Chapter 99: Refuse to Receive the Rewards Without Making a Merit

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

An Yi clapped his hands lightly, and several black shadows appeared behind him. The rewards that had just been carried in were carried out in the blink of an eye.

The young eunuch looked at An Yi in a panic, not understanding what he meant.

An Yi furrowed his brows. He remembered what His Royal Highness had said, and he read it out word by word.

“The Guang Residence refuses to receive the rewards without making a merit. His Royal Highness has been sick for a long time. He truly feels shameful to receive these rewards.”

The young eunuch listened as An Yi read this sentence emotionlessly without pause.

He repeated it in his heart several times before he understood the meaning.

That is, Guang Pingwang did not want these rewards.

The young eunuch felt that Guang Pingwang was really too bold. He even dared to reject the Emperor’s reward.

However, he did not dare to offend Guang Pingwang. He could only ask the servants to bring the rewards back into the palace.

The entire country was discussing this matter today.

The rewards flowed like water from the palace to the Guang Residence, and the same rewards had been sent back to the palace from the Guang Residence.

This… Guang Pingwang had returned the Emperor’s reward.

Everyone was sighing in amazement that he was indeed worthy of being Guang Pingwang. He was indeed bold.

There was another storm in the palace. The Emperor stayed in the Imperial Study and smashed everything.

This time, Elder Zheng also walked in anxiously.

The moment the Emperor saw him, he threw a teacup at him.

Elder Zheng did not dare to hide and endured it.

The Emperor’s anger was not completely vented. He roared, “You’re letting Gu Ruoyun step on my head and trample on me.”

Elder Zheng once again gave and idea to the Emperor, “Emperor, we just need to send Gu Ruoyun to the border. All these public opinions will disappear with his leave.”

The Emperor replied, “If he doesn’t accept the Commander’s Seal, how can I force it on him?”

Elder Zheng’s eyes rolled as he thought of his little daughter’s idea and spoke.

“Emperor, if Guang Pingwang doesn’t accept it, we can think of a way to force him to accept it.”

The Emperor looked over and urged, “Speak quickly.”

Elder Zheng did not dare to delay and said, “Guang Pingwang seems to care a lot about that little Princess Consort of his. We can look for the Su Family. The Su Family is full of martyrs. They will definitely stand on the Emperor’s side in this matter.”

The Emperor was a little hesitant. “But the matter of me bestowing a marriage upon Su Yan last time had already made the Su Family unsatisfied. Will they stand on our side this time?”

Elder Zheng said, “Didn’t they already cancel the previous marriage? Later on, it was the Su family who went to the Guang Residence and requested for a marriage alliance. What does that have to do with us? When the time comes, we will promise some benefits. We are not afraid that they will not help.”

The Emperor’s eyes lit up. He nodded and said, “Not bad, not bad.”

Looking at Elder Zheng, he became more and more satisfied. “I’ll leave this matter to you.”

That night, Elder Zheng went to the Su Family.

In the study of the Su Family, he discussed with Old Master Su for a full four hours.

No one knew what they had discussed.

Old Master Su personally sent Elder Su to the door.

Old Master Su didn’t even tell Master Su about this matter. Early the next morning, Old Master Su went to the Guang residence.

Su Yan, who had just woken up, heard the servant’s report and initially thought that she had heard wrongly.

After repeatedly confirming it, she asked Chu Tao to speed up her preparations.

She hurriedly tidied up herself and then quickly headed to the living room.

Why did grandfather come to look for me so early?

Worried that something had happened to the Su Family, Su Yan’s footsteps became faster and faster.

Chu Tao almost couldn’t keep up, so she could only jog behind.

When she reached the living room, Su Yan gasped for breath and called out, “Grandpa.”

Old Master Su looked at Su Yan and frowned.

“Why did you run so fast? Your head is full of sweat.”

Su Yan wiped her face with a handkerchief, smiled and said, “It’s all because Grandpa suddenly came.. I was worried.”
