“Oh my, why is the neighboring enemy country invading at this time? With the presence of Guang Pingwang, how dare they do so?”

The Emperor spoke with anger, “Gu Ruoyun did it on purpose. He deliberately spread the news that he’s unconscious, so that the border will be in chaos. Then, I won’t be able to cut him off. I won’t buy it. Other than Guang Pingwang, there must be other generals who can fight.”

After that, the Emperor turned to look at Elder Zheng with a heavy gaze, “Elder Zheng, I’ll leave this matter to you.”

Elder Zheng cried out bitterly in his heart, but he still agreed on the surface.

After so many years, Guang Pingwang’s power grew bigger and bigger. No general in the capital could replace him.

Now that he had to look for an immediate replacement, Elder Zheng felt troubled.

He returned home with his heart full of worries.

Elder Zheng’s youngest daughter, Zheng Yiyi noticed her father’s distress and came forward to comfort him.

Elder Zheng told his daughter the whole story and looked at her expectantly.

His youngest daughter was no ordinary girl. She showed astonishing political acumen since she was young.

If she wasn’t a girl, the Zheng family’s status could have reached a higher level.

Every time he thought of this, Elder Zheng felt that it was a pity.

Zheng Yiyi pondered for a moment and smiled. She said, “Since we are choosing the general, then the one who has the Commander’s Seal should go.”

Elder Zheng’s eyes lit up for a second and turned dull again. He shook his head and said, “No, Gu Lingyu is just an idiot. He will probably wet his pants if he finds out that he has to battle. He won’t be able to bear the responsibility.”

Zheng Yiyi was not worried, she continued, “We have chosen the candidate for the Emperor. If anything happens to Gu Lingyu, it will not be up to us. If we really can’t find anyone else, the Emperor will think of Guang Pingwang. In that case, we will only be the messenger regardless of Guang Pingwang’s reaction. The main conflict will be between the Emperor and Guang Pingwang.”

Elder Zheng’s eyes lit up. That’s right!

He was only in charge of finding a candidate, but he was not responsible for sending them to the battlefield.

He looked at Zheng Yiyi with satisfaction. Then, he said regretfully, “Yiyi, it’s such a waste of your talent to be a girl.”

Zheng Yiyi laughed gently. She grew up listening to this statement and was already tired of it.

She said to Elder Zheng, “Father, in this world, there are things that men have to do. As for women, there will be things that men cannot do. Hence, women have to do it.”

Elder Zheng was puzzled.

Zheng Yiyi did not explain. She was thinking about a man and silently making her plans.

Only such a strong man would deserve to be with her.

Elder Zheng understood and began to take action.

The next day in the imperial court, when the Emperor announced about the war at the border, Elder Zheng recommended Gu Lingyu as the commander.

Gu Lingyu would usually fantasize about himself slaughtering everyone on the battlefield and getting fame.

After all, every man would have a dream like this.

They fantasized about being in the position of the Guang Pingwang, Gu Ruoyun.

However, when the dream came true, Gu Lingyu was so scared that his legs went soft. He hastily rejected the offer.

Elder Zheng sternly said, “Commandant Gu, you have a hundred thousand troops in your hands. If you don’t go to the battlefield, who will?”

The Emperor promoted Gu Lingyu to be a Commandant ever since he had received the Commander’s Seal.

Gu Lingyu looked at the ministers who had supported him before. Everyone avoided him.

Gu Lingyu stood alone in the imperial court helplessly. He cried, “Emperor, I’ve never been on the battlefield. I can’t do it.”

Everyone looked at Gu Lingyu with disdain. They wondered why Gu Ruoyun had such a cowardly nephew.

Or rather, how did a person like Gu Ruoyun come from Gu family?

The Emperor was annoyed by Gu Lingyu’s howls and scolded angrily, “That’s enough.. Kill him if he keeps crying.”
