After Jiaojiao got pregnant, her husband who died in the war came back

Yuwen Yuan looked insignificant, and the royal family members thought he was worthless, but no one knew that he could beat someone to death with his fists.

Half a month later, the confinement was lifted and Yuwen Cheng died of illness.

As soon as he got out of the dungeon, Yu Wenyuan hurried back to take a shower and clean himself up.

After waiting for three days, he finally met Pei Muyao.

After not seeing her for such a long time, he thought she must be going crazy looking for him.

But when their eyes met, he actually saw alienation in her eyes.

Pei Muyao looked at him coldly, "Has your confinement been lifted?"

Yu Wenyuan's heart skipped a beat, and a hint of unnaturalness flashed across his eyes. "You know everything?"

He wanted to explain, but when he met Pei Muyao's complicated eyes, he suddenly felt something stuck in his throat.

Fear, disgust, and aversion deeply hurt Yu Wenyuan's heart.

He didn't expect that she would become like everyone else.

Thinking of this, he sneered at himself, "Do you think I did it?"

Yu Wenyuan thought to himself that as long as she believed in him a little, even just a little, he would be willing to explain it to her.

But the next second, Pei Muyao's words made him feel like he was falling into an icy cave.

"You make me sick."

*

After that day, Pei Muyao never looked for Yu Wenyuan again.

Yu Wenyuan had seen her standing with the young man from an aristocratic family. They were a perfect match, both talented and beautiful, with similar family backgrounds.

As expected, no one really cares about him.

He was abandoned again.

*

Three months later, Yuwen Yuan heard that she was engaged.

That night, he drank a pot of wine and felt like a joke.

Then, it was the Queen’s birthday banquet.

He hid in the dark and heard the fourth prince Zhao Mian say viciously: "Is Pei Muyao blind? She actually chose that poor scholar instead of me. Damn it, I must take her down."

Zhao Mian took out the medicine powder and wanted his servants to drug Pei Muyao, taking the opportunity to destroy her innocence.

Yuwen Yuan listened to all this and restrained his hand from taking any action. What did he care about the ruin of such an unfaithful woman's reputation?

But later, he couldn't help it, and secretly knocked out the person who drugged him, and watched Pei Muyao leave side by side with her fiancé.

*

Half a year later, Yuwen Yuan accidentally heard that Pei Muyao had broken off her engagement with her fiancé.

He didn't care why, because at this moment, news came from Daxia that his father had suddenly passed away due to illness.

He knew that his chance had come.

*

When the ruler of Daxia died, of course all his sons had to go back.

The problem is that Daxia has no crown prince.

Therefore, a fight between the princes was inevitable.

However, no one expected that the one who broke out of the siege was the most inconspicuous proton at the time - Yuwen Yuan.

It turned out that he had been dispatching troops and making plans during all these years of obscurity, and even his agreement to go to Zhao State as a hostage was to hide his incompetence.

Since no one cares about him, no one will pay attention to the little tricks he does behind his back.

Who said that he spoke out just to be abandoned? He wanted to show the world what it means to turn the tide against the odds.

After Yuwen Yuan came to power, he used drastic measures to revamp the court.

Within three years, he had Daxia in perfect order.

At that time, Daxia was a prosperous country. Although there was still a gap compared to Zhao, if they were really compared, they could still compete.

The tradition of Daxia has always been to value culture over military affairs. When it came to Yuwen Yuan, he changed that and devoted all his efforts to training military generals and building a line of defense on the border.

At this time, generals such as Pei Jingyi and Lu Beixiao had reached the age of retirement and returned to their hometowns one after another. The young generation was in a period of transition, and they were gradually surpassed by Daxia in momentum.

Who could have thought that in the court, things could change so quickly and a single word could make a difference.

As time went on, the situation between Zhao and Daxia became increasingly tense.

In order to avoid war, the two countries held peace talks again after 20 years.

But peace talks are not that easy. When monarchs meet, what if there is a bad guy among them who takes the opportunity to kill the monarch?

So the two countries agreed to send each other a hostage.

The State of Zhao wanted the Grand General of the Palace from Daxia, while Daxia wanted Pei Muyao.

From Daxia's perspective, there are reasons to do so.

Pei Muyao is Pei Jingyi's only daughter. With her in his hands, Pei Jingyi has to think twice even if he wants to take action.

But Pei Jingyi didn't think so. Wanting his daughter was really giving him face!

Pei Jingyi was so angry that he almost swore, "It doesn't matter, with Dad here, no one can force you to do something you don't like. Don't look at Dad's age, he is definitely not inferior to the young people on the battlefield, if not, then start a war."

Having said that, looking at the white hair on his head, Pei Muyao still felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

Moreover, she knew that Pei Jingyi's words were just spoken in anger.

He had personally created this peaceful and prosperous era, and he desired peace more than anyone else.

She calmed down and said, "It's okay, I'll go."

Pei Jingyi said without hesitation: "No, Yuwenyuan must have bad intentions. It's better for me to go than for you to go!"

Pei Muyao was amused by Pei Jingyi's words, "Dad, if he wants to do something to me, he won't do it so violently, don't worry."

*

In the end, it was Pei Muyao who went.

She was reluctant to let her elderly father go to the battlefield, and she didn't want to see so many lives destroyed. As long as there was a chance, she wanted to try.

Great Summer Barracks.

Today is the day Pei Muyao comes over. Yu Wenyuan has been sitting here since early morning, with a sachet in his hand that he has polished until it fades.

Seeing him waiting motionlessly, the guard reminded him from the side, "Your Majesty, Miss Pei hasn't come yet at this time. Maybe she has just had lunch. You should eat early as well."

Yu Wenyuan glared at him after hearing this, "Who said I was waiting for her? Can't you see I'm handling official business? Get out, all of you get out."

After hearing this, the guard glanced at the memorial that had not been turned over a page since morning and retreated silently.

After everyone left, Yuwen Yuan picked up the sachet at hand, put it under his nose and sniffed it hard, then decided to concentrate on dealing with some government affairs.

At this moment, the door of the tent was pushed open.

Yu Wenyuan frowned and said impatiently: "Didn't I tell you to get out now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he happened to look up and met Pei Muyao's pair of familiar yet unfamiliar eyes.

Yu Wenyuan's hands trembled and he quickly threw the sachet under the table.

Pei Muyao bowed slightly, and when she looked up again, she said with a teasing look on her lips, "I haven't seen you for a few years, and your temper has improved."

Yuwen Yuan was stunned at first, but then he quickly reacted and said angrily: "How dare you! You didn't even greet me properly and you still dare to speak like that? Who gave you the courage?"

Pei Muyao stopped smiling after hearing this and knelt down in an orderly manner.

The ground was uneven and Pei Muyao was delicate, so she frowned before she even knelt.

Yu Wenyuan took one look and then looked away. Although he felt very sad in his heart, he did not show it on his face.

He waved his hands unhappily and said, "Alright, if you don't want to kneel, then don't kneel. Who are you trying to show your bitter face to?"

After saying that, he called out to the people outside, "I'm starving, serve some food!"
