Being a cannon fodder female supporting role is not as good as marrying a lucky villain

In Tai Chi Hall at this time.

Xie Yan sat in front of Pei Anlin without much emotion, but his overall aura had already become gentle. Anyone who was familiar with Xie Yan would know that he only showed his warm side in front of trusted people.

Pei Anlin poured a cup of tea for Xie Yan. Before he could speak, he heard Xie Yan say: "General Pei, since the tiger talisman is already in your hands, I will not take it back."

Hearing these words, Pei Anlin smiled happily: "His Highness's move has finally lived up to my years of hard work."

"But..." Pei Anlin changed the subject, "What should be given to His Highness must still be given."

As he spoke, Pei Anlin took out the Tiger Talisman from his arms and placed it on the table as if holding something insignificant.

Seeing the tiger talisman placed on the table, Yue Ming's eyelids twitched suddenly - this was the tiger talisman!It is the Tiger Talisman coveted by soldiers all over the world!

However, Pei Anlin's casual posture made Yue Ming feel that the tiger talisman was like an ordinary object.

Xie Yan frowned and was about to speak, but Pei Anlin took the lead and said, "Your Highness, our Pei family was actually holding on to the Tiger Talisman for self-protection."

"You also know that the deposed emperor is suspicious. If I didn't have the tiger talisman in my hand, and if my mother didn't have the [-] troops in her hand, I'm afraid the deposed emperor would have led his troops to raid our Pei family."

"We don't trust the deposed emperor, so we are constantly adding more chips to our hands. This is also to make His Highness behave better in the future. We also have many informants in the military."

"But now that His Highness is in charge, all our previous worries have disappeared." Pei Anlin smiled and pushed the tiger talisman in front of Xie Yan, "This tiger talisman should have been yours, Your Highness."

Listening to Pei Anlin's words, Xie Yan's jawline tightened.

He didn't want to accept the tiger charm.

Although Xie Yan did not speak, his hands were always on the tea cup, and his rejection was extremely obvious.

Seeing this, Pei Anlin sighed quietly: "Why bother, Your Highness? Our Pei family will stand by your side no matter what. If we didn't trust you as a person, we wouldn't do our best to help you ascend the throne."

"We never thought that after handing over the tiger talisman, you would burn the bridge." Pei Anlin said this and laughed jokingly. "Or, the reason why His Highness did not accept the tiger talisman was because he was worried that he would..."

"I'll accept it," Xie Yan suddenly said, "However, I also have something for General Pei to do."

"But according to His Highness's orders." Pei Anlin's expression immediately became serious.

"I also ask the general to select 20 elite troops from this [-]-strong army." Xie Yan said.

When he heard this, Pei Anlin felt that it sounded familiar. When he was thinking about where he had heard this before, he heard Xie Yan's next words.

"All these [-] elites belong to Gu Ning."

Xie Yan's voice was extremely firm, and his eyes were so majestic that no one dared to refuse.

The brothers Yue Ming and Yuerong on the side were already stunned.

They looked at each other, trying to see the cause of this incident in each other's eyes.

However, after the two looked at each other, they only saw the confusion in each other's eyes.

Pei Anlin also regained his consciousness at this time.

He stared at Xie Yan blankly, and finally thought about why these words sounded familiar. Taizong seemed to have said the same thing when he handed over [-] troops to Princess Da Chang. He was only five years old at that time.

"Your Highness..." After Yue Ming and Yue Rong came to their senses, their faces turned pale, and they wished they could explain the pros and cons to Xie Yan right away.

However, Xie Yan didn't care about their opinions at all. He looked at Pei Anlin and said, "General, you must complete this matter as soon as possible!"

"This is my betrothal gift to Ning'er."

Pei Anlin never expected that Xie Yan would make this request.

He had great trust in Xie Yan's character, so when the eldest princess made this suggestion, he agreed without hesitation. He also followed the trend when he proposed to present the tiger talisman in the court today.

Who knew Xie Yan wouldn’t want it!

He thought that the thank you banquet was to give him face, so he stayed quietly, preparing to thank the banquet in private after the next court.

But what shocked him even more came - Xie Yan actually wanted to give [-] troops as a betrothal gift to Gu Ning!

Pei Anlin felt as if his mind was wandering. This was an army of fifty thousand!It's an army of [-] people that has passed the Ming Dynasty!From then on, Gu Ning had [-] private soldiers!

Even the emperor only has [-] imperial troops!The rest of the army will return to various places.

Pei Anlin's eyes were extremely complicated. He stood up and said with some hesitation: "I have to go back and ask my mother about this."

Because he was too shocked, Pei Anlin could no longer salute in everything, and his steps even wandered a little.

Seeing this, Xie Yan understood and expressed his understanding: "Such a big matter really needs to be discussed with the eldest princess."

"However, before General Pei agrees to my request, I would like to ask General Pei to put the tiger talisman away."

Xie Yan grabbed the tiger charm and threw it towards Pei Anlin without hesitation.

Pei Anlin watched the tiger talisman being thrown towards him and was so frightened that he lost his mind. What if the tiger talisman fell to the ground and broke?

Pei Anlin hurriedly took the tiger talisman, and Xie Yan also took advantage of this moment to leave quickly.

Seeing this scene, Pei Anlin sighed deeply and had no choice but to take the matter back.

Yue Ming and Yue Rong followed Xie Yan, and they winked at each other, but no one dared to step forward and bring up the matter.

Xie Yan strode out of the Taiji Hall. His steps were very fast, and he arrived at the Chengqian Hall in just a quarter of an hour.

Outside the Chengqian Hall, there are large tracts of peach trees planted, and now the greenery can be faintly seen on the peach trees that are like dead branches.

In just three months, Chengqian Palace has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The original dilapidated Chengqian Hall has long since changed its appearance. The eaves are high and the corridors are winding. Every part is exquisite and luxurious.

Even the lighting on the corridor is made of luminous pearls.

Whenever they walked to the Chengqian Hall, Yue Ming and Yue Rong could realize that Xie Yan treated Gu Ning unusually.

The same goes for other palace people.

It can be said that Xie Yan personally supervised the construction of this Chengqian Palace, and every detail is filled with Xie Yan's affection for Gu Ning.

After seeing Cheng Qian Palace, Yue Rong, who originally wanted to persuade, suddenly fell silent.

Only Yue Ming took a deep breath, walked to Xie Yan, and whispered: "Your Highness, I feel that what you said today..."

Hearing this, Xie Yan raised a pair of phoenix eyes, his eyes extremely indifferent.

So when the words came to his lips, Yue Ming completely forgot about them.

He swallowed and whispered: "My subordinates feel that it is inappropriate to use the [-] troops as private soldiers for the princess. If you want to give the princess confidence, why not give a few hundred more personal guards... …”

"The confidence Ning'er needs is the [-]-strong army." Xie Yan said coldly, "The confidence Gu gives her is that she can leave Gu at any time."

Hearing this, Yue Ming was stunned.

Why does this sound a bit wrong?

Before his head could turn around, he still wanted to persuade Xie Yan, so he opened his mouth to continue speaking.

At this time, Yue Rong had come to his senses.

He quickly grabbed Yue Ming and trotted to the corner.

After Xie Yan's intimidating eyes disappeared, Yue Rong just breathed a sigh of relief, but unexpectedly, he received a punch from Yue Ming in his lower abdomen.

"Why are you stopping me?" Yue Ming said displeased.

Yue Rong rubbed his belly and shouted: "Brother! Don't you still know His Highness's thoughts about the Princess?"

"The clear meaning of His Highness's words is - if he treats the princess badly in the future and makes her dissatisfied, the princess can leave him at any time."

"Your Highness has done so much for the princess, and you still dare to persuade me?" Yue Rong looked at Yue Ming with a look of disbelief on his face, "You don't want to die?"

Hearing this, Yue Ming's eyes twitched, and he stared at Yue Rong fiercely: "You are the only smart one! But if these [-] troops are in the hands of the princess, she will rebel..."

"Brother! I said you are really crazy! It's not like you don't know that the imperial seal and the late emperor's edict! Didn't the princess find them for our highness?"

"If the princess really wants to rebel, why bother to do things for His Highness?" Yue Rong rolled his eyes angrily, "Others don't know, don't you know?"

Yue Ming opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything to refute.

The fact is as Yue Rong said, if Gu Ning really had other intentions, he might not have helped Xie Yan.

As for Xie Yan being able to get where he is today, apart from himself, the Pei family and Gu Ning have all contributed a lot.

Yue Ming lowered his head and said in a low voice: "I was actually frightened by those words."

"According to what I say! Those ministers just can't eat sour grapes!" Yue Rong sneered, thinking that he had seen through everything, "Their daughters can't enter the palace and fight for power for their family, so they think about it. The princess was also dragged into the water."

"But they also don't think about it. How could our Highness be so wise and powerful that he could be persuaded by their few words?" Yue Rong snorted several times as he spoke.

Hearing this, Yue Ming nodded calmly: "Indeed, these days, there are a lot of rumors about the princess in the capital."

Speaking of this, Yue Ming looked embarrassed and found it difficult to speak.

Seeing him stop, Yue Rong looked at him doubtfully: "Why didn't you say anything anymore? What kind of rumor is it? We have to deal with it quickly!"

However, Yue Ming grabbed his hand at this moment: "Don't!"

"To the princess, it's a malicious slander." Yue Ming whispered, "They... they said that the princess does not abide by women's conduct..."

As soon as these words came out, Yue Rong was stunned, and then a look of anger appeared on his face: "How dare they... How dare they maliciously slander the princess! They also made up these rumors!"

If it were an ordinary person, I'm afraid he would already have a grudge over this matter!

Thinking of this, Yue Rong's face became even more ugly: "Brother! This matter cannot be hidden! We must tell His Highness! We must not let those people run wild!"
