Chapter 1010: Entering Baoshan and returning empty-handed
Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
She was a little glad that she had volunteered to travel to Xiazhou this time. If she hadn't tricked Ashina Zhu Xie to come to Suizhou, and if he was really persuaded by Wang Shaoqiu to lead troops to assist Luoyang, Yu Wenye would have The side will definitely face a lot of pressure, and the outcome will be really hard to say.
Seeing that there was a smile on her lips, Lu Xiao said: "Are you happy?"
Shang Ruyi raised his head and glanced at her: "Ah."
< br>
"Are you glad that you brought them all here, so that His Highness, Prince Qin, will be safe in Luoyang?"
"...Hmm."
"But you have to know, you It also brings danger."
Shang Ruyi smiled and said: "If you say he is in Luoyang, it will be the same. It's not necessarily safe. There is no absolute safety on the battlefield, but I am indeed glad that as his wife, I can help him. As the princess of Qin, I can do my little bit for the country, and my efforts over the years will not be in vain. A life of fine clothes and fine food, calling slaves and maids.”
“…”
"As for danger, I knew before setting off that this trip would be extremely dangerous. Now it seems that there is just one more Wang Shaoqiu."
Shang Ruyi turned to look at Lu Xiao and said : "You, afraid Him?"
Lu Xiao's face darkened: "How could I be afraid of him?"
"..."
"I just don't like this person's eyes. .”
"Eyes?"
"His eyes seem to be able to see a hole in a person's body. They were like this when he was in Jiangdu."
"Oh?"
Shang Ruyi raised her eyebrows slightly - she didn't think there was anything wrong with Wang Shaoqiu's eyes. At most, the cunning light was unsettling. , but Luxiao’s feeling is actually not surprising. She was born with such beauty that most men and even many women in the world would not be able to take their eyes away when they see her. Speaking of which, she should have long been used to being treated like this. He has always dealt with scrutiny, hunting, and even offense, but how could he care so much about Wang Shaoqiu's gaze alone?
Shang Ruyi thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, what are they here for? They definitely don't dare to do anything to you."
Luxiao was noncommittal and just said: "Oh."
But she still didn't look relieved. After thinking for a while, she said: "You were planning to use Zuo Gong's suspicious tomb as bait to lure them here from the beginning. . Now they are here, but with only this team, the crisis in Xiazhou has not been resolved, but they have met with us. If you get what they want, do you think that Zhu Xie Khan will spare you lightly?"
After that, she raised her head and looked around again. The more than 20 guards accompanying Shang Ruyi were already there? After the assignments were completed, they were doing their own things in an orderly manner, but everyone had a solemn expression on their faces, and a tense atmosphere enveloped the wilderness.
Lu Xiao said: "If he wants to take action, the people you lead will not be able to resist."
"..."
"What are you going to give him?"
Shang Ruyi also glanced around, but did not accept the words. He only said: "Go to rest early. Since they are already here, starting from tomorrow, we I’m afraid it will be difficult to have peace.”
Seeing that she didn’t intend to say anything, Lu Xiao could only return to her tent with doubts.
Just as Shang Ruyi said, even that night, listening to the howling wind in the fields outside and the howling of wolves in the distant valley, Lu Xiao stayed up almost all night and opened his eyes wide. With a pair of empty eyes, he watched the dark tent roof gradually illuminated by the morning light that came in. Then the wind subsided, but someone began to move and talk again.
She put on her clothes and washed up briefly with some things in the tent. When she walked out, she saw Shang Ruyi and Lei Yu sitting on the open space in front of them. The good porridge was delivered to Shang Ruyi, and he turned around to serve another bowl to Lei Yu.
The two of them were drinking porridge. Shang Ruyi turned around and saw Lu Xiao coming over and said, "You're up."
"Yes."
Lu Xiao nodded and looked again Looking at Lei Yu, although she was a little surprised that she was obviously from the Turks, she came here to have breakfast with Shang Ruyi, but she The two of them were very close, so she naturally couldn't say anything. Shang Ruyi added, "I'm worried that you won't sleep well, so I asked them not to call you. The porridge is ready, just have a bowl."
Luxiao nodded again: "Okay."
So, Wuxue also brought her a bowl of porridge.
Lu Xiao sat down next to Shang Ruyi, while drinking porridge, he turned to look at the camp adjacent to them. The Turks got up earlier than them and went to hunt a wolf in the valley ahead and roasted it on the fire. , the bonfire was roaring, the bloody meat was roasted until it was sizzling with oil, and the aroma of meat floated in the wind. Although it made some people salivate, Lei Yu's face did not move at all, but he drank from the bowl very attentively. The porridge inside.
After a while, a Turkic soldier crossed the invisible boundary between the two camps and walked over. The guards here immediately looked at him nervously, but saw him walking all the way to Lei Yu and offering him a bowl of roasted meat. Get the fragrant meat: "Ketun, this is the Khan's order "Brought to you."
Lei Yu said: "I don't want to eat it."
After that, he looked around again and said, "Put it down."
< br>The soldier put the bowl aside, saluted again, then turned and went back.
Lei Yu raised her head and said to Shang Ruyi: "If you don't want to eat it, just give it to your subordinates."
Shang Ruyi smiled, and she also knew that this was Ashina Zhu Xie's "Come on." "Not to be disrespectful." He asked Wuxue to take it out and share it with the people below. Naturally, the guards were not polite and started to feast on it one by one. Shang Ruyi asked again: "Are you still the same as before?" What she was talking about was naturally her living habits, because the last time she went to Turkic Yazhang, she found that under the pampering and care of Iasu, Lei Yu lived a good life. Life was almost the same as in the Central Plains. Even if she wanted to put pepper in the mutton soup, Iasu would go to the grassland and stop the passing Hu merchants to buy it for her.
Lei Yu was silent for a moment and said softly "Hmm".
Shang Ruyi smiled and said: "That's good."
Speaking of which, from the first time I met Lei Yu, she didn't give people the impression of being a gentle and amiable woman, let alone the good wife and mother that ordinary people thought. However, she enjoyed the most Her husband's love and care, even in places she didn't know, there were people who were in love with her.
Things in this world cannot be explained clearly.
Lv Xiao on the side did not speak, but looked at Lei Yu with his extraordinarily alert eyes, and looked at the situation of the Turkic camp from time to time.
After a while, everyone ran out of breakfast.
Wuxue took the dishes used by several people and took them to wash. At the Turkic camp, the bonfire was also extinguished. The thick smoke was blown by a gust of wind and passed over their camp. Shang Ruyi just coughed. After making two sounds, he turned his head and saw Ashina Zhuxie's tall figure crossing the invisible boundary in the middle and walking into their camp.
The surrounding guards immediately became nervous, and all of them stared at him with burning eyes.
However, when he came over, he walked directly in front of Lei Yu, and said gently in a low voice: "Go back."
Lei Yu looked up at him.
Ashina Zhuxie said: "If you want to come over for breakfast, I will accept your request, but you still have to go back to your own place."
"..."
"Besides, they have their own things to do, so don't disturb them."
Hearing the last few words, Lei Yu's eyes flickered, and then he glanced at Shang Ruyi, with a complicated expression. Stand up slowly.
At this moment, Shang Ruyi had a smile on his face and looked at Ashina Zhuxie and said, "Khan seems to know that I came to this place to do something."
< br>Ashina Zhuxie looked down at her and said, "Didn't you say last night that the war in Xiazhou was going on and that Ben Khan would I'm so excited to come to this place. The war in Luoyang is in full swing, but you come to this place. If you don't have something to do, how can you be so excited?"
Shang Ruyi was a little surprised. It was not an accident. He knew that he was " I have something to do." He was surprised that the Turkic Khan's tongue was so sharp.
Why haven't you noticed it before?
She thought for a moment and forced a smile. Just as she was about to say something, Ashina Zhuxie said lightly: "Now that Tianding Mountain is right in front of you, I will let you get straight to the point. Shang Ruyi , you don’t have many followers on this trip. If you intend to hide your whereabouts, my people may not be able to I found you."
"..."
"Even if the people of this Khan discover your whereabouts, if you deliberately conceal it, the people of this Khan may not know that you are coming to Sui. What does the state do.”
“…”
"Today I left Xiazhou where the fierce fighting was going on and came here because of the news you released."
"..."
"That is, Zuo Gong's suspected tomb!"
Hear this Although Shang Ruyi was not surprised by these four words, her heartbeat started to beat violently. The beautiful faces of Lu Xiao standing next to her and Lei Yu standing next to Ashina Zhu Xie showed surprise. There was even more of a look of fear.
None of them expected that Ashina Zhuxie, who had said nothing when they saw them last night, would speak directly at this time. In this way, there would be no room for maneuver.
Shang Ruyi said: "Khan, he is a refreshing person."
Ashina Zhuxie sneered: "If you want to play any conspiracy with me, I can also accompany you, but this time , Ben Khan is not in the mood.”
"..."
"So, since you used Zuo Gong's Suspicious Tomb to lure us here, it's best to get the things from Zuo Gong's Suspicious Tomb. Otherwise——"
Shang Ruyi said: "Otherwise, what?"
Ashina Zhuxie said: "I will not enter Treasure Mountain and come back empty-handed. If I can't find what I want, then taking some people back would be a compensation."
"... ..."
"After all, this is not your first time going to the Turks."
Hearing this, the guards around them felt the danger and immediately stepped forward and stared nervously. Watching them.
Shang Ruyi raised his hand to stop them from taking action.
Although Ashina Zhu Xie came to their camp alone, he remained unmoved at the moment, calmly staring at Shang Ruyi's equally calm eyes, and said: "Or maybe the fierce battle in Luoyang is going on, and I don't know who the great leader is. His Royal Highness, King Qin of the Sheng Dynasty, would like to see his Princess Qin on the battlefield."
