Chapter 2 He Is Not Him
?
Ever since I woke up, I have been in this tent, and the Turkic young 'girl' who took care of me changed my 'medicine' every day, and fed me 'medicine' in the morning, noon, and evening. The old man named Namudu also came to show me every day, although I didn't understand the theory of 'medicine', but I also knew that these were all good 'medicine' materials, some of which I had never seen in Kannai. After He Lu ascended the throne as Khan, he led ten tribes and controlled the entire Western Regions! The Western Regions were rich in spices, war horses, and 'medicine' materials. Since the split of the Eastern and Western Turks, the Western Turks have completely cut off the roads, and the Han people dare not go out of the customs, while the Turks have repeatedly entered the customs to disturb the 'commotion'.
He Lu's tooth tent was built in Shuanghe, and hot springs can be seen everywhere in Shuanghe, although it snowed heavily, but the tent was put on a stove, and under him slept was a felt blanket made of thick animal 'hair' skin, and he didn't feel cold. It's just that every time someone comes in and out, it always brings in a biting cold wind.
He Lu and Na Azili hadn't been here since that day, and I hadn't seen anyone else except the Turkic 'Servant' and 'Nu' and Namdu. It's just that I can't understand what they say, and I can't speak, so communication has become a big problem. I had to just move and show them whatever I wanted.
After about seven or eight days of hard work, I was able to sit up and drink the 'medicine' on my own. After a few days, the amount of 'medicine' decreased, and I needed to eat some goat's milk, but the fishy smell of goat's 'milk' was so bad that I couldn't stand it, and I retched before it was brought to me. I waved my hand again and again, refusing to eat the thing, and the 'waiter' and 'woman' couldn't, so I had to retreat. But I can't eat chewed food except for goat's milk, but liquid food is either goat's milk or cow's milk, which has a fishy smell. I couldn't eat anything but go hungry.
The 'waiter' and 'woman' thought that I would starve to death sooner or later if I continued to starve like this, so he invited He Lu, who looked at me, then picked up the goat's 'milk' and said, "If you don't eat it, you will starve to death!" I glanced at him coldly, it is better to starve to death now, and save me from being humiliated by him when I am better! He squatted down impatiently, pinched my jaw, and poured the goat's 'milk' directly into my mouth despite my struggle.
He pinched my cheeks, and I held my breath and was forced to swallow goat's milk, some of which still flowed from the corners of my mouth and even choked out of my nose. He didn't pity the 'jade' at all, and 'forced' me to drink all the bowls of goat's 'milk' before letting go of me, and before I let go, I lay on my stomach and coughed, my stomach was churning, and I was about to vomit after a few vomits. But he grabbed me by the placket and shouted, "Don't vomit!"
With tears in my eyes, I held back my disgust, looking at his slashed face, cold eyes, and his low roar...... It's too similar, it's all too similar to Qiheng!
I couldn't help but put my face on his face, his face was cold, and his tentacles were not smooth, as if he had a thorn. Outside the plug, although his face was rough, it was more similar to Qiheng. Qi Heng's face is also so colorful, so piercing, he always likes to bury his head in my neck, stabbing me to giggle.
With a smile in my eyes, I opened my mouth to call his name, but the sound I made was only "hiss", and my eyes dimmed, although I had picked up a life, but about my vocal cords were also destroyed, and I was afraid that I would not be able to speak in the future.
He suddenly threw me down and shouted, "Namdu!"
Namu ran in panting, He Lu pointed at my throat and said something to him, Namu shook his head, as if he was helpless to say a few words. He Lu was furious, grabbed his clothes and almost lifted him up, Namu hurriedly begged for mercy, He Lu said a word angrily, threw him on the ground, Namu knelt on the ground and kowtowed. He Lu glanced back at me, pointed to the 'waiter' and 'girl' and said something, and then walked out of the tent.
Naturally, I couldn't understand what they were saying, but I could guess a sentence or two, probably because He Lu wanted Namu to heal my throat, but Namu wasn't sure! Being able to save my life means that his medical skills are superb enough, and I'm afraid Hua Tuo won't be able to save my voice in the next life.
After a while, two 'waiters' and 'women' walked in and helped me dress, wearing a hu suit and a thick 'Mao' cloak. Then two 'maids' and 'women' came, and together they lifted me out of the tent. It's March, and it's already spring, right? It is said that there are only two seasons outside the plug, except for summer, which is winter. The winter is bitterly cold, and the summer is very hot, and even the tooth tent will be moved to Qianquan in the summer to escape the heat.
I was carried into a large, ornate and warm tent, with a large flag 'planted' on the top of the tent and a totem painted on it. And inside the tent there are also totems painted with gold pigments, and it seems that this is the king's tent.
The king's tent was divided into two parts, the outer part was the place of deliberation, separated by a curtain, and the inside was the resting place, and they put me on the bed, and withdrew again.
After a while, He Lu walked in, and I looked at him in horror and shrank back. He's not going to ...... right now I pointed to my 'legs', then to my throat, and shook my head.
He frowned and muttered, "Han 'girl' is really troublesome!"
I know that these Turks look down on the Han people, and always feel that the Han people are weak in culture and literature, unlike them, who are naturally powerful!
But he seems to have forgotten that he was also born to a Han 'girl'!
I was glad that I couldn't speak, and if I could, I would have insulted him, and I couldn't imagine how angry he would be, he was a man who could kill his own father!
Fortunately, he just looked at me, and then someone asked to see me, and he was out on business. The Turks spoke loudly, not knowing what they were discussing, and neither side had suffered damage in the previous war, and no one had bargained for anything. This time, I don't know if He Lu wants to send troops to invade again, if only I could understand Turkic.
When they were done, the smell of 'meat' wafted outside, and then laughter was heard. I think it was lunchtime, and sure enough, the 'waiter' and 'girl' came in with goat's milk, and I covered my nose when I smelled it. The 'waiter' and 'girl' chattered and talked, but I was still unmoved, and then I heard He Lu say loudly outside: "I can only pour it in like this morning when the goat's 'milk' is still there!"
I don't want to suffer another sin! I hurriedly took the goat's milk from the hands of the 'waiter' and 'girl', pinched my nose and swallowed it in a big gulp, and then drank several sips of water in a row, lying on the side and panting.
He Lu didn't know what to say, and caused a burst of laughter, I knew that the smile was ill-intentioned, so I closed my eyes and lay down to sleep. But I can't help but feel anxious in my heart, no matter what the situation in the court is now, but if I know that their empress dowager has become a prisoner of the Turks, even if I am rescued in the future, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the world to be tolerated! I don't want to stay here for the rest of my life, I want to go back, I want to think about Yuan Xi and Baoyue, and I also want to have compassion......
