To Rule in a Turbulent World

Chapter 256 Volume 5 8 Sounds of Ganzhou

At daybreak, they walked out of the valley and walked a little further to leave White Wolf Mountain. Everyone was exhausted. You Miao looked at the towering mountains and suddenly said, "I'll go up and have a look."

You Miao climbed up to the high place, between the peaks at the entrance of Bailang Mountain, looking forward, you can see the vast tundra, and there are already villages on the tundra.Batu also climbed up and stood side by side with You Miao.

"Look there." Batu said to You Miao.

You Miao turned around, and from this cliff, you could just see a stream like a jade belt under the sun.And at the end of the creek is the campsite where they roosted last night.

There, a group of soldiers were gathering in the campsite, which had become little black dots.Batu couldn't help panting, and clenched his fists tightly.But You Miao had a premonition of danger, and said to Batu, "Hurry up, I'm afraid they will catch up again."

Even so, You Miao knew that Nie Dan had been protecting them all the time, so he must be able to deal with the pursuers, while Batu led the guards to leave the valley in a hurry and fled along the plain.Just when You Miao was thinking about how to report the news, a group of Tatar soldiers with thousands of people hurried over on Pingyuan Road.

Too bad, You Miao couldn't tell if it was a friend or an enemy, but when he looked at Batu, Batu signaled his composure.

"He came to look for me." Batu said.

"But how do they know..." You Miao frowned.

When the people came, they got off their horses one after another and shouted anxiously. Batu was surrounded by a group of people and got on his horse. Li Zhifeng understood the Tatar language and explained to You Miao: "Batu sneaked out secretly. Queen Baoyin didn't know He escaped from the palace and followed the guards to see the hunting ground."

So that's the case... You Miao is really thankful, just thinking about going back after such a long journey, I really want to give my life here.

Batu didn't say a word along the way, but when he returned to Xiling Palace, the Empress Dowager Baoyin was furious.

Although You Miao couldn't understand Baoyin's Tatar language, she knew that the problem was very serious this time, and she could imagine what the Queen Mother would say.Baoyin scolded Batu severely, and finally turned to You Miao and Li Zhifeng, and asked a question in Tatar. Lan Moyin had a grim expression and translated it into Chinese.

"Prince Shanado, the queen mother asked you what you came to Tatar for? This matter has nothing to do with Quanrong."

"I didn't know about it before." Li Zhifeng replied, "It just so happens that I did it unintentionally."

The Empress Dowager Baoyin's voice softened, and she gave a word to her side. The attendant brought a mat and asked Li Zhifeng to sit down. Li Zhifeng sat cross-legged, while You Miao knelt aside to serve. Lan Moyin looked at the two and seemed to understand their relationship.

The attendant handed the milk tea, You Miao took it with both hands, and then passed it to Li Zhifeng, Li Zhifeng thought about it, and said to Lan Moyin: "I have been in the Southern Dynasty for a long time, and now I am able to return to my hometown. Both the Queen Mother and the Khan know about it."

Lan Moyin translated it, saw the face of Empress Dowager Baoyin, and then said to Li Zhifeng: "General He Motie'er has reported this matter."

Li Zhifeng nodded and said: "That's right, this time when I return to Da'an, I just want to recover the whole Quanrong clan."

Lan Moyin asked coldly: "How do you prove that you have nothing to do with Xi Kelan's assassination?"

Li Zhifeng replied indifferently: "If there is any relationship, why should I save Batu Khan?"

Batu said something, but was reprimanded sharply by the Empress Dowager Baoyin. You Miao probably understood it, but Batu was explaining that Li Zhifeng was a good person.

After all, at the streamside, when Li Zhifeng saluted, he did it as a courtier. This kind of etiquette is only used by people with high status. Li Zhifeng has only paid homage to his father King Quanrong with this ceremony in his life, followed by You Miao.You Miao looked at Batu, gestured with her eyes, and shook her head slowly, meaning that you just know it in your heart and don't say it.

Batu nodded imperceptibly. Naturally, this small gesture of the two of them could not be hidden from the Empress Dowager Baoyin. After they left, there must have been some quarrels between mother and son, but that was not You Miao's concern.

You Miao also found that most of the time the Empress Dowager Baoyin did not speak, but Lan Moyin asked questions and translated them for Baoyin, which shows how favored Lan Moyin is.

Lan Moyin asked again: "Since you and Darleko, Xi Kelan and others are in conflict, why do you still know the details of the assassination?"

Li Zhifeng raised his eyes and replied, "Is it strange that Xi Kelan also has my old department?"

Lan Moyin translated it to the Queen Mother Baoyin. After a while, the Queen Mother Baoyin sighed, and Lan Moyin asked again: "What are your plans?"

"What Shanado wants to ask is, what are your plans?" Li Zhifeng asked bluntly: "We Quanrong people can say whatever we want. I saved your Khan. Without us, the seriousness of the consequences. When I come to Da’an this time, I only intend to deal with the traitors in the clan and extend my hand to help. It’s all because of Fang Sheng’s relationship with Batu, and now it’s all on my head?”

After being questioned by Li Zhifeng, Lan Moyin's face became even more ugly. She looked at Li Zhifeng, then at You Miao, and finally explained her words to the Empress Dowager Baoyin.

The Empress Dowager Baoyin put down the tea bowl, said a few words slowly, hesitated a bit, and finally smiled at Li Zhifeng.

Lan Moyin said reluctantly: "You... Shanado, don't be so rude, you are a prince, and I am also a princess, and I don't owe you anything."

Li Zhifeng's face was frosty, just listening quietly, Batu smoothed things over and said: "My sister can't speak, Shanado, don't take it to heart..."

Lan Moyin glared at Batu, and Batu had no choice but to stay silent again. You Miao couldn't help laughing, and the atmosphere eased a little with his smile.

Lan Moyin said: "Shanado, the Queen Mother said that she has always respected your father and you Quanrong tribe. After your brother Daleke came to Da'an, he also made good friends with the Tatar royal family... this matter... "

Batu suddenly murmured a series of words, You Miao was slightly moved, Lan Moyin sighed, and said, "We Tatars may not be able to help you."

Batu was angry, and he spoke to Lan Moyin, but was stopped by the Queen Mother Baoyin with his eyes. You Miao immediately understood that the original words of the Queen Mother Baoyin should be to thank Li Zhifeng for what he did for the Tatars, and asked him what he could do place to help.But Lan Moyin knew very well that this matter was not trivial and involved too much, He Motie'er colluded with Daleke, it was not something that could be done with a single statement, so she didn't dare to agree randomly, and postponed the discussion.

Li Zhifeng's face relaxed a little, nodded and said: "It doesn't matter, Batu Khan is not only the emperor of Tatar, but also our friend. We are all the people of the White Wolf God, and we should help each other. There is no one on the grassland who doesn't need wings." Birds, and no man who doesn't need friends. That's what I should do."

Lan Moyin translated to Empress Dowager Baoyin, and Empress Dowager Baoyin nodded directly to Li Zhifeng, smiled, and said something, which You Miao knew meant "thank you".

It is the habit of nomadic peoples to communicate. Li Zhifeng spoke with a proverb, and Batu also had to reply with a proverb. Batu replied: "The lone wolf is at a loss, and the pack of wolves is invincible. Thank you for your help, Shanado, this I will always remember this kindness in my heart.”

"You're welcome." Li Zhifeng got up and said, "I still have a merciless request. I risked my life and exposed my identity, so I could easily be counterattacked by Xi Kelan..."

Lan Moyin stopped Li Zhifeng and said, "We will not be ungrateful, and we will definitely keep this secret for you."

"That's very good." Li Zhifeng nodded, and gestured to You Miao. You Miao nodded in understanding, followed Li Zhifeng to leave, and left Xiling Palace.
