"Wait a minute, that woman doesn't look like she's from the Western Regions," Yuwen Xian couldn't help but take another look at Qiu Yan's retreating figure.
You should know that their Chanyu (ruler) never paid any attention to women, yet now he was personally accompanying this woman to see their horse farm.
This woman is so lucky.
"Doesn't she look like it?" Huyan Xun's face twitched. "Isn't she the princess of the Western Regions?"
"But she looks like a woman from the Central Plains to me."
"Why is it that General Yuwen's eyesight has gotten worse after winning the battle?"
"This..." Yuwen Xian tried hard to recall Qiu Yan's face, but still shook his head.
“She is definitely not a princess from the Western Regions. Chanyu, if that King Lushi dares to deceive you, I will be the first to go and destroy him.”
"No, even if we wipe him out, he'll still need someone to keep him under control. I, the Chanyu, am too lazy to bother with that. The current situation is the best. Let's not talk about that anymore. General Yuwen has made another great contribution. Congratulations! Let's go have a drink!"
Huyan Xun placed a hand on Yuwen Xian's shoulder and went with him to his yurt.
Before leaving, Huyan Xun turned back to look at the herds of warhorses in the horse farm, and frowned.
How did his warriors become a bunch of useless trash today?
They couldn't even handle two people from the Central Plains, and one of them was a woman!
Ling Ba and Qin Susu had long been planning to escape the horse farm.
Seeing Qiu Yan and Vera leave together, they also rushed forward.
However, getting in is easy, but getting out is hard.
Ling Ba sighed, realizing that he had truly been tricked by Qin Susu today.
He had no desire to compete in horsemanship with these barbarian soldiers.
The barbarian soldiers were incredibly difficult to deal with; they wouldn't give up until they were defeated.
But Ling Ba and Qin Susu, on the contrary, refuse to admit defeat.
The equestrian competition, with fewer riders against more, continued, and Qiu Yan had already gone to the tent where Vera and the others were.
Unexpectedly
Inside the tent, everyone except Ap had vanished.
Qiu Yan found it strange, and so did Vera.
Vera was already feeling very strange on the way here.
Under normal circumstances, in a situation like that, these people would definitely be the first to rush out to protect themselves.
That's why he had such courage.
However, this time, Qiu Yan was the one protecting him, which made him feel a little awkward.
He asked Ap in his own language,
"Where are all our people?"
Apu looked bitter.
She shrugged, indicating that she felt helpless.
“They’ve all left, gone back to India. They took all our camels, money, and food with them.”
Afraid of upsetting Vera, Ap spoke very slowly.
I thought Vera would be very upset after hearing this, but to my surprise, his expression remained calm.
Vera's calm expression made it impossible to guess his feelings.
He looked at Qiu Yan's questioning gaze.
"Qiu Yan, they're all gone. Let them go. They suffered because of me."
Qiu Yan did not ask any further questions.
Vera's kind heart led him through many twists and turns on his journey.
Simply put, they're meddling too much.
Vera looked at Ap:
"If you want to leave, then leave."
Apu shook his head. "I won't leave. I want to follow my master. Wherever my master goes, I will go."
Vera smiled with relief, then sat cross-legged on the futon inside the tent, wanting to calm her restless heart.
Qiu Yan originally wanted to persuade Vera and Ap to leave first,
But now, Vera only had Ap by her side, and she swallowed back the words she wanted to say.
She told Vera that they would have dinner together later.
