Crossing the grassland, the rough general, please set me free

Chapter 211 You Have Long Become a Wandering Ghost

Mingzhu had been imprisoned for so many days without even seeing her parents, and now she was starting to feel scared. He was just a man, no matter how good he was, she couldn't risk her life on him, especially since he was so cruel and didn't care about their past.

As soon as he heard what Geshu said, he immediately told the whole story in detail.

The others in the tent sighed after hearing this.

I never thought that the person I have seen growing up would be like this.

Helian Zhen wanted to argue, but was interrupted by Yan Lie, "I know you won't admit it. Send all the military doctors over here."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bu Re brought everyone in from outside.

After several officials saluted in the center of the seat, the military doctor of the Keerlun tribe examined and compared the process of Helian Zhen buying the medicine and the residual medicine powder salvaged from Mingzhu, confirming that they were all prepared by him.

Helian Zhen was speechless for a moment and looked around nervously. She certainly knew how serious the crime of killing offspring in the clan was. It was all because of this Mingzhu, a bitch who was more of a hindrance than a help.

"Helian Zhen, now that the facts are in front of us, what else do you have to say?" Geshu was also disheartened after hearing what happened.

How could the child I watched grow up become like this?

Helian Zhen snorted coldly, and lost her previous arrogance. She said with all her might,

"If you want to accuse someone, you can always find a pretext. If I didn't do it, then it wasn't me. She said I taught her to drug her. Did anyone see or hear it? You want to convict me based on just a few packets of drug powder. I don't accept it."

Mingzhu, who was standing by, became anxious instantly and grabbed Helian Zhen's clothes pendant.

"Princess, you gave me all these medicines, and I administered them according to your instructions. I only went because you said there would be no problem. Now that the truth has been revealed, you can't do this, can you?"

Helian Zhen pulled back the corner of her clothes with a look of disdain on her face.

"Do we know each other well? I think we've only met a few times. Everyone knows how you feel about Yan Lie. You've done something so shameful yourself, and you're trying to drag others down with you? You shouldn't have accepted your Yanqing tribe in the first place, causing so much trouble."

"Everyone knows?" Yan Lie said in a deep voice, turning to look at the tribesmen around him, "Do you know about this?"

Everyone around shook their heads.

"never heard of that."

"If I hadn't come here today, I wouldn't know."

You say something to everyone, and I say something.

Helian Zhen was startled, realizing that she had said the wrong thing in a hurry. She had discovered this matter herself. No one in the camp knew about it.

My heart was pounding and I was trying desperately to make up for it.

Mingzhu saw this and quickly followed.

"I told the princess that my daughter loves the Khan. If it weren't for the princess's guidance, how could I have drugged her so accurately? I beg the Khan to investigate. Now I know I was wrong and I will never do it again."

"Geshu, now the facts are out there, you decide how to deal with it."

Yan Lie didn't want to get entangled with the two of them any more. He just wanted to get this matter over with quickly, so he went back to the tent to accompany Lin Shu.

After hearing this, Geshu nodded and announced the punishment that he had previously discussed with Yan Lie in public.

The people in the tent also understood this, but due to their identities, they did not say anything. Instead, they felt that Yan Lie was a man who valued friendship and loyalty.

Mingzhu collapsed to the ground upon hearing the result. Whipping and laboring for a year would have been enough to make her life miserable. Luckily, she had survived and hadn't been implicated in the Yanqing Division. Later, she could ask her father to find a way to make her life easier in the labor camp.

When Helian Zhen heard this, she felt like she had fallen from heaven into a quagmire. What a hell of a place was that labor camp? There was endless work to do every day, and there would be punishment if you didn't finish it. She had been there so many times in her life that she could count them on one hand.

She used to be high and mighty, but now she has fallen to the level of a menial labor camp. Who knows how people will laugh at her in the future.

I felt a little crazy for a moment,

"I don't want to go there. You can't do this to me. Have you forgotten what you promised father? You can't go back on your word."

Yan Lie looked at her madness, his heart was calm, but when he heard the Khan's name, his heart couldn't help but ache, his eyes gradually darkened, and his whole body radiated icy coldness.

"If it weren't for the Khan, you would have been a wandering ghost long ago."

Helian Zhen paused. He was warning himself. If the tribe knew about those things, who knows what the consequences would be?

The words I wanted to curse out were all stuck in my throat.

Tears welled up in my eyes, but I tried hard not to let them fall.

Soon both of them were taken away for execution. Considering that they were both women, Geshu showed leniency and only gave them thirty lashes, which were carried out in two batches.

The tent was finally quiet.

Everyone dispersed, leaving only Yan Lie and Geshu.

"Brother Geshu, you will handle the follow-up of this matter. If Helian Zhen has any problems in the future, you don't have to report to me."

"Yes, Khan."

Geshu nodded hesitantly, he always felt that there was something else going on between Yan Lie and Helian Zhen.

But since Yan Lie didn't say anything himself, he didn't dare to ask too much.

. . . . . . . . . . .

Soha tribe.

As usual, Bumtai patrolled the camp and then returned to his tent.

As soon as I reached the door, I saw Ai Ronggaowa standing at the door of the tent.

The guard was talking to her.

Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Rong Hui saw her with her sharp eyes, "Princess, it's the eldest prince."

Now, Bumtai really can't leave.

Ai Rong Gaowa followed the direction of Rong Hui's voice and saw her husband. She smiled and greeted him.

"I've met the eldest prince."

"Well, why are you here? Is there something wrong?" Bumtai walked up to her and stood in front of her.

"The eldest prince hasn't come to my tent to eat in the past two days, so I came to see him."

"I was a bit busy these two days, so I didn't go. It was my oversight, please don't take it to heart."

Arong Gaowa sensed the politeness and distance in Bumtai's tone, but she still maintained a decent smile on her face.

"Yes, I understand. I came to the First Prince's tent before and found some of the books on his bookshelf quite interesting, so I wanted to take a look again."

"Books? You can also read the characters from the Central Plains? I didn't realize you had this hobby before." Bumtai was incredulous. He really didn't expect that this cow could also read these.

"Well, before, Aunt Lin..." Ai Ronggaowa realized that she had said the wrong thing and immediately corrected herself, "I learned the Central Plains characters from someone before."

"You just mentioned Lin Shu. Did you have much interaction with her before?" When Bumutai heard Lin Shu's name, his originally dim eyes instantly lit up again.

Seeing the changes in the person in front of her, Ai Ronggaowa felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

Is it only when I mention that person that he is willing to talk more to me?
