Lin Zhiyuan Tears Up the Marriage Decree, the Yun Nation's Army Bears Down on the Border!
"By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: The Great General Who Guards the Nation, whose meritorious service is outstanding... shall be betrothed to the Second Prince, Zhao Niancheng. The marriage shall take place within three days. This is the imperial decree."
The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict finished reading it and then walked to Lin Zhiyuan.
He handed the imperial edict forward. "General Lin, please receive the decree!"
Lin Zhiyuan was completely stunned at that moment.
The betrothed was not Zhao Lin Cheng, but Zhao Niancheng.
Originally, Zhao Niancheng was the man she admired.
But for some reason, Lin Zhiyuan felt no joy at all at that moment.
On the contrary, it felt like there was a gap in the area where my heart was.
"General Lin?" the eunuch delivering the imperial decree called out again.
Lin Zhiyuan then came to his senses and quickly raised his hands. "Your subject receives the decree."
After receiving the imperial edict, Lin Zhiyuan stood up and asked, "Has the Crown Prince gone to guard the border?"
"General Lin, the First Prince left the capital this morning to guard the border."
Suddenly, Lin Zhiyuan felt an overwhelming urge to see Zhao Lin Cheng.
Even just meeting once, or exchanging a single word, would be enough.
He handed the imperial edict to his subordinate. "I'll go see the First Prince off."
With that, Lin Zhiyuan turned and ran out the door.
A moment later, Lin Zhiyuan rode out of the West City gate on a chestnut warhorse.
It kept rushing westward.
Unfortunately, Lin Zhiyuan rode his horse for half a day but still couldn't find Ling Yi Shadow.
Little did she know that Ling Yi had given the 10,000 Tiger Guard Battalion a superpower shortly after leaving the city.
With ten thousand Transcendent Card thrown out, these ten thousand Tiger Guard Battalion became even more powerful Da Wu artists than Lin Zhiyuan.
Not only the Tiger Guard Battalion, but also Tiger Guard Battalion ten thousand warhorses have all been given a cheat code.
By now, they are already more than a hundred miles away.
Lin Zhiyuan naturally couldn't catch up.
It was almost noon when they had no choice but to return.
However, on their way back, they unexpectedly encountered a group of suspicious figures.
In her previous life, Lin Zhiyuan had dealt with many soldiers from the Yun Nation.
Their identities were quickly determined from the weapons they carried.
So they charged straight in and killed most of the group.
The remaining few survivors were subjected to severe torture, but they learned a shocking secret.
These people are indeed from the Yun Nation.
Moreover, he is a member of the royal family of the Yun Nation.
The reason I came to the Da Wu Nation was because I received a secret letter from the Second Prince, Zhao Niancheng.
The gist of the story is that the Yun Nation has sent troops to attack the Da Wu Nation.
This allowed the main military force of the Da Wu Nation to be transferred to the border.
Zhao Niancheng seized this opportunity to launch a coup and usurp the throne.
After the matter is accomplished, the Da Wu Nation will become a vassal state of the Yun Nation, paying tribute every year and following its lead.
However, these members of the Yun Nation's royal family had departed from Yun Nation half a month ago.
At this moment, they had no idea that the Yun Nation had already undergone a complete transformation.
Of course, Ling Yunzhi was unaware that the Yun Nation had undergone a complete transformation.
Looking at the secret letter in his hand, Ling Yunzhi's face turned extremely ugly.
After a long pause, he gave a wry smile, "Actually, I should have thought of this a long time ago."
She had already heard rumors about what Lin Niancheng had done in her previous life.
It's just that I've never believed it because of the "White Moon" filter.
Zhao Lin Cheng had also tried to persuade her on several occasions.
It is said that Zhao Niancheng is a man of deep thoughts and not a good match for her; he only took a fancy to her status as a general who protects the country.
He only wanted to use her power to help him ascend the throne.
At that time, Lin Zhiyuan only thought that Zhao Lin Cheng was jealous of Zhao Niancheng.
She was just slandering her lover.
Looking back at everything I've done now.
How ridiculous!
He casually slaughtered these people from the Yun Nation.
Lin Zhiyuan then headed towards the imperial city.
It wasn't until the afternoon that they returned to the capital and went straight to the palace.
They stayed in the palace until nearly evening before returning to the General's Mansion.
"General, the Second Prince has arrived."
Upon returning to the General's Mansion, Lin Zhiyuan heard the servants' report.
"You've come at just the right time!" Lin Zhiyuan sneered coldly, her face grim.
"Go and bring me the imperial decree bestowing the marriage upon you."
Fifteen minutes later, Lin Zhiyuan, holding the imperial decree of marriage, went straight to the reception room.
At a glance, I spotted Zhao Niancheng sitting in the main seat, drinking tea.
At this moment, Zhao Niancheng was dressed in a white long robe, holding a folding fan in his left hand.
A faint smile graced his handsome face.
They're probably thinking of something good!
She seems to be in a good mood.
But thinking about it, it makes sense.
Now that the imperial decree for marriage has been issued, the Emperor has actually betrothed Lin Zhiyuan to him.
This means that from now on, the General's Mansion is on his side.
In addition, the Yun Nation Yun Nation has replied that its sixth prince will arrive in the capital today.
My elder brother, Zhao Lin Cheng, also went to guard the border of Yun Nation.
When the time comes, the Yun Nation's army will press on and kill Zhao Lin Cheng on the border.
Once Zhao Lin Cheng is dead, the other imperial brothers are even less of a threat.
Once he became the emperor of the Da Wu Empire, it was a foregone conclusion, and no one could challenge it.
All the plans went incredibly smoothly.
It's understandable that you're in a good mood.
Seeing Lin Zhiyuan entering the main hall, the Second Prince stood up with a smile, " A-Yuan, you're back?"
In the past, Lin Zhiyuan would feel very happy and sweet when she heard Zhao Niancheng call her A-Yuan.
Because this title is reserved for close friends and family.
In the entire Da Wu Nation, only Zhao Lin Cheng and Zhao Niancheng could address her in this way.
However, Zhao Lin Cheng rarely addressed her in this way for the first time.
When the two meet, they mostly fight, rarely showing affection.
Over time, the name A-Yuan became Zhao Niancheng's exclusive name.
But now, hearing Zhao Niancheng address her in that way again, Lin Zhiyuan only felt disgusted.
" A-Yuan, Father has already arranged our marriage. I am making preparations, and in three days, I will surely marry you in a grand Entry."
As he spoke, Zhao Niancheng walked towards Lin Zhiyuan and reached out to hold Lin Zhiyuan hand.
Lin Zhiyuan took two steps back.
He looked at Zhao Niancheng with disdain.
"Do not touch me!"
A sinister glint flashed in Zhao Niancheng's eyes.
But they quickly restrained themselves.
But this scene did not escape Lin Zhiyuan's eyes.
When you like someone, even the air they breathe tastes sweet.
Similarly, when you dislike someone, you will feel disgusted even by their glance or gesture.
" A-Yuan, what's wrong?" Zhao Niancheng, somewhat at a loss.
I don't think I've offended this woman recently, have I?
Then something occurred to me.
His expression changed instantly. "You went to see my brother off this morning, didn't you? Did my brother say something to you?"
" A-Yuan, you should know how your brother feels about you. His words will undoubtedly belittle me; please don't believe them."
"Shut up, I haven't seen A-Cheng at all!" Lin Zhiyuan said in a deep voice.
" Lin Niancheng, Second Prince, how come I never noticed before that you were such a gossipmonger and a habitual liar?"
"I..."
Sizzle!
Just as Zhao Niancheng was about to say something, he saw Lin Zhiyuan tear the imperial edict in her hand to shreds.
"Now that the imperial decree for our marriage is gone, our engagement is hereby cancelled."
"You've gone mad! Tearing up the imperial edict is, at best, disobeying the emperor's command; at worst, it's treason, punishable by the extermination of your entire family."
"Exterminate nine generations of your family? Heh, guess why I dared to tear up the imperial edict?"
Zhao Niancheng suddenly had a bad feeling.
The next moment, a long sword was placed against Zhao Niancheng's neck.
"Second Prince Zhao Niancheng has colluded with the Yun Nation. The evidence is irrefutable. Come with me to the palace to meet the Emperor."
