"General, this way please. His Majesty is waiting for you."
Wan Ge listened to the eunuch beside her talking, and then, following his instructions, appeared before the emperor.
In this world, she is a female general, and the emperor in front of her was her fiancé when he was still the crown prince, but the engagement was later nullified.
"General Su, I have heard that there is a kind of Gu worm called Longevity Gu in Nanyuan that can save the Empress's life. I order you to go to Nanyuan immediately to find the Longevity Gu." The man sitting in the pavilion had a cold expression on his handsome face, and his deep eyes stared coldly at the person in front of him.
Wan Ge didn't speak. When the other person saw that she still hadn't responded, they immediately said, "This is what you owe Yuan'er."
The "Yuan'er" mentioned by the emperor was the prime minister's daughter. When she was young, the prime minister's son was her study companion, and the emperor had met Ji Yuan several times.
Ji Yuan is completely different from the original owner. She was literate, could play the zither, and composed poetry from a young age. She has a gentle and sweet personality and is also very beautiful.
The original owner of this body, having grown up with her general father, was used to wielding swords and spears from a young age, and had a rather carefree personality, making her completely different from Ji Yuan.
And the so-called debt he mentioned... the story is actually like this:
The original owner's father was a powerful and influential general who had achieved numerous military exploits. The emperor feared the general's power, but the general only had one daughter. The best solution was for the general to marry the crown prince, which would both win over the general and pave the way for the emperor's son.
But at that time, the male protagonist, who was the crown prince, was already in a loving relationship with the female protagonist of the prime minister's mansion.
After hearing about this, Ji Yuan attempted suicide by jumping into the lake. Although she was later rescued, she was left with a chronic illness.
So the male protagonist blamed all the mistakes on the original owner.
The original owner of this body also had a tragic story. The year after the engagement, the original owner's father died on the battlefield. Because of the three-year mourning period, the original owner was unable to marry the crown prince.
In the third year of the mourning period, the emperor died of illness, and the crown prince became emperor.
After the general left, aside from a few loyal followers who sought his favor, the rest of the power was divided up. Furthermore, with the emperor's death, the male protagonist ascended to the highest position. The original marriage agreement became invalid, and the male protagonist married Ji Yuan, who became empress.
The original owner said nothing, but volunteered to go to the frontier when the borderlands invaded. After quelling the war, he returned.
After returning, he was always treated as a servant by the emperor.
Actually, the original owner didn't feel she owed Ji Yuan anything; it's just that... the reason she did so much was simply because she liked the emperor.
Wan Ge expressed that she did not understand why she would like the emperor. Was it just because they had been engaged before?
…
"Your subject obeys." If Ruan Ruan hadn't told him that he wouldn't have bothered with the villain in Nan Yuan.
But if I don't go now, they won't let me go to such a far place so easily. Then I won't be able to see my little villain.
The emperor glanced at Wan Ge, snorted coldly, and then dismissed her.
Wan Ge said, "This subject takes his leave," and then left.
When she returned home and saw the huge general's mansion, but had no relatives left, Wan Ge really felt that the original owner was quite miserable and pitiful.
With such a tragic backstory, she should have been a cool and capable female general who commanded the battlefield, but she just happened to fall for the male lead. She must have been blind.
