A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 789 Hook and Hang
Inside the house, the candlelight was dim.

The two of them sat at the chess table in the middle of the couch.

Yuan Wuyou held up the boy's thin face and looked into his blue eyes.

Wan Yuwuyu's eyes were dark, "Do I look like him?"

"No, you are not like anyone else. You are just you."

"You regard him as the bright moon, and I used to regard you as the bright moon."

"Why not the sun?"

"The sun shines on everyone, but it hurts people if it's too close. But you seem to shine on me alone, as if you can just touch me. I'm sorry... I'm offended."

"Okay, I'll take pictures of you alone."

She looked at his handsome face with deep features and smiled evilly at the sound of his faint, pounding heartbeat.

"Kiss me."

"Kiss...where?"

"Mouth."

The young man's slightly curled eyelashes fluttered twice, and his deep blue eyes looked at her awkwardly. He pursed his red lips, and still mustered up the courage to prop up his upper body and move forward -

The next moment, the wooden table that was blocking the two of them was suddenly overturned by her!
With the loud noise of the table legs flipping up and the chessboard falling to the ground, the frightened boy stiffened his back, but was suddenly hugged by the girl on the waist.

Yuan Wuyou exerted force with his arms, pulled him into his arms, and began to counterattack.

It was clearly her who asked him to take the initiative, but in the end, she was the one who took the initiative and even used all her strength to pin him down.

Wan Yuwu was at a loss physically and mentally. He could neither respond nor refuse. He just looked at her awkwardly, his eyes deep and determined.

Seeing that he couldn't even breathe, and his pale face turned red from holding his breath, the girl on his body looked distressed and laughed out loud.

"Why are you so obedient? I don't know what I'm going to do to you, but you don't resist?"

"I've always been like this to you."

"I want to touch you so much, but I can't bear to."

"Young Master..." He spoke in a low, hoarse voice, his eyes dark, bright and focused.

"Call me by my name, call me Wuyou."

Wan Yuwu's eyes suddenly went dark. It turned out that she had leaned down again, blocking his view. His heart suddenly started beating wildly!

“…Young Master!”

Yuan Wuyou urgently stopped his evil behavior and sat back down in dissatisfaction. "Are you so opposed to me? Are you afraid?"

"No... I'm nervous..."

……

When Yuan Wuyou brought Wan Yuwuyu out, his uncle, Deputy General Mi Qin and Bai Lan's ally were already standing at the door.

They looked as if they had been waiting for him for a long time, and each of them had a smile of understanding on their face. He felt a little embarrassed and at a loss for a moment.

Oh no, I'm afraid I'll be misunderstood...

In front of everyone, the girl next to him suddenly came over and held his hand.

Wan Yuwu was embarrassed for a moment, and subconsciously dodged her hand, then froze. He looked at the girl next to him with shame, and seeing that she did not show any displeasure, he still stiffly put his hand into her palm.

Yuan Wuyou pushed his hand away, "Why are you avoiding me? Are you afraid of me? Or do you just not like to have contact with me?"

"It's not that I'm afraid of you, nor that I don't like you... I'm just not used to interacting with people, and I'm shy about it."

He explained quietly, feeling guilty for humiliating her in front of everyone. He was indeed not used to being intimate with her, and was even more ashamed to be intimate with her in front of others. Not just with her, but with everyone.

The girl smiled and said, "Then don't force yourself. Contact should be natural when the feelings are deep. You just need to be yourself, go where you want to go, and do what you want to do."

Hearing this, the young man looked up at her.

"Will the moon still have mercy on me, my sinner?"

"You are not guilty, I am nostalgic."

Seeing the two of them expressing their true feelings to each other in public, the three of them greeted the queen and left tactfully.

Wan Yu Wu Yu hurriedly ordered: "Mi Qinlin, take good care of my uncle. If he suffers any more losses, you will bring your head to me!"

Mi Qinlin Liansheng agreed, and hurriedly grabbed his uncle, who was looking at them both with loving eyes, and ran away.

Then he urged her: "It's time for you to go too. Just keep going and don't look back at me."

Yuan Wuyou chuckled and said, "Are you chasing me away again? There aren't many people left who have accompanied me all the way here. I still want to spend more time with you."

"If your mother was still alive, she and we would be able to protect you, give you a backer and the confidence to retreat. But there is no if. Now you have no one behind you, and countless enemies in front of you. I pity you, but I can't help myself. All I can do is fight to the death."

"Wan Yu Wu Yu, what do you really think of me? How could a teacher betray me and my country? If you have some feelings for me, why would you collude with outsiders to defile me?"

Whenever she mentioned the old days, even though her tone was calm and light, it weighed heavily on Wan Yuwu's heart.

He sighed, "I'm not worthy of you. Talking about love is too presumptuous and unrealistic for me."

"No! I have failed you, my mother..." "For the sake of the people of the world, even the king has no choice but to do it. It is not the king's fault. I don't blame you, let alone the words that you failed me."

When he said this, the young man's eyes were deep and solemn, and his tone was gentle and persuasive.

Yuan Wuyou's eyes became wet, and his heart ached. He choked up as he spoke. "Why are you so determined..."

In fact, Wan Yuwu's background is most suitable for Yuan Wuyou.

He came from the family fortune that Yuan Mingjing brought from Huaxu. The Tuoba tribe was withdrawn from the Yuan family to govern the Dangxiang.

Among Tianmu Khan's loyal ministers and generals, there were the Dugu family in the north and the Tuoba tribe in the west. One fought in the front line of the Northern Wei Dynasty for her, and the other consolidated the retreat of Huaxu in the rear for her.

The Wan Yuwu Yu family had been loyal for three generations. In his generation, because he was only one year older than the Crown Princess and had shown great talent and military strategy since childhood, he became the Crown Princess's tutor and taught her martial arts.

They are not master and disciple in name, but they act like master and disciple in reality.

If their Tuoba tribe had not suffered from hunger and cold, and had not been forced to rebel due to lack of food, if he had not been given the task of feigning surrender by the old fox Tianmu Khan, and had not followed in his mother's footsteps and rebelled with her, he would not have lost his integrity in his later years and carried the infamy.

Wan Yu Wu Yu was too loyal, so the king wanted to destroy his character, make him a lone minister, and put him in his own grave.

If he had not taken this path and had grown up with her, she probably would not be as ruthless and decisive as she is today.

Even, perhaps with Wan Yuwu's constant companionship and guidance, Yuan Wuyou would not have rekindled his old love with Prince Lanling of Northern Qi and the puppet emperor of Northern Zhou.

So who can we blame for the current situation?
Yuan Wuyou thought about it and blamed the Yuwen family for plotting to usurp the throne and bullying others, forcing the empress to drive away loyal ministers and become a traitor. Inwardly, he blamed the empress for not being loyal in her later years and not being able to protect her own ministers, and she deserved the infamy.

But even if everyone scolded her mother, she had no right to do so. Because everything her mother did was to pave the way for her. If these people were still around her and flattering her, Yuan Wuyou would never have the courage and insight she has today.

Just a little stubborn.

She has become a unique person there. Although she will not dream of the time when she was fifteen years old and everyone was happy in the middle of the night, she still holds on to a glimmer of hope.

Hope is lost and found again, broken mirror is reunited.

Just like she and Gao Changgong reunited after a long separation, they were in love with each other.

The two looked at each other in silence. No matter how much they talked, it would be useless if they listened too much.

Wan Yuwuyu suddenly remembered the way Han children played when they were young, so he stretched out his hand to her: "When we were young, you said that we had to pinky promises to make a promise."

"Hmm?" Yuan Wuyou was stunned for a moment. Before she could react, he took the initiative to hook her little finger with his.

"Let's make a promise. We will never change our promise for a hundred years."

"Keep your word."

She then remembered and smiled brightly at him.

After pulling the hook, she was still reluctant to let go of the warmth in her palm, but he had already withdrawn his hand.

Wan Yu Wu Yu's phoenix eyes were firm and solemn:
"Just keep moving forward and don't look back."

"You have to keep moving forward, don't look back."

The boy's lips twitched slightly, and a bitter smile flashed across his face. "If you were behind me, I would definitely turn back."

"Then forget me."

Upon hearing this, he suddenly raised his deep phoenix eyes, with a cold look in his eyes.

"Please... don't give up on yourself... I hope I can see you as soon as I look up. I don't want you to fall behind me. If that happens, everything I do will have no purpose."

Yuan Wuyou really wanted to punch him at this moment! Why is this guy always like this? When she advances, he retreats. When she retreats, he will further seduce her.

"Okay. I won't even die for the responsibility you entrusted to me."

"I just want to rely on you, but I won't drag you down." After a pause, Wan Yuwu Yu opened his lips and let out a long sigh, as if he had made some kind of decision.

"You go. I'm leaving too."

After saying that, the young man in rhinoceros-skin armor turned and walked towards the dark corridor.

From then on, he was still the Khan of the Tanguts, a young talent. His only weakness was her. Without her, he would have no weaknesses.

The moment Wan Yuwuyou hardened his heart and turned around, he couldn't control his heartache.

He didn't know what was waiting for him ahead, he gave up the only chance to turn things around. He didn't know how she reacted when she found out that he had incited the Xifeng tribe and led the effort to kill her, was she angry at him?

But he felt that fighting on the opposite side and stopping the Xifeng assassin who wanted to kill her with his own hands was the only thing he could do independently in his life.

He was afraid that he would not be able to help but look back, afraid that his heart would waver, so he kept convincing himself:

"My sun never sets. The light wants to save me, but I hide in a dark corner, resenting the light's meddling."

"The moon has never let me down. It is I who have let myself down. I threw myself into the swamp and became a bastard who cannot see the light."

"As long as I go to war, she won't have to suffer like this."

Wan Yuwuyu suddenly realized that he had been on the wrong path for the past three years. In order to clear his mother's name, he set up a memorial tablet and helped the Yuwen family and the Tuoba family.

His belief is that whoever gives him milk is his mother, and he will follow whoever treats his mother well.

But he recently realized that if you beg for something from others, since others can give it, they can also take it back. Only what you take yourself can you hold firmly in your hands.

There is only one thing Wan Yu Wu Yu dare not fight for or ask for, and that is her feelings.
