The Tales of a Blessed Daughter

Chapter 86: It’s Inappropriate to Deliver Now

After about an hour, Su Yan felt a little hungry. She poked Gu Ruoyun’s chest and said, “Dear husband, I’m hungry.”

Gu Ruoyun’s face became threatening instantly. He asked in a hoarse voice, “My lady, are you trying to seduce me?”

Su Yan’s face turned red. She replied, “Who’s trying to seduce you? You are thinking nonsense, that’s why you are getting the wrong message.”

Gu Ruoyun laughed, “Yes, yes, you’re right.”

Su Yan got away from Gu Ruoyun and quickly stood up. She tidied up her clothes in a hurry.

Gu Ruoyun was still leaning against the couch. He said in a lazy tone, “It doesn’t seem appropriate to deliver food at this hour.”

Su Yan glared at him. He deliberately wasted time and it became so late now.

“Yes, that’s what you wanted.”

Gu Ruoyun smiled. He was not angry. Once Su Yan finished packing, he dragger her out together.

Su Yan followed behind Gu Ruoyun and waved her hands. A smile crept onto her face.

…

Gu Lingyu immediately called for a meeting after he received the Commander’s Seal.

In the previous meetings, Gu Lingyu always had a subservient appearance. Now, he became completely ostentatious.

He took out the Commander’s Seal and showed it to the ministers in the meeting. A fiery light flashed in the ministers’ eyes.

They looked at each other. They did not expect the mission to be completed so easily.

Gu lingyu boasted, “When I arrived at the Guang Residence today, Gu Ruoyun had already woken up. When he saw the imperial edict in my hand, he immediately handed over the Commander’s Seal.”

The ministers were shocked to hear that Gu Ruoyun was awake. They completely ignored Gu Lingyu’s subsequent words.

One by one, they began to inquire about Gu Ruoyun’s health.

When they found out that Gu Ruoyun was in good health, everyone fell into silence.

Gu Lingyu mocked them for being too timid.

The ministers looked at Gu Lingyu with pity. He was too young and immature.

Those who had experienced Gu Ruoyun’s massacre in the capital would never forget that scene for the rest of their lives.

Otherwise, they would not have dared to attack Gu Ruoyun only when he was on the verge of death.

They blamed Gu Lingyu for being unreliable. They would not have supported him if it wasn’t for that he said Gu Ruoyun was about to die.

They knew it. It must be a trap that he could obtain the Commander’s Seal so easily.

They began to excuse themselves. They should go back and plan how to extricate themselves from this matter.

Gu Ruoyun must have a backup plan.

Gu Lingyu was feeling smug.

In the imperial palace, the Emperor sat behind a table with a frown.

In front of him stood Elder Zheng, who betrayed Gu Ruoyun last time.

The Emperor asked, “Tell me, is Gu Ruoyun pretending to be unconscious or is he awake?”

Elder Zheng thought for a moment and replied, “I believe that Guang Pingwang is likely pretending to be unconscious. Otherwise, the timing of his awakening would be too coincidental.”

The Emperor asked again, “What’s his purpose for pretending then?”

Without waiting for Elder Zheng to answer, he asked again, “Why did he give the Commander’s Seal to Gu Lingyu so easily?”

The Emperor fell into deep thought. Elder Zheng could not understand either.

While the two of them were thinking hard, a message came from the palace entrance.

The Emperor hid his worry and said sternly, “Come in.”

It was a young general. He took out a letter and handed it to the Emperor. Then, he said respectfully, “Emperor, this is an urgent letter sent from 500 miles away from the border.”

The moment the Emperor touched the letter, he felt his heart skip a beat. He had a bad premonition.

He opened it and took a look. He got so angry that he slammed the table.

Elder Zheng and the young general were shocked.

Seeing the Emperor’s angry face, Elder Zheng waved his hand to dismiss the young general. Then he asked, “Emperor, what happened?”

The Emperor snorted angrily and threw the letter to Elder Zheng. “See it yourself.”

Elder Zheng hurriedly took the letter. He was shocked after reading it.
