Cut off my tendons in my hands and feet to make me marry? Prepare to die!

After sunset, the night fell over the Dingbei Palace. The solemn and dignified mansion was located on a quiet street in the capital. The house with five courtyards was not particularly eye-catching in this street where only the rich and powerful lived.

The palace was brightly lit, and soldiers were patrolling the courtyard with steady steps and alert looks.

In the martial arts training ground, the cold light of weapons flickered in the darkness, as if telling of past glory.

In the main hall of the palace, candlelight flickered. Dingbei King Yueyuan sat on a tiger-skin chair, flipping through a book on military strategy, his brows sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed.

He has a thin and handsome face and a tall stature, and his eyes still show the extraordinary charm of his youth.

Only his legs were broken at the knees, his hair had turned gray, and he looked like a dragon with its claws lost, leaving no room for regret.

A breeze blew outside the window, the leaves rustled, and the occasional call of one or two night owls added to the tranquility of the night.

Next to him sat Yue Zihuan, who was dressed in moon-white brocade clothes. His handsome face seemed elegant and humble, but anger was hidden in his eyes.

Yue Ran was such a troublemaker. He had clearly reminded her on the street, but she still accepted the reward from Emperor Shengwen!

How dare she?

The cavalry general is a second-rank official. How could a yellow-haired girl like Yue Ran be so worthy of such a title? She had only fought in wars outside for a few years.

His mother had served his father diligently for many years, and was only last year named the consort and given the third-rank rank.

I thought my mother could be proud in the palace, but I didn't expect that Yue Ran accepted the reward and my mother could do nothing to her.

In addition, Yue Ran asked His Majesty for the grace of marrying freely. When the news came, my mother was so angry that her chest hurt and she couldn't eat dinner.

The noble ladies in the capital have always looked down on my mother's background. Yue Ran asked for this favor, and my mother was really unable to make any move on the marriage issue for a while.

"Father, my elder sister has accepted all the rewards from His Majesty. I am afraid that our Dingbei Palace will be in a more difficult situation in the future."

Yue Zihuan spoke softly and raised his eyes slightly to look at King Dingbei.

Yue Yuan put down the military book in his hand without commenting and looked outside the main hall:

"Your elder sister hasn't come back yet?"

Dinner had already been eaten, and Yue Ran did not even have dinner in the palace after the court was dismissed.

Upon hearing this, Yue Zihuan smiled with an ambiguous smile:

"My son heard that my elder sister went to the gate of the capital to meet the orc after the court was dismissed."

"I guess my elder sister must feel bad about torturing Hall in front of everyone, so she is now anxious to appease the orc."

Everyone in the capital city knew that before Yue Ran went to war, he insisted on forming a pact with the sickly young werewolf master, and even took him with him to the battlefield.

Today, Yue Ran's heart must have been broken into eight pieces when he whipped Hall for the sake of his own face at the city gate.

He returned to the capital with great fanfare, but had not returned to the palace to see his father in quite some time. How embarrassing it would be if the news got out.

Yue Zihuan sneered in his heart.

As the father and son were talking, the outer courtyard of Prince Dingbei's mansion suddenly became lively.

The excited voices of the servants could be heard faintly in the wind.

"The princess is back!!"

Yue Yuan immediately looked up, excitement showing on his face, tears flashing in his old eyes.

Yue Zihuan pursed his lips when he saw this and quickly stood up:

"Father, I will go and take a look."

Before he left the front hall, a maidservant ran to the main hall to announce the good news:

"Your Majesty, Young Master, the Princess will be here soon."

Yue Zihuan had a faint smile on his face, and his eyes swept across the smiling maids and servants, with a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

The maid who reported the news felt a chill on her back and quickly suppressed her joy, lowered her head and stood aside.

In just a short while, a tall and slender figure entered the yard and strode towards the main hall.

After court was dismissed, Yue Ran went to the Dingbei Army camp outside the city and had dinner with the soldiers. Then he leisurely took Hall back to the Dingbei Palace.

She was wearing a red robe and golden armor, and her bright red cloak fluttered in the wind as she moved. Her whole body was shining in the moonlight, like a Valkyrie, and no one dared to look directly at her.

Yue Zihuan nodded modestly: "My elder sister finally has time to come back..."

Before he finished speaking, Yue Ran had already passed him in one step, rushed directly to Yue Yuan, knelt on one knee with a plop, and shouted softly:

"Father, my daughter is home."

There was a choking sound in his voice.

Yue Yuan raised his hand with tears in his eyes, and trembling slightly, he touched the wound on Yue Ran's cheek, his heart aching:

"My Ranran, father is so sorry for you..."

His daughter, who was as beautiful as a flower, had such a wound on her face. If there wasn't a single useful man in the Dingbei Palace, why would a girl like her go to the battlefield!

Yue Ran looked up at her haggard and old father, unable to confide the grief in her heart to anyone else.

To the father, it was like they hadn’t seen each other for several years.

To her, the two of them, father and daughter, could only meet once after life and death.

In her previous life, she was sent to marry a foreign prince because her martial arts were abolished. Her father was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot. Yue Zihuan controlled the Dingbei Palace tightly, and the concubine Song did not even allow the father and daughter to meet for the last time.

I don’t know what my father will be like when the news of her death comes.

Yue Ran raised the back of her hand to wipe away the tears on her face and held King Dingbei's hand.

She was shocked again by this grip. When did her father's arms become so shriveled?

The arms of the tall and mighty King Dingbei in her childhood memory had become so skinny.

Yue Ran blamed herself a lot. In her previous life, she fell into traps one after another as soon as she returned to the capital. First, she was betrayed by Hall and her heart was broken. Then, Chu Hantian designed to cut the tendons of her hands and feet. She was so confused that she didn't even realize that her father's health had deteriorated to this extent.

What has Concubine Song been doing in recent years?

Yue Ran suppressed her anger and patted the back of Yue Yuan's hand soothingly:

"Father, I am fine. I will be by your side and be filial to you from now on."

Yue Zihuan watched his father talking to Yue Ran quietly, still with a faint smile on his face, but he gently clenched his fists behind his back.

When Yue Ran returned home, he refused to even call him "brother" and it was as if he didn't exist in his eyes.

It doesn’t matter, she won’t be arrogant for a few days.

Yue Yuan calmed down and let Yue Ran go back to her yard. After Yue Ran turned around, Yue Yuan couldn't help but remind her:

"Ranran, your orc is extremely disrespectful to you. You must not continue to indulge him and be soft-hearted."

His daughter is excellent in every way, except that she is too accommodating to the werewolf master.

It is definitely not a good thing for a general to have such a weakness.

Yue Ran turned around and smiled when she heard this:

"Don't worry, father. I know what to do with Hall."

Watched Yue Ran leave.

Yue Yuan and Yue Zihuan each had their own thoughts.

When Yue Zihuan heard that Hall had been sent to Yue Ran's Tingtao Garden, he laughed in his heart.

There is something unclear between that orc and Yue Ran. If they get pregnant, it would be a huge joke.

He didn't need to think about it, Yue Ran could ruin his own reputation on his own.

Listening to the waves.

Yue Ran took a shower, changed into a casual skirt, and combed her hair into a simple bun. After feeling relaxed, she asked:

"Where's Hall?"

The two head maids in Tingtao Garden, Diaolan and Yuqi, looked at each other. Diaolan stepped forward and said:

"My Lady, Hall is in the side yard, refusing to eat, drink or take medicine. He said...he said that unless you kneel down and apologize to him, he will never see you."

After saying this, both Diaolan and Yuqi showed annoyance on their faces.

What can I do? The princess treats the orc as her own heart, what can a maid do?

Yue Ran looked in the mirror and saw a beautiful face with a glaring scar on it and her red lips slightly raised.

"Pass my order, all guards outside the side yard should be withdrawn."

Diaolan opened his mouth to speak, but Yuqi pulled him back, so he could only nod silently.

In the side courtyard, all the female soldiers guarding outside the door evacuated.

Hall lay on the couch with his eyes open, the whip wounds on his body already scabbed over.

He was waiting for Yue Ran to come and apply medicine to him personally.

Listening to the noise outside the door, the mockery in his eyes was evident.

It seemed that Yue Ran, that woman, was afraid of being seen kneeling, so she withdrew everyone.

It was a nice thought. He wouldn't let her go easily.

The door creaked open and was then bolted tightly.

Hall closed his eyes, turned to face the wall, and said coldly:

"Kneel down or get out."

Yue Ran looked at the werewolf's back and couldn't help but sigh at his stupidity in his previous life.

Her indulgence of Hall actually made him think that she would really kneel down to him?

“Hall, you are really wronged by being by my side.”

Yue Ran's voice came from behind, and Hall looked at the wall with a grim look in his eyes.

Of course he felt wronged! He just wanted to stay with Xiaolou!

If he wasn't too weak and afraid that he couldn't protect Xiaolou, why would he force himself to follow Yue Ran?

"So tonight, I'll fulfill your wish."

Yue Ran continued.

Something sounded wrong to Hall.

After all this nonsense, why didn't she kneel? Accomplishment? Accomplishment of what?

Hall couldn't help but turn around, but before he saw Yue Ran's face, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest!

Yue Ran’s face was pale, and golden light flashed in his eyes.

If the contract is terminated by force, both the master and the servant will feel heartbroken.

But this pain is better than having her heart meridians broken and her martial arts skills crippled.

This time, it was Hall's turn to have his heart meridians broken!
