Chapter 787 Hearing Rumors
At dusk, under the setting sun, a man came to the outside of the Dangxiang camp.

Wan Yuwuyou was sitting on a rock by the river with his back to the Khan's tent. He heard the messenger say that someone wanted to see him and said that he had found a man of his and was sending him back. The man called himself "Yuan Wuyou".

Anyone who heard this would think that she was taking the initiative to show goodwill and made up an excuse to meet the Khan.

His heart was instantly excited and he couldn't wait to see her, but he was too shy to go.

He asked Mi Qinlin to bring the person in, and also reminded him to keep someone behind his back so that no one would see a woman entering the tent.

Mi Qinlin was stunned.
"Khan, you two are not ashamed. She is the ruler of Huaxu in Tangut, and she is also the Khan of the goddess who descended from the earth. It's not that you can't show off. Do you have to do it behind people's back?"

The young Khan waved his hands in anger when he heard this: "Nothing happened. What if someone sees and spreads gossip? Do as I ordered. Go now!"

Mi Qinlin had no choice but to run all the way to the door to greet him.

At that time, the young Queen Huaxu was wearing a brocade robe and armor with both civil and military sleeves. She was heroic and arrogant, yet quite friendly to her subjects.

She was especially polite to Mi Qinlin, who guided her.

Even when Lieutenant General Mi Qin questioned her, "Didn't you say you were going to send someone away? Why did you come alone? When you say send someone away, do you mean send yourself to the Khan?"

The queen was not angry, and explained in a friendly manner that she did not completely believe the man's identity, and that she had to verify it with the Dangxiang Khan first before bringing the person over. Otherwise, if he was an assassin, it would be difficult to harm him.

Her reasons were sufficient and well thought out, so Mi Qinlin said nothing more, nodded, and led the way for her.

When he brought her to the vicinity of the tent, Mi Qinlin was secretly wondering whether to take her into the tent or to the river.

After all, he was not sure where the Khan was. If he took her to the river and the Khan was not there, it would be considered as neglecting the distinguished guest and showing off his power to her. I am afraid that the two of them would not be able to ease the tension. If he took her to the yamen and the Khan was not there, then...

Bringing a young girl into the house might not necessarily spread and affect her reputation, but she might be suspicious and think that the Khan had some intentions with her. The venue and the atmosphere... What if the two of them couldn't help themselves? That was not what Mi Qinlin wanted to see.

Just as Mi Qinlin was struggling, a shadow came towards him.

He looked up and saw that it was his own Khan.

What was even more terrible was that the Khan had taken off his silver-white rhino leather armor and was now wearing a black coat with a red round-necked shirt underneath. His shoulders were quite thin and his body was frail.

How is this different from not wearing any clothes?!
But the Dangxiang Khan did not look at him. His deep blue eyes were fixed intently on the person next to him, with no room for anyone else.

Wan Yuwu saw the queen take off her armor and still look heroic in her military uniform, and naturally felt awe and admiration. Then he realized that he had long been on an equal footing with her, and he became tough again.

He suddenly became speechless in front of her, his lips slightly parted, but he didn't know how to start.

She spoke first, her words were gentle and friendly: "Gao Changgong said that he had dealt a heavy blow to the Dangxiang... Are you injured? I'm sorry for that."

"What's the matter with me?"

"Let Xinye go, and give me some face."

Upon hearing this, Mi Qinlin tilted his head in anger, glared fiercely at the female ruler wearing the civil and military sleeves, and then looked at his own Khan.

I thought: You know that? Women are the root of trouble! The root of trouble!
Wan Yu Wu Yu extended his hand to lead the way, "Let's talk inside the tent."

Mi Qinlin quickly said, "Your Majesty! Is this appropriate?"

The young Khan glanced at him and said coldly, "You guard the door."

Mi Qinlin: “…”

Mi Qinlin was in a very complicated mood at the moment. His Khan was going to be alone with a woman in the tent, and he was asked to guard the door! How was this different from his brother marrying a woman he hated, and he was asked to eavesdrop?

So the two of them went into the tent, and in front of the low wooden table, they each found a small stool and sat opposite each other, without distinction between host and guest, or between superiors and inferiors.

Yuan Wuyou spoke first: "Is there anyone named Brandy in the Bailan tribe you are allied with?"

The young Dangxiang Khan raised his eyebrows slightly, and his deep blue eyes suddenly lit up. "She is the seventh princess of Bailan. Have you met her?"

"That's right, I found it. She's waiting outside your garrison. Call her in later." She suddenly stood up and said, "I'll call her in."

When the queen stood up, the young Khan also stood up.

"Are you in a hurry? Are you leaving now?"

Seeing Wan Yuwu's frowning face and nervousness, Yuan Wuyou sat down and said, "It's not easy to see you, so let Brandy wait a little longer."

She then pulled her lips together and smiled, "Actually, I just heard some rumors outside, and I was afraid that if I stayed alone with you for too long, it would affect your reputation, and that people would spread lies about you."

The young Khan's heart jumped into his throat when he heard this. He raised his phoenix eyes in astonishment.
"You... heard everything? Do you believe it?"

The armored girl was helpless, her eyes narrowed slightly, and her tone was soothing.

"No, I know it must be a misunderstanding, or you've been bullied. You're not the sentimental type."

With just a few words, she dispelled Wan Yuwu's anxious heart and the bitterness in his heart.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and stared at her gloomily with his dark eyes.
"They say... you and I are like a gecko with its tail cut off. You are the tail that I cannot give up."

"how do I say this?"

"In the beginning, I was your tail, chasing you for survival in the Eternal Lane. Later, I went to Huaxu, and you became my tail. Now, I never want to break up with you."

After a pause, the young Khan stared at her deeply with his phoenix eyes.

"So, why are you here? You'd better not embarrass me too much."

Yuan Wuyou felt very uncomfortable listening to this.

"I'm not here to lobby, it's just... your uncle is missing, I messed up with good intentions, I don't know how it turned out like this... I thought I would be safe if I sent him away..."

Wan Yuwuyu shook his head, "I know you tried your best, it was the Zhou Kingdom that betrayed me, they never keep their word, young master...you can only wish you the best, either come back to seize power, or don't come back."

When the queen heard his words, her heart tightened.

"Wan Yu Wu Yu, stop it, what on earth do you want to do?"

"I have no way out. There are only two forks in the road ahead. Either one is notorious and will lead to eternal damnation."

"At first I thought that the female khan was afraid that I would be with you, so she drove me away. So I tried my best to be nice to you, sent the man you liked to your bed, and tried my best to prove that I was not jealous and did not take up a place by your side. But..."

The young Khan's thin, blood-red lips twitched slightly, and his self-deprecating smile was fleeting.

"But I was wrong. The empress was afraid that my family would take the position of Tangut Khan, that my mother Khan was of Rouran blood, and that I had Yuwen blood."

Yuan Wuyou knew that he was talking about the incident with Yuwen Huaibi, and felt embarrassed, so he didn't pursue the matter further.

"So you stole half of my tiger talisman and planned it for three years just to take revenge on my family?"
