Manager Wang was still happy, saying, "Look at our family's physique, they don't look like an octogenarian at all."
It's been a long time since I've done this; it feels so good.
"father."
A familiar voice rang in his ears, and Eunuch Wang's villainous demeanor vanished. He pursed his lips and kept giving Alliance Leader Zhang meaningful glances, but Alliance Leader Zhang was too busy to notice.
"father."
"Hey, Xiao Cen Ang, what are you doing here?"
The old eunuch turned around and looked at his daughter, who was covered in blood and whose fan was still dripping crimson blood.
His own granddaughter was speechless, standing on the steps.
Holding the knife, he felt somewhat lost.
So, does that mean Cen's mother always goes easy on her when she hits her?
There's nowhere left for me to be needed. My father and brothers are almost done with their business, and my brothers-in-law Xiao Lanyi and Lan Tingche don't have many people left either.
Behind them were Alliance Leader Zhang and her maternal grandfather.
The middle is the hardest to attack, as it's easy to get surrounded, so Huo Xiaolong wanted to take charge of it himself.
Who knew that when her mother saw her maternal grandfather arrive, she twirled the fan so skillfully that it flew out in a flash and flew back in a flash, leaving a piece of his head missing.
Huo Xiaolong swore to God that his mother had never been like this before, not even when they were defending the city.
Back then, wars were protracted and required sustained effort. Today, that's not necessary. Her mother exerted her strength rapidly, using all her inner power. Before anyone knew it, Huo Xiaolong turned around and there was no one left to chop him down.
"Tell me your age! How old are you to still be fighting like this? Can't you just enjoy your retirement?"
Cen Ang wanted to lecture him but didn't dare to go too far, so his tone softened a bit.
"I was worried about you and my granddaughter, so I came here with Alliance Leader Zhang. I'll cling to the leader of the martial arts alliance; if we can't win, we'll just run away."
Grandpa Wang is an old man in his eighties.
At this age, even a fall can be quite serious.
He's still fighting there.
Cen Ang's head was throbbing, and the pain was intense.
She just wanted her elders to live a little longer.
It's true that my daughter has many miraculous medicines and pills, but they are just medicines, not elixirs. You can't just give someone a pill to bring them back to life after they've died.
An eighty-year-old man in a normal family would be at home playing with his birds. Who would be like him, coming back from Dongyu and then to the palace to quell the rebellion?
He's got the ability to do whatever he wants, he's completely finished.
But the woman still didn't say anything. Her godfather had spent his whole life serving people in the palace. He had a lot of skills, but he had nowhere to use them. At most, he could only protect himself.
Eunuch Wang was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to see Cen Ang being bullied and ostracized by a group of palace maids back then.
Back when Cen Ang didn't have martial arts skills, he was often locked in a cold storage room. If he hadn't been lucky, he would have died long ago.
That's why Eunuch Wang taught her kung fu. He couldn't be with Cen Ang for a lifetime, but he could with kung fu.
"After this matter is settled, you can retire comfortably in the manor."
The woman smiled brightly and spoke to the old man in front of her.
"Okay, okay, listen to my daughter."
Huo Xiaolong stopped looking in this direction and instead stood at the entrance of the main hall, staring at Yuwen Xuanhong, who looked completely bewildered and incredulous.
This was the first time he had seen Huo Xiaolong take action, and also the first time he had seen how the Zhenbei King's faction killed enemies on the battlefield.
This girl is the one truly destined for greatness.
"Your Majesty, we have annihilated the enemy troops. Please continue the trial!"
——The Prince of Zhenbei's Mansion
The ladies from Fengyue Tower were waiting in the mansion, feeling that someone should come to visit today.
Unexpectedly, the first one to arrive was Yuwen Sinian, the Eighth Prince.
As soon as everyone saw him, they all looked at Huanlu.
Our daughter is so adorable; even at this hour, people are still throwing themselves at her.
Huanlu frowned, her face full of displeasure. She felt that the Eighth Prince was inconsiderate of the occasion. It was one thing for him to make a fuss normally, but now, things could easily end up with everyone dead.
The girls at the brothel didn't stop them. Why would they stop them? It might be their last meeting.
The most important thing in life is to avoid leaving regrets.
Yuwen Sinian didn't stand on ceremony, but walked straight towards Huanlu. Upon seeing his beloved, the man called out her name.
"Greening the surrounding area".
Huanlu's expression clearly showed what she wanted to say. The young lady spoke:
"Yuwen Sinian, can't you be a little more discerning about the occasion? What time is it?"
"I did not come to you today to plead my case."
With an unusual calm on his face, the Eighth Prince looked at Huanlu and slowly said:
“I know I can’t persuade you, and I know I have no power to stop the Prince of Zhenbei from making his decision. I’m here today to talk to you about this.”
"If the Prince of Zhenbei wins this time, I will leave the capital and go out to see the world."
“From childhood to adulthood, I have been worshipped by the people of Great Yan, but I have done nothing for them. Apart from my status, I don’t know what I have to offer that is worthy of you.”
"Huanlv, if... you want to get married and have a home, then I will be different from how I am now. Could you please consider me first?"
The young woman, dressed in armor, leaned against a pillar and looked at Yuwen Sinian. She felt that this was unfair to him.
Wanting to change is a good thing, but it shouldn't be for his own benefit; he should be doing it for himself.
“Yuwen Sinian, you shouldn’t become better for me, you must do it for yourself.”
The man nodded, smiled at her, and said:
"good."
“But if the Prince of Zhenbei makes any mistakes this time, you can put a knife to my neck and threaten my father to let you leave the capital.”
"Don't worry, although I am not the crown prince, my two older brothers are not as good as me, and Father will definitely value me."
The maids and girls at the brothel stared wide-eyed. Could it be like this?
Isn't this just ridiculous?
Eighth Prince, isn't your love a little too profound?
