A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 731 White Deer Falling from the Sky

Chapter 731 White Deer Falling from the Sky
Three years ago, at the hunting ground outside the Huaxu Imperial City, the crown princess, who had reached the age of marriage, was leading people to hunt wild deer.

She was tall, and as she sat upright on her horse with her back straight and longbow in her arms, she already had the majesty and dignity of a king.

But there was still a long braid hanging behind her head, revealing that she was still young.

She saw a wild deer in front of her. When she shot the prey and ran forward, she found that there was only a gray donkey in its place.

The donkey was eating grass preferentially, with no wounds or arrows on its body.

At this moment, a shout suddenly came from the sky!
When the crown princess looked up, she saw a young man in strange clothes falling from the sky and about to fall in front of her!

Yuan Wuyou stretched out his arms to catch it, but was hit by the almost naked body of the boy.

She couldn't lift her arm at once, her bones seemed to be broken. But when she looked up, she saw that the arrow she had shot at the white deer was still stuck in the boy's broad white shoulder, and a line of blood was flowing out.

That is the crown prince's special golden arrow.

The boy had light purple bangs on his head, short hair that didn't reach his ears, and he was wearing very bold clothes -

He was almost naked, but he had tied a purple silk ribbon around his waist, which was fastened with a large curved pin and two red ropes with Pisces jade pendants hanging on them to hold it down, so that even this last piece of fig leaf would not be blown away by the wind.

Upon seeing this, the female crown princess felt ashamed for not only shooting the man but also destroying his clothes. She hurriedly took off her cloak to cover the man, despite the severe pain in her arms, and took him back to the palace for treatment.

She didn't dare to peek at the young man's boundless beauty the whole time. She only remembered that there always seemed to be a pair of Pisces jade pendants hanging by red strings in front of her eyes.

Sitting in the carriage on the return journey, the young man was very excited all the way. Not only did he not blame the female archer for shooting him, he also kept talking to her.

Although he was speaking a foreign language at first and Yuan Wuyou didn't understand him, after he realized there was a language barrier, he quickly learned to speak Chinese with her accent.

She asked him why he appeared in the hunting ground naked?
He asked, "What time is it now?"

"Evening at twilight hour."

"I mean, what year is it now? Is it 567 AD?"

"The forty-seventh year of Emperor Huaxu Wu."

The young man shrugged helplessly.
"I haven't heard of it. Did the Sui Dynasty replace the Northern Zhou Dynasty? Did the Northern and Southern Dynasties unify?" He paused, then suddenly stared at her with his eyes as clear as purple gemstones and asked,

"Have you heard of the orphan of the Western Wei Dynasty, Yuan Jixiao?"

The female crown prince said calmly: "It is me, what's wrong?"

Upon hearing this answer, the boy raised his eyes, which instantly lit up, and he curled his lips into a smile.

"So you are the young lord? Your Majesty, I am glad to see you at last."

"..."

When Yuan Wuyou first saw him, he felt particularly pity for this half-naked young man who fell from the sky, and also found him curious.

She asked him his name, and he only answered: "Code name Feng, the Feng of Huaxu." As the descendant of Huaxu's Feng family, Yuan Wuyou naturally treated him as a member of her own family. However, she felt that this was not a human name, and it seemed like he was offending his ancestors and pretending to be senior.

It happened that at that moment there were mountains outside the car window, and the snow-capped Kunlun Mountain could be vaguely seen in the distance, so Yuan Wuyou named him "Shan Wuling".

The boy looked at the three big words she wrote on the paper, puzzled:
"You pronounced the word '楞' in '楞角', but how did you write '陵'? Don't bully me because I'm not good at linguistics..."

She patiently explained to him, "It comes from the Han Dynasty Yuefu poem Shang Xie. The mountains are gone, the rivers are dry, the winter thunders, the summer snows, the heaven and earth merge, and then I dare to break up with you."

Hearing this, the young man looked at her with a smile and said, "My young master likes to name people after love poems? Are you teasing me?"

She was stunned by the question and could only say that this was the first poem she memorized when she was an elementary school student and she didn't think much about it just now.

But this unexpected first meeting, the giving of names and the chatting with each other, were enough to make Yuan Wuyou feel protective of this young man who claimed that he had no family and nowhere to go.

She wanted to take him directly into the palace, but she happened to meet the Northern Zhou emperor's carriage entering the city.

Taking this opportunity, Shan Wuling also met the current emperor of Northern Zhou, Yuwen Huaibi. However, he found that this person seemed to be slightly different from the Emperor Wu of the Northern Dynasty in the historical books he was familiar with.
On that day of that year, the Northern Zhou Emperor Yuwen Huaibi came to celebrate the birthday of Crown Princess Huaxu, but he did not expect that she was accompanied by a scantily clad young man from a foreign race.

The young emperor of the allied country was dignified and solemn on the surface, but he secretly inquired about the life experience of the purple-eyed boy. After learning that his origins were unknown and that he was named "Shan Wuling" by the crown princess, he became extremely jealous and asked her to send him away.

Otherwise, her mother would arrest him before he even entered the palace. Yuan Wuyou thought of the past ten years of strict education and restraint, and wanted to resist for this boy who had come from nowhere.

So that day, Yuan Wuyou let the purple-eyed young man cut off her long braid in the palace outside the palace. She only thought that from now on, she would stand on her own and no longer be a submissive citizen under the tyrannical rule of her mother.

Shan Wuling asked for her one-foot-long braid that she had kept for fifteen years and tied it around his glowing crystal bracelet.

In order to show his courtesy, he taught Yuan Wuyou to embed a blade mechanism in the ring to pop out the ring knife.

Wan Yuwuyu, who was her personal guard at the time, stood beside her from beginning to end. After seeing the young man hollow out her crown prince ring and inlay a ring blade and mechanism inside, he took her ring curiously and wanted to study how the blade was embedded.

But the young man refused to teach him, an "outsider", and only flattered the Crown Princess. Yuan Wuyou couldn't bear to see his guards disappointed, so he took off his crown prince ring and studied it with Wan Yuwuyu.

From the moment Codename Feng fell from the sky, Yuan Wuyou felt that he was not an ordinary person.

Even after her mother found out that she had secretly kept a mistress outside the palace and had Shan Wuling thrown into the prison, Yuan Wuyou did not hesitate to open the prison door in the name of the crown prince and get him out in front of her former husband, now the emperor of Northern Zhou.

From the very beginning, she was attracted by his strangeness.

Unfortunately, it was not until he stabbed the knife into her temple and pulled out the "brain thread" that this mysterious immortal man from heaven revealed his origins.

Yuan Wuyou had a splitting headache, but the things that had dealt her a heavy blow three years ago were obviously more than that.

Li Mingjian was still in her memory. It turned out that she had seen him before, and they had met more than once...

Also three years ago, Yuan Wuyou's half brother, who had escaped from the mountains with great difficulty, was also raised with her in Xishu.

Li Mingjian had also lived in the imperial city and slept on the same couch with her in the East Palace. He had also ridden on the cranes of Baiheyin, visited the Yaotai at the foot of Kunlun, and worshipped the spirit on the tablet of the Queen Mother of the West.
