Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 663 Accountability

When Lei Yu heard this, he immediately frowned.

Everyone on the grassland knew it, and she knew it even better. Ashina Tsari was cruel and cruel, and he would retaliate even when he was angry. He did this to his own subjects, let alone his enemies.

What's more, she is the wife of Yu Wenye who once blinded his eyes with an arrow in Yanmen County.

Even if he barely managed to save Shang Ruyi last night, she is in Western Turks and is always on the edge of a knife's edge. Once Ashina Tsari sees her, he will be angry. Once he is angry, Shang Ruyi's life will be in danger. Therefore, last night she repeatedly reminded Shang Ruyi not to leave his tent easily even if he was free to move, and to avoid meeting Ashina Tsari.

Unexpectedly, Ashina Zari would let the two of them go to today's bonfire party.

Lei Yu vaguely felt that he was afraid that the intentions behind it were not good.

Thinking of this, she said: "My friend traveled a long way to Turks. She fell ill last night and got better just now. Don't let her go to the bonfire party tonight."

Ashina Zhuxie said: "That's what I told my father."

"That--"

"But Father Khan insisted."

"..."

"I think you'd better let her pass."

Ashina Zhuxie looked over Lei Yu's head and looked at Shang Ruyi, who was blocked behind her with a solemn expression. Then he looked at Lei Yu's frowning eyebrows and said, "Father Khan may only embarrass her if he lets her go." ; But if she doesn’t go over, Father Khan won’t just make things difficult for her.”

"...!"

Shang Ruyi's breathing tightened.

In fact, just now, when she heard Prince Zhu Xie say that Khan Zali wanted them to go to the bonfire party together, she knew in her heart that tonight's event was unavoidable. After all, as Yu Wenye's Wife, no matter what the relationship between herself and Yu Wenye is, Ashina Zari cannot let her come to Western Turks and live peacefully.

But I didn't expect that Ashina Zhuxie was just a rough man on the grassland, but he had such a meticulous mind.

This person is extraordinary...

With this thought in mind, she looked up again and met the worried eyes of Lei Yu who came back to China and looked at her worriedly. She obviously understood what Ashina Zhu Xie meant and was worried about Shang Ruyi's safety, but she didn't have much room to refuse. , Shang Ruyi did not put her in trouble, just smiled lightly and said: "It's a blessing, not a curse, but it's a curse that can't be avoided. It just so happens that I haven't participated in a bonfire party on the grassland for many years, so I can take this opportunity to go and have a look. .”

Hearing this, Ashina Zhuxie was slightly startled: "Have you ever been to the grassland?"

Lei Yu's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly shook his head gently to Shang Ruyi. Shang Ruyi came back to his senses - the people in the Western Turks only knew that Yu Wenye was married, and they only knew that she was Yu Wenye's wife, but they did not I don’t know, Yu Wenye’s wife is her, Shang Ruyi.

That is, Shang Ruohong's daughter.

At that time, Shang Ruohong and Princess Qiancheng joined forces to split the Eastern and Western Turks, which greatly reduced their strength and blocked Ashina Tsari's plan to go south. In comparison, Yu Wenye's revenge in Yanmen County, It seems that it is not as deep as his hatred with the Western Turks.

If they were to know that she was Shang Ruohong's daughter, with Ashina Zari's character of seeking revenge, the sheep that would be roasted at the bonfire tonight would not be the same sheep.

So she said perfunctorily: "I, I just heard of it before."

"Oh?"

Ashina Zhu Xie raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at her again, his eyes flickering but he said nothing. He was silent for a while and then said: "No matter what, it is Father Khan's order, and you must respect it. Hurry over. .”

After saying that, he glanced at Lei Yu, whose face turned slightly pale, then turned and left.

As soon as he left, Lei Yu immediately turned around and said to Shang Ruyi in a low voice with cold sweat on his face: "I almost forgot about this. Your identity must be kept secret. The Western Turks only know that you are Young Master Yuwen. Madam, Princess Qin doesn’t know your origin, so you must be careful not to let the truth slip, otherwise——”

Shang Ruyi nodded: "I understand."

"Then, follow me first. I'll find some Turkic clothes for you to change into, so that you don't stand out too much."

"it is good."

Since he was not on a mission, he could not talk about the integrity of his clothes. In addition, his clothes were indeed a little thin compared to the bitter cold of the grassland. Shang Ruyi did not embarrass himself, so he followed Lei Yu and put on a long leather jacket. Her neck was tightly wrapped up to her ankles, only a hemp rope was tied around her waist, and she put on a pair of leather boots. Except for her bun, which was still the style of a Central Plains woman that Lei Yu helped her style, Shang Ruyi already looked like a Turks.

Then, the two people left the tent and walked to the beach of Cangtou River.

At this time, the sun was about to set, and the golden net that had been spread on the grassland just now was gradually put away. However, the light did not dim, because the surrounding Turks all held torches in their hands, although they did not light the pile. In the middle of the river beach, there was a firewood pile that was almost as big as a tent. However, they still lit several small bonfires around the firewood pile, and the firelight once again illuminated the vast grassland.

As the sky gets darker, there are more and more people around.

Because of his status, Shang Ruyi followed Lei Yu and sat at the front of the crowd. Behind him were almost all heads. All of them were wearing thick leather jackets and talking and laughing loudly. The cold and damp air was filled with laughter and laughter. There was a sour smell of sweat. Although Shang Ruyi was not used to it, it was not uncomfortable. He just sat quietly on the leather felt and whispered to Lei Yu from time to time.

After a while, a biting cold wind blew.

Shang Ruyi shuddered, and when he turned his head, he saw the tall and burly figure of Ashina Zari. He led the princes and nobles of Western Turks who accompanied him in the king's tent yesterday and slowly walked over and helped him. Holding one of his arms was still the enchanting Mrs. Jia Yuan, while Ashina Zhuxie lowered his head and followed him silently.

Seeing him approaching, the Turks around him immediately stood up and saluted the Khan.

Today, Ashina Zari's face is much better than yesterday in the king's tent. He slowly walked to the main seat and sat down. Mrs. Jia Yuan still knelt behind him, while Ashina Zhuye They sat on the leather felt on the other side. As soon as they sat down, a servant immediately brought freshly roasted, sizzling and oily lamb and placed it in front of them, as well as a large jar of wine.

Ashina Tsari waved his hand: "Light the fire!"

With an order, the people standing around the pyre threw all their torches onto the tall pyre.

Just listen to the sound of "boom" and the flames rise.

Shang Ruyi only felt his eyes light up, and then a wave of heat hit his face, and even bigger was the sound coming from behind them. As soon as they saw the bonfire lit, the Turkic people around them immediately cheered, some danced, and some sang. , there was constant laughter and laughter around the bonfire, and the princes and nobles sitting around the bonfire also began to pick up wine glasses, and for a while they drank and drank, and it was very lively.

Shang Ruyi and Lei Yu were not in the mood to sing and dance with them, so they just sat quietly in their seats, feeling the warmth of the flames blowing in with the wind, making her break into a fine sweat. .

But soon, there was a hint of coldness in the warmth.It was Ashina Tsari's gaze.

After sitting down, he drank and looked around. After inspecting his people, the cold and sharp light from his remaining eye fell on Shang Ruyi, and his fierce eyes It was like a handful, and it scraped her face hard, as if it wanted to cut off a piece of flesh.

At this moment, a pair of soft hands held a wine glass and presented it to him.

Ashina Tsari turned around and saw that it was Mrs. Nagamoto. As soon as he saw her, the evil and fierce eyes of the Tsari Khan faded away. He took the palm-sized wine glass and drank it. After a big mouthful, Mrs. Jia Yuan said a few soft words in his ear, which made him happy and laughing loudly.

Khan smiled like this, and the people around him became even more excited, singing and dancing more and more enthusiastically.

In such a cheerful atmosphere, Lei Yu whispered in Shang Ruyi's ear: "Drink a few more drinks. When they are drunk and can't recognize each other, we will go back."

Shang Ruyi nodded hurriedly.

But at this moment, in the distance, on the other side of the Cangtou River, there was suddenly a messy sound of horse hooves.

Although the people here were singing and dancing, they were very alert. Immediately, a group of people rushed to the river to carefully identify the person coming. Ashina Tsari also stopped drinking heavily and frowned at the dark landscape on the other side of the river. In the dark night, a piece of fire gradually approached.

After a while, a soldier rushed to Ashina Tsari, knelt down and said: "Khan!"

Ashina Zari asked: "What's the matter?"

The soldier said: "It's General Pasha. He came back from Taiyuan with his people!"

"what!?"

Upon hearing this, Ashina Tsari's eyes suddenly became sharp again, and the people around him who were still laughing, singing and dancing stopped one after another. For a while, the entire river beach became quiet.

When Shang Ruyi heard the word "Taiyuan", he immediately became energetic.

Although she didn't know who the general Pasha was, since he came back from Taiyuan, it was obvious that he was the garrison Ashina Tsari sent to Taiyuan to collude with Wang Shao and his brothers.

Now, since Taiyuan has been lost, these people are naturally the defeated generals. Unexpectedly, they came back?

When the surrounding Turks heard these words, they all had different expressions on their faces. When Shang Ruyi raised his head, in addition to seeing Ashina Tsari suddenly showing anger again, he also saw When Mrs. Jia Yuan arrived behind him, the expression on her face seemed to change as the firelight flickered.

Also, Ashina Zhuxie, who has been sitting next to them, has been silent since the beginning of the bonfire party, and does not drink much. He only looks at Lei Yu and his direction from time to time, and his face immediately changes. He sank for a moment, but did not show any unnecessary emotions. He only narrowed his eyes slightly.

At this time, a "pop" sound was heard!
I saw Ashina Zari slamming the wine glass in his hand on the table. Suddenly, the iron cup was dented by him, and the wine splashed. Ashina Zari said with a ferocious expression: "They , you dare to come back!”

Seeing him like this, all the princes and nobles around him became quiet. Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, not daring to take a breath.

Ashina Tsari said: "Tie this person up for me!"

"Yes!"

The soldier took the order and immediately ran down.

The entire bonfire party was so quiet at this moment that only the sound of the wind and the neighing of war horses could be heard from time to time in the distance. After a while, a sturdy man tied his hands and stumbled over, until he walked to Ashi In front of that person, he fell to his knees with a thud.

"Khan!"

This man is the garrison of Taiyuan, the Turkic general Pasha.

Shang Ruyi carefully identified him, but he didn't recognize him. Moreover, he was facing him from the side, so he could only barely see the appearance of this man. He was strong, with a beard, and the leather armor he wore had several cuts. , also stained with blood. Apparently, he had to escape and return here after experiencing a bloody battle in Taiyuan.

Seeing him, Ashina Tsari smiled instead of being angry and said: "Pasha, you are still alive..."

As soon as he heard these words, the Pasha general trembled, and immediately he fell down and kowtowed towards Ashina Tsari, saying repeatedly: "The last general deserves to die!"

"You deserve to die!"

Ashina Zari gritted his teeth, as ferocious as a bloodthirsty wolf, and said viciously: "Taiyuan, it was handed over to you, but you lost it? If you don't deserve to die, who should!"

After saying that, he said no more and waved his hand: "Cut him!"

Immediately after the order was given, several warriors came forward with swords on their shoulders, surrounded the general Pasha and wanted to take action.

"Khan, Khan wait a minute!"

Because General Pasha had his hands tied behind his back and kowtowed, he fell to the ground. At this moment, he could only struggle and could not speak idioms. The person who spoke was Mrs. Jia Yuan behind Ashina Tsari. She said softly: " Khan, General Pasha deserves to die for losing Taiyuan and losing his troops, but Khan also needs to find out what is the reason why he lost Taiyuan when he was allowed to guard it."

After saying that, a pair of charming eyes gently glanced to the side.

"Don't ever wrong a good person."

As she looked over, Ashina Zhu Xie narrowed his eyes slightly, and his face became cold and dangerous.

After hearing her words, it was as if he had received a revelation. The general Pasha, whose face had been buried in the ground, suddenly raised his head from the grass. His forehead was covered with mud and rainwater, and he was in a miserable state, but he He struggled and said: "The general deserves to die, but if the reinforcements sent by Khan to Taiyuan can arrive as scheduled, Taiyuan will not be lost!"

Upon hearing this, Ashina Tsari's eyes suddenly widened.

The next moment, he turned his head and looked at his eldest son angrily.

He regretted the whip yesterday after he pulled it out, and later he let Ashina Zhuxie go down in a mixture of regret and anger. However, today he heard that the reason why Taiyuan was lost was precisely because his reinforcements did not arrive as scheduled. , anger rushed up like a flame again, burning his reason and the few remaining regrets and feelings.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Zhu Xie, what do you say!"

Sorry, I have to do some work today, so the update is late.
