Quick Transmigration: Hosts, We're Only Responsible for Counterattacking

Chapter 62 A Lifetime of Glory and Peace (31)

Before long, the people in the shadows saw that she stopped moving, exchanged glances, and then came out one after another.

They surrounded her.

Shen Yun didn't dodge, but leaned against a tree with a green blade of grass in his mouth.

In broad daylight, even if you're doing something bad, you don't need to wear all black. It makes you look like a bad person.

"Who sent you?" Her voice was languid yet exuded a captivating charm. Her attire was as flamboyant as ever, with a moon-white cat's-eye stone on her forehead and a tiny pink diamond adorning the corner of her eye, sparkling brilliantly in the sunlight.

Her lips were a bright red, slightly upturned, which made the men in black stare wide-eyed. Weren't Princess Rong'an supposed to be a gaudy beauty? How come she looked like a stunning beauty described in a storybook?

The leader was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He forced a cold voice and said, "No one sent us here, Gu Rong'an. You are arrogant and domineering, and you treat human life like dirt. You have long been despised by the world." He raised his long sword and swung it sharply. "Today, we brothers will act on behalf of Heaven."

She picked at her ear. She accepted the arrogance and domineering attitude, but what kind of nonsense was this disregard for human life?

2345 spoke up, "[You slaughtered the entire Yi Han lineage, and now it's widely rumored outside that you're cruel.] There's one thing 2345 didn't mention: Nangong Yu is the ideal husband in the hearts of all the noble ladies in the capital. Even though he's now a rebel, he still has quite a few admirers for a while."

The kick from the host nearly disfigured Nangong Yu, though only temporarily.

After the incident, Shen Yun had Nangong Yu tied up tightly and then paraded around the streets several times.

The man she had loved for so many years was kicked into such a hideous state and she wasn't even allowed to get treatment. How could she not hate him?

Shen Yun was utterly bewildered. "Cruel? No, in this situation, am I supposed to just send these people back and then appease them with beauties and gold and silver?"

There's no way 2345 can respond to that. After all, that's how people are; they always know in their hearts that as long as the fire doesn't affect them, they'll just mind their own business.

Fine, if she's going to disregard human life, then so be it. Anyway, she'll end up with nothing and won't leave with a trace.

Seeing the group getting closer, Shen Yun was furious. They'd agreed to shout before the fight started, but instead they were sneaking around like this—had they no shame?

Pooh.

She clapped her hands, and instantly twelve men dressed in moon-white clothes appeared around her.

This was someone Gu Changjin arranged for her to be by her side after she returned from the border. Otherwise, Shen Yun wouldn't have been so audacious. Everyone makes mistakes, and she really didn't want to put herself in a disadvantageous position unless absolutely necessary.

Even with their hands and feet bound and their eyes covered, the secret guards from the palace could not possibly lose.

So, before long, the group was bound together by the guards.

Shen Yun waved his hand, signaling to knock them all unconscious.

Then, out of nowhere, he pulled out several small medicine bottles and a few dark red pills, one for each person, which was very fair.

"Throw them to the temple in the west of the city for me." Looking with satisfaction at the several people who were beginning to writhe in their unconsciousness, Shen Yun said.

Although the guards were surprised, they didn't show it on their faces and only left half of them to escort her back.

Shen Yun's plan to go out for a stroll completely fell through, and she had no choice but to return to the palace first.

Those guards who went to the west of the city were mostly young men in their mid-twenties, full of vigor and vitality. After this incident, they felt as if a thick shadow had been cast over their hearts.

They were happy to watch erotic scenes, but the content was a bit too explicit, and the genders of the two parties seemed inappropriate. A few days later, Shen Yun, estimating the time, went to find Gu Changjin and asked him to release Nangong Yu and imprison him in the Nangong residence.

Gu Changjin has been so busy these days that he barely has time to breathe. When he finally has some free time, all he can think about is Shen Yingxue's words. He has fallen in love with his younger sister.

I heard this sentence while I was tossing and turning in bed.

Anger welled up in his heart, and evil thoughts arose in his mind.

"Thud," is the sound of the memorial falling to the ground.

Shen Yun was startled and looked at him blankly, wondering if she had said anything inappropriate. She shouldn't have, right?
A few moments later, Gu Changjin composed himself and said gently, "Rong'an, Nangong Yu is now a traitor and is harmful to the country. We cannot let him go."

"I know." If she could, she would like to chop Nangong Yu into mincemeat, but now that he still has nine-tenths of his luck left, there's no guarantee that some idiots won't risk their lives to let him go.

Knowing this, Gu Changjin became even angrier. "And Gu Rong'an, the person she has always loved is never you." Shen Yingxue's words suddenly echoed in her mind.

Thinking about it more and more, it seems to make sense. Rong An used to like Nangong Yu. Although she hasn't shown it recently, it's hard to say that she's doing this on purpose because she wants to prove herself.

Thinking this, Gu Changjin's face turned as hard and foul as a rock in a latrine.

"By the way, if possible, could you also arrange for Nangong Yu to marry Hong... Princess Deshu?"

2345 Shocked! Is the host going to switch careers and become a matchmaker?

"Ahem," "Rong An, are you sure you want Nangong Yu and De Shu to get married?" Did he really not hear wrong? Gu Changjin was quite doubtful, although he was quite happy to hear this.

With a wave of his hand, Gu Changjin produced the imperial edict shortly afterward.

She happily took the imperial edict and was about to leave when she suddenly stopped at the threshold as if she had remembered something.

"Brother, no matter what rumors are circulating outside, you are still Rong'an's own brother." Shen Yun said, enunciating each word clearly, before leaving.

"My own brother?" Watching her departing figure, Gu Changjin pondered these three words carefully. After a long while, he slumped onto the dragon throne and sighed.

Seeing that she was speaking in riddles, 2345 couldn't help but ask a few questions out of curiosity, and naturally received a disdainful glare in return.

……

Shen Yun, who liked to finish things today, swiftly dragged Nangong Yu out of the prison like a dead dog and rushed to the Nangong residence.

It was also a coincidence that she bumped into Hong Zhaodi, who was dressed in a flamboyant manner.

Without saying a word, she had Hong Zhaodi pushed back to the Nangong residence.

Before long, the Nangong family and others rushed over.

After these days of torment, Nangong looked much older. Seeing her beloved son being held back, she wanted nothing more than to rush to him. After holding back for a long time, she knelt down and said, "This sinful woman pays respects to Princess Rong'an. May Princess Rong'an live a thousand years!"

"No need for formalities." She beckoned, signaling someone to release Nangong Yu.

His face was still red and swollen, his complexion was ashen, and his body was slumped.
