Traveling through the Tang Dynasty: The Concubine Goes to War

Yunxi returned to her tent from Xiaowan and Shangguan Yu. Princess Xiangcheng was not in the tent, probably because she had gone out for a walk.

She sat down and drank some tea, thinking about her next plan.

At this time, a Turkic guard came to report that Jie Li Khan had invited him.

Yunxi had an idea and thought that he could take this opportunity to ask Jie Li Khan for some medicine to treat his leg injury.

Arriving at Jie Li Khan's tent, Yun Xi saw Jie Li Khan sitting at the table, looking at the map in his hand. Yun Xi bowed and asked, "Why did the Khan want to see me?"

Jie Li Khan raised his head, glanced at Yun Xi, and said, "I heard that you just went to look for Xiao Wan and Shangguan Yu?"

Yunxi's heart tightened, and she quickly replied: "So the Khan knew that Xiaowan and Shangguan Yu had come to the Turks!"

Jie Li Khan smiled and said, "They have lived in my Turkic country for quite a while. As the Khan of the Turkic country, how can I not know them?" Yun Xi thought about it and agreed.

"I called you here today because I have something to ask you." Jie Li Khan stood up and walked in front of Yunxi.

Yunxi looked up at him, "Khan, please speak."

"What do you think of Xiaowan and Shangguan Yu?" There was a shrewd look in Jie Li Khan's eyes.

Yunxi was shocked. She didn't understand why Jie Li Khan asked this, but she answered carefully: "Xiao Wan is gentle and kind, and thoughtful; Shangguan Yu is both wise and brave, and both are rare talents."

Jie Li Khan nodded, "Yes, they are indeed excellent. That's why I have been keeping an eye on them and asked the tribal chiefs to take good care of them. But they are people of the Tang Dynasty after all, and they will have to return to the Tang Dynasty one day. But..." He changed the subject, "I wonder if Shangguan Yu can still stand up with his injured leg?"

Yunxi was secretly delighted. From what Jie Li Khan said, he was planning to let Xiao Wan and Shangguan Yu return to the Tang Dynasty. She sighed with regret and said, "Shangguan Yu's leg injury is indeed serious, but if he is treated with good medicine and carefully nursed back to health, he may still be able to recover."

Jie Li Khan frowned slightly, "We have many famous doctors in the Turkic region, but they are helpless against his leg injury." Yun Xi took the opportunity to suggest, "I heard that the Khan has a bottle of elixir that can turn bones into flesh. This medicine is extremely precious. If used here, it will surely cure Shangguan Yu's leg disease."

Jie Li Khan's eyes flashed, "Oh? You are well-informed." After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "I can give you this medicine, but you must agree to one condition of mine."

Yunxi's heart sank. It really wasn't that easy. "What are the conditions? Khan, please let me know."

Jie Li Khan looked at her with a sharp gaze and said, "When they leave the Turks, you will follow me and become my princess."

Yunxi's face changed slightly. She didn't expect Jie Li Khan to make such a request, but there was no other way. She gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I promise you."

Jie Li Khan nodded with satisfaction, "That's great. Wait for me to tell someone to prepare the elixir, and you can take it to heal Shangguan Yu."

Yunxi thanked Jie Li Khan and left the tent. She was worried that although she had obtained the elixir, the road ahead would still be full of difficulties.

Yunxi took the elixir and returned to his tent with a heavy heart.

Princess Xiangcheng happened to come back and saw the elixir in Yunxi's hand and asked curiously.

Yunxi told her what happened.

Princess Xiangcheng was horrified. "How could you agree to such a condition?"

Yunxi sighed helplessly, "I have no choice. In order to get the elixir to treat Shangguan Yu, I can only agree to it first."

Princess Xiangcheng paced anxiously, "What should I do? Do you really want to marry Jie Li Khan? But you are the emperor's concubine and the prince's biological mother!"

Yunxi was silent for a while, "I will find a way and will never let this happen."

At this time, there was a noise outside the door. Yunxi and Princess Xiangcheng walked out of the tent to check, only to see a group of Turkic soldiers surrounding Xiaowan and Shangguan Yu.

Yunxi hurried forward to ask and learned that they were here to convey Jie Li Khan's order to take Xiaowan and Shangguan Yu away.

Yunxi's heart sank. It seemed that Jie Li Khan couldn't wait to implement his plan...

Yunxi secretly thought that she must find a way to get Xiaowan and Shangguan Yu back to the Tang Dynasty as soon as possible. She quickly returned to the tent and discussed countermeasures with Princess Xiangcheng.

"The most urgent task at the moment is to deliver the elixir to heal Shangguan Yu's leg injury." Yunxi said with a firm expression.

Princess Xiangcheng nodded in agreement: "But how can we avoid the close surveillance of the Turkic soldiers?"

Yunxi suddenly had an idea, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes: "I have a plan. We can take advantage of the opportunity tonight..."

As night fell, the moonlight dimmed and the wind howled. Yunxi and Princess Xiangcheng carefully lurked in the place where Xiaowan and Shangguan Yu were imprisoned. Yunxi handed the precious elixir to Shangguan Yu and told him to rest and recuperate.

"Thank you, Concubine Xi. I will never be able to repay you for your kindness in my lifetime." Shangguan Yu said with tears of gratitude.

"We are friends who have risked our lives for each other, there's no need to be so polite. You should leave quickly and be careful on the way." Yunxi hurriedly urged them to leave.

Xiaowan and Shangguan Yu were sitting in the carriage, feeling very excited. They knew that they were able to leave the Turkic camp this time thanks to the careful arrangements made by Yunxi and Princess Xiangcheng. Under the escort of the secret guards, the carriage drove smoothly on the grassland, gradually moving away from the Turkic camp.

Along the way, Xiaowan and Shangguan Yu felt the magnificent scenery of nature, but they were always worried about Yunxi and Princess Xiangcheng. They couldn't help but worry: "I wonder if Yunxi and Princess Xiangcheng can complete the mission successfully?"

At the same time, Yunxi and Princess Xiangcheng are facing a huge challenge. They know that it is not easy to make Jie Li Khan give up the idea of ​​continuing to attack the Tang Dynasty. But they are determined to come up with a foolproof plan.

After careful consideration, Yunxi and Princess Xiangcheng decided to use their wisdom and charm to influence Jie Li Khan. They began to have frequent contact with Jie Li Khan, understand his thoughts and needs through conversation, and try to find a solution to the problem.

In this process, Yunxi showed her intelligence and decisive decision-making ability. She skillfully guided the topic and made Jie Li Khan realize the possible consequences of attacking the Tang Dynasty. At the same time, Princess Xiangcheng also showed her gentleness and kindness, and moved Jie Li Khan's heart with her sincerity.

As time went by, Jie Li Khan's attitude towards Yunxi and Princess Xiangcheng changed. He began to seriously consider their suggestions and gradually realized that war was not the only way... But he was still very persistent in wanting Yunxi to be his legitimate wife...
