Chapter 68: The Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Guards



Everyone was speechless.

I thought to myself, "Old man, you are the Grand Marshal of the dynasty after all, so please be more steady."

Fortunately, I am older and thicker-skinned now, so no one dares to tell the truth.

With a light cough, the matter was over, and then he asked with a smile: "Tell me, how did His Majesty bully you?"

Nan Luoying and a group of younger people were confused and had no idea why the old man had changed so much. He was frowning and glaring just now, but in the blink of an eye he turned into a kind-looking man.

The tyrant emperor has become the emperor, and how come he looks so happy?

Of course, it is impossible for anyone to explain it to them, after all, it is something that needs to be written harmoniously.

Although Nan Luoying was confused, she didn't ask too many questions. When she thought of the emperor, she gritted her teeth.

"Grandpa, you don't know, that emperor is so cunning that he makes people angry just by talking to him..."

Then he went on to tell me how he went to the palace.

“…When I saw that he actually dared to doubt my ability, I said, you dare to doubt my ability?

The guy laughed and said, "It's not that I doubt you, but you have to prove it to me."

I asked, 'Well, how do you want me to prove it? '"

"Um, Luo Ying..."

Listening to her imitating the conversation between herself and the emperor, everyone in the Nan family couldn't help but sweat.

Nan Wuyou cautiously reminded, "From now on, when we face the emperor, no, His Majesty, we should still observe a little etiquette. What's with the "you" and "me" and "this lady"? Isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

The others also nodded.

Nan Cang was very unhappy that Nan Wuyou interrupted Nan Luoying. He glared at him, then smiled at Nan Luoying again and said, "Go on, go on, what next?"

Everyone was speechless... Old man, you are here to listen to a book.

Nan Luoying was interrupted and a little depressed. She nodded and calmed down, thinking for a moment before continuing, "When the emperor heard me ask 'how to prove it', he smiled again.

He said, "It's very simple. Although martial arts is not the most important thing for a general, Luo Ying, you are so confident and your martial arts are not weak. So, I will test your martial arts."

When I heard him say that, I wasn't afraid of him, so I asked him, 'How are you going to take the test? '"

"The Emperor said again..."

Nan Luoying imitated Zhao Xin's smiling expression, which gave everyone goosebumps. Suddenly, it felt like Luoying was about to be fooled.

However, what Zhao Xin said next from Nan Luoying made everyone look stunned.

"Sister, the emperor actually said that he would sit still and take your blow, and if you can repel him, he will be considered the loser?"

This time, the one who couldn't help but interrupt Nan Luoying was Nan Wuyou's eldest son, thirteen years old, named Nan Yuming.

As the person who was "bullied" the most by Nan Luoying, he was also the one who understood best how powerful Nan Luoying was.

Anyway, it was the kind of powerful one where "I could beat him until he cried with one hand, and then beat him until he dared not cry anymore."

When he heard Nan Luoying say that the emperor dared to sit still and take Nan Luoying's palm, he felt a little impressed by the emperor's courage.

The others were also a little surprised.

Although Nan Luoying was not convinced, she finally nodded.

"And then?"

Nan Yuming asked again, he thought the emperor might cry.

But Nan Luoying gritted her teeth and said, "I... lost."

“…”

Nan Yuming's mouth instantly opened into an "O". Although the others had expected this, they couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"Luo Ying, you actually lost?"

"I didn't expect that..."

When everyone said they didn't expect Nan Luoying to lose, it wasn't because they didn't expect Nan Luoying to lose. When they saw Nan Luoying's expression and tone before, they knew that the result would definitely be Nan Luoying losing.

But they didn't expect that the emperor could actually defeat Nan Luoying in martial arts, and he won by just sitting still and taking Nan Luoying's palm.

Among them, I'm afraid only Nan Cang can barely achieve this level.

Sitting still sounds simple, but if you think about it, you will realize that this posture is very disadvantageous. You can't use the force of impact, and it is also inconvenient to exert force.

"Luo Ying, you didn't use your full strength, did you?"

Nan Wuyou asked.

"No, although I didn't use 100% of my strength, I did use 80% or 90%."

Although Nan Luoying was very unhappy and unwilling to accept it, she would not hide it.

Everyone's expression changed slightly again when they heard this.

Nan Wu Ju and Nan Wu You's expressions changed a little. They both realized that they might have underestimated the Emperor.

Unexpectedly, the little emperor had quietly mastered such powerful martial arts.

For an emperor, martial arts certainly do not play a big role, but they can still play a role at certain times.

The emperor, in the deep palace, practiced martial arts so hard. It goes without saying why.

"It's really like sleeping on straw and tasting gall!"

The two brothers looked at each other.

Nan Cang laughed and said, "Luo Ying, it seems that you have been fooled by His Majesty, haha..."

He said that Nan Luoying was fooled, but he was laughing.

Seeing him "gloating over someone else's misfortune", Nan Luoying couldn't help but stamp her feet in anger and said coquettishly, "Grandpa, you're still laughing. I've been bullied."

Nan Cang shook his head and said, "How could I be bullied? All is fair in war. Your Majesty is capable of such skill and has been so meticulous in his planning. I can rest assured that you will marry into the palace."

"Grandpa~" Nan Luoying immediately refused to agree upon hearing that. She was about to say that she would never marry, but when she met Nan Cang's eyes, her heart paused.

Nan Wu Ju and Nan Wu You, standing nearby, were a little confused and couldn't help but ask, "Sir, His Majesty won fairly and even gave Luo Ying three points. How can you say Luo Ying was fooled?"

The old man doted on his granddaughter in every way, but he was not kind to his son and gave both of them a cold look.

Angered at her lack of fighting spirit, he said, "Humph, don't you understand? The emperor lives in the deep palace. He has never heard of hiring a famous teacher, and he has no one to compete with. Even if he practices hard, how can he possibly beat Luo Ying?

Even Luo Ying figured it out, but you guys can't even see that. Humph, you've learned all the military strategies like a dog."

The two were stunned when they heard this, and then they understood that the emperor was using his own strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses. However, even so, it was very powerful, at least in terms of defense and strength.

Nan Cang ignored them. He noticed Nan Luoying holding two rolls of yellow silk in her hands. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "Luoying, what are you holding?"

Nan Luoying only then remembered this after hearing this. Her expression changed from resentment to excitement as she said, "This is the imperial edict given to me by the emperor. One is for me, and the other is for grandfather."

He unfolded one of them and read, "Sacred Edict: You appoint Nan Luoying, granddaughter of Nan Cang, Grand Commandant of Anping Marquis and daughter of Nan Wuju, General Zhendong of Wuwei Marquis, as the commander of the imperial guards.

He also ordered the Marquis of Wuwei, General Zhendong, Nan Wujue, to recruit a thousand elite soldiers to be commanded by Nan Luoying.

Everyone present was stunned. They didn't expect such a thing to happen.

After Nan Luoying finished reading, she chuckled smugly and thrust the imperial edict directly at Nan Wuju, saying, "Father, no, General Nan, you have received the imperial edict. This commander will now begin mobilizing troops."
