Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder is Very Leisurely

"Your Majesty, please see me."

Yu Nuan was very surprised to hear that Shen Mu had sent someone to invite her to the palace, but she still couldn't refuse. After all, in this era of supreme imperial power, no one could refuse Shen Mu's decree.

"You've arrived, Li Sheng. Please take a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After Yu Nuan sat down, Shen Mu remained silent, processing official documents and leaving Yu Nuan waiting. But who was Yu Nuan? She sat there calmly and patiently, waiting to see who would lose their temper first.

"Jiang Yunuan, do you know why I summoned you here?"

Shen Mu put down his pen and looked at Yu Nuan with a leisurely air, asking her a question.

"do not know."

"Jiang Yunuan, do you know that the Prince of Yan likes you? You clearly know that the Prince of Yan is my own brother, so why do you still associate with him so closely?" Shen Mu questioned coldly.

“Your Majesty, I have never had any romantic relationship with the Prince of Yan.”

Shen Mu carefully observed Yu Nuan's expression, trying to discern the truth in her words. However, Yu Nuan's tone was too sincere, making Shen Mu somewhat doubtful—could he have truly made a mistake?

"But what do you think of the Prince of Yan? During this time, the Prince of Yan has told me countless times that he wants to marry you, but your statuses are not suitable, so I cannot agree, and I am unwilling to agree."

“Your Majesty, it is impossible and impossible for me to have feelings for Prince Yan that go beyond friendship. I will return to Yunqi Temple after the Lantern Festival, and after that, I probably will have no further contact with Prince Yan.”

"Remember what you said today," Shen Mu said coldly, his words carrying a hint of threat.

Yu Nuan couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to Shen Mu. She knew that Shen Mu was a qualified ruler to the people, but to the original owner of this body, he was the culprit who ruined her life.

After finishing his business, Shen Mu finally had the time to carefully observe Yu Nuan. Time waits for no one, and when Shen Yan saw Yu Nuan's still young and beautiful face, he couldn't help but touch his own face. As a man, Shen Mu certainly didn't pay much attention to maintaining his appearance, but he couldn't be that much different from Yu Nuan!

Yu Nuan found it strange that Shen Mu was looking at her with a complicated expression. Since Shen Mu hadn't told her to leave, Yu Nuan naturally couldn't bring up leaving on her own initiative.

"Jiang Yunuan, why haven't you changed at all over the years? You're still so beautiful."

Shen Mu's sudden remark left Yu Nuan unsure how to react, and alarm bells immediately went off in her mind. Could it be that Shen Mu had taken a fancy to her looks again and was lusting after her?

After all, Shen Mu had done this before.

Yu Nuan didn't speak, but looked at Shen Mu warily. A man praising a woman's beauty could only mean he was interested in her.

Shen Mu clearly saw the wariness in Yu Nuan's eyes and couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Jiang Yu Nuan, you don't need to worry. Since I promised the Empress that I would only have her for the rest of my life, I will definitely keep my promise."

Shen Mu did not deny that he had indeed developed feelings for Yu Nuan.

"Then I wish Your Majesty and Empress a harmonious and long-lasting marriage."

Shen Mu stared intently at Yu Nuan, feeling that he had never truly understood her. Whether it was the former Consort Yu or the current Taoist Yu Nuan, he had never seen the real Jiang Yu Nuan.

"Alright, you can go back now!"

Yu Nuan couldn't wait to get up and leave.

"Jiang Yunuan." Shen Mu called out to her as Yunuan turned around.

Yu Nuan stopped walking, but did not turn around.

"Jiang Yunuan, do you regret leaving the palace?" In fact, Shen Yan had already arranged everything for Yunuan. He could have kept her in the palace and, after marrying Guo Ziyue, made Yunuan a Noble Consort, giving her a prestigious status and confidence in the palace. Even if he favored the Empress, she wouldn't be bullied.

"No regrets." Yu Nuan answered without hesitation.

Not getting the answer he wanted, Shen Mu didn't try to stop him any longer and waved his hand, "You can go now!"

This time, Yu Nuan didn't give Shen Mu a chance to stop her and quickly left.

After coming out, Li Sheng waited at the door. When he saw Yu Nuan come out, Li Sheng immediately stepped forward and said respectfully, "Princess, this servant will escort you out of the palace."
