Postscript 2
A few days later, Jia Qing and his entourage finally arrived at the Tatar court.
Although the Tatar court was only a city on the steppe and had no regulations, it was very vast and had a large enough population, with more than 100,000 people. It is said that there were more people back then, but later they were trampled by the Cossacks, and many people fled in all directions and never returned.
Tana's palace is in the center of the royal court, and around the palace are the mansions or yurts of the Tatar nobles.
In order to receive Jia Qing and his entourage, Tana ordered people to return to the royal court in advance, and built more than ten brand-new yurts around the palace for Jia Qing and others to settle in.
Of course, the soldiers and horses of the two thousand Beijing battalions were stationed outside the royal court.
That night, Tana set up a reception banquet in the palace to entertain Jia Qing. Even the old khan, who had several encounters with Jia Qing, also came forward. However, he was indeed old and sick, so he only stayed with him for a while and then confessed and left.
At the table, Tana sat down as the host. The guest chairman, there is only one long table, Jia Qing is in the center, Xingyue is on the left, and Baochai is on the right. Next to Xingyue, there is also an enthusiastic little county lord of Qiqige.
Below, there are a dozen or so Tatar ministers.
Very small reception feast. This is just a matter of etiquette, and it is also an announcement to the royal court that there are valuable guests on the grassland. Wait until tomorrow night, Tana will personally organize a grand banquet and invite Jia Qing and others alone, and at that time, there will be no more of these ministers. So tonight, it's just Jia Qing who took Baochai and Xingyue to the banquet. The others rested in the collapsed place arranged by Tana, but Daiyu did not come because she was tired and she did not like such a banquet.
As a large Mongolian tribe, the Tatars have relied on the Great Chu, especially in recent years. Most of the Tatar ministers knew Jia Qing and knew him as the most powerful prince of Great Chu.
In addition to this, everyone can see that their own khan has a strange attitude towards Jia Qing, so throughout the banquet, he naturally flattered Jia Qing in every possible way.
Since Jia Qing temporarily borrowed other people's territory to settle down, he naturally did not pretend to be high, and drank with everyone with the light and dust......
Although the communication was inconvenient, fortunately, there were many Tatar speakers of Chinese, and an attendant interpreter was specially placed on the table, and everyone laughed and enjoyed themselves.
Only Baochai is a little uncomfortable, Gaine is in Dachu, and there is basically no scene of a new daughter-in-law like them facing guests directly, but this is the etiquette on the grassland. Following the customs, they had no choice but to sit quietly beside Jia Qing.
Halfway through the banquet, a young general in animal skin armor suddenly broke in.
When Jia Qing saw it, he was immediately surprised. But it's not that this general is weird, on the contrary, he is quite handsome...... What's the deal with a wreath on your head (it's not a wreath, it's just a small wreath of wildflowers and grass)? If it's just a woman, it's still a general with a sword, and this killing Matt is dressed up, which makes Jia Qing look sideways.
Tana seemed dissatisfied with the arrival of this person, and frowned and scolded twice. The general didn't care too much, he gave a casual salute, searched for it, and finally landed on Jia Qing's body.
Seeing that he was accompanied by two beautiful women (Qiqige he knew, he naturally didn't count), his eyes were even more angry for a while.
Jia Qing put down the knife that cut the barbecue and wiped his mouth with the handkerchief handed by Baochai. Gotcha, this thing looks like it's still looking for itself!
Sure enough, Qiqige crossed the stars and moon and whispered in his ear: "Oh, Uncle Wang, he is the Ajana I told you, how about it, you are a threat to Uncle Wang, right?" ”
Although Qiqige's voice was small, Baochai and the others next to him heard it clearly. They were all a little dissatisfied with Qiqige always calling Jia Qing her uncle, but they couldn't talk about her. Besides, Kikige is smart and quirky, and indeed likable. Hot farewell is with Xingyue, the two have only met a few times, and they are like glue, and they are like good sisters!
Jia Qing heard the meaning of Qiqige's words that he admired this Ajie, and looked back at it: with a look on his face, a chrysanthemum wreath on his head, and a half-concealed animal skin coat, the whole young man killed Matt. Except for the fact that his skin is slightly comparable to him, Jia Qing really can't see any threat to him......
Well, but Kikige has a point. Being good-looking is the original sin, and he is not often in the grassland, who knows when Tana can't help it, and it is not necessary to taste the taste of "little milk dog".
If he's looking for trouble tonight, I'd better make a trick to get him out of Tana's way......
Ajie didn't know that his first impression in Jia Qing's eyes was like this, if he knew that Jia Qing actually compared him to a "milk dog", it is estimated that he would have raised the knife and fought hard without saying a word. The most indispensable thing for the grassland people is blood, and the most unbearable thing is insult!
But even if he didn't know, he didn't plan to let Jia Qing go, tonight, he was just here to find trouble!
Jia Qing looked at the goods in front of him and said to him for a long time, then turned his head to look at Qiqige.
Kikige grinned, "He's going to duel you." ”
Jia Qing smiled in his heart, he had already guessed a few points when he saw this Ajie's angry expression. From this point of view, his relationship with Tana has spread in the royal court.
It seems that the atmosphere on this grassland is indeed very different from that of the Central Plains.
"Duel?" Jia Qing glanced at Tana, who looked unhappy and didn't say a word, and suddenly smiled: "This king has been in a high position for many years, and there are countless people who want to find this king to duel during this period.
However, this trip is a guest, thanks to Tana Khan's hospitality, for Tana Khan's sake, this king will give you a chance.
These two are the king's handmaidens and disciples, and if you can overcome any of them, the king will give you the opportunity to challenge the king. ”
Jia Qing stood up, pointed to Wu Xian'er and Lu Zhu, who were standing behind him, and said to Ajie.
Because she was in a foreign land, although Jia Qing was very relieved of Tana, Wu Xian'er was not, and would rather act as a maid than follow Jia Qing to protect her.
After listening to Jia Qing's words, Wu Xian'er was silent, and Lu Zhu quietly rolled her eyes. Hmph, I don't know who is who's personal disciple!
On the other side, Kikige had already added fuel to the translation of Jia Qing's words to Ajana. Sure enough, it made him angry!
You know, dodging a duel in the steppe is a coward's act. What's more, Jia Qing actually let two women come out to replace him, which is not only a cowardly act, but also an insult to him!
Duels have always been a man's business!
"Hehe, he said that the two sisters can shoot together, and they can also use weapons, he only uses his fists. Just said, if you accidentally get hurt, don't feel distressed! Kikige had an expression that was not a big deal to see the excitement, and excitedly became a translator.
Jia Qing knew that this Ajie Na probably saw the swords of Wu Xian'er and the others, so he said so. He originally wanted to humiliate this goods and make him retreat, so he said: "The duel is naturally one-on-one, how can this king break the rules." Yin pulled Wu Xian'er over and said, "Xian'er, you will come to learn this little general's tricks, remember, don't hurt him until the point is reached." ”
But when Wu Xian'er came over, he whispered in her ear: "As long as you don't cripple, you will be beaten to death!" Punch in the face! ”
When Wu Xian'er heard this, she finally couldn't help but glance at him.
Here, Ajie Na listened to Qi Qige's exaggerated translation, and was already furious, and when Wu Xian'er just bypassed the long table and simply said something like "offended", a hungry tiger rushed over, ready to solve this thin woman with one move, and then clean up Jia Qing.
But how did he know that Wu Xian'er began to practice martial arts at the age of six or seven, and has cultivated both internal and external skills, and now it has been twenty years, and with outstanding natural posture, even among those worldly masters in the Central Plains, it is estimated that there are few opponents.
This kid doesn't look like he's in his twenties, and he doesn't have a systematic cultivation technique, it's just fist and foot kung fu, even if he is brave, how can he beat Wu Xian'er?
The result is conceivable, Wu Xian'er just turned sideways, and at the same time slammed the hall with a fierce sweeping leg, and with a slap of the palm behind his back, Ajie's six-foot (less than two meters) body fell to the ground.
All this happened so quickly that even the ministers in the hall were stunned.
Ajana was even more lying on the ground, unable to stand up in shame.
Wu Xian'er did not follow Jia Qing's instructions and took advantage of the situation to join him, but walked away silently and returned to Jia Qing to stand still.
Tana finally stood up and said with a blank face, "Ajie is no longer worthy of being the head of the palace guard because she disrespects Khan's life, trespasses into the palace banquet privately, and is rude in front of distinguished guests. For his father's sake, he will not be held accountable for the time being, and from now on, he will send out the royal court and go to Shili to serve as the garrison capital (official name). Come on, bring it down. ”
After Tana's words were spoken, two court guards stepped forward. None of the surrounding ministers pleaded. Hehe, if you win the battle and add face to the khanate, everyone may even help you intercede. But the situation is that you ran out to provoke, but you were knocked to the ground by two moves by a woman from the other party......
So, Ajana, who was ashamed, was taken out of the palace by the two former brothers.
Tatar Youcheng seemed to remember that he might offend Jia Qing at this time, and stood up to apologize. Jia Qing naturally smiled at each other, and even said that it was okay, it was common for friends to learn from each other. Perfunctory to this old right, Jia Qing looked at Tana with a smile, he was very satisfied.
Tana blushed inexplicably, but this was not the time to flirt with Jia Qing in this here and now, so she glanced at him and looked away.
At the end of the banquet, Jia Qing personally escorted Baochai back to the house, and after a while, the maid beside Tana came to say: "The Khan has something important to discuss with King Fucheng, please move the prince to the palace......"
Daiyu, who had already woken up once, but was awakened by Jia Qing and others, snorted coldly at this time: "People have recruited you to sleep, why don't you go quickly!" ”
Facing the same suspicious looks of Baochai and the others, Jia Qing sneered: "Maybe there is something really going on, I'll take a look at ......?" ”
Princess Xingyue snorted in the same way, Kikige had already told her everything. Baochai said: "Lord Wang, go quickly, it's not good to keep the Khan waiting." At the same time, he ordered Ying'er to invite Wu Xian'er and let her go with her.
Naturally, she didn't ask Wu Xian'er to spy on Jia Qing, but to protect Jia Qing's safety.
