A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 522 I Want the World to Belong to Me

As expected, when the two of them walked onto an empty path, Su Wei said, "I had no intention of supporting the Yuwen family, but the young master's actions are too bullying! On the one hand, he used the puppet emperor to climb up to power, and on the other hand, he abandoned the puppet emperor's ladder and challenged the regent minister. Don't you know that two emperors died before him? You have angered the powerful minister so much, and you don't care whether he lives or dies?"

The young empress looked calm and said, "When I return to the court, I will fight for power and protect him."

"I don't understand. You were so tolerant and loving to King Ande, a complete tyrant, why are you so mean to our emperor? I'm afraid you will seize the kingdom of the Yuwen family and hand it over to the Gao family."

Yuan Wuyou smiled coldly: "Do you think I only know how to talk about love in Qi? Then why is Zhou so angry?"

Su Wei said it all: "Right now, the other people in Zhou Kingdom want to use you, but the emperor is the only one who is jealous of the other men around you."

She knew that Yuwen Huaibi might not be a real tyrant, he was just better at pretending to be one than she was. Since Su Wei was a middleman who did not favor either side, Yuan Wuyou could just use him to pass on the message.

"My threats to the enemy country can make them realize with fear that those who used to step into the mud are now out of reach. Therefore, my position in Qi does not need to be stable, but only needs to be dazzling and threatening to Zhou. When Zhou faces a capable person who has the same roots as me but works for the enemy country, it can either get rid of me or win me over."

"But you are like a fence-sitter... you are trying to take advantage of the situation. Isn't that too dangerous? Aren't you afraid that Zhou will suspect that you are loyal to Qi and that you regard Qi as your in-laws, and then pretend to surrender to Zhou?"

"My suspicion? Ha! In the eyes of the world, I helped Qi because of male beauty. The one I liked was Lanling Wang. Is Lanling Wang not good enough? Now I am just confused by Ande Wang. I believe that no one doubts his charm. Maybe my excuse for staying in Qi is not serious, but it is harmless and not a bad thing." After a pause, Yuan Wuyou narrowed his eyes, looked at the beam of light shining through the dark clouds above his head, and smiled nonchalantly,
"So if Zhou wants to win me over, they should either give me power or talk about old love and beauty. In their eyes, I am just a knife, a knife that is played around by men. Isn't that the case in your eyes?"

Indeed, she had analyzed all the trends in detail, and Su Wei was sweating coldly. He thought he saw through everything and understood people's hearts, but he found that what he saw was what someone wanted him to see.

Really scary.

Sure enough, people born in an imperial family would never be easy to deal with, especially the Yuan family, which is known for producing both wise and tyrant rulers!

Thinking of this, Su Wei's lips trembled and he said, "Young Master...what do you want?"

She said leisurely: "He's Jade."

These three ambiguous characters were amazing. They could mean one thing or two things. Even though Su Wei knew that with her determined look and her scheming, she would definitely get what she wanted, he still felt indignant for His Majesty.

"So is it the jade seal, or is it a crime to possess the jade? Now the jade seal is in the Xiao family. Although the emperor is fond of you, the goddess, Concubine She, is more devoted to him. Do you also want to be a goddess?"

"Oh, if I want to be a goddess, I'd rather be a goddess who is destined by heaven and proclaims the will of heaven. I'm much more legitimate than your emperor." "Isn't that just an empty title? So what?"

Hearing this, Empress Huaxu narrowed her eyes suddenly. Her gaze was sharp and she uttered softly, "I want the same writing system and the same track! I want all the wise men to come together and the people to support me. I want the world to belong to me!"

……

Zhou Guo learned from Piao Yao's confession that when they were in Jiyang City, the female bandit leader Tuoba Yuan of Chishui pretended to be the daughter of Tuoba Yan and wanted to discredit Wei Xiaokuan and persuade the young master of the previous dynasty to surrender. However, when they met, she found that she didn't need to do anything at all, as the little empress had fallen into the beauty trap set by the envoy of Qi.

Tuoba Yuan originally planned to return with the bandits, but suddenly received a letter from a flying eagle from Chishui. His attitude changed drastically, and he asked Piao Yao to deliver the letter to the queen personally, saying that he was willing to offer the property looted from Zheng's house and make friends with the young master of the previous dynasty.

Unexpectedly, the female crown princess of Western Wei, who was usurped by the Northern Zhou Yuwen family, actually used the name of King Fengling of Northern Zhou and suddenly brought the imperial guards to raid Piao Yao's hiding place!

Even so, Piao Yao dutifully put the letter in a pornographic book and passed it to the princess, but he didn't expect that the book fell into the hands of the male Fengling King, and the letter in the "Xuan Nu Jing" was also taken away by Tuoba Yan on the spot. Zhou Guo was "foreseen" and caught up with the Chishui female bandit in everything.

But Zhou State kept the secret strictly, and even Li Mingjian didn't tell Yuan Wuyou about it. She was very angry when she heard about it, and then she learned that Biaozi was now imprisoned in Xi'e City across the street, waiting for her to interrogate and study the letter. Yuan Wuyou didn't care about her resentment, and hurriedly took away the black colt fostered by Gao Changgong, and rushed to Xi'e City with the Zhou State delegation.

When he arrived at the place, Yuan Wuyou did not waste time and went straight to the point to pry open Biaozi's mouth. After learning where Zheng Taimu's money was hidden, he borrowed soldiers from the Zhou government to make a show of it, and he himself rushed forward in the name of King Fengling, dragging his one-armed man as the vanguard.

As soon as this gang entered the gold cave, they chopped the female bandit guarding the gate, and ordered the palace soldiers behind them to come up and tie up all the bandits with their shoulders and backs. Any resisters were executed on the spot, and they seized several carts of gold, silver and other valuables by force!

And this was just the tip of the iceberg of the looting, because Yuan Wuyou searched every carriage one by one but couldn't find the blood letter written by his mother.

While she was searching the vault, she also came face to face with the real female bandit leader Tieqiao. When Tuoba Yuan saw that the female crown princess of Western Wei came under the banner of King Fengling of Northern Zhou and brought soldiers from the Zhou government, he immediately labeled her as a fence-sitter who took the enemy as her father.

Especially her behavior of submitting to her and eating the salary of the traitor who usurped the country made Tuoba Yuan, who originally wanted to return the money, directly threaten to turn against her, and then left under the cover of the remnants of his army.

Yuan Wuyou, who was scolded, wanted to refute but felt that he lacked the confidence, so he asked people to take the bandits who were left alive back and continue to interrogate them about the location of other valuables.

It’s not that Yuan Wuyou is ungrateful, the main reason is that her mother’s secret edict written in blood has not been found yet. She just experienced the incident of Gao Yanzong forging her handwriting to write the engagement letter. If someone imitates her mother’s handwriting, wouldn’t the history books be tampered with at will?

As the saying goes, if you want to eat ice and hail, just when the dark clouds were pressing down on the city and a layer of drizzle was just beginning to fall, the Zhou Kingdom actually caught the flying eagle sent by Tuoba Yuan! So they not only seized a letter from her asking for help from "Weituohua", but also followed the scent of flowers and powder on the flying eagle to find her nearest hiding place.
