"And there's a welcome ceremony?"
The excessive enthusiasm of the Turks made Bai Song feel uncomfortable, but it was not easy to offend other people's traditions. He asked in a low voice: "I just want to know where Shu Wang is?"
"Shu Wang... Shu Wang... it's been a few months, why can't I still talk about Shu Wang?" Badu complained softly in Bai Song's ear.
Bai Song's expression changed, thinking that she had changed her mind temporarily.
When Badu saw this, he frowned and smiled: "Seeing how anxious you are, I know that your comfort is more important than anyone else. I will ask you about the situation later and promise to give you an answer. But for now, I will arrange for you to go to a Rest in the tent and wait until the welcome ceremony is ready. After the welcome ceremony is over, I will help you find someone."
After hearing this, Bai Song nodded.
Bai Song didn't know how long this ceremony would last. After Badu arranged it, a young Turkic girl took Bai Song to a separate tent.
It was extremely noisy outside, and a Han Chinese who didn't understand the language seemed out of place among it.
Bai Song was happy to have a quiet space with no one around.
It's just that the young Turkic girl had no intention of leaving after sending Bai Song into the tent. She sat alone at the door and stared at Bai Song seriously.
Bai Song was not used to this. He opened his mouth to ask something, but before he could speak, he remembered the language barrier again, so he said no more.
The excitement outside was still going on, but Badu had left the crowd after Bai Song left.
In another tent, a Turk with a bandage on his waist and abdomen saw the new patriarch approaching and knelt on the ground in fear: "See the patriarch."
"Brother Fengtu, are your injuries okay?"
"Thank you for your concern, Patriarch. I have no shame in facing the Patriarch again."
"Brother Fengtu, what are you talking about? What are your crimes?"
"The guilty minister abandoned the clan leader to save his own life. If the clan leader cannot return safely, I will have no choice but to forgive my sin."
"The situation was urgent at that time. If you didn't leave, your life would have been in vain. Is this your fault alone?"
"Clan leader...I..."
Badu stepped forward to help her up and continued to ask: "Do you know why I came to you? Where is that woman?"
"He is being guarded by the clan."
Hearing this, Badu frowned visibly, and for a moment he didn't know whether he should be happy or disappointed.
"Patriarch, I will inform my subordinates to release the Han woman."
"Wait a minute." Baduo interrupted, still deep in thought.
Feng Tu looked at the clan leader and frowned: "The clan leader means to kill..."
"Take me to see her first!"
…
In the remote tent, the thinning woman was in a daze, and it was very lively outside.
This was the first time she had seen this tribe showing such excitement in the two months since she had been here.
The person who usually guarded her was also gone. She tore a hole in the edge of the tent, then stuck out her head and carefully watched the movements around her.
Tonight is a God-given opportunity. Although I don’t know what is happening outside, this is definitely a good opportunity to escape.
Li Shuwang had been waiting for this opportunity for two months.
She wanted to escape from this place, not for anyone else, but just to survive for herself.
Although we can still be safe for now, no one knows how long this calm will last.
She is the bargaining chip in exchange for the Turkic princess.
But she also knew very well that her grandfather would never trade the enemy's princess for herself.
In Grandpa's heart, state affairs are more important than anything else, and Grandpa cannot abandon public service for personal reasons.
This deal cannot be completed. One day, the Turks will lose their patience, and at that time, they will die.
Two months have passed, and Li Shuwang feels that she is becoming more and more dangerous, and she must take action.
Thinking that there is at least one person in the world who is desperate for himself, his life is his, and others are working so hard for him, how can he give up?
It is precisely because of the person who is desperate for herself that Li Shuwang is full of strength even if she is trapped in the enemy camp. She will not give up hope and must make every effort.
Seeing that no one was outside, Li Shuwang quietly slipped out through the opening at the back of the tent.
After living for two months, she was very familiar with everything here, and she had even planned her escape route.
Behind is a blazing bonfire, where all the Turks are reveling.
Li Shuwang took a few steps in the opposite direction of the bonfire. His joy lasted only a few seconds when a group of people suddenly walked quickly in front of him.
Judging from his posture, it was obvious that he was heading towards Li Shuwang's camp.
Li Shuwang was shocked. He didn't expect that he was so unlucky. He was just about to escape when someone came.
I have left now, and if I return now, I will inevitably find loopholes, and it will be difficult to leave again in the future.
Thinking of this, Li Shuwang changed his mind and continued walking along the established route.
After thinking about it, she turned around and saw several people already standing behind her.
"Li Shuwang? Where are you going?"
Li Shuwang's face darkened and he was speechless. He was about to fight them fiercely when he suddenly felt something was wrong.
The person speaking was a woman, and she actually spoke Chinese.
Very few of these Turks can speak Chinese. She has been here for two months and has not met a woman who can speak Chinese.
This woman had an extraordinary aura. Standing in front of several Turkic men, she had the air of a superior.
The key point is, why does this woman's voice sound familiar?
At this time, a more familiar voice came from behind the Turks.
"Miss...you...are you okay?"
Xu Changtian came over and knelt in front of Li Shuwang with a trembling voice.
They made it all the way here with difficulty, and finally saw the young lady, and finally saw that the young lady was alive and well. Their inner excitement could only be understood by tears.
A grown man just knelt on the ground and cried.
"Xu...Brother Xu...you...why are you here?"
"The villain took the young lady back to the Tang Dynasty under the secret order of the general."
"Grandpa...Grandpa asked you to pick me up?"
"Exactly!"
"How could Grandpa do that?"
"The general said he didn't care about the lady, but secretly he asked the villain to escort the Turkic princess here in exchange for the lady."
Hearing this, Li Shuwang burst into tears. She never imagined that her grandfather would do something detrimental to the Tang Dynasty for her own sake.
I never thought that grandpa would save me, but now that I think about it, I was wrong to blame grandpa.
Li Shuwang actually felt a little bit more ashamed in his heart.
"Okay, we Turks always value promises! We will definitely do what we promise you. Xu Changtian, take your lady and leave quickly. We will not embarrass you anymore."
Badu stood in front of the two of them, expressionless and speaking seriously.
After hearing this, Xu Changtian stood up quickly, pulled the young lady and urged: "Miss, let's leave quickly to prevent the Turks from temporarily changing their minds."
Li Shuwang was overjoyed and didn't think too much. He nodded calmly: "Okay, I'll go with you."
"Miss, do you have anything else you need to bring? Don't leave it behind."
"Come on, hurry up, I have nothing to bring."
The two got up to communicate, then mounted the horses brought by the Turks. They had a smooth journey and soon left the Turks' camp.
All of this happened very suddenly. After leaving, Li Shuwang couldn't believe that everything would go so smoothly. While speeding up, he asked again and again: "Brother Xu, are you the only one here?"
"There are also He Fangzhao, Zhang Shuyuan, Li Zhen, Pan Tuo and Liu Shanggu."
"Where are they?"
"We encountered trouble on the road and got separated on the snow-capped mountains. It doesn't matter, as long as the lady is safe, everything is fine. I believe they will soon investigate the news that the lady is safe, and when the time comes, they will naturally go back."
"That's good." Li Shuwang smiled and nodded, looking back at the camp, "Bai...how is he doing, Doctor Bai?"
"Um..." Xu Changtian hesitated and thought for a while, "Doctor Bai is fine. He has probably returned to Mang County."
"Okay...everyone is fine..." Li Shuwang felt relieved and looked into the distance, returning home like an arrow, and would never miss him again.
…
It was late at night, and the tribal carnival continued.
Bai Song thought of the Turkic army coming from the snowy mountains, and didn't know what Badu's plan was, so he didn't mention it for a long time.
Bai Song thought, maybe this young patriarch doesn't want danger to disturb tonight's carnival, right?
The young girl guarding Bai Song at the door left before, suddenly opened the door curtain, and came in with two equally young Turkic girls, carrying a steaming wooden bathtub, and then placed it in front of Bai Song.
The Turkic girl chirped something to Bai Song, but Bai Song didn't understand a word.
Bai Song pointed to the basin and asked tentatively: "You want me to take a bath?"
The Turkic girl nodded repeatedly and smiled at Bai Song. Her face was as sweet as honey.
Looking at the clear hot water in the bathtub, Bai Song felt itchy all over.
He hadn't taken a shower in an unknown amount of time, and he was probably wet enough to rub glutinous rice balls into his body.
Being able to take a hot bath at this time is so comfortable that it kills me to think about it.
Bai Song nodded and waved to the girls: "Okay, you all can go out."
Bai Song thought to himself, even if you can't understand the words, there should be no problem with waving you out, right?
Unexpectedly, the three girls in the room didn't care, and gathered around him with smiles. They took off their belts, shoes, and hairbands with their hands in unison.
These three girls moved so skillfully that Bai Song had no time to react. As soon as he held down the belt, his hair and shoes had already been untied.
"You...what are you doing? I can do it myself."
The three girls still ignored him, but moved closer, their smiles were a bit flattering, and their hands were quite strong.
Bai Song tried his best to keep his pants, but he couldn't keep his clothes.
The top was quickly taken off.
"What's this?" Bai Song felt a little bad and was a little angry. Just as he was about to push a few people away, Badu's voice came from outside: "This is part of the thank you ceremony."
The door curtain opened and Badu came in alone.
The three girls quickly bowed their heads and knelt down. Badu only had Bai Song in his eyes. His bright eyes did not show the coldness and arrogance in front of the tribe, but showed a deep love. He first stretched out his hand to test the water temperature, and then came to Bai Song. , said softly: "This is the highest courtesy of the Aji tribe. This is the most beautiful girl of our Aji tribe. In order to thank the benefactor who saved the patriarch, they let you choose. As long as you like, all the girls here can do it for you." You give everything.”
