Chapter 972: Behind the Artemisia

Shengheng was silent for a while, and then slowly spoke: "These mothers-in-law have daughters...... I'm to blame for this. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info I didn't think it well in advance to send them to you, and now you're safe and sound, if you ...... I'm not going to have a good time in this life. ā€

Yunyang didn't speak, just peeked at Shengheng, and saw that his expression was solemn and guilty, as if he was afraid of the cruel actions made by these mothers-in-law, and did not suspect other places. So Yunyang can be regarded as completely relieved - as long as he doesn't pursue the matter of the passing boy, his heart is finally steady.

After that, Shengheng had a few more gossips with Yunyang, just asking her what else she was uncomfortable with, what she liked to eat, and what she used, and Yunyang answered them one by one. It was rare for Sheng Heng to see her so well-behaved and cooperative, the corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up, although he didn't talk much, his eyes were always half a step away from Yunyang. Even if he was sometimes discovered by Yunyang, he turned his head to look away out of disguise, but after a while, as if he was being sucked by a magnet, his eyes fell on Yunyang again and couldn't move away.

Yunyang was furious by him, but it was not easy to have a seizure, until he couldn't bear it anymore, so he said timidly: "I tossed all night last night, and I was really tired." I wanted to rest, but I always wanted to tell you the ins and outs of this matter, so I didn't sleep......"

Shengheng slapped his thigh as if he had woken up from a dream: "Uh...... Then you have a good rest, and when you are well, we will go back to the tribe together. ā€

When Yunyang heard this, he hurriedly got up and saluted: "Then, the Great Khan walks slowly." ā€

Shengheng stood up a little embarrassed, stunned for a moment, and then put his hands behind his back and said "um" and strode out of the tent.

Seeing that Shengheng had walked away, Yunyang said to the mother-in-law who had been waiting beside him: "I'm going to rest, you can go out too." ā€

This mother-in-law stood aside just now and listened to the ins and outs of the whole thing, and she was also shocked into a cold sweat. Only then did she understand why Yunyang asked her if she had a daughter and how old she was as soon as they met, it turned out that it was because she had a lesson from the past and was always wary of her.

But she could also see that the Great Khan was very interested in this prostration sacrifice, so he almost took it in his mouth to protect it. Therefore, he must not offend the noble person in front of him, if she is slightly dissatisfied, the Great Khan will definitely not spare her.

So as soon as Yunyang spoke, she hurriedly responded: "Yes, yes, bow and sacrifice to you and rest, I, I, let's go out." ā€

Yun Yang was quite in awe of herself when she heard her tone, and she was also strange in her heart: "What's wrong with you, why is your voice shaking." Is it uncomfortable? If you're not feeling well, you don't have to come, I can take care of myself. ā€

"No, no, don't drive me away!" The mother-in-law almost cried: "I, I'm fine." I'll be waiting outside the tent all the time, and call me whenever you need me. ā€

After saying that, the mother-in-law hurriedly retreated.

Yun Yang watched her leave in surprise, and didn't go to her heart, so she closed her clothes and lay down, and fell asleep after a while.

The mother-in-law retreated from the tent in a panic, and before she could catch her breath, she saw Sheng Heng Y standing next to her with a calm face, and she was so frightened that she almost screamed.

Shengheng immediately made a silent movement, and the mother-in-law immediately covered her mouth.

Yunyang waved at her expressionlessly, telling her to leave quickly.

Seung-hyung waited outside the tent for a while, and when he heard that there was no sound inside, he quietly lifted the curtain and took a look to confirm that Yunyang was asleep.

He then left outside Yunyang's tent and came to his big tent, where Shengheng called in a few generals who had gone out with him this morning.

"Did you find a bush or anything like that, even a pile of branches, near the burnt wagon this morning?" When Shengheng saw that they had arrived, he asked straight to the point.

Several generals thought for a moment, and one of them said, "Not far from the place where the wagon was burned, there is a pile of artemisia." ā€

Another general immediately chimed in: "Yes, I have seen it too." ā€

Shengheng's expression relaxed a little, and then said, "When I arrived, I found that there was no sacrifice in the ashes of the carriage, so I went to look for her in a hurry. I don't remember if there was grass or not, but I remember a big rock a little farther away. ā€

"The Great Khan's memory is so good, you just look at it so quickly, and you can find so much. I'm ashamed of myself. The generals immediately flattered.

Shengheng knew that what Yunyang said about the scene was not wrong, and his mood improved. He gently clasped the coffee table with the knuckles of his fingers, as if casually, and asked, "Did you find anything near that big rock?" ā€

The generals thought that this matter was over, but they didn't expect that the Great Khan was still asking, but after thinking about it, they understood that the Great Khan was testing him.

Shengheng's intention was that when he was not there, did they carefully check the situation near the accident site, and did they find anything special.

It was an opportunity to show his abilities, and several generals scrambled to say, "I found some scattered footprints behind the big rocks......"

"I also found that there are not only footprints but also horseshoe prints......"

"You've only seen big rocks, but I've checked them all behind the big rocks and the artemisia! The footprints behind the big rock were messy, yes, and at least two people's. As for the back of the artemisia, there are no footprints, and the one on the outside is all roasted yellow......"

"Bang!"

Before the general's words were finished, Shengheng's fist had already smashed on the tea table.

The crowd trembled with fright, thinking that something was wrong and provoked the Great Khan to be angry.

Sheng Heng turned around slowly, and he said with a blushing face: "So under the fire at that time, it was impossible for anyone to hide behind the sand artemisia?" ā€

"Yes...... Yes. The generals replied.

"Sure enough, sure enough, she lied to me." Sheng Heng's heart suddenly felt a dull pain: "I treated her like this, and I died for her without hesitation several times, why can't I even get a word of truth from her mouth?" ā€

"I have seen the scene where the carriage was burned, except for the footprints of these mothers-in-law, there is no one else, so it can be seen that the death of these people has nothing to do with her, and it is indeed self-inflicted. But who brought her off the hay truck? Did she really escape by herself, as she said? How could those mothers-in-law leave without tying her up? There is always something that doesn't make sense. But since the death of these women had nothing to do with her, why did she have to lie about this inconsequential matter? Is there any difference between hiding behind rocks and behind artemisia? ā€
