A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 784 Princess Bai Lan
Even if Wan Yuwuyou is not strong enough to become emperor on his own, doesn't he still have the Queen Huaxu by his side?

If she doesn't want to sit on the throne, there are plenty of people who can do it. If she doesn't fight for the country, then he will!
Qin lost its power, and the whole world was chasing it. Whoever first defeated Qin and entered Xianyang would be king!
The attack by the young Dangxiang Khan caused panic among all parties.

He is indeed brave and resourceful, but he has one flaw: he is like a sword without a handle, out of its sheath. He is fierce and ruthless to everyone, and seems to have no scruples about killing anyone.

But he was strong both physically and mentally, without any weaknesses, and he was calm and steady, so under the blade of this sharp sword, only his enemies suffered.

The Zhou State was optimistic about this, thinking that he was only a vassal king after all, short-sighted and only showing off his courage for a short period of time. He was not like a female Khan who had not yet reached adulthood, but was more like a hegemon who had dominated a region for many years.

She is like a sword in a sheath, able to go out and come back. She seems to be able to give others a handle, but in fact she is a gentleman.

Seeing the situation of the Tanguts dominating one side, some people were relieved and some were horrified. Only the deputy general Miqin, who was beside the Khan, was glad.

Fortunately, at the critical moment just now, their Khan woke up and was not bewitched by the woman and could not hold the knife.

When he thought of his own Khan, who had been so humble and weak in front of the female monarch... and was bullied and abused in the territory of Zhou Kingdom, he felt cold all over, as if he was having a nightmare.

Other enemies can be killed, but the queen has rescued her own Khan several times, so she must not be killed or defeated.

But it is this kind of gentle knife that can take lives.

……

Yuan Wuyou saved someone on his way back.

She was a Qiang woman whose calf was bitten by a snake.

He was wearing rhinoceros-skin armor, long sleeves and long pants, the clothing of the Qiang people, with an exquisite white lacquered longbow and crossbow on his back, and he spoke Qiang language.

Yuan Wuyou was dazzled by the gem on the bow carried by the woman from a distance. When he looked at it from closer, he secretly admired it, what a good weapon!

Fortunately, Yuan Wuyou knew some Qiang language and came over when he heard her shouting for help. When he got closer, he saw that she had squeezed out most of the poisonous blood with her hand, leaving only a little bit.

Yuan Wuyou deduced what kind of snake had bitten her through the tooth holes on her calf. He then quickly searched for some herbs that could inhibit snake venom, chewed them up, and applied them to the wounds with the snake tooth marks.

The young woman claimed to be Bai Lan's girlfriend. She looked to be in her twenties, with deep features and a cold, fair complexion.

I didn't expect that in such a place, I would meet the Bailan people who were pushed out by the Dangxiang to take the blame and then disappeared without a trace?
Yuan Wuyou was deeply surprised.

But the Bailan people were not surprised.

Seeing her occasionally looking at her clothes with her peripheral vision, the Bai Lan woman began to talk to her in a familiar manner. But what she said was all irrelevant, and she did not understand some of the Qiang language.

As soon as he saw the crossbow on the back of this white lady, he knew that she was no ordinary person. Even though Yuan Wuyou was used to seeing weapons and treasures, he was still interested in the finely crafted and solidly made white bow in front of him.

The bowstring is made of some kind of wild animal tendon, and the crossbow slide has serious signs of use, but there is no wear and tear. The most eye-catching thing is that there is a crystal mirror on the back seat of the crossbow. Judging from the inlay position, it should have the same function as the Qin crossbow "mountain mirror".

The string of red and blue sapphires, watermelon tourmalines, etc. inlaid on the bow show that he has a wealthy family and is a man of status.

When Yuan Wuyou finished bandaging the white lady, she suddenly stretched out her arms and hugged him, saying:

"Young Master, I miss you so much!"

Yuan Wuyou was strangled by her and could hardly breathe. He said with difficulty:
"Let go! I think you want me to die!"

The woman then let go of her awkwardly, and when Yuan Wuyou touched her throat and coughed, she grabbed her hand again.

The queen squinted her eyes and asked, "Do you recognize me?"

The Bailan girl smiled and said, "My Chinese name is Bailandi. Three years ago, on your birthday, my mother and I sent you Bailan specialties. I guess you don't remember me, right?"

"Are you the daughter of King Bai Lan?"

"That's true." Yuan Wuyou nodded secretly after hearing this, he was right in his guess.

Then he sat on the ground facing her.

"How on earth did he convince you? Tell me about your plan."

"Who is he?"

"Wan Yu... Tuoba Ningcong, the Dangxiang Khan."

As the queen spoke, she couldn't help but glance at the crossbow on the woman's back. She couldn't help but imagine how powerful and accurate the arrow shot from the crossbow would be!
Back then, the Qin crossbow had a "sighting mountain" at the rear of the crossbow, which could help the holder to aim and load the bullet with a high probability. The hit rate was so high that it was almost impossible to miss, making it a killing weapon that terrified the enemy. However, since the Han Dynasty, the manufacturing diagram of the Qin crossbow has been lost and it only exists in legends.

No wonder they say the Dangxiang have bows and the Bailan have crossbows, they are really great weapons!

Brandy's eyes suddenly fell on the middle finger of her right hand.

"Hey, isn't this the Tangut king's ring? You really have a good relationship with that young Tangut Khan."

Yuan Wuyou silently clenched his fist and hid the ring in his palm.

The two sat opposite each other. The female king in armor felt guilty about the teasing gaze of the woman opposite her, and couldn't help but explain:

"It's not important. I was the one who saved him from Eternal Lane and kept him by my side. I grew up with him, so I'm naturally familiar with him."

"Don't be embarrassed, I've heard everything about you two."

"What could possibly happen between us? Nothing happened."

"He's just a boy who has been with you since he was a child. In Bailang Dangxiang, everyone assumes that he is yours. Who would believe you if you say that he is fine?"

As he said this, Brandy suddenly came closer to her, and smiled, revealing his big white teeth:

"I noticed that you two look like a couple. You must kiss a lot."

"Not much, right?"

"Look, they kissed each other, right? They kissed each other, and you still want to deny it? That's a bit irresponsible of you."

Yuan Wuyou was choked up, and just as he blurted out "Ridiculous!"

I was so angry that I laughed at my own belated realization.

"Did he send you here as a lobbyist?"

"That's not the case." Brandy retorted smoothly, then leaned back lazily and sat back cross-legged.

"I know you can get married to a Han man in the Central Plains, but those two are from the enemy country. There is a national hatred and family feud between you and them, so it won't work out."

"No," Yuan Wuyou was sweating profusely because of what she said, and couldn't help but make a bitter face, "Where are you from? Who told you this? Are you here to gossip to me on purpose?"

Brandy snorted, "I'm not a lobbyist, I just want to speak up for my fellow countryman."

After a pause, Brandy's eyes suddenly sparkled.

"By the way, I heard that you were going to marry that Han Chinese man. He was wearing a ghost mask and looked very handsome. How handsome could he be? Is he more handsome than the Tangut Khan?"

Yuan Wuyou was stunned for a moment, "Wan Yu Wu Yu? Do you really think he is good-looking?"

Brandy's face fell and he pursed his lips, "Isn't he handsome? It seems that you have seen a lot of handsome men. Is that man with a ghost face really better looking than Tuoba Ningcong?"
