Nahan Oren already had a scale in his heart, and asking about the quality of the white jade was just for the final confirmation.
So that night, the personal soldiers sent to Chaha Khan's territory had surrounded Anger and his biological mother, Chaha Khan's wife, and were just waiting for Nahan Oren's order to catch them red-handed.
After getting Bai Yuzhi's answer, Nahan Oren immediately sent someone to pass on the message to his personal guards, ordering them to search Anger's residence, and also attached the silver needle found on Zhenzhubai's body.
Nahan Orun's personal guards were equivalent to the Jin Dynasty's Jinyiwei, and they could ignore the authority and status of anyone except Nahan Orun. What's more, Chahe Khan himself was trapped in Nahan Orun's territory, and no one dared to resist the Khan's personal guards.
Ignoring Unger's sharp screams and insults, the guards broke open the tent and entered. After searching for a few times, they found nearly a hundred needles exactly the same as the silver needle from the purse under Unger's bed.
Unger was taken away just like that, and no matter how the queen tried to stop him, it was of no use.
So when Bai Yuzhi woke up early the next morning, Songli told her.
"Yanshi, the Great Khan has captured Prince Unger. Chaxie Khan, Sager, and Prince Unger are all in the council hall awaiting their fate."
Although it is called a meeting hall, it is actually more like a clan temple in the Central Plains sense. It is mainly used to offer plaques to the direct descendants of the Nahan Oren faction and discuss clan affairs.
In this case, Unger is indeed a relative of Nahan Oren, and it is normal to treat him in the council hall.
"The Khan wants me to go too?"
Bai Yuzhi was slowly and leisurely being helped by Songli to wash and change clothes. She had already made a preliminary judgment on the outcome of today's trial and was certainly not in a hurry.
Song Li replied, "Yes, the old ancestor has also heard the news now. I just saw Aunt Yan Jin rushing over."
Bai Yuzhi paused, she had really forgotten about this matter. The old ancestor did hate that Sager was on her side, but Anger was also her legitimate grandson. Would she make things worse?
"Let's go now."
The meeting hall was far away, and since Bai Yuzhi was pregnant, Nahan Olun was certainly worried about her riding a horse, so he ordered someone to make a sedan chair for her overnight. When Bai Yuzhi got on it, she actually remembered the imperial sedan chair she had ridden in the previous world for a long time.
Sure enough, that one is more comfortable.
But this is not bad now, it’s easier than riding a horse.
Bai Yuzhi didn't want to admit that she was lazy, so she put the blame on the unborn baby in her belly. She said to Song Li calmly, "I feel lazy since I got pregnant with this baby. I hope the baby I give birth to will not like to move."
Of course it's nonsense.
But Song Li was not happy and stamped her feet: "Oh, Yan Shi! How can you say that to the young master? He can hear it in his stomach and will be unhappy!"
Bai Yuzhi curled her lips and said, "I'm just joking. This is her own child, of course she knows he's not a lazy one."
The bearers of the sedan chair were all personal soldiers carefully selected by Nahan Oren. They were afraid that something might happen to Bai Yuzhi in the next two steps, and he was very worried.
She walked all the way to the council hall. None of the guards outside dared to stop her, so she walked in smoothly.
As soon as she entered, she saw Anger and Sagle kneeling on the ground. Chahai Khan looked furious. The old ancestor was also there. When she saw the white jade, her cloudy eyes lit up.
When Nahan Oren saw Bai Yuzhi coming in, his cold expression softened a lot. He personally helped her sit next to the ancestor.
No one cared about the two princes kneeling on the ground, and no one paid any attention to the incompetent and furious Chaxie Khan. The old ancestor and Nahan Oren's eyes never left Bai Yuzhi.
The old ancestor grabbed her hand when Bai Yuzhi sat down, and was particularly kind and amiable: "Laojiu, how are you?"
Now the news that Bai Yuzhi is pregnant has spread throughout the grassland. The old ancestor was worried and excited last night, and his old bones seemed to have become younger.
"In reply to the old ancestor, I am feeling much better now. I don't know why, but I was a little weak yesterday, but I feel much better when I woke up this morning."
Nahan Olun and the ancestor looked at each other. The news was told by Nahan Olun himself in the ancestor's tent. Naturally, he did not ignore the words of the great witch. Thinking that the offspring in the white jade belly was connected to her pulse, the two of them looked visibly happy.
"Good, good, good," the old ancestor gently patted the back of her hand, which was as delicate as white jade. "You have a really good child. You can rest assured and take care of the pregnancy. You don't need to worry about any other troubles. The Khan will solve them for you."
These words were suggestive. She glanced coldly at the two grandchildren kneeling on the ground, with whom she was not close, and snorted with laughter.
In fact, it would be a lie to say that the old ancestor had no feelings for her grandson. However, because of Nahan Oren, she had always disliked Sagle, and she also had some subtle feelings towards Unger, especially since Unger always pretended after he grew up. How could the old ancestor not see that he was weird?
Now there is a conflict between Unger and the child in Bai Yuzhi's belly. At this critical moment of choosing between the two, the ancestor chose Bai Yuzhi without weighing the pros and cons.
In this respect, our ancestors were actually very similar to Nahan Oren. They both preferred children with more "talents". Even if they themselves were not purely good, they still could not tolerate individuals who disobeyed the group or were useless to the group.
Unger's value is far less than the child in the white jade belly, at least in the eyes of the ancestors and Nahan Oren.
"Unger, do you have anything else to say?"
Nahan Oren put pressure on him. No matter how vicious Unger was by nature, he could not help feeling fear and pressure. Nahan Oren meant authority to him that could never be shaken.
Unger finally felt scared. He trembled and tried to argue: "No, it's not me!"
Chaha Khan also protected Anger and repeatedly scolded Nahan Oren for not showing any respect for blood relationship.
"...If I had known you would do this to Unger today, why would I have given up the Khanship?!"
Bai Yuzhi thought to himself, how shameless! This is not the way to flatter yourself, and he even gave it to someone else. If it weren't for the fact that this man was Nahan Oren's brother from the same mother, the grass on his grave would be who knows how many meters high now.
Nahan Oren ignored Chachou's shameless words and threw the small bag of silver needles he had searched from Unger's tent at Unger's face. He was born with supernatural powers, and with this throw, the silver needles inside directly cut through the cloth bag, leaving bloody marks on Unger's face.
"If you admit it now, I can still spare your life."
