Chapter 264 There’s Something Wrong with This Eunuch (20)
Xu Zijie looked at Dianhua behind him and said, "Hurry up and help General Cheng. Be careful not to fall."
Tinghua obediently walked over, stood beside Cheng Qian, and put his hand on his arm.
An expression of pain gradually emerged on Cheng Qian's face. Although he did not push Lian Hua away, his eyes were full of hurt when he looked at her.
At this moment, he was like an abandoned dog. The woman he loved most did not stand by him at the first moment, but went to the person he hated the most.
Linhua was a man of clever words and good debaters. After Xu Zijie left, he coaxed Cheng Qian into submission with just a few words.
Cheng Qian was confined to the general's mansion outside the imperial palace. He wanted Dian Hua to accompany him but the emperor refused.
Cheng Qian knelt in front of the old emperor's palace gate for a long time and could not get up.
When he was about to faint from kneeling, the old emperor asked Xu Zijie to come out and deliver a message.
Xu Zijie stood on the steps and looked down at him. Cheng Qian's miserable appearance was reflected in his beautiful eyes. "General Cheng, His Majesty has ordered that as long as the general is willing to hand over all military power, His Majesty will agree that you can marry Li Shilang's eldest daughter, Tihua, and you don't have to be confined to your house."
When Cheng Qian heard that the condition was to hand over the military power, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.
Handing over his military power would mean that he would only be a general in name only.
He turned around and looked at the charming Dihua who was standing behind him. Under the warm sun, Dihua looked at him with tears in her eyes, and there was lingering love in her eyes.
Cheng Qian seemed to have made up his mind. He looked at Xu Zijie firmly and said, "I, Cheng Qian, am willing to hand over all my military power in exchange for marrying Tihua."
After saying this, Cheng Qian took out the military token from his lapel and placed it on the ground.
Xu Zijie signaled to the people around him with his eyes, and the young eunuch standing beside him immediately went down, picked up the military token, and put it in Xu Zijie's hand.
"The general is a passionate man, and he will definitely be with Miss Ti for a long time in the future."
After Xu Zijie went in with the military token, Cheng Qian staggered to his feet from the ground.
Even if he was down and out, he couldn't let Xu Zijie laugh at him.
When he got up, Tinghua did not come over to help him but waited for him to get up slowly before she went over to him.
Her face was full of heartache, and her hand gently moved up to touch his face, "General, I'm always here."
The most important thing about a beautiful woman is that she has an irresistible face.
Cheng Qian nodded infatuatedly, "Don't worry, my dear mother. I will ask your father for marriage tomorrow. I will definitely give you a grand wedding and make you the happiest woman in the world!"
Li Hua nodded with emotion, looking like she was completely obsessed with Cheng Qian.
Soon Cheng Qian's men came to pick him up.
After Cheng Qian disappeared, Linhua's face instantly fell. She took out a handkerchief with disgust and wiped the places where Cheng Qian had touched.
But when another tall figure appeared in his mind, the corners of Linhua's lips couldn't help but curl up again.
She will soon become the most noble woman in the world.
The old emperor returned to his own palace, and Sang Tian felt extremely worried.
When she was leaving, the old emperor looked at her with such a wolf-like gaze that she was afraid he would follow her.
Fortunately, Xu Zijie intervened at the critical moment and she escaped.
But what confused her most now was why Qinglian hated her.
She asked Tiao Tiao to check and concluded that Qinglian liked Xu Zijie.
In fact, she was not surprised by this matter.
The male protagonist Xu Zijie has buffs all over his body. He looks rich and powerful, but he has never had any white moonlight or cinnabar mole.
Sang Tian suddenly felt under great pressure.
Although the heroine poses no threat to her for now, Qinglian is very beautiful and is also Xu Zijie's right-hand man.
Noticing that Sang Tian was a little upset, Tiao Tiao stepped forward to comfort her: "Host, don't be afraid. At least you still have an impressive figure."
