A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 983 Uncle Rescue
Yuan Wuyou turned around, climbed onto the two horses, one black and one white, that had been woken up nearby, and took King Dangxiang to Xiangyang.

The two men rode onto the official road side by side, but before they had gone far, they were stopped by a group of people standing in the middle of the road.

Each of the men was wearing armor and leading armored war horses. The armor on both the men and the horses was shining in the dawn sunlight.

Leading the group was a military commander wearing a golden mask.

It’s Yuan Zizhu.

Yuan Wuyou panicked for a moment and thought to himself that he was in trouble. But it was too late to turn the horse around and take a detour.

Moreover, there was a silly wolf whose fur had just been smoothed next to him. Yuan Wuyou didn't want to show weakness in front of her uncle. He was sensitive and easily felt inferior. If the reliable image she had just established collapsed, Wan Yuwuyou would probably collapse again and become uncontrollable.

Yuan Zizhu had a clear purpose and stopped the two men directly.

Then he stood with his hands behind his back, glanced at the young man riding side by side with Yuan Wuyou, and snorted from under his mask:
"Are you two in love again? Yuan Jixiao, do you still have the ability to distinguish right from wrong?"

My uncle's question needs to be answered in two parts.

Having just coaxed the sensitive and inferior little wolf cub into being cheerful and cheerful, Yuan Wuyou's first thought was that he was afraid that Yuan Zizhu would openly admit their relationship, as he was afraid that he didn't know Yuan Zizhu's hostility towards him.

But Yuan Wuyou immediately denied this idea. After all, Wan Yuwuyu has always been obedient and sensible in front of her. He should not be arrogant and cause trouble for her, right?

Yuan Wuyou subconsciously turned her head and glanced at the young man next to her. Seeing that he had a serious face, he also looked at her. After the two looked at each other, he lowered his eyes and clenched the reins with both hands helplessly.

Even the long tassel earring on his right ear was drooping limply.

Her heart instantly sank. It was over. This silly little wolf became a dejected puppy again.

Unable to bear seeing his beloved being wronged, Yuan Wuyou decisively took the blame on himself and said sternly, "I was beaten up by the Zhou people. Thanks to King Dangxiang who rescued me, he was going to send me to Xiangyang. But uncle, why are you here?"

Yuan Zizhu's eyes were sinister. "So, you two just happened to meet, brotherhood?"

"...That's hard to say. Uncle, you didn't come to me when I was in trouble, but now you are accusing me of these private matters. Who instigated you?"

"Your Majesty's Qiang concubine, Concubine She told me that you were abducted by King Dangxiang and asked me to rescue you."

Yuan Wuyou frowned and glared.

"It's a pure false accusation! She's putting the blame on someone else! I suspect she instigated the Emperor Yuwen in the same way. How come Concubine She is so favored? How could she find you?"

Regardless of what she said, Yuan Zizhu walked to Yuan Wuyou's horse and said, "Go home with uncle and confront him face to face."

Yuan Wuyou shook his head and opened his mouth to speak, then he said gloomily:

"Or do you want to go with this ungrateful wolf who colluded with the evil demons of the Western Regions and massacred the people of Rang County?"

"Uncle, you..."

"answer me!"

"You speak too harshly." Yuan Wuyou continued in a deep voice.

"He has been with me since he was six years old. I have been with him for ten years. Don't I know him? He is not my relative, but he is better than my relative. He is my only relative."

Yuan Zizhu was choked when he heard this.

With a fierce look in his eyes, he angrily said in a deep voice: "You are making trouble!"

Yuan Zizhu felt more and more that he had been bewitched by this boy's pitiful appearance. It was clear that Yuwen Huaibi was his niece's nominal husband, but the one who had been with her since she was a child was Wan Yuwuyu, who was a son-in-law of the Rouran and a member of the Tangut. And it was well known that Gao Changgong, the Lanling King of Northern Qi, had an engagement with her, but now his niece kept saying that this boy was her "only one"! It was too much! But he only dared to hate him in his heart, and did not dare to get angry in front of him.

However, when Wan Yuwuyu heard this, his eyes lit up instantly and he looked at the queen beside him with deep affection.

Yuan Zizhu turned his head to look at Wan Yuwuyu again, and said sarcastically: "Why is King Dangxiang silent? Are you mute? Earlier in the Xiyang Palace, you were quite eloquent when you scolded us."

Wan Yuwu was questioned by name and his eyes suddenly became cold and sharp. He was sitting on the horse and looked down at Yuan Zizhuo with disdain when their eyes met.

But he held it in for a long time, and only managed to say: "Lord Huaxu, what you said is true."

Yuan Wuyou suddenly took out a stack of letters from her breastplate and handed them to the young man standing side by side with her.

"Please go to Xiangyang first and help me deliver a letter to Governor Yu. I will follow after I talk to my uncle."

Wan Yuwu looked at her in astonishment and took the letter. He felt it was a thick stack and couldn't help but frowned, "What kind of letter is it? It's so thick?"

"The thick one is the one given by Lanling Wang... Memoirs. Don't open it. The thin one is what I want to say to Governor Yu."

Wan Yuwuyu raised his eyebrows, "Is it the confession letter he surrendered to you?"

"……almost."

As he put the stack of letters through his collar and tucked them into his breastplate, he said:

"You don't have to tell me not to read the letter he wrote. I won't read either of them. I'm not that ignorant."

Looking at the obedient silver-armored boy beside her, she thought he was honest and kind just by looking at his appearance, but Yuan Wuyou knew best that his silly and easy-to-tame appearance was only applicable in front of her.

If Yuan Wuyou didn't pay attention, Wan Yuwuyu might do something earth-shattering and inhumane.

"Tsk." Yuan Zizhu crossed his arms and raised his eyes.
"My dear niece, you are like a tiger away from the mountain, letting him escape."

Yuan Wuyou ignored his uncle and patted the boy's cold and hard rhino-skin shoulder armor, and whispered, "Go slowly on the road, be careful, there is no rush to deliver the letter."

The young Dangxiang King responded with a smile and said goodbye to Yuan Wuyou first: "Come up quickly."

Then he politely bowed to King Heyin and said goodbye, then urged his horse to leave.

Only the niece sitting on the horse and her uncle Ranxi standing under the horse and looking up at her were left.

Yuan Wuyou dismounted from his horse and bowed to his uncle.

"Uncle, what brings you here?"

"The way you two acted, the way he looked at you, was far from innocent."

"Uncle, you are worrying too much."

At this time, the two of them stood face to face, and Yuan Wuyou could smell the fragrance coming from Yuan Zizhu. It was the scent of camellia, but it was more than just camellia, there should be other spices, condensed into a clear and steady fragrance. It was in line with his age and status.

The only scent on Gao Yanzong's body was that of camellia, which was fresh, sweet and youthful, and obviously different from Yuan Zizhu's scent.

"I'm not saying anything to you, but you can tell a person's future from his age. This ungrateful person is not easy to tame. If you are deceived by him, you will cry."

Yuan Zizhu's voice was naturally graceful and pleasant, and his intonation was always elegant and youthful, so Yuan Wuyou had always ignored his age, and even the boundary between them and his elders became a little blurred.

"Don't worry about it, uncle. I know my limits."
