Chapter 658 This is the Oath
At this moment, the man in front of him suddenly asked:

"Does the condition for being your first husband require him to be a king of a country of equal status?"

This question made Yuan Wuyou confused.
"Hmm? What do you mean? Are you saying that the king is unreliable?"

Gao Changgong's eyebrows drooped, "No... I know myself well. I am not as noble as Lord Zhou, and I dare not compare myself to him. I just want to ask you, are you still willing to have me... a reckless man with no courage but no strategy whose parents have both passed away?"

Without waiting for her to answer, he added pathetically,

"I don't dare to compare myself with others, but as long as you choose me, I will do my best to learn... to be a virtuous and loyal wife."

"If you are willing to elope with me, I will of course marry you as my queen. Even if the world thinks you are heartless and cannot hold the position of the father of the country, I also think that since you can love the people like your own children and regard the soldiers under your command as brothers, you can naturally be a good father of the country."

"I...will you marry me only if I elope with you? Isn't it okay to just marry me in name only, without any interests involved?"

"It's not that I can't, it's that your king doesn't allow it. You can't disobey your king and country. Do you want me to marry you in the enemy's territory, walking on thin ice, worried and controlled by others?"

"Why do you think that I, Gao Changgong, cannot protect you and am not reliable, so you have never trusted me? I am loyal to the emperor and patriotic, but I am loyal to the Gao family. My parents are both dead, and my fifth brother, the emperor is one of the few relatives I have..."

Gao Changgong's tone became more and more intense and tough.

"I want to marry you because I feel that my wife is my most reliable family member. I want to build our own family, instead of relying on others and relying on the Gao family..."

His voice was sobbing, his eyes were affectionate, and he kept talking.

"When you said your home is my home, I already considered you as my first wife's family, but without three matchmakers and six certificates, it's just adultery and it's not recognized. I really want to have a home of my own..."

Yuan Wuyou didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He was shocked by his persistence and felt distressed for his rootlessness.

"My promise to you was true, but I am in an awkward situation now. I never wanted to give up on you, but between you and Huaxu... there is the Northern Zhou Dynasty."

"Even if my first wife is the ruler of a country and doesn't have much time and energy to love me, I will learn to share your worries."

Gao Changgong became more and more determined as he spoke, and now he said -

"Maybe I will be in trouble for the big country and small family, but if he wants to take my wife away, I will never give in. I finally understand that I should protect my own woman. I will protect you even if I die."

Yuan Wuyou suddenly realized that Gao Changgong's obsession with "getting married" was also to get rid of the Gao family. He longed to have a home of his own.

If he was born in Chang'an, he would have reason to defend his own country. A queen like him who is brave, good at fighting, sincere and kind, a kind-hearted god of war, would be enough to win the support of his subjects, even if she is not the traditional virtuous or scheming queen.

It's a pity that he is a relative of the royal family of another country, and Gao Wei has no grudge against her now. Or if she wanted to hold a grudge, she would not have to wait until now when someone forged documents and stole her seal and falsely conveyed her orders. She would have rebelled long ago when she was humiliated at the banquet and on the night Zhen Wenrou died.

But she didn't.

Gao Changgong finally realized that he should protect his woman himself instead of expecting others to respect her.

Thinking of this, Yuan Wuyou said calmly, "You insist on asking me for help just to get married and have a family? If someone else is actively trying to marry you, will you just leave?"

The man glared at her, "What are you talking about? If I wanted to get married, I would be with anyone, why would I wait for you... Why am I still unmarried and have no affair with other women?"

At this point, his dark phoenix eyes became colder and sadder.

"I just want to marry you. This is the mark you left in my heart. I don't care about your status. I only love you."

Yuan Wuyou pursed his lips and opened his mouth to speak but stopped.

Seeing her doubts, Gao Changgong knew that he was forcing her into marriage, but he was unwilling to give up and whispered:

"If you are still willing to love me, reconcile with me, fight side by side and form a perfect alliance... I, Gao Changgong, will never let you down." "I have said this to you many times before."

"I don't like to say those empty words. What I want to say is - if you return to Huaxu and want the whole world to be united, I will be your loyal minister and good general. My life is the last chess piece and sharp blade in your plan for the country. If you want Xuannu to be tempted and break the battle, I will take off my armor and return to the fields, and watch the candlelight with you."

In the evening, the setting sun in the sky looked like blood and gradually faded away.

The girl in front of him was wearing a black shirt and had a jade-like face. Her amber phoenix eyes were filled with a few rays of setting sun and were stained blood red.

But she smiled with her eyes slightly curved and her eyes shining brightly.

"It turns out that your words of love are so beautiful."

Gao Changgong felt warmed in his heart by her smile.

"Do you like it? These are my true thoughts. In this life, the only one who can break the battle song is the Lady of the Nine Heavens. I, Gao Changgong, do not believe in ghosts and gods, and I do not fight for the Hu and Han. The only country I respect and believe in is the Huaxu Kingdom."

He seldom talked in front of others, but during this period of time he talked a lot in front of her, almost saying everything he had ever said in his life, but it still felt not enough.

The man's long eyelashes trembled as he opened them, his dark phoenix eyes gleaming with determination. His tone was heavy, and it was like a plea... "Please... don't let Gao Changgong's Hua Xu be a dream, a dream that ends at the border, love that cannot be achieved and death with regrets."

"I love you too, Gao Changgong. I will trust you again."

"You once said that you can trust Yuan Wuyou forever. I promise today that Gao Changgong will only have you as his wife in this life, and you will never trust the wrong person..."

"Is this a pledge?"

"Yes. I will definitely go with you through the three matchmakers and six witnesses, worship the ancestors, and we will be married and love each other without a doubt."

Looking at the man's determined black eyes, Yuan Wuyou also put away his playful smile and said seriously,
"Do you know why I broke off all ties with your brother? Because he looks wild and unruly, but in fact he is a child with an umbilical cord around his neck and has not been weaned. He relies on the Gao family more than you do, and he doesn't even dare to elope with me."

She suddenly changed the subject, catching Gao Changgong off guard.

"Ah? Isn't it enough that he eloped with you?"

"Even though I caused such a scene at the Xiao family's Hongmen Banquet, he was still timid and only dared to talk about it, but he didn't dare to follow me. You didn't dare to leave because you couldn't bear to leave your soldiers and the people of Qi, but he couldn't bear to leave his comfortable life and wealth."

Gao Changgong listened and felt a little indignant for his brother.
"He has his reasons for doing this! Qi raised him and taught him all the skills that were built with gold and jade. He is such a spoiled nobleman, and we can't force him to be pushed into a battlefield where people are eaten. As his brother, I also want to raise him so that he can sleep peacefully for the rest of his life."

Yuan Wuyou felt disgusted when he heard his attitude of not wanting a wife when talking about his brother, so he simply took back what he had just said.

"If you want to marry me, I hope you will swear to give your life to me, to Hua Xu. One day I will unify the world and recover the lost territory."

Having said this, she raised her eyebrows and said proudly,

"You know that Gao Wei and I have no grudge against each other and we get along well. I will not embarrass the Gao family. I will not take your life, nor will I stop you from pleading for the people. I hope you will give me your life because I want to use the name of my wife and the power of Hua Xu to protect you, my queen, the father of a country."

"Even if I don't say this, I have thought about it. As long as you don't become an enemy of the Gao family, even if you go to Chang'an to seize the throne, I am willing to bring my private soldiers to help you."

Originally, she thought that Gao Changgong's promise in the morning to elope with her after faking his own death was enough to go against his original intention and be a heretic. Yuan Wuyou never expected that he would actually say that he would use his private soldiers to help her force the emperor to abdicate?
Yuan Wuyou suddenly widened his brown eyes in surprise.

"How could you ignore the Gao family and take this step?"

Gao Changgong's eyebrows were sharp, and his dark pupils suddenly glared at him, "My private soldiers are only mine. If you get married, they will also be yours, and will not belong to Da Qi or the Gao family."

△Suddenly I found that the female-oriented stories have loosened up a lot recently, and they dare to directly label multiple male protagonists. I am bad at being a clean water, and I can only talk about a famous and real male protagonist after more than one million words. But I dare not play with fire again, this scale is so stable.

△After all, this GB little book really has a male Shufen, so it has to write something that is presentable, has a positive outlook, and won't be destroyed by a crackdown.
△Thanks to Brother Fox for the monthly ticket support!! I am a newbie, and I still don’t understand how to get the monthly ticket. This gift is too precious to me. I haven’t even got one (wiping tears silently)
