A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 639 Chang Gong loves cakes
When Gao Changgong arrived, Yuan Wuyou realized that there really were two men in the world who could be so harmonious.

Gao Yanzong, who was originally sleeping sickly and had no real love for her, became lively in front of Gao Changgong. He would act coquettishly and throw tantrums, and was well-behaved and obedient.

His undisguised dependence on Gao Changgong was a kind of security that he had never released on Yuan Wuyou, which made him feel at ease from the bottom of his heart.

It turned out that Gao Yanzong's awkwardness could be cured with a kiss. If he continued to resist, his brother would have to come over.

So the three of them gathered at the table to eat.

Gao Changgong took off his ghost mask and opened the tiered food box basket on the table. Inside was a layer of pancakes and a can of mutton soup, with a roast chicken on the top layer.

Yuan Wuyou was surprised: "Chang Gong, I found that you really like eating cakes."

Gao Changgong nodded in agreement, "I was born in Yecheng, Hebei, and my fiefdom was in Lanling, Shandong, both places where people eat cakes."

Gao Yanzong smiled and said, "I was saying that. It's a good thing that Fourth Brother was not born in Jiangnan. He shouldn't marry into the Southern Dynasty. People in the Southern Dynasty eat rice, but he likes to eat noodles. He can get used to the coarse millet in the army, but he can't get used to the fine grains from paddy fields in the South. I'm afraid he will be starving and weak after a few days of marriage."

After being exposed by his younger brother, the fourth brother said awkwardly, "I'm not used to it, but I'm not picky about food. I'll eat whatever is available."

Yuan Wuyou nodded, "You are easy to support."

Gao Yanzong's peach blossom eyes suddenly raised, and he said jokingly:

"When I was little, girls always asked me how to marry my fourth brother. I always told them that all they had to do was know how to make cakes. They didn't have to approach him deliberately, he would come when he smelled the cakes."

Gao Changgong looked embarrassed, "How could I..."

Yuan Wuyou's eyes were teasing, "Now that you've said that, I want to learn how to make pancakes. What's the difference between Shandong and Hebei pancakes? Do you prefer baked or roasted ones? Leavened or unleavened ones?"

"I'm not picky. I just think that pancakes are easy to make, store and carry, and are eaten by everyone, from the rich to the poor. It's just that Yecheng likes to wrap donkey meat and stuff eggs in it, while Lanling puts onions and garlic in it."

"It sounds quite appetizing to me. Don't you eat ginger?"

"Who is a good person who eats ginger..."

I didn't expect that Gao Changgong, such a tall and strong general, didn't like to eat ginger? Yuan Wuyou smiled, "Ginger warms the body. You really don't need to replenish your heat."

"I have a good temper and I don't get angry."

"I'm not talking about temper."

Gao Changgong realized it later, and his chest felt tight. He gave her a warning look, "Don't let your imagination run wild."

Then he felt that he had overreacted, so he softened his tone and gently advised her, "I have never thought about doing anything with a woman in all these years, and I have never been angry everywhere. I am so tired of fighting that I don't care about anything else. I don't have those evil thoughts, and you are not allowed to tease me."

"You seem to be trying to cover up something."

Gao Yanzong coughed lightly, "As a man, it's normal to entertain yourself..."

Before he could finish his words, he received a glare from his brother.

Gao Changgong blushed and gritted his teeth to retort, "No, don't slander me, you mean-spirited person! Do you still want to eat?"

Although he was angry, he still used chopsticks to hand her and her brother a piece of pancake each, huffing.

"You two hurry up and eat. I'll make a sample first."

As he said this, he stuffed the cake into his mouth. His rosy lips and pearly teeth bit down on the cake, leaving a neat cross-section on it.

Watching Gao Changgong eat is a pleasure.

He has red lips and white teeth, and looks handsome and dignified. His facial features are not childish, but when combined together, his face looks full of youthfulness. He bites the cake and drinks the soup, eating in a relaxed and casual manner, yet dignified and elegant.

Naive and well-behaved.

Yuan Wuyou stared at his face in a daze.

Gao Changgong frowned and handed her the biscuit he had just bitten off.
"Do you want to eat my piece?"

"I want to eat you."

"…Eat, don't talk while eating, don't talk while sleeping."

"When will you sleep with me?"

"When I finish this battle, I will report to the emperor and take you back to Lanling to get married. You also promised to take me to the Shiwei Gaxian Cave to worship our ancestors."

"…Okay, okay, I'll wait for you all to get what you want."

Gao Yanzong, who was standing by, heard the two people flirting and said nothing. He just lowered his head and silently stuffed the cake into his brother's hand. Yuan Wuyou broke the cake and soaked it in the mutton soup.

Gao Changgong saw this and said in surprise,

"Wuyouer, is this the way Hexi eats it?"

"No, I can't swallow dry pancakes."

Seeing the girl's sincere and honest face, Gao Changgong smiled and began to break the bread and throw it into the soup bowl.

"This is a clever way to eat it. I'll try it too."

Yuan Wuyou suddenly realized that it seemed that she always felt relaxed and happy when she was with Gao Changgong. It was not because she was easy to get along with, but because Gao Changgong was too easy-going and caring. But he was not deliberately trying to please her, but accompanying her in a subtle and silent way.

If I marry him, I will probably never be willing to leave him and won't be used to it in this life.

Seeing the two brothers getting along harmoniously, after eating either lunch or dinner, Yuan Wuyou was even sensible enough to ask Gao Changgong if he wanted to go to the bed in the inner room to rest. Gao Yanzong was also catching up on his sleep, so she would not disturb the two brothers.

Gao Changgong's dark phoenix eyes stared at her with worry. "What about you? Wherever you rest, I will be by your side to accompany you."

Seeing him so well-behaved and considerate, Yuan Wuyou couldn't help but sigh,

"It would be nice if you could just go along with me on big things."

"As long as it does not involve the interests of Da Qi, I will try my best to listen to you."

"Then I'm afraid it won't be a big deal."

"..."

Seeing that his brother and sister-in-law were still so considerate of each other and had no grudges against each other, Gao Yanzong took the initiative to say that he had had enough sleep and wanted to go outside to read, leaving the inner room to his brother and sister-in-law.

After saying this, he stood up from the dining table, picked up his cloth socks and hard-soled military boots at the foot of the bed, took a step forward with his long legs, hurriedly used his head to push open the bamboo curtain separating the inner room and the outer hall, and went out.

When Gao Yanzong hated her the most and didn't love her, he didn't hesitate to seduce her with his body and alienate her from her brother. But now, when he loves her the most, he takes the initiative to give up his position and bring her and her brother together.

In the most distant year, the 14-year-old naughty member of the royal family Mingming bravely rescued a girl who fell into the water, but was afraid of getting into trouble so he reported his brother's name, causing his brother to replace him as the fiancé of the crown prince of the Western Wei Dynasty.

He had been missing out all his life and running in the opposite direction.

Yuan Wuyou felt that he was so awkward, which made her very depressed. Looking back and seeing Gao Changgong's surprised black eyes, she felt even more speechless.

"Well...I'll go sleep outside. I'm not used to sleeping with others. I'll go call him back."

As he spoke, the man suddenly stood up from the dinner table. His physique, with broad shoulders and narrow waist and the appearance of a military commander wearing a military uniform, instantly occupied her entire sight.

Yuan Wuyou quickly stopped him and said, "Don't be so modest. I'm going to read outside too. You can rest in the house."

"what?"

She said it in a hurry without thinking carefully, but Gao Changgong misunderstood and thought that the two of them wanted to go outside to be alone, so he agreed without hesitation.

The room Xiao Tongyan arranged for her was a wing room. As soon as she entered the door, she saw an outer hall for receiving guests, and a study was separated by a wooden partition moon door. There was a door between the outer hall and the study, which was blocked by a bamboo curtain, and inside was the inner room.

When Yuan Wuyou went out to take a look, he immediately saw a figure with a ponytail and a red shirt sitting in the moon-shaped door of the study on the left.

He was holding a book of some kind in his hand and was reading it intently.

She walked closer to him curiously and glanced at the content on the page. It was the sentence "Do not let anyone take away your power. Follow its wisdom and follow its nature. Follow it with virtue and eliminate those who go against it with force."

The sentence sounded familiar, but Yuan Wuyou couldn't put it into context for a moment, so he put his hand on the back of Gao Yanzong's chair in a familiar manner, and using the man's hand holding the book, he read from right to left and from beginning to end.

The first sentence I saw was "Wen Tao: Defending the Territory".

Therefore, a ruler should be devoted to enrichment. Without enrichment, he cannot be benevolent. Without charity, he cannot unite his relatives. If he alienates his relatives, he will suffer. If he loses his people, he will fail.

King Wen asked, "What is benevolence and righteousness?"

Tai Gong said: "Respect the masses and unite the relatives. Respect the masses and there will be harmony, unite the relatives and there will be joy. This is called the discipline of benevolence and righteousness."

Ever since he saw "文韬守土", Yuan Wuyou recognized that this was the "Six Strategies" in which Jiang Taigong and King Wen talked. If "The Art of War" is a must-read book for generals, then "Six Strategies" is a must-read book for emperors, a strategy for governing the country, pacifying the people and bringing peace to the world.

Wow! Gao Yanzong took a fancy to Jiang Taigong's "Six Strategies" Yuan Wuyou was not shocked, but Xiao Tongyan actually had this book on his bookshelf, and it was placed in a bright position, allowing Gao Yanzong to easily obtain it. He must have read it a lot.

This girl must not stay for long! Xiao Tongyan has the aura of a goddess.

Thanks to Brother Fox for the monthly ticket and recommendation ticket~ I will add more on the same day! I hope it won't be stuck.
