A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 583: Parental Love 583

As the little princess of the Celestial Empire was admitted as a VIP, even Dugu Ruyuan's mother, who was always hot-tempered, wore a formal dress and led a group of relatives to stand at the door and wait for her respectfully. He found that this girl was really honored.

And she is quite capable of leading troops, because this little girl always looks mature beyond her years, and she discussed with her father the important matter of "raising troops to save the country". Even though her father declined, she said she would visit him three times until he came out to help her save the country, and even talked about the Five Barbarians Rebellion in the past, when the 46 Tuoba tribes rose up together with the Dugu family... As a result, Dugu Kuzhe got angry when he heard her trying to get close to him and bring up old accounts, saying that he suspected that she hired someone to kill the assassin even though he had not investigated the assassin for a day, and that the Lord of the Suxing Mansion was nominally the emperor's personal guard, but in fact he was a lackey who dared to rebel at any time, and the Dugu family was unwilling to follow her in the rebellion.

Dugu Kuzhe drove her away in a tough manner.

Seeing the little girl being sent away in disgrace, her mother disagreed and stopped the girl to argue with her husband.

Chief Dugu was determined to see the guest off. His wife was the daughter of a famous general from the Northern Wei Dynasty. When she saw that she couldn't get any reason from him, she picked up an axe and wanted to show her husband how good she was!

While the male and female were fighting in front of others, they did not forget to ask their son to pull the little princess outside to prevent her from getting covered in blood.

Dugu Ruyuan naturally hurriedly asked the girl to leave the tent. He had already accepted the valuable gift of the Ferghana horse, so he carefully asked her what her plans were and whether she wanted to take any gifts back.
The little girl shook her head and said, "In the Central Plains, there is no reason to take back gifts that have been given. Since Chief Dugu doesn't want to see me, I will stay at the Yuwen tribe for a few days."

"Why go to someone else's house? Just stay in our tribe. At worst, you can stay in my tent."

Hearing this, Yuan Mingjing was choked with astonishment, and then jokingly looked at the young man in front of her who was a head taller than her. "Young Master, do you know what this means in the Central Plains?"

Dugu Ruyuan shook his head blankly, "I don't understand."

"In the Central Plains, only lovers can stay in the same room. Inviting the opposite sex into your boudoir means you want to do things between husband and wife."

"what's up?"

The Han girl used obscure words when speaking Xianbei language, which confused Dugu Ruyuan. His innocent questioning also confused her.

Yuan Mingjing did not go to the Yuwen tribe at night, but slept in the military tent of the chief's wife, next to the main tent. The wife wanted to live with the little princess, but she declined politely, saying that she was not used to it. So the wife drove the chief to his son's residence and moved into the main tent herself, saying that it was convenient for her to protect the little princess.

With her mother setting an example by favoring the little princess, Dugu Ruyuan also discovered that this Han girl, although pretending to be incompetent, actually possessed extraordinary skills.

He changed his old ways and showed kindness to Yuan Mingjing, taking extra care of this little girl who was living in a foreign land but still devoted to saving the country. He thanked her for saving his father, sent her food and drinks at night, and asked her if she wanted to go out to play.

They even interrogated the mastermind behind the scenes and found out that he was sent by a treacherous official in the court to prevent Princess Lanling from winning over the Dugu tribe and try to pin the blame on her.

After learning this, Dugu Ruyuan felt even more distressed about this little princess from the Central Plains. The northern part of the Great Wall is bitterly cold, the land is vast and sparsely populated, so most people living here stick together for warmth, and their blood is hard to cool down. He grew up in the carefree vast grassland since he was a child. His family was loyal and filial, and his mother and father were deeply in love. When his brothers and sisters were around, they always gave him the good things. It was hard for him to imagine how this young girl in front of him fought for power and intelligence with those people in the Celestial Empire.

Princess Wei Chao was not idle during her stay. The wife of the chieftain who was in charge of the military power of the tribe supported her wholeheartedly. Unfortunately, the wife was a Xianbei and could not speak Chinese fluently. She still had to listen to Dugu Kuzhe's command in government affairs. However, the chieftain was determined to live in peace and did not want to send troops and shed blood for the court.

Yuan Mingjing also learned that Dugu Rugu, the chief's late-born son, was able to become the young master because his eight older brothers and sisters all died for the country, leaving him the only one. That was why his father Dugu Kuzhe was unwilling to start an uprising, fearing that his family of loyal heroes would be extinct.

In order to persuade Chief Dugu to raise an army, Yuan Mingjing lived with the locals day and night and integrated himself very easily, but he was eager to return home. When his wife learned from the fourth son of Yuwen that she could not forget the young master at first sight, she took the lead in matchmaking and insisted that the little princess be her daughter-in-law, so that the Dugu tribe would be royal relatives in the future.

Dugu Kuzhe sneered at this. Didn't he know his son's temper? Putting aside his face, this kid was just a piece of wood with courage but no strategy. Even if he was promoted to the capital, he would be a general at best. Moreover, he couldn't even speak Chinese clearly, and he knew nothing about the customs of the Central Plains. How could he be a princess's consort?
But the Xianbei came from a mother-dominated tribe after all, and the tradition was even stronger in the north. If the lady wanted to form a marriage alliance with the Han, the people below would naturally flatter her. The tribe members even treated the little princess as a young lady, and always created opportunities for the two to be alone.

Upon learning that the little princess from the Central Plains also fell in love with his face, Dugu Ruyuan felt sad at first. However, she never took the initiative to court him, and it was always his mother who nagged and tried to bring them together. He didn't know whether she was being reserved or his mother had misunderstood him, but he felt unwilling to accept this.

Therefore, when she was not talking with her father and the chieftains of the various towns, Dugu Ruyuan would take her to play around Wuchuan at the suggestion of her mother. He was also quite pleased with this delicate Han girl. In the northern part of the Great Wall, strength is considered beautiful. He felt that although she was as thin as a snake, her arms and legs were muscular. After all, she was still young. Maybe she had been displaced for a long time before, so she would grow stronger in the future.

Yuan Mingjing initially thought that Dugu Ruyuan was bribed by the Ferghana horse and the bow and arrow, but recently he discovered that even the most unromantic boy would stutter when talking to her and blush when looking at her once he fell in love.

Later, I don’t know who gave him the idea, but he always asked her to learn Chinese and asked her to teach him how to write.

She had already fallen in love with this handsome man from the northern frontier at first sight. After getting to know him better, she found that he was pure and straightforward, with no evil intentions. He was completely different from those cunning young men from aristocratic families in the Central Plains. Therefore, she was not happy to see him use these simple tricks on her.

As they grew closer and closer, they understood each other's hearts. Yuan Mingjing told him more than once: "Dugu Ruyuan, you will realize your dream, you will uphold justice, and your name will go down in history."

However, Dugu Ruyuan quietly realized that his dream was not only to uphold justice and go down in history, but also had some selfish motives. He wanted to follow her to uphold the Han Dynasty and become a pair of wise rulers and loyal ministers that would be praised by future generations.

After spending some time together, even if they didn't break the ice, they were already an unspoken couple in the tribe.

Until that day, a secret decree written in blood by Empress Dowager Hu and the Young Emperor was heard from the Luoyang Palace and delivered to the little princess. The letter said that the emperor was poisoned by treacherous officials and his life was in danger. Yuan Mingjing, as the youngest sister of the late emperor, the aunt of the Young Emperor, and the Lord of Suxing who had protected the emperors of the Tuoba family for hundreds of years, naturally had to go back to take charge of the situation, so she hurriedly packed her luggage and got ready to go.

The summer hunting party had just ended, and the princess of the Celestial Empire, who was living in the Dugu tribe of Wuchuan, was packing up her personal guards and preparing to return to the court. The whole town was busy, but the little princess suddenly grabbed the boy who had been following her silently and asked him if he was willing to go with her...

The first love between young men and women is a matter of a moment. Yuan Mingjing fell in love at first sight when he returned from the grassland with the sunset sky, riding a horse with his hat tilted and bow in hand.
