A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 647 Sunset and Reappearance
The thick and dense black clouds cracked open a few cracks, and the sun broke free a little from its cage, emitting orange light.

The sun sets and dusk is approaching.

Yuan Wuyou had just entered Bowang City through the west gate and was walking towards the inn with Gao Yanzong, who was holding the baby in his arms. However, he saw a group of masked men walking towards him on the long street.

The guy in the lead was tall and long-legged. He wore a fitted crimson round-necked robe and a black iron mask on his face.

He suddenly raised his legs and walked over with neat steps.

"We meet again, King Fengling."

Yuan Wuyou recognized who it was as soon as he took one look at his crowded eyes.

"Weituohua? I should call you——"

"Chongming."

As he spoke, the man walked up to her.

A rich, sweet floral scent suddenly wafted into his nostrils, inexplicably familiar, but Yuan Wuyou didn't look closely, nor did he dare to think about what flower the scent came from.

"Chongming, you're here at this time. Aren't you afraid that the Zhou government soldiers patrolling the streets will find you?"

Chongming chuckled from beneath his mask.

"Since I can enter the city, I am naturally not afraid of the soldiers. The man next to Your Highness..." As he spoke, Chongming's eyes fell on the man in red shirt next to her. His four pupils stared at Gao Yanzong in unison, making his scalp numb.

"Is it your Highness's mistress? She has a child? I've never heard of your Highness having a secret pregnancy with any other man."

Yuan Wuyou retorted in a deep voice, "This child is not ours, so don't ask about it. I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave first." As he said that, he grabbed Gao Yanzong's hand and walked away.

Chongming suddenly called out, "Your Highness Prince Ande is very graceful and elegant. I feel like we have known each other for a long time. Would you be so kind as to teach me a few things?"

When Yuan Wuyou heard him calling him "King Ande" directly, he felt something was wrong.

She looked up and saw Chongming looking at Gao Yanzong with admiration. She immediately became alert, "You are not a homosexual, are you?"

"Your Highness, you are joking. Even if I really like men, King Ande will not give me a chance. Don't you have this much confidence? I just want to ask King Ande about some matters between men. Your Highness, please go and do your work first."

Yuan Wuyou looked at Gao Yanzong, but he didn't expect the man to smile teasingly, "Go ahead, I want to see what he wants to do."

"Then you should be careful and go back to Qi State through the East Gate by yourself."

Gao Yanzong nodded.

After she walked away, Gao Yanzong stopped smiling and looked at the man in front of him with sharp eyes.

But because he was holding the baby in his arms, even his fiercest eyes were given a hint of the gentleness and coquettishness of a husband.

"What are you doing here again? To cause trouble?"

Chongming's eyebrows were arrogant. "Your Highness is really resourceful. Six years ago, you caused her to fail in Luoyang. Now you can bewitch her into a deep trap and make her protect you in public. I admire you and just want to learn from you."

"You'd better ask for advice. Tell me, what is it?"

"Your Highness is naturally gifted with the world of romance, can you teach me how to court a girl?"

"Well, she's just average. What kind of girl is she?"

"Lord Huaxu. I heard that Your Highness is very close to her."

Gao Yanzong's eyes widened. "Since you know her identity, don't you know something else?"

"I heard that you two had an affair, and you were her concubine." If Gao Yanzong were to use his rationality and expediency, he would definitely distance himself from the relationship and say that the two of them had nothing to do with each other. At most, he would mention that she almost became his sister-in-law.

But Gao Yanzong's throat was choked at the moment, and he could not utter any euphemistic words. He could only say in a low and hoarse voice:
"You still dare to pursue her even though you know this? Then all this time I have been pursuing her has been in vain?"

"But I like her. I am even more excited to see that she has had a man, because that means she is not unconquerable. If you can get a chance, then so can I. Everyone knows that King Ande used her. Is Your Highness more interested in trying to curry favor with a rich and powerful man, or is it because of feelings?"

Gao Yanzong realized belatedly that he was testing him.

His stomach suddenly felt churning and he felt nauseous and couldn't swallow anything. He stuffed the baby in the cradle into Chongming's arms, turned around and vomited while holding onto the tree trunk.

Chongming was at a loss, holding the baby in one hand. Seeing King Ande vomiting heartbreakingly, his eyes turned cold. He reached out to help Gao Yanzong, but he was brushed away by him.

Chongming was not annoyed and just said calmly:
"Your Highness has studied medicine, right? Please take your pulse."

Gao Yanzong shook his head, "My wrist is injured and I can't feel your pulse."

"Whether it was an accident or intentional, Your Highness knows it very well. I heard that the two Fengling princes fought a few days ago. They were born to the two men of the Western Wei Empress. Your Highness really doesn't want the father to rely on his daughter for his status?"

"… Stop talking nonsense."

Gao Yanzong actually didn't want to get pregnant, at least most of the time he was very resistant and afraid. But sometimes, especially in front of her, he would always get carried away and give her his life, not to mention giving birth to a child for her.

His feelings for her became increasingly hopeless. He tested her many times to see if she loved him and tried to give up on her, but the result was always that she was sincere to him and his heart could not escape from her; he just loved her.

But now he didn't want to, and didn't dare to let her know about the abnormality of his body. He just wanted to love her purely and secretly. If outsiders knew that he was serious, they would use him to harm her.

——And the other end.

Looking at the gate of the inn, Yuan Wuyou suddenly recalled the meaning of Wei Tuohua's words and the fragrance on his body. It seemed to be the fragrance of camellia, which was very similar to that of Gao Yanzong! No wonder she felt that the fragrance was familiar?

Yuan Wuyou suddenly realized that Wei Tuohua had secret dealings with Gao Yanzong. Considering his power and reputation in Chishui, she guessed that Gao Yanzong's fake identity, which was well-documented in Chishui six years ago, was fabricated by him.

Oh no! These two have been colluding for a long time!
Yuan Wuyou returned to the inn with a heavy heart, fearing that the Zhou people were still waiting in the main hall to force her to accept the amnesty, so she bypassed the main hall and went straight to the main hall.

When I entered the main hall, I saw that the boxes were sorted by category and sealed with corresponding valuable items, but there was a row of people standing there.

Jialuo stood holding a sword, and Yu Taishou stood leaning on a box, while a Xianbei man with a jade-faced man holding a sword stood with his hands behind his back, facing the door and looking into the distance.

As soon as they saw Yuan Wuyou coming back, the jade-faced man was the first to greet him.

"Come home with me. Your relatives are all in Chang'an."

Yuan Wuyou raised his hand to block his approach and walked inside.

"No, there are only puppets, tombstones and corpses in Chang'an."

As she spoke, she waved at the two of them, "The carriage is ready, Governor Yu, call your soldiers to move it, and the batch to be sent back to the Zheng family will be handed over to the Qi soldiers outside the east gate."

The man in black followed her and stood by the wall after she finished giving her instructions, watching the Xiangyang soldiers pouring into the house and people coming and going.

Yuwen Huaibi still held his temper, ignoring the crowd around him, and whispered, "The Gao brothers have all abandoned you, what else do you have to cherish about Qi?"

Yuan Wuyou suddenly raised his eyes and stared at the jade-faced man in front of him with a frown.

"Did I say go find them? In that case, I really am going to find them."

He didn't expect that what he said would be used as a provocation, and he was being used as an accomplice. The pair of gray-blue phoenix eyes under Yuwen Huai's jade face glared at him!
"What's so good about being outside? Those two wild flowers are the hooks set by Northern Qi. Do you really want to be a tyrant?"

Yuan Wuyou couldn't help but cross his arms, narrowing his amber eyes and glancing at the gray-blue eyes of the man beside him. "Yuwen Huaibi, this is not something you should ask."
