Chapter 47 A Lifetime of Glory and Peace (16)

After pondering for a while, Shen Yun suddenly had a flash of inspiration, as if he had discovered something new and interesting.

2345 spoke tremblingly, "Host, are you...?"

Shen Yun clapped his hands suddenly and said loudly, "Brother, there's no need to choose. Why don't we let Rong An go?"

2345 shut up completely, and was even a little dazed, with a slight urge to die.

Gu Changjin was surprised and doubtful, wondering if she had misheard. Did all the men in the dynasty die if a princess went to the battlefield?

However, it's also possible that Rong An said something wrong. Indeed, Rong An has been acting strangely these past two days, so he must have said something wrong.

Gu Changjin said gently, "Rong'an, I told you before that you should think before you speak. Look at you, how old are you? How can you still make a mistake?"

Shen Yun paused for a moment, then continued, "Brother, you heard me right. What Rong An just said is indeed true. Going to the battlefield is a done deal."

Gu Changjin slammed his hand on the table with a "bang," and the fine inkstone was shaken so badly that it fell to the ground and shattered into eight pieces.

Xiao Tai heard the commotion and immediately called out to ask inside, but Gu Changjin yelled at him to shut up.

Seeing her stubborn expression, Gu Changjin had a terrible headache. "Nonsense, Rong An, this is no joke. You can do anything but this." She had thought Rong An had no feelings for Nangong Yu anymore, but now it seemed that everything she had done before might have been out of spite.

Thinking this way, Gu Changjin felt a little unhappy. He had originally planned to release Nangong Yu in two days, but now it seemed that keeping him locked up was not a bad idea.

“Brother, it’s no use sending anyone over there now. The Nangong family has been stationed there for many years. Even without the Tiger Tally, they still have a certain amount of prestige among the soldiers. If you suddenly change to someone else, I’m afraid they won’t be able to win people’s hearts.”

Gu Changjin was speechless. “Whether this can convince the public is something I should consider. Rong’an, you are a woman. It’s one thing for you to talk nonsense in front of me normally, but what if you get married in the future…” He paused, frowned strangely, “If you still talk like this after you get married, even I can’t protect you.”

2345: [Host, are you kidding me? Last time was one thing, but what about this time if you go to the battlefield? What will happen to the mission?] 2345 was stunned, completely unaware of what its host was thinking. Who exactly is the host? How could it not understand her thoughts?

But if it's really that powerful, why bother following this broken system... ugh... why do tasks with an omnipotent system?

I'm so full and have nothing better to do.

Shen Yun's tone was suppressed, with a slight smile, "Yes, it's just that we're full and have nothing better to do."

2345 stammered, "[Host, how did you know what I'm thinking?] That's impossible, it's just... it's just..."

"Just what?"

The fluffy ball in the space instantly spun itself around like a washing machine. [N-nothing?]

Gu Changjin walked down, still looking as handsome as ever. Since it wasn't court time, he was only wearing a simple bright yellow dragon robe, with two long strands of hair braided into small braids and tied up high at the back of his head.

A bright yellow python robe, I've got it. "Rong'an, did you hear me speaking to you?"

Shen Yun looked obedient. "Rong An was just joking. Please don't take it to heart, Your Majesty."

Gu Changjin had a lot to say, and was about to speak, but seeing this, she could only swallow her words. "You really think so?"

Shen Yun was very impatient, but she still put on a coquettish expression and said in her very sweet voice, "Your Majesty, what Rong An said is true. We are siblings, how can you not believe me?"

Despite feeling extremely uncomfortable, Gu Changjin nodded and said yes, "Among these people, is there anyone you like?"

"It's not about choosing a general, it's about choosing someone I like?"

Gu Changjin frowned. “The thing Father Emperor was most worried about before he passed away was Rong An’s marriage. Now, Nangong Yu…” He glanced at her when he mentioned the name, and seeing that she didn’t do anything special, he continued, “That dog Nangong Yu is not good enough for you. I will naturally choose a new consort for you. That way, Father Emperor can rest in peace in the afterlife.”

She could rest in peace even in the afterlife. Shen Yun pondered these words carefully and suddenly felt that the art of language was truly wonderful. She didn't know whether the original owner's father was at peace while he was alive, but he must have been quite uneasy after his death.

"What consort? Your Majesty, please spare Rong An. There are certainly good men among them, but they are absolutely not worthy of Rong An. The husband Rong An wants must be at least as rich as a country and capable of fighting against thousands of troops with his bare hands."

Gu Changjin looked at her silently, his eyes subtle, "Rong An, are you...?"

2345 was overjoyed; was this a sign of something going?

"Do you intend to never get married?"

2345: Ha, serves him right for being single forever.

Shen Yun: "What are you saying? But as you know, my brother, I only recently broke off my engagement with Nangong Yu, and I don't have the mind to think about this matter anymore. If you think I'm too much trouble in the palace, how about you appoint me as a mighty general to attack the barbarians? How about that?" She's still young and not in a hurry to get married, unlike some people who need to have offspring to carry on the family line.

He has no concubines in his own harem—no, he should say he's still a virgin—yet he has the audacity to lecture on this matter. I've never seen such a shameless person.

"Go, go back to your palace. Don't bother me here. Stay in your palace for the time being and don't go anywhere." Gu Changjin felt a little angry, but he couldn't let it out, which made him feel suffocated when he spoke. His sister's existence was meant to drive him crazy.

"Fine, I'll go back then. Why are you talking so fiercely? It's like she came here on her own initiative. If you're so capable, then don't call her over again." Thinking this, Shen Yun didn't bother with formalities and stormed out the door.

The eunuch peering out the door was so frightened that he immediately knelt down.

Seeing this, Gu Changjin flung his sleeves and looked at the names written on the Xuan paper. He felt increasingly annoyed. He had already decided who would go. The person he chose here was just an accompaniment. He would just take advantage of the military merit and be granted a rank. But now Rong An disagreed, and he couldn't force her to go to the wedding.

Furthermore, upon closer examination, even considering all these people's character and appearance combined, his sister is still not a suitable match for him.
