Ling Ruo didn't like talking to him. She had only spoken to him on her fingers during the whole journey, but for some reason, in the afterglow of the sunset, she actually had the desire to speak, "No matter how beautiful the sunset is, it's just a flash in the pan."
, and then there is a long period of darkness until the morning sun rises. So in comparison, I prefer the beauty of the morning sun."
Galdan looked at the sunset with only half left in the distance, and chuckled: "If there is no sunset to set it off, how can the beauty of the rising sun be reflected? Isn't there a poem in your Central Plains called 'The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it's almost dusk' to see the beauty of the sunset.
, undesirable
Generation. But it’s no wonder you don’t like it. After all, the palace is surrounded by walls and the line of sight is blocked within the walls. You can’t enjoy the beautiful scenery as unscrupulously as you do now. So, speaking of which, you should thank me.
That’s it.”
"But I don't want to come here at all." After saying that, Ling Ruo put down the curtain and ignored him. At this time, Ping'er said excitedly: "Madam, just now I heard someone calling me 'King Khan'. This King Khan
What is it, is it the prince?"
"King Khan is not a prince, but the king of Zhungar, just like the emperor of our Qing Dynasty." Ling Ruo's explanation made Ping'er look excited. She never thought that the man who bought her would be like this.
Although he is not the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, his prominent status is still enough to make people
She was stunned. In this vast land, he was the king and the master of everyone. I really envied my wife for being able to marry such an amazing man. But there was one thing she didn't understand. Why did he talk about my wife?
, it seems that Madam used to live in the palace, which is really strange.
After driving for another hour, we finally arrived at the royal tent where Galdan lived. Zhungar did not build houses everywhere like the Qing Dynasty. As nomadic people, they all lived in felt tents.
The one where Dan lived was called the King's Tent, which was the largest and most gorgeous.
After the carriage stopped, Ping'er helped Ling Ruo get out of the carriage. It was already dark, but there were lights or torches everywhere, making it quite bright.
Galdan no longer knew where he had gone, but Batu was waiting there. Seeing Ling Ruo get off the carriage, he said: "Madam, please follow me to the tent to rest."
Under Batu's guidance, Ping'er helped Ling Ruo to rest in a felt tent not far from the king's tent. Although it was not as big as the king's tent, it was clean and comfortable. "Madam, rest first, I'll go pick it up."
Bring some food."
Batu moved very quickly, and after a while he brought in food, but it was all beef and mutton, and a cup of goat's milk. Batu seemed to have something to do, so he hurriedly put down his things and went out.
Looking at the meat on the table, Ling Ruo felt a wave of nausea in her chest. She didn't even move her chopsticks, she just took the cup of goat's milk and drank it slowly. This time, her reaction to the joy was getting bigger and bigger.
These kind of things are simply unpalatable and will be spit out even if they are forced to be eaten. However, the things Batu brought were all meat.
Seeing that Ling Ruo had not moved her chopsticks, Ping'er, whose stomach was growling with hunger, whispered: "Madam, don't you like eating these?"
"I don't have much appetite." As he said this, he saw Ping'er staring at the meat on the table. Remembering that Ping'er hadn't eaten anything yet, he said, "If you want to eat it, just take it and eat it."
Although Ping'er was hired by Galdan to monitor him, she was quite diligent in her work these days, and Ling Ruo felt pity for her life experience, so she didn't treat her lightly.
"Thank you, madam." Ping'er was indeed hungry. As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately took a plate of meat and ate it until she was full. Then she saw that Ling Ruo had never eaten anything except goat's milk. Regarding things, Zhudao said: "How about I go ask if there is anything else to eat?"
Just as Ling Ruo was about to nod, the curtain was suddenly opened, and a tall woman in green clothes with bright features walked in, followed by several maids behind her.
As soon as the woman in green came in, she looked at Ling Ruo unceremoniously, with a look of jealousy in her eyes. After a while, she sneered and said: "I heard that King Khan specially brought a woman back from the Qing Dynasty. I thought she was some stunning beauty." As for the beauty, it seems like this now, and she doesn’t look young at all, which is really disappointing. I really don’t know what the King of Khan likes about her."
One of the maids flattered her and said, "I think King Khan rarely saw Qing women and thought they were new, so he brought her back. If we really want to compare her, how can she be as good as your master? And I don't know how old she is." How young.”
Listening to the green-clothed woman speaking unceremoniously about herself, Ling Ruo frowned and said, "Who are you?"
The woman in green played with her disdain, but the maid said: "My master is the most beloved green concubine of the Khan, why don't you kneel down and salute."
This green concubine's arrogance made Ling Ruo very unhappy. She did not stand up and said: "I am not a slave, why should I kneel down and salute you?"
Ling Ruo's words made Concubine Lu unhappy, and she said bitterly: "Humph, you are indeed a wild girl who doesn't know where she came from. She doesn't even know the most basic etiquette. Even if you are not a slave, why don't you still treat me as a concubine? Are you going to kneel down?" Seeing that Ling Ruo was still sitting there, he said angrily: "Didn't you hear what I said to you? Why don't you kneel down quickly?"
Seeing the menacing look of the green concubine, Ping'er panicked and said, "Madam, what...what should I do?"
Ling Ruo patted Ping'er's hand and told her not to worry. Then she raised her head and said, "When Galdan brought me here, he didn't tell me to salute anyone. If you insist on me saluting, just let Galdan do it." Call him and let him speak with his own lips."
Her words made Concubine Lu stunned for a while. After a while, she pointed at her and said tremblingly: "You are so brave. You dare to call King Khan by his name. You are so arrogant. See if I don't teach you a lesson today!"
Seeing her rushing over, Ping'er quickly said: "Madam, be careful."
Ling Ruo was about to speak when Galdan's voice suddenly sounded in everyone's ears, "Green Lake, who are you trying to teach a lesson to?"
This voice made Luhu Shengsheng stop in his tracks. He looked back and saw Galdan appearing at the door. He quickly went up to meet him and said softly: "I have seen King Khan."
Galdan chuckled and said: "As soon as I came back, I heard you say you wanted to teach people a lesson. What happened?"
Green Lake's eyes flashed and he smiled softly: "You have to ask King Khan about this. I heard that King Khan brought a beautiful woman back from the Central Plains, so I came over to have a look out of curiosity. Unexpectedly, she spoke very rudely. And he also called King Khan by his name. This is a treasonous crime. It is fine for me to hear it alone, but if others hear it, the trouble will be big, so I want to teach her a lesson so that in the future Don't say anything you shouldn't say, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. After all, from now on, I and I will get along as sisters, and I don't want anything to happen to her. By the way, King Khan, I don't know her name yet. What's the name?"
