Chapter 87: The Old Man (2)
So, a random cook was called in the kitchen to follow him to the king of Donghu to receive the reward. "See the Great Khan, see the King." The cook knelt down happily, this kind of good thing can also be encountered, it is like pie in the sky.
"You made this lamb stew?" Helian City was a little incredulous.
"Yes, it's small."
"But adding green onion and ginger to the stewed mutton is the practice of the Zhou people, how can you do this?"
"Oh, it turns out that the Great Khan's dish is wrong with the one of the King of the Clan," King Donghu knew at this moment why Helian Cheng said that this dish tasted special, but he suddenly sighed again, "Isn't your dish always made by that late slave?" โ
The Zimiao clan also wondered, why didn't Chu Xiangwan come up to receive the reward? She didn't know what was going on at the moment, so she nodded and didn't say anything.
King Donghu turned to the cook and asked, "Who made this dish?" โ
The cook was also frightened when he saw King Donghu's face, so he knelt down and said, "Back to the king, yes, it was made by the late slave, but she said that she was ugly and afraid of frightening the Great Khan, so let me receive the reward." โ
"Ben Khan has such little courage that he can be frightened by the appearance of a slave girl?" Helian Cheng was interested when he heard this, there are few women in the Great Zhou Dynasty in the Huns, and now one of them sits on this high platform and becomes a side concubine, and the other is a cook and ugly in appearance, he really wants to see this saltless cook.
"Let the late slave come up." King Donghu commanded.
"Late slave, the king let you go." The person who had just come to her was here again.
"Okay." Seeing that he couldn't hide, Chu Xiangwan didn't say anything more, and went out with him. She lowered her head very low, as if she didn't dare to raise her head because of her ugly appearance, she thought, Helian Cheng and her were only a few years ago, and now her face was full of red spots, Helian Cheng should not recognize her.
"Evening slave, it's rare that the Great Khan likes your dishes, take the reward." The Zimiao clan asked the maid beside her to put the coin in Chu Xiangwan's hand, so that she could leave as soon as possible, and she intuitively felt that Chu Xiangwan was reluctant to appear on today's occasion.
"No rules, don't you know Shane?" Seeing that Chu Xiangwan turned around and was about to leave, the side concubine under King Donghu reprimanded.
Chu Xiangwan couldn't help it, so he turned around and kowtowed and said, "Thank you for the Great Khan and the Great King." โ
Does this sound sound familiar? But where have you heard of it? Helian couldn't remember it for a while. Just as Chu Xiangwan turned around again and was about to leave, Helian Cheng suddenly stopped her uncontrollably: "Wait." Chu Xiangwan's back paused, and he stood silently in place.
"Great Khan this is?" King Donghu also did not understand what he meant.
Helian Cheng ignored him, just continued to stare at the slave girl, who also seemed to have a familiar back, so he asked, "Turn around and let Ben Khan see your face." โ
Chu Xiangwan began to sweat on his back, did Helian Cheng see something? What to do, the best thing to do now is to pretend to be calm, otherwise it will be easier for people to see the clues. So she slowly lifted her face and kept her eyes on the ground.
The atmosphere on the field is very strange now, no one spoke, everyone doesn't know what happened to this Great Khan, why did he look at an ugly Da Zhou female slave for so long, Chu Xiangwan's heart skipped a beat, she didn't know if Helian Cheng recognized her.
"King Donghu, can you give this female slave to Ben Khan?" Helian Cheng's words made everyone present dumbfounded, if it was Chu Xiangwan before, it wouldn't be strange for Helian Cheng to go, but now this? Chu Xiangwan's body also shook.
"Great Khan, this king heard me right, right?" King Donghu was very surprised, but the face of the Zimiao clan next to him was not good-looking. King Donghu continued: "You didn't want so many beautiful women to give you before, how could you want such an ugly slave girl? โ
"Ben Khan likes her dishes very much, why don't you make a price for King Donghu, Ben Khan can buy her." This is strange, a Xiongnu Khan actually likes the dishes of the Great Zhou, and he has to spend money to buy people.
"Great Khan, this slave girl is difficult to discipline and ugly, why don't you let her hand over the cooking method to the person you brought?" Zimiao Yan saw Chu Xiangwan's eyes asking for help, so he opened his mouth to suggest.
"What? So many beauties King Donghu can cut their love, but this little ugly slave can't? King Donghu is too stingy. Helian Cheng also saw Chu Xiangwan's eyes, so he deliberately provoked King Donghu.
"The Great Khan is serious, since you like it, take people away." King Donghu pointed at it so casually, and decided Chu Xiangwan's fate.
Helian Cheng nodded with satisfaction, but Chu Xiangwan had already retreated silently, thinking that he should find a chance to escape.
Everyone drank a lot of wine in the evening, but Chu Xiangwan was unusually sober, and after the dinner was over, she returned to her tent, casually packed a few clothes and walked out. She picked a little red horse, looking thin is actually a good horse, if she has gained something in the Huns in recent years, there is no doubt that she has learned to watch horses and ride horses. She rolled over and whipped her whip vigorously, and the horse spread its legs and ran. All the way south, she finally decided to go to Huangfu Jingyao.
However, after only an hour of running, I heard the sound of horses' hooves clattering from behind. Chu Xiangwan didn't want to look back, someone must have found out that she had run away and came to catch her back, so she twitched the little red horse a few more times, the horse was in pain and ran wildly, but the sound of dada behind her was getting closer and closer. Suddenly, a whip wrapped around Chu Xiangwan's waist, and she was hooked to another horse at once, she couldn't see who was behind her, she just struggled desperately, the bumps were terrible, and she was about to fall off the horse if she was unstable, but at the moment when she was about to land, she was grabbed by the arm, who knew that Chu Xiangwan ignored the danger and played away with the hand that grabbed her, the people behind her didn't expect her to be so bold, and let go of her hand for a while, Chu Xiangwan just rolled all the way on the grass.
Her hands and feet were all bruised, but Chu Xiangwan got up from the ground and ran, without pausing at all, and now her mind was only thinking about how far she could run. However, the people behind him have always been with him, Chu Xiangwan only ran a few steps, and was caught in the acupoint, standing there unable to move. A hand pressed her body tightly from behind and whispered in her ear, "Imperial Concubine, where do you want to run?" โ
In the dark night, such a male voice made Chu Xiangwan shudder, the person behind him was Helian Cheng, and at the beginning, he held her hostage in such a posture. Chu Xiangwan calmed down, and tried to calm his tone: "What is the Great Khan talking about?" I don't understand, you've caught the wrong person. โ
"Although your face is ยทยทยทยทยทยท" Helian Cheng turned Chu Xiangwan and stroked her face, at this time, the two of them ran a short distance, and they were already sweating, Helian Cheng just touched her face lightly, and the red spots on her face stained his hands, and continued to wipe a few times, Helian Cheng laughed a few times: "King Donghu is a good woman, no wonder you want to become such ugly." โ
