Back to Fate
Chapters. 201
And a while later Sang Kasim Bao had also returned with the Great General Shen Guo Feng with him.
"Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor, may he always prosper and live long" said General Shen Guo Feng when he was in front of the most powerful man in the Land of Wuxi.
"Don't be too distraught towards me Guo Feng," Emperor Huo Yu Yuan casually replied and tried to make things less tense or formal.
"Hamba is not brave, Your Majesty. Is there anything I need to deal with Your Majesty" Great General Shen Guo Feng said very politely.
And unlike when the Emperor called him in person, of course, they would chat in a casual way without having to pay attention to ethics and formalities.
But this time it looks very different. It was as if the Great General Shen Guo Feng was now restricting himself and starting to distance himself from the Emperor who was his best friend since young.
"Hahhh, Guo Feng. Let alone looking at your daughter's attitude." had not had time for the Emperor to continue his sentence, but had already been cut off by General Shen Guo Feng.
"Sorry Your Majesty, the matter has nothing to do with you, Your Majesty, at all,"elak Sang General Shen Guo Feng who really did not want to discuss regarding this matter anymore at this time.
After all, discussing about it would further make the Great General feel very disappointed and also hurt.
Nor will it change or produce anything for him. Because now he has not only lost his beloved wife but also his two children with his wife.
Emperor Huo Yu Yuan who saw the reaction shown by his best friend knew how grievous the suffering his best friend was going through.
The Emperor could do nothing, could only regret it and felt extremely guilty towards the General Shen Guo Feng as well as his children.
In addition, Emperor Huo Yu Yuan also felt very depressed and felt unable to account for this matter with the Wexia Empire's side.
However because Shen Guo Feng did not want to discuss the matter anymore. So he didn't insist anymore either.
The Emperor began to discuss what his purpose was to summon the General to meet him.
"Guo Feng actually there is still something else that I should ask your opinion about" Emperor Huo Yu Yuan said.
"Please Your Majesty mention, after all this Minister also has no right to influence the decision His Majesty took. Servants are really not brave" said General Shen with great restraint before the Emperor.
"What empty are you? Of course you can, because this time it's also about your own third daughter. What do you think of that girl? Is she compatible with my Son Huo Lin Dan or is she the partner of Prince Huo Lin Jin?" asked Emperor Huo Yu Yuan in an indecipherable tone of voice.
Either this is good or bad. But according to Sang Kasim Bao who watched from the side. He felt that the Emperor was testing the General directly. This could worsen the relationship between the two.
Because after all a father definitely does not want his daughter to be looked at one eye and also underestimated by others, even though it is an Emperor.
But what happened next was completely different from everything Kasim Bao had anticipated before.
"Your Majesty, you can do anything, I won't argue anything anymore. Especially when I decided to send him out of the General's Residence. From then on he had no relation whatsoever to the rest of the family of our General's residence. And after seeing such a striking change it also further convinced the servant, that the action of the servant to expel him from the residence was very truly." said General Shen Guo Feng frankly and openly.
The Emperor as well as Eunuch Bao really could not help but be astonished by what the General had just said.
Until in the end the Emperor was able to respond after being stunned for a while.
"Well, if it's like that. But do you know who the person who was secretly the support behind the girl was?" asked Emperor Huo Yu Yuan who seemed to provoke honesty from his friend.
"Hamba doesn't know, but I just found this and can't trace who the mysterious person behind it is," replied General Shen Guo Feng while taking out a scroll from inside his clothes and directly handing it to Eunuch Bao who was not far from him.
The Emperor furrowed his brows, saluting his skill, dedication and loyalty. Although he has been much harmed. But he remains professional and does not confuse personal problems with government affairs.
Emperor Huo Yu Yuan felt that the Companion had now tried to draw a hard line and dodge from him.
It really made him very sad and also felt very uncomfortable with the circumstances turning awkward like this.
Emperor Huo Yu Yuan was also aware that this could all happen as well because of his own deeds. As a result of selfishness and also the carelessness that he did to destroy the only person who has been helping and supporting him in everything.
"Hah.this is all my fault, it is appropriate that Guo Feng will not be able to forgive me. But I would prefer if he could be angry or fight with me, rather than be closed and away from me. Guo Feng, I really never expected our relationship to be so close like that brother to end like this because of the mistake I made. Can you forgive me, I have truly regretted it." cried Emperor Huo Yu Yuan in his heart.
After Emperor Huo Yu Yuan received the scroll carried by Eunuch Bao from General Shen Guo Feng. Now the focus of Emperor Huo Yu Yuan was shifted to a scroll in his hand at this time.
He opened it and read all the information contained in the scroll.
Well actually the scroll contained all the information regarding Shen Sie Mei after coming out of the General's residence. But inside there of course can not trace how the girl can change in such a way in just one night.
But an information that says where the girl lives after getting out of the General's residence. And also a mysterious figure who had black magic power that suddenly appeared when the Shen girl was about to head for the palace.
Which most likely they had a special agreement so that the figure could even give something that seemed to be very useful to that Shen Sie Mei. And besides that there are still some other things described in the scroll
After Emperor Huo Yu Yuan saw and read the entire scroll he no doubt immediately frowned deeply.
As if thinking very hard. But after that Emperor Huo Yu Yuan immediately turned his attention back to General Shen Guo Feng.
"Guo Feng, what do you mean to leave this matter to me? Aren't you afraid that your family will be threatened with destruction?" the Emperor Huo Yu Yuan asked in surprise and did not understand.
"Hamba has said before that the girl is not part of the General Family anymore. And didn't His Majesty the Emperor also know that this little Servant Family had been destroyed long ago? And even since this subordinate started to build a household, everything has also been destroyed. Especially now that I have nothing more. It was just that this lowly servant begged His Majesty one thing not to involve the Family of the servant sisters who were descendants of the previous Great General Shen. Who is also one of the protector figures and founder of the Wuxi Empire. Regardless, even if His Majesty the Emperor wanted to punish or destroy the personal servant, it would not be a problem like a servant. After all, the life of the servant is no longer valuable without the love of the late Nian'er and the children of the servant with him. It's just that the Servant will never be willing and will never stay silent if the family life of the servant sisters is also rejected by anyone. Although.." said General Shen Guo Feng stopped by a firm speech.
"Guo Feng, I know I was wrong. I will never make your family's life just crumble. Especially you, you are also a good friend of mine and I have considered as my own sister where maybe I would act like that!" said the Emperor firmly and with a look of disbelief because his friend himself has been so far away and isolated himself like only a superior and subordinate. This was indeed an extremely incredible blow in the heart of Emperor Huo Yu Yuan. Even more so when he learned of the betrayal of Empress Xiao Mu Wen against him.
When the Emperor was silent and pensive in his own mind, General Shen immediately resigned, after he was done with his goal of meeting the Emperor.
"Because all have been conveyed what is the purpose of the servant at this time. So this servant please withdraw first. Greetings Your Majesty the Emperor, may you live a long life." said General Shen Guo Feng flatly. And as if he did not care about the Emperor who is still pensive and feels guilty about him.
But what is possible, however strong and powerful the General Shen, is, still he will not be able to withstand the sadness of disappointment and also hatred for himself and especially for those who directly or indirectly have made his life destroyed as destroyed as it is today.
So regardless of whether the Emperor allowed him to leave or not, he stepped out of Emperor Huo Yu Yuan's office, ignoring everything else.
Because honestly after all the problems regarding the case that had caused the disappearance of his late wife Xi Yu Nian's life was resolved. Then General Shen Guo Feng will immediately resign and give up his office which has been a pride for him all along. And will live freely by traveling anywhere. And follow the two Sons and Daughters officially wherever they both go.
Even though he had to do it in a stealthy way. Because General Shen Guo Feng was already very determined, to make up for his mistake and protect the two of them with all his might.
If he had to bet his life even if he did not care. And he's very willing to have Meti for the sake of his children.
While Emperor Huo Yu Yuan was petrified again when he witnessed the attitude and desire of the friend who wanted to stay away from him.
"It is so vile and selfless of me that it can make people who have always defended and also been loyal to me in joy and sorrow hurt so deeply. It's all my fault, He certainly has the right to be angry and even kill me, for destroying his life and happiness with his loved ones," murmured Emperor Huo Yu Yuan as he watched the departure of the Companion, General Shen Guo Feng.
"Your Majesty don't blame yourself, this old slave is sure that the Great General Shen Guo Feng also understands the truth. This old slave also knew that General Shen Guo Feng was a very wise figure in judging a matter. The proof is that the Lord General is still willing to give the scroll and give the issue of the youngest Princess completely to His Majesty. Didn't that show how loyal and sincere he is to His Majesty the Emperor. Otherwise the General would definitely use this great opportunity to take revenge on all those who had wronged him and his family. Just relying on the troops in his hands coupled with his personal guard troops, of course it would be very easy for him to earth the scorched every guilty family. Even this Wuxi Imperial Family is no exception," persuaded the Eunuch Bao who tried to appease his master Emperor Huo Yu Yuan.
Which is currently being hit by endless problems, both government and personal problems.
