Stunning beauty, the hero of Collapse is happy again

Chapter 99: The Gloomy Eunuch and the Imperial Concubine (2)

Ruan Guannan was detained in the yard by his mother for more than half a month to recuperate before he was allowed to leave the hospital.

When they learned that their daughters or sisters did not jump into the lake because they were reluctant to see other people, but because they were admiring themselves in the water and one of them slipped and fell into the lake.

Ruan Guannan, who was speechless and felt so irritated, wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

Mother Ruan breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she couldn't help but feel a little sad and distressed.

Who would be willing to rush to marry off a beautiful daughter whom they have loved and raised for more than ten years just when she comes of age?

Isn't it because you have no choice but to do this?

The family had a quiet meal, and then Ruan Guannan walked back to Guanlan Garden.

Two older brothers and one younger brother were vying to take her back. Ruan Guannan felt helpless but also felt warm inside, so the four of them went together.

"Jiao Jiao'er, father and mother are doing this for your own good, you..."

Ruan Guiyuan looked at his beautiful, fairy-like sister with worry, feeling complicated.

Ruan Guannan knew that his elder brother was worried about her, so he smiled and said:

"Brother, I know. There's nothing wrong with getting married early. Does that mean I'm no longer a girl of the Ruan family after I get married? Will you just ignore me?"

"will not!"

The second brother Ruan Wenyan, who was always quiet and taciturn, said firmly,

"Second brother won't let anyone bully you."

"Yes, sister. I have been learning martial arts from my father and second brother. If anyone dares to bully you, I will beat him until he cries for his parents!"

Ruan Jingxing came over and waved his fist and said.

He is Ruan Guannan's younger brother. They are of the same age and often get into trouble and play together. He has been in contact with him for longer than his two older brothers, but they have a deep relationship.

Ruan Guannan snorted coquettishly, tilting her head back and laughing proudly.

"Isn't that all? So you don't have to worry about me."

Because there's no point in worrying, she didn't come here to get married.

The three of them saw that she was almost the same as usual, so they temporarily put their minds at ease.

After Ruan Guannan finished washing up and lay down on the bed, he couldn't help but sigh.

When Ruan Guannan thought of the ending of the Ruan family in the plot, his heart sank, and the relaxation and smile on his face disappeared.

The dynasty she lived in was called the Xinxuan Dynasty, the reign title was Tianxiang, and now it is the third year of Tianxiang.

In other words, this new dynasty only developed for three years.

It cannot be said to be a new dynasty, for the previous dynasty was the Xuan Dynasty, which was overthrown by the new emperor and then a new dynasty was established.

Regardless of whether it was the new dynasty or the old dynasty, it was the Xiao family's world.

The new emperor was from a remote branch of the Xiao family. He was once driven to live in a remote place because the emperor was afraid of him.

Later, Emperor Xuanren became licentious and immoral, and the country and the people suffered.

The new emperor rose up in rebellion, overthrew Emperor Xuanren and ascended the throne himself.

The new emperor wanted to distinguish himself from the previous generation of monarchs, but also wanted to continue the Xiao family's rule, so he changed the country's name to Xinxuan and set the reign title to Tianxiang.

However, no matter which generation of kings, they were all wary of the Ruan family.

Nguyen's father, Nguyen Qi Zong, was a first-rank general with 500,000 soldiers under his command. He was the mainstay of the former Xuan Dynasty.

If it weren't for him, the Xuan Dynasty would have been invaded by foreign tribes and the war would have been raging. How could the emperor have been able to indulge in debauchery and pleasure?

But it was because Nguyen Qi Zong was too important to the country that the emperor was wary of him.

Ruan's father had no choice but to stay in the border area for a long time with his second son, leaving his wife and young children in Beijing, and spending less time with his family.

When the new emperor launched a military coup, the letters for help sent to the border were intercepted, resulting in Ruan's father being unable to return to Beijing for support in time.

By the time he returned to Beijing, everything was settled.

Nguyen Qi Zong was devoted to protecting the people of Xuan Dynasty and his own family, and was not loyal to the emperor.

As long as the new emperor can govern the country well, he will also be loyal to him.

The old dynasty had implemented the policy of "valuing civil affairs over military affairs", which put the new emperor in an awkward position of lacking military generals.

Although the new emperor was afraid of the Nguyen family's control of military power, he had no choice but to use the Nguyen family.

In the third year of the new emperor's accession to the throne, Xiwu Kingdom joined forces with neighboring small countries to launch a war while Xinxuan Kingdom was instability.

Except for Nguyen Qui Yuan, all the other Nguyen family members died in the battlefield. Nguyen's mother was so heartbroken that she committed suicide.

For a moment, the huge General's Mansion was deserted, with only Ruan Guiyuan left.

In the end, even he returned to the underworld, and the Ruan family withdrew from the stage of history.

The general and his family, who were dedicated to the country and the people, ended up in such a miserable way. Thinking of this, Ruan Guannan felt suffocated.

She calmed down her inner excitement and vowed to herself that she would never let her family fall into such a state.

*

At the same time, the palace.

"My son, come here quickly. Your mother has selected all the girls who are ready to get married in Shengjing City for you. See which one suits your taste?"

When Concubine Xian saw Xiao Cheng coming in, she quickly called him over to see the portrait.

Xiao Cheng felt a little helpless about his mother's active efforts in trying to tie him up, but he did not refute.

He is the third son in the family. His two older brothers have already started families, and his youngest brother is only four years old this year. He is the only one who has not yet found his marriage.

Xiao Cheng casually flipped through these portraits that were similar in appearance, paying special attention to their family backgrounds.

The virtuous concubine sat aside with a cup of tea, looking at her tall, straight and heroic son beside her, feeling very proud.

His son is both civil and military, and is also very resourceful and intelligent. He is bound to achieve great things.

After a while, Xiao Cheng pointed at a portrait and said calmly, "Let's pick her."

Concubine Xian was curious for a moment and leaned over to take a look. "The daughter of the great general who guards the country, Ruan Guannan?"

Xiao Cheng lazily leaned back in his chair, his eyes expressionless, and said:

"Well, the Ruan family army led by his father has a very high reputation in the army and among the people, and will be of great use to me, your son."

The virtuous concubine nodded in agreement, feeling relieved that her son was so calm and rational.

Those who want to achieve great things must never be indecisive.

"Okay, then mother will mention it to your father and see what he thinks."

Xiao Cheng nodded indifferently, stood up and bowed.

"Mother, I have something important to do. I will come to see you when I have time."

"Okay, your business is more important." Concubine Xian waved her hand and let him leave.

Xiao Cheng was walking on the way out of the palace, looking down in thought.

The Ruan family is not an ordinary family. Once tied to the Ruan family, it will inevitably arouse the emperor's fear.

Thinking of this, he could hardly remember what the portrait he had just seen looked like.

He shook his head indifferently and looked up at this majestic and magnificent place that symbolized supreme power, his ambition clearly revealed in his eyes.

So what if I'm afraid?

He, Xiao Cheng, is never afraid of challenges!
