When the servants came in to report that the slave girl had been tidied up, the doctor had just treated Na Fuzhen's wounds.
Seeing him opening his mouth to answer, but pulling at the wound, he subconsciously hissed, frowned, and said: "Qi Lifa just cut his face, and now whenever he opens his mouth, the wound will open, which is inconvenient." Asking questions.”
It happened that Nafuzhen's wife Monalou was by her side. When she heard this, she said: "Qi Lifa, shall I ask questions for you? Anyway, I have learned Chinese from you. Even if I am not as good as you, but that Since the slave girl is from Mogulue, there is no way she can’t understand my language, Ruru. Mogulue is not a diligent and studious person, he can’t even speak a word of Chinese!”
Na Fuzhen actually didn't care about this minor injury at all, but he didn't want to offend his wife's kindness, so he nodded.
Mrs. Monalou raised her chin towards the tent door and ordered in a haughty tone: "Let her come in!"
Her arrogance was not pretended on purpose, but because Mu Ren's status among Ruru had always been miserable.
As the noble daughter of Monalou, and the wife of the new Khan who was soon to be confirmed, Ruru's future Kehe Dun personally asked a low-level Muslim slave girl, which naturally gave rise to her majesty.
After a while, the slave led a woman in a half-worn but clean robe.
This woman just walked in, and everyone in the tent was startled.
Monalou, who originally had a condescending attitude, lost his composure. There was a clear look of regret between his eyebrows: These idiots! Why didn't you tell me in advance that this slave girl was so beautiful after cleaning up
The female slave of the Mu family had her head lowered most of the time, and her face could not be seen. When Fuzhen asked questions, although he forcibly lifted her chin, her clothes were ragged and her face was stained with dirt. , her hair was tied up in a loose bun with only a wooden hairpin, and she looked very embarrassed. She only felt that her outline was delicate, but it was not very beautiful.
Unexpectedly, now I have washed my face, and my long hair has been neatly tied up with two or three copper hairpins. Although I am wearing a robe that is obviously borrowed and does not fit at all, it looks like a begonia with dew and a peony cage with smoke. , is actually quite a beauty!
Especially a pair of eyes, which are scorching and bright, as if they contain two pools of spring water. Even when looking at people with a straight expression, there is a feeling of pulsation in the buttocks.
She was a Ruru woman, and she was standing there dressed like a woman from the lower class, but for no reason it reminded people of the mountains and rivers in the south of Damu. Her warmth and softness revealed the affection and lingering that kept getting sorted out and messed up.
When Monalou was young, she was known as the pearl of Monalou, the most beautiful and favored girl in the entire clan. But now she secretly compared herself with this slave girl, feeling ashamed and feeling a little discouraged for a while.
She simply glanced at Na Fuzhen secretly from the corner of her eyes, and saw that although her husband's face had a look of surprise, there was no obsession or greed. He returned to normal in just a moment. She breathed a sigh of relief and said in her heart: "This evil and charming fox! It seems that even if I catch Qi Lifa’s eye and try to imitate Damu’s two beauties named Shu and cross over to me, I still can’t!”
Not only Damu's royal family would take a warning from the deposed Wen family's mistakes.
She made up her mind, put on her majestic look again, and said, "What's your name?"
The slave who led the slave girl in looked at his words and saw that his mistress was not happy with the slave girl. He quickly kicked the slave girl in the crook of the leg, forced her to kneel down, and shouted: "Master is asking, who allows you to stand still?! "
"Idiot!" But when Monalou saw this scene, she was not happy at all. Instead, she frowned: If she was alone, of course the slave did this with knowledge.
The problem is, Na Fuzhen is also watching right now!
What if doing this makes Na Fuzhen feel pity for the slave girl? !
So Monalou said coldly: "Qi Lifa has something important to ask, so don't waste time and let her answer it properly!"
"My name is Ari." The female slave knelt on the ground, lowered her head, and answered softly in a very docile manner.
"Ari?" Monalou chewed on the pronunciation and said, "Huh? Is this your name when you were in Damu?"
Ari's tone suddenly became sad: "This is the name the fourth prince gave to this slave."
"Then what was your previous name?" Monalou asked, "Where are you from? What is your identity? How did you come to Ruru? When did you come?"
She kept asking questions in Chinese with a strong Ruru accent. Even Na Fuzhen couldn't understand it, but Ari answered one by one with eloquence: "My former surname was Li, because my sisters in the family Many, my parents were eager to have a baby, so they didn’t bother to give them a name, so they just called Sanya according to their ranking. I had never been out of the village at that time, so I didn’t know exactly where it was. I only knew the name of the village. It's called Lijiacun. I came to Ruru because my parents adopted a younger brother from the clan. The younger brother was smart. My parents thought that he could go to school and honor his ancestors, so they sold their slaves and several sisters to Ren Yazi."
"Originally, we agreed that we would go to the city to work as a maid for a wealthy family, and we could be reunited with each other in a few years."
"Who would have thought that after Ren Yazi brought the slave girl and her sisters to the city, before they went to the big family they had agreed to, a merchant took a fancy to the slave girl and bought the slave girl and Ren Yazi alone. Then they ran all the way to the grassland and sent them to the grassland. Gave it to the Fourth Prince."
After thinking for a while, he said, "That must have been three or four years ago or four or five years ago? I can't remember the specific date clearly."
Mona Lou snorted: "You look like you are sixteen or seventeen years old. Whether it was three or four years ago or four or five years ago, why can't you remember it? Or are you hiding it deliberately?"
"I don't dare!" Ari kowtowed quickly, and then said calmly, "To tell you what my wife is saying, I'm already twenty this year! I'm stupid and don't keep track of numbers. I'm definitely not hiding it on purpose!"
"..." Mona Lou became even more angry when he heard her true age. She thought that this foxy girl from the Mu family had thin skin and tender flesh. Even if she was reduced to a slave girl, she was still so nourished. She was better than a woman like herself. Lady Ru was so delicate when she was a girl.
She suppressed the jealousy in her heart and said, "The fourth prince likes you very much? I see that you have lived a very prosperous life in the past few years, and you are much younger than your peers. But... When I met the fourth prince's wife, it seemed that she never listened to her. Mentioned you?"
"The fourth prince does have some pity for the slave." Ari smiled bitterly after hearing this and said, "Probably for this reason, when the fourth prince wanted to leave before, his wife insisted not to allow the slave to follow, right? Madam You have also seen that the slave is a muqiu. On the grassland, apart from doing ordinary work, there is no other way to make a living. She was born a female, and she is also a bit sexy. There was a fourth prince before, and the slave was careful to serve him. You always have a place to stay, and you don’t have to worry about being bullied by others.”
"Now we have no backer... There is a saying in Middle-earth that ants are still greedy for life. Even though the slaves are in ruins, they still want to find a way to survive."
Monalou exchanged glances with her husband and said, "Since you just said those words to Qilifa, obviously following the fourth prince, you should also know something about the current affairs of our Ruru royal family?"
Seeing Ari nodding, she said, "Then, tell me, why did the Khan arrange for the fourth prince to leave Ruru? Among the descendants of the Khan, Mogulluo, regardless of ranking, virtue, bravery, ability, ability to flatter, or The biological mother’s favor and the support behind her are all at the bottom of the list, right?”
"According to what we just learned, the eldest son, eldest grandson, eighth son, and fifteenth son of the Khan are no longer in the king's tent."
"These few are all outstanding among the brothers, or they are particularly popular with the Khan. They are the ones who will worry about their well-being even after the Khan dies."
"And Mogulue... why did he get such an opportunity?"
"My slave is not sure why..." Ari was mid-sentence. Seeing Mona Lou's displeased expression, she shivered in fright. After calming down, she continued timidly, "But there is one thing that my slave finds very strange: it's the four... When the prince left, he did not take his favorite slave with him, but instead took with him a female slave in the tent, A Qi, whom he had never paid attention to before and who almost died last year."
She pursed her lips and said, "Aqin was sold to the grassland around the same time as the slaves. It is said that he came from the south. When he came here, there seemed to be something wrong on the road. He was a little crazy, so although he looked beautiful, he was not around. The prince didn't like it very much either. Because the slave girl was not favored by other female slaves, she kept bringing her food. I remember that except for the few times she was summoned by the fourth prince when she first came here, she was ordered to do various things at other times. She was used as a slave to do other things. Because she was crazy, she couldn't do many things, so she could only be given some errands that didn't use her brain. Even so, accidents often happened. The adults responsible for managing the female slaves were very troubled. I wanted to drag her out and beat her to death, but for various reasons, I never did.”
"When the fourth prince left before, I thought that I couldn't even follow him, let alone Ah Ji!"
"So I went to A Ji to complain, but unexpectedly I found that A Ji was not there. I thought I had been kidnapped by someone, but later I found out that I had been taken away by the fourth prince... A Ji was not in good health, and he was crazy. Ordinarily, he was taken away by someone. , the fourth prince left quietly and in such a hurry, even if he wanted to take the slave girl with him, why would he take her with him?"
Mrs. Monalou was startled, then turned her head to look at her husband with a questioning expression.
Na Fuzhen pondered for a moment, and regardless of the injury on his cheek, he said in a deep voice: "Are you sure that A Ji was taken away by the fourth prince, and not by someone else, but you don't know?"
Ari nodded with certainty: "The fourth prince took it away!"
"I'm not asking you why you are so sure." Na Fuzhen waved his hand to reject the veil handed over by his wife, letting the blood flow from the wound and dripping down his clothes, and said calmly, "I just want to ask you something. : Since the fourth prince doesn’t intend to take you with him, and his departure is secret, why should he let you live?”
Monalou was reminded and quickly raised her hand to signal her husband to stop talking. She turned around and asked Ari sharply: "You are just a slave girl of the Muslim family, how despicable you are! Even if the master is in a bad mood, it is normal for him to beat you to death. What’s more, the fourth prince needed to leave secretly at that time?! If I don’t silence you, I asked you to come over and send a message to Qi Li. How can the fourth prince and his wife be so naive!?”
"... When the fourth prince's wife left, she did instruct the remaining guards to silence the slaves." Ari was silent for a moment, then said in a tone of voice, "But... that guard happened to be a slave... a slave... A-Jin was... The fourth prince took it away, and he told the slave about this... "
Before she could finish her words, the blush on her cheeks told the truth.
Monalou couldn't help but said with disdain: "You are a female slave of the Mu people. You were a poor and humble person when you were in Damu. After you came to Ruru, you can serve the son of the Khan. What a blessing it is! You admit it yourself. Mogulue is not bad to you, but he still wants to have an affair with a guard. He should be tied to the back of a horse and dragged to death!"
When Ari heard this, she burst into tears and became choked with sobs.
She was now tidied up, and her beauty was revealed. She became even more charming and charming when she cried like this. Madam Mona Lou was angry and was about to scold her when Na Fuzhen asked: "So, can you stay in the king's tent?" Is it because of your lover that you intercepted me? What is his name? Where is he now? What do you mean by asking you to do this? "
