Lu Qingying didn't know this because her father never told her about it.
And even if she knew this in advance, she wouldn't care that Tianyuan Kingdom had nothing to do with her.
Neither her father nor she did anything to disgrace Tianyuan Kingdom, and they also paid a lot for Tianyuan Kingdom.
The emperor wanted her to marry Wanyan Tiancheng, which sounded good, but in fact, the emperor also wanted to take advantage of her, didn't he?
A flash of anger flashed through my heart.
He looked at the emperor with dissatisfaction: "You said you would not interfere with my marriage, but now you want me to get married to Wanyan Tiancheng. In the emperor's heart, my fate should be controlled by you, right?"
There were only two of them in the imperial study room.
Gu Qingying felt that it was necessary to explain everything clearly, otherwise, the emperor was testing her today, and he would directly issue an order tomorrow.
Her destiny has never been in the hands of others, she wants to control her own destiny.
The emperor saw that Gu Qingying had misunderstood, and for some reason, he felt guilty and quickly said: "I didn't mean that. I just said this because I saw that you and Wanyan Tiancheng are a good match. Qingying, you don't need to be so hostile to me."
Gu Qingying was calm and sarcastic in her heart, but she didn't show it.
The emperor then explained: "Whether you understand what I told you or not! I won't blame you. I talked to Wanyan Tiancheng once when he came to the imperial city."
Thinking of the last conversation, I feel a little emotional now that I think about it.
He really didn't expect that Wanyan Tiancheng would fall in love with Gu Qingying, and he didn't care at all about everything Gu Qingying had experienced before.
It can be said that this is extremely rare.
Gu Qingying still looked at the emperor with calm eyes, waiting for the emperor to continue speaking.
The emperor continued slowly: "Wanyan Tiancheng is a person worth trusting for life. He is more suitable for you than Cang Jue. I asked your father what he meant, and your father also thinks highly of Wanyan Tiancheng."
These are all truths. Since he said he would not force Lu Qingying, he would never do anything that would make Lu Qingying disgusted.
When Gu Qingying heard this, her expression softened a little.
Her tone also became gentler. It seemed that she had misunderstood the emperor.
Speaking of which, she had a bad impression of Li Cangjue and the Queen, but her impression of the Emperor was good.
She could feel the emperor's protection for her.
However, the meaning expressed by the emperor just now really made her unhappy.
"I don't want you to interfere in the slightest with what the future holds for Wanyan Tiancheng and I. I know the Emperor has always been good to me, but this time I hope I can control my own life."
The emperor cannot afford to be angry at all.
He knew better than anyone else that it was because of him that Gu Qingying ended up like this.
If he hadn't done anything wrong back then, so many things wouldn't have happened.
Because of Gu Qingying's incident, he is no longer keen on matchmaking for others.
Gu Qingying was a little thirsty and refused to give up. She stood up and walked to the table to pour a cup of tea.
When the tea came into the mouth, he looked at the emperor in surprise and said, "Does the emperor also like to drink Orchid?"
The emperor did not deny it and explained: "This is sent by several princes. They say it is the best-selling tea outside. If you like it, take some back and drink it."
Gu Qingying waved her hands and said with a smile: "I sold this tea. I just accidentally liked the emperor to drink it. Did the emperor let me enter the palace just to finish talking about Yan Tiancheng?"
The emperor shook his head and said that Wanyan Tiancheng's matter was just incidental and that he really wanted to find Gu Qingying for other reasons.
"The Western Region has been restless recently. Because of Yelu Tianqi, there has been friction between the two countries."
Gu Qingying was confused.
Wasn't Xiyu so beaten down by Li Cangjue that he lost his temper before, and now he's jumping up and down again?
"Do they really want to be destroyed?"
She felt that it was not difficult to attack the Western Regions.
The emperor sighed: "The problem is that we can't do anything to them now. The matter of destroying the country is just a thought. The Western Regions know this, so they are so arrogant and often come to provoke them."
"Then what does this have to do with you coming to me?" Gu Qingying asked next.
I kept wondering about the emperor's intentions in my heart, but in the end I still couldn't come up with a reason.
Simply, let's not continue to speculate. They say that the Holy Will is difficult to predict, and the emperor's thoughts are the most difficult to guess.
Guess again and again. If you can't guess, don't guess.
The emperor didn't know how to talk to Gu Qingying.
After thinking about it, he decided to speak directly: "Cang Jue just got married. It's impossible for him to go to the border now. Jingyi just got pregnant. It would be better for Gu Xiao to be by his side, but the Western Region needs generals to garrison him."
Gu Qingying immediately understood what the emperor meant and looked at him angrily: "Is the emperor going to break his promise again?"
The emperor had promised her that her father would enjoy his old age in peace.
If things are like this now, wouldn't they be going back on their word?
The emperor smiled awkwardly: "It's not what you think. I want your father to choose a few more reliable people to go to the border."
Gu Qingying curled her lips, saying that it was not a good job to let her father choose. Not to mention if she did a good job, if the person she chose was not good, her father would be responsible for anything that happened.
The world is dark, and it is understandable that she would think so.
After taking a sip of tea, he spoke quietly: "Your Majesty, this method is foolproof. But Your Majesty, what if there is something wrong with the person my father selected? For example, he did not guard the border well?"
She saw through the emperor's intention, which was to use her identity dually and persuade her father to help choose.
Is this possible?
Gu Qingying has a bad temper, but she is not stupid!
The emperor wanted to take advantage of her so blatantly, it would be too stupid for her to deal with him so stupidly.
The emperor quickly said: "Of course it's those people's problem and has nothing to do with General Gu."
Gu Qingying admired the emperor from the bottom of his heart and said: "Actually, you don't have to beat around the bush. To be honest, my father can no longer interfere with the affairs of the court. I also beg the emperor to let my father go. He is old and has suffered a lot on the battlefield."
I’m injured and I really can’t bear to continue going to the border.”
"The Emperor and my father have known each other for decades. The Emperor must know how much he has sacrificed for the Tianyuan Kingdom! The Tianyuan Kingdom cannot survive without my father. This is the world of the Li family."
She almost said that this world has nothing to do with her.
This is treason and she can't say it casually.
The emperor felt guilty: "I didn't think carefully."
Gu Qingying continued: "If there is anything that requires fighting in the future, just leave it to my brother. Does the Emperor have anything else to do?"
She was now very uninterested in continuing to chat with the emperor.
Everything the emperor said made her feel unhappy, so it was better to leave the palace as soon as possible, otherwise she was really afraid that she would not be able to hold it back and quarrel with the emperor.
The emperor waved his hand and said: "You can leave the palace first! It's good that you and I understand what we said today."
Gu Qingying couldn't get it.
He agreed immediately, turned around and left the imperial study room.
