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

Chapter 188: Acting Rashly

"Jie'er!" the governor shouted directly.

Lin Liujie's expression changed instantly; he never imagined that his father would be cursing him here.

The servants around Lin Liujie had been holding him down, but the governor ordered them to release him. After they did, Lin Liujie grabbed his sword and tried to rush out.

In fact, his son was extremely skilled in martial arts, and more importantly, he also had insightful abilities. It was just a pity that he was too impulsive, which was why the governor did not allow Lin Liujie to serve as an official in the court.

"You didn't hear a single word your father said just now, did you? Did it all just go down your throat? Do you know what the consequences of your actions will be?"

"Father, this incompetent emperor is already bullying us. Are we still going to put up with this? He actually wants to marry my sister off to such a remote place. What if my sister is bullied?"

Lin Liujie turned his gaze to the governor, hoping that the governor would listen to what he had to say. The governor naturally understood Lin Liujie's meaning, but as far as the governor was concerned, he had no right to oppose Gan Yanling.

"Father, just let me go into the palace and kill this dog emperor. I'll say it was my own idea to kill him, and it won't implicate you."

Unexpectedly, he was slapped in the face by the governor again.

"Brother, you're really too impulsive!" Even the usually gentle Lan Yan raised her voice at this moment.

At this moment, Lan Yan picked up the teacup on the table and splashed the water inside onto Lin Liujie without hesitation. Lin Liujie was soaked, but his emotions were no longer as agitated as before. Lan Yan then asked Lin Liujie, "Brother, have you calmed down now?"

After Lan Yan said that, Lin Liujie naturally nodded in agreement.

Calm down, though I was still very angry. Thinking about Gan Yanling's various actions, I felt that Gan Yanling was truly a strange emperor. More importantly, how could a monarch like him still be able to sit firmly on the throne?

"I also want to tell you that you are indeed capable of killing Gan Yanling, but don't forget that Gan Luo's military power is something that neither you nor I can resist."

Lin Liujie took a deep breath, trying his best to calm his anger. The more he tried to calm his anger, the more volatile it became.

"This king told my father that if he was willing to let Lan Yan marry, then Lan Yan would marry as a princess."

Lin Liujie then asked the governor what the name of this neighboring country was. The governor shook his head, not knowing.

"Could it be Princess Xu Jiu's kingdom?"

The governor was completely unaware of this, and the fact that the governor had met with Gan Yanling was also known to other officials in the court.

When the officials in the court learned of this news, they were all very surprised, never expecting that Gan Yanling would want to send the governor's daughter to marry a foreign ruler.

When Gan Luo learned that Gan Yanling had such thoughts, Gan Luo went directly into the palace without even announcing his arrival, and went straight to the Imperial Study.

"Please wait here for a moment, Your Highness, while I go and report to His Majesty."

Unexpectedly, Gan Luo glanced at Xiao Jiangzi with a cold face and told him to stand aside. Gan Luo then pushed open the door to the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, do you know what you are doing?"

Once the governor's daughter is married off, the governor will harbor resentment towards the emperor, and if any trouble arises later, this will inevitably lead to...

More importantly, the small country of Perth has always been fond of stirring up trouble.

If the governor's daughter marries into the family, she is very likely to be tormented by them.

"Your Majesty, how come you have time to come to the palace, and you didn't even send someone to inform me?"

At this moment, Gan Luo's face showed a hint of anger, which was the first time Gan Yanling had seen Gan Luo so angry in a long time.

Gan Luo felt that Gan Yanling's actions were being orchestrated by someone behind the scenes, and he wanted to see who was behind it all.

"Elder sister, they want to form a marriage alliance with us. We can just agree. Besides, this will save us from a war, won't it?"

If war were to break out between the two countries, it would ultimately be the ordinary people who suffer. But if the conflict could be resolved through a marriage alliance, why not...?

"Are you asking a woman to exchange for peace and prosperity for your kingdom?"

"That's not what my elder sister meant."

A group of ministers had already arrived outside the Imperial Study, and they all told Gan Yanling that he absolutely must not do that.

"Your Majesty, you must not forget that I am a monarch."

Looking at his younger brother and hearing his words, Gan Luo felt a chill run down his spine. "Are you saying I'm manipulating you? Turning you into a puppet emperor?"

Gan Luo didn't expose many things, just to save face for the last time.

But now Gan Yanling has said such things, how can he not disappoint Gan Luo?

"Your Majesty, that's not what I meant. I always think things through carefully before making any decision."

Finally, Gan Luo analyzed the pros and cons with him, and the advantage was that a war would not break out in the next year or two.

Gan Luo then cited their marriage alliance from the year before as an example.

Hearing what Gan Luo said, Gan Yanling suddenly remembered everything, realizing that he had completely forgotten about the matter.

Damn it, he had completely forgotten about that.

He remembered that a small country across the border had formed a marriage alliance with them, but in the end, they used this princess as a hostage, and the country eventually perished.

At this moment, Gan Yanling asked Gan Luo what he should do next.

Gan Luo raised his head and looked at Gan Yanling: "I only want to tell you one thing. Everything I have done is for your own good, for the good of the country. You can discuss how to do these things with the ministers. I will not interfere."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gan Luo left without looking back.

When Gan Luo emerged from the imperial study, the surrounding ministers exchanged bewildered glances, and for some reason, they found themselves admiring him for a moment.
