Quick Transmigration: My Host's Darling Little Darling
Chapter 260 A Humble Son from a Poor Family VS A Noble Son 23
"Your Majesty, when I was young, I saved Your Majesty's life at the border. Your Majesty granted me a wish, and now I only have this one wish."
Every word Liu Ruyan spoke felt like a knife cutting into her heart, but she still said, "I have practiced martial arts since childhood, all for the purpose of fighting on the battlefield and protecting my country. I am Liu Ruyan, a descendant of the Liu family, and a citizen of the Zhou Kingdom. Regardless of my identity, I have a responsibility to do my best to protect my country and must never back down."
"Your Majesty, I am willing to sign a military pledge: if I fail to take the enemy's head, I am willing to die to atone for my sins! Therefore, I beg Your Majesty to grant me permission to go into battle and kill the enemy to avenge my father and brothers and to defend the border."
“Very well,” the emperor at the head of the table stroked the jade pendant in his hand, then suddenly crushed it to pieces in his palm, and said with difficulty, “I hereby appoint you as General Zhenbei to support the border. You will depart in three days. As for your title, from now on you will be the new Marquis of Weibei. You may marry as you see fit, guard the border, and you may not return to the capital without an imperial edict.”
"Your subject, Liu Ruyan, kowtows to express her gratitude for Your Majesty's divine grace!"
Liu Ruyan got what she wanted, but Zhou Fuyun stormed off.
Madam You went to help Liu Ruyan up; the child had been kneeling in the ancestral hall all night, and she was afraid she might have hurt her knees.
"Thank you, Mother!" Liu Ruyan looked at Madam You gratefully.
"No need to thank me. I didn't want Qian'er to go to the battlefield anyway." Madam You held her hand. "You are the most special girl I've ever met. You chose this path yourself. Remember, keep moving forward and never look back!"
"Your daughter understands." Liu Ruyan bowed respectfully.
At this moment, the Feng family members gathered together and walked out of the hall.
At this moment, the elders walked in front of Liu Ruyan, while her peers Feng Chang and Sheng Yuan walked behind her.
Feng Yun was waiting for them to finish court, and he was especially anxious when he saw his aunt enter the palace.
Seeing the whole family come out and that nothing serious had happened, he breathed a sigh of relief and walked over to Shengyuan's side.
"Cousin, why are your eyes so red?" Feng Yun asked with concern.
"Thank you for your concern, cousin. I encountered some troubles, but they have been resolved now." Liu Ruyan bowed slightly and explained, "From now on, I will be the Marquis of Weibei, guarding the border."
Feng Yun was taken aback for a moment, then quickly realized, "With my cousin being so powerful, she's bound to be invincible and unbeatable!"
"Then I'll take my cousin's kind words into consideration."
There was no news from Feng Yun, but the fact that the Marquis of Weibei had landed on his cousin's head meant that his uncle and cousin had already met with misfortune.
Rather than becoming a concubine in the palace, he thought his cousin would choose to fight on the battlefield.
On the carriage back to the manor, Feng Yun leaned on Sheng Yuan's shoulder, listening to Sheng Yuan tell him about the morning's court proceedings.
"Do you think my cousin made the right choice?" Feng Yun suddenly asked.
Sheng Yuan hugged her and said, "This is the life she chose herself. No matter what path she takes in the future, it will be the right one."
Feng Yun looked up and met Sheng Yuan's gaze, then nodded again.
[Host, did you really make Liu Ruyan learn of her father and brother's deaths and see Zhou Fuyun's true colors just to prevent the Liu family army from falling into Zhou Fuyun's hands?]
Nuonuo floated up to Shengyuan and asked.
The host instructed Vice General Mo to return safely to the capital to deliver a message, which allowed Liu Ruyan to learn of the secret decree's existence, thus changing her choice.
In the original timeline, Vice General Mo was assassinated, Liu Ruyan received no news from the border and was unaware of the secret decree. She entered the palace and became a concubine, and the Liu family army eventually fell into the hands of Zhou Fuyun.
Those raised on the frontier naturally wouldn't adapt to the capital. The people of Zhou need a capable general far more than a concubine.
Is it because it doesn't have an owner?
Nuonuo didn't believe that her host hadn't acted for her sake. She believed that no one in the world could be saved, not even a god.
The kitten said she hoped they would all live according to their own hearts. Fate changed; she learned all the information, and she made her own choice—not the Imperial Concubine Liu, but Marquis Weibei, Liu Ruyan.
Sheng Yuan and Feng Yun returned to Ziyun Courtyard by carriage, while Zhou Fuyun in the palace was far from calm.
"What's going on? How does Yan'er know about the secret decree?" Zhou Fuyun knocked the porcelain on the table to the ground.
The trusted eunuch who had grown up with Zhou Fuyun immediately knelt down, "Your Majesty, please calm your anger!"
"Calm down? Now that Yan'er can't enter the palace, how can you expect me to calm down?" Zhou Fuyun angrily smashed the teacup on the ground.
The hall fell silent instantly, with only Zhou Fuyun's angry panting audible.
The marriage agreement between the Feng and Shen families was not broken, but now even Liu Ruyan has betrayed him.
"Your Majesty, please forgive my bluntness, but has the Feng family had some incredible luck? They haven't been able to suffer any serious damage even after three attempts," the eunuch said, kneeling on the ground, his voice trembling.
Zhou Fuyun kicked the eunuch hard, yelling, "Get out!"
The eunuch was kicked and rolled over, then scrambled back.
Sitting alone on the dragon throne, Zhou Fuyun's eyes were full of profound meaning.
The Feng family has deep roots in the imperial court; if one wants to completely seize power, one cannot let them live.
They originally thought that the marriage to bring good luck would affect the Feng family's reputation, prevent Feng Yun from marrying into a powerful family as the eldest son, and make Feng Yun a useless pawn of the Feng family.
But to everyone's surprise, the third son of the Pei family was not only talented, but also happily accepted the marriage proposal. He was simply a disgrace to scholars.
Originally, the Feng family and the Shen family were only friends from their ancestors. As long as the marriage between Feng Yunyan and Shen Qiwei was ruined, the Feng family and the Shen family would break apart, and the Feng family's eldest daughter, Feng Yunyan, could be brought into the palace to restrain the Feng family.
However, his scheme was exposed in public, and he even ruined the female assassin he had spent a lot of money training.
When Feng Yunyan was to marry, the Marquis's mansion simply sent him, the emperor, a concubine's daughter.
Furthermore, he sent so many assassins, yet they couldn't even kill a seriously wounded deputy general. How could Liu Ruyan sit still after learning about the situation at the border?
Moreover, yesterday he went to see that stupid woman Xu Qianhan, which was also seen by Liu Ruyan, which made Liu Ruyan decide to give up their relationship of several years in a fit of anger!
Half a month later, Zhou Fuyun made Xu Qianhan his empress and selected fifteen young women from official families to enter the palace.
