A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 858: The New Enemy
The sky turned gloomy before dusk.

When Li Mingjian arrived at the Dangxiang camp to pick up his sister, he found that she had just come out of the Dangxiang Khan's tent.

Fortunately, when she came out, she was wearing a black short robe, holding a folded armor and walking in front, with a rosy face. Behind her came a tall and thin man in Qiang clothing.

Mi Qinlin, who was leading Li Ming, quickly raised his hand to introduce:
"Mr. Li, this is the Khan of our Tuoba tribe."

Immediately afterwards, Mi Qinlin also introduced Wan Yuwuyu:

"Khan, this young man said he is the elder brother of the Lord of Huaxu State and is here to look for his sister."

The young Khan first frowned, then glanced at the girl beside him with his cold eyes for confirmation.

After receiving the eye signal, Yuan Wuyou nodded immediately, "It is indeed my brother, who grew up in Southern Xinjiang since childhood."

Wan Yuwuyu then stepped forward, clasped his fists and said to Li Mingjian in a crisp and clear manner: "I am... Tuoba Ningcong."

Li Ming saw it and said, "Wan Yu, who followed his mother to betray the country, is safe? I recognize you."

Upon hearing this, except for Li Mingjian himself, Wan Yuwu Yu, Yuan Wuyou and Mi Qinlin who were present all raised their heads in unison and looked at the handsome young man with pigtails in astonishment.

Wan Yuwu was a stranger to him, but he felt that he was familiar at first sight. His eyebrows, eyes, nose and lips were all very familiar. He was a handsome and cold beauty, but his facial features were gloomy, and he exuded a cold and ghostly aura.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Wan Yuwu's good impression of him disappeared immediately, and she no longer thought he was good-looking.

You can't blame Li Ming for starting trouble as soon as they meet.

But he felt that the Tangut Khan "Tuoba Ningcong" in front of him was insincere, very secretive, and rarely spoke the truth.

Even though the young Khan was dressed neatly and looked pale, Li Mingjian could see unusual shame and resentment in his eyes, as if he was unwilling to be caught in an affair.

And the look he gave his sister was full of affection.

Yuan Wuyou saw that things were going badly, so he quickly walked up to the black-clothed boy and said, "Brother! What do you want from me?"

When Wan Yuwuyu heard the queen calling him "brother" warmly, his eyes suddenly became strange.

Li Ming glanced at the Dangxiang Khan and saw that Tuoba Ning's eyes were sinister and cold, as if he would get angry if he said something bad about him.

If he had his temper, he would definitely have a fight with him, but Li Ming, for the sake of his sister's face, did not expose his evil intentions in person.

In the end, Li Ming just thanked Dangxiang Khan for taking in his sister and warned him not to be a traitor again. He also warned him to leave quickly. When the Zhou army came here, he took Yuan Wuyou away.

The young Khan looked at the backs of the brother and sister without saying a word or following them. However, his eyes never left them until he could no longer see them.

Mi Qinlin then walked over to his own Khan and exclaimed, "Who is this Mr. Li? I've never heard that Huaxu, the only female ruler, has a brother? Did she recognize him outside?"

The young Khan's phoenix eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice: "His life experience and bloodline are questionable, and the Huaxu and Yuan families have not recognized him. So, he doesn't count."

"Oh, he's quite arrogant. You can tell at a glance that he's the son of a prince. Look at his official tone and manner, as if he's the ruler of Huaxu. Could this be the bishop of the female kingdom?"

"No." At that time, Wan Yuwu's eyes showed no trace of cruelty. "He has only been back to the Central Plains for a few days. How come he hasn't died in Southern Xinjiang yet?"

Hearing this, Mi Qinlin was frightened by his ruthlessness and turned to look at his own Khan.

"Khan, did you have a grudge against him in the past?"

Wan Yu Wu Yu said calmly: "It's a recent feud."

"Why? ...Oh, yes, because he kidnapped the queen?"

This time, the Khan did not reply to him. He just turned around and walked towards the tent.

Mi Qinlin followed him, deliberately getting very close to him, shielding his face with one hand, and whispered to him, "Khan, Khan, you've been in the same room for an entire afternoon, and there's no... any progress?"

Wan Yu Wu Yu didn't even turn his head, and just said in a muffled voice: "Yes."

"Then did you use the few moves I taught you? Was it effective? Did you make her anxious and impatient?"

"……Um."

"She got what she wanted, so she must be happy, right? Then why did she leave without any regrets?"

"I don't know. She doesn't seem very happy... maybe she dislikes me a little."

"How is that possible?"

Wan Yuwu thought about it, his eyes frustrated. "I scratched her hand, and she said I was a mace."

"what?!"

Mi Qinlin was quite shocked. Just then, the two of them walked to the door of the tent. He first waved away the guards at the door, then lifted the door curtain and said, "Khan, please go in first. I will analyze your situation."

As the young Khan entered the tent, he said in a muffled voice, "No need, just take it one step at a time."

"Don't worry, don't be sad. Doesn't he know a group of Western medicine dealers? I'll send someone to tell him to find some...scar removal and skin rejuvenation stuff. This is definitely not a big deal."

——The other end.

Yuan Wuyou rode a horse and walked side by side with his brother on the way back to Xinye.

She was originally afraid that Li Ming would interrogate her and Wan Yuwuyou, so she was very nervous all the way. But he didn't say anything, and the two of them were silent for a long time. Yuan Wuyou stole a few glances at her brother beside her, and was caught by him a few times, and she was scared.

Finally, I couldn't hold it in any longer and could only ask:

"Did the Xiangyang governor ask you to come? Is there any urgent military information?"

"There is no more urgent military situation than bringing you back. And your loyal minister doesn't trust me, and keeps nagging you to go back and take charge of the situation."

"Oh... that's how Governor Yu is, blindly loyal."

Seeing that his sister finally let down her guard, Li Ming pretended to be indifferent and said lazily:
"That Tangut traitor seems to be very interested in you. Has he flattered you?"

"Ah? What are you talking about?" Yuan Wuyou was still caught off guard by the question.

The young man in black snorted,

"Don't play dumb. He definitely likes you, and you didn't reject his advances, right? Besides, men are the best at judging other men. He has the eyes of an eagle and the back of a wolf, but he's a ruthless guy with ambition in his eyes."

Sister Yuan said with a guilty conscience, "Wan Yu Wu Yu is quite good. He only wants to be a member of my family rather than a husband and wife, and he doesn't fight for favor or get jealous. He doesn't want to be the principal wife, but he has the mind and bearing of a principal wife."

"In fact, he is the most ambitious man around you."

"Brother, don't be too nervous. He is not that kind of person. He is not the material to be king."

"It's not about ambition to be king, it's about feelings. In fact, I saw you and him through your dream that day in Mulan City."

Yuan Wuyou's eyes were instantly filled with fear. "What did you see? Oh no, nothing happened to us, didn't it?"

Li Ming snorted unhappily.
"Are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? When he saw you being intimate with another man, he threatened you with "tyrant" and "slutty" and warned you. He was so jealous that he attacked indiscriminately and pretended that he was doing it for your own good. How cunning is his plan? Can't you see it?"
