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

After all, Bu Re had led soldiers before, so dealing with a woman was naturally no problem for him.

After just a few rounds, Helian Zhen was easily subdued.

"Bu Re, what kind of man are you if you hit a woman?"

Helian Zhen's arm was twisted by him and she couldn't move, so she said viciously.

Bu Re glanced at her and said, "Are you dissatisfied? Save it for when you see the Khan later."

After saying that, he escorted Helian Zhen to the main camp.

And Yan Lie in the tent,

After receiving the news sent back by Bu Re, he looked down at Chao Lu.

"Looks like I'll have to save this wine for tomorrow night. Haha."

Chao Lu smiled and drank all the remaining wine in the bowl. "Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, this wine is really getting more and more drunk."

Yan Lie shouted outside the tent, "Come here, help Lord Chao Lu back to the tent to rest."

Two guards came in, one on each side, and carried the drunk Chao Lu out of the tent.

quickly,

Helian Zhen was escorted into the main camp.

He sneered and looked at the person sitting in the main seat.

Yan Lie's cold eyes swept over her and he ordered the nearest guard, "Go and invite Concubine Yun Xihe and Lord Geshu over."

The Bahrain tribe, which was quiet at night, suddenly became lively again because of the capture of Helian Zhen.

When Yun Xihe received the news, he immediately ordered someone to find Chao Lu.

But when the servant came back, he said Chao Lu was drunk and couldn't come.

Helplessly, Yun Xihe could only rush to the main camp.

As soon as he entered, he saw Helian Zhen standing in the middle with disheveled hair. He quickly stepped forward and protected her behind him, "Zhen'er. Don't be afraid."

"Princess Yun Xihe, what are you doing?" Geshu, who was sitting next to her, asked.

"As you can see, I want to take her away from the Balin tribe. If you still remember Helian Tao's friendship, please let Zhen'er go."

Now that he has been discovered, Yun Xihe has decided to go all out.

When Helian Tao was mentioned, Yan Lie and Ge Shu's eyes flickered slightly, and the atmosphere in the big tent became somewhat tense.

Finally, it was Geshu who broke the deadlock.

"A country has its own laws, and a family has its own rules. Helian Zhen's crimes must be severely punished to serve as a warning to others. Concubine Yun Xihe, you are well aware of the rules of the Balin tribe, yet you knowingly broke the law. Considering this is your first offense, for the sake of Balin Khan, I will not pursue the matter further. You may leave tomorrow."

"What a warning to others! Haven't you all done anything wrong? Yan Lie, you repeatedly contradicted Helian Tao over that Central Plains woman. Did he ever punish you? Geshu, when you drank too much and nearly delayed military intelligence, did Helian Tao punish you? Why can't you show some mercy to Zhen'er? I will take her away and never set foot in the Balin tribe again."

Helian Zhen looked at the people standing in front of her. Everyone wanted to kill her, but this person had been protecting her in his own way.

The long-frozen heart slowly thawed.

She had originally been determined to die when she tried to assassinate Qin Yue, so living a few more days was a gain.

Yan Lie tightened his fists slightly.

"I've given her chances before, but what did I get? She's been causing trouble time and time again. When the Khan handed the Balin tribe to me, he made me swear to protect Helian Zhen. Because of her, Shu'er was in danger several times. I kept letting Shu'er down, out of gratitude for the Khan's kindness. This time, she was even more audacious and tried to assassinate Qin Yue, nearly destroying the entire Balin tribe. Since we've mentioned Balin Khan, it's just right that Geshu is here too, so let's get this straight. Before the Khan died, I promised him two things. One was to lead the tribe back to their homeland, and I have already... I've already done it. Another thing is to protect Helian Zhen, but I'm afraid I'll have to break my promise on this one. I can't watch you put the Balin tribe in danger again. You always say I'm the Great Khan because of your father. If you knew me well enough, you'd know I have no desire to be in power. I just want to live a peaceful life with Shu'er. Once the Balin tribe stabilizes, I'll hand the position of Great Khan to Degejin. You may think I'm ungrateful, but I have a clear conscience towards the Balin tribe. I feel guilty towards Shu'er, I feel guilty towards the Balin Khan, but I've done my best for you, Helian Zhen."

Helian Zhen looked at him in disbelief, her heart feeling like it was being tightly gripped by an invisible hand, so tight that it hurt.

I didn't expect that he would even give up the position of Khan for that woman.

Willing to live an ordinary life with her.

The thing that he had longed for for so many years, in the end, that woman got it easily.

A sentence Yun Xihe once said came to mind, "If you really understood him, you wouldn't have been unable to get into his heart for so many years."

She always thought she knew Yan Lie very well, but now it seems that she really doesn't understand him at all.

She's been like a clown for so long.

For a man, she made herself so embarrassed and even angered her father to death, the person who loved her the most in the world.

With all hope gone, he walked to Yun Xihe's side and looked at the person sitting at the top.

"Yan Lie, don't you just want to kill me? Why are you talking so much nonsense? But before you die, I want you to promise me something."

As soon as the words fell, Yun Xihe immediately pulled her back, "Zhen'er, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Helian Zhen didn't reply to her, but just looked at Yan Lie, "How is it?"

"you say?"

"I want to die in your hands. I've loved you for so many years, but I've never gotten a response from you. This time, I'll take it as your repayment."

"Zhen'er, stop talking nonsense. I will definitely take you away." Yun Xihe's eyes turned red with anxiety, and he held her arm tightly.

Helian Zhen smiled lightly, pushed Yun Xihe's hand away, and slowly walked to Yan Lie.

"In fact, I didn't want to live a long time ago. Every day I see the man I love happily accompanying another woman, and my heart aches. What's so good about her that makes you all revolve around her? For her, Bumtai even threw me to the coalition forces to be humiliated. Hehe, do you know how scared and helpless I was at that time? The only belief that kept me alive was you. I have been waiting for you to save me. But you didn't come? After going through so much hardship, I finally came back, but you are getting married. I can't accept it, I really can't accept it. Why? Can't you see me?"

Inside the tent, except for Yun Xihe sobbing softly, the others were silent for a while.

a long time,

Yan Lie said calmly,

"It's all your own fault."

There was no expression on his face, as if he had just heard something very ordinary.

Helian Zhen's breathing stagnated, and her heart felt like it was stabbed several times. Although she knew the result, she couldn't help but want to ask.

Looking at the man I have loved for so many years, I laughed.

As I was laughing, two lines of tears fell.

"Okay, it's all my fault. Hahahaha. Yes, it's all my fault..."

"In that case, go ahead."

After saying that, he raised his head slightly and closed his eyes.

Yan Lie glanced at Bu Re beside him.

Bu Re nodded, sighed deeply, took out a small bottle from his arms, walked in front of her,

"This is the most respectable way to treat you."
