Would he be lenient with these traitors who robbed the national power because of his own personal feelings? According to Shen Yi's understanding of him, Gu Yun definitely would not.

However, foreign enemies resembled preying tigers, half of the country had not been taken back. If Li Feng died, would Gu Yun fight against Yang Wang to return the power to the eight-year-old prince?

Shen Yi found that he dared not guarantee this.

... But no matter how Gu Yun chose, in this way, regardless of the kindness of father and son, the righteousness of friendships, or the selfish feelings of romance difficult to express to outsiders, it would all probably come to an end.

Shen Yi's mind was turning fast... No, he could think of this, how could Yan Wang not? As long as he really respected Gu Yun, Yan Wang would never...

Master Shen cut in and said, "How about this, write a letter, think of a reasonable excuse, then go to the Lu family personally to delay this marriage."

Shen Yi was shocked, "Rejecting is one thing, why delay? And if it is not to reject, why must I go there personally?"

Master Shen took a deep look at him, hummed, then ignored him all together.

A moment later, Shen Yi's astonished look faded slightly, and his face appeared shocked. His father's intention was for him to please both sides and not offend the Lu family at this key moment!

Shen Yi couldn't help raising his voice: "Dad, I have never done such a two-faced thing to anyone except the enemy in the border battlefield. If I want to marry someone, I will go out and find someone to arrange a dowry. If I don't want to, I will reject them. I cannot put up a false pretense like this. What kind of person would I be then? Do you really think a lowly bunch can take down Yan Wang?"

Master Shen stopped and turned his back to Shen Yi. "Since Yan Wang entered the Grand Council, he first solved the shortage of the National Treasury, then escorted the military supplies, pushed Black Iron Camp into the old nest of the Western Regions with one hand, stabilizing four sides. He has had many achievements, but do you know what is in his mind?"

Shen Yi angrily said, "Yan Wang has never formed a party to plot private affairs and harbored personal ambitions. He only wants to return peace to the world then be together…then retire from the court. He is still in his youth, is it easy to be this dedicated? Yet behind him still exists groups of presumptive old fools like you. You are simply...absolutely unreasonable!"

"Did I step on your tail?" Master Shen sneered, "With what Yan Wang has achieved until this day, does he still need to form a party? Loads of people are willing to follow him! Do you know what is called 'three men make a tiger'?
