A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 974 Chapter 974 Take Back Your Harsh Words
Although the two of them were in the wilderness, Wan Yuwuyu recalled the days and nights he and she had spent together in the Nanyang Palace in the past few days.

He realized once again that all he needed to be happy was for her to be by his side.

Wan Yuwuyu pursed his lips and sighed, "What happened a few days ago... I am sorry for you, and I also blame myself for what happened to those people in Rang County..."

He took the initiative to admit his mistake and apologize for the incident in Rang County. Yuan Wuyou was a little surprised, but also felt that it was reasonable.

Sure enough, as long as Yuan Wuyou is willing to look back and give Wan Yuwuyou a chance, even if it's just a kiss, he will comfort himself, reflect on himself, apologize to her, and comfort her.

Although Yuan Wuyou didn't appreciate his apology in her heart, after all, the young Dang Xiang King in front of her had just sacrificed his life to save her from the pursuers. For someone like Wan Yuwuyou... who always did evil things in silence, it was not easy for him to take the blame this time.

She didn't dare to dispel his conscience and nodded.

"Well, you'd better not do it again."

The girl in the golden armor had a smile on her face and her expression was as gentle as ever. Under the blood-red setting sun, her amber eyes looked like two rubies inlaid with gold edges.

Even if she was just breathing, he felt that she was very capable, and she made him want to stick to her like a dog.

It seems that there is still room for improvement in the relationship between the two.

Wan Yuwuyu breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously, and then carefully raised his dark and bright eyes, with hope in his eyes, and said in a low and hoarse voice:
"Can you...take back what you said last time?"

"What?"

Yuan Wuyou frowned, his eyes blank.

She didn't know whether she was pretending or had really forgotten. Wan Yuwu, who was not good at speaking, still mustered up the courage and said with difficulty:

"You said... regret meeting me."

Even though he avoided the main point and did not say the exact harsh words that Yuan Wuyou had said that day, it still made Yuan Wuyou remember it instantly.

Yuan Wuyou was not surprised at all that he held a grudge and was so obsessed with it. After all, she had learned from Gao Yanzong that when they had an argument, they should poke at the other person's sore spots. If it didn't hurt, it would be better not to say it.

Yuan Wuyou pulled the corner of his mouth helplessly.
"Can this be taken back?"

Seeing that the girl had a calm face and didn't take it seriously, I wondered if she thought that kind of words were not a big deal or if she was too cruel to take back her words.

The young man was anxious for a moment, his dark eyes were wet, "You know... I care about this the most."

Yuan Wuyou naturally understood what he meant, but she did not want to abuse her power for personal gain and forgive him for the massacre in Rang County just because Wan Yuwuyu rescued her this time.

She thought that personal matters were not enough to offset official mistakes, and she did not want to forgive him easily or apologize to him.

Thinking of this, Yuan Wuyou raised his eyebrows, folded his arms, and glanced at the young Dangxiang King in front of him.

"Do you care so much about this? Do you think you can make up for your sins and make me admit my mistakes?"

"No! I'm not asking you to admit your mistake!"

Wan Yu Wuyu hurriedly shook his head, his dark and bright eyes sincere.
"I just want you to take back what you said, and don't say you regret meeting me! After you said that that day, I was as good as dead... If you really hate me that much, why not kill me with a sword? It would be better than living like this, a life worse than death."

Hearing this, Yuan Wuyou's determination was shaken.

She couldn't help but put down her arms and said seriously:
"I was wrong. I regret saying that to you. If I hadn't met you, Li Mingjian and I would have died here today."

As she said this, Yuan Wuyou raised her hand and touched his right ear, which was wearing a gold ring and a red tassel. The earlobe felt soft and instantly turned red under her fingertips...

Her words instantly brightened Wan Yuwu's eyes, and he ignored the strange red color on his ears. Now, his face was full of happiness that was visible to the naked eye. "Yeah."

After he responded, he continued, "Don't say that again, okay? If you really hate me, I can accept beating me or scolding me, but I just ask you not to... hurt my heart..."

"It depends on your performance. You have a weak spot, and so do I." After saying that, Yuan Wuyou frowned, turned around and ran towards his black horse.

Wan Yuwuyu also hurriedly turned around, stepped on the stirrups and got on the horse quickly, and followed her horse as he had promised.

When the two ran out of the ferry, the sun was already setting, and they had just had a heart-to-heart talk and apologized, which delayed them. When they were on their way to Xiangyang, it was dark.

Although it is a desolate wilderness, the moon is on the branches, like a secret meeting between two people.

At least for Wan Yuwu, after he confirmed that he and she loved each other, it was the first time that he was alone with her without any pressure and aim.

The two men rode side by side, but the young Dangxiang King unconsciously kept glancing at the armored girl beside him.

Whenever he turned around, the silver-white rhinoceros leather armor on his body would be dazzling in the moonlight.

But he himself knew nothing about it.

Just as the boy, who had been silent all the way and had not spoken, secretly looked at her again, Yuan Wuyou could not help but turn his head away.

When their eyes met, the caught boy hurriedly turned his head, lowered his eyes, and tightened the reins to hide his embarrassment.

Yuan Wuyou took the initiative to speak:
"You followed me out like this and stayed out all night. What will happen to the Tanguts? Aren't you afraid that the news of my attack is a lie spread by the Zhou Kingdom to lure you away from the mountain?"

Wan Yu Wu Yu said in a muffled voice: "I have arranged the funeral affairs and asked Mi Qinlin to act as the king."

"You still haven't learned Chinese well. 'Afterlife' is not a good word. It's unlucky. Don't say it anymore."

"I'm not wrong. I'm prepared to never be able to return to Tangut. I'm also prepared to be killed by the enemy if you don't appreciate it."

"Stupid dog." Yuan Wuyou cursed him subconsciously, and then hurriedly said, "Where are your evil ambitions?"

"My biggest ambition is to conquer Chang'an and then marry you."

"...Heh, silly wolf."

The two men walking side by side looked at each other. In the eyes of the young Dangxiang King, there was no shame of being scolded, nor was there any wolf-like ferocity. There was only a pair of sincere, dark and bright phoenix eyes embedded in his cold and handsome face.

Wan Yuwuyu's heart tightened when she looked back.
"I... don't you like me like this?"

"No, I like it very much."

Then the girl turned her head away and looked forward.

Yuan Wuyou said with a firm tone:

"We will take Li Ming to Jiangling via the river near Shandu County. If we continue on, it will be either Shandu or Xiangyang."

"Well, I'll feel relieved if I send you to Xiangyang."

"What are you thinking? Flower protector?"

Faced with her teasing and joking, Wan Yuwu had never been so at a loss. The relationship between them had just eased a little, but it was as thin as a lotus root thread and too fragile. He didn't dare to react at all.

He had known for a long time that even if he was always so cautious and humble in front of her, he still couldn't get what he wanted, and he didn't know what he really wanted.

Seeing the young man on the white horse beside him pursed his lips and kept his head down, Yuan Wuyou had to change his tone.

"Are you hungry? What do you want to eat when we get to the city?"

"That's fine, go eat whatever you want."
