"Okay, you said it yourself." Su Yunling was just fed up with being controlled by him.

She took out the silver needle from her sleeve and stabbed it at him. Tuoba Ye's eyes flashed and he turned his head away, but the medicine powder was sprinkled right on his face.

That’s right, Su Yunling wanted to use medicine from the beginning, and as for the needle, it was just to make a feint to the east and attack in the west.

"Hiss~" Tuoba Ye, whose face was covered with medicine powder, let out a slight hiss.

"monarch--"

The other Xirong people nearby gathered around. Although their faces could not be seen, the ferocity in their eyes showed that they wished they could eat Su Yunling alive.

"Lord, this woman from Great Yin is so ungrateful, you might as well just kill her."

"Shut up!" Tuoba Ye shouted angrily, scaring the man who spoke so much that he shrank his neck. But when he turned to look at Su Yunling, his tone softened:

"Take out the antidote, otherwise your maid won't be able to leave this desert alive."

The name of this medicine is Baichongsan. When it comes into contact with the skin, it will produce an extremely itchy and burning sensation that is unbearable for ordinary people.

Su Yunling cursed: "Despicable!"

Tuoba Ye: "You are no less capable than me."

In order to save Linglan's life, Su Yunling had to give the antidote to him.

During the rest of the journey, Tuoba Ye kept his word and tied her up.

There is a soft spot, and these people are defending tightly, so there is no way to escape for the time being.

She wanted to vent her anger by scolding the man, so she really did scold him out loud.

"Tuoba Ye, are you a man? Is your way of entertaining guests in the Great Yin to tie women to the back of horses?"

Tuoba Ye said lazily, "This is our custom of snatching brides in Xirong. We just snatch the woman we like away."

Su Yunling said angrily: "That doesn't include married women, right?"

"I, Xirong, do not recognize the marriage of Dayin."

"That's just sophistry. You'll regret it if you take me back home."

Tuoba Ye smiled playfully: "Really? If I don't tie you up and take you back, I will regret it even more..."

Su Yunling ignored him. She thought about persuading the horses to take her and Linglan away and take these Xirong people away.

But after looking at the strong man behind her, the rope that could not be untied in a short time, and Lily of the Valley who had been taken away to an unknown place, she gave up temporarily.

Not realistic, not realistic at all.

It seems that she has to go on this trip to Xirong.

It would be a good idea for her to go there and find out more about Tuoba Ye. She always felt that he seemed to know her very well and knew her secrets.

Maybe it can help Dayin get rid of the powerful enemy Xirong.

Anyway, her mission to stop the empress from disrupting the political situation of Great Yin has been completed. Now she just has to wait for the disappearing system to take her away.

Isn't waiting the same as waiting anywhere?

After two days and two nights of traveling in the Gobi Desert, when Su Yunling was almost falling apart on horseback, the outline of a city finally appeared on the western hillside.

There is the capital of the Western Rong - the city of Monsa.

That afternoon, they finally entered the city.

The capital of the Western Rong people showed a kind of barbaric prosperity everywhere.

The buildings here are unique and luxurious, but slaves being sold like livestock can be seen everywhere on the streets.

Those dark-skinned, naked slaves, all wearing black leather collars around their necks, were locked in cages for people to choose. The slaves who were chosen and sold were tied with ropes and led away.

Among those people, there were not only young men and women, but also young children. All of them were treated as commodities and had their prices clearly marked.

This scene shocked Su Yunling deeply. Although there were people trafficking in slaves in Dayin, at least they would not leave slaves without even a piece of clothing.

In addition to the lively hawking sounds, Su Yunling could also hear the screams of whips hitting her flesh.

But the others seemed to be deaf to all the talk and were immersed in their own busy work.

Until those people saw Tuoba Ye's cavalry, they all put down what they were doing, bowed respectfully and touched their chests, and looked at Su Yunling who was dressed in strange clothes with curiosity.

The Western Rong people had no good feelings towards the people of the Great Yin. In their eyes, the men of the Great Yin, who valued culture over military affairs, were cunning and weak.

Although the women of Dayin were fair-skinned and beautiful, they were too delicate and rigid. They were far from being as passionate and unrestrained as the women of Xirong, and were not as pleasing to men.

But their king managed to rescue two women from the Great Yin Dynasty, and the news soon spread throughout the city of Monsa, including the palace.

There are currently twelve concubines in Tuoba Ye's harem, almost all of whom are princesses sent by major tribes and vassal states for marriage. Among them, only one is a special one who is deeply favored by Tuoba Ye.

She is Ashina Shi, a princess of the Turkic tribe.

Ashina Shi had the highest position in the harem, second only to the Empress.

She was brought back by Tuoba Ye when he went to the Turks half a year ago.

Ever since Ashina Shi entered the palace, she has been favored by Tuoba Ye and was named a noble concubine as soon as she entered the palace.

Tuoba Ye spared no effort to build her the tallest building in the world that she desired, cast a statue for her with pure gold, and named the widest street in the city of Monsa after her.

Tuoba Ye would unconditionally satisfy whatever Ashina Shi wanted.

The entire city of Monsa knew that Ashina's poems were the apple of their king's eye and must not be desecrated or offended.

Ashina Shi also firmly believed that she was the one and only in Tuoba Ye's heart, but today she heard that Tuoba Ye had snatched a woman back from Dayin, and that woman was the princess of Dayin.

After hearing this, she instantly became furious. Not only did she smash all the good things that Tuoba Ye had given her a few days ago, she also drew her sword and stabbed the face of the maid who delivered the message.

"Where do you think that woman was placed?" Ashina Shi asked, pointing his sword at the maid's bloody forehead.

"... in... in the Pepper Palace."

The Jiaofang Palace was a palace specially prepared by Tuoba Ye for his queen, and many of the arrangements inside were even supervised and arranged by him personally.

At that time, Ashina Shi thought that the Pepper Palace was prepared for her, but she didn't expect that a dirty woman who was kidnapped would live there.

The maid at the side stepped forward to comfort her: "Don't be angry, Your Majesty. It is said that the woman was thrown in with her hands and feet tied. The emperor may not really like her. Eighty percent..."

"Eighty percent of what?" Ashina Shi was not in a good mood towards her wet nurse.

"It's probably just a temporary novelty. I've seen a few women in Dayin before, and they all seem to have no temper. In terms of looks and figures, they do have some ability to seduce men, but once the novelty wears off, they're nothing to men."

"Mammy, are you saying that the emperor brought her back just as a toy?"

"Yes, maybe it's something I caught for you, my lady?"

Ashina Shi's anger immediately turned into joy. She had indeed told Tuoba Ye that she wanted to arrange for a few meticulous maids to serve her personally. Tuoba Ye said that the women of Dayin were good.

It turned out to be the case.

Ashina Shi laughed and told her servants to bring her whip.

"Let's go and take a look at the stuff we stole from Dayin. Is it fun?"

The group went to the Pepper Palace in a mighty procession. On the way, they met several concubines from other palaces, so they formed a team and went together to watch the fun and have fun.

"Tuoba Ye, where did you take Linglan? If anything happens to her, I will kill you!"

As soon as the group of people arrived at the gate of the Pepper Palace, they heard Su Yunling's threats coming from inside.

When they heard her calling their emperor by his name, everyone's faces changed.
