Return of the Swallow

Lu Heng declined after hearing this: "I understand your good intentions and feel your sincerity, but after all, we are people of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If we become the chiefs of the Minuo tribe, doesn't it mean that the Minuo tribe has become the Great Zhou?" ? We are friends and brothers. I can’t do such a thing to the Minok tribe. We can be friends for generations and can support each other, but you two brothers are the masters of Minok. I believe in this decision, Your parents in heaven will also approve it.”

Everyone was very moved by these words.

Halbala and Chaganbala couldn't help but get wet when they thought of their parents who died tragically.

But now that they have made a decision, they cannot go back on it. This is both a matter of face and morality.

Qin Yining listened to their words slowly and didn't understand what they meant. If they spoke slower, she could still understand simple words and make guesses.

Lu Heng explained to Qin Yining. Qin Yining thought about it and agreed with Lu Heng's decision. After all, they are foreigners, and she has learned the lesson of the Blue Sky League. Now she does not dare to take over any organization at will because of the benefits it brings. At the same time, perhaps there is a greater crisis hidden behind it.

"Now is not the time to discuss this matter. What we want to think about is how to escape. Today there are already pursuers coming to search, which means that Siqin has been vacated. If there is another city-wide search, we are afraid It's not that easy to escape, and the Minuo tribe will also be implicated by then. Even more terrifying, if the Minuo tribe is targeted, the consequences will be disastrous."

Lu Heng also frowned and nodded: "That's what you said. The problem is that if you want to escape from the city, you will also face the pursuers. I'm afraid the road leading from here to the border between Dazhou and Tatar is inconvenient."

Qin Yining pursed her lips and whispered: "Are we going to enter the desert again?"

Lu Heng couldn't help but shuddered when he thought about the suffering he suffered along the way.

However, after careful analysis, if he really escaped from the city, with Si Qin's resourcefulness and Tianjizi's calculations, it would be impossible for him to leave no trace at all. They will definitely alert a large number of pursuers to search for them.

If you take the main road, you will easily be overtaken.

But if they go through the desert, if they are well prepared, they have a good chance of escaping.

The weather is getting colder, and walking in the desert is getting harder and harder. Their preparations need to be more comprehensive.

Lu Heng pursed his lips and discussed this decision with Chagan Bala and his brothers.

The two frowned upon hearing this.

But after carefully listening to Lu Heng's analysis, I felt that if they could leave the city, the desert could indeed help them escape pursuit.

"In this case, let's get ready. I will go out of the city tomorrow and quietly contact the tribesmen outside the city to ask if they are willing to migrate with us. Leaving the capital and arriving at the border, where there is a vast area and sparsely populated areas, you can always find Living space. To enter the desert, we must be fully prepared." Chagan Bala said.

Halbala frowned: "This is easy, but how can I take you out quietly?"

Qin Yining pursed her pale lips and said after a moment: "Tune the tiger away from the mountain."

Lu Heng smiled and nodded: "Heroes see the same thing."

Khan's funeral was grand, but also rough because of the suddenness of the incident.

Because the members of the Tatar royal family had already died when Anaz was still the female regent, and now there is not a single living person. In addition, Si's reputation for diligence, benevolence, justice and bravery spread far and wide, and the courtiers were divided. In favor of Si Qin ascending to the throne.

After a short preparation and a grand succession ceremony, the military power was in control and the people's will was almost irreconcilable--\u003e\u003e

It would take too much effort to rectify it, and the Tatar political power was firmly in the hands of Siqin.

At the beginning of Si Qin's practice, he changed his reign name to Jian'an. Because Si Qin's surname was Utkin, he was called "Utkin Khan". He also issued a proclamation, vowing to avenge Anari Khan, and ordered the whole country to hunt down and murder Anari Khan. murderer. He also issued a letter of credence to Dazhou, denounced the crime of assassinating Anari by the people of Dazhou, and threatened to pay with blood.

For a time, the hatred of the Tatar people was completely aroused. On the one hand, everyone vowed to take revenge for Ana Day. On the other hand, the people were very moved by Utkin Khan's benevolent government, and the people were united as never before. All the Tatars were praising Utkin Khan's wise and wise martial arts.

Amid the great momentum, that evening, Si Qin received a report from his men. They had discovered the whereabouts of Qin Yining and Lu Heng, and their location had been surrounded.

Hearing this, Si Qin immediately ordered: "Go and capture them alive. This Khan will have them imprisoned in order to sacrifice Anari Khan's spirit in heaven!"

"Yes!" His subordinate responded. He turned around and was about to leave when Siqin said, "Wait a minute, Ben Khan will go in person!"

Si Qin changed into a light robe and led the people straight to the location of the report. All the guards and followers secretly lamented the deep love between Si Qin and Anari Khan.

The place they arrived at was a remote courtyard in the south of the city. Siqin saw that his people were surrounding him and the courtyard was dark. Siqin sneered and rode forward, "Bring out the people inside."

"yes!"

Everyone rushed forward and rushed in with overwhelming force.

Soon, a woman's scream came from the house.

Not long after, under the moonlight reflecting the snow, two figures, one tall and one short, were pushed out.

Perhaps after a long period of wandering, the robes worn by the two of them could barely be seen to have been made of excellent brocade, but now they were in tatters and their hair was disheveled.

Si Qin said in Zhou dialect: "Second Master Lu, I originally thought that you were a close friend and that I trusted you so much. I didn't expect that you would be so disrespectful and would break your promise just for the sake of a woman. It really makes me sad. Disappointed."

"Lu Heng" lowered his head and was shaking a little.

Si Qin narrowed his eyes and immediately felt something was wrong.

He turned over and jumped off the horse, strode forward and grabbed "Qin Yining"'s hair, but what he saw was a woman's face covered with scars.

The woman's eyes were filled with hatred, and the dagger hidden in her sleeve immediately pierced her.

Si Qin was furious and immediately realized that he had been fooled, so he kicked the woman in the chest hard. Before the dagger could even cut through Si Qin's flesh, the bones in the woman's chest were dented by the kick. She was kicked two feet away, fell to the ground and vomited blood and died.

The tall "Si Qin" next to him was shaken all over and fell to the ground.

Si Qin grabbed his collar and lifted the man up, and found that he was an old man about fifty or sixty years old, and he was still blind in one eye.

"What a Minobu! Quick, send someone to guard the city gate immediately! Immediately!"

"As you command!"

The entourage went to deliver messages to the four city gates as if their buttocks were on fire.

But when they just arrived at the city gate, the guards guarding the city didn't notice anything unusual at all, and it was impossible to remember who was coming in and out today, so they had to guard the city more strictly from now on.

After hearing the report, Siqin immediately ordered: "Go to the Minuo tribe's garrison outside the city and capture them all to Ben Khan!"
