After being reborn, I was won over by the heartfelt words of my loyal bodyguard.

Chapter 426: The Mastermind

"I have always been a man of my word. Since I have already said so, I will certainly agree to this matter. So you don't need to worry too much. I have something else I want to tell you. Who is the person behind this? I hope you can tell me."

They were all just looking at each other, lost in thought. In truth, none of them knew who the mastermind was. All they knew was that a masked person had been meeting with them here and instructing them to do certain things. Other than that, they knew nothing.

At this very moment, Shangguan Mufeng must be pondering how to find out where this person is.

In fact, Shangguan Mufeng was actually very worried about Gan Luo's situation at this time. According to Shangguan Mufeng's understanding, there seemed to be some rumors circulating in the capital, and these rumors were all aimed at Gan Luo. He really didn't know how Gan Luo would resist these things.

She was just a woman, a princess, yet she had to endure so much. How could Shangguan Mufeng not feel angry?

Gan Luo, on the other hand, was awakened from his sleep.

Gan Luo had a nightmare, and when he woke up, he saw Lin Fengmian lying by the bed. Gan Luo reached out and touched Lin Fengmian, who then woke up.

Then Gan Luo decided to visit Shangguan Tian'er. For some reason, he was very worried about her health, as if something had happened.

Gan Luo arrived at the palace and found Shangguan Tian'er coughing due to a cold. Gan Luo immediately brought the Divine Eagle to the palace to watch over her.

At this moment, Shangguan Tian'er turned her attention to Gan Luo.

She never expected that the women's team would suddenly arrive here. They hurriedly covered themselves with blankets, afraid that they would infect Gan Luo with their illness later.

"Your Highness, it would be best if you didn't stay here any longer. What if I accidentally infect you with this disease later? Your Highness, please leave now and I will come back to see you after I have recovered."

Gan Luo glanced at Shangguan Tian'er as he listened to her words.

"I don't care at all. I know my own body. I just want to ask why you suddenly caught a cold."

Shangguan Tian'er then directly told Gan Luo the whole story.

Gan Luo never expected that Shangguan Tian'er's drinking of contraceptive soup would be discovered. Gan Luo then decided to cover up this lie for Shangguan Tian'er.

Finally, Gan Luo came to find Gan Yanling in person. When Gan Yanling saw Gan Luo, he was a little dejected and just kept his head down.

At this moment, Gan Yanling felt as if he were a useless person, an emperor who was in such a predicament...

"I have something to tell you. Do you know why Shangguan Tian'er is drinking a contraceptive soup at this time? It's because Shangguan Tian'er's body is not suitable for pregnancy."

How could Gan Yanling possibly believe such a thing?

At this moment, Gan Luo told the person in front of him about some of Shangguan Tian'er's previous symptoms. Unexpectedly, Gan Yanling thought about it seriously and it seemed that it was indeed the case.

"I never imagined that you would punish this woman by making her kneel in the snow for three hours."

Gan Luo then slapped Gan Yanling across the face without hesitation, which naturally enraged Gan Yanling.

“I am the emperor, and you are nothing more than a princess. At most, you still have to call me emperor here. How dare you lay a hand on me here?”

"Even if you are the emperor, so what? I am your elder sister. Haven't you heard that an elder sister is like a mother? I have the right to teach you a lesson."

The two of them naturally had a big argument there. The eunuchs and palace maids outside hurriedly left, afraid that they would be implicated later.

None of them expected that they would actually argue here; they were just thinking.

"I'm quite surprised that Her Highness the Princess and His Majesty are arguing so fiercely here. I never expected it..."

"Actually, we both have the same thought: they are both born of the same mother, so why are they arguing so fiercely now?"

Finally, Gan Luo tried to reason with Gan Yanling, but then just stared at him with a look of disappointment and left.

"I hope you can think carefully about what I have said. As the emperor, have you been able to remain humble and composed?"

When the officials in the court learned of this, they naturally began to belittle Gan Luo. They even felt that Gan Luo should not have this power and that they should take back the military power of the National Protection Army from Gan Luo as soon as possible.

"As a woman, to wield such power, does she truly intend to seize power?"

When Shangguan Tian'er learned of all that Gan Luo had done for her, she naturally felt guilty.

She never imagined that Gan Luo would do such things for her.

Shangguan Tian'er then struggled to get up from the bed, but because she was swaying, she fell to the ground with a thud.

However, Shangguan Tian'er really didn't want to have Gan Yanling's child.

Upon learning of the argument between Gan Luo and Gan Yanling, Lin Fengmian rushed over to Gan Luo and comforted him.

At the same time, he had already confirmed his identity.

Because of the letter and the jade pendant he received last night, he already knew who he was.
