Chapter 687 Choose a woman for the emperor

Nan Wanyan felt a little sour in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She just stood quietly, obediently and politely.

Behind her, Feng Yang also bowed obediently.

The Empress Dowager raised her hand to signal Nan Wanyan to stand up, "The Ai family heard that at the palace banquet yesterday, you were the one who saved the prince's life despite being in danger?"

Nan Wanyan stood up straight and told the truth.

"The daughter of the people just couldn't bear to see His Highness the Crown Prince in such pain, so she came to save him. It is also the daughter of the people's honor to be able to save the Crown Prince."

Neither fighting nor grabbing, neither humble nor arrogant, the Empress Dowager's attitude towards Nan Wanyan was quite gentle and she hummed in approval.

Then, she looked at Nan Wanyan and slowly asked, "You are a decent person. When did you learn this medical skill?"

Nan Wanyan didn't hear any doubt or harshness in the Queen Mother's tone, so she relaxed and assumed she was chatting with the old lady.

"Back to the Empress Dowager, Minnu's family has been practicing medicine for generations, and Minnu's medical skills were learned from her father and grandfather."

The Empress Dowager nodded slightly, listening to Bai Zhi's voice and the indifference in Bai Zhi's eyes always reminded her of Nan Wanyan for no reason.

She didn't know whether she was mumbling or whispering to someone. She patted her knees and muttered, "It's like, it's kind of like."

Since Nan Wanyan left, she has no special affection for the women who have entered the palace one after another, and she has never been fond of them.

But she repeatedly introduced people to the harem to Gu Mohan for Gu Mohan's sake. Now that she saw Bai Zhi, she seemed to understand the reason why Gu Mohan kept Bai Zhi despite his objections.

There was indeed something about Yan'er's appearance back then that made her feel inexplicably familiar. Although she didn't like him, she didn't dislike him either.

After thinking about it, she sighed, "Bai Zhi, do you know why the Ai family called you here?"

"People's girls are stupid, please express it clearly."

The Queen Mother took a deep look at Nan Wanyan and said, "You are Major General Yun's fiancée, right?"

Feng Yang frowned and glanced at Nan Wanyan worriedly, but Nan Wanyan nodded with a normal expression, "Yes."

The Empress Dowager's face became more solemn, "You are the wife of a minister, and the Emperor brought you into the palace, which is against common sense. He is the emperor and the emperor, and countless pairs of eyes in the entire court and the world are staring at him, etc. Let’s see him make mistakes.”

"The greatest wish of the Ai family in this life is to see the emperor be a wise king, so that the West Country and the people can be peaceful, the borders are stable, and the prosperous age is peaceful. Therefore, the Ai family will never let him make mistakes, do you understand?" Let's not talk about Bai Zhi's story first. Regardless of his status, even if Yun Heng is willing to give in and cut off his love, it will only bring disaster to Chao Gang!

If the people of the world knew that the mighty God of War, the new emperor who had just ascended the throne, actually did such a shameful thing, how would they be able to obey him in the future?

If the emperor does this, can others do the same?

Gu Mohan was a rare imperial talent in a century. He went on an expedition at a young age, became famous all over the world, and won the hearts of the army.

After returning to Beijing, even though he had been suppressed for five years and never made any achievements, as long as he wanted to take action, he would get a hundred responses!
Now in his first year, although the government affairs have not fallen behind, but emotionally, he is always in a mess. She is really afraid that he will go astray...

Nan Wanyan's brows frowned. She had always known that the imperial grandmother had expectations for Gu Mohan. Now that Gu Mohan had done such a stupid thing, no wonder the old man was so angry.

When she was about to make it clear, the Empress Dowager said softly: "The Ai family said this not because they thought you were deliberately getting close to the Emperor."

"Ai Jia, let me tell you clearly. The emperor loves you so much now because he regards you as the queen's substitute. He should look at you more and take care of you more."

"But you have to know that a substitute is just a substitute after all. Don't have any extravagant hopes."

Nan Wanyan pursed her lips. Although some people always said that she was a substitute, and she felt a little bit herself, but...

She wondered, was she really that important in Gu Mohan's heart, so important that everyone thought that the appearance of "Bai Zhi" must be the substitute of "Nan Wanyan"?

Rather than Gu Mohan changing his mind?
She stared at the Queen Mother's slightly thin face and spoke calmly.

"The people's daughter understands that the people's daughter has never thought about it. The empress dowager specially talked to the people's daughter so much. There must be something that needs the people's daughter to do, right?"

The Queen Mother looked at Nan Wanyan in surprise, as if she didn't expect her attitude to be so decisive.

If it were an ordinary woman, she would have felt uncomfortable hearing these words. After all, who is willing to give up the emperor's favor?
"Yes, the Ai family came to you because they want to ask you for a favor. Now, you are the only person in the palace who can get close to the emperor. The Ai family wants you to help the emperor fall in love with someone else so that he can be freed as soon as possible. Happy Knot.”

Nan Wanyan was a little stunned, "What do you mean, let the daughter of the people be the matchmaker for the emperor?"

If you introduce a woman to Gu Mohan, will he really not strangle her to death...
