A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 653: The Older Generation

Just then, a group of people came up from behind Yuan Wuyou.

A sharp voice came up and said:
"Oh, the queen is still struggling to decide which husband to choose?"

Yuan Wuyou looked back and saw a half-man in red and green with his clothes wide open walking out from the small courtyard on the other side of the moon-shaped gate.

She narrowed her eyes suddenly, "Yuan Yang? Why are you here?"

Behind Yuan Yang was a eunuch who looked like a tree stump. Behind these two men, one tall and one short, were Yuwen Huaibi and Yuwen Xiaobo, who were dressed in black shirts and brocade robes.

The eunuch jokingly said in a pinched voice: "I heard that Qi is using the beauty trap to snatch people again? I am afraid that my pure and innocent emperor will suffer."

"Puchi... Pure and innocent? Him?"

Facing her merciless contempt, Yuan Yang also sneered,
"That male fox is too frivolous and dissolute to be in the same position. Lanling Wang is too old. You can tell with your eyes closed that he should choose our Majesty."

Yuan Wuyou regarded Gao Changgong as a treasure, so how could he listen to their harsh provocation? He immediately retorted: "How can Lanling Wang be old? I see that he is more youthful than your emperor, and he is a hundred times more innocent than your emperor."

"He's a generation older than you, almost thirty years old. Isn't he old enough? I'm afraid he's lost his ability in bed."

Yuan Yang always spoke without restraint and in a dirty way, which made Yuan Wuyou's ears burn. She grabbed the Gan Jiang sword on her back and wished she could draw it and kill him!

"Stop your nonsense...you're full of filth!"

As the noise was going on here, suddenly, a guard's stern voice was heard from the gate not far away.

"Who is coming?"

"Prince Lanling of Northern Qi, Gao Changgong of Shandong."

"Prince Lanling? Hey! You can't go in!"

In an instant, Yuan Wuyou saw a tall red shadow running towards him.

When she got closer, she saw that the man in the red shirt had his hair tied up in a high ponytail and was not wearing a ghost mask. He appeared in front of her with his bright and handsome face.

"How did you come?"

The man ran up to her quickly, and stood there with a heroic and upright figure. He looked at her with a silly smile, as if no one was around.
"I missed you, so I came here."

"How are your injuries? Are you here to be a lobbyist?"

Gao Changgong shook his head shyly. "I don't want to influence your decision. I just want to see you one last time. It's because I was injured and incompetent that I failed to protect your property that I caused all this trouble..."

"So, you're not here to keep me?"

The man suddenly opened his dark phoenix eyes, his gaze firm. "I...I am."

He didn't even bother to argue or pretend he'd said something wrong, he just admitted it outright.

Yuan Wuyou was stunned by his straightforwardness, and then smiled helplessly.

"What if I don't go back with you? You just come to me like this, why should I go with you?" After hearing this, Gao Changgong's dark phoenix eyes became even more fixed, and he looked at her with pleading eyes, "I... I don't know how to make you change your mind. I just came here to tell you that I still love you. As long as you look back, you can see me. I have been waiting for you."

"When I have more people, can't you give me some benefits? It's like some people seduce me, that's faster."

Seeing that Lanling Wang Quan acted like a wooden stake in front of everyone and talked to the queen without paying attention to others, everyone in the Zhou State was furious.

The conversation between the two was interrupted by the tree stump, who looked up and stood on tiptoe to look at him: "This is the Northern Qi royal family, Lanling Prince? He does look old."

Seeing someone take the lead, Yuan Yang also joined in the fun.

"Although Prince Lanling is old, he is of a young generation. Regardless of whether it is according to the Zheng family or the Yuan family, he has to call the queen aunt." As he said this, he looked up at Gao Changgong.

"Haven't you severed your relationship with Empress Huaxu since you shot and injured Prince Fengling six years ago? You are so foolish and irresponsible, and you still want to eat young grass?"

Gao Changgong was choked for a moment when his scars and heart knot were revealed, and looked at Yuan Wuyou helplessly.

Shudunzi also attacked frantically at this time, his words becoming more and more fierce: "The queen is young and senior, and she will suffer a great loss if she stays with him. Lanling Wang is here to pay a visit to your aunt, right? Seeing that your aunt is well taken care of by the Great Zhou, you should rest assured and go back, right?"

Hearing this, Gao Changgong's pair of bright black eyes suddenly dimmed, and his long eyelashes drooped dejectedly.

Yuan Wuyou saw that he was feeling inferior, and hurried to his side, but raised his head and scolded them, "Enough! Your master hasn't spoken yet, is it your turn to speak rudely? Besides, who are you to dare to offend Lanling King with your words?"

Gao Changgong's eyes suddenly brightened when he heard this. He quickly raised his golden wristband to grab her sleeve and smiled gently.
"Don't be angry with them. I am indeed... old. They are not wrong."

Yuan Wuyou glared at Yuan Yang and the others even more fiercely, "Listen! He is so generous, how can you bear to bully him for no reason?"

Seeing this blind woman being deceived by Lanling Wang's pretending to be magnanimous and getting angry for the man's face, Yuan Yang was so angry that he jumped up and down! He turned around and complained to Yuwen Huaibi:
"Your Majesty, look at him! This old guy pretends to be magnanimous and stands behind a woman. This blind woman really likes this kind of scheming male fox who pretends to be obedient and weak!"

Yu Wen Huaibi, who had always been protective of his children, suddenly had cold eyes and directed his sharp gaze towards the man in red shirt and gold armor behind the black shirt girl.

"Gao Changgong, what qualifications do you have to come here to cause trouble? This is the territory of the Great Zhou. You are forcing your way into my territory, and you also want to forcibly seize my lover?"

Gao Changgong was immediately speechless.

"I! ... I..."

Seeing that he was speechless, Yuan Yang mocked him without hesitation, "Prince Lanling has nothing to say, so why are you imitating the sound of a goose?"

Yuwen Huaibi's sinister and cold eyes were still fixed on Gao Changgong, and then he said in a cold and calm voice:

"You pushed her to your brother. You were not the first person she loved, nor the first person she slept with. You were cowardly and incompetent, loyal and foolish. You couldn't protect her, but you stopped her from returning home for the order of the Emperor of Qi. You wanted to trap her in a foreign country, or even in the small space in the backyard of the palace. What were you thinking?"

Gao Changgong was forced into silence by his repeated questioning. He could only bite his lower lip, his black eyes stubborn.

Yuan Yang and others were dumbfounded. They realized at this moment that His Majesty was not a man of few words. Once he met people and things related to the Queen Mother, he could talk incessantly and kill people without shedding blood.

Moreover, no matter how foul my criticisms were just now, they were not as sharp as His Majesty's words.

Yuwen Huaibi sneered, and when he saw Gao Changgong's dark eyes moisten, he said something shocking - "The Lanling King, who is respected by all the people, is so despicable to a little girl, and so mean and cruel to the person he loves? Is your wife just your chess piece?"

Hearing this, the tall and strong Northern Qi warrior suddenly pursed his lips, stared with his black eyes, and tears rolled down his eye sockets.
