In danger, he traveled through time to save her, and the black-bellied prince doted on her

Shuo Fengyue listened to her words and reached out to grab her wrist that was scratching her face. His voice was colder than the wind on the grassland, like an order that no one dared to refuse:

"Your Highness, this rash cannot be touched again."

Meiluo took two steps back. Every time she saw the mask and heard his voice, she didn't dare to refute.

Mu Jinan stopped and paused, looking at his cold, slender fingers holding her wrist. She wanted to argue, but felt she was in the wrong. If she continued to scratch him, her face would be disfigured.

She said coldly: "Let go, it's because I indulged you too much that you dared to do that."

Shuo Fengyue gently put down her wrist, a little nervous: "My subordinate is rude."

Then he looked at Meiluo and said, "Trimmed the princess' nails."

Mei Luo bent her knees and bowed, "Yes."

Mu Jinan looked at Meiluo and glared at her: "Why are you afraid of him? He is just a stubborn man. You are the one who grew up with me."

"Put away the Mongolian books and hide them away so that no one can find them."

She walked in front by herself. She was actually shocked by his words just now. It seemed that she needed to practice more and show the demeanor of a princess. After a while, several people arrived at the king's tent.

There were more than a dozen people standing in front of the king's tent. The two leading them were about forty years old, dressed in gorgeous clothes. They should be the tribal chiefs.

She never told anyone that seventeen was just her virtual age, for she was afraid that others would think she was too young and could not control others.

Mu Jinan's voice was serious yet gentle, and his face was pleasant as he said:

"Who are you two?"

A man put his right arm across his chest, nodded slightly, and said with a smile:

"Chief Yelu Chang of the Chuhe tribe greets the princess."

The other person had a ruddy complexion and laughed heartily:

"Sun Jingyi, Chief of the Aoshi Tribe, greets the princess."

Mu Jinan knew that this clan had many surnames from the Central Plains, all of which were bestowed by the emperor. She nodded slightly in return:

"I have heard of your reputation a long time ago."

As she spoke, she entered the king's tent, followed closely by Shuo Fengyue. The two chiefs and their respective followers approached the king's tent and sat down.

Mu Jinan sat at the top and motioned Shuo Fengyue to pour tea for them. Meiluo hurriedly walked forward and poured tea for them one by one.

The chieftain of the Aoshi tribe, Sun Jingyi, looked at the luxurious and elegant tent and stroked his beard. His laughter was always deafening:

"It seems that our King Xi loves the princess very much."

"I used to be an official in Chang'an. I know that the princess may have difficulty adapting to the climate here. We have a miracle doctor in the Aoshi tribe who has developed this medicine. The rash will disappear in less than a day."

Xuan Li, the follower beside him, handed the plaster to Mei Luo. Mu Jinan thought to himself:

"He is indeed an old fox. He can seize opportunities in such delicate matters."

She smiled faintly: "Thank you, Lord Sun"

Yelu Chang, the chieftain of the Chuhe tribe, who was sitting on the left side below, had a kind face and said with a smile:

"Princess, I heard that you can reopen trade between Raole and Youzhou."

Mu Jinan nodded. It seemed that Shuo Fengyue was right. Yelu Chang really cared about people's livelihood.

"It is true. Jizhou, Youzhou, and Yingzhou are all within this princess's plan."

Yelu Chang was very happy. As long as the trade was reopened, his people would be able to live a better life. With a prosperous life, they would have money to do more things and fight for the right to rule. He concealed the calculation in his eyes:

"Thank you, Princess. I have two good horses. One is a purebred iron-hoofed horse. It can run as fast as lightning even on rough and rocky roads."

"One is a white Ujumchin horse, good at fighting, strong and fearless. I want to present it to the princess as a token of my gratitude for the trade."

Sun Jingqi, the chief of the Aoshi tribe, was unhappy because Yelu Chang had not told him that he was going to give the princess a good horse.

Feeling at a disadvantage, the two of them were at odds with each other and said in a sarcastic tone:

"It's just that a wild horse is hard to tame. If the princess gets hurt, it will delay her wedding..."

Mu Jin'an had no idea that this iron-hoofed horse was the famous horse that Genghis Khan used to conquer the world in history.

If they did not accept his gift, they would be enemies with them, and if they accepted it, they would be enemies with Li Yuanyang.

Mu Jinan pondered in her heart, seeing that the two of them seemed to be at odds, it would be better to let them fight among themselves first, instead of pointing all the spearheads at her, so she smiled and said:

"Thank you very much, Lord Yelu. This princess loves wild horses the most."

"When this princess's dowry arrives, I will select the most precious ones to send to you as a token of my thanks."

Yelu Chang and Sun Jingqi smiled at each other, then left and went their separate ways.

Yelu Chang was riding a horse, and the sound of jingling could be heard from his horse. He looked relaxed. During the long-term trade, Yelu Chang continued to learn about Han culture. His follower Zhang Zhi was very familiar with the Central Plains culture. He asked:

"Chief, do you think this princess is a match for King Xi?"

Yelu Chang looked at the Saker Falcon flying in the sky. Its pure white jade claws were extremely rare. Its kind face seemed to have disappeared, and the bloodthirsty and sinister look in its eyes made people tremble:

"You should ask, is this princess a match for Emperor Su?"

"If the king refuses to obey, she can just kill him. But if millions of people refuse to obey, can she kill them all?"

Zhang Zhi thought of what she had done yesterday and continued:

"He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world, so on the first day she arrived in Raole, she had to find cattle and sheep for the tribe."

Yelu Chang raised his hand to block the strong light coming towards him, and shook his head.

"She has won the hearts of the people in Chang'an. If she establishes her prestige in the grassland, she should not be underestimated. In short, as long as she opens up the trade, we should make money first. In addition to warriors, we also need money to fight a war."

"For hundreds of years, our Xi people have been oppressed and ruled by the two neighboring tribes. Our territory and population are inferior to theirs. If I can conquer the grasslands, I will become famous and be praised by future generations, which will make my life worthwhile."

"Once a princess marries here, she will never be allowed to return."

"When I take the throne, I will ask the Emperor of Chang'an to issue an imperial decree to let her marry me."

"When she marries my son in the future, her children will surely not be cowards. There is no need to worry that her descendants will not be able to dominate the grasslands."

"In ten years, fifty years, there will always be a day when we will dominate. We just need to pave the way for our descendants."

Zhang Zhi looked at the princess, who had a heroic look and an arrogant personality. He was afraid that she would not easily cooperate with them, but he did not want to displease Yelu Chang, so he asked:

"Then should we attack the Central Plains?"

Yelu Chang rode his horse up a slope, breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"If she doesn't want the grassland to attack Shengguo, then we won't fight. As long as we can please her and let her borrow troops from the Central Plains, we can unify the various tribes in the north."

"Business is all about long-term, we go back and forth. If she resents the emperor for sending her to marry, we will help her capture Chang'an and become emperor together."

Zhang Zhi felt uneasy, worried that it was just Yelu Chang's wishful thinking. When he gave her a gift today and she said she wanted to return the gift, it meant she was drawing a line in the sand. She asked again:

"What if she doesn't want to conquer the grasslands or attack the Central Plains?"

Yelu Chang stopped his horse and looked at the white clouds floating in the distance that seemed to have fallen into the lake. He smiled strangely and said:

"Kill her, or keep her alive to reproduce"

...

The moonlight is dim tonight, the temperature on the grassland is low at night, and the chill is very severe. Mu Jinan hides in the king's tent, sits by the stove, flipping through a book with his chin in his hand, when he suddenly smells a whiff of wine.

I saw Shuo Fengyue warming up the wine by the stove, filling a cup with steaming wine, and handing it to her:

"Princess, please try this wine."
