He wished he could crack open her head and see what was inside.
“Your Majesty knows, Ah Wu Wuxin.” Noticing that the man in front of her was getting angrier, Xiao Wu explained, her beautiful eyes filled with seriousness.
But this seemingly unintentional remark only fueled the anger in young Ning Yuan's eyes.
She could calmly say that she didn't mean it, but that was the last thing he wanted to hear.
It was as if it was constantly reminding him of something.
Therefore, he often called her "Ah Wu".
Over the years, she has been called "Ah Wu" less than ten times; most of the time, she is called "National Preceptor."
He hated her name, hated that she called herself Ah Wu.
This name is like a shackle, forever binding her while constantly reminding her of her lack of intention.
So what if I didn't mean it?
She's alive now, so she's a person!
She should live more like a human being!
"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Seeing the young Ning Yuan staring at her silently, Xiao A looked up and asked.
Remembering how Ning Yuan blushed earlier, she couldn't help but raise her hand, wanting to feel if he was sick, just like she used to.
However, before the hand suspended in mid-air could even reach the forehead of the young Ning Yuan, it was grabbed by his strong and powerful hand.
Young Ning Yuan glanced at her slender wrist, as if it would break with the slightest pinch.
Young Ning Yuan's gaze fell on Xiao A Wu, his eyes gleaming. "Since you like to say 'as you wish,' from now on... your name will be Jiang Yuan!"
"I bestow upon you the name Jiang Yuan!"
"Even if you are heartless, you should still have a name that a person should have, and you should live freely like everyone else. Ah, nothingness will only shackle you!"
“From today onwards, you will no longer be called Ah Wu, you will be called Jiang Yuan.”
Young Ning Yuan spoke each word clearly and distinctly.
“But Wu is the name given by Master.” Little Wu was taken aback.
Jiang Yuan.
It sounds nice.
It also sounds like a name a person should have.
She liked it very much.
However, her name was given to her by her master.
The name given by the master cannot be changed so easily.
Moreover...
She truly had no intention of having a name; what difference would it make if she possessed one that a person should have?
You can't change what's already set in stone.
"So what if your master gave you that name? Jiang Yuan is the name I gave you!"
"From this day forward, you are Jiang Yuan. If you continue to call yourself Ah Wu, don't blame me for being impolite!"
"Young Ning Yuan gritted his teeth and said."
Master, Master, it seemed as if she had been living her whole life following the words of her master.
Every time he speaks, he refers to himself as "Master".
When will she be able to live more like herself?
"My words are law. If you disobey, I will exterminate your entire family!" the young Ning Yuan continued.
“Ah Wu has no relatives,” Little Ah Wu replied.
She was an orphan with no blood relatives.
She didn't even know who her parents were.
Of course, she never thought about finding her biological parents.
Because she has a master, senior brothers and sisters, and...
Xiao A's peerless eyes reflected the emotionally unstable young man Ning Yuan before him.
And him.
She is not alone.
She didn't want to think about why her parents abandoned her, whether they were forced to or they really didn't want her.
Thinking about this problem is exhausting.
Since he chose to abandon her in the first place, it proves that their fate was over.
From now on, the bridge will remain a bridge, and the road will remain a road.
"Then I will kill your master, and all your senior brothers and sisters on Star Mountain!" the young Ning Yuan said coldly.
She has no blood relatives, but she has a kind master and fellow disciples who treat her well!
"The nine clans only include my blood relatives; my master, senior brothers, and senior sisters are innocent."
"Although you are the king, you cannot kill innocent people indiscriminately like this. Furthermore, the national advisors of Li Kingdom have been selected from Xingchen Mountain throughout the ages. If you kill them, what will happen to the fate of Li Kingdom?"
Upon hearing that the people on Star Mountain were to be exterminated, Xiao A's expression turned cold, and he adopted a teacher's demeanor to offer advice.
Looking at the person in front of him, the young Ning Yuan thought of all the things that had happened over the years.
When he first ascended the throne and had no close confidants, she was the only one by his side.
When he makes a mistake, she will patiently persuade him, just like she is now, maintaining the demeanor of a teacher.
When he is enraged and wants to kill, people will risk their lives to step forward and dissuade him.
When he was indulging in extravagance, he would be taken out of the capital to see what kind of life the people in remote parts of the country lived, so that he could see with his own eyes that not all parts of the country were prosperous.
Of course, she would praise him when he did well.
His favorite moment was when she praised him, at which point her gaze would be fixed solely on him.
"Then A-Yuan will promise me that she will not refer to herself as A-Wu from now on."
"As long as you agree, I will not kill innocent people indiscriminately, and the people on Star Mountain will be safe."
The young Ning Yuan spoke, his eyes slightly reddening, his tone carrying a hint of pleading.
Looking at the young Ning Yuan like this, Jiang Yuan felt a dull ache in her heart, along with an indescribable feeling.
This feeling is both strange and familiar.
