A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 576 The Most Bitter Love
He was still so sensible and considerate of the overall situation. He was so understanding that it made people feel distressed. He never caused trouble, never competed for favor or got jealous. He stayed away from her for fear that she would be embarrassed. His decisiveness made Yuan Wuyou hate him.

Yuan Wuyou suddenly found that his state of mind in front of Gao Changgong was very similar to Gao Yanzong's in front of him. They both drew a line between themselves and risked their lives, and they both had the same entanglement and resentment.

After thinking all this through, Yuan Wuyou's thoughts finally became clear, but he was still confused. Since his future with Gao Yanzong was the same as his future with Gao Changgong, was there still any future for him and Gao Yanzong?
If there is anyone in the world who can be relied on, Yuan Wuyou really dares to trust Gao Changgong on the battlefield. But at other times, she not only does not believe Gao Changgong, she dares not believe anyone else. But it is precisely this kind of Gao Changgong who is stubborn. Just like Gao Yanzong knows that she will not kill him, but it is difficult to reconcile. Yuan Wuyou also knows that Gao Changgong will stand by her unconditionally, but is unwilling to compromise.

Yuan Wuyou had no choice but to drag Gao Yanzong's long legs, hold him and lie on the ground. With trembling fingers, he stuffed the pill into Gao Yanzong's soft lips, and then with tears in his eyes, he untied the rope for him.

As several pieces of rope fell to the ground, Gao Yanzong, who had taken the detoxifying pill, recovered quickly and regained some strength. He poked the girl's delicate face with his trembling fingers and laughed hoarsely, "Go ahead, don't worry about me."

As he spoke, he struggled to support himself with his hands and tried to sit up.

Yuan Wuyou helped him sit up with his waist supported, but his face was cold, "Is it a self-torture trick? You also saw that I made the choice knowingly."

Faced with her distant and cold tone, Gao Yanzong, who was always very perceptive, felt extremely distressed and could only smile helplessly.

"I used to imagine that the most painful form of love is to love you in my heart but hurt you involuntarily; or to be so good to you in words and deeds that there is nothing wrong with it, but I don't love you in my heart, which is even more miserable?"

"Have you reached a conclusion now?"

"It's all very tragic. Bloody, knowing clearly that love is incomplete, love is hurtful, it's all very painful."

Yuan Wuyou was not impressed by this, and asked back with a frown,
"How dare you say that? Have I failed you? I gave up my long-lost fiancé for you, became a tyrant, and gambled my life to protect you in front of the emperors of both countries. But what about you? You investigated me behind my back and tried to control me with your dirty thoughts?"

Gao Yanzong wasn't sure what she was talking about, but he knew very well that he knew everything, so he just smiled sadly.

"I am not worthy of saying this. You had clearly given up on me, so why did you choose me in front of everyone just now?"

"Because I have a personal grudge against you. Since you have taken the blame for the State of Qi, I will only blame you. If I retaliate against you at this time, it will undoubtedly help the Xiao family to go to war with the State of Qi."

"Well, you did settle scores with me a lot." Gao Yanzong didn't have much strength in his body, but when he looked down, he saw the wound on his wrist. He suddenly lost his temper, "But I don't want to live with it anymore."

"Oh, in that case, I will pretend nothing happened from now on. If King Ande asks for help, I will do my best to help."

Her calm response and her carefree attitude made Gao Yanzong feel even more heartbroken.

"You still won't give up on Fourth Brother?"

He then asked himself and answered, "So you have to go find him. Don't let the person who loves you humbly and gives silently without asking for anything in return really not see any reward."

Yuan Wuyou nodded,
"Then when you're better, come over."

After saying that, he withdrew his hand from his lower back, stood up and turned to leave.

Just as I took a step forward, a calm voice suddenly came from behind me:
"I love you so much, Yuan Wuyou, I love you more than ever before."

"..." She didn't look back and took two more steps towards the exit, but heard the man behind her continue: "The more determined you are to your fourth brother, the happier I am." Yuan Wuyou knew that she should resolutely leave as he said, but when she heard that the man behind her was in a bad mood, she turned back.

"What do you want to say? After I leave, you won't commit suicide... or give up on yourself, right?"

Gao Yanzong smiled sadly, his brown peach eyes flashing with determined tears.
"If I dared to commit suicide, I would have died more than ten years ago. Do you know how happy I am when you look back?"

"What do you want to say? Can you stand up? Gao Changgong is outside alone and I am really worried about him. Can I help you out?"

Yuan Wuyou walked back to him, squatted down, lifted up his hand to check, and found that even his slender arms were shaking.

The man pulled the corners of his trembling mouth, "Wait... I'm sorry, fourth brother. If I delay your conversation for a few more seconds, the only thing I can move is my mouth. Even my teeth are numb from the pain..."

She has always adhered to the principle of doing everything to the utmost and leaving no regrets. Seeing Gao Yanzong half-dead, she felt uneasy and nodded.

"You say it and I listen."

Gao Yanzong breathed a sigh of relief, raised his head, looked at her, and said slowly and steadily: "I lied to you and cheated you. These actions are real and cannot be quibbled. But my love for you is true. I have been despicable in confirming whether you love me again and again, but now I am sure..."

"Oh? How do I love you? Don't take yourself too seriously."

"I lied to you before, thinking you were young and innocent and I seduced you. After that, you treated me well and wanted to give me a name, and I thought you were responsible for me... But later I found out that it was not the case. I cheated you so much and made you bear more blame than you should, but you clearly drew a line between us and took the blame for me. Even though you said you didn't love me, you still cared about me."

After hearing this, Yuan Wuyou remained calm and composed:
"You think too much. I am just too sympathetic."

Gao Yanzong suddenly pinched her strong fingers with his trembling long fingertips, and said in a trembling low voice:

"Even if you don't love me, I love you from the bottom of my heart. When I think of you, I feel so happy and warm in my heart. I don't want anything else but you as my spiritual support."

"Me? I have nothing and I don't deserve it."

"What touched me the most was that you actually remembered what I said unintentionally last night. I didn't hold out hope that you could find me. I bit my tongue because I was so angry. When you pushed open the door of the shrine and found me, I was so excited that I wanted to die in front of you..."

When Yuan Wuyou heard the man's low and soft voice, and then began to make trouble, he immediately felt terrified.

"Don't talk nonsense. Why do you always talk about death when you can still live..."

"I was reluctant to die. At that time, I thought that no matter what you asked me to do, I would agree to go with you without hesitation, reconcile with you, and have a baby with you."

At this moment, Gao Yanzong was deeply in love with Miss Huaxu.

He even shamefully wanted to reward her with his body to thank her, but he was also humbly afraid that she would not like him anymore. He couldn't help but think about what kind of man she liked in bed? The kind who wanted to resist but also wanted to? But if he didn't take the initiative, she would probably not force herself on him. Would she still like him? Or would she like the kind of man like Fourth Brother who had strong muscles, broad shoulders and long legs, and was muscular and thin?
He began to look forward to his next time with her.
