Being a cannon fodder female supporting role is not as good as marrying a lucky villain

"Why can't it be done?" Hu Yanwen asked displeasedly, "You are the future Khan of the Huns. Aren't you more noble than her fiancé?"

"Besides, there are so many unlucky men in this world, but I have watched you grow up. You are the most honest and will never let her down." Hu Yanwen looked very serious, as if he really wanted to separate Yuwen Tuo and Gu Ning. Pulling strings, "In my opinion, you are a good match!"

Yuwen Tuo simply didn't know what to say. When he met Hu Yanwen's determined eyes, he opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say what he was thinking.

"Grandpa, now is not the time to talk about the love between these children." Yuwen Tuo quickly changed the subject, "You should think carefully about how we should deal with Yu Wenxu's next vicious plan!"

"Didn't Wu Zixu say that? He has already planned to wipe out the Huyan family."

After listening to Yuwen Tuo's words, Hu Yanwen sneered in response.

"Just him?" Hu Yanwen's eyes were full of coldness, and he said firmly every word, "As long as the high priest can wake up, we will definitely be able to turn defeat into victory!"

"When the time comes, we will eradicate the Yelu family! And that person Yu Wenxu..." Hu Yanwen said in a deep voice, "He killed the old Khan. I must cut off his head and put it in the old Khan's house." In front of his grave!"

"Grandfather said it is absolutely true!" Yuwen Tuo's face turned ugly at this moment, "I will decide on Yu Wenxu's head!"

While the two were talking, they heard rapid footsteps coming from the secret passage. Immediately afterwards, the guard walked out quickly and said excitedly: "The high priest is awake!"

Upon hearing this, both of them cheered up.

Hu Yanwen even restrained all the anger in his body and hurriedly walked into the secret passage.

The high priest is over fifty, but he still looks like a young man in his early thirties. If his face were not still pale, he would be more energetic.

Seeing Hu Yanwen and Yuwen Tuo, he was stunned for a moment, and then sighed with understanding: "It seems that my life should not have been cut off. Before I died, I was saved by Lord Hu Yan."

"High Priest!" Hu Yanwen saw him and hurried up.

Yuwen Tuo, on the other hand, knelt on the ground and waited for the high priest's reprimand.

In the royal court, apart from the Khan, the high priest had the highest status. Yuwen Tuo often made the high priest angry and was often reprimanded.

Thinking of the cooperation he had reached with Chu State, Yuwen Tuo had two words written all over his body - guilty conscience.

However, the high priest's eyes only stayed on him for a moment, and then he focused all his attention on Hu Yanwen.

"Lord Huyan, it was you who saved me." The high priest sighed, "My life was hanging by a thread at the beginning. You must have put a lot of effort into saving me."

As soon as these words came out, Hu Yanwen also became silent and swallowed back the words that had just reached his lips.

How should he answer the words of the high priest?That he signed a treaty with the Chu State in order to save the high priest?Let the Xiongnu, who finally prospered, become a vassal state of Chu again?

Hu Yanwen's eyes also flickered, and the high priest's eyes looked at the two of them, and finally shook his head and sighed.

"It looks like things are a little worse than I thought."

Seeing the increasingly guilty looks on the two men's faces, he added, "How much of our Xiongnu's territory is left now?"

Hearing this, both of them were taken aback.

Hu Yanwen could still control his facial expressions, but Yuwen Tuo had clearly expressed his surprise on his face: "Why did the high priest say this? Our Huns have no less territory!"

"Since there is not even an inch missing, why do you two look like you are mourning for your heir?" the high priest asked, "Looking at your appearance, I thought that we Xiongnu had been divided up by the two countries of Chu and Yan."

When the high priest said this, he smiled.

Yuwen Tuo looked at it and was stunned.

He rolled his eyes and realized that in the eyes of the high priest, the destruction of the country was a major event?

When he thought of this, he couldn't restrain the impulse in his heart. He opened his mouth and wanted to tell the high priest everything that happened during this period.

However, as soon as Yuwen Tuo opened his mouth, Hu Yanwen pinched his arm severely.

Yuwen Tuo suppressed those words immediately, and Hu Yanwen smiled coquettishly at the high priest: "Actually, it's not a big deal... It's just... In order to save your life and catch Yu Wenxu who killed his father and rebelled, I had to... …Signed a treaty with Chu State.”

"What treaty?" The high priest saw the two people's little actions, but didn't take it to heart. What really concerned him was the treaty Hu Yanwen mentioned.

Hu Yanwen took a deep breath and told everything that happened.

"The Khan had already noticed that Yu Wenxu was rebellious and wanted to save the second prince's life, so he ordered my son to take the second prince to the border."

"Unexpectedly, just at the border, the black cavalry of the Chu Kingdom appeared, surrounded our army, and took the opportunity to capture them all."

"It was at this time that the Khan died and news of the civil strife in the royal court came."

"At that time, we already knew that there was a force of the Yan State behind Yu Wenxu. The Yan State's army was watching at the border, waiting for us to invade the Xiongnu when we were at our weakest!"

"For the centuries-old foundation of our ancestors! For the empire built by Khan, I had to let Hu Yanliang cooperate with the Chu State and send the second prince over with the help of the Chu State's army."

Hearing this, the high priest's brows knitted tightly.

He only believed half of what Hu Yanwen said.

Hu Yanwen's words could not withstand scrutiny. At that time, the army was at the border and the royal city was under the control of Yu Wenxu. How could he communicate with the army?

I'm afraid the one who really makes the decision is Hu Yanliang!Or... Yuwen Tuo!

The high priest's eyes instantly focused on Yuwen Tuo. Yuwen Tuo secretly clenched his hands. His original intention was to tell the whole truth, but Hu Yanwen unexpectedly beat him to it!

"High Priest, I..."

"Please ask the high priest to punish you!" Hu Yanwen immediately interrupted Yuwen Tuo's words.

At this time, Hu Yanwen knelt in front of the high priest. Under the dim light, his face became more and more old and haggard: "I have signed a treaty with the Chu State. As long as the second prince sits on the throne, we Huns will be the king of Chu." A vassal state of our country!”

After a moment, the high priest sighed softly: "You don't have to blame yourself."

"No one wants to see such a situation." He said, "What's more, you are also forced to have no choice. If Yu Wenxu hadn't rebelled, how could you have fallen into a desperate situation?"

"Even if the Khan is still alive, he will definitely understand what you are doing." He waved his hand, "This is not a sin."

"Master Huyan, it's me who thanks you." The high priest said, and personally helped Huyanwen up. "In order to save my life, you must have spent a lot of effort."

Now that we know that Hu Yanwen is cooperating with the Chu State, then if he can escape death, he must have something to do with the Chu State.

Listening to the words of the high priest, Hu Yanwen's high-hanging heart finally settled down.

What he is afraid of is that the high priest will disapprove of their cooperation with the Chu State. If this is the case, the high priest will not only not be able to help them expose Yu Wenxu's true face, but will also become their resistance!

Hu Yanwen really didn’t want to attack the high priest!

fine!fine!He sighed in his heart, fortunately the high priest was a reasonable person.

Yuwen Tuo gradually woke up from his daze. He looked at the high priest and then at Hu Yanwen, and his mind became active.

Since the high priest doesn't object, can he just go ahead and do it?

However, just when this idea came into Yuwen Tuo's mind, the high priest suddenly looked at him.

"Today, when I was in a coma, I heard a woman's voice." The high priest asked, "I wonder if the second prince can tell me the identity of this person?"

Hearing this, Yuwen Tuo's heart rang with alarm bells.

It's all right, why do you need to ask about Gu Ning's identity?

He barely managed to calm down and whispered: "She is the daughter of an official in Chu State."

The high priest seemed to believe his statement and nodded: "It turns out she is from the Chu country. She must have saved my life."

"If I have the chance, I will definitely thank her." The high priest seemed gentle and polite, but Yuwen Tuo read something else in his eyes.

Yuwen Tuo squeezed his hands tightly and barely let himself show any other expression: "If there is a chance, I will definitely recommend the high priest!"

The high priest smiled, changed the subject, and talked about another thing.

"Yu Wenxu is indeed hateful." He has always been a gentle person, and Yuwen Tuo has never made him angry, but this is the first time Yu Wen Tuo has seen him look so gloomy.

The high priest continued: "He took advantage of the Khan's unpreparedness and pierced the Khan's chest with a sword. I divined that the Khan was in trouble, but I was a step too late. When I arrived with my guards, I only saw To the Khan’s body.”

"Before I could go to him to settle the score, he had already surrounded the royal court with his men and bluntly accused me of plotting regicide. Only me and my confidants survived the arrow formation at that time."

"However, in order to protect my life, my confidant was also beheaded by Yu Wenxu. I was lucky enough to jump into the Moon Lake in the royal court and actually floated out of the royal court."

"And then, he was rescued by Master Huyan."

When he mentioned this, he felt a sense of fear in his heart.

In every step, if there was a mistake, he would definitely die.

Even if he dies, the truth behind Khan’s death will never be revealed to the world again!

"Yu Wenxu is used to using these tricks." Hu Yanwen sneered, "He himself conspired to rebel, but instead shouted to catch the thief! The crime was pinned on you!"

"That's exactly the problem." The high priest sighed, "If he uses this trick again during the confrontation, what should we do?"

Hu Yanwen was silent for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "Then don't give him a chance to use this trick! I will send someone to kill him tonight!"

"Master Huyan, the royal court is not so easy to enter." The high priest shook his head helplessly, "It is best to find evidence that he colluded with the Yan Kingdom. By then, in front of the irrefutable evidence, let him make a few mouths. , you can’t even deny it!”

"What the high priest said is absolutely true!" Hu Yanwen's eyes lit up, "It's easy to find evidence of his collusion with Yan State! It just so happens that I have an informant beside him!"

The high priest was extremely pleased. Just when he was about to say something, a burst of fatigue came over him.

Before he could speak, his eyelids dropped heavily and he fell on the bed.

Yuwen Tuo and Hu Yanwen were both shocked. One quickly supported him to prevent his head from hitting the wall, and the other immediately checked his breathing, fearing that he was not sleeping but dead.

Fortunately, the high priest's breathing was calm and his face was very rosy, as if he had fallen asleep.

Hu Yanwen was still frightened: "You should go and ask the girl tomorrow if this is normal."

The existence of the high priest is too important, nothing can happen to him!

"Grandpa, who is the person you are talking about?" Yuwen Tuo carefully laid the high priest down on the bed and looked at Hu Yanwen curiously.

"Isn't it Wu Zixu?" Hu Yanwen said confidently, "Other than Wu Zixu, who else can get close to Yu Wenxu?"

"But..." Yuwen Tuo was a little uneasy, "Wu Zixu will really help us?"

"Whether he helps or not, he has already stepped onto our pirate ship. There is no room for him to refuse!" Hu Yanwen smiled coldly, "I will definitely let him help us willingly!"

Yuwen Tuo glanced at Hu Yanwen again, but Hu Yanwen's expression was very calm, as if he had everything under control.
