted," How dare you?"
The soldier who beat her up said very seriously," Military orders are everything!" It meant that he only listened to the general's orders.
Therefore, if the general told him to make a move, he would make a move. Even a princess couldn't stop him.
Yu Wenling looked at Jiang Zhennan angrily." Jiang Zhennan!"
Xiao Tao was her personal palace maid, and hitting her was equivalent to slapping her face. Therefore, Jiang Zhennan had asked his subordinate to slap her personal palace maid's face in front of her, which made her extremely angry!
Jiang Zhennan didn't even look at Yu Wenling and said coldly," A slave dares to berate me and point fingers at me. I didn't ask anyone to drag her down and directly behead her. This is already mercy!"
Yuwen Ling trembled with anger when she heard that.
Was Jiang Zhennan trying to tell her that she didn't discipline her servant well?
"Pa!"
Yuwen Ling raised her hand and slapped someone!
It hit her personal servant, Xiao Tao!
Then, she scolded angrily," Dog slave, who gave you the right to be so disrespectful to the Great General? Apologize to the Great General immediately!"
Xiao Tao covered her face, which had been slapped, and said to Jiang Zhennan aggrievedly," General, I'm sorry!"
Yuwen Ling immediately said to Jiang Zhennan," Great General, I've already taught a servant who doesn't know the rules a lesson. I wonder if you can calm down now?"
Jiang Zhennan said coldly," Princess, you worry too much!"
Yuwen Ling glanced at the wine cup on the table. There was only one.
She immediately said to the butler," Butler, bring another glass!"
It was not good to disobey the princess's order, so the butler could only ask the servant to serve another wine cup.
After the servant brought a wine cup, Yu Wenling took the wine pot and poured wine into Jiang Zhennan's and her own wine cups.
Then, she put down the wine pot and picked up the wine cup. She gave one cup to herself and the other to Jiang Zhennan. She said to Jiang Zhennan very sincerely," Great General, it has been my fault for being rude previously. Have this cup of wine as my apology to you! Don't tell me you won't even give this princess face!"
Jiang Zhennan did not agree at all. Instead, he said coldly, "I can't afford to accept this from the princess!"
Yu Wenling's face immediately darkened as she shouted sternly," Jiang Zhennan, don't think that I'll let you trample on me just because I've taken a fancy to you! If you try me, I will immediately run to Imperial Father and ask him to bestow a marriage to us immediately. In the future, you will be bound to this princess for the rest of your life and will never be able to escape from this princess's palm!"
However, Jiang Zhennan was not moved at all. He coldly spat out, "Up to you!"
Yuwen Ling was immediately enraged. She also became stubborn and said arrogantly," Jiang Zhennan, I'm telling you, you will drink this cup of wine. You have to drink it even if you don't want to! Otherwise, this princess will do what she did three years ago and let everyone in the world know that the so-called War God General is just a coward who doesn't even dare to drink a cup of wine offered by the princess!"
Hearing Yuwen Ling's words, the butler and the servants of the General's Estate were furious.
"Great General is not a coward!"
"That's right. The Great General is not a coward. Don't think that just because you're a princess, you can insult our Great General at will!"
All of them angrily accused Yuwen Ling.
Yuwen Ling snorted in disdain." Hmph, if he's not a coward, why doesn't he dare to drink my wine? Could it be that he was afraid that this princess would poison him?"
Jiang Zhennan took the cup of wine from Yu Wenling's hand and said to her directly," Princess, after I drank this cup that you've offered in apology, you won't disturb me in the future, right?
Seeing Jiang Zhennan take the wine glass, Yu Wenling's eyes immediately lit up. Then, she nodded and said," Of course!"
Then, she said generously, "A relationship that is forced will not be happy!
"Since the great general has repeatedly emphasized to this princess that you have deep feelings for your fiancée. Then, this princess can only withdraw and help you two become lovers. How about it?"
Yu Wenling's words were forceful and generous. It was hard to imagine that she was the same person who had been pestering the great general and crying just now.
However, only she herself knew whether these words were true or false.
When Jiang Zhennan heard this, he nodded and said," I hope the Ninth Princess won't go back on her words!"
As he spoke, he picked up his wine glass and downed it in one gulp!
Seeing Jiang Zhennan drink the wine, Yu Wenling's face immediately revealed a smug expression. She thought to herself, 'Hmph, Jiang Zhennan, no matter how much you love your fiancée, you can't escape my grasp! After a while, your heart and eyes will be filled with me!'
Yuwen Ling watched as Jiang Zhennan drank the wine and sat down. She said," Great General, you don't mind if I have lunch at the General's Estate before leaving, right?"
Afraid that Jiang Zhennan would reject her, she added," Even if we can't be husband and wife, we can at least be friends!"
As she spoke, Yuwen Ling turned to the butler and said," Butler, bring another set of chopsticks for this princess!"
The butler looked at Jiang Zhennan hesitantly.
Jiang Zhennan immediately ordered her to leave." Princess, please leave! General Manor is not a suitable place for Princess to have a meal!"
However, Yuwen Ling started to get anxious!
