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

Bumtai stayed in the tent, his mind full of what Lin Shu said last night.

Ever since I met her, she always seemed to be saying, "I don't want it, I don't like it..."

But I never paid attention to what she said about "wanting".

He used every possible means to keep her by his side, which is why he escaped again and again.

I originally thought that Yan Lie and I were using the same method, it was just a matter of first come first served.

Now he finally understood that he was wrong.

He never respected her wishes.

If I hadn't treated her like that, maybe she wouldn't hate herself so much.

At this time, someone came in to report.

"Grand Prince, Lord Li sent word back to the camp early this morning that Lord Qin was injured. Natu'a sent someone to inquire if any preparations are needed."

Bumtai thought for a while and said, "Tell Natu'a to stay where he is and not to act rashly without my order."

"Yes, eldest prince."

He understood Qin Yue's hidden meaning last night. It seems that this time the Bahrain tribe will have to hand over their weapons even if they don't want to.

What’s even more strange is that Shu’er actually agreed to it.

What was she thinking? The court of Qi was complicated and intricate, not as simple as the grassland.

Bumtai couldn't guess her intention, and felt upset, so he got up and went for a walk outside.

Walking in the camp of the Bahraini tribe.

Because he had some fake beard on his face, no one here recognized him.

Along the way, many people were discussing Helian Zhen, saying all kinds of things, but most of them hoped to execute her quickly to comfort her soul.

Bumtai was not interested in these and continued walking forward.

I saw some people gathered in front of me, and when I walked over, I realized that

Geshu asked all his tribesmen to go home and look for any documents from the Central Plains. Those who had good relations with the Qi merchant caravans in the past and knew some of the customs of the Qi people could go to Bure to register.

"Qi? Who else would have things from Qi?"

"That's right. In the past, when the Qi caravan passed by, they would buy some things from them, but these things were gone by the last time."

"The books from Qi, that's even more impossible. I wonder what the Khan wants these things for? Is he trying to please the Queen Mother again?"

. . . . . . . . .

Hearing the word "Queen", Bumtai's eyes lit up instantly, and the corners of his mouth slowly rose.

She is worthy of being the woman he has his eyes on.

But I was a little confused. Wasn't she from Qi? She should know everything, so why was she looking for something from Qi?

Unless, she is not from Qi at all!!!

Bumtai was also shocked by her own thoughts. Thinking back, her speech and behavior were indeed different from those of women from Qi.

The book she wrote was completely contrary to the secluded upbringing of women in Qi State.

Who is she???

Bumtai returned to the tent and immediately called for help.

"Go and send a letter to Natu'a, and have someone return to Soha to bring all the books and maps on my shelf here."

The attendant thought he had misheard and asked again, "Is the eldest prince going to be sent here?"

"Aren't you deaf? Send them back to the camp gate."

"Yes, eldest prince."

After the attendant took the order and left, Bumutai took a deep breath and said, "Shu'er, I hope I can help you."

He had just guessed that Lin Shu might want to come up with something for Qin Yue based on Qi's own situation.

Li Chongguang had said before that Qi and Chen did not get along well, so could it be because of this incident?

Thinking of this, he ordered someone to get paper and pen.

. . . . . . . . . .

The people sent by Geshu were very efficient.

In less than two days, he had found all the things related to Qi from other departments and this department.

There are also some national customs of Qi compiled by Bu Re, but they were all narrated by passing caravans.

Most of the books I found were picture books.

Lin Shu flipped through it casually. It contained some fictional stories and was not very useful.

There is a book about farming in Qi State, which talks about crops such as indica rice, japonica rice, millet, and beans.

Rice is mainly distributed in the south, while millet is mainly distributed in the north.

This also shows that the territory of Qi State was very vast, and there were obvious differences in the climate environment between the north and the south.

The terrain of each region is also different.

If it involves military and political affairs, the scope will be wider, and we currently have too little information.

Lin Shu sighed, leaned back on the felt couch, and stared blankly at the ceiling of the tent.

When Yan Lie came in, he saw her in a daze with a book in her hand. He walked over and sat down beside her.

"Shu'er, what's wrong? What are you thinking about?"

Lin Shu shook his head helplessly and told him his thoughts.

"Don't worry, I'll think of a way from the people around Qin Yue."

"It can only be the."

"But Shu'er, why don't you just ask him? That would be much more convenient."

Lin Shu smiled. "The officialdom in the Central Plains is different from yours. They like to speak half a sentence, leaving you to guess. Sometimes they don't even say a sentence at all, leaving you to figure it out on your own."

Yan Lie pouted, "Wouldn't that be tiring? It's boring. There are so many twists and turns there."

"You don't understand, right? On the contrary, it's people like this who will climb the ladder more easily. The smart ones can get things done beautifully with just a glance from their superiors, without even a word. If you were a monarch, wouldn't you dislike such people? That's why we do everything in advance. When we meet, no matter what he asks, we have a response and a backup plan. If you don't know anything, he will only think that our Bahrain tribe is easy to control."

"Hey, Shu'er, you're really thoughtful. I'll help you look for it. It just so happens that I know a lot of Qi characters now."

"Well, this is a good way to teach on the spot."

After that, neither of them spoke, each reading a book.

The only sound in the tent was the rustling of pages.

When Dunzhu came in, the two of them didn't even raise their heads.

"Great Khan, Grand Consort. A group of people arrived at the camp gate, claiming to be delivering something."

Yan Lie glanced at Lin Shu and asked, "What are you sending me?"

"This servant didn't know that the carriage was loaded with wooden boxes. The guard wanted to open it for inspection, but the person who came said that the boxes must be opened by the Queen herself."

"Me?" Lin Shu looked confused and pointed at himself. "Did they really say that? Did you hear correctly? I don't know many people here. Who would send me something?"

"Shu'er, how about we go out and take a look?"

"Well, the mysterious gift has piqued my curiosity. Let's go and take a look."

Yan Lie took Lin Shu's hand and came to the camp gate.

There were a few wooden boxes piled on the carriage, and five or six people standing in front of it.

Lin Shu recalled carefully and confirmed that he did not know them.

"What are you going to give me?"
