Reborn Young Lady's Peerless Grace

But the news spread so quickly and so vividly. It must be Princess Suyun who was behind it. She was so willing to throw herself into his arms that it was inevitable that most people would misunderstand her relationship with Du Zhijie.

The Second Prince might not agree to let a foreign princess marry a general from his own country, but Suyun insisted on doing so, and it was hard to say what would happen in the end. We had to prepare for this matter in advance.

Shen Wanqing's expression darkened completely. "Is the situation at the General's Mansion okay? Is General Du okay?"

She was not only worried about what would happen to Du Zhijie, but also that General Du had a hot temper and hated evil.

Linglong said, "Things are still quite peaceful at the moment. The guards at the General's Mansion are no pushovers. They will definitely protect the old general and won't let the little princess do whatever she wants."

Shen Wanqing nodded, took Jing'er and Tao'er Linglong and headed straight for the general's mansion.

Finally, she instructed Linglong: "Go and tell General Du about this."

Linglong nodded and flew out.

Jing'er was already rubbing her hands together as she sat in the carriage, "Miss, if that little princess makes a fuss later, you hide behind me and I will protect you."

Tao'er sat silently by the side and watched her.

Jing'er smiled awkwardly twice and couldn't help complaining to Shen Wanqing again: "Miss, what do you think that little princess wants to do? General Du doesn't like her, but she actually ran away to the old general. Could it be that she can't marry the young general, and now she wants to marry the old general in turn?"

Shen Wanqing shook her head. She was not sure whether Princess Suyun really liked Du Zhijie that much. She only knew that if Suyun dared to hurt General Du, she would be sent back to Zi Luo Kingdom. The conditions in Zi Luo Kingdom were harsh and cold, and there were so many princesses. If she just replaced one of them with a princess as her husband, those princesses would probably be overjoyed.

The carriage arrived at the general's mansion faster than usual. Shen Wanqing hurried to the mansion anxiously, but unexpectedly saw an unexpected scene.

The old general held the bamboo whip in his hand, his face was cold, and he didn't look like he was being bullied at all.

Princess Suyun's right sleeve was torn, and a whip fell to the ground not far from her. She looked angry, with a venomous look on her face that was unbelievable for her age. "I am a princess of a country, and you dare to hurt me? I will let your Second Prince punish you!"

The old general said coldly, "Even though you are a princess, it's only your sleeve that's been torn. If you try to hurt anyone again, I advise you to protect your face."

It was Princess Suyun who had come to provoke him, but no matter what she said or how she sarcastically attacked, the old general was unhappy, but this was a matter between two countries. He simply fulfilled his due courtesy and calmly served tea and snacks.

The feeling of powerlessness as if her fist hit cotton made Su Yun unable to hold back her anger, so she pulled out the whip from her waist and wanted to launch a sneak attack. Unexpectedly, the old general was well prepared. Instead of using the whip at close range, she directly swung the whip and wrapped Su Yun's right hand. The barbs on the whip cut her sleeve, and the knife was thrown to the ground.

Such a change stunned the butler beside him, but he was not afraid, he just felt relieved.

The old man finally regained his former appearance. Although he is old and not as flexible as before, he performed this set of movements as smoothly as flowing water!

Su Yun was shocked. She had investigated the old general's affairs before. Du Zhijie listened to the old general the most. She came to his house today just to have a good talk with the old general and ask him to persuade Du Zhijie. Unexpectedly, the old general was such a person. Like Du Zhijie, he was stubborn and refused to listen to anything.

Hearing the old general say this, she immediately covered her face with her hands and shouted, "You are bullying me because I am young. You are already an old man. I am a princess of a country. Marrying your son is an honor for your general's family. Are you really so old and confused that you don't know such a simple truth!"

"The glory of the General's Mansion is of course nothing for the Princess to worry about!"

Du Zhijie's voice rang out from behind. He ran to the old general with an anxious look on his face. "Father, are you okay? Were you hurt by her?"

Shen Wanqing didn't have time to say anything from beginning to end, so she had to stand aside with Jing'er and watch the show.

Wow, I just sent someone to notify Du Zhijie, and he came quite quickly.

Jing'er's eyes were sparkling. This was like the sketchbook coming to life. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart that the young general was so handsome at that moment!

Unexpectedly, Du Zhijie arrived so quickly. Princess Suyun suppressed her dissatisfaction and said in a tearful voice, "Young General, I came to the general's mansion as a guest, but I didn't expect the old general to hurt me. You must seek justice for me!"

Du Zhijie's brows furrowed when he heard her voice. He looked at Princess Suyun coldly, "Although my father is old, he can still distinguish between good and evil. It must be you, Princess, who is making trouble. Do you know where we are? This is the General's Mansion! Princess, have you forgotten how Zi Luo was defeated by this old general? How dare you come here and cause trouble!"

"Du Zhijie, you, you don't like me at all?" Seeing that Du Zhijie didn't care about getting hurt at all, Princess Suyun's eyes turned red.

"I, Du Zhijie, will only marry one person in this life, and that is Shen Wanqing. Qing'er is the best woman in the world. She is gentler and more beautiful than you. You can't compare to her in anything. Princess, please leave!" Du Zhijie spoke righteously, leaving Princess Suyun no room for any illusions.

Shen Wanqing, who was standing behind him, had her cheeks visibly reddened and a sweet feeling welled up in her heart.

She quietly tugged at Du Zhijie's clothes, signaling him to be more tactful in treating the princess, fearing that it would affect the peace talks.

Du Zhijie glanced at her, his eyes softened, and he said nothing more.

Princess Suyun was so angry when she saw the two people in front of her exchanging glances so openly that she burst into tears. She grew up being loved and pampered, with a cute and charming appearance. Many men in Zi Luo Country regarded her as their dream lover, but now she had met such a fool like Xiao Jue.

So she picked up the whip and ran out. She turned around and looked at Shen Wanqing again, glaring at her fiercely.

Jing'er glared back defiantly.

Princess Suyun snorted coldly and said, "Shen Wanqing, just wait, you won't be happy for too long." Then she left completely.

The maid beside her gave Du Zhijie a sinister look and quickly followed Princess Suyun.

Shen Wanqing felt a sense of crisis in her heart and asked Linglong to follow and see what was going on.

After Du Zhijie asked the court doctor to come and examine the old general, he found that there was nothing serious, so he asked his servants to take him back to the courtyard to rest.

Shen Wanqing and Du Zhijie were left alone. Du Zhijie also told her about what had happened in the past few days, hoping that she would not misunderstand him.
