Chapter 913: Intuition
Su Wang Xiao'er buried his head in Jintuo, and his right hand with yellow and green wrenches was pressed on his chest, as if some illness had attacked, and he looked very painful.
But Asari knew that he was not sick, and when King Su suddenly raised his head, the anguished look disappeared immediately; If it's sick, it can't get better that quickly. King Su became expressionless, vaguely as if he was holding back something. He was just a little out of control and showed it in front of the guests.
"This king will protect you and let you return to the Tatar tribes by means of the Great Ming." King Su spoke again, "In return, this king only needs you to do one thing. After returning to the Tatar tribes, make sure that Arutai sent my uncle back. ”
King Su said, his eyes swept over the naked face of the "Mongolian Prime Minister" and looked at Asari. He may have thought that Arutai was Asari's eldest brother, and that Asari could play a bigger role.
Dehuo Chi's voice said, "It's that simple? ”
This is a question that Asari also wants to ask.
Regarding the tragic fate of King Su's uncle and aunt, the Varspurs and Tatars all shared. Among them, the former Tatar leader (Ghost Lichi) who did this evil thing had been killed by Arutai; Therefore, it is possible for the king to stop blaming the Tatars, especially for Arutai, but he should not have a good impression of it.
However, King Su took in the remnants of the Tartars, and did not hesitate to endure the attacks and attacks of the Tile Thorns, but did not hand over the Asari and others. Why? She thought that King Su had a bigger reason, but now it seems that she guessed wrong.
King Su didn't answer the question, but asked, "Can you do it?" ”
Without hesitation, Asari replied, "Of course, it is not a difficult choice to ask the eldest brother to return a woman. ”
King Su said: "Are you willing to swear? ”
Dehuochi and Asari were very happy, knelt on the ground one after another, called out to the true god of the Muslim sect, and vowed that as long as they could return to the Tatar tribe smoothly, they would do their best to let King Su's uncle return to Hami.
After King Su witnessed, he nodded and said, "That's it, it's a very cost-effective exchange for you, there is no need to go back." My aunt is on your side, where is more important than the son of Benjari Khan? ”
Asari was shocked. The prime minister and Asari had already discussed not revealing her son's identity to anyone, how did King Su know?
"Two distinguished guests, please go to the hall to continue the banquet." King Su waved his hand slightly.
Still a little skeptical, he stood for a while. King Su glanced at him and said, "You may not understand my feelings, but it's okay. ”
So Asari bowed and retired with Flame Chi.
As soon as they went out, they heard King Su's voice again: "If my uncle is here at a lively dinner, I will definitely be happy." ”
Hearing this, Asari couldn't help but glance back at the room with the lights on. The woman has an intuition, even if it is only for a short time, she also feels it: King Su's uncle is more intimate to him than his mother, even if it is an ordinary mother and son, most of them will not be so concerned.
I saw that the fire was slightly shaken by a small amplitude. When Asari looked at him, the two looked at each other, but did not speak, because there was a guard in front of him to lead the way. Then he buried his head in the road and looked contemplative.
Dehuo Chi may still have doubts, and he doesn't quite understand what medicine is sold in Suwang's gourd. But Asari suddenly remembered her lover, Benjari's sweating, and she thought about the situation when they were separated again, and suddenly understood a little about King Su's feelings.
"What King Su said should be true." Asari said.
Dehuo Chi glanced at the guards leading the way in front of him, and asked in a low voice, "Why?" ”
Asari said straight, "Intuition. ”
Dehuo's mouth opened slightly, revealing his yellow teeth, and he didn't say anything.
They returned to the noisy hall, where the sound of drums, huqin, and human voices filled the hall and beyond, and even the singers could not be heard clearly. The two sat next to each other, but there were often people walking around and other guests. Asari wanted to ask Takehuo Chi something to say, but she didn't have a chance, so she had to give up.
No one ever tried to inquire or ask about the child, but how did King Su determine the child's identity? Asari could not guess, but gradually she felt that there seemed to be some conspiracy hidden in this place, in the air mixed with the smell of burning grease and the smell of plant ash; But she couldn't think of any specific conspiracy.
The dinner didn't end until late at night. Asari thought that Dehuochi would find a dancer to spend the night, because Dehuochi always looked at the scantily clad dancers, and slapped an orchid's buttocks; However, he did not do that, and he went back with Asari, to the heavily guarded mansion.
The next morning, shortly after she woke up, she heard the children playing in the yard. She walked out of the room and saw the two children in the yard again.
Before, Asari didn't dare to get too close to the boy for fear of revealing the child's identity. But even if she was cautious, someone in Hami still knew. There was no need for her to hide it too much now.
Asari called the boy and told him to come over.
The boy watched with bright eyes as Asari crouched down in front of him. Asari looked at his face closely, and could vaguely see that the child did look a little like Benjari's sweaty appearance, and she couldn't help but reach out and gently place it on the child's cheek.
Asari's nose was sore, her eyes were astringent, she felt that her eyes were about to leak out, so she subconsciously held back her emotions and held back the urge to tears. The Mongols and the Asuts are all bloody tribes, and neither man nor woman should be weak! That's what people told her since childhood.
She told herself not to cry, but to be tenacious to protect the child and keep this face that looked like Benjari sweating alive, so that Benjari sweating would never leave her.
When Asari looked up, she saw her slave girl looking at her in surprise. Asari stood up and turned away from the slave girl.
She also knew in her heart that her tenacity alone was useless at the moment; The most important thing is whether the eldest brother can really know all this and whether he will try to negotiate with the Han people.
And those Han people, will they let them go? Will they be allowed to return to Tatar by way?
…… What Asari was looking forward to was underway. The envoys of Arutai had just arrived at the Ming Jingshi at this time.
Only a few decades have passed since the Mongols ruled the entire Han homeland, the vast lands of a dozen provinces, and these Tatar envoys can be regarded as returning to their homeland.
But they were very amazed and curious about Jingshi, because none of these people had ever been to Jingshi, they were too young; As early as the Yuan Dynasty, before the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, the Nanjing area, where Zhili was located, had been occupied by the Han rebel army and fought with each other.
Since the Mongol tribes retreated from Beiping, then known as the "capital", they have hardly returned. The envoys sent by the Ming Dynasty to the Mongol tribes were often detained or even killed, and the Mongols did not send envoys for a long time. A few years ago, the two sides broke out again into a large-scale war, and the competition in various ways has never stopped.
This time the Tatars sent an envoy to the court, which is really a rare thing.
The official letter of the envoy and his entourage had been sent to Beijing in advance, ostensibly stating that the Mongolian Privy Council prefect Arutai was suffering from an illness, and described in detail the illness and the need for a few hard-to-find medicinal materials, so he sent an envoy to Beijing to seek medicine.
The Ming court did not embarrass at all about this kind of reason, and issued an edict to the Beiping Prefecture, ordering local officials to send guards and escort Tatar envoys to Beijing to meet with the court.
When a group of Tatars arrived at the gate of the capital division alive, one of them suddenly asked, "The Ming people won't hunt us down, right?" ”
Everyone came back to their senses at this time, they didn't have any worries all the way, if someone hadn't mentioned it, everyone wouldn't even think about the safety issue. The man who spoke just now led the horse and said, "The Han envoys have come to the grassland, and we have detained and killed them, so we have not let them have a good time." Will the Han people on this side of Jiqing Road retaliate with a tooth for a tooth? ”
It made Ma Hazi think for a while and said, "Probably not, don't worry." ”
A man next to him said in Mongolian: "Don't look at the Han people who are very fierce now, they came to attack us in a hurry a few years ago, but they don't want to fight us." It has always been the steppe people who have come to attack it, as if they had come to harvest pasture. Now that we have taken the initiative to make it, it is too late for the Han people to be happy, and they must not offer it like their grandfather? ”
Everyone laughed "haha", only Ma Hazi did not laugh, and did not stop everyone.
Sure enough, the officials of the Ming Kingdom treated them very well, arranged a spacious and comfortable house for them to live in, and delivered good wine and meat to the door. The officials who came to speak would also speak Mongolian, and they were kind and polite, and they asked their prefect Arutai how he was doing, and said that he hoped that Arutai's illness would be cured as soon as possible.
The officials of Ming Guotai Hospital also came, made a special trip to inquire about Arutai's symptoms, and carefully prepared a pharmacy for him at the expense of rare medicinal materials.
The Mongolians, who were still a little nervous, relaxed in a few days.
Then there was a banquet, presided over by officials from the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Dynasty, accompanied by many officials. Han women dressed in Mongolian costumes, singing and dancing in the middle, everyone laughed happily, while looking at the beauties, while grabbing mutton and eating meat and drinking.
One of Ma Erhazi's subordinates shouted loudly in Mongolian: "Why is the wine you drink on weekdays not as good as today?" ”
The Han official immediately said in Mongolian: "After the banquet, the official sent someone to pick up a few jars of good wine and send it to the hall." ”
A Mongol warrior was a little drunk, so he staggered to the middle of the hall to drink with a dancing lady, and reached out to touch the little lady. The little lady dodged in a panic, but stepped on her skirt and fell, and the song and dance suddenly began to be chaotic.
At this time, Ma Hazi scolded and asked his subordinates to go up and drag the man back, which stopped slightly.
At the banquet, the Mongols only cared about watching the beauties drink wine and eat meat, while the Han people said nonsense. After they had eaten and drunk enough, they were sent back to the hall to sleep, and the day was like a fairy.
