Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable-Chapter 1203 - 1113: Female Chancellor 51

Although the weather is very hot now, it is quite cool in the mountains, especially in the morning when there is some chill.

Yin Shuangshuang woke up very early and felt a bit cold at this moment, so she put on a cloak.

Accompanying her was Wei Yingnan, who was dressed lightly, making Yin Shuangshuang feel somewhat envious.

When one is healthy, one does not feel it, but after becoming unhealthy, one realizes that those small matters that could be done when healthy become entirely impossible when weak.

After lightly coughing twice, Yin Shuangshuang poured the brewed tea into a cup and looked up at the middle-aged man who, under Yan Yi’s guidance, walked before her with an extraordinary demeanor.

The man’s temples were already frosted white, and his brow was deeply furrowed, indicating he often frowned; his face was cold and solemn, giving a feeling of being unapproachable, yet he was tall and walked with a dragon’s gait and tiger’s stride.

His sharp eyes fell upon Yin Shuangshuang, surveying her thoroughly, filled with inquiry.

Yin Shuangshuang stood up, greeted him with a smile, and said, "Thank you, Great General An, for coming to see me. Please sit down and have a cup of tea."

This man was indeed Great General An, who commanded one-third of the troops in the current world.

Great General An had the habit of climbing mountains on the first and fifteenth day, a fact Yin Shuangshuang learned from Mr. Nameless.

Today, Yin Shuangshuang sought out Great General An not only to assist in fine-tuning the Second Prince’s plan but primarily because Great General An was a friend of Mr. Nameless.

Previously, Mr. Nameless often praised Great General An in her presence, and she wanted to help Great General An out of regard for Mr. Nameless.

To gain the trust of Great General An more easily, Yin Shuangshuang also brought Wei Yingnan along, who had known Great General An since she was a child.

Since Great General An and Mr. Nameless were friends, Wei Yingnan ought to have some impression of him.

Great General An and Mr. Nameless were friends despite their age gap, so Wei Yingnan should address Great General An as uncle.

Upon seeing Great General An, Wei Yingnan immediately stood and greeted him.

"Uncle An, do you remember me? I am Wei Yingnan. After so many years, you are still as exceptional as ever."

Great General An was initially stunned by Wei Yingnan’s greeting, then he carefully looked at her twice. Despite her changes since childhood, he soon recognized Wei Yingnan.

His once stern face softened, "So it’s Yingnan. It’s been so many years, and you’ve grown from a little girl into a beautiful young lady. How is your grandfather? Is he well these years?"

"My grandfather is doing great. Over the years, we have traveled all over Jiangnan and seen beautiful scenery, feeling freer than at court. Uncle An need not worry about my grandfather."

The conversation between Wei Yingnan and Great General An continued, with Great General An inquiring about Mr. Nameless, to which Wei Yingnan responded.

Yin Shuangshuang was in no hurry, pouring tea for both while sipping her own. Her body was extremely sensitive to cold; she avoided chilled water all year round.

Yin Shuangshuang’s calm demeanor left Great General An puzzled, as he deliberately spoke with Wei Yingnan, ignoring Yin Shuangshuang.

Since Yin Shuangshuang entered the Capital City, she kept a low profile, and Great General An had no knowledge of her. Yet, from observing Yan Yi and others standing behind her, he realized this young lady was anything but ordinary.

Great General An had fought through countless perils, recognizing the battlefield aura among Yan Yi and others that couldn’t be hidden from him.

Despite her frail appearance, Yin Shuangshuang skillfully commanded this ferocious group, indicating she wasn’t an ordinary girl.

The obedient demeanor of Yan Yi and others standing behind her wasn’t a mere act.

This was when Wei Yingnan’s role became apparent. While chatting, Great General An subtly guided Wei Yingnan to reveal information, including the friendship between Mr. Nameless and Yin Shuangshuang.

Yin Shuangshuang knew Great General An was gathering information; her aim was to let him learn about her from Wei Yingnan, facilitating trust-building.

Indeed, knowing her close relationship with Mr. Nameless eased Great General An’s wariness.

"Why has Miss Yin gone through so much just to see me? What exactly is your purpose? Please be frank."

Great General An’s mountain-climbing hobby was a secret, known only to friends and family, crucial during these perilous times. His choice of this secluded site further indicated forethought.

Yin Shuangshuang’s visit to this specific spot pointed to premeditated intentions to engage him.

Her knowledge of this secret location suggested Mr. Nameless’s disclosure, reassuring Great General An of her trustworthy nature.

Unsure of her hidden agenda, Great General An opted for candid inquiry.

"Great General An has faced hard times; you hold military power but lack the Emperor’s trust, trapped with a hot potato, neither able to discard nor retain it. Your enemies grow intolerant, not to mention the Emperor’s sons, all vying for power. Great General An, your days have undoubtedly been difficult."

"The pressing issue is that the Emperor’s sons have grown eager for the throne, first needing control of the army. General An, your situation is undoubtedly more challenging."

"I’ve come to help you escape your predicament without suspecting my motives."

Great General An looked at her impassively, indifferent to her words; his quandary wasn’t easily solved.

After years without a viable escape plan, how could he believe a sudden visitor would offer a solution?

Sadly, his loyalty to the Emperor led him here, regretting only that his family suffered for it.

"Your skepticism is understandable, Great General An. Why not hear my plan? If you find it unfeasible, simply disregard what I’ve said today."
