Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 1003 She came to me herself
It was very quiet in the big tent, so he could clearly hear the sounds outside, which were also very familiar to Lei Yu in these days - the wind blowing, the footsteps and shouts of soldiers on patrol and training, and the neighing of war horses.

Everything was in order, without the hustle and bustle before an army set out.

But judging from Ashina Zhuye's attitude just now, if he was really planning to go south to deal with Yuwen Ye, he should have ordered the army to march out immediately instead of speaking to him slowly. His expression didn't seem like a threat, but rather like - a test.

He was watching her reaction.

Thinking of this, Lei Yu said again: "If Khan really decides to go, no one can stop him."

Sure enough, when Ashina Zhuxie heard Lei Yu say this, a light flashed in his eyes.

He seemed very satisfied with his Khatun's cleverness, and seemed a little regretful that he did not see more of his emotions. He said: "You and I, after all, have this little empathy."

Lei Yu frowned slightly, but did not respond. Instead, he said, "So, you don't plan to go?"

Ashina Zhuxie glanced at her again and said, "Don't you want to see your old friend?"

He suddenly changed the subject. Lei Yu was a little confused for a moment, but he still keenly grasped the word "old friend". Thinking that he did not intend to send troops to deal with Yuwen Ye immediately, he asked: "Who is the old friend you are talking about?"

Ashina Zhuxie said: "It is as you wish."

"she?"

When Lei Yu heard Shang Ruyi's name, his eyes lit up immediately, and then he became alert again: "Can I see her if I want to?"

"..."

"She is the Princess of Qin of the Great Sheng Dynasty. Can you still take me to Chang'an?"

"That's not necessary,"

Ashina Zhuxie said calmly: "This time, she came to me on her own initiative."

Lei Yu immediately frowned: "What do you mean? Could it be——"

Her face changed, as if she had thought of something, and Ashina Zhuxie said calmly: "Yes, I told you before that Princess Qiancheng asked Yuwen Yuan for help and asked them to send more troops to help Xiazhou, and they did send a group of people."

Lei Yu's face was filled with disbelief: "Are you saying that the person who came is Ruyi?"

Ashina Zhuxie nodded: "Not bad."

"how can that be?!"

Lei Yu was a little confused for a moment. When they knew that Princess Qiancheng asked Yuwen Yuan for help, they all thought that Chang'an would send Yuwen Ye. After all, he had fought with them several times and was familiar with each other's fighting style. But even if Yuwen Ye was attacking Luoyang and was too busy to do anything else, there should be other generals to lead the troops. Why would they let the Princess of Qin do this?

Lei Yu looked at Ashina Zhuxie with an incredible expression: "You, didn't lie to me."

Ashina Zhuxie looked at her: "I'm not lying to you."

Lei Yu's eyes were slightly flustered, and she subconsciously moved her sight to the side. She immediately saw He Du, who was sleeping on the couch, seemed to have been awakened by their softly restrained conversation. He turned over, rubbed his eyes, and opened them with difficulty. She hurriedly got up and sat beside the bed, gently patting the child's back and softly saying, "Sleep a little longer."

"Well, um..."

He Du mumbled twice in a daze and closed his eyes again. Ashina Zhuxie walked slowly to the bedside, seemed to be very satisfied with this warm scene, then looked down at Lei Yu's frowning brows and whispered: "When she was rescued, we didn't have this child yet. This time when she comes and sees He Du, and you and me like this, will she be surprised?"

"..."

"Do you want to see her?"

Lei Yu took a deep breath, raised his head, and said in a complex and low tone: "What do you want to do to her?"

Ashina Zhuxie smiled faintly and said, "She only brought a team of less than a hundred people with her. It would be easy to capture her or kill her. It depends on whether you want to see her or not."

Lei Yu immediately said: "I won't let you hurt her!"

Ashina Zhuxie said calmly, "Okay."

Lei Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief. After calming down, he immediately recalled what he had just said, and a look of surprise appeared on his face: "You said, she only brought less than a hundred people with her when she left Chang'an?"

This sounds like a joke.

Ashina Zhuxie said: "That's what the spies in the front said in the urgent report."

Lei Yu frowned and murmured: "How is it possible..."

Her doubts were naturally also Ashina Zhuxie's doubts. A cold light flashed in his eyes and he said, "Perhaps, she is not coming for Xiazhou entirely. Or perhaps, she has other people with her and just avoided our eyes and ears. But no matter what, she left Chang'an at this time and headed this way. She must be ready to see us again."

"..."

"Do you want to see her?"

Hearing him asking her again, this time there was no threatening murderous intent in his tone, but he was really asking her, Lei Yu hesitated and looked at Ashina Zhuxie for a while, took a deep breath and said: "No matter what, I just want you to promise me not to hurt her."

Ashina Zhuxie smiled faintly: "I have already promised you just now, there is no need to repeat it."

"..."

"But if she really wants to be our enemy——"

At this point, his eyes suddenly turned cold, staring at Lei Yu: "Don't forget, even if you are wearing Han clothes now, you are already a Turkic, and a Turkic Khatun!"

Lei Yu's breath stopped, and after a while, he slowly lowered his head.

Although he didn't know that his whereabouts had been completely known to others, Shang Ruyi did not hide anything along the way. When the weather was good, he and Lu Xiao got off the carriage and rode directly on horseback. Even though the sun was scorching and the wind blew yellow sand across their faces like needles, the feeling of speeding still made them in a good mood, and sometimes they ran for most of the day.

At this time, under the scorching sun, the two rode for a while and finally stopped under the shade of a tree. Shang Ruyi panted and looked at Lv Xiao, who was panting and sweating, and smiled, "I didn't expect you to be so good at riding a horse."

Lu Xiao smiled, but she didn't take her words as a mockery. After taking a breath, she said, "I have been everywhere and run everywhere to escape before. If I didn't know how to ride a horse, I would have been caught by them long ago."

Shang Ruyi nodded.

As the two talked, Wo Xue and the other guards followed behind. Shang Ruyi looked up at the surrounding scenery and felt that it looked familiar, so he asked, "Where are we in front?"

Everyone, I have had some health problems recently, which has affected my writing, so I would like to take two days off to recuperate. Please forgive me.
