The Tales of a Blessed Daughter-Chapter 98 - He Has No Obligation to Help You

Gu Ruoyun curled his lips into a smile, “But this time, the military power in my hands has been taken away by the Emperor himself. I really don’t have any face to take it back. So, this matter is out of the question.”

He then gave the order for them to leave.

The ministers looked at Gu Ruoyun’s back and cried out in unison.

Su Yan watched this scene and felt that it was really ironic.

They were the ones who had tried their best to seize the military power. Now that the enemy had come to the border, they were also the ones who wanted Gu Ruoyun to take back the Commander’s Seal.

How shameless.

Su Yan stopped in her tracks. Gu Ruoyun also stopped and lowered his head to look at her.

Su Yan smiled at Gu Ruoyun and turned to look at the ministers who were unwilling to leave.

The ministers’ eyes lit up with hope.

Su Yan calmly said, “Gu Ruoyun has no obligation to help you guard the border. When you were thinking about taking the Commander’s Seal, you should have made relevant preparations.”

The ministers did not expect Su Yan, a woman, to be so bold as to make things clear. They were all stunned.

Gu Ruoyun hugged Su Yan and laughed as he led her away.

Su Yan was still a little unhappy.

Gu Ruoyun smiled, “Little girl, I’m not even angry about this. Why are you so angry?”

Su Yan frowned and scolded him, “Why are you so heartless?”

Gu Ruoyun smiled, “I’ve been wandering around the military camp since I was twelve years old. If I had kept everything on my heart, I would have died of anger long ago.”

Su Yan fell silent.

She could not imagine Gu Ruoyun’s previous life.

Gu Ruoyun patted Su Yan’s little head and said, “Why are you so sad? I only hope that my Princess Consort can be happy.”

Su Yan’s nose crinkled and she almost cried.

She threw herself into Gu Ruoyun’s arms to avoid the awkwardness.

Gu Ruoyun comforted Su Yan by patting on her shoulder.

A quiet warmth flowed between the two of them.

The officials carefully considered Gu Ruoyun’s meaning. Was it because he had been dismissed by the Emperor, so felt that he had lost face?

The officials, who thought that they had found the reason, stood in the Imperial Court in high spirits.

They threw this question to the emperor.

The Emperor’s face darkened as he stared at the chattering officials below.

He roared angrily, “Are you trying to tell me to apologize to a subordinate?”

The officials all stopped speaking.

It was obvious that the Emperor was furious. If they continued to speak, they would be courting death.

The Emperor looked at the many officials in the Imperial Court but there was no one who could replace Gu Ruoyun.

He cursed angrily, “A bunch of good-for-nothings.”

He flicked his sleeves and left.

As soon as the Emperor left, the officials were relieved.

As long as the emperor did not ask them to go to the battlefield, the rest of the matters would not be their responsibility.

The Emperor returned to the imperial study and flew into a rage.

He chased all the servants out but they did not dare to leave. They waited at the door.

When they saw Elder Zheng walking over from afar, it was as if they had seen their savior.

Elder Zheng gently gestured at them and entered the Imperial Study.

The Emperor, who was throwing a tantrum, did not curse when he saw that it was him.

Elder Zheng heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that the Emperor was still somewhat rational and was not muddled by anger.

“Your Majesty, this matter is actually not difficult. Guang Pingwang is only putting up a front. We will only have to bestow some rewards on him, and give him an opportunity to extricate himself from his awkward position. When the time comes, he will be out leading troops, won’t you be completely in charge in the capital.”

Seeing that the Emperor’s expression had improved, Elder Zheng continued, “Now that we can not be without him, let’s just send him out. Out of sight, out of mind. He can even help us guard our house.”

When these words were said, the Emperor laughed out loud. fr𝚎e𝙬𝚎𝚋𝚗૦ν𝚎𝒍.c૦m

Finally, the rain had passed and the sky was clear. The entire palace had returned to its original state.

The Emperor bestowed rewards on Guang Pingwang, and they were carried into the Guang residence like flowing water.

An Yi looked at the little eunuch who came to deliver the rewards and was speechless.

The little eunuch felt his scalp go numb from being stared at.

For the first time, he felt that delivering the rewards was like confiscating the property.
