After Mutie'er died, Qinggertai was furious. He mobilized 30,000 soldiers to go to Luhui Town again and take Chen Yun's life personally.
But whenever there was a troop movement here, Luo Rui would also gather his troops there. Both sides were highly alert to the other's unusual movements.
The Queen of Qinggertai knelt before the king's couch and advised: "The thoughts of the great and small uncles are unpredictable. We are the strongest in the tribe, but now we have lost eight or nine thousand people. We cannot afford to lose any more.
Your wounds have not fully healed. If you go into battle again, anything wrong will ruin all your ten years of hard work.
This revenge can always be avenged.”
After listening to the queen's words, Qinggertai finally withdrew the royal order after a long time.
Three months later, Aruna married Qinggertai as she wished. As Bater and his eldest son personally escorted the bride, Qinggertai met her halfway to show his respect.
The wedding was grand and lively, and Aruna was immersed in happiness. But the days after the wedding soon became dull... and cold.
Aruna rarely saw Qinggertai, but whenever she did, she couldn't help but cling to him. He was always cold and would walk away without saying a word.
Aruna wasn't annoyed. He was the Khan, so he must be busy. He always had an icy face; that was just his nature.
Once I saw Qinggertai chatting and laughing with the queen. It turned out that this was how he was with his wife. The queen straightened his collar and he then held her hand.
There was tenderness in his eyes. When he was with her, he was not an iceberg. He was relaxed, gentle and warm, like the warm sun in winter.
I’m so envious.
Aruna went to the border market, where border residents and businessmen from both countries conduct border transactions. It opens once every two months.
The two countries were at war, wars and conflicts of all sizes were constant, and people were dying every day. But here, businessmen from both countries and border residents were bargaining, browsing and buying goods in a peaceful atmosphere, as if the war did not exist.
Aruna wanted to buy a red fox fur coat for the queen, but when she arrived at this strange tribe, it was the queen who treated her best.
Qu Hongfu wanted to find a leather jacket with a white fox fur collar. If there was no ready-made one, good leather would be fine.
Women are so strange when buying things. Even if they have already thought about what they want to buy, they may end up buying something completely unrelated.
For example, now both of them have taken a fancy to a set of exotic clothes.
The headdress, bracelets, anklets and waist chain that came from Tianzhu, paired with the chiffon dress, Qu Hongfu felt that she would charm Luo Rui if she put them on.
If he could charm Luo Rui, he could get whatever he wanted in this border area.
Aruna likes this intricate style, and the colorful stones and small bells on it all capture her heart.
Aruna offered three times the price, but the woman opposite her only took out a white jade plate with a word on it, Xuanyuanwen, which Aruna did not recognize.
The Xuanyuan businessman honestly sold it to her at a fair price, and Aruna was furious.
Seeing the woman take the item and leave, he was furious and asked the businessman, "I offered three times the price but you still won't sell it to me. How do you do business?"
Anyone doing business on the border knows a bit of both sides' language. The man sighed and said, "That's General Luo's brand. Who can afford to offend him?"
Aruna returned to the camp angrily, and only when she saw the queen did she remember that she had gone to buy a red fox fur coat.
Seeing her angry look, the queen asked casually, "Who has offended the Pearl of the Grassland?"
Aruna told the story.
The queen was silent. General Luo was referring to Luo Rui? A woman who could get Luo Rui's brand had such low standards that she used General Luo's name to snatch a set of cheap clothes and jewelry for herself at a low price.
Is she greedy? If there is such a person around the Prince of Fuguo, then is the Prince of Fuguo greedy?
Or was it one of General Luo's servants, holding a sign and causing trouble?
"How is she dressed?" the Queen asked.
Aruna said, "Very good. Her clothes and jewelry are like those of a queen. She won't be afraid of being robbed when she goes out dressed like this, at the border."
The queen thought: "Then it's unlikely to be a servant. If he dares to go out in gorgeous clothes, he must be protected by a large number of secret guards."
The queen said to Aruna, "If you see this woman again, will you recognize her?"
Aruna nodded, "Of course. Even if the Queen hasn't seen her, you'll know it's her the first time you see her."
The queen smiled and said, "Very well, I will go with you to the market next time."
When Luo Rui first heard what Qu Hongfu said, he gave her a cold look: "How could you do such a thing?!"
But Qu Hongfu told her the price.
Luo Rui didn't expect that this kid Shen Yun was so valuable. Qu Hongfu said, "If the 8,000 people who participated in the last battle died together, this would be the number."
Qu Hongfu picked up the pen and wrote down another number.
Qu Hongfu said: "We are very stingy here, and we can only get a little bit of military rations and military pay by moving the accounts and making up a number of people to save. Although the money is not small, it is very troublesome.
How can such a huge amount of income be so easy to come by? Once we receive this huge sum of money, we will not do anything else. We can stop and no longer worry about it."
Rory remained silent.
Qu Hongfu knew that he was moved.
Qu Hongfu said: "When they joined the army, they were prepared to die. Their families also knew that they might die. But since they were going to die anyway, what did it matter?
If they die, just give Chen Yun some credit for their death and give these 8,000 people some extra compensation.
I'll be more generous and use some of the money we collected to give more pensions to Chen Yun and these eight thousand people."
Luo Rui asked, "Is it safe to collect the money and transfer it to the account?"
"Don't worry, it will definitely not be found out. And pay half first."
Luo Rui called Chen Yun over and gave the order himself: "Take those 8,000 men into Labagou. Hold off the enemy, and reinforcements will arrive."
Out of trust in the Duke of Fuguo, the highest-ranking general of the Northern Army, although the terrain and orders confused Chen Yun, the young Chen Yun still led 8,000 people into Labagou.
For these eight thousand people, these were two days of extreme pain, brutal slaughter, and bloody darkness.
It was an extremely comfortable and proud day for Qinggertai. He was watching from a high place and still felt unsatisfied when he saw Chen Yun being stabbed by four spears from the front and back.
He gave the order: "Before he dies, he will be torn into pieces by five horses!"
Chen Yun was torn into pieces alive.
These two days were ordinary days for Fuguogong Luo Rui and Qu Hongfu. They received the other half of the money when the 8,000 people entered Labagou.
During these two days, Luo Rui accompanied Qu Hongfu to eat barbecue, watch acrobatics, and buy a lot of good things.
