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

Chapter 150: The Entrustment

"Do any of you officials have a candidate in mind?"

Upon hearing Gan Yanling's words, the ministers in the court naturally looked at each other in bewilderment. For them, they were all recommended by someone and were keeping in mind the Minister of War's instructions.

“Your Majesty, I do recall that the official Shangguan has one at home. This one is relatively strong, and more importantly, it is knowledgeable and has considerable fighting ability.”

Gan Yanling never expected that these officials would actually praise Shangguan Mufeng here, and Shangguan Nantian was also shocked at that moment, looking at the officials in front of him in disbelief.

These officials had maintained a superficial relationship with Shangguan Nantian for the past few days, yet now they were pushing his son to become a military officer.

However, Shangguan Nantian did not want his son to become a military general; he only hoped that his son could live an ordinary life.

Shangguan Nantian took the initiative to step forward and told Gan Yanling.

"Your Majesty, I believe my son is not capable of serving as a military general. I urge Your Majesty to grant him this position..."

Before he could finish speaking, Gan Yanling had already ordered someone to invite Shangguan Mufeng into the court. Shangguan Mufeng was practicing swordsmanship at home when someone from the court arrived.

Shangguan Mufeng was somewhat surprised at that moment, wondering why the people from the imperial court had come here.

"Young Master Shangguan, His Majesty requests your presence at the court."

Shangguan Mufeng wondered if this was serious. He had only been back for less than three days, and Gan Yanling wanted to invite him to the court. Could it be that something had happened to his father?

For some reason, he was filled with worry at that moment, and eventually followed the Imperial Guard into the palace.

It must be said that the palace is indeed quite magnificent, with red walls and bricks, but the walls are too high, and if one wanted to get out, it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

When Shangguan Mufeng arrived at the court, he was surprised to find that the officials were giving him strange looks. Shangguan Mufeng felt something was off for a moment. He looked at them, then walked into the main hall and respectfully bowed to Gan Yanling.

"Long live your majesty."

Finally, seeing the worried look on Shangguan Nantian's face, Shangguan Mufeng knew that something serious must have happened.

However, Shangguan Mufeng remained silent, neither sad nor happy. At this moment, Gan Yanling looked Shangguan Mufeng up and down. Shangguan Mufeng was Gan Luo's male favorite before this.

To become Gan Luo's male concubine, he must have some extraordinary qualities. Looking at him now, he is indeed quite good. Although he looks slender, he actually walks with a strong gait.

After that, Gan Yanling brought Shangguan Mufeng to the training ground.

Shangguan Mufeng was unaware of Gan Yanling and the others' intentions, but ultimately had no choice but to follow them to this place.

Afterwards, Gan Yanling directly summoned the Protectorate Army. When this general arrived, he didn't know Gan Yanling's intentions, but he still bowed to Gan Yanling. Although the military power was in Gan Luo's hands, the person in front of him was still the emperor, so he still had to give him face.

"How could Your Majesty have time to come? This humble place is rather rugged."

"I came here only to test someone. I want this person in front of me to compete with you. I wonder what General Su thinks?"

Upon hearing this, General Su immediately understood Gan Yanling's intention. It seemed that the person in front of him was someone Gan Yanling wanted to cultivate. However, he vaguely remembered this person; he seemed to be the son of Shangguan Nantian.

General Su walked up to Shangguan Mufeng and respectfully gestured for him to enter.

"I wonder if Young Master Shangguan would be willing to have a match with me now? If not, I will not force you. If you are willing, let's go to the arena over there and begin."

Shangguan Mufeng heard what this general was saying. This general seemed to be a general of the National Protection Army. More importantly, this general seemed to be in charge of military operations and battles.

More importantly, this general seemed to be under the orders of Gan Luo, after all, he had heard of this before. When General Su saw that Shangguan Mufeng was not leaving, he was a little suspicious and couldn't help but provoke him.

"Does Young Master Shangguan fear me?"

The word "fear" didn't even cross Shangguan Mufeng's mind. He immediately flew forward, standing opposite General Su. For some reason, General Su sensed that this young man possessed formidable inner strength.

Shangguan Mufeng took out a folding fan, and General Su asked him if he wasn't going to take a sword. Shangguan Mufeng refused.

Gan Luo naturally learned of this matter. When he heard the news, he found it somewhat interesting, so he went to the palace and arrived here.

When Gan Luo arrived at this place and saw the duel between Shangguan Mufeng and General Su, he was somewhat surprised for a moment. It seemed that Gan Yanling really intended to make Shangguan Mufeng a military general.

As expected, going to the Minister of War this time was indeed useful. However, Gan Yanling probably didn't know that it was Gan Luo who asked the Minister of War to have this official do it.

At this moment, General Su saw Gan Luo's arrival and naturally greeted Gan Luo respectfully. Shangguan Mufeng was shocked at that moment, never expecting that the general in front of him would actually greet a woman.

More importantly, Shangguan Mufeng saw admiration in General Su's eyes. It seemed that General Su truly respected Gan Luo. Standing next to Gan Luo was Lin Fengmian, who was sizing up Shangguan Mufeng.

This person has quite good aptitude. If he were to become a military general, his future would be limitless. More importantly, he is also somewhat lacking in talent and knowledge, but his insightful abilities are relatively good. He can be described as having both literary and martial talents.

If such a person were to serve as an official in this court, he would certainly bring certain benefits to the court.

However, it all depends on Gan Yanling's vision. If Gan Yanling's vision is limited, it will definitely backfire. If Gan Yanling's vision is broad, then it will be different.

However, Gan Yanling is Gan Luo's younger brother, and according to Lin Fengmian's understanding, Gan Yanling seems to be too easily swayed by the words of officials.
