As the voice fell, a Wala nobleman walked out of the lighted tent. He was not tall, but had long hands and feet. He was very strong, with a full beard on his face, and he looked very majestic.
The man was wearing a thick robe and light soft boots. There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice. It seemed that he had already rested and was woken up.
This man's name was Boyan Timur, and he was Yexian's younger brother. He had been responsible for guarding Zhu Qizhen during the days he was imprisoned.
However, at this moment, Zhu Qizhen stood on tiptoe and shouted as if he had seen a savior.
"Timur, it's me, Emperor Ming, and I want to see your Grand Master!"
When the Nawala nobles heard this, their original half-asleep state suddenly disappeared. He took two steps forward, repelled the surrounding Wala soldiers, leaned down and saluted, and said.
"I've met the emperor. It's so late. What can you do? Boyan Timur is willing to help you."
Zhu Qizhen looked at the Chinese army tent with lights still on in the distance and said anxiously.
"I'll tell you the details later. I want to see you right away now!"
Boyan Timur frowned. This Ming Emperor has been very obedient since he was captured. I don't know what happened now to make him so anxious?
But this was not a big deal, so Boyan Timur thought for a while and said: "The emperor has orders, and Timur should obey your wishes."
After saying that, Boyan Timur wrapped his robe tightly and led Zhu Qizhen forward, and the dozen or so soldiers who were originally surrounding him also followed him.
Out of consideration for Zhu Qizhen's "security", his camp was not far from the Chinese army's large account book. In addition, Zhu Qizhen was anxious and kept urging, so it was less than half a cup of tea.
Soon, we arrived in front of Ye Xian's big tent.
"What? The grand master is not here?"
However, when Zhu Qizhen and others arrived in a hurry, they found that he was not in the tent at first.
Now Boyan Timur also felt that something was wrong. He did not think that there would be some secret military operation secretly carried out without telling him.
If there is no action, then what is the point of going there in person at this late night?
In front of Zhu Qizhen, Boyan Timur did not shy away and asked directly: "Where did the Grand Master go?"
The Wala soldiers guarding the tent did not hesitate, pointed to the southeast, and replied: "Xining came over just now, and then the grand master followed him out of the camp."
So Zhu Qizhen and his party continued to turn and headed southeast.
After a while, they saw a bonfire burning in an open space not far from the camp. There were about two to three hundred elite soldiers doing something unknown around the bonfire.
"The Grand Master is there!"
Boyan Timur's sharp eyes saw Ye Xian's accompanying guards at a glance, so he walked in the direction of Ye Xian with Zhu Qizhen without stopping.
When he got closer, Boyan Timur glanced at the situation in the field, but he was a little surprised.
In the wide open space, the grand master was sitting on the south side. Next to him was Xi Ning, who looked flattering.
There was a person kneeling beside the bonfire. His bun was broken up and his face was covered. His whole body was covered with blood marks from whipping. His flying fish robe was ripped into tatters and his hands and feet were tied tightly. He looked very miserable.
.
When they arrived, they happened to see several Wala soldiers coming forward. Several of them were holding a horse in their hands, with ropes tied around them. Several others were holding the other ends of the ropes and pulling them towards the man's hands and feet.
Put on the suit.
"Yuan Bin!"
As soon as Boyan Timur finished looking at it, he heard a wailing sound coming from beside him.
Immediately afterwards, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty stumbled over and lay on top of the man, kicking and beating the soldiers with his hands and feet.
Ye Xian looks very similar to Boyan, both are not very tall, but both are strong, but the difference is that he has many gold and jade ornaments on his body, which makes him very imposing.
Seeing what happened in the field, he frowned first, waved his hand to signal the bewildered Wala soldiers to temporarily retreat, and then turned to Boyan Timur.
"Timur, my brother, why are you here?"
"I've met the Grand Master."
Boyan Timur stepped forward, leaned down and bowed, and then opened his mouth to explain.
"It's like this. I was resting in the camp just now. The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty came to me and said that he had something to talk to the Grand Master, so I brought him here."
After that, after taking a glance at the scene, he roughly understood in his mind that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty was here for the bound man named Yuan Bin.
He also nodded first, but did not blame Boyan Timur. Instead, he motioned for him to leave first.
Afterwards, he also got up first, came to the court, bowed slightly to Zhu Qizhen who was still leaning on Yuan Bin, saluted, and said.
"I've met the Emperor first. It's already so late. What alarmed you?"
Zhu Qizhen's blood had just surged, and he was only focused on protecting Yuan Bin and driving away the soldiers beside him. At this moment, his body was not only covered with dust, but also covered with blood from Yuan Bin's body, and he looked miserable.
Hearing this, Zhu Qizhen looked up at Ye Xian and said coldly.
"I should ask the Grand Master about this. Yuan Bin is my attendant. Why did the Grand Master punish him and kill him?"
Looking at the restless horses beside him, Zhu Qizhen couldn't help but feel a shudder in his heart.
With the momentum just now, if he had arrived a moment later, Yuan Bin would have been quartered by five horses.
With anger in his heart, Zhu Qizhen spoke with less care and more questioning.
This aggressive performance made Jing Ye feel a little unhappy.
Although he has been treating himself as a subordinate in front of Zhu Qizhen these days, it is just a matter of face.
To be honest, this Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was just his prisoner, and now he was speaking so harshly to him. Naturally, the man who had been in power for a long time was dissatisfied, so he immediately said:
"Your Majesty, I didn't mean to offend you, but this follower of yours has repeatedly instigated the relationship between you and Wala, and wants to sneak out of the camp and leak military information. I have no choice but to teach him a lesson. Please understand the general situation.
, don’t stop it.”
Ye Xian's tough attitude and condescending tone immediately made Zhu Qizhen sober up, and he immediately regretted his previous tone.
At this moment, Yuan Bin straightened up with difficulty, knocked his head on the ground, and said.
"Your Majesty...I...didn't run away...it was Xi Ning...he framed...me...the Emperor..."
He was stumbling over his words, and blood was pouring out of his mouth. It was obvious that his internal organs had been seriously injured.
Zhu Qizhen stretched out his hand, supported Yuan Bin steadily, took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and said.
"Grand Master, you heard that Yuan Bin did not want to leak military information. I can also testify that he did not sow discord between me and Wala. Please let him go."
In the current scene, Yuan Bin is kneeling on the ground, Zhu Qizhen is supporting him, half sitting on the ground, holding a small scimitar in his hand, and standing in front of them, showing his condescension.
In addition, Zhu Qizhen's words were not condescending, but they contained a hint of prayer, which made Ye Xian even more satisfied.
Yuan Bin was just a small character, and he didn't care whether he was killed or not, but as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Qizhen begged like this in front of him, and he enjoyed the scene very much.
But it was only for a moment, and he woke up first.
He doesn't need this kind of meaningless indulgence.
Anyway, killing Yuan Bin is just a matter of convenience. Now that the emperor of Ming Dynasty has personally interceded, he is willing to give this face.
However, just as he was about to speak, he heard Xi Ning say from the side.
"Grand Master, you must not believe Yuan Bin's villainy. If this person hadn't been instigated, how could the Emperor have repeatedly rejected Grand Master's good intention to get married?"
