Chapter Ninety-Four: Meeting Alone
"See Concubine Khan, I don't know what Concubine Khan commands?" The archmage looked at Uroran's face and asked.
"Do you know the origin of that late slave?" The archmage was an old man who followed Wu Li back then, and he was very loyal to Wu Luolan, so Wu Luo Lan said it straight to the point in front of him.
"I don't know γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» that. At that time, I advised the Great Khan not to bring her back, but the Great Khan would not listen. β
"King Donghu's dedication is so stunning, what is his intention?"
"King Donghu is not offering this woman, but Donghu beauty, this woman is the Great Khan's export, and her face was full of red spots at that time, maybe she had her own intention to hide it." The Archmage explained bluntly.
"Could it be that the Great Khan is really like this because he likes her food?" Uloran wondered.
"According to Concubine Khan, is the Great Khan a person who pays attention to eating?" The Archmage looked at Uloran with his eyes that were discerning into the world.
"No, the Great Khan is by no means such a person who is greedy for pleasure, he is only focused on the unification of the Xiongnu." Uloran shook her head in denial.
"So, I doubt γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»," the archmage said and stopped.
"Suspect what? The Archmage can speak as bluntly as he can. β
"I'm afraid Concubine Khan has also thought of the trick, right?" The archmage asked rhetorically.
"You mean, they've known each other for a long time?" After Uloran finished speaking, her face became even worse.
"There is this possibility, otherwise I really can't figure out what the Great Khan wants to do with an ugly slave girl from the king of Donghu? I have one more sentence I want to ask Concubine Khan. β
"You say."
"Since the woman came to our Tata, has there been anything unusual about the Great Khan?"
"It's not unusual, it's just that the Great Khan and I γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" Uroran stopped talking, she wanted to say that Helian City and she seemed to be more alienated. She saw Helian Cheng's concern for the late slave in her eyes, and the late slave didn't speak to Helian Cheng like a female slave to her master, maybe it was really because they had known each other many years ago, and Helian Cheng wouldn't have dared to think about the things that would γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» the rest of this woman a long time ago, so she said to the archmage: "Please ask the archmage to help me do something." β
"Concubine Khan commanded."
"Go and find out the true identity and origin of this late slave, lest she hurt the Great Khan and bring disaster to us Huns." In fact, what she wants to know more is whether these two really have any past.
"Yes," the archmage continued, "the Great Khan will go to the Kun Evil King in two days to discuss matters, and Concubine Khan might as well take advantage of the Great Khan's absence to interrogate this late slave." β
Uroran nodded: "Everything will be said after the Great Khan is gone." β
Helian Cheng is indeed going to leave these days, he is going to Kunxie, before leaving, he asked Chu Xiangwan to call Chu Xiangwan into his tent and said to her, "I will leave for a few days." After speaking, he stopped talking, because he didn't know why he deliberately told Chu Xiangwan.
"What does the Great Khan mean?" Chu Xiangwan raised his eyes, puzzled.
"You woman is a dead brain, you should be a little more restrained during Ben Khan's absence, don't cause anything." It's obviously a word of concern, but it's a reproach when it is spoken.
"Did the Great Khan think I was a troublemaker to warn me?" Chu Xiangwan asked rhetorically.
"You womanγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" Helian Cheng was a little annoyed, why did he not know what to do.
"Don't worry, Khan, I'll do my duty." Chu Xiangwan lowered his head again.
"Alright, you go down." Helian Cheng stopped talking, turned around and stood with his hands in his hands, but when Chu Xiangwan withdrew, he turned around and looked at her back. He muttered to himself: "Chu Xiangwan, don't you really understand my heart?" Chu Xiangwan didn't hear his words, but Helian Cheng's mind Chu Xiangwan didn't necessarily understand, he just didn't want to understand.
On the third day of Helian Cheng's departure, Wu Luolan met with Chu Xiangwan alone.
"Yandu, you go down too, I want to ask her something alone." Uloran commanded.
There were only Wu Luolan and Chu Xiangwan left in the tent, and the atmosphere was a little awkward, although Wu Luolan's temperament was much calmer because of Tata's great changes, but after all, she was a child of the grassland, and her bold personality was natural, if it was something else, she would say it directly, but about Helian City, she didn't know how to speak.
"Why did Concubine Khan call me here?" Chu Xiangwan got straight to the point.
"How long have you been in Donghu?"
"Five years."
"With your beauty, just a slave girl?"
"There are some things that I don't want to do myself, so naturally I have a way to deal with them. I guess Concubine Khan should have heard that I am not like this in Donghu. Chu Xiangwan was direct.
"Then why did you show your true face when you arrived at Tata?"
"The Great Khan found out early in the morning, I can no longer hide it, besides, the Great Khan is not as easy to fool as King Donghu, is he?"
"Yes, a smart man." Uloran appreciated. She continued: "How did you come to the Huns? β
"My family fell into the middle of the road, and I was kidnapped by gangsters, so I was sold here."
"Did you know the Great Khan before?" Uloran finally asked what she wanted to know most.
"Concubine Khan is too worried, I have never known the Great Khan." Chu Xiangwan deliberately concealed it, and saying more would only make people doubt her identity.
"What do you think of the Great Khan? However, you Zhou people hate us Huns to the core, and it is superfluous for me to ask this. β
"That's not true, the two countries are in conflict, why are the people innocent? Since they are all suffering people, how can we talk about hatred? Regardless of the position, the Great Khan was a man of the hour. Chu Xiangwan's words were very pertinent.
"Looks like you appreciate the Great Khan." Uloran said tentatively.
"I don't dare to agree with Concubine Khan's words, what I said just now is just an outsider's words, and it does not involve personal feelings."
"And what if you put your feelings into it?"
"Concubine Khan doesn't have to be tempted anymore, your worries will never come true, these days when I came to Tata, I can see that Concubine Khan's feelings for the Great Khan are deep and pure." Chu Xiangwan's straightforwardness and sincerity have always been her principles.
"But the Great Khan seems to be out of sight." Uroran's eyes were lonely.
"The Great Khan has no concubines so far, which shows his respect and love for you, and this alone is something that many men can't do." Chu Xiangwan persuaded and explained.
"Of course I know what the Great Khan is like to me." Wu Luolan didn't say the following words, it was because she knew that she was sad, because Helian Cheng's feelings were not on her, and the person in front of her was very likely. She put on a sad look, and became the high-ranking Khan concubine again, she said to Chu Xiangwan, "Since you stay in Tata, you must keep your duty, if you do anything to harm the Great Khan and Tata, I will not spare you." β
"I'm just a slave girl, how can I have a monstrous ability to stir up political affairs, Concubine Khan is too worried. I just want to live my life well and nothing else. Chu Xiangwan bowed his head.
