She had heard of Xiao Heyun.

His mother was of humble origins and was murdered by the Queen after giving birth to him. Without his mother's protection, he had a very difficult life in the harem.

After finally growing up, he was ostracized by the other princes and couldn't survive.

So he joined the army. This man was a man of strong character and it took him seven or eight years to make a name for himself in the barracks.

Later, the emperor saw that he had made progress and named him the Night King.

It’s a pity that this man and Gu Zian disliked each other, and Gu Zian also contributed to his deprivation of military power.

Thinking about it this way, trying to conquer him by myself would be tantamount to seeking death.

[Host, I won't let you seek death, but the main quest is related to Xiao Heyun. If your points are too low, you will be deported.]

She was already dead in her original world, and repatriation meant death.

Nangong Yuan covered her forehead and felt a severe headache.

"I'm asking, can you fix this broken system? You didn't notice anything wrong with the target in three years?"

The system whispered in her ear, "The host system is too far away. The system is updated and upgraded every five years. This is the first time this has happened."

It was also Nangong Yuan's bad luck that the system was being upgraded at that time, so he made a mistake in targeting the wrong person.

"Then I deserve this bad luck. Do you know that everyone in Beijing knows that I like Gu Zian? Now it's impossible for me to conquer the villain, okay?"

The system was silent for a moment [Host, rest assured, Gu Zian has decided to cancel the engagement, so we just need to sever our ties with him. ]

"It's easier said than done."

Nangong Yuan anxiously walked around the room for a few times, but couldn't think of any solution.

But the transparent panel in front began to refresh the content automatically.

drip.

[The mission has been issued. Change the target of the strategy mission and lock on the target Xiao Heyun. ]

[Task content: Persuade the Shen family to cancel the engagement. To ensure the normal operation of the world, please fix the plot bugs and improve the character's personality.]

This task was no different from the previous ones. Nangong Yuan took a glance and sighed.

Canceling an engagement...it's not that easy.

Gu Zian was the prime minister of the current dynasty, and she had put in a lot of effort to arrange their engagement.

If I say cancel it now, I'm afraid my family won't agree.

"Oh, I'm so annoyed!"

She covered her head and cursed for a while before she turned over.

"Someone is coming."

"Miss, what's wrong?"

The maid who was guarding outside the reception room came in and asked.

"Has Gu Zian left?"

The little maid nodded and said, "Yes, the Prime Minister has returned home. Miss, do you have anything to say to him?"

Nangong Yuan shook her head: "No, I just asked."

He actually left directly, which probably meant that he had no intention of discussing this matter with General Shen in person.

"Asshole, I really underestimated you."

She thought for a moment before standing up and asking, "Is my father here?"

"Uh, the general is in the backyard."

"Come on, I'll go meet them."

Things always need to be resolved. Nangong Yuan cannot fall into a passive position, so she has to act as soon as possible.

"Yuan'er is here? How was your conversation with the Prime Minister?"

General Shen had just finished practicing boxing and was wiping his face with a handkerchief. He asked about this when he saw his daughter come in.

After all, the two families are already engaged, so it’s okay for them to talk.

Nangong Yuan looked at him, and her eyes suddenly turned red.

"What's going on? Why are you crying all of a sudden? Who made Yuan'er angry?"

General Shen was so frightened that he stood up from his chair and quickly wiped her face with a handkerchief.

"Father, I have something to tell you."

"Just tell me what's going on. Why are you crying?"

Nangong Yuan cried and shook her head, tears rolling down her beautiful eyes, which made her feel distressed: "This matter is related to the Prime Minister."

This made General Shen even more puzzled. He had never seen her cry like this in all these years.

"What happened? Did the Prime Minister make you angry? Tell father and I will help you deal with him!"

Hearing this, Nangong Yuan burst into tears and sobbed for a long time before she calmed down: "He said that he wants to break off the engagement with me."

"what!"

General Shen's face changed drastically, and he quickly asked, "Why? Your marriage to him was decided half a year ago, why would he want to break off the engagement?"

"The Prime Minister said that he has been thinking about it these days and feels that he doesn't like me. It would be a mistake to ruin our marriage, so he wants to cancel the engagement."

Seeing his daughter crying so miserably, General Shen flew into a rage: "How dare you, you brat! You are so untrustworthy. Where do you think my general's mansion is?"

Her marriage to Gu Zian was a big deal. If she called off the engagement without saying anything, wouldn't that be an slap in the face of the General's Mansion?

No wonder General Shen was so angry.

"Don't cry, Yuan'er. Daddy will explain everything to him tomorrow. He might just be saying it out of anger."

Nangong Yuan shook his head: "The Prime Minister never tells lies and never forces himself. I know what he says is true."

After saying that, she laid on the table and burst into tears: "I just didn't expect that my love was misplaced in the end!"

General Shen, a big, rough old man, didn't know how to comfort her, and was so anxious that he turned around and around: "Otherwise I'll beat him up, a guy who doesn't keep his word!"

"Father, that's not necessary. Since he doesn't like me, there's no need to force it. Let's just call it quits on this marriage."

"How can you do that? Your marriage has been approved by the palace. How can you just cancel it?" Although General Shen felt sorry for his daughter, he also knew the importance of the matter and would not agree to it immediately for her.

She knew this very well, but she still had to show her attitude.

"But, since he doesn't like me and doesn't want to marry me and keep me as a treasure, what's the point of this marriage?"

Nangong Yuan wiped her tears and said, "Since the Prime Minister has spoken, let him go and tell His Majesty."

It just so happened that he himself didn't want to get married, so he couldn't blame Nangong Yuan for going back on his word.

"Don't be afraid. This matter is still under discussion. Leave it to your father."

After talking for a while, Nangong Yuan was weakly helped back by the maid.

In the evening, General Shen discussed the matter with his wife and felt that canceling the engagement might not be an option.

"Yuan'er is deeply in love with the Prime Minister. Everyone in Kyoto knows that she has a crush on him. If we cancel the engagement, will she be able to get married in the future?"

Mrs. Shen completely disagreed. Even for the sake of her daughter's reputation, she couldn't just cancel the engagement.

"But the Prime Minister has spoken himself. Do we have to force him to take back his words?"

Madam Shen snorted coldly, "Even His Majesty had agreed to this marriage in the first place. There are so many eyes watching at the palace banquet. He wants to ruin Yuan'er's future so easily. No way!"

If Nangong Yuan knew that she was thinking this way, he would probably sigh to the sky.

After all, she is eager to break off the engagement as soon as possible, so the reputation is not that important.

"Then what do you want?"

Madam Shen thought for a moment and said, "I want to go to the palace to see the queen."

No matter what, the General's Mansion will not just swallow such a huge loss.
