A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 923 Khan Arrives Late
As the princess ordered people to let the Dangxiang Khan in, Gao Changgong swallowed all the words he wanted to say to persuade her to go back with him.

The Dangxiang finally arrived, led by Khan Tuoba Ningcong himself. He was close and must have known the situation in Xinye, but he had been watching from the sidelines. It was obvious that he trusted the female ruler too much to break the situation.

Wan Yuwu had been worried about King Fengling. Only after he learned outside the city that the Zhou army had withdrawn and King Fengling had regained control of Xinye did he dare to come and see her.

She was led to the inn by the Yuan family soldiers. As soon as she entered the main hall, she saw a group of people around her, including the couple from the northern border, Jialuo who grew up in Shu, and two handsome men standing behind her.

One of the two men stood tall and handsome, with golden armor covering his entire body, showing his strong chest muscles. The most eye-catching thing was his handsome face, and he looked exactly like Lanling King.

The other person beside her was a young man in a black shirt, with delicate and feminine features on his face, and his black hair was tied into a braid hanging down in front of his chest. It was Li Mingjian.

Even though the boy's facial features were somewhat similar to those of Wan Yuwu's lover, it could not change the fact that he hated Li Mingjian, which was second only to Gao Yanzong.

Wan Yuwuyu pretended not to see anyone, walked through the crowd, and went straight to the queen in orange shirt and black robe, "Are you hurt?"

Yuan Wuyou subconsciously waved his hand wearing a black three-finger glove and said,

"No, why are you here again? Didn't you go back to Nanyang? Aren't the Zhou army besieging the Tangut army in Nanyang?"

"Your situation here is critical, how dare I leave? If you are gone, the Dangxiang will be a land without a master, and will be in disarray."

In front of others, Wan Yuwu Yu always claimed to respect her as Empress Huaxu, acting like a loyal subject. But Yuan Wuyou had seen his other side of wolfish ambitions, and his ambitious statement that he wanted her to compete with him for territory, making it impossible for the handover to be peaceful, as if it was right before his eyes.

Gao Changgong looked at the young Khan in front of him, pursed his lips and snorted, "Why is King Dangxiang here again? With the enemy at hand, can't you guys reminisce later?"

Wan Yuwu felt that since Lanling Wang did not regard him as a king or Tangut Khan, and was so arrogant that he did not even bow or clasp his fists to him, he did not need to be polite to Lanling Wang. He just said to the Queen as if no one was around:

"Since the Zhou Kingdom has turned against you, you should not stay here for long. I am here to take you back to Nanyang. Let's go."

Gao Changgong's dark eyes suddenly became sharp, and he glared at the young Dangxiang Khan fiercely. Could it be that he was here to steal his job?
He immediately stretched out his arm, blocked Yuan Wuyou, and said to Wan Yuwuyu: "I invited her first, she has to go back to Da Qi to have a look."

Wan Yu Wu Yu's phoenix eyes suddenly turned cold, "You——"

"——Enough!" Yuan Wuyou interrupted the two angrily, and waited for them to turn their heads to look at her before she said,
"I won't go with anyone. The matter in Xinye is not over yet. By the way, where are the Bailan rebels?"

As she spoke, she looked towards Wan Yuwu Yu.

"Bai Lan rebelled, wasn't it because of you?"

Gao Changgong frowned in confusion, "Why? What's going on?"

Others didn't know the inside story, but Wan Yuwuyu knew it clearly in his heart. However, he shook his head and said firmly, "No, she can like 800 men a day. She won't do anything without profit. In her eyes, men may not be as valuable as a basket of naan bread. They are all excuses."

Everyone seemed to understand something, but no one was willing to ask further questions.

Since they were here tonight, Yuan Wuyou arranged for everyone to rest in the inn first. The duty of guarding the city gate was taken turns by Bei Er and Jia Luo. It was not that she felt sorry for the men and her brother, but that she did not trust them.

As for Wan Yu Wu Yu, he was not considered by Yuan Wu You at all. The ignored young Khan said dissatisfiedly, "What about me? Will I live with you and Lan Ling Wang?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Dangxiang Khan.

Gao Changgong, who still held the spear in his hand, secretly clenched his fists, frowned, and looked indignant, "Why?"

The Queen also put on the black thin leather gloves, which showed her strong muscles and pointed at the young Khan with her strong and powerful fingers:

"You go! Get out of town now."

Wan Yuwu was chased out in public, which was quite embarrassing, but he was used to it, and soon regained his composure. He even approached his beloved who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, his phoenix eyes and long eyelashes drooped slightly, and whispered to her,

"I left all my guards outside the city and came to your territory alone. Now everyone here hates me. If you let me leave alone, I'm afraid they will take the opportunity to kill me."

Hearing this, Li Mingjian, who had been listening attentively to hear what tricks he was going to play, replied sarcastically:
"You are quite self-aware."

Gao Changgong followed closely, his eyes wide open, staring angrily at the young Dangxiang Khan in front of him. "I won't kill you, but as long as you don't steal my wife, I won't hate you."

Wan Yuwu Yu, who had just been lowering his head and looking docile to the princess, now returned to his usual gloomy expression, and his handsome face with cold features was always covered with a layer of frost.

Thinking that the Dangxiang Khan came for him after all, Yuan Wuyou raised his hand helplessly to support his forehead, "Okay, I'll send someone to take you out later."

Seeing that the princess had softened her attitude towards him, before everyone could react, Wan Yuwuyou struck while the iron was hot and suddenly stepped in front of her.

"Except you, no one here doesn't hate me." As he said this, the young Khan suddenly pulled her hand that was hanging in her sleeve and touched her right middle finger, which was still wearing the white jade king ring he had given her.

Wan Yuwu was secretly delighted, and couldn't help but hold her hand and ring, feeling her warmth through her leather gloves.

When Yuan Wuyou saw him trying to hold her hand, she thought that Gao Changgong was still here and she would probably be sad if he saw her, so she quickly pulled her hand back.

Fortunately, the young Khan did not try to stop her from pulling her hand back.

Wan Yuwuyu lost the warm and slender hand that he was holding, his thin lips pursed stubbornly, and his bright dark eyes revealed frustration.

But he did not complain. Instead, he took advantage of the fact that the two of them were almost face to face and looked at her with his deep blue eyes. His long, thick black eyelashes fluttered a few times, and he lowered his voice:
"When I came here, I saw that the rain had stopped and there was a full moon in the sky. It was so cold after the rain. I should have worn a cloak earlier... Young Master, please have mercy on me..."

His cold and tough voice was still as steady and powerful as before, but the ending tone had a hook, and even sounded a bit coquettish and pleading.

At this moment, Yuan Wuyou seemed to see his old self again.

When she was young, Nagule was an abandoned child living in the cracks of Chang'an, hiding in the dirtiest corner of the splendid imperial palace. It was under the moonlight that she met the boy of a foreign race in Yongxiang.

Born in the clouds, the only princess of the Western Wei Dynasty had never known the hardships of farming and the sufferings of the world. But it was only after she met him that she realized that the imperial palace, which claimed to be a glorious place, also had dark corners and places where the sun could not shine.
