The wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep
Qi Yan waited in Wulan City for seven days, but Jiya never showed up.
On the contrary, Bayin would come to talk to her every day, and even go hunting when he was interested.
Qi Yan chose a suitable mount for Jin Wushu. The little guy was never thrown off the horse again, and gradually developed his interest in riding.
Qi Yan didn't ask Bayin anything in the past few days, she listened quietly to what the other party said, and Qi Yan would answer truthfully when asked about her life in Wei.
But Qi Yan has been counting the days these days. This is the thirteenth day since she left Yanran's mansion. After all, Cheng Xin should be delivered to Nangong Jingnu soon. I don't know if Ding You can hide it from her. Illness…
Yesterday, Qi Yan and Bayin hunted a deer with Jin Wushu. They left the blood all night. In the morning, Qi Yan and Bayin cooked the deer, put the deer on the top and bottom of the wooden frame, lit fruit charcoal and roasted it with a dark fire. Most of the day.
At noon that day, the whole deer, which was roasted golden and fragrant, was brought to the table.
This was the first time Jin Wushu had eaten venison. The little guy was holding one front leg and his face was covered in oil. Qi Yan also had a great appetite and ate half of the venison, and the rest went into Bayin's stomach. .
Bayin's appetite was even more amazing than that of Anujin. He ate so much venison and drank two kumiss and a few sheets of roasted naan.
Kumiss has a refreshing taste with a milky aroma and sweetness. People who drink it are easily confused by its taste and overdose. Bayin's drinking volume does not seem to be as majestic as his body, only his face reveals With a touch of flushing, a loud burp, took the meat-cutting knife and tapped the edge of the bowl.
"The sky is blue, the grass is green, the children go on horseback to herd the sheep, the sheep eat grass everywhere, and the sheep are like the clouds on the sky..."
The floodgates of memory opened again, and Qi Yan recalled the past when her father and daughter held her in his arms, and the father and daughter rode together to herd sheep.
Sukhbaru picked a small yellow flower from nowhere and gave it to Agula. From time to time, he took out stones from the cloth bag to drive back the stray sheep, and hummed this song.
Qi Yan remembered: Father Khan's skill in throwing stones was superb. Wherever he pointed, a small stone could hit any leg of a sheep with precision. Father Khan also said that she was young and her wrist strength was not enough. give her…
Bayin stared at the misty drunk eyes and grinned at Qiyan.
Qi Yan slapped her knees in harmony with Bayin, and sang this song that she almost forgot.
Jin Wushu looked at the two adults curiously: Singing is obviously a happy thing, why do you feel a little uneasy
Bayin withdrew her gaze and kept tapping the rim of the bowl and sang over and over again. Qi Yan sang along and stopped singing on both sides. She poured herself a bowl of kumiss and drank it slowly.
The curtain of the tent was lifted, and a prairie warrior said to Qiyan in Wei dialect: "Princess, please come over."
Qi Yan's heart moved, she put down the wine bowl and glanced at Bayin. The other party was also looking at her, and the two exchanged glances. Qi Yan got up and left.
Qi Yanli took a deep breath outside Jiya's tent: It's finally here.
There was only Jiya in the tent, and there was no baby in sight, but Jiya was plump and plump, plus the special milk scent in the air, which confirmed Qi Yan's previous conjecture.
Ji Ya had her hair loose, and Qi Yan smiled and said in prairie words, "Sit down."
Jiya: "Have you seen Bayin?"
Qi Yan: "Yeah."
Jiya: "My father Khan is dead. Considering that my brother and I have taken in a lot of people from the Zhanli people, can the grievances between our two tribes be written off?"
A nameless fire erupted in Qi Yan's heart. Tuba's division led the wolf into the house, causing the destruction of the other two divisions. It was just the death of Eri and one. How to write it off? !
But at the moment, she is a knife, and she is alone in Ji Ya's fief, so she can only follow her.
Qi Yan: "This is natural."
Ji Ya was silent for a long time, and sighed faintly: "I know you don't think so in your heart."
Qi Yan: "Then why do you ask?"
Ji Ya: "At this time and another, I know that you sneaked into the Wei Kingdom for revenge, but do you think you can do it alone?"
Qi Yan was noncommittal, looking at Ji Ya without speaking.
Jiya: "Whether you can accept it or not, this is the truth. You can't do anything by being alone, so please see... I didn't reveal your identity back then, and cooperate with us for the time being."
Qi Yan sneered: "Just as the imperial concubine said just now, I am only one person. The imperial concubine and Jiedushi have thousands of troops in hand. What qualifications do I have to cooperate with you?"
Ji Ya's face couldn't be hung up, and she replied a little sullenly: "Agula, you don't want to toast and eat fine wine! You are on my territory now!"
Qi Yan: "Why, is the noble concubine going to kill someone?"
Ji Ya: "If you insist on not cooperating, it's not impossible."
Qi Yan was very disdainful of this, and replied coldly: "Not to mention whether these people in the hands of the noble concubine can stop Bayin, let me tell you... As early as the day your brother asked me to come here alone, I will let my confidant. The entourage is secretly lurking in Luonan, and if he does not receive the code that I have left safely on the agreed day, he will report the rebellion of your brothers and sisters to the court!"
Ji Ya suddenly got up, pointed at Qi Yan's nose and scolded: "Agula! You are actually a lackey of the court! Are you going to betray the grassland?"
Qi Yan also stood up and looked directly into Ji Ya's eyes: "Who gave the grassland to today's situation?! The lackeys? We supported the plow department to fight to exterminate the clan without wagging our tails and begging for mercy from the Wei Kingdom! Who accepted the Wei Kingdom? official position? Who married into the harem of Wei State and became a noble concubine?!"
Ji Ya: "You..." Ji Ya wanted to say that Qi Yan's concubine was also very moisturizing? But then I thought that Qi Yan was an indispensable character at the moment, so I forcefully pressed it back.
Qi Yan lost her temper, the stagnation in her heart dissipated a lot, and she sat back again: "If you forgive me, I advise you not to mention it again, and tell me your purpose."
Ji Ya couldn't believe her eyes. She couldn't see the slightest trace of gentleness in the other party. Could it be that she has been acting in Wei for so many years
This kind of Qi Yan gave Jiya a headache. The other party was not the brave and inexperienced person like Bayin. This person was extremely smart.
Ji Ya's self-esteem was frustrated, and she retorted unwillingly: "Aren't you afraid that I will tell the Wei Kingdom's court your identity?"
Qi Yan seemed to have heard something interesting and replied with a smile, "Who do you think would believe it? The tattoo totem supporting the plow has been destroyed by me, what evidence do you have? Explain the origin of the child."
Ji Ya's face turned red and white, and finally sat back embarrassed: "I won't go back to Wei State again."
Qi Yan: "Don't go back? I'm afraid that the army of the Wei Kingdom will be able to push to the Luoshui River in a month. With your troops and horses, there is a chance of victory?"
Ji Ya lowered her head and begged in Wei Guo dialect: "So please help me... I know who is the one who is under the curtain. I am just a childless concubine, and she will listen to you."
Qi Yan: "I heard Bayin say that Anujin wants me to master the military talisman, and you asked me to help you get out of the harem. What do you want me to do?"
Ji Ya: "The military talisman is naturally the first priority. The warriors of the grasslands go to Jiu Cunyi. The Wei State's troops are strong and strong. If there is no military talisman to restrain us, we have no chance of winning. It's just... This child was not originally planned. He came by accident."
This pregnancy was an accident. Jiya thought about aborting the child, but the medicine given to the concubine in the inner court was strictly controlled by the imperial hospital. She really couldn't get the medicine for abortion, so she asked Qi Yan to help out of the palace before showing her pregnancy. I wanted to find an opportunity to abort the child, but as the fetus matured, Jiya's heart softened.
Seeing that Qi Yan was speechless, Ji Ya murmured: "You are not a woman, you will not understand the feelings of a mother... Please help me because I have never disclosed the matter of Nangong Jingnu to Nangong Wang. This time."
Compassion flashed by. Compared with Nangong Jingnu, the identity of Jiya's enemy's daughter is more real. Although Qi Yan and Ji Ya formed a mutual use relationship in the Wei Kingdom, she would never forgive the people of Tuba.
Qi Yan: "If you want a military talisman, you must go back with me. I haven't seen a Wei countryman for so long since I've been here, and I haven't even seen Nangong Wang, so he must not be able to go back. If not even you If I can bring it back, my identity will also be doubted, let alone the military talisman, it will be difficult to survive. Moreover, Nangong Rang is seriously ill, but he is not dead yet, you are the hostage that Anujin gave to the Wei Kingdom, how much you can do with you It can be confusing, and it can also buy some time for major events.”
Ji Ya: "...If I go back, I won't be able to come back, and I will definitely be given death on the day of the uprising."
Qi Yan also knew that what Ji Ya said was the truth, but she hoped to use Ji Ya's existence to buy some time for Nangong Jingnu, so she said with her conscience: "No, Nangong's time is running out. You have no children under your knees and I will have a way to put you back on the grasslands when he is dead."
After saying this, Qi Yan felt that she had fallen into a tear of conscience again, and she was sorry for Bayin.
But... Once the grassland successfully overthrew the Wei Kingdom, Nangong Jingnu would definitely not survive.
Maybe he will be captured alive. At that time, Bayin may force himself to kill Nangong Jingnv in public to avenge the support of the plow department. When he thinks of what may happen, Qi Yan is so mad that he wants to kill.
She didn't want Nangong Jingnv to suffer, she couldn't imagine the look in her eyes when Nangong Jingnv knew everything, and even... She didn't want Nangong Jingnv to die.
Qi Yan said irritably: "Think about it for yourself, I can lie and say that Nangong Wang died of illness, or I can find a way to prevaricate the cause of death of those Wei people who came back with you, but this is all based on the fact that you and I return to the palace together. The premise."
Jiya: "I see, let me think about it..."
Qi Yan: "I'll go back first."
Ji Ya: "Come with Bayin tomorrow morning, my brother has a gift for you."
