Wan Yanyan has successfully taken the throne, the overall situation of the grassland has been decided, Tang Ning's mission has been completed, and today is the day to set off.
Outside the Wuyan tribe.
Chen Guo's army had already dispersed two days ago. Only a few hundred elite soldiers were left to follow Tang Ning and Xiao Jue back this time.
Wan Yanyan's face was full of reluctance. She stood outside Wu Yan's department, looked at Tang Ning, and said loudly: "Don't forget our agreement!"
Xiao Jue rode up to Tang Ning and asked, "What's the agreement?"
Tang Ning ignored Xiao Jue and looked back at Wan Yan Yan, waving her hand. After a long while, she shook the reins of her horse. When she looked back again, Wu Yanbu had shrunk to a point at the end of her sight.
Outside Wu Yan's department, Wan Yanyan was still standing there. Even though the people in front of her had long since disappeared, she still did not look back.
Aina stood beside her and said: "Princess, the prince-in-law has left."
Wanyanyan looked at it for a while, then looked back, touched her belly, gritted her teeth and said: "What a cruel person, leaving me and my child here..."
Aina looked at her with a shocked expression on her face: "Child?"
A hint of shyness appeared on Wan Yanyan's face and she said, "We slept together last night."
Aina looked at her. It took a long time to recover from the shock. She pursed her lips and said, "I heard that giving birth is very painful."
Wan Yanyan looked at her slightly nervously and asked, "How much does it hurt?"
Aina said: "I heard that giving birth is the most painful thing in the world. It hurts more than a knife cutting on the body. Many women die from pain when giving birth..."
Wanyanyan couldn't help but shiver and asked in a trembling voice: "Does it hurt that much?"
"I don't know either." Aina looked at her and said, "Princess, just ask the women in the clan who have given birth to children."
Wanyanyan returned to the Wuyan Department with a heavy heart, and opened the curtain of a tent somewhere. She wanted to find someone to ask how painful it was to give birth, but she found that there were only a few girls in the tent, gathered together, and they were chattering.
say something.
Wanyanyan looked at them and asked, "Where is Aunt Amai?"
Several girls were startled, turned their heads and saw Wan Yanyan, and immediately exclaimed: "Khan!"
One girl looked the most flustered and hid something in her arms.
"What are you doing?" Wanyanyan looked at them, her eyes finally stopped on the girl, and asked: "Kuma, show me what you are hiding in your arms."
The girl named Kumar blushed with embarrassment, but she did not dare to disobey the Khan's order, so she could only hand over a thin book in her hand.
Wan Yanyan casually opened the book and saw that it was full of scenes of naked men and women entangled together, and her face turned red.
Although she knew something about these things, this was the first time she saw these scenes.
"But, Khan..." The girls blushed with embarrassment and were at a loss when they saw Wanyan Yan's body froze and an expression of disbelief on her face.
She pointed to a page in the picture album, looked at the girl, and asked: "Is this the only way to have a baby?"
The girl's face turned redder and she nodded slightly.
Wanyan Yan stamped her feet angrily and said, "Isn't it said that two people can have a baby if they sleep together?"
The girl had a puzzled expression on her face and asked, "Huh?"
Wan Yanyan ignored them and walked out of the tent angrily.
A girl seemed to have remembered something and whispered: "The book was taken away by the Khan..."
…
After leaving the grassland and entering Fengzhou City, Tang Ning breathed a long sigh of relief.
Even if Wan Yanyan now knows that giving birth to a child is not something that can be accomplished by two people lying on the same bed and sleeping, it is already too late.
Tang Ning was a little lucky that she grew up in the grassland. If she was like Lu Ya, he would probably face the same problem as Xiao Jue now.
When Tang Ning saw Lu Ya again, perhaps because the time was too short, her figure had not been greatly out of shape. It could be easily seen when they returned to the capital.
She was pregnant now and couldn't ride a horse, so she could only drive slowly behind. Xiao Jue of course wanted to accompany her, but Tang Ning didn't want to waste time behind, so he only rested for one night in Fengzhou, and then he changed horses with Lao Zheng.
, left Fengzhou and galloped all the way to the southwest.
From Pongju to Gyeonggi Province, you only need to cross a single pass, then pass through Gyeongju and Yeongju, and you can reach Beijing in half a month.
As for the good news from the northwest, it had been rushed eight hundred miles to the capital a few days ago, and it should have arrived in the next two days.
Capital.
Royal Palace.
Royal study room.
"Okay, okay!" Chen Huang held a piece of intelligence in his hand, stood up suddenly, and laughed: "He really didn't let me down, he really didn't let me down!"
A few months ago, Tang Ning was ordered to go to the northwest, with the name of going north to fight against the Sushen clan, but the secret mission was to help the fourth princess of Wanyan tribe become khan, complete the establishment of diplomatic relations between Chen State and the grassland, and discuss peace together.
War is temporary, but peace is lasting. The latter task is much more difficult than the former.
But he did it, and it only took a few months.
From then on, Chen State and the grassland could avoid war and coexist peacefully. If trade could be opened up, Chen State would also be able to gain huge benefits from it.
The great thing he accomplished this time has more than just this significance.
The greatest significance of this incident is that once Chen State no longer has to spend huge troops in the north, it will be able to use its hands to suppress the rebellion in the Western Regions.
Now that the South has been settled and the grasslands are seeking peace, it is difficult for the Western Regions to stir up any more troubles.
Chen Huang put down the secret letter and breathed a long sigh of relief. The stone that had been hanging in his heart for many days finally let go.
Just imagine, if during his reign, the people lived in peace and stability, how would it be recorded in the history books?
If the relationship between Chen State and the grassland can be like that between Chen State and Chu State, Zhao Zheng will complete the great achievements that none of the emperors of Chen State have accomplished...
Wei Jian walked forward with a smile and said: "I would like to congratulate Your Majesty, and I would like to congratulate Chen Guo..."
Emperor Chen suppressed the joy in his heart, walked to the palace, and murmured: "How should I reward him this time..."
…
The situation in the grassland changed drastically. The new Khan was extremely friendly to Chen Guo. He not only made a friendly contract between the two countries on non-aggression, but also opened trade routes for mutual benefit. From then on, for a long period of time,
Chen Guo could avoid fighting with the grassland peoples.
This kind of peace has been longed for by the people of Chen State for decades. It is so precious.
In the past few days, the entire capital was in a state of excitement because of this huge good news.
With this news, a certain name that had been silent in the capital for several months was once again pushed to the forefront.
Tang Ning, Generalissimo of the Northern Expedition.
To put down the rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River and stabilize the situation in the northwest, everything he did in the past year was earth-shattering and a major event that was beneficial to the national economy and the people's livelihood.
Especially in the northwest incident, he almost single-handedly reversed the situation in the grassland, changed the relationship between Chen State and the grassland people, and was able to ensure the stability of Chen State for at least ten years.
To its right...
As Tangning sat in the carriage, she could hear these rumors about him all the way from the city gate.
It is an exaggeration to say that he can reverse the situation by himself. The reversal of the grassland situation relied on Chen Guo's 10,000 heavy cavalry and the intimidation of hundreds of thousands of troops. Compared with them, he only did a few things.
Just a small job.
However, of course he would not jump off the carriage to discuss this with them. He traveled back to the capital day and night without even meeting Emperor Chen, for something more meaningful.
The carriage stopped in front of the Tang Mansion. Tang Ning jumped out of the carriage and waved to the shocked and speechless concierge, indicating that he should remain silent.
On the way from the door to the inner courtyard, he ignored the maidservants and servants who were standing there, picked up the running Qing'er and spun him around, and then couldn't wait to walk into the inner courtyard.
Xiao Ruxiaoyi was not seen, only Tang Yaoyao was seen standing in the courtyard.
Tangning walked over quietly and wanted to hug her from behind.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, Tang Yaoyao grabbed his wrist, and then a huge force came from his wrist. Tang Ning felt that the world was spinning, and after turning 360 degrees in the air, he landed heavily.
