Amorous S*ave Girl - Chapter 22
Chapter 22 : The general refuses to marry (Part 1)
General Han had just returned to the General's Mansion after the morning court. His head was still aching from the hangover. He was very drunk last night. First, he knew that Tao'er was overly happy with his affection, so he was so unrestrained. The second reason is because he doesn’t want to give the Queen Mother a chance to ask for the marriage. If the Queen Mother says it in front of so many ministers, it will be difficult to take it back. No one will be able to step down, and the Queen Mother’s temper will most likely drag him down and behead.
"General, Eunuch Liu is here and waiting in the hall!" The guard respectfully saluted General Han.
"I got it! Go down!" After saying that, General Han cheered up and walked to the hall with steady steps.
As soon as Eunuch Liu saw General Han, he immediately put down the tea bowl in his hand, covered his chest, and said in a high-pitched voice that was neither male nor female, "Oh, General Han, you're really a mighty and handsome man, and is worthy of everyone's heart beating wildly!"
There's really nothing to be happy about being praised by a eunuch, instead it actually makes General Han very sick!
General Han reluctantly raised the corner of his mouth to pretend to be a smile, "Eunuch Liu, thank you very much. I wonder why you came here this time?"
"The Miscellaneous Family invites General Han to the palace for an audience with the Queen Mother! If the General has nothing to do, he should follow the old sl@ve into the palace as soon as possible!" Eunuch Liu smiled and swept away the dust in his hand, bending down to make a gesture of invitation.
He was able to hide from the first day of the lunar month but not from the 15th day of the lunar month. General Han rubbed his temples with a headache and said, "Please lead the way!" Then he helplessly followed Eunuch Liu into the palace to see the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother is sitting upright, looking very serious. Due to the proper maintenance, the charm of her youth can be vaguely seen. There are two little maids waiting on the side carefully.
"This General greets the Queen Mother! May the Queen Mother lives a thousand years!" General Han knelt down and saluted.
"General Han Pingshen! I asked to see you today because of a very important matter!" The Queen Mother smiled politely and then said: "The third princess is very fond of General Han. A mighty general should be worthy of a delicate one. Princess, heroes have been paired with since ancient times. The Ai family wants to facilitate this beautiful marriage. I wonder what General Han thinks? "
"I'm grateful for the Queen Mother's love. However, I'm so immoral and incompetent that I really don't dare to reach out to the princess!" General Han quickly knelt down and bowed.
"General Han is too modest. Could it be that he already has someone he likes?!" asked the Queen Mother.
"Yes!" General Han nodded.
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. You can be married to both of them. The princess is the older one and she can be the younger one. It is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines!"
"No, Queen Mother! I can't marry the third princess!" General Han was a little excited.
The Queen Mother felt it was really strange. If it were any other man who could marry the beloved, powerful and noble princess, they would have been so grateful that they would shed tears of gratitude. What happened to General Han? With patience, the Queen Mother asked in a tempered tone: "Why can't you marry the third princess?"
General Han's taut and broad forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and veins protruded on the back of his hands, as if he was trying his best to suppress the pain and struggle in his heart, suppressing himself from telling the real reason.
"Why don't you reply?! Is it possible that the third princess is not worthy of General Han?!" A look of anger appeared on the Queen Mother's face.
"Of course not!" General Han said with difficulty.
"Since it's not the case, then don't refuse anymore! This matter is settled! Okay, General Han, you can retreat. The Ai family is tired too!" The Queen Mother waved her hand and said.
"I, this General, begs the Queen Mother to take back your order!" General Han still knelt down.
"Bold! Han Shiping! You have refused and disobeyed me again and again today.
You don’t take the emperor and the Ai family seriously?! "The Queen Mother roared angrily, with an expression as if she wanted to eat someone.
"I don't dare! I just beg the Queen Mother to take back my life!" General Han still begged the Queen Mother without giving up.
"Hmph! I don't dare! Come on, drag Han Shiping out with two hundred imperial sticks!" The Queen Mother sneered, "If you had died, the Ai family would have taken back their lives!"
