A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 739: The Later Liang Envoy

Yuan Wuyou never returned to Xi'eguanyi.

She was not afraid of Yuwen Huaibi. After all, she had recovered her strength now. Apart from being sleepy, she was not afraid of anything else. She was not afraid that Yuwen Huaibi, that virgin boy, could do anything to her.

But she wanted to strike while the iron was hot and return to the battlefield.

So she stole Yi Fuya's horse, determined her direction by the bright morning star, and ran alone towards the east.

Xi'e County was about forty miles away from Bowang County, and it only took one hour to get there by horseback. Thanks to Yi Fuya's Xiliang horse, which was a rare wind-chasing horse, her journey was accelerated.

The night is almost over.

Yuan Wuyou wanted to take a shortcut, so he took the flat official road from Xi'e City to Bowang City.

Passing by a deserted village post station, she originally didn't intend to stop, but someone came out from inside, and then a group of people came out in a mighty force and blocked the road.

She slowed down her horse and approached slowly. Yuwen Xiaobo, who was blocking the way, spoke first:
"I have been waiting for Your Highness for a long time!"

At the same time, next to him was the Xianbei emperor with a jade face and yellow shirt, and behind him stood two rows of guards wearing black clothes and covering their faces.

Yuan Wuyou laughed out of anger, and was about to scold Yuwen Huaibi for what he was doing? But when he looked closely, he found a young man in a purple robe and short hair standing next to Yuwen Huaibi.

The boy bowed and clasped his fists, shaking the Pisces jade pendant on his waist, and spoke first: "Hua Xu's dream shines into reality, the fate of the Southern Liang Dynasty, the ending of the Northern Dynasty, welcome to City Z - Da Zhou."

She was so angry that she immediately jumped off her horse, pointed at the young man next to the Xianbei man, and asked harshly:
"Who is he? Yuwen Huaibi, let me ask you! Who is he? What is his relationship with you?"

Shan Wuling scratched his head shyly, "Hey, see you again, little fairy."

The queen's three fatal questions were like the first wife coming to catch an adulterer. Yuwen Xiaobo, who was standing next to her, was stunned. He stared at his own emperor with wide eyes.
"No? Your Majesty, you two..."

The jade-faced man did not hesitate for a moment. He took a step forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with her, then glanced at the purple-robed youth.

"He is an envoy from the Later Liang Dynasty, and he came to offer advice on how to quell the Tangut and Bailang rebellion. How come you recognize him?"

"Why, you don't recognize me? Three years ago in Huaxu... but you reported it to my mother, saying that I had a mistress outside and sent him to the prison!"

After she mentioned it, Yuwen Huaibi finally remembered it. His eyes suddenly turned sinister and he turned around and glared at Shan Wuling.

Shan Wuling quickly waved his hand to refute, and said with a playful smile:
"Your Majesty Tianhe, please don't misunderstand me. The rumors about us in the past were all misunderstandings. How dare I compete with you for the position of the Queen of Huaxu? You are the one who is born to be the Queen's first wife!"

These words were repeated to the end. After hearing them, Yuwen Huaibi narrowed his eyes and snorted, "Let bygones be bygones. This time, let's see if you can make up for your sins and win back the reputation for Houliang."

Seeing that this kid was avoiding the important issue and trying to get away with it by patting the dog emperor's horse, Yuan Wuyou was worried about leaving him with Yuwen Huaibi.

Yuwen Huaibi certainly didn't know that he was a very different, cruel and brutal person behind the scenes, but she knew it best!
Yuan Wuyou immediately frowned and glared, and turned to ask the Xianbei Emperor who was a head taller than her:

"Yuwen Huaibi, are you crazy? You bring all kinds of monsters into your home? Do you know his origins? Three years ago, he fell from the sky in front of me, rammed your carriage on the long street, and tried to kill me in the Huaxu Palace. Aren't you afraid of him--"

When she said this, the Xianbei man with a thin white jade mask on his face suddenly opened his long eyelashes, and his gray-blue phoenix eyes became fierce.

"What did you say?"

"I said he ran into your carriage in the street..."

"That's not it."

Yuwen Huaibi suddenly twisted his neck, turned around and glared at Shan Wuling with his sinister and cold eyes.

"You actually want to kill her?"

As soon as Shan Wuling heard that he had captured the key words, he knew something was wrong. "Well, Your Majesty, please listen to my explanation--"

Yuwen Huaibi immediately interrupted the spell and ordered in a deep voice:

"——Come here! Capture this assassin and execute him on the spot."

——“Here!”

Hearing the sound, two guards covered in black armor came out.

Before Yuwen Huaibi finished speaking, Shan Wuling wailed and shouted, "Hey, stop it! Your Majesty, you are acting like a tyrant!"

The two imperial guards were captured by Shan Wuling on the spot, and their arms were tied behind their backs.

Shan Wuling wanted to struggle, but felt that his two fists were no match for four hands. He looked up and saw the dusty female ruler standing next to the Xianbei emperor and watching coldly. Both of them acted like tyrants who looked high and mighty and treated human life as worthless.

The other people present were the emperor's confidants and the imperial guards.

He simply wailed at Yuwen Huaibi:
"Wait! Your Majesty, please let me speak. I am here to negotiate! When two countries are at war, they will not kill envoys..."

The Xianbei Emperor looked at him with his phoenix eyes, "Now you are an assassin. Not taking your anger out on the Liang State is already my greatest tolerance."

"Your Majesty Tianhe, you are so confused! With just one sentence, she caused discord between the two countries. How is she different from Daji? Who of you is the more incompetent ruler?"

Yuwen Huaibi raised his arm impatiently and waved his slender jade hand that had escaped from the pale yellow sleeves embroidered with silver dragons:

"Cut off his tongue and execute him on the spot. This will also serve as a warning to the world: if you dare to assassinate the Lord of Huaxu, this is the fate!"

The guards also bowed their heads and shouted in unison, "Yes!"

They grabbed the boy's shoulders and arms together and dragged him down, but the boy suddenly began to struggle desperately.

Apparently, the Northern Zhou emperor enjoyed being a tyrant for Daji and was content with it.

Yuwen Xiaobo who was standing by was stunned and stared with wide eyes. He just thought that his own emperor had cheated on him with Nanfeng, but the rumored male lover was sentenced to death by just a few words from the queen.

But Yuan Wuyou wanted to kill him the moment he saw him appear next to Yuwen Huaibi.

She doesn't need a nonsense-mouthed, uncontrollable demon by her side. Code name Feng is interesting, but he is of no use to her and will be a nuisance wherever he is.

Only then did Shan Wuling realize that he could not rely on the romantic emperor of Northern Zhou, so he had to place all his hopes on the female ruler.

He struggled and shouted "Wait!", and turned to the queen and cried for help!

"Save me, little fairy! Have you forgotten what we just said? I have really turned over a new leaf. Now I just want to protect you..."

Because this guy was much heavier than he looked, his struggle had exhausted the two imperial guards.

Upon hearing this, before the female ruler could even speak, Yuwen Huaibi could not help but interrupt her with a stern voice: "Take her away quickly! Don't let this vixen seduce the ruler of Huaxu again!"

"Wait! Little god, listen to me!" The guards had no time to listen to him. Two more people came up and directly picked up the boy and dragged him away.

"I know the fate of you, Emperor Tianhe, and the Lanling King of Northern Qi!"

The young man, who was dragged two steps away by the imperial guards, turned back and shouted at Yuan Wuyou at the top of his voice.

Hearing this, Yuan Wuyou suddenly raised his eyes, "Wait! Stop, let him speak."

She would rather believe it.
