Chapter 780: 5 Maxed-Out Favorability Levels
Emperor Minghua issued an edict appointing the Left General as Grand Commander and Qin Huai as General of Peace, leading 100,000 troops to quell the border unrest.
Although Feng Yuxiang was appointed as the military commander, he held only a nominal title and had no real power.
She is nominally authorized to supervise General Ping An, but if General Ping An refuses to comply, she has no right to punish him.
Yes, those in the know understand. Even if Yuxiang-jun had no official title, General Ping'an was still willing to listen to her.
As for the Left Commander.
Several veteran officials privately entered General Zuo's residence, smiling and congratulating him: "General Zuo, you used to look down on us civil officials for being able to get promoted and make money just by talking. How do you feel now?"
General Zuo stroked his newly grown beard and snorted, "I'm different from you; this is a real battle!"
"Oh~, you're just going to war with a few kids? You really have the nerve to call it going to war?"
General Zuo blushed: "..."
That's right. Dealing with a few scattered soldiers who have already been weakened several times by the Emperor would probably be difficult even with a combined force of 50,000. Sending 100,000 troops to suppress them would just be blatant protection.
The Emperor dispatched only the elite troops!
One of the ministers winked and said, "I've heard that your daughter and that Yu Xiangjun have a very good relationship. Yu Xiangjun was once named the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers in the Hundred Flowers County. You must know quite a bit about Yu Xiangjun, right?"
General Zuo waved his hand, speaking with righteous indignation: "Yuxiang is still a young girl at home. It's not appropriate for you old fogies to keep talking about her all the time. In my opinion, you civil officials act all high and mighty in public, but why are you all so gossipy in private?"
The ministers' faces turned green.
How could they not know that Yuxiang Junli was still several years away from reaching marriageable age?
But can she be considered the same as an ordinary young lady from a wealthy family?
Not to mention her, even her fiancé is not yet fifteen!
But those two clearly showed extraordinary talent early on, so who would treat them as ordinary little kids?
Even though they were just young children who hadn't yet fallen in love, they still shared a childhood friendship.
This mission to suppress the Third Prince's faction is undoubtedly the Emperor's way of giving the young couple a prestigious title. Even if Qin Huai has the possibility of regaining his identity in the future, Yu Xiangjun's status won't be too low.
These old folks have long understood that a wife's happiness depends entirely on how much her husband's family values her and is willing to maintain her.
After all, he was the one who single-handedly caused a stir in Wanning City back then, so no one would doubt Qin Huai's intention to protect Ayu.
Qin Huai is now in a state of ambivalence in Wanning City. On one hand, the virtuous ministers are resentful of him, believing that he is arbitrary in his actions and has developed a romantic mindset, making him not a proper man.
On one hand, the woman praised him highly, believing that if her husband could be even half as good as Qin Huai, they would not have made a mistake in choosing him, and they would be laughing in their dreams!
In the end, General Zuo pushed the group of people out the door, telling them to go somewhere cool and stay there.
Don't think he doesn't know that these people are ostensibly there to mock him, but actually they're there to gather information.
His daughter and son-in-law were somewhat acquainted with Ayu, and knew a little bit about her, so they could give her a heads-up.
For example, is Qin Huai really the Empress's biological son as rumored? Is it possible for him to become a prince, or even the Crown Prince?
Although General Zuo is impulsive in character, he is not so impulsive in his actions.
"I don't know!" With that one sentence, everyone was driven out of the mansion.
Then, I happily went to write the shopping list. This business trip was easy, and I would definitely have time to buy some nice things for my wife and daughter.
The imperial decree had to be issued within a month, and while others either watched with amusement or envy, the Wang family was shrouded in gloom, with sobbing sounds heard everywhere.
The man sitting by the second gate, hugging his knees and crying, was particularly conspicuous.
Ayu couldn't bear to watch any longer, so she went over and called out, "Father, please stop crying!"
Wang Chuanman raised his swollen, almost closed goldfish eyes, saw that it was Ayu, and hurriedly wiped away his tears.
"Ayu, let your father go with you. I'm really worried about you."
Wang Chuanman is not someone who likes to show his emotions, but for the past year or so, since Ayu went to Jiangsai City, he has been worried about her.
He didn't think much of it when Ayu went on study tours with his family's children, but now that Ayu has become successful and an official, he's thinking about her everywhere.
Especially now that he and his wife have seen more of the world and know more, they understand the principle that the higher you climb, the harder you fall.
The couple worked tirelessly, one caring for the child and building connections, while the other worked tirelessly to expand the mulberry orchard and develop sales channels, all to support their family.
Especially Ayu.
Without her, the Wang family wouldn't be where it is today.
What's more, she was the precious child Wang Chuanman had personally carried back from the snow, the one who had pulled his wife out of her depression. The thought of her having to follow the army, enduring wind and dew, and setting up camps everywhere, chilled his heart to the bone.
"There won't be any risks on this trip, Father, don't worry," Ayu said helplessly.
Wang Chuanman pouted: "Dad has made a lot of money, but I haven't even had a chance to let you spend it and enjoy it, and now you're leaving again. It's all Dad's fault for being useless, making my daughter have to work hard outside at such a young age!"
At this point, Wang Chuanman was about to cry again.
It wasn't that he wanted to cry, but rather that in the past few years, while doing business outside, he had cultivated himself into a person with extremely strong empathy in order to gain people's trust, so tears could come easily.
It has become a habit.
This has forced Liu, who used to cry secretly, to stop crying altogether.
Ayu had never seen anything like this before, and her hands and feet were truly numb.
She wiped Wang Chuanman's face with a handkerchief, unsure how to comfort him.
"That's enough, you shameful thing!" Old Mrs. Wang appeared out of nowhere, her eyes full of disgust.
She walked over, kicked Wang Chuanman aside, and when she turned to look at Ayu, her face was full of gentle smiles.
“Ayu, don’t mind your father. He’s just like that, getting more and more useless as he gets older!” said Old Mrs. Wang. “Go find your grandfather. He made a lot of things for you. If you see anything you like, take it with you on the way.”
Not only Old Wang, but the entire Wang family prepared a lot for Ayu.
After Wang Erlang got married, it became inconvenient for him to be too close to Ayu, so he asked his wife Jiang Wujing to prepare a lot of delicious food and fun things for her.
Sanlang's personality had become much calmer; his wife, Wei Qianying, had greatly influenced him. The two prepared writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones, especially the paper, which was specially made waterproof and moisture-proof, perfect for the journey. Silang sent various silks and satins; his wife Zhou Chuchu's family had become increasingly wealthy, running a fabric business, and they had chosen the finest styles that were durable. Another batch was for Ayu to use for errands along the way. Like many others, they believed that Ayu's journey wouldn't involve a major battle, but rather a lot of social obligations along the way.
Wang Wulang was still in Jiangsai when he somehow learned of the news and sent someone to deliver a piece of paper to him.
The note contained only one sentence: "All my money is with you. Ayu, buy whatever you like, even if you buy it all."
The other older and younger brothers were younger, so they gave gifts that they could afford.
Old Wang didn't have much money, so all he could offer was his craft – jade carving.
"This is the Thousand-Hand Guanyin, this is the Thousand-Faced Buddha, this is the Laughing Maitreya, this is the God of Wealth..." Old Wang brought out a large frame and placed it in front of Ayu with a bang. Inside were all kinds of jade carvings of various sizes, each one exquisite.
Seeing this spectacular scene, Ayu suspected that her grandfather had robbed some jade shop.
Old Wang snorted: "This was given to you by one of your cousins. It looks alright. Pick and choose for yourself. You can sell the rest later."
Seeing her grandfather's sudden awkwardness, Ayu suppressed a laugh and picked out a few items. Among them was a pair of jade pendants, which she immediately tied to her waist.
"Can I give this to Brother Ayou?"
Old Wang waved his hand: "Take what you want from me."
Compared to Wang Chuanman's reluctance, Old Wang Tou was never worried about Ayu being "taken away".
He firmly believed that unless Ayu refused to stay at home, no one could take Ayu away.
After coaxing everyone in the family, Ayu went to find Old Mrs. Wang.
Grandma Wang didn't say much this time, only instructing, "Ayu, you've grown up too fast. The family should be your support, but we can't keep up with your pace. But with Grandma watching over you, we won't hold you back. Do whatever you want to do. I just hope you remember one thing: your well-being is our biggest concern. Nothing else matters, understand?"
Ayu nodded solemnly, bowed gracefully to Old Madam Wang, and adopted a noble demeanor: "Ayu understands."
Before they knew it, the day of parting arrived. The long procession stretched as far as the eye could see, and the people of Wanning City talked about it for days afterward.
Needless to say, the Wang family was extremely reluctant to part with him, but Qin Huai was overjoyed.
He had rarely been this happy.
Having been separated from Ayu for so long, how could I not be happy to finally be able to travel on company money?
It was only at this moment that a trace of youthful spirit could be seen in Qin Huai.
Well, once we reach our destination, let's celebrate with the Third Prince's head!
[Ding! Achievement "100% Pampering" unlocked]
After a mechanical recitation, Tuanzi's joyful voice rang out.
【Honey! Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god!】
Ayu was sitting in the carriage, holding the storybook her second sister-in-law Jiang Wujing had prepared for her, and was enjoying reading it when she heard Tuanzi's excited voice.
"Elf, what's wrong?"
You have achieved something unprecedented!
[You've gained 5 instances of 100 favorability points!]
Ayu was stunned for a moment before she realized that she hadn't heard the term "favorability" from the elves in a long time.
Tuanzi was also shocked, so much so that she shared the news with the source space and screamed wildly at it.
Look, my little one! So awesome!
My pet is amazing!
Unprecedented! Unparalleled! Unique! Leading the pack!
The source space skillfully shielded it.
After venting her joy, Tuanzi gently said to Ayu, "Baby, you're amazing! You know, there are many who have a 99% affection level, but very few who have 100. And you're the only one who can have five of them in one world at the same time."
Ayu nodded and smiled, "It shows that many people love me; they are the ones who are truly remarkable."
The conditions for reaching 100% affection are extremely demanding; even with unwavering love and a willingness to die for the other person, the level can only reach 99%.
At 100, it means loving her unconditionally, without reason, and without hesitation.
Aren't you going to ask me which five are included?
Ayu blinked: "I know, there definitely isn't Brother Ayou, right?"
Tuanzi glanced at Qin Huai's favorability rating and hummed in agreement: "Yeah, it's 98 now."
They ranked sixth.
Qin Huai's feelings for A Yu stemmed from a complex mix of factors, but even at 98, it was still a terrifying number.
However, with 100 in front, it seems a bit low.
“Elf, how many people love me, and how deeply they love me, is no longer so important.” Ayu put down her storybook and earnestly responded to Tuanzi in her heart, “What matters now is how much ability I have to ensure that the people I love and the people who love me can live well. That’s the most important thing.”
Tuanzi's excited heart calmed down a lot.
Sure enough, it raised its cubs to be too precocious, boohoo.
It's all its fault for letting the kid know too much.
Being too clever for one's own good is almost demonic; it will cost the child so much innocent joy.
