hunting
Qin Yining knew that this was definitely not a simple matter. Anari had eaten enough vinegar, and she just fell into the vinegar vat just now. Siqin made it clear that she wanted to use Anari to do something. , and now suddenly said that he wants to hunt, there must be a conspiracy.
When the maid saw Qin Yining's eyelashes flickering, she lowered her eyes and fell silent. Half of her small face was hidden in the soft animal skin, and half of her face was hidden under the warm orange firelight. That soft and pretty appearance made her, a woman, feel heartbroken. Crisp, let alone men? It is more understandable for Ana Ri to be so wary of Qin Yining's behavior.
"Madam?" the maid asked inquiringly. She obeyed Anari's orders and had to return to her life.
Qin Yining really wanted to refuse, her physical weakness and fatigue from traveling and driving made her exhausted to the limit. If Qin Yining was still in the palace now, Qin Yining would definitely relax and take a good rest for a while, then he would just eat, sleep, sleep and recuperate in bed.
But it was found that she was only a prisoner now, and she did not indulge her qualifications at all, and there was no room for refusal or resistance to Anari's orders.
I have to say that the desperate situation forced her to be strong. In the current situation, either gritted his teeth or struggled for a while, or he could only be slaughtered and become a lamb to be slaughtered.
"I see, go back and tell Khan I'll be there."
When the maid saw Qin Yining answer, she nodded, took a few steps back, walked around the screen, and left the side hall.
As the hall door creaked shut, the entire hall fell into silence again, except for the occasional "crackling" sound of firewood burning from the bonfire.
Qin Yining did not relax.
Because she can feel that there is no one on the surface in this hall now, but there are actually at least two people watching her every move in secret, and they are still in different directions.
It should be two groups of people, because a woman who has no power to stalk her can't catch two masters, not to mention that there are layers of guards outside the hall who are not afraid of her wanting to escape.
Qin Yining tightened the blanket wrapped around him, wrapped himself into a ball, curled up and lay down next to the bonfire.
At this time, she missed her home in the capital, Pang Xiao, her father and mother, and Ma and Yao.
There are also Bingtang and Jiyun, I don't know if they have escaped.
Cao Yuqing didn't know if he was still alive after being so badly injured.
She and Pang Xiao have been separated for more than three months. Knowing that she is missing, Pang Xiao does not know what to do...
Qin Yining closed his eyes, but felt his nose was sore, his eyes were hot, and tears came up all of a sudden.
Tears make people vulnerable, and she can't be vulnerable now. She wants to leave Tatar alive under Siqin's calculations and Anari's dread. With such a weak emotion, what awaits her is nothing but doom.
Qin Yining didn't sleep peacefully that night. She was detained and monitored in a place that could not provide a sense of security at all. She had to be on guard at all times to see if anyone came back, and it was impossible to sleep peacefully.
But when she got up early the next morning, she was still in good spirits and calm as usual.
The maid was still the same one from yesterday, named Uya Khan.
Qin Yining observed that she might also be a trainer, because she walked silently and always appeared behind her suddenly. However, Uyahan's temper is not annoying. As far as he can know, he will show her about it, and he will also explain the surrounding buildings and some Tatar customs to her. When serving her, he will be careful. .
"Ma'am, it's almost time."
"it is good."
Qin Yining took the cotton cloak handed over by Wu Yahan and put it on, then put on a scarf with gray rabbit fur, and stepped on warm boots, and Wu Yahan led him to the outside of the hall.
After exiting the side gate of the palace, there was already a team of guards and warriors waiting there. The guards were all dressed in animal skins, with long bows on their arms, and their quivers were full of arrows, ready to be fired.
The slaves who were leading the horses and preparing the carriage were all in rags, their hair was disheveled, and their faces were miserable. Among the slaves were even seven or eight-year-old children and shriveled and shriveled old men.
Qin Yining frowned and followed behind Uya Khan.
Uya Khan pointed to a group of slaves and said, "Madam, the Khan ordered you to wait here."
Qin Yining understood that this was Anari's humiliation to her, but she was originally a prisoner, and she never felt that she was much nobler than a slave. Besides, with Anari's methods, these slaves might be ordinary herdsmen who were defeated by various tribes during her battle.
She didn't think so, so she turned around and stood in the middle of a group of slaves.
The slaves bowed their heads and stood aside, bowing slightly, not daring to look up to see who was standing in their ranks.
Qin Yining's calm expression made Wu Yahan look at him with admiration.
Not long after, Lu Heng, who was wearing a squirrel cape, came along with Anari and Siqin.
As soon as he walked out of the arched brick and stone city gate, he saw Qin Yining standing pretty among a bunch of gray-headed slaves, like standing out from the crowd, happy and content.
Lu Heng frowned in distress and said solemnly, "General Siqin, Princess Zhongshun has a very valuable status. Even if she is now a prisoner with the next one, she should be given a certain amount of respect. How can she be treated like a slave?"
Si Qin was very fond of this title, so he carefully followed Lu Heng's gaze, and when he saw Qin Yining standing among the slaves, he couldn't help but disagree: "I was negligent." He waved his hand to Wu Yahan, "Alright Don't invite the princess over."
"No!"
Ana Ri was very unhappy when she saw Lu Heng begging Qin Yining for mercy, but Siqin agreed to meet again, and immediately stopped her angrily.
"Ben Khan told her to stand there! A lowly servant, she should stand there!"
Lu Heng raised his eyebrows and looked at Anari strangely, "Am I not good at learning the Tatar language? A concubine with a different surname can only be called a lowly maid in the Tatar? How many people who are equally humble?"
"You!" Anari glared at Lu Heng angrily, "Don't forget, you are also a prisoner! If Ben Khan wanted to kill you, it was just a matter of lip service, you..."
"It turns out that, last night General Siqin also said that I was a friend of the Tartars, and it is natural for friends to help each other. Today, I have become a prisoner in the Khan's mouth. So should I go to Princess Zhongshun now? standing in one place?"
Lu Heng was from an extraordinary background and had a noble temperament. He was more like a stare than Anari. In addition, the displeased expression on his handsome face made Anari even more furious when he looked straight at him.
Ana Ri was so angry that she was about to whip her whip.
But Siqin reached out and grabbed the whip in time, then took Anari's hand with his backhand, and said, "Khan calm down."
Ana Ri looked at Siqin in disbelief, "You are for that bitch again!"
Siqin's face was sinking, "Khan, you have to pay attention to what you say! Where do you want to leave me with such doubts about me?"
When Anari saw that Siqin was actually angry, she was both wronged and sullen, and there were so many servants around her watching, which made her face even more unbearable.
She wanted to burst out. She explained what she didn't say clearly last night, but looking at Si Qin's angry appearance, she remembered what the nurse said—
"Khan must not be so suspicious anymore. The concubine is not that kind of person. If the Khan is suspicious and accused again and again, it will only make men's hearts more inclined towards gentle and affectionate women."
Gentle and affectionate
Anari couldn't help but once again looked at the hateful Qin Yining who was still standing among the slaves with a beautiful expression, and forced herself to control her temper.
Hunting today must kill her! What kind of cooperation, any business, can cooperate with the Lumen family, this woman should be damned!
Seeing that Anari stopped talking, Siqin's anger subsided a little, and he scolded Uya Khan angrily: "How did you lead the way? How can you lead the lady to the slave's place?"
Uyahan obeyed Anari's orders and acted wrongly. But she also knew that at this time, the master could only blame himself for the fault in order to save face. He knelt down and kowtowed: "It's the negligence of the slave, I beg the concubine to punish him."
"Go and intercede with Madam. If she refuses to forgive you, I have nothing to say." Si Qin spoke Da Zhou's words and looked at Qin Yining.
Before these people had been arguing for so long, Qin Yining didn't understand at all, but looking at their eyes, Qin Yining could guess that they were doing it for her, and most likely it was because of her standing in the slave team.
She didn't expect Lu Heng to stand up and speak for herself, although she didn't know what he said, but seeing Ana's angry face turning green, she felt a lot more at ease, and she was very grateful to Lu Heng.
Now that he heard Si Qin say this, Qin Yining understood everything, and was a little amused at Si Qin's careful thinking.
If she really punished Uya Khan, not to mention how fiercely Anari would retaliate when she turned back, would it be better if she replaced another maid? What's more, Uya Khan is also under orders, and she has always been attentive to her care.
Qin Yining immediately waved his hand and said, "Get up, you are also under orders."
She was speaking in Da Zhou dialect, and the slaves around her didn't understand it. But Wu Yahan's Da Zhou said very well. Hearing Qin Yining's words, although he was afraid of Anari's anger, he was also very grateful, and only stood up after saluting.
The slaves could understand the Tatar dialect, but they couldn't understand what Qin Yining said. They all understood the quarrel between the Khan, his concubine, and Lu Heng. Now that Qin Yining is so tolerant, their impression of her has changed for the better. .
These slaves were former nobles of the defeated tribes, who had been enslaved by Ana Rishen for a long time, and felt sympathy for Qin Yining's current situation. What's more, this is a woman who looks like a fairy. Even if she is the concubine of the God of War from the Great Zhou Dynasty, it cannot change the impression in their hearts now.
Qin Yining was invited to Lu Heng's side.
Anari suppressed her anger and ordered someone to give Qin Yining a horse and a bow and arrow, and she couldn't wait to shout, "Let's go!"
In the mountains, she has some way to kill her!
