After conquering seven male favorites, the vicious heroine wants to run away

Chapter 220 Princess Wang Keeps Her Promise

Shi Nuanyu turned around and saw that the man had a black cloth covering his eyes, and she made a joke.

"Can you help me put my clothes on like this?"

Dan Baiyu nodded in agreement, but naturally, he couldn't agree in the end.

Life is not a storybook, and one cannot rely solely on perception.

Even after the maid helped her get dressed and left the room, she still saw a man's sour face.

Shi Nuanyu took his hand and led him downstairs step by step. "Alright, if you keep acting like this, the elders will say I'm bullying you."

He looked sullen and angry, just like a doormat.

Dan Baiyu's expression softened considerably, clearly pleased with her lover's comforting words.

A carriage was already parked at the entrance of the inn. After the two got in, he couldn't wait to kneel down on one knee and bury his face in her lower abdomen.

His resolute, handsome face rubbed against her lower abdomen, and Shan Baiyu's voice was hoarse and strained.

"Nuan Nuan, after you've met the elders, you must reward your husband generously."

Seeing each other every day and sleeping together every night, he could no longer restrain himself.

Shi Nuanyu pinched his ears in annoyance, "General Shan also has such a lustful side."

Having gotten used to being serious these past few days, he finally revealed his true nature.

The rubbing of his earlobe made his face burn even hotter, and he suppressed his irritation and pressed on with his question.

"OK?"

Shi Nuanyu looked at the man who was making advances with amusement and slowly leaned down to breathe into his ear.

"It depends on your performance."

The fragrance of roses wafted into my nostrils, stirring an unbearable itch in my heart.

Dan Baiyu looked up reluctantly, "Nuan Nuan agreed?"

"General, we have arrived at the General's Mansion."

The guard's voice interrupted their conversation.

Arrived!

Shi Nuanyu's relaxed heart tensed up again. "Get up quickly, we've arrived."

Receiving no answer, Shan Baiyu regretfully got up and, hand in hand with her, got off the carriage.

Two women stood waiting in front of the general's mansion, with no servants behind them.

The Shicheng General's Mansion was completely different from what Shi Nuanyu had imagined. There were no magnificent courtyards and high gates, nor were there many servants to attend to her. Even the two stone lions in front of the gate had lost their former color.

She had forgotten that this was Shicheng, the border fortress of Nanyue.

The two generals' faces bear the marks of time, but the determination in their eyes remains unchanged.

While she was observing the general's mansion, the Zhong family mother and daughter were also sizing her up.

Princess Nanyue was kind-hearted, unlike the tyrannical figure portrayed in the rumors.

Shi Nuanyu released Shan Baiyu's hand and stepped forward to approach the two generals.

They exchanged a glance and bowed in unison.

Shi Nuanyu hurriedly stopped her, saying, "Generals, I did not come as a princess."

She was there as a daughter-in-law, in the capacity of Madam Shan Baiyu.

Seeing that she didn't intend to hide it, Zhong Hong knew what she meant, but she couldn't just treat her as an ordinary daughter-in-law.

"Please, Your Highness."

Seeing this, Shi Nuanyu did not insist and followed them into the house.

Dan Baiyu, who was standing to the side, was completely ignored by the three of them, and helplessly shook his head and followed them inside.

"The general's residence is simple; I hope the princess will understand."

Zhong Changchun couldn't help but wonder why the princess would take a liking to her son, since Bai Yu had never smiled since childhood and could scare people to death if he stared at them.

What exactly did Princess Nanyue see in him?
Shi Nuanyu responded gently, "It has all the internal organs, I like it very much."

She was nervous before meeting the two generals from the Zhong family, but the nervousness subsided upon seeing them.

Now we realize that not all generals who fight on the battlefield are filled with murderous intent.

Zhong Hong suddenly spoke up, "Princess, halt."

Shi Nuanyu stood there, stunned.

The wind carried yellow sand that made it hard for her to open her eyes. When she could see clearly again, the two generals had already saluted.

"This humble general is Zhong Hong." "This humble general is Zhong Changchun."

"Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission and have not failed the late emperor's trust in guarding the southern border. I hope the late emperor will follow his last wishes and investigate the cause of General Shan's death."

Their voices were booming, each word a declaration, a protest for the two unjustly killed generals of the Shan family, a belated vindication.

Shi Nuanyu trembled, feeling sad for them and for the fallen soldiers.

In the original book, the two generals of the Shan family and more than a thousand soldiers did not die at the hands of the enemy, but at the hands of Nan Yue.

She slowly began to speak, “The Prince of Anchang, who plotted against the soldiers of the Shan family, is dead, and all those involved have been cut in half at the waist. The last wishes of the two generals have been fulfilled.”

However, there are many doubts about this matter, and she has not yet figured them out.

She kept the rest of her words to herself, sensing that Shan Baiyu didn't want them to know.

"died……"

Zhong Hong looked at her grandson for confirmation.

Dan Baiyu nodded, "Six months ago, the evidence of Anchang King's treason was conclusive, the truth of the Dan family army's wrongful case came to light, and Her Highness ordered the execution of the entire family, with all those involved being cut in half at the waist."

He deliberately suppressed the news of Prince Anchang's death, all for this day.

This matter was entrusted to the late emperor, and it should be concluded by the imperial family.

Zhong Changchun chuckled softly through his tears, "Dead, good riddance."

The fact that her husband and son died at the hands of Nan Yue has always been a source of deep sorrow for her.

Unexpectedly, the case was closed six months ago.

The two generals smiled at each other, and the gloom that had been building up for years disappeared.

"Thank you, Princess Nanyue."

Shi Nuanyu sighed almost imperceptibly and helped the two generals up.

"It is the royal family that has wronged the Shan family."

The original owner's later actions were even more disrespectful to the Shan family.

She was determined to stop their trip to Lingshan and ensure their survival.

“Grandmother, Mother, today I have brought my daughter-in-law to see you. If I keep bowing and scraping, wouldn’t that be a sign that I don’t know how to behave?”

Dan Baiyu helped the two up, and after they stood up straight, they knelt down on one knee.

“Grandmother, Mother, I love Your Highness. I cannot live without her. I beg you to grant my wish.”

Upon seeing this, Shi Nuanyu hurriedly knelt down as well, which startled the Zhong family mother and son, who quickly helped her up.

There is no reason for a monarch to kneel before his subjects.

This……

She was a little embarrassed.

Shi Nuanyu took a deep breath and humbly said, "I hope my grandmother and mother will grant my request."

The Zhong mother and daughter glanced between the two men, and it seemed as if the man was marrying off his son.

Moreover, Princess Nanyue has many male lovers. If Princess Nanyue becomes empress in the future, wouldn't their children be trapped in the palace?

It is said that no one knows a child better than their mother, and Shan Baiyu was well aware of his grandmother's and mother's concerns.

He spoke solemnly, "I would gladly accept it, and I hope that my grandmother and mother will grant my request."

Shi Nuanyu wasn't stupid; she naturally saw through their thoughts.

"Grandmother, Mother, rest assured. Even when I was the emperor, I would not have confined A-Yu to the palace. A-Yu is the great general of Nan Yue. Fighting on the battlefield is his lifelong dream. I will not let him waste his life."

Confining a natural-born general to a courtyard is not something a normal person would do.

"Besides, Ayu will always be free with me."

No one can predict what will happen in the future. If he falls in love with someone else, she will let him go.

Upon hearing this, Shan Baiyu frowned, surprised that Nuan Nuan had such thoughts.

He kept this in his heart, echoing her words, "My heart is stronger than gold."

Having said all that, they couldn't bring themselves to break up the couple.

Zhong Hong sighed, "I can't really control the affairs of young people," she said, then looked at Shi Nuanyu, "I hope the princess will treat my grandson well."

Zhong Changchun mimicked his mother's tone, saying, "I hope the princess will keep her promise."

Shi Nuanyu nodded sincerely, "A gentleman keeps his word."

Having received the promise, Zhong Changchun looked at his child with a hesitant expression.

"Come here, your mother has something to say."

With the support of her family, Shan Baiyu was overjoyed and no longer cared about the meaning behind her mother's words.
