Chapter 1023: The Great Khan is Back
readx;?“ However, speaking of which, this matter should not be publicized too much. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" The general thought for a while and said: "The people brought out by the Great Khan this time are all elite soldiers and strong generals in the tribe, how can two soldiers be killed by an old woman in a row, it is too embarrassing for this matter to spread out." ”
Everyone thought about it and sighed with emotion: "Although this mother-in-law's family has been a hunter in the tribe for generations, if it weren't for being defenseless and completely trusting her, she wouldn't have been able to get it so easily." ”
The general looked into the distance and said, "Now that the sky is bright, the Great Khan may come back in a while." When the time comes, I will explain this matter carefully to the Great Khan. In addition, the mother-in-law's goal in doing this seems to be to bow and sacrifice, but after she killed the soldiers, she did not kill the bow sacrifice, but only startled her horse and rushed out of the barracks. It is said that the prostration sacrifice does not know martial arts at all, and it should be better to start, but she did not succeed. It can be seen that the prostration sacrifice has become suspicious of her. If the Great Khan can successfully retrieve the prostration sacrifice, then we may be able to know the true purpose of the mother-in-law. ”
Everyone nodded.
When it was almost noon, Seungheng and Yunyang, who had galloped all night, returned to the barracks exhausted. When Shengheng helped Yunyang off the horse, Yunyang was still shocked, looked around and said, "What about the mother-in-law?" You must not take her lightly, she killed someone! ”
The expression on the general's face was a little embarrassed, and he lowered his head slightly and said, "Actually, this murderer killed two people." ”
When Sheng Heng heard this, Jian Mei had already stood up: "What did you say?" ”
When the general saw that the Great Khan was really angry, he immediately knelt down and replied: "It was my dereliction of duty that I didn't see this old woman as soon as possible. We found out where she had killed the soldier and bowed to the sacrificial mount, and she immediately uttered a rhetoric and took all the blame...... All of them were pushed to the heads of the prostrations. Also said...... It is also said that the departure of the prostration sacrifice is absconding in fear of sin. Since she was not present and there were no other witnesses, we did not take precautions against her......"
"Idiot!" Sheng Heng was already so angry at this time that he raised his horsewhip and slapped the general a few times: "Why did I leave you to take care of the barracks, it's not that you are thoughtful and steady. A mother-in-law reverses black and white, you can't hear nonsense, what else do I want from you! ”
The general gritted his teeth and withstood the whip of the sweat without saying a word.
Yun Yang saw this scene next to him, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop the angry Shengheng: "Great Khan is angry!" The general can't be blamed for this matter, he usually doesn't have any dealings with his mother-in-law, how can he know what this mother-in-law is thinking about? Even if you talk to your mother-in-law a few times, don't you see that this is a vicious person? ”
Shengheng thought that the root of this matter was indeed in his own place, if he hadn't sent this mother-in-law to Yunyang's side in the first place, he would not have given this mother-in-law a chance to imagine a makeover, and the next thing would not have happened. If it weren't for this opportunity to inspire the mother-in-law's greed, the mother-in-law might have spent her life in peace, and the two soldiers would not have suffered.
Thinking of this, Sheng Heng sighed, pointed at the general and said, "You didn't say it just now, I know it." When the mother-in-law put all the responsibility on the prostration and sacrifice, you believed it all, not for anything else, because the prostration and sacrifice were from the Central Plains. If it weren't for your prejudices, the flaws of the mother-in-law could have been discovered at that time. And the mother-in-law can succeed again and again, that is, she takes advantage of this prejudice of yours. But at this moment, the only one who can stand up for you and speak out is this Central Plains person, you ask yourself, are you ashamed? ”
The general did not raise his head, but at this moment his heart was turning a thousand times, he remembered that when he knew that the second murder had happened in the morning, none of the people around him, those who usually called him brothers, were willing to stand up and take responsibility with him, but he really didn't expect that when the Great Khan was about to be angry and punished, it was the foreigners who he had always disliked in his heart who saved him.
After thinking about it, the general saluted Yunyang and said: "It's all because I'm narrow-minded, and I don't distinguish between right and wrong to make a big mistake." When the first murder occurred last night, I should not have been prejudiced and listened to the old woman's side and misunderstood you. What's more, I didn't even have the slightest precaution against this person, if I could have sent someone to watch her or restrict her movements, then the second murder would not have happened, and the truth would have been clear when you returned, and the murderer would have been punished. And I was so stupid. ”
Yun Yang hurriedly replied: "The general doesn't have to blame himself like this, I have been with this murderer for a few days, and I haven't fully seen her true colors, if it weren't for her insatiable greed and showing her feet, I'm afraid I don't know how long I will be deceived by her like you." What's even more terrifying is that this mother-in-law will act immediately when she thinks of killing, without thinking about the consequences. After she had killed a soldier in front of me, she was about to kill me again, but before I could react, she threw the coals in her hand. If it weren't for the Great Khan's amazing jumping power of the chosen horse, which allowed me to escape, I am afraid that I would have ended up with the soldier. ”
Sheng Heng opened his mouth coldly here: "You have been studying for a long time, where did that mother-in-law go, do you have eyebrows?" ”
When the general heard that the Great Khan's tone was much slower than just now, he seemed to have the intention of letting himself go, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But he was still very careful to say: "We have carefully looked at the marks left by the mother-in-law after she stole the horse, and although she was very cunning, and after leaving the barracks, she stepped on many chaotic marks to confuse our eyes, but we can still see that she is going north." ”
"Northside?"
Shengheng raised his eyebrows in surprise, and Yunyang directly said the question: "It's a strange choice for her to go north." It's getting colder and colder to the north, and with wild beasts around the Styx, what can she do there? ”
"This ......" The general couldn't think of a reason for a while, so he had to watch Shengheng silently.
Sheng Heng pondered for a moment and said: "What she has done these days is nothing more than being burdened by the greed in her heart, and when she really killed someone, she already knew what was waiting for her in her heart." If she escaped from the barracks and wanted to go back to her family, it would only bring ruin to her family, and she would be in danger herself. So the best option is to go the opposite way and go to a place that everyone thinks is impossible, which is the safest. After all the hardships along the way, this woman should know very well in her heart that the vicinity of the Styx Lake is very dangerous, and I can't risk the loss of my people and get her back. ”
"I have to say that although this mother-in-law is old, she is very smart, as long as she arrives at the Styx, she can live in the house where the villagers lived before, but there are often white bears nearby, and she may not live for long. Well, in that case, let her fend for herself. ”
