A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 588: Parental Love 588

On his daughter's birthday that year, even the Eastern Wei, which had been hostile to him for decades, sent people to congratulate him. It seemed that everything was heading towards peace in the world. However, unexpectedly, his five-year-old daughter fell in love with Gao Cheng's son and insisted on forcing him to stay as her child husband...

At that moment, Dugu Ruyuan seemed to see the Han girl and himself back then.

But when he came to his senses, he thought he was still the world-famous Dugu Lang, the original husband of the regent princess of the Northern Wei Dynasty. But in the eyes of the world, one of them was the abdicated and powerless female emperor of the Han Dynasty, and the other was a powerful Xianbei official who was more powerful than his master.

Although the era of Tianmu Khan has quietly faded, there are still many people who, under the pretext of remembering the title of the empress, want to emulate her in leading the six prefectures in an uprising and in clearing out the corrupt officials and serving the emperor.

Therefore, when Yuwen Heita died, and the Empress Dowager and Lord Yuan Baoyue of Suxing Mansion returned to Huaxu, the Yuwen family tore their relationship apart to overthrow the Yuan family's rule, and forced the reigning Emperor Yuan Qin to write an edict of abdication. Then many people came to Dugu Mansion to ask him to support the Wei Dynasty. Dugu Ruyuan didn't know whether to refuse or support, so he had to send them away ambiguously.

However, it still aroused the murderous intention of the regent of the Yuwen family.

After all, Dugu Ruyuan was forced to divorce.

So when Yuwen Hu visited his home late at night in the name of the Empress Dowager, taking out the Empress's Gan Jiang sword and saying that the Empress did not want to see him, he conveyed the Empress's will, saying that as long as he was alive, the Crown Princess's father's family would be feared, and the court officials would not let the little princess grow up safely, so he was given poisoned wine to commit suicide.

Dugu believed her Ganjiang sword as he wished, and did not choose to wait for the second divorce letter, but believed that she wanted him to die. He was willing to use his life to pave the way for his daughter and the next Yuan Mingjing.

Dugu Ruyuan did not see his daughter before he died, so he only wrote a suicide letter. There were not many words in the letter, just saying that she was a child born in love, she had a pair of parents who loved each other the most, but for the sake of the country and the people of the world, she had to give up her love and devote herself to defending the country and stabilizing the government.

He hoped that one day his daughter would forgive him for this death.

Wuyouer has a mother who loves her the most in the world, and a father who is the most cowardly but never spoils the fun at critical moments. But in the end, this incompetent father could not accompany her to grow up, but only when he died, her mother could raise her into a wise ruler without any scruples.

The entire suicide letter was written entirely to his daughter. Even when he mentioned his former beloved wife, he only asked his daughter to convey a message: After his death, he only wished to turn into the green mountains in the northern frontier, or become a pass on the Great Wall, so that he could protect his wife Khan for the last time.

That night, Dugu sat behind his favorite general's desk in his home as he wished, looking at the young powerful official who brought him poisoned wine. In a trance, he seemed to see Yuwen Heita, his fellow villager who grew up with him and fought alongside him, on the face of the young man.

It was like reincarnation, and people like him seemed to have the same destined death. Ever since he set foot in the Central Plains and joined the dispute over the division of territory, his life had never been in his hands. Until this moment, the shackles that had weighed on him for his entire life, love and hate, loyalty and betrayal, finally disappeared.

From then on, all the past grudges were let go and I was free.

As he drank a cup of poisoned wine, Dugu Ruyuan's old body clearly felt the pain of his flesh and blood being destroyed and burned.

His heart was extremely relaxed and peaceful.

At the last moment of his life, Dugu Ruyuan even figured out why Zigui's mother died in the Northern Wei Dynasty. Unfortunately, Zigui's mother died in front of Yuan Mingjing, but she was revived because of her.

Only by dying can he save his daughter.

Unfortunately, he was unable to give his daughter his letter, his seal, and the Moye sword that was lost in southern Xinjiang.

Until his death, he had never been truly happy to go to Gaxian Cave to worship his ancestors as her first husband.

——When Yuan Wuyou experienced these old dreams of the ancestors like a ghost, when she saw this, she had already felt the same heartache.

She was quite confused at first. It was supposed to be an illusion recreated from the queen mother's memory, but why was it from her father's perspective?
After watching her parents' love, Yuan Wuyou changed sides, and she realized how helpless her father was and how difficult his situation was. Her mother was more like a heartless tyrant.

Yuan Wuyou lost her father at a young age. In her memory, her father was a romantic and gentle man. After divorcing the empress, he married several wives, but they were all his wives. He had eight daughters and eight sons, and she was the youngest daughter of the Dugu Mansion. Perhaps it was because she was the only one born by Dugu Ruyuan with the blood of Lu Shu. After all, she was his flesh and blood, so she was closer to her father who had little affection for his family. But everyone said that her father only cared for her because of his responsibility to train the crown prince.

She had always thought that her parents had no love for each other, and that they just performed their duties as rulers and subjects, and gave birth to her to pass on their inheritance. It was not until now that Yuan Yuan Wuyou realized that this was not the case, and that the two of them really loved each other.

Yuan Wuyou suddenly felt ashamed. She had wondered why her mother gave birth to her with her father when there were obviously several male concubines in her mother's harem who had no children and were devoted to her.
It turns out that the person who is most worthy of the Queen Mother's trust in this world is Dugu Xin. No wonder the Queen Mother's puppet cares so much about whether a man is trustworthy, it turns out that his father is such a person.

Love is most ridiculous in troubled times, but even if everyone laughs at Dugu Ruyuan's infatuation, Yuan Mingjing has no right to laugh.

At the end of the Northern Wei Dynasty, due to the rebellion of the Five Barbarians, barbarians from all directions took the opportunity to invade, and the Han people were in a difficult situation, which was far worse than at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

And on this Chinese land filled with smoke and gunpowder, unexpectedly, his parents, a pair of tragic lovers, appeared.

But it seems that there is only one person who has suffered all the pain in love from beginning to end.

He is the most beautiful woman in the north who is good at riding and shooting. He is the white moonlight that she fell in love with at first sight. The handsome man in the north who has just begun to fall in love is sincere and pure in love. Once he has chosen a person, he will follow her through life and death. When she was defeated, he used the power of the whole family to help her make a comeback and save the king. Dugu Ruyuan is the original wife, the military strategist who plans and plans, the brave god of war, and the loyal minister who keeps his promise and follows his ex-wife even after she divorces him.

Others were loyal subjects to the emperor, but Dugu Ruyuan was loyal to his wife, and he became pregnant with a daughter for her, and even in the end... he committed suicide to protect his daughter and the kingdom and imperial power of their Yuan family.

Yuan Wuyou originally thought that the love between him and Gao Changgong was passionate enough and worthy of being talked about by others, but he never expected that the love between his mother and father was the most beautiful and greatest.

It's just a bit hard, and it's a pity.

Especially the "ancestor Gaxian" that her father was still thinking about before he died. He was never able to meet his parents as a married couple throughout his life. Even she felt sad when she heard about it.

At the same time, he also realized that his parents had both passed away, and when he and Gao Changgong got married, they would not be able to see their parents unless Li Mingjian was put first.

She secretly vowed that if she was capable enough, she would make Gao Changgong her queen, instead of letting anyone who was capable take over the position like Yuwen Huaibi did. Yuan Wuyou felt that apart from Gao Changgong, no one else in the world was worthy of her full trust and love.

Of course, what Yuan Wuyou wanted to do most at the moment was to return to Chang'an to rise up and take revenge! Damn the Yuwen family! These wolf dogs dared to trick her father into killing him in the name of her mother!

She was not at home on the night her father was killed, so she really thought that her father was forced to death by the Yuwen family because his achievements were too great and he was implicated by Zhao Gui who was plotting a rebellion. Later, the more she thought about it, the more absurd it seemed. Zhao Gui was not plotting a rebellion. If he succeeded, he would have been a great king who saved the emperor and cleared the court of evil!

And my father did not die voluntarily. Instead, he was forced to death by those bastards of the Yuwen family who falsely conveyed the emperor's order and killed people with the Gan Jiang sword!
As expected, whoever gave birth to the child will feel sorry for it, and whoever's belly it came from will feel sorry for it. Yuan Wuyou felt that his mother was just like most men in history. She felt that if she had too many men, she wouldn't care, and she wouldn't feel sorry for too many children.

Her mother hadn't avenged her father's murder and her husband's seizure, so she had to avenge her father! Yuan Wuyou also realized that faking the emperor's order could not only change the country, but also kill the person you love the most in your name.

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, my dears~ Here is something sweet for everyone!!

PS: Don't worry, the story of the empress divorcing her first wife to consolidate her power and forcing her first husband to death is a lie, and there is no such story in history. But Yuan Baoju forcing his first wife to divorce, making room for another woman as the empress, and forcing her first wife to death is a true story in history.

So, please put your hatred for the mother queen on the male emperor in history. This is a pure gender-swapped version~
