Chapter 261: Imperial Instructor of Western Yan
"Wuyou?" Princess Songshan asked puzzledly.
Wuyou nodded and said softly: "Yes, Feng Wuyou, this is the name my brother gave me."
"Feng Wuyou? Brother?"
Wuyou looked at Feng Jiuqing and said, "Wuyou was sold to Dayue Xitai Tower. It was my brother who rescued Wuyou. Otherwise, Wuyou would probably be dead now."
Princess Songshan's eyes became even redder. Even though she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she could imagine how her A Le had been living all these years.
It's ridiculous that she had always thought that A Le was dead and went to the cliff to pay tribute to him every year, but it turned out that her son was still alive, in a place she didn't know, suffering all kinds of hardships.
Princess Songshan bowed deeply to Feng Jiuqing: "Thank you for saving my son's life, sir. I would like to tie a ring and hold a piece of grass in my mouth to repay your kindness."
Feng Jiuqing dodged and helped Princess Songshan up: "Aunt, you don't have to be polite. Wuyou is my brother. This is what I should do."
"you are?"
This person called her aunt. Could this person be a member of the Dai Viet royal family? But she was sure that she didn't know the person in front of her.
Feng Jiuqing took off his disguise mask, and Princess Songshan felt that Feng Jiuqing's face looked somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him for a moment.
"My grandmother is the old lady of the Duke of Dayue's Mansion." Feng Jiuqing said softly.
Princess Songshan suddenly realized that this man was indeed very similar to a member of the Shen family. He was called Shen Qing to outsiders. It turned out that he was Lan Shu's son.
"Is your mother okay?" Princess Songshan asked softly.
"Very good." Feng Jiuqing's expression was indifferent.
"If the princess is only here to acknowledge her relatives and express her apology, I will accept it. I don't blame you for these things. I know you had no choice at the beginning."
Princess Songshan was stunned for a moment: "A Le."
Wuyou's expression was calm. He didn't want Princess Songshan to keep asking Qingqing about Princess Lanshu. Even if Qingqing acted calm, she would still be sad. He didn't want Princess Songshan to hurt Qingqing's heart.
"It's all over. Wuyou is no longer a slave to be trampled on by others, and he won't be hurt again. If nothing else happens, Princess, please go back. My brother and I have something to discuss."
Princess Songshan was heartbroken. Her child seemed to have grown up overnight. He was only a little kid less than three feet tall before, but when she saw him again, he was taller than her.
Princess Songshan wiped away her tears. She would not disturb her child's affairs, so she was willing to leave.
"A Le, when you have time, come to the palace for a meal and your mother will cook it for you." There was a hint of pleading in Princess Songshan's eyes.
"Okay, I will." Wuyou nodded with no expression on his face.
"Nephew Shen, please come along. Just think of it as me, your mother, thanking you on behalf of Wuyou."
Feng Jiuqing nodded: "It is better to obey than to be respectful. Shen Qing will definitely come to the princess' banquet."
Princess Songshan forced a smile and said, "That's good. You guys are busy. I'll go back first."
"Farewell, Princess."
After Princess Songshan left, Wuyou walked up to Feng Jiuqing and said softly, "I'm sorry, brother."
Feng Jiuqing tapped Wuyou's forehead: "Why apologize? It's not you who did it. The princess doesn't know about the Lu family. Ignorance is not a crime."
"You are now the crown prince of Western Yan, and as long as King Songshan doesn't compete with you for the position, no one can replace you."
"The princess is your mother. King Songshan loves her and will not compete with you for her. But even if he wants to, it doesn't matter. Brother will protect you."
"Brother!" Wuyou leaned into Feng Jiuqing's arms with red eyes, "Wuyou will definitely repay brother well."
"Little bastard!" Feng Jiuqing scolded with a smile: "Do I want your reward?"
"Of course not. Brother is the best person in the world to Wuyou, and Wuyou will also be very good to brother. So brother, can you please not leave Wuyou?"
Feng Jiuqing tapped Wuyou's forehead again and said, "Little bastard! When did I say I was leaving?"
Wuyou smiled in a place where Feng Jiuqing couldn't see: "Brother is the best to Wuyou."
Feng Jiuqing deliberately said angrily: "You only know now?"
"No! Wuyou is wrong—"
"Okay," Feng Jiuqing interrupted Wuyou: "Your foundation is too weak now, so I deliberately deployed troops on the border, just to make them unable to take care of you and have to push you to the top."
"It's up to you now. Xia Huli and I have taught you everything we can. You did a great job today. Before you secure the throne, the Emperor of Western Yan cannot die. After you ascend the throne, you can do whatever you want with him, but you have to think about the consequences in advance."
"When you ascend the throne, you will not only have to take care of yourself, but also the entire Western Yan. Western Yan and Dai Yue have been hostile to each other for many years, and you are the child of the Dai Yue princess. If you can turn the two countries from hostility to friendship, it will be a blessing for both countries."
"No matter what, I don't hope to meet you on the battlefield one day. Wuyou, you have to walk the road ahead by yourself. I won't leave for a while, but I am the Grand Tutor of Dayue after all, and I will return to Dayue sooner or later."
Wuyou lowered her eyes to hide the emotion in her eyes: "Brother, can't you stay for Wuyou?"
Feng Jiuqing shook his head and said softly: "One day you will understand that I don't belong here, whether it is Dayue or Xiyan."
"All good things must come to an end. We will part ways someday. Don't worry. This is how the world works. God's will cannot be changed."
Wuyou lowered his eyes. What if he had to go against the will of heaven? He would rather die than be separated from Qingqing.
The reply from Dai Viet arrived very quickly, saying that for the sake of Wuyou's status and face, the Grand Tutor could not attack Western Yan, but the emperor of Western Yan must be Wuyou, otherwise he would lead his army to destroy the royal court of Western Yan!
In addition, Western Yan and Dai Viet needed to sign a new alliance, not going to war for at least twenty years, and some other minor conditions were also attached.
No one in Western Yan wanted to fight Feng Jiuqing, so those who originally did not want Wuyou to ascend the throne shut up. A month later, Wuyou ascended the throne and became the emperor of Western Yan, agreeing to all of the Grand Tutor's conditions.
The first imperial decree he issued was to appoint Shen Qing as the Imperial Tutor of Western Yan.
When Feng Jiuqing received this imperial edict, he really wanted to beat Wuyou up. Why did he appoint him as the Imperial Preceptor of Western Yan when there were so many other titles? Didn’t he know that being an Imperial Preceptor was very dangerous?
Besides, he knew what Wuyou, the brat, had in mind for him. Could it be that the brat had seen something he shouldn’t have seen and that’s why he made him the Imperial Teacher of Western Yan?
I really want to beat up this bear cub, what should I do?
But when Feng Jiuqing took the imperial edict to find Wuyou, Wuyou blinked innocently and said, "Brother taught Wuyou a lot of truths. After thinking about it, Wuyou still thinks that the position of imperial teacher is very suitable for brother."
"Brother, why don't you want to be the Imperial Master? Is there something wrong?"
