A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 625
Xiao Tongyan, who was afraid of chaos in the world, waved his hand with a smile and ordered the white-robed soldier standing beside him, "Go, change another set of tables and chairs for Prince Fengling. Really, I wanted to have a good chat with you all, but I didn't expect to waste the table like this."

King Fengling raised his eyes slightly, "Are you here to reminisce about the past? If I hadn't taken the brunt of it for you, how many beatings would you have received?"

"Tsk tsk, the more capable you are, the more work you should do. King Fengling is so domineering. Just sitting there makes people's hair stand on end. What's more... he has a face that can overthrow the whole world! For a woman like her, it would be abnormal for her to want any man? It would be abnormal for her to abandon any man?"

As she said this, she glanced at Gao Yanzong.

Yuan Wuyou was no longer surprised by her stirring up trouble everywhere, but he himself had become the target of public criticism.

Yuwen Zhi gnashed his teeth and said angrily, "Fengling King is so arrogant. He bullied my Great Zhou warriors in public. Does he not intend to be the Fengling King of Great Zhou anymore and set foot on the territory of Great Zhou again?"

At this moment, she calculated the time. It was almost time for everyone to arrive. So King Fengling stood up and glanced at Xiao Tongyan, "Stop making a fuss. It's as if I'm greedy for men and will abandon them after having sex with them."

Then he turned his head and glanced at the Duke of Wei.
"Since I am here, I will only be harmed by the innocent and take the blame for others, so I will take my leave first."

As he said this, he came out from behind the table.

Xiao Tongyan asked nervously, "Where is the king going?"

Yuan Wuyou then looked up at the host who was sitting on the seat above him and said, "Since I can't get the Zheng family's money back, then I'll go find someone in the Zheng family who is qualified to get the money back."

After saying that, he turned around, threw away his sleeves and walked out.

As he turned around, King Ande of Qi hurriedly raised his hand with the fish-scale wrist guard, and just as he was about to stop him, he quickly put it down and opened his lips to speak but stopped.

At this moment, two messengers in white robes came running to the door. They did not even stop when passing by King Fengling, and rushed straight to Xiao Tongyan.

"Princess, the Northern Qi Fengyi King and a white-haired old woman are here uninvited!"

When Prince Fengling heard this, he turned around with a smile and said, "Tsk, the Zheng family is here."

As expected, the leading Fengyi Prince Gao Run walked into the hall in a white robe. Beside him was a white-haired old woman in a brocade robe with a large falcon on her shoulder, and behind her followed several red-clad guards in armor.

Yuan Wuyou saw Yuan Tailao at a glance and was surprised.

When Prince Fengyi arrived, he first nodded and smiled at Prince Fengling, then bowed to the host, "I heard that the inheritance left by my grandmother to my cousin was looted here, so I came here to claim it on behalf of my cousin Zheng Xuannu."

Xiao Tongyan looked at Yuan Wuyou suspiciously, "Prince Feng Yi? Did you invite him? Who is the old woman behind?"

Prince Feng Yi spoke first, "If Princess Jiangxia no longer believes in my blood relationship with the Zheng family, do you want me to ask my mother, Concubine Feng Yi, to come here? I heard that Princess Jiangxia was at the scene when the Zheng Mansion was looted and Mulan City was massacred."

Xiao Tongyan's smile froze. "Of course not. Then please ask Prince Feng Yi to go to the back hall to get the goods." As she spoke, she glanced at Prince Xizhou who was sitting down. "My cousin, please lead the way for Prince Feng Yi."

So Xiao Qingzhi stood up and led the way for Prince Feng Yi, and the two of them went to the back hall.

As soon as Prince Feng Yi left, Grandma Yuan rushed to Yuan Wuyou and said, "My dear grandson, the Central Plains is full of wolves and tigers. Grandma is really worried!"

Yuan Wuyou was a little surprised. He was stunned when the old lady grabbed his wrist. "Grandma, why are you here? Didn't you go back to Shiwei?" The old lady sighed, "Last time, the Shiwei tribes were asking, why didn't the Lord of Huaxu go to Gaxian Cave to worship his ancestors after he succeeded to the throne? That's why I thought of taking you with me."

As she spoke, she swept her sharp eyes over the crowd, "The Central Plains is full of wolves, and your situation is difficult, but it's different with Shiwei. That's the Tuoba family's old base, Huaxu's northeastern enclave. Go home with grandma, we won't be bullied by these people anymore."

As soon as Grandmother Yuan appeared, she pointed out the problem in a subtle way, and asked Yuan Wuyou to use the excuse of going to Shiweiga Cave to worship the ancestors as an excuse to get away. But Yuan Wuyou was unwilling to fish in troubled waters and leave with nothing just when he was about to reap the harvest.

Therefore, Yuan Wuyou sighed and said, "Thank you grandma and the Shiwei tribes for your loyalty, but my grandson cannot leave now."

Grandmother Yuan suddenly let go of Yuan Wuyou's hand, her eyebrows sharp, her eagle eyes sparkling,
"Humph, isn't it just for those shameless boys who hooked up with you?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Wuyou was stunned, and several people from Qi State beside him looked at each other in confusion.

"Ever since the ancestors of the Tuoba family received the book from the Mysterious Lady and walked out of the cave, they have been more grateful to the Han family than the Han people who migrated south. They advocated and supported the orthodoxy of the Chinese nation. Now, hundreds of years later, their original intention has not changed. The Tuoba Xianbei even used the Chinese word Yuan as their surname, and their generations have been working hard for the revival of the Han Dynasty... and you!"

Grandmother Yuan suddenly raised her finger and pointed at her granddaughter's nose, looking very disappointed! "You are bewitched by male beauty and are holding back. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by our ancestors?"

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the clan grandsons turned against each other in an instant, shocking the guests so much that they didn't know what was going on.

Gao Yanzong was the first to stand up. "After all, the ancestor and the king are descendants of the clan—"

"——Shut up!" As soon as he opened his mouth, Yuan Tailao, who had an old and deep voice, directed her anger at Gao Yanzong. "You are the worst among all the male foxes!"

Gao Yanzong was so choked that he pursed his lips and dared not say a word.

Yuan Wuyou quickly turned around and stood in front of Gao Yanzong to block the accusations from his grandmother.

"Grandma, you accused me in public without knowing anything about me. I won't accept it! Since my mother passed away, I have been stranded in the Central Plains and have been unable to move around. Where was grandma at that time? I was not seduced by men. I just had nowhere to go and was taken in by Qi. Now that life has just gotten better, are you here to slander me, my benefactor?"

Grandma Yuan's expression softened a bit. "Grandma is not blaming you. I know that you need these experiences to grow. But I see that you are about to fall into deep trouble. I am afraid that you will be instigated by the vixen to become a puppet and a tyrant. I have to give you a hand."

The girl in the noble robe frowned, trying her best to suppress her sarcasm, and said calmly, "Grandma, I'm fine. If you came here just to say this, please go back."

"My grandson, your behavior as a tyrant really makes me feel sad. If your mother was still alive, you would be a carefree goddess, but you have no one to back you up. You can only move forward."

Yuan Wuyou gritted his teeth and said, "I won't leave. The battle of Xiangyang is imminent. Was grandma sent by the Zhou Kingdom to lure the tiger away from the mountain?"

Seeing the grandfather and grandson quarreling, no one dared to interrupt. Yu Wenzhi couldn't stand it anymore and stood up to stop them:

"Hey, hey, hey! If you two want to quarrel, go outside and quarrel. Don't you know that family disgrace should not be made public?" As he said that, he turned his head and said to Xiao Tongyan,
"Quickly release that kid from the Chi Luo family so that I can report to my superiors."

Xiao Tongyan immediately stood up and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, it's almost time anyway, I'll ask them to bring the people up. Come on——"

Following Princess Jiangxia's order, several white-robed soldiers stepped out from behind the pillars.
