Chapter 51 He Xiuzou saw Tushetu Khan and others also came down from the high...
I saw Tushetu Khan and others coming down from the platform and coming over here.
Mu Xue hurriedly said, "Okay, let me go."
A pair of phoenix eyes looked at her with a smile: "Okay."
Although she agreed, Dorji's hand deliberately pushed her up. Then the princess punched her again, and then she put her down with a smile.
Landing steadily, Mu Xue took the opportunity to step on his boots as a form of revenge.
Then she straightened her face and returned to her usual dignified appearance.
Tushetu Khan and others came closer with smiles on their faces.
"Good boy, you won beautifully! You are worthy of being my grandson." Tushetu Khan ordered his attendants, "Go and get the ruby and gold necklace and give it to the young prince."
It must have been prepared in advance and was delivered quickly.
Mu Xue was also curious about what Tushetu Khan's "treasures" would look like. When the attendants took the gems out of the brocade, the sunlight shone on them, and they were dazzling.
What a beautiful ruby, its color is as bright as blood. There is an extremely large ruby in the middle, and two slightly smaller ones on both sides. It is said to be small, but this small one can be called a rare treasure no matter where you take it!
Three rubies, connected by a circle of gold beads. The craftsmanship is not complicated, but it is dazzling and extremely luxurious.
Dorji thanked Tushetu Khan and took the ruby necklace with both hands.
He will look good in this red robe, Mu Xue was thinking, when suddenly her neck felt heavy and her eyes flashed by the light reflected from the ruby.
Dorji actually just gave this ruby necklace to her and let her wear it?
Mu Xue was so shocked that she held the largest ruby in her hand, covering most of her palm.
She raised her eyes to look at Dorji, only to see that he looked as if it was a matter of course.
"It looks really good on the princess, Grandfather, don't you think?"
Tushetu Khan smiled and said, "That's good. The treasures you won should be presented to the princess."
Without knowing it, Muxue watched a horse race and won a heavy ruby necklace.
There were other competitions to come, so Mu Xue had no interest in watching them. She followed Dorji back to his tent.
"This is a gift from your grandfather. You should keep it. It's not good to give it to me."
"There's nothing wrong with it." Dorji squatted down slightly, picked up Qiuqiu who was running towards them happily, and said without question. "What's mine is yours."
He stroked the puppy's head as he walked towards the inner room.
Mu Xue didn't doubt him and just followed him forward: "If you give it to me, I will really accept it."
Just as the Fourth Prince said, it's even more strange if you keep refusing.
"Of course I should accept it. I feel happier seeing the princess wearing it than if I wore it myself." Dorji stepped into the compartment outside the bedroom and gently placed the puppy on the soft cushion.
Qiuqiu returned to the nest, turned over, and exposed his pink belly. Muxue squatted unconsciously and reached out to touch the puppy's belly, which was so soft.
The ruby necklace around her neck also fell down. Qiuqiu saw it, tilted her head, and stretched out her front paws forward to touch the shiny thing.
"I can't give this to you to play with." Mu Xue held down the ruby, took off the necklace and handed it to Rong'er.
Rong'er carefully put away the ruby necklace, stepped back from the curtain, and asked the maid to get a wooden box to put it in.
Behind the curtain, Mu Xue teased Qiuqiu and said, "But today was really too risky. When that person rolled down, I was afraid that you—"
Having said this, she stopped talking, not wanting to let this man show off.
But unfortunately, Dorji refused to let it go. He sat down on the carpet, put his hand on his chin, and said with a smile: "Are you afraid that something will happen to me?"
Muxue didn't answer, but just played with Qiuqiu.
"The princess is worried because she has me in her heart." Dorji's firm voice rang in his ears.
Mu Xue pursed her lips, straightened up and called the puppy: "Be good, let's come over here——"
She stood up and tried to move, but the hem of her purple gauze dress was pulled. Turning back, she saw that it was Dorji who was holding the hem of her skirt.
He looked at her with a burning gaze, "I am also very good, Princess, have you forgotten something?"
Come on, the debt collector is here, Mu Xue thought.
But when she saw the heroic young man holding her skirt, she couldn't help but smile.
What to do? She is willing to pay off this debt.
Muxue looked outside and could vaguely see the maids' figures outside the gauze curtain.
Isn't it a bit strange to ask them to retreat for no reason at this time?
She lowered her voice and said, "Then close your eyes, don't move, and don't make any sound."
"Yes, sir."
Dorji sat cross-legged and closed his eyes. It was the standard meditation posture of a monk, and Muxue laughed silently again.
With a smile and a little curiosity, Muxue slowly approached.
Her shadow touched him before anyone else, casting a shadow on his thick eyelashes.
In the distance, he could hear some cheers from outside the tent, buzzing and indistinct. The only thing that became more and more distinct was the sound of Mu Xue's heartbeat and his heartbeat, thump, thump, thump, intertwined together.
She stared at his thin lips for a while, within earshot of her breathing. Not knowing how to start, she thought for a moment and then kissed his tall nose.
Dorji's eyelashes trembled slightly, but he still sat in meditation in the same place without any movement.
This made Mu Xue feel a little relieved, but she also wanted to tease him and deliberately kissed his eyes.
She liked his amber eyes, especially when he looked at her with those wet eyes, as if his heart and eyes were filled with only one person.
Dorji still had his eyes closed and did not move.
Mu Xue was a little embarrassed. If her nose got close to his, would it bump into his nose?
After staring at his face for a while, she tilted her head slightly, slowly approached, tentatively moved closer, caught a glimpse of his glimpse, and then slightly distanced herself from him.
After making sure that her nose wouldn't be bumped, she moved closer and kissed the corner of his lips.
Warm?, hotter than hers.
After two small kisses, she wanted to step back, "Okay——"
Before he finished speaking, Dorji suddenly opened his eyes.
"Me? You're really driving me crazy."
The next moment, she was held down, with no way to retreat, and Dorji's aura surged over her like an overwhelming force.
It was a long and lingering kiss until the maid's hesitant voice came from outside: "Little Prince, um, we'd like to invite you to the award ceremony."
He finally let her go, his voice hoarse: "That's good."
He stood up: "You... rest here for a while."
Then, without even daring to look at her, he walked outside and ordered, "Get some water. I need to wash up."
The puppy lost his patience and barked twice when he saw a person leaving, protesting and trying to regain his attention.
Muxue took a deep breath, held Qiuqiu in her arms, and turned her back.
After rubbing the dog's head for a long time, it finally calmed down.
The night sky over the grassland was filled with stars, a bonfire was lit, and the cleaned black-headed sheep was tied to a piece of wood. Oil beads dripped down the sheep's back and fell on the charcoal fire, crackling and emitting smoke.
Wine was served and a banquet was held, with the three Khans of Mobei gathered together. It was truly a grand feast.
The eunuchs in Muxue's kitchen also followed her wishes and prepared various palace delicacies, such as milk cakes, cheese, and sachima, which were served on the dining tables of the khans one by one.
Chechen Khan held kumis in his hand and walked towards the seats of Dorji and Muxue.
"It is fortunate that the young prince is an excellent rider today, otherwise my son's life would be in danger."
It turned out that the green-robed boy who fell in front of the horse of Dorji was actually the son of the Chechen Khan. At that time, his heart was in his throat! If the horse had stepped on him, would he still be alive? Fortunately, he escaped unharmed.
Dorji picked up his wine glass and said, "We are all good men from Mobei. We shouldn't risk our lives for horse racing. How is he now?"
"He broke his waist, but it's not serious. He is recovering now." Chechen Khan said, "This kid is very competitive. He braided his hair too quickly and messed up the horse. Fortunately, he survived."
Mu Xue said with concern: "I have a royal doctor with me. I will send someone to follow Khan back later. I also have some medicine brought from the palace in my warehouse. Maybe it can help."
"Then thank you for your grace, Princess."
Muxue's eyes slightly touched Dorji's, and she immediately looked away as if she was scalded by water.
She felt a little confused and was a little afraid to look at him.
It was just the right time for him to take advantage of the fact that the Chechen Khan's son was seeing a doctor and hide away for a while.
The next day was a cloudy day. Doctor Zhang and Zeng Qiuhua carried the medicine box and followed Mu Xue to the Chechen Khan's residence. After both of them saw the patient, Doctor Zhang wrote a prescription and Zeng Qiuhua reported back: "It's nothing serious, just a lot of abrasions that need to be changed in time. Take good care of yourself for three months and you should be able to recover."
The prescription contained both Mongolian and Chinese medicinal materials, neither of which was very hard to come by. After seeing the recipe, Chechen Khan decided to give the doctor some reward.
"I'll give you a horse as a reward. It's not convenient to drive the sheep here."
One horse is worth twelve sheep. Doctor Zhang and Zeng Qiuhua thanked them repeatedly.
Mu Xue chatted with Chechen Khan for a while and asked him to talk about the situation of their tribe. Their territory was located in the east, and the population was much smaller than that of Tushetu Khan's tribe. It was said that some of the furs they produced were very good.
"I do know some merchants," Mu Xue said, "We can send some of them to the Khan's territory to collect furs and sell them. When they are ready, it will be winter, and the price of these fur coats will be good. It will also help the people of the Chechen Khanate to have a good winter."
"That's great."
As they were talking, they suddenly heard an excited eunuch's voice outside: "Princess, there is a letter from the court!"
Mu Xue immediately stood up and said goodbye to Chechen Khan.
She mounted her horse and galloped back to the princess's tent.
After days of running around, the messenger sent by the court, with a scruffy beard, finally brought a secret box.
Mu Xue opened the secret box, eagerly opened the yellow silk bag, took out the letter, and her face lit up with joy.
Emperor Kangxi approved her request and granted her 400 hectares of rouge land along the Qingshui River in Guihua City.
"Has the people in Guihua City received this news?" Mu Xue asked the messenger.
"You should have received it. I came here from Zhangku Road, which took a long time. It will take 20 days for the news to arrive in Guihua City."
Then the village head and eunuch she left behind should have received the letter by now. Mu Xue thought to herself that she had left a message for them before she left, telling them that once they received the imperial edict, they could "recruit people to level the land". She didn't know what the situation was like now.
Just after the Nadam Festival, the merchants returned to Huacheng, so she could ask the Fan family to send her a message. She would drive this batch of sheep back, keep part of the silver to the village head eunuch, and let him recruit people, and exchange the other part for goods and sell them on the grassland.
After a few rounds of waiting, the trade route was opened up and her business was on the right track.
This matter involved many people, so Mu Xue summoned the chief secretary and staff to discuss and prepare a set of regulations.
Knowing that most of the sheep had already arrived at her pasture, Muxue decided to go to the sheepfold to take a look herself.
After the meeting was over, she escorted everyone out of the tent and took the opportunity to stretch her muscles.
But she saw Dorji with his arms folded, as if he had been waiting for her for a long time.
He looked at her with wet eyes: "Princess, why did you abandon me after having sex with me?"
