A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 960
"Yes, I am drawing a line between us. From now on, you and I, the Dangxiang, will have nothing to do with each other. But I will definitely take back the territory you have taken away, inch by inch!"

Wan Yuwu's throat choked, his wet deep blue phoenix eyes suddenly turned cold and cruel, his eyes were filled with cruel and dead silence.

"Next time we meet, you will be no different from everyone else. I will not show mercy. Even if you die, I will not even look at you."

"Even if I die, I won't die in your hands."

After the two men finished uttering harsh words, Yuan Wuyou turned his horse around first and urged it to leave.

Yuan Wuyou knew that Wan Yuwuyou did evil to help his relatives and it was not an unforgivable crime, but what he did was too cruel. He was an accomplice and the nominal principal offender in this inhumane act.

She could understand him, but she couldn't favor him or forgive him.

Wan Yuwuyu looked at Yuan Wuyou's departing back. His straight back could no longer hold on. He suddenly felt weak all over and fell off his horse with a plop.

The moment he fell to the ground, Wan Yuwu felt as if his lower back was about to break from the impact of a hard object!
He didn't care about the pain that felt like his whole body was shattered, and struggled to sit up, twisting his waist to feel for the hard object under him.

It was the silver sword he gave away.

Thinking of this, Wan Yuwuyu didn't bother to pick up the sword. He knelt on the ground in a hurry, and used his long fingers to dig through the grass, looking for the Dangxiang King's ring that she had thrown back to him.

The Dangxiang King, who was so powerful and domineering outside, was now just a young man who was in love and hurt by love.

The young man, who stood up tall and straight, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, now looked like a dog or a beast, crawling on the ground on his long knees, looking miserable and pitiful.

If someone came in front of him at this time, they would definitely see that his face was covered with tears, but he was stubbornly and anxiously turning over every inch of weeds and soil with his bare hands.

He didn't care about his fingers being scratched by sharp grass leaves and bleeding, nor did he care about the pain from being bitten by jumping grass insects. He struggled to search in the grass.

Even though he knew that she didn't want to keep anything he gave her, he still thought ridiculously that she was the one who taught him the knife mechanism in the king ring.

That was the only thing Wan Yuwu had in the world that was related to her. He had solemnly dedicated his love and the loyalty of the eight tribes of the Tanguts to her, wanting to show that no matter how far he went or how ambitiously he expanded his territory, his roots and his destination were all her.

But she no longer wanted his royal ring, nor did she want him.

Because the young Dangxiang King was kneeling on the ground, searching so intently, he didn't see anyone approaching until a pair of boots came over, stopped in front of him, then bent down, picked up a white jade ring and handed it to him...

Wan Yuwuyu looked up blankly and met the angry and distressed eyes of his deputy general.

He took his king's ring with trembling fingers and held it tightly in his palm with great care.

The two looked at each other in silence, but their words were worth more than a thousand words.

——Yuan Wuyou hadn’t walked far back when he saw someone coming towards him.

The man had a golden mask on his face, wore golden armor, black and red sleeves, and rode a white horse. He was standing on the road that Yuan Wuyou had to take to return.

The city gate of Rang County could be seen far behind him.

It was her uncle.

This is a wilderness path, and the bare soil is exposed only after being walked on so many times.

Yuan Wuyou let the horse go slowly in a depressed manner, without urging it.

She was closer to her uncle, and when they passed each other, Yuan Zizhu suddenly grabbed her wristband and handed her an oil paper bag with a knot.

"Here, I just came across a breakfast stall and bought some buns."

"Thank you uncle."

Yuan Wuyou subconsciously took the oil paper package. It was warm to the touch, but not hot.

Seeing that his niece was a little distraught, Yuan Zizhuo calmly turned his horse around and rode alongside her.

After noticing his delicate thoughts, Yuan Wuyou slowly raised his baby face with gloomy features, and looked solemnly at his uncle beside him with his brown phoenix eyes.

"You heard what we said just now, didn't you?"

Yuan Zizhu didn't dare to admit it. Fortunately, the golden mask hid the embarrassment on his face. He just coughed lightly.

"Good boy, don't be too sad. If you go and look at the people who have returned to their normal lives, you will find that your killing and your lover's destruction for the sake of justice are all worth it."

When he said this, he acknowledged that he had heard it.

Yuan Wuyou laughed, then shook his head, "He's not my lover. We were never together, and the baby died in my womb."

Yuan Zizhu knew very well that she was just saying that in anger. The child had always said one thing and meant another since she was a child, and she would never admit it even if she was beaten to death.

But he was relieved that at least she could pretend not to care.

"By the way, did you leave something in the city?"

As he spoke, Yuan Zizhu suddenly reached into his bulging armor to take something out.

"What is that?" Yuan Wuyou didn't even dare to look closely at his actions.

Yuan Zizhu took out a blue letter and wanted to hand it to her, but he found that the little girl had turned her face away and was avoiding him seriously, which he couldn't help but find funny.

"What's wrong with you? Is there something on your uncle's face?"

"No, it's your behavior... I've been annoyed by those shameless Western men in the city recently."

"You bad boy! Isn't your uncle dressed very warmly? How can you say that... it's like I'm always so dishonest."

As he spoke, Yuan Zizhu took up a thick stack of indigo letters with his white and strong fingers and handed it to her, "Why are you so careless? You threw away the letters that Lanling King sent you."

Yuan Wuyou stuffed the bun in his hand into his arms in panic, snatched the letter and opened it. He was relieved to see that nothing was missing.

"How did it end up in your hands?"

"I picked it up on the road. I saw a hole in the yard with a letter exposed."

Yuan Zizhu looked at you with a teasing look in his eyes, "He is quite generous. He wrote you a suicide note and even advised you to marry another man you love."

Hearing this, the girl in tight clothes suddenly stared.
"Why do you still open and read other people's letters privately?"

"If I don't open it and take a look, how can I know who the owner is?"

"That makes sense." After a pause, Yuan Wuyou suddenly said,
"Uncle, if I get married, will you be the witness?"

"Then it depends on who it is."

"Gao Changgong, do you agree?"

Yuan Zizhu's face froze, then he smiled while biting his back teeth, "Agree. If you can marry him back, I'll agree. This way, we can have one less strong rival, and he, an old man of my age, can call me uncle. But you can't marry out."

In fact, my uncle was very realistic. Prince Lanling would never betray the Gao family of Northern Qi. Even if he could really sever ties with the Gao family and give up everything to come to his niece, he would be a useless person with no power and only body and beauty, but no brains.

After all, his niece is Empress Huaxu and will become an emperor in the future. If a useless person like him is put in the backyard, he will soon be tortured to death.

Therefore, Yuan Zizhu was not worried at all that Prince Lanling would let his niece become a tyrant, and Prince Lanling did not have the intelligence to become a disaster.

Yuan Wuyou was silent for a while, and replied:
"I would like to marry him."

After saying that, she urged her horse to go, shouted "Gee", and walked towards the city gate alone.

Yuan Zizhu followed closely behind, running neck and neck with her.
