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

Chapter 199: Conferring the Title of Imperial Concubine

It's not that I don't have a man I like, it's just that the man in my heart doesn't intend to get married and have children.

For a fleeting moment, Gan Yanling was somewhat puzzled.

He didn't know who Xu Jiu was talking about.

"The person I love is His Majesty, but His Majesty has no intention of taking any concubines, so I have no choice but to leave."

"You like me?"

Gan Yanling was genuinely surprised. He never expected that Xu Jiu would like him. Gan Yanling had indeed said in front of everyone that he did not intend to take any concubines, but he never expected that this person would like him.

"I had seen His Majesty's portrait before coming here. I thought His Majesty was really handsome and dashing, which I admired very much. But when I arrived here, His Majesty told everyone directly that he did not intend to take any concubines."

Gan Yanling looked at Xu Jiu in front of him. Xu Jiu was extremely beautiful, especially the beauty mark under her eye.

It would be a lie to say that Gan Yanling was unmoved, but Gan Yanling had to do it for the sake of the country and its people.

Then I thought about it carefully again, and even if it was such a piece of junk, so what?

"Jiu'er, since you like me, then I will grant your wish. I wonder what you think?"

Xu Jiu was truly astonished that Gan Yanling would actually agree, which showed that he had not disappointed his father's expectations.

At this moment, Gan Yanling walked over to Xu Jiu and picked her up in his arms.

After that, Gan Yanling and Xu Jiu naturally had a passionate encounter.

It is unknown how much time has passed, but Gan Yanling has already dressed and entered the Imperial Study to write an imperial edict.

"By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: the princess of the neighboring country is hereby conferred the title of Consort Ling, and this is proclaimed throughout the land..."

He then handed the imperial edict to Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu was the chief steward of the Imperial Household Department. When Jiang Yu received this imperial edict, he must have been quite frightened. He almost dropped the edict in his hand. How could His Majesty want to confer a concubine after only one day?

When Gan Luo learned of this news, the teacup in his hand fell to the ground, and he stood up abruptly. Gan Luo looked at the waiter in front of him and asked him, "Is this true?"

"It is indeed true that His Majesty bestowed the title of Consort Ling upon the princess of the neighboring country and granted her the Shuanghua Palace."

The princess from the neighboring country was supposed to leave tomorrow, but she was made a concubine today. What exactly happened? Gan Luo really wanted to know the answer, so he went to the palace himself.

"What exactly is going on with the Emperor? Why did he suddenly bestow the title of Consort Ling upon the princess of the neighboring country?"

As soon as Gan Luo arrived at the Imperial Study, he questioned Gan Yanling, who then told him, "The princess came here to arrange a marriage alliance. My elder sister, there's no reason to send her back."

Gan Luo used mind-reading abilities to learn Gan Yanling's inner thoughts...

So Gan Yanling also had feelings for this princess. Ha. Gan Luo sneered.

Gan Luo then arrived at Shuanghua Palace and saw Xu Jiu dressed as a concubine.

Do you even know what you're doing right now?

Gan Luo questioned Xu Jiu, who replied that he naturally knew everything.

"How can you do this to Shangguan Mufeng?"

Xu Jiu remained silent. After a moment of contemplation, she told Gan Luo, "I came here solely to marry the Emperor. How could you possibly be interested in such ordinary mortals?"

"If I were to discover your ulterior motives, I would be capable of..."

In the end, Gan Luo left in a fit of anger. After leaving, he went outside and, carrying a sword, went into the bamboo forest to practice his swordsmanship, cutting down a large area of ​​bamboo.

Lin Fengmian had been searching for Gan Luo, but he never expected that he would not be able to find Gan Luo after searching for a long time. Suddenly he remembered the elegant residence that Gan Luo had visited before, so he came here and saw Gan Luo dancing with his sword. More importantly, it was raining heavily.

But Gan Luo showed no intention of leaving. Lin Fengmian felt heartbroken seeing Gan Luo's state and went directly to Gan Luo's side.

Lin Fengmian held Gan Luo tightly in his arms. At this moment, Lin Fengmian understood what Gan Luo was angry about. In fact, Lin Fengmian had never expected that the princess of the neighboring country would actually become Gan Yanling's concubine.

As for Gan Luo, he hoped that the princess of the neighboring country could become Shangguan Mufeng's wife, but in the end, he found that the two of them still missed each other.

After an unknown amount of time, Gan Luo finally calmed down, felt a warm embrace, looked up at Lin Fengmian, and hugged her tightly. "You wouldn't betray me, would you?"

Lin Fengmian reassured Gan Luo that he would never betray him. Since Gan Luo had always been by his side, Lin Fengmian decided to stay by Gan Luo's side and not go anywhere else.

Gan Luo felt a warm glow in his heart, and before he knew how much time had passed, he had fallen asleep.

Hearing the even breathing sounds coming from inside his arms, Lin Fengmian looked down and couldn't help but kiss Gan Luo.

Afterwards, Gan Luo was carried back to the princess's residence. The people around saw the situation between Gan Luo and Lin Fengmian and couldn't help but start to suspect.

"His Highness was in a bad mood and went to practice swordsmanship in the bamboo forest."

Then, Green Bamboo and Jade Bamboo helped Gan Luo change out of his wet clothes.

On the other side, Shangguan Mufeng was shocked when he learned of this news.

I never imagined that Xu Jiu would become Gan Yanling's concubine, and that Gan Yanling would even bestow upon her the title of Consort Ling.

For some reason, Shangguan Mufeng was overwhelmed with mixed feelings at that moment. He was not sad, but he was also sad. He couldn't quite see what was going on in his heart.

Shangguan Nantian then took a pot of Daughter's Red wine and walked up to Shangguan Mufeng.

When Shangguan Mufeng saw his father, he was a little surprised by the Daughter Red wine in his hand.

"I know you're feeling bad, but what I want to tell you is that you have to get through everything, you can't just not get through it, do you understand?"

Unexpectedly, Shangguan Mufeng smiled faintly. "Father, you don't need to worry too much about your son. I know I'm fine."

Taking this opportunity, Shangguan Nantian mentioned that the governor's daughter had feelings for him.
