To Rule in a Turbulent World

You Miao and Li Zhifeng withdrew, but this time they didn't see Batu Khan and the Queen Mother Baoyin again. Li Zhifeng was a little impatient and thought of Sikhland again, so You Miao comforted him: "We have to stay here for a whole day." It's winter. Don't worry."

Li Zhifeng said: "I'll go out for a walk."

You Miao wanted to stop Li Zhifeng, but changed his mind. These days, Li Zhifeng was inseparable from him, but he knew that there was something in Li Zhifeng's heart.It's because of the timidity of being close to the hometown, but also because of anger and fear. Maybe he wants to hear a few words of Quanrong language, but he is disappointed with the former clansman and doesn't want to get close.

Like a wild wolf who has been alone and experienced many hardships, it is circling outside the nest, wondering if it is time to return to its former territory.

You Miao didn't stop him, let him be quiet and think about it, after all, You Miao couldn't share with him about the blood.

As soon as Li Zhifeng left, Lin Ke came back and nodded towards You Miao when he entered the hospital. You Miao understood, turned around and followed into Lin Ke's room. As soon as the door closed, Lin Ke immediately changed his face and looked at You Miao. Saluted, said with a smile: "Good news, young master, Daleke is not in Da'an City at this time."

You Miao asked in surprise, "Where did you go?"

Lin Ke was startled, and then replied, "That's not clear."

"It's really good news." You Miao nodded. In this way, as long as you are careful, there must be no one in Da'an who can recognize Li Zhifeng.But the fact that Darleko is not in Da'an City also contains a lot of information.

What did Darleko do after leaving Da'an?The king of the clan should bring a lot of personal guards...You Miao remembered what he saw last time in Yizhou, the captain of Darleko's personal guards. That guy sent the prince overseas. I don't know if he has returned.

At this moment, someone came to communicate again: Lan Moyin asked You Miao to enter the palace to speak.

Here's what to do again.You Miaodeng felt a headache.

Lin Ke teased: "It's rare that the little girl cares so much about the young master."

You Miao shook her head and smiled bitterly: "The two clans will fight in the future. If she knows who I am, she will inevitably curse me into ashes in the north." After speaking, she took the gift for Queen Mother Baoyin, took it out, and entered again. Inside Xiling Palace.

Come and go, entered three times in two days, when You Miao arrived in the palace.The sky was already dark, and the surrounding lights were lit. This time, the servant took him to the most magnificent part of the side hall. You Miao was worried, knowing that he was probably going to see the Queen Mother.

I saw the splendid gold decorations in the palace, the lampstands on both sides were made of gold and silver, a huge carpet was spread in the middle, at the end of the carpet there was a soft floor, piled up with pillows, Lan Moyin knelt beside her, a woman with a full face A noble old lady sat in the middle.

Sitting next to him was a ten-year-old boy, and You Miao had a lot of fun in his heart.

You Miao knelt down on one knee as a foreign commoner in accordance with the Tatar etiquette, with one hand on his chest, and bowed reverently to Baoyin.

The Empress Dowager Baoyin's voice was hoarse and she said a few words. Lan Moyin looked at You Miao and couldn't help laughing.

You Miao raised her head in a daze, frowned at Lan Moyin, the Empress Dowager Baoyin said something more reproachfully, and Lan Moyin translated: "Let's be flat, and I'll give you a seat."

You Miao got up and sat down, and the boy on the other side looked at You Miao with interest, and explained: "My mother said that the weather is cold, and you southerners are used to staying in the north..."

At this moment, the Empress Dowager Baoyin spoke again, and the young man immediately cut off the conversation. After she finished speaking, Lan Moyin translated: "May I ask you, Mr. Fang, what kind of tea did you bring?"

"Return to the Queen Mother." You Miao smiled and said, "This tea is called Biluochun."

Lan Moyin didn't know how to translate, so You Miao introduced the origin of Biluochun to the three of them, and said something vaguely. The Empress Dowager Baoyin seemed very satisfied, and You Miao noticed a string of beads in her hand.Then he took out the prepared gift from his sleeve and handed it out respectfully.

Batu on the side reached out to take it, and You Miao secretly thought that this family would be too easy to assassinate... If you want to put some poisonous arrows in the box, you can't dodge it at all. It seems that the Tatars are still relatively smart. Relatively simple.

The Empress Dowager Baoyin opened the box and flipped through the Buddhist scriptures inside. You Miao said to Lan Moyin, "Fang came to Da'an this time, and was taken care of by the nobles, so he wanted to bring this Buddhist scripture here to express his heart."

Lan Moyin translated it, and the Empress Dowager Baoyin looked up at You Miao, and asked a question, Batu translated: "Fang, do you also believe in Buddhism?"

You Miao replied: "My mother worshiped Buddha in the past."

The Empress Dowager Baoyin asked again, Lan Moyin smiled and said, "Your mother lived a long life?"

You Miao replied: "He has passed away."

There is no need to translate this sentence. The Empress Dowager Baoyin also saw it, she nodded slowly, and beckoned You Miao to pass. Yin took it and asked You Miao to bow her head and put it on his neck.

Batu laughed and said: "My mother said, bringing the Buddhist scriptures is enough to show your sincerity. Although we are the royal family, we can't take things from your Han people for nothing. I'll give you this piece of yellow silk. It's time to do business in Da'an." Here, it is convenient to pass.”

You Miao hurriedly clasped his hands together and saluted earnestly. The Empress Dowager Baoyin seemed a little sleepy, so she waved her hand to make You Miao go down.

When You Miao came out of the palace, seeing the empress Dowager Baoyin's sleepy look, she was afraid that she would be flattered on the horse's feet, so she was a little nervous for a while, but just a few steps out, Batu caught up and said, "You, stop."

You Miao hurriedly turned around. He naturally didn't pay attention to children like Batu, and it was easy to deal with, so he cupped his hands respectfully and said, "See Dahan."

Batu smiled, waved his hands and said, "Wait for me, your name is Fang Sheng?"

"Yes." You Miao didn't expect Batu to speak Chinese well, so she said, "Princess Lan..."

"She is talking with my mother." Batu said: "Mother asked me to send you out of the palace. I still have a few words to talk to you."

You Miao nodded hurriedly. As soon as Batu came out, a group of guards followed behind them, all watching them vigilantly. You Miao always bowed slightly, hunched over, and walked a little behind Batu.

"Are you from Jiangnan?" Batu asked immediately, "The tea you brought is very good. My mother likes it, and so do I."

You Miao nodded and said, "Back to Dahan, Fang Sheng's family has lived in the south of the Yangtze River for generations. If Dahan likes that tea, Fang Sheng will ask the southerners to bring some over next time."

"Well, very good." Batu said again: "I heard from my mother that your Lin Ke is going to open a bank in Da'an."

You Miao also knew about this, and opened a bank in Da'an to facilitate transactions between the two parties.But that was Lin Ke's business, and You Miao didn't know how to answer, so he had to answer: "It's all thanks to the great Khan that the Han people can open a bank in Da'an. The brothers in the caravan mentioned this, and they all thank the Great Khan... "

But Batu seemed to have no right to speak on this matter, and replied with a smile: "I also spoke for you in front of my mother last time. There is no problem with the bank."

You Miao laughed, thinking that the young emperor was really interesting, simple-minded and easy to talk, but from these short words, it could be seen that Batu had no real power.

You Miao said again: "Khan, there is nothing to do now, why not go to the place where the villain lives and have a cup of tea? The little one also brought some rare treasures from the south, and let the Khan choose whatever he wants."

But Batu laughed and said, "No, I will summon you into the palace when I am free in a few days."

You Miao had no choice but to nod. The two stood opposite each other. You Miao couldn't help but look at the young boy. Batu was considered tall among his peers, but he was still not as tall as You Miao.The leader of the Tatars, the king of sixteen tribes, looked like a playful child.

You Miao can quite understand Batu's thoughts, who didn't like to play when they were young?You Miao felt a little pity, and said again: "My subordinate will stay in Da'an for a whole winter, and Da Khan can come to me anytime."

Batu's eyes lit up, he nodded with a smile, and gestured again: "Keep the things for me to see."

You Miao nodded, and when she was turning around, she suddenly saw a burly man approaching and was startled. The man looked You Miao up and down, and asked a Tatar word. Batu put one hand on You Miao's shoulder. He excused, and motioned him to go quickly with his eyes.

You Miao thought that the person who could talk like this was probably Prince Gegen, and it was not appropriate to provoke this fellow, so she bowed her head and resigned.

As soon as she walked through the palace gate and got into the carriage, she heard voices outside. You Miao glanced at it and immediately pulled down the curtain.

He Motie'er asked a question, not far from the car, You Miao's heart was beating wildly, he remembered this man so much, he only heard the sound of horses' hooves and stopped beside the car, He Motie'er said Sentence in Chinese.

"There are Han people inside?"

You Miao's heart suddenly rose to his throat, his whole body was cold, he was not sure if He Motie'er still remembered him, just when he wanted to take a risk, there were guards speaking Tatar outside.Presumably Batu sent someone here because he was afraid that He Motie'er would make things difficult for You Miao.He Motie'er just gave up.

The sound of horseshoes went away, and You Miao let out a long sigh and collapsed on the seat.
