Quickly Transmigrate to Save the Child of Heaven
Chapter 240 Dugu Tianxia 7
On the day of Prajna and Yuwen Yu's wedding, Yuwen Yong brought Mantuo to the wedding. Yuwen Yong helped entertain the guests, while Mantuo, bored, asked the maid to bring her snacks and ate them while daydreaming. Then Jialuo came over and asked, "Second sister, why are you so estranged from me, Dad, and my sister?"
Mantuo looked up at Jialuo, a hint of indifference flashed in his eyes, but he still replied: "I'm just a little bored."
Jialuo walked over to Mantuo and sat down, looking at her with concern: "Second sister, we are all family. You make me very worried."
Mantuo sneered: "Family? Haha, ever since I can remember, I know that I am different from you."
Jialuo asked in confusion: "Why are we different? We are both daughters of the Dugu family."
A trace of pain flashed in Mantuo's eyes. She said, "You have been learning music, chess, calligraphy and painting since childhood, and you have a comfortable life. But what about me? I can only work with my wet nurse to fill my stomach. At home, the servants have never treated me as a real Second Young Lady."
Jialuo lowered her head guiltily: "I don't know..."
Mando continued, "With my father's indifference and my eldest sister's indulgence, it's not easy for me to survive until now."
Jialuo held Mantuo's hand and said sincerely, "Second sister, I'm sorry. We were negligent. I will definitely take better care of you in the future."
Mantuo shook off Jialuo's hand and said coldly, "No need. I don't need your sympathy. I just hope that from now on, no one will disturb my life anymore." After that, Mantuo stood up and left without looking back. Jialuo was left sitting there alone, feeling full of self-blame and helplessness.
Mantuo had just taken a few steps when someone suddenly grabbed her hand from behind and dragged her into a room. Then, the person eagerly kissed her. Mantuo looked closely and saw it was Yuwen Hu. Overjoyed, she hugged him tightly around the waist, a beaming smile spreading across her face.
Yuwen Hu grumbled softly, "Baby, you're so cruel! Don't you miss me at all..." Then, he hugged Mantuo and poured out his longing and grievances to her. Mantuo lifted Yuwen Hu's chin with her finger and asked playfully, "Is the Grand Tutor jealous because my eldest sister is getting married?"
After hearing this, Yuwen Hu couldn't help laughing. He gently pinched Mantuo's nose and said, "I only like you, not Prajna at all! You little jealous girl!"
Mantuo's lips curled up slightly, revealing a wicked smile. She offered her sweet lips to Yuwen Hu and kissed him passionately. After making love, Yuwen Hu carefully helped Mantuo put on her clothes and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead, whispering, "It's almost there!" Mantuo was slightly startled, then understood what he meant and smiled in response, "Yes! I hope you can treat our son better in the future, and treat me well too!" As she spoke, she gently stroked her abdomen. At this time, the voice of the maid Chunhua came from outside the room, telling her that Yuwen Yong was looking for her. So, Mantuo said goodbye to Yuwen Hu and left the room.
As night fell, Yuwen Yong returned home exhausted with Mantuo. He quickly walked over to her and wanted to hug her, but Mantuo sent him off to take a shower, saying she reeked of alcohol. Yuwen Yong smiled helplessly and went to the bathroom to wash up.
After Yuwen Yong left, Mantuo quickly lit a hallucinogenic incense in the room and dismissed the maids. She sat quietly at her dressing table, her mind filled with conflict and confusion. She couldn't help but wonder if she should take any action, as she discovered that she had developed genuine feelings for Yuwen Hu.
Just as she was lost in thought, she suddenly heard footsteps. She quickly put down the comb in her hand, and saw Yuwen Yong coming in after taking a bath. He hugged Mantuo tightly and whispered, "Manman, you are so beautiful!"
Mantuo replied awkwardly, "Really?" She tried to break free from Yuwen Yong's embrace and said gently, "Let me help you get to bed to rest." However, Yuwen Yong shook his head, unwilling to do so. He lifted Mantuo up and slowly walked towards the bed. After gently placing her on the bed, he suddenly leaned over and kissed her on the lips. However, at this moment, Yuwen Yong suddenly felt dizzy and fainted on the bed.
Mantuo gently pushed Yuwen Yong away, carefully placed him on the bed, and covered him with a warm quilt. Not long after, Yuwen Yong fell into a deep dream due to inhaling hallucinogens and began to utter low moans.
Mantuo fell asleep on the table. As dawn approached, she extinguished her incense and went back to bed. The next morning, as sunlight streamed through the window, Yuwen Yong slowly opened his eyes. He immediately saw the beauty beside him, soundly asleep, a hint of a smile on her lips. Filled with a sense of satisfaction, Yuwen Yong carefully got out of bed, fearing to wake her.
He quietly instructed his servants to be gentle and not disturb Mantuo's sweet dreams. Afterward, Yuwen Yong straightened his clothes and prepared to enter the palace for court. In the court, Yuwen Yong appeared exceptionally energetic, discussing state affairs with his ministers.
After the morning court session, Yuwen Jue summoned Yuwen Yong to his study. With a serious expression, Yuwen Jue said to Yuwen Yong, "Ayong, I intend to make you the crown prince. Ayu is too weak to control that old fox, Yuwen Hu. If you inherit the throne, with the support of the Dugu and Li families, you will have enough strength to fight against Yuwen Hu."
Upon hearing this, Yuwen Yong was both surprised and delighted, but he still replied respectfully, "Uncle Emperor, this matter is of grave importance, and I dare not accept it lightly. Besides, Uncle Emperor is in the prime of his life, so why worry about not having time to teach Ayu?"
Yuwen Jue waved his hand, signaling Yuwen Yong not to say anything more: "I have made up my mind, there is no need for you to refuse. This is also for the future of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Yuwen Yong was fully aware of Yuwen Jue's determination and the important mission he shouldered, so he stopped shirking his responsibilities and solemnly nodded his agreement: "Thank you for your trust, Uncle Emperor. I will do my best to live up to your trust."
Yuwen Jue smiled with satisfaction and patted Yuwen Yong on the shoulder to express his appreciation. The two then discussed some issues concerning state affairs and strategies for dealing with Yuwen Hu. Yuwen Yong offered some insightful insights and suggestions, which Yuwen Jue recognized.
Finally, Yuwen Yong said goodbye and left the study with a mixed and heavy heart. He knew that from now on, he would face more challenges and pressures, but he also firmly believed that he could be competent for this important task and contribute to the prosperity and stability of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
After returning home, Yuwen Yong looked at Mantuo with deep eyes and asked softly, "Manman, do you want to be the queen?"
Upon hearing this, Mantuo's face showed a bewildered expression. She stared blankly at Yuwen Yong for a long time before she came to her senses and said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? The emperor is in good health! Besides, isn't there Prince Yu? How could it be the turn of your nephew..."
Yuwen Yong sighed softly, walked to the table, slowly poured a glass of water, and said in a low voice: "The emperor's body can no longer hold on. He only has a few months at most. Moreover, A Yu's character is too weak. The emperor believes that he cannot hold on to the throne, let alone compete with Yuwen Hu."
After hearing this, Mantuo couldn't help but frowned. After a moment of silence, she slowly said, "I'm afraid there is no woman in this world who doesn't want to be a queen. However, the final result depends entirely on your own efforts and opportunities. But I want to tell you that if you want to protect the people or things you want to protect, it is best to hold the power yourself." After that, she asked Chunhua to change her clothes and prepare to go back to the Li family villa to visit her grandmother.
