A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

After hearing this, King Lanling, who had already left, turned back to Gao Yanzong and looked at his brother worriedly.

After receiving his brother's gaze, Gao Yanzong smiled at the Lord of Qi and said,

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. If a dandy like me doesn't want to marry, how can I give up my title and run away with someone else?"

Then he grabbed his brother's wrist guard and said, "Brother, let's go."

As soon as the brothers went out and found a place on the road where no one was paying attention, Gao Changgong suddenly turned around and asked Gao Yanzong:

"The matter between us is over, what about you? Take over from me, or retreat with me?"

Gao Changgong, who has always been straightforward when speaking, this was the first time he spoke half a sentence and left half a sentence behind. Gao Yanzong still understood such cryptic words.

Looking at his brother's dark and bright phoenix eyes, Gao Yanzong didn't see any pain or struggle in his eyes. He realized that his brother knew about him and her, but he couldn't figure out how much he knew.

Gao Yanzong bit his lower lip unconsciously, smiling with his peach blossom eyes, and a frivolous smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Don't worry, brother, I can still tell the difference between a full meal and a full meal. In the past, I just wanted to win her over. Now that the attitudes of the two countries towards her are so clear today, I can't deny my ancestors."

Having said that, Gao Yanzong still couldn't suppress the wavering in his heart. When the two brothers walked heavily and unexpectedly, they saw her standing in the middle of the military tents of Zhou and Qi, wearing a black shirt and wearing a tie. A tall girl in a red cloak.

Just by her conspicuous high ponytail and the double swords on her waist, one could tell that she was Empress Huaxu.

At this moment, there were several young people standing next to her, as well as a little girl wearing an unfashionable long-sleeved skirt, who was walking towards her following a red-faced boy leading a horse.

Gao Yanzong went up to listen and found that these young people had already begun to take sides.

Feng Lingxin, who was wearing a long-sleeved undershirt, suddenly ran two steps as she approached, threw herself into the arms of Empress Hua Xu, and said in a crisp voice:

"No matter when and where, I will follow my sister and support her. No matter where my sister goes, I will follow her! Even if she eats bran, I am willing to do so."

Yuan Wuyou was moved by these words. He raised his hand and rubbed Feng Lingxin's temples. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a voice coming from behind:

"Young master, do you want to return to Huaxu?"

Then I saw a woman in black armor, pushing aside the soldiers of the Zhou Kingdom who were following her, and joined the crowd.

Yuan Wuyou turned around and found that Lian Jialuo had come from Zhou Kingdom. He cupped his fists at her and said:

"No matter where the young master goes, Dugu Jialuo will always serve the young master. I know how to hunt. We won't be hungry all the way back."

Yuan Wuyou was immediately moved to tears, "How could I be worthy enough for you to risk your life to follow me?"

After the two sisters on the side made their impassioned speeches, they suddenly seemed to remember something and looked at A'Du who was holding the horse at the side.

A'Du was stunned for a moment and nervously raised his hand to touch the mane of the black pony beside him.

"I...can I spear fish? If King Lanling hadn't captured me, I wouldn't have wanted to leave Hua——"

He was interrupted mid-sentence!

"Shut up! Don't mention that Shandong rat!" Feng Lingxin suddenly stood up from her sister's arms, glared at the red-faced boy, and added,

"That bitch dared to add insult to injury and abandon my sister. What kind of hero is he? Shandong rat, ugh!"

Hearing this, Jialuo remained silent, but Adu asked softly: "Wasn't he born in Yecheng? He just had his fiefdom in Lanling, Shandong, right?"

Feng Ling gave him a heart-wrenching look: "You ignorant little Hexi girl, how dare you refute me? The east of Taihang Mountain and the north of Runan generally refer to Shandong. Do you know better than me?"

A'Du was so shocked that he stopped talking.

Yuan Wuyou quickly stopped him, "Don't talk nonsense! He has his own reasons. We just have to separate, it's not that we don't love each other anymore."

Gao Yanzong stood nearby, holding his arms and looking at it for a long time, until he heard footsteps behind him.

Gao Changgong stood behind him, listened briefly to the conversation of the girls in front, and asked in confusion.

"Why are these mere women so courageous, giving up everything to follow Empress Huaxu even though they know it is a dead end?"

Gao Yanzong narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said:

"Women in the world have had a kind of tragedy since ancient times. Men stand in line for profit, while women value feelings and loyalty. Therefore, when they follow Yuan Wuyou, they are prepared to follow suit regardless of body and soul. They have a sense of loyalty to the end and generous service to justice. The tragedy of sacrificing for faith.”

Gao Changgong sighed.

"I believe that Feng Lingxin will win the bet. But I can't give up everything to follow her. Everyone wants to be a minister of the dragon, and I also believe that she will be an outstanding empress, but I can't... abandon my current military achievements. And the family, go and accompany her to build a family from scratch.”

Upon hearing this, Gao Yanzong silently lowered his arms, turned to look at his brother, and asked with a smile,

"Brother has been worried for many days, and now he can rest. How about I take you back to your account?"

Gao Changgong looked at him deeply with dark eyes and nodded.

But after the two brothers turned around and walked away, Yuan Wuyou among the girls suddenly raised his eyes and looked at the backs of the two as they left.

Then, he said to the people around him:

"The spectators have left. Do you plan to go back to your own homes, or do you want to follow me to say goodbye to my stepfather?"

Feng Lingxin didn't hesitate: "Of course I'll follow my sister!"

Jialuo also clasped his fists and said, "If you have suffered enough, young master, my sword will not be harmful to you."

Yuan Wuyou nodded, then led a few people, led her horse, and dragged the family and their small luggage away.

As soon as Empress Huaxu's group of people left, not far away, a female general in black robes stood under the flag of the general of Zhou State, staring at their backs with evil eyes.

"The shortcoming of Empress Huaxu is that... she is powerful and free. When she travels to various countries, everyone wants to make her a sharp sword in their hands, so naturally there are endless beauty traps for her. I originally thought that she would not be seduced by men, but the matter of King Ande Later, I discovered that she was not invincible.”

"General, what kind of beauty should we find to join this brawl? At present, she likes the kind of King Lanling. There is also an unknown King Ande beside her, who still has an old relationship with the Lord of Zhou. How should we invest in her? So you want to drag her into the water for your own use?"

"Certainly cast a wide net."

***

Ever since Empress Huaxu decided to pack up and leave, and came to Zhou to say goodbye to her stepfather, and respectfully told Yuan Baoyue that there was no need to return to Huaxu, the attitudes of Zhou and Qi towards her changed.

The usually tenacious leader of the Huaxu Kingdom suddenly became discouraged, gave up on himself, and wanted to return to his hometown to farm just because of the trouble in Jingxiang. This made neither country believe it.

So when Gao Wei came to say goodbye to him, he tried to persuade her to stay.

"Why should my sister be so depressed? Even if Daqi cannot give up King Lanling, it can still give up other beauties. Don't forget that the Tongque Tower is in Yecheng. I also plan to invite my sister to Yecheng for fun."

But Empress Huaxu declined.

After being left by her, Gao Wei began to reflect on how he could keep her for a while with justifiable reasons.
