A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 595: Black Bird Chasing the Moon
Hearing this, Gao Yanzong secretly laughed in his heart. He was already angry enough when he was blocked by this kid as soon as he went out, but what was even more annoying was that she openly favored this kid as soon as she came out.

It was obviously he who was almost killed, but the person next to him chose to be his unexpected and unconfirmed blood relative and regarded him as an enemy.

While they were talking, the one-armed girl helped the young man in black up and stood opposite him.

Gao Yanzong looked at her coldly, "If he hadn't blocked my way, who would have lowered themselves to get involved with him? It would have been a complete loss of manners and decency."

As he spoke, the corners of his eyes raised even higher in disdain, and he glanced sideways at Li Mingjian who was slowly being helped to stand up by the girl.

The young man in black pressed down his sister's hand, stood in front of the girl, and looked at the man who was half a head taller than him.

King Ande of the Great Qi Kingdom disagreed. His peach blossom eyes turned red at the moment, and he was sharp and ruthless. "Get out of the way. Not to mention you, even if the Emperor of Zhou Kingdom comes, he has no excuse to stop me."

Li Mingjian was neither humble nor arrogant, with an arrogant look in his eyes, "You can't leave. If it weren't for you, my sister wouldn't be in this situation today."

The next moment, the man flipped his slender white fingers, and Gao Yanzong drew his sword again and pressed it against the boy's chest.

Without even raising his eyes, he said arrogantly, "Don't even think about stopping me, your sister."

At this moment, Yuan Wuyou suddenly realized something. She used to think that her family with Gao Changgong would not break up without Gao Yanzong. But now she found out that Gao Yanzong had the final say on whether the family would break up or not.

If Gao Yanzong didn't cause trouble, he would just bring his brother and his wife together, and the whole family would be happy. But if he didn't want to live a good life, his breathing would be like a thorn, and any dog ​​passing by would be kicked by him. Yuan Wuyou, who was in dire straits, was naturally Gao Yanzong's first target.

Gao Changgong rushed out to smooth things over, grabbed his brother's hand and bent his sword downwards!

"Don't brandish swords or it might hurt the harmony!" Then he raised his head and looked at the young man in black in front of him with sincere and apologetic eyes.

"I guess Mr. Li's appearance here is not just to embarrass my brother, right?"

Lanling Wang, who has always been straightforward in character, is actually wise and foolish, and has never made mistakes in dealing with people. Now, he did not mention the hostility between the two countries, nor did he mention the barriers of status. He only politely called him "Young Master" and protected him as "my younger brother". It can be said that he was obviously protecting his own shortcomings and diverting the trouble away without any leakage.

Gao Changgong's shallow thoughts were naturally seen through by Li Mingjian at a glance. If Li Mingjian still insisted on targeting his fifth brother, he would have to give a reason. These reasons might not be able to be made public, and his sister might not allow him to say it.

Since Lanling Wang is avoiding the important issues, he will start the dispute. Li Ming suddenly curled his lips and snorted, "I have something important to discuss with Fengling Wang."

As he said this, he turned around and pointed at a group of black-clad palace soldiers wearing armor behind him, "These are the Tiger Guards from the Sixth Guard of Lord Zhou. They have been ordered to bring back Prince Fengling."

When they heard that Zhou Guolai was coming to welcome back King Fengling, the two brothers looked at each other in bewilderment. What else could they say?
The ghost-faced man held the spear upside down, clasped his fists and bowed to the black-clothed boy, actively showing a friendly attitude:
"Then why don't we both take a step back? We brothers won't disturb you two from reminiscing about the past. Please, Master Li, make way."

Li Mingjian glanced at the girl beside him, pursed his red lips, and reluctantly retreated to his sister's side.

“Thank you!” The Ghost-faced General then stopped bowing, held his spear upside down, and took the lead to walk forward.

When passing by Yuan Wuyou, the ghost-faced man suddenly raised his dark phoenix eyes, his long eyelashes fluttering, and he playfully winked at her. Yuan Wuyou felt like she was electrocuted, and her heart felt numb. If it was used on others, it would definitely be a tease, but on Gao Changgong... it was even more teasing. Who did he learn this from?

Gao Changgong's playfulness was short-lived, and he quickly regained his sharp look. His high ponytail made him look quite tall, and his body in the Ming Guang armor showed his broad shoulders and narrow waist, and his long legs made him look very heroic.

When he walked in front of Li Mingjian, he nodded to the young man again. But because of the height difference, even when he lowered his eyes to look at him, Li Mingjian looked at him with contempt.

Gao Yanzong, on the other hand, looked up, and didn't even glance at Yuan Wuyou when he passed by her. As they passed by, she suddenly smelled a faint scent of camellia, which filled the humid air.

She looked up at his back in astonishment, only to see him snorting at Li Mingjian, with the whites of his eyes almost rolling up to the sky.

King Ande was as unruly as ever, openly showing contempt and disdain.

Suddenly there was a loud thunder, exploding above everyone's head!

Yuan Wuyou's ears were buzzing from the explosion. Before she could recover, a tear fell on her face. She raised her head and saw raindrops falling from the sky and hitting her thick eyelashes.

She suddenly heard the sound of heavy drizzle beside her ears.

Along with the crisp cries of magpies, a colorful black shadow flew up from the branch of the maple tree next to them, circled above the two towering figures like mountains, and cut through the solemn and heroic Gao brothers in red shirts and golden armor like a bottomless crack, then bypassed the two of them and rushed into the dark clouds, never to be seen again.

The old crow is a very spiritual bird. It often appears as a dark shadow in a dark corner under the moonlight at night, which makes people tremble with fear and is a bad omen. The most common thing people see is its colorful black, which is called "black bird chasing the moon". Under the sun, when its feathers are penetrated by light, they will appear colorful and transparent white, returning to the symbol of auspiciousness.

Just like the saying goes, he who keeps company with vermilion becomes red, and he who keeps company with ink becomes black.

Yuan Wuyou suddenly discovered that the Gao brothers were like mountains, eternally stable, but because their hands and feet were firmly rooted in the thick soil, they could only stay where they were, watching the sun rise and the moon set, their eyes following and gazing at the glory, but their eyes would never intersect.

Mountains and rivers meet, but the sun and the moon will never fall to the earth. The black bird escaped from the golden crow in the sun, flew over the mountains, and swept across the earth, bringing endless life to the world.

The sun, the black bird, this is the mission given to Yuan Wuyou by his ancestors. He lives to chase the sun, and he dies to have successors.

In Qi, she was Zheng Xuannu, and only in Qi, she wanted to be Gao Changgong's auspicious black bird, rather than the rising sun in Chang'an. But if you put yourself in his shoes, wasn't she also clinging to the same mission as Gao Changgong?

However, the love between Yuan Wuyou and Gao Changgong is more like two rigid and dogmatic people trapped in two adjacent cells, holding hands and exchanging glances through the wooden bar in the middle. The most outrageous behavior is just holding hands, even if there is physical intimacy...

But this was the most outrageous resistance they could offer to each other.

Unlike her and Gao Yanzong, who kissed each other until their lips were bruised, her kiss was not as provocative and affectionate as Gao Changgong's playful blink of an eye.

Gao Changgong is a pure old-fashioned person, but Yuan Wuyou is not. She can be a virtuous and wise ruler, or a crazy and tyrant. In the Yuan family, there is no female emperor who sticks to the rules and is honest and dutiful!

The rain was not heavy, but the drizzle still blocked the receding figures of the Gao brothers and blurred Yuan Wuyou's sight.
