In the room of the inn, Luntai and Qiyan and his son sat opposite each other.
Although Qi Yan acknowledged Lun Tai as his father, he was still a stranger to him.
Lun Tai looked at his son and had a thousand things to say, but he didn't know where to start.
"You are doing great work, is anyone bullying you?"
In the end, all the words turned into a somewhat powerless question.
"have!"
Qi Yan rubbed his nose.
"Who bullied you?"
When Luntai heard this, he immediately became unhappy.
Although his son is living under someone else's roof, he cannot let anyone bully him.
...
...
Qi Yan said angrily: “Shen Nianci!”
"ah?"
Lun Tai was stunned.
Shen Nianci?
Is it the little girl from the Shen family?
Could it be that this girl enjoys bullying Qi Yan to avenge her father and grandfather?
Qi Yan didn't notice the suspicious look from his father at all, and said angrily: "Shen Nianci bullies me all the time. When we were riding the train, she always cheated..."
As he spoke, Qi Yan began to enumerate Shen Nianci's "crimes".
What about playing tricks on him when riding on the train, always asking him to push the swing, laughing at him for being stupid when reciting, and putting rouge on his face...
Listening to Qi Yan's words, Lun Tai couldn't help but smile slightly.
What does he think he is!
So it seems that I took advantage of him while playing around.
"That's not what I'm talking about!"
Lun Tai interrupted Qi Yan in silence, "Dad is asking you, has anyone ever hit you, scolded you, or deliberately made things difficult for you?"
Qi Yan nodded: "Grandma Shen hit me before, it hurt..."
Luntai's face changed, and he asked in a stern face, "Why did she hit you? Where did she hit you?"
Is Madam Shen avenging her son and husband by abusing Qi Yan?
"When I didn't study hard, she would hit my palm..."
Qi Yan said, and stretched out his palm to complain: "Once, Shen Nianci and I scolded the teacher, and Grandma Shen beat our palms so hard that they hurt for a long time..."
“…”
Luntai's face was red again.
This... seems like he really deserves a fight!
Not to mention in Dagan, even in Beihuan, if you insult the teacher, you will be beaten.
It's just a slap on the palm, it's really nothing.
He still remembers that when he was as old as Qiyan, he was rude to his mentor and was not only severely beaten but also punished to feed his mentor's horses for half a year.
Afterwards, Luntai asked Qiyan many trivial matters about his life in Dagan.
Qi Yan also answered honestly.
After some questioning, Luntai couldn't help feeling ashamed.
It seems that what Jia Yao said is true.
I am judging others by my own standards.
From what Qi Yan said, he could never see Qi Yan being bullied or abused.
On the contrary, Qi Yan lived a good life in Dagan.
The only bad thing is probably that Qiyan was too deeply influenced by Da Gan's culture.
All he learned was the pedantic stuff of Dagan.
It seems very knowledgeable, but in fact, a lot of it is useless.
At least, it doesn't apply on the grassland.
By the time Qi Yan turned sixteen and returned to the grassland, all the things that Da Gan had taught him had probably been ingrained in his bones.
And he will fully agree with Da Gan's things.
Qiyan should have been the leader of the prairie, but he was trained to be a sheep.
He knew in his heart that this was the fundamental purpose of Yun Zheng making Qi Yan a hostage.
He wanted to teach Qiyan some rules of the survival of the fittest on the grassland, but he didn't know where to start.
“Knock, knock…”
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Your Highness, it's me."
Bu Du's voice sounded outside the door.
"Come in!"
Lun Tai opened his mouth, feeling a strong sense of powerlessness in his heart.
Soon, Bu Du pushed the door open and walked in.
"Where's the prince?"
Lun Tai asked Bu Du.
"The prince has left."
Bu Du replied: "The prince said that while we are doing great things, the little Chanyu will stay with us."
Luntai was slightly surprised. Before he could ask, Qiyan stood up and said anxiously, "I don't want to stay here. I want to go back. Send me back, send me back quickly..."
Suddenly, Qi Yan seemed like a different person.
He was polite before, but started to act like a spoiled brat in the blink of an eye.
It was as if Yun Zheng's departure took away all his sense of security.
Or maybe, in his heart, Yun Zheng was his relative, and Lun Tai and the others were just strangers.
"What are you going back for?"
Lun Tai frowned and suddenly raised his voice: "I am your father!"
"I don't care, I'm going back, I'm going back..."
Qi Yan shouted unreasonably.
Luntai slapped him hard on the face and raised his hand to hit him.
Budu saw this and rushed forward to stop Luntai, comforting him: "Your Highness, the little Chanyu hasn't been with you for a few years, so it's inevitable that he feels a little strange. It will be fine in a few days! If you hit him, the little Chanyu will be even more reluctant to stay with you..."
Not all are helpless.
Logically speaking, Qi Yan should be closer to them.
Unfortunately, Qi Yan was sent to Yun Zheng as a hostage when he was only five years old.
In the past few years when Qi Yan gradually began to grow up and understand things, he has been living with Yun Zheng and the others.
After all, Qi Yan is just a child.
How could he know so much about family and country?
With Budu's persuasion, Luntai finally suppressed the urge to slap him.
Budu persuaded Luntai to stop, and then whispered to Qiyan: "Little Chanyu, you play here for a while, and then we will take you to the street to buy delicious food, okay?"
Under the temptation of delicious food, Qi Yan finally calmed down a little.
After having Qi Yan taken outside to play, Bu Du pulled Lun Tai, who was still angry, to sit in the room.
"Your Highness, as the saying goes, a three-foot-thick ice doesn't form overnight. There's really no need for you to be angry with the Little Chanyu. He was sent to Shuobei as a hostage out of necessity..."
Although Bu Du tried to persuade Lun Tai patiently, he felt helpless in his heart.
"I know!"
Luntai took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. "I just can't bear to see him like this! How can he lead Beihuan in the future? It's good enough that he doesn't merge Beihuan with Dagan!"
Although they all knew that this day would inevitably come.
However, Luntai still didn't want his son to take the initiative to do this.
Passive integration and active incorporation are two different things.
Although this is a bit self-deceptive, they are more likely to accept it psychologically.
"It's pointless to think about this now."
Budu shook his head gently, "Guifang, Beimoduo, and Zhenhe have all been incorporated into Dagan. The reason why Beihuan has not been incorporated into Dagan is not because Yunzheng can't do it, but because he is thinking of his relationship with Princess Jiayao!"
Lun Tai was speechless.
"well……"
After a long time, Luntai let out a heavy sigh.
He also knew that the people of Beihuan would live a better life after being incorporated into Dagan.
He also understood that this day would come sooner than they expected.
However, they could only watch this day come.
They can't do anything, and they dare not do anything.
This feeling is indeed not pleasant.
Bu Du comforted Lun Tai for a while and then told him what Yun Zheng said.
After hearing what Budu said, Luntai couldn't help but feel secretly puzzled.
Military exercises?
What is Yun Zheng doing this for?
