A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

Chapter 656 Ex-husband is jealous
Yuwen Huaibi had never enjoyed love since he was a child, nor did he understand love. The love of the current empress for him and her daughter made him feel the warmth of parental and sibling love for the first time. Although he was going to be a child husband and lived under someone else's roof, it was already heaven compared to his past experiences.

His elder brother and his elder sister were a loving couple. His elder brother did not want to be the emperor, but only wanted to be with his elder sister forever. Later, his elder brother became the emperor, and still only loved Empress Dugu. Yuwen Huaibi sometimes fantasized that if she ascended the throne in Huaxu, would she also only love him?
Later, he became a puppet emperor, made his child bride the queen, and lied that the child left by his brother and sister-in-law was hers.

When Yuwen Huaibi saw Yuan Wuyou again, he was immediately attracted by this confident, bright, and generous girl. He loved her temperament. She was a daughter who had been pampered since childhood, valued by the family, and was born to inherit the throne. She had no brothers and sisters, but brothers and sisters of different surnames surrounded her and praised her...

But she was extremely talented, talented in both civil and military affairs, and had her own opinions. Even though she was raised by her mother, she was strong and unwilling to be inferior to others, and she only married but never married. If it were another man, he would probably shake his head and walk away, but in Yuwen Huaibi's eyes, he loved her arrogance and her superiority and looking down on everything.

Therefore, Yuwen Huaibi could not love the former queen who was a captive maid, and he also hated her for being an accomplice to the evil and forcing him to consummate the marriage. She was born in a humble family like him, a concubine, cruel and ruthless, but pretending to be kind and gentle, so when he faced her, it was like looking in a mirror. A person who crawled out of the sewer swamp hated facing the unbearable past the most...

In fact, Yuwen Huaibi also envied the current queen, who was a beloved Turkic princess, passionate about riding and archery, and was about the same age as Yuan Wuyou. However, she was not like Princess Huaxu, with whom he had been in love since childhood. She looked down on him and resented the political marriage. She was even obsessed with Prince Huaxu, Prince Fengling, who rescued her from Jinyong City. Even though she knew that Prince Huaxu was a girl, she was willing to do it, and even disparaged Yuwen Huaibi as not being worthy of Empress Huaxu.

Yuwen Huaibi finally realized that among the women in the palace, those who loved him were the ones who huddled together for warmth, while those who didn't love him were more like the girl he loved.

After watching her being seduced away by Lanling Wang, Yuwen Xiaobo quietly asked the emperor in front of him, "Your Majesty, that woman is now bewitched by the Gao brothers. Do you plan to break them up or let them go?"

"I don't know..."

"Alas, I have something to say for a long time. She has become your deserter and has gone to be someone else's hero. Why force a cow to drink water? In this world, there are many women who love you besides her. It doesn't matter whether Chang'an has her or not."

"It's different. She can control the situation. She is fighting for power with men! Even if she is a girl, it's a good thing that she is a girl. There is still a chance to marry her."

"But even though she doesn't want to get married, she doesn't lack a husband. If she doesn't like you, no one can force her to do it. If she likes you, she will definitely come back to work for you, even if it means confronting Lanling King."

"I don't believe that she will ignore her old feelings for me."

***
After Gao Changgong coaxed her out of Bowangguan Inn and reunited with his fifth brother who was waiting at the door, the girl started to look cold.

He gradually realized that she didn't talk to him, so he left his brother behind and didn't talk to him, and couldn't help but say:

"You two are too scary, can you please talk? Even if you curse at me?"

Yuan Wuyou said with a sour face, "He doesn't dare, and neither do I, for fear that my ex-husband will get jealous."

"I'm not jealous."

"Oh, you're not jealous? That means you still don't love me, otherwise how could you not be jealous? I've never seen someone so magnanimous as you."

Unexpectedly, his words stirred up a hornet's nest. The girl kept talking like a string of beads, full of resentment, which allowed Gao Changgong to find the cause of the problem.

Gao Changgong could only smile bitterly, "I love you and I am jealous, but I can't show my jealousy to my brother, right?" Yuan Wuyou was speechless, "Okay, since we have already left the Zhou Kingdom, don't send us off, let's go back to our own homes."

Seeing her twisting her waist and trying to walk in the opposite direction, Gao Changgong quickly reached out and pulled her wrist: "Hey! Wait... Come home with me."

Seeing the brother and sister-in-law in front of him arguing over him, Gao Yanzong, who was following behind them, naturally understood and decisively walked in the opposite direction.

"What's your reply?" Yuan Wuyou's eyebrows were sharp and his eyes were fierce.

"I've seen through it all. None of you men truly love me. You all want to get something from me. You all have your own agenda. I will always be a dowry for power. Don't even mention me as your first choice when something happens. As long as I'm not going to kill you, you don't want to choose me."

Gao Changgong was so upset about being wronged, "What are you talking about? I, Gao Changgong, have absolutely no intentions towards you! No matter when or where, I will always firmly choose you!"

"Are you serious? Who shot an arrow at me outside Bowang City?"

When she was mean, she was really sharp. Gao Changgong had only two things in his life that he felt guilty about: the battle in Luoyang, and the shooting of his fiancée outside Bowang City some time ago. She was involved in both.

"I... I didn't know it was you at that time. I was wrong. If you trust me once, I will repay you with my whole life... I, Gao Changgong, swear that I have long regarded you as my first wife and relative. You are really the only one I have..." After a pause, Gao Changgong's eyes suddenly became firm.

"I want to marry you, and the king has agreed."

Yuan Wuyou narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Your king asked you to marry me and let me stay in Qi, is that right?"

"Is not it good?"

"Do you know why I had a falling out with Yuwen Huaibi? Because he forced me to be the queen, forced me to marry him with power, and let him suck my blood and use me. Do you want to force me too?"

"He has promised you the throne of the mother of a country, so how could you treat the King of Zhou like that? You have tried so hard to go back and fight for power, but now you have wasted your efforts."

"He forced me to be the queen. I will only be a puppet if I go back with such an empty title. I will never marry anyone," she stared at Gao Changgong. "You too, do you know why I was angry a few days ago that the Lord of Qi forced me to accept and marry you? He forced me to marry you. You may think it's okay. It doesn't matter who marries whom, but the fact that you think it's okay is the biggest problem."

Gao Changgong was a little dizzy with all the "questions" in the sky.

The man bit his lip in embarrassment and said with difficulty, "I am not worthy of you. You are the king of a country, and I am just a prince of the royal family whose parents are both dead and who lives on others..."

"That's not the point. It's that I can't marry."

Yuan Wuyou interrupted his self-pitying words, but was afraid that he didn't understand, so he had to organize his words and think about how to analyze and explain them to him.
