"I guess he wants me to poison you, and this poison is extremely cruel."
This idea was also within his expectations. Most of those who followed him were young grassland warriors. Their fathers had fought in wars outside with King Yundan Khan and had deep feelings for him.
Once he died, the older generation would support King Yundan Khan to become king, and the younger generation would not find any evidence that King Yundan Khan was the murderer and would not suspect anything.
Without any soldiers, King Yundan Khan sat on the throne.
"I'll have my people check it out."
"Also, he said, it must be successful in three days."
Nastu thought for a moment and said, "Three days is enough. Then you can tell him that everything is going well."
Su Yumo turned sideways to face Nasutu, moved forward, and placed his hands on the sides of his face.
"Why would he send me undercover when he clearly sensed that you were suspicious of him?"
"Because he has no other options left, he won't let go of even the slightest hope. Maybe six years ago, he could have defeated me with force alone, but now, he knows he can't defeat me head-on, so he has to think of other ways."
After saying that, Stu felt a little hotter, and the fragrance that gave him a headache appeared again.
Frowning, he threw the blanket that was half covering himself over Su Yumo.
It seems that if you cover the source, the fragrance will not be released.
Su Yumo was so focused on his own problems that he didn't notice his actions.
"Then why didn't he send me to you with someone else? Wouldn't he be less suspicious that way? Like that guy who's strong and healthy and enjoys eating anything."
"You mean Abru?"
"So his name is Abreu. I was wondering if his name was Arubu or Abreu."
In the darkness, Su Yumo quietly reached out his little hand towards Nastu's ear.
Even though we are talking about a matter of life and death, it doesn't prevent me from touching him to enhance our relationship.
Other capture targets will go through fire and water for the host just by meeting him once.
The world has changed, so she has to be frugal and live frugally.
This time, Nastu did not dodge. He stretched his hand behind his head to his ear, held Su Yumo's wrist, placed it on his abdomen, and slipped his hand into the gap. Su Yumo was delighted.
Nastu said:
"He knows me. No matter who sent it, I would be suspicious. Since the result is the same, he doesn't need to spend time on it. Maybe I will overthink it and disrupt my plans."
"And, then..."
Nastu interrupted Su Yumo, "What did you eat tonight?"
Su Yumo's mind was full of various power struggles. She didn't understand the sudden words for a moment and was stunned for a moment. It was only when Stu turned his head to look at her that she reacted.
"In the evening? Pancakes for dinner." Su Yumo moved forward a little.
"Is this cake related to King Yundan Khan?"
Nasti turned his face away and closed his eyes.
"It's okay, you talk too much, go to sleep."
The letter that the man just sent him said that in addition to the people of King Yundan Khan in the team, he also secretly maintained an army. It was very mysterious, and no one knew how many there were, and no one knew where they were. Even that man could not find any trace of them, as if they did not exist at all.
He only learned about this today, but there was no time left and he couldn't make a more thorough plan.
No matter how perfect the plan is, it is nothing in the face of absolute force.
Rest well and wait for the final war.
Su Yumo's pupils trembled, and he suddenly thought of something. He glanced around, covered his mouth with his free hand, and moved closer to Nastu's ear.
"Could there be some important information in this cake?"
Nastu didn't respond for a long time, as if he was really asleep. Su Yumo turned around helplessly.
With a lot of questions in her mind and no one to answer them, she looked at the top of the tent, thinking over and over again, but still couldn't figure it out.
I wanted to adjust my sleeping position, but when I turned over, I found that my hand was still in Stu's hand.
Without even saying a word, he still wanted to hold her hand for nothing.
It's not that cheap.
Su Yumo pulled his hand out with all his strength, but there was no change, not even an inch.
Maybe she should ask the system for a powerful pill.
That day, Su Yumo twisted his arm and turned his back to Nastu, scolding him all night long.
☆
Three days seemed incredibly long to everyone involved.
Whenever there was a slight movement on the grassland, Su Yumo would connect it to King Yundan Khan and start making all kinds of associations.
On the surface, Nastu didn't seem to have changed much. He just ate as usual and slept as usual.
King Yundan Khan sat on his horse, gazing at the distant sky and tidying up his sparse hair.
The war horses neighed and the birds flew away.
Night will eventually come.
☆☆
The autumn nights are cold.
Darkness gradually enveloped the entire grassland, the green turned into dark blue, and a few stars in the sky shone dimly.
Su Yumo sat cross-legged on the blanket against the tent, with her eyes closed, listening carefully to the movements outside, and went over the key points that Stu had just told her twice in her mind.
Suddenly, the sound of heavy and light footsteps came from the front, getting closer and closer.
Su Yumo opened his eyes and rubbed the tent cloth in front of him rhythmically with his fingertips.
The footsteps followed his route and did not approach the tent. They were three meters away and moved towards the next tent.
☆☆☆
There were no candles lit in the tent. King Yundan Khan sat on the chair with his eyes closed, tapping the armrest with his index finger again and again, and his other hand tightly grasping the hilt of the knife on the table that had not yet been unsheathed.
Unease, excitement, anxiety, anticipation, all these emotions continued to ferment in his heart.
