Qiu Mi brought no joy; instead, she made the atmosphere inside the imperial tent even more oppressive. Even the Crown Prince was confined to the tent.
Several Mongol leaders involved in the Hesheli clan's conspiracy were also placed under house arrest. All those inside and outside the palace were brought by Yin Jishan, and the imperial tent and Yin's tent were basically protected by the new army.
Qingyan lay on the back of the soft couch, looking at the beautiful grassland scenery outside the tent where people came and went.
“Little Darling…” Yin Gang had just returned from the imperial tent when he saw Qing Yan lying on the soft couch, staring blankly out the window.
In the past few days, Kangxi has kept all his primary consorts inside their tents, and none of them have been allowed to come out.
"Fourth Prince, you're back?" Qingyan turned around and looked at Yin, feeling extremely bad.
When Qingyan arrived at the grasslands, he thought he would have a great time, but unexpectedly, one problem after another occurred, and even Kangxi had to deal with it rather rudely.
"Little darling, do you want to go out?" Yin pleaded with Kangxi, hoping to take Qingyan out for a stroll.
Emperor Kangxi granted his request directly. Consort Tong also mentioned that more people should be brought along to take Xiao Guai on a stroll, as Xiao Guai dislikes being restrained. Fei Yanggu and his two sons have been on duty since the incident and have had virtually no time to rest. If Qing Yan wants to go out, he will definitely be followed by a crowd.
"Yes, I want to!" Qingyan jumped up; she was practically going crazy.
Every morning, as soon as Qingyan stepped out, he would be watched by more than a dozen shadow guards. Even with his strong mental fortitude, he felt uneasy all over.
After several days of surveillance, Qingyan completely lost patience and simply stayed in the tent and refused to go out.
"Fourth Prince, if we go out, won't Father Emperor say something?" Qingyan asked, looking at Yin.
The atmosphere in the camp was very oppressive. Many guards from the Imperial Guard had been secretly taken away. Qingyan not only didn't say anything, but even the maids serving them were extra careful, for fear of being involved in this disaster.
"Go change your clothes quickly!" Yin took her hand and walked with her to the inner tent. Qingyan changed into a pink and blue Mongolian robe and boots of the same color. She took off her hair and braided it into a long braid that hung down her back.
"Let's go." Yin smiled. "You must be getting a little tired of staying here these past few days." Yin deliberately left Sushu and Erlu with the children, hoping that someone would take good care of them after they went out.
The moment Qingyan stepped out of the tent, she felt like she was going crazy from being cooped up, and finally she could breathe some fresh air.
Yay!
Finally able to leave the tent and walk around outside, she stretched deeply, feeling great to be able to go out.
"Happy now?" Yin put his finger to his lips and whistled a bright whistle, and Mo Yan ran over immediately.
Looking at the black inkstone in front of her, her mood gradually improved.
"Yes, Mo Yan was brought here too?" Qing Yan took out some sugar from her purse and fed it to Mo Yan.
At the mansion, Mo Yan had very little activity. Unless Yin went to court, he would often take Mo Yan out for a stroll. Otherwise, Qing Yan would ride for an hour at the horse farm.
"Of course, since you like riding the inkstone, I brought it with me." Yin smiled and patted Qingyan's little head.
She smiled and was helped onto the horse by Yin. Yin then led Qingyan to roam the grassland.
Once outside the camp gate, Qingyan leaned against him, her eyes half-closed, listening to the whistling wind. Her agitated mood began to improve.
"Sisi, how about you come out for a stroll every day?" Qingyan made the request directly. Yingenjueluo Shi also stopped coming out of the tent to visit other people's homes, which made Qingyan feel very bored staying in the tent.
“Okay!” he promised.
He wrapped her tightly in his arms and leaned down to kiss her cheek.
Instantly, her face turned red. There were quite a few servants following behind them, and he became so unrestrained.
"Fourth!" Qingyan was getting a little angry, hoping that Yin would behave himself.
When you're on someone else's turf, Prince Yin should rein in his temper and not vent his anger like a prince at will.
The news of Kangxi's harsh suppression of the Mongol leaders spread like wildfire in the camp. She looked at the herds of horses in the distance and was momentarily stunned.
"Sisi, do you see those horses being raised by someone?" Qingyan asked, somewhat puzzled.
This place is very close to the camp, so it's unlikely that a Mongol leader would keep his horses here.
"No way!" Yin looked into the distance, took out binoculars from his purse, and saw that the herd of horses should be a wild herd.
etc!
Qingyan was taken aback. There was actually a herd of wild horses here?
"Wild horse herd... Sisi, are these horses without owners?" Qingyan wanted to ask if they could all be stored in her spatial storage.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yin leaned close to her ear and asked, "Are you sure you want to take them all in?"
Qingyan nodded. She wanted these wild horses; ideally, these warhorses would improve the combat readiness of Yin's Xiangbai Banner.
“Little darling, we can get extra Xiangbaiqi horses, but these are the best Mongolian warhorses. We’ve seen them, and the Mongolian leaders should have seen them too. If we lose them all, it will be a big problem!” Yin was worried that Little darling’s actions were too outrageous and might leave him with a handle to use against him.
"They'll be targeted?!" Qingyan was confused. Weren't these animals unowned?
Yin sighed; the little girl was still too stubborn.
“Little darling, although these warhorses are unowned, they might be coveted by some. Those leaders might very well want to offer these warhorses to the Qing Dynasty.” Yin thought of Kangxi and couldn’t help but feel a headache. If his father knew that these excellent warhorses had been taken away by Qing Yan with a wave of his hand, he would definitely ask questions.
Qingyan fell silent. Yin's concerns were valid. If not handled properly, it could really cause trouble for Yin and his family.
Family and Fourth Prince!
Qingyan sets her own bottom line, and if any one of them is violated, she will definitely feel heartbroken.
"Sisi, I won't take them all. Let's go and catch the best one," Qingyan whispered.
Don't the Mongols like to lasso wild horses?
Yin had never done these things before. She wanted to see if the Fourth Prince had the ability. Seeing those Mongol leaders constantly showing off in front of Kangxi, she thought that if the Fourth Prince succeeded, Kangxi would be in a better mood.
He understood her thoughts; this wild horse was not easy to tame. Even if you managed to lasso it, you still needed to tame it, and that required skill.
"Alright!" Yin was prepared to grant Qingyan's request.
Waaaaah!
Qingyan turned halfway around and looked at him with adoring eyes.
"Let's go!" Qingyan waved her little arms, and Yin took a lasso from the horse's saddlebag. The two of them then headed towards the herd of wild horses.
With a gentle throw, Yin startled the wild horses, which then scattered and galloped wildly.
"Then what should we do?" Qingyan asked Yin.
At this moment, he was intently watching his target horse, which was likely the alpha of the wild horse herd. (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please vote for it on Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
