My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 938 Ayili’s request
Zhu Qiming reported his identity. He thought he would see the envoy sent by Timur, but he did not expect that the last person who came out was a weak girl holding a girl in her hand. Both of them had slightly red eyes, as if they had been raped before. Scared to tears.

"Sultana Aili of the Timurid Empire, pays homage to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! Thank you very much to the Crown Prince for leading his troops to rescue us, otherwise my sister and I would have died at the hands of the thief!"

Ayili walked forward with Sara in hand, saluted and thanked Zhu Qiming.

Sultana is the name given to royal women in the Timur Empire, and can be the mother, wife or daughter of the sultan.

"can you speak Chinese?"

Zhu Qiming was also a little surprised when he heard that Ayili spoke fluent Chinese.

"I have been studying with my father since I was a child. I also admire the culture of the Han Dynasty, so I have a little understanding of the Chinese language."

Ayili had calmed down from her panic and answered very generously.

In fact, she is completely proficient in Chinese. Not only can she speak it, but she can also write it. She has even read a lot of Chinese books. For example, her favorite novel is "The Adventures of Princess Helen" written by Helen based on her own experience. remember".

Seeing that this girl could still talk to him so calmly after experiencing life and death, Zhu Qiming couldn't help but show admiration, and he also had a better impression of Ayili.

"Princess Aili, please get in the car. I will take you back to Peshawar. I will personally escort you to Xijing. My father specifically asked me to protect your safety!"

Zhu Qiming said again very politely.

"Your Highness!"

Ayili thanked her again, and then she took her sister into the carriage. Zhu Qiming personally led his troops to escort them back to the city.

When Zhu Qiming and others returned to Peshawar, the cavalry who went to pursue them also returned with full load. Most of the bandits who participated in the attack on Ayili were killed, and a few were made prisoners, because the big man wanted to interrogate some information from their mouths. After all, generally The robbers would not dare to attack the mission.

After Ayili and Sara entered the city, Zhu Qiming arranged for the sisters to live in the palace. At the same time, he also sent someone to report to Zhu Zhanhe, telling him the news that Ayili had been attacked. Although the bandits had not been interrogated, Zhu Qiming According to analysis, this is likely to be the result of the power struggle within the Timurid Empire.

Ayili was not as strong as she appeared. It was not until she and her sister lived in the palace and confirmed that they were safe that the two sisters hugged each other and cried for a long time. Of course, they shed tears of joy for the rest of their lives after the disaster.

However, in the next few days, Sarah was so frightened that she fell seriously ill, which frightened Aili. Fortunately, Zhu Qiming sent an imperial doctor to treat Sarah and prescribed some symptomatic medicine for her to take. Then Sarah's condition began to improve.

During the time when Sara was ill, Zhu Qiming often came to visit, so he inevitably came into contact with Ayili. He soon discovered that Ayili was not only beautiful, but also knowledgeable, especially in astronomy and arithmetic. His attainments are no worse than those of professors in the university.

Ayili also has a good impression of Zhu Qiming, the prince. After all, it was the other party who led his troops to save her when she was about to die. This kind of life-saving grace is also easy for people to get close to. In addition, Zhu Qiming is not much older than her. They are of the same age as him, so she has a certain admiration for Zhu Qiming.

But now there is no time for the two to cultivate their relationship. Zhu Zhanhe sent people several times to urge Zhu Qiming to return to the capital. Because the situation in the Ming Dynasty was becoming more and more urgent, he also had to leave for Managa to take charge, so Zhu Qiming also had to return early. Beijing supervises the country.

So after Sarah's condition improved, Zhu Qiming personally escorted Sister Ayili to set off again, crossed the Khyber Pass, and soon arrived in Xijing.

Ayli and Sara were born in Samarkand, which was the most prosperous city in the Timurid Empire. They had always thought that there could be no city more prosperous than Samarkand in the world. But when they saw Xijing City with their own eyes, they realized how ignorant they were before, especially Ayili. She had heard her father say before that Xijing in the Han Dynasty was very prosperous, but when she saw this great city with her own eyes, When she visited the city, she realized how pale her father's description was. She always prided herself on being knowledgeable, but she couldn't find the right words to describe this city.

Especially when passing by the train station in Xijing, a legendary train came "woo woo woo", frightened the timid Sara and got into Ayili's arms. Ayili's eyes also widened, I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

Zhu Qiming felt a little funny when he saw Aili's shocked look in the carriage, so he acted as a guide himself, explaining some of the scenery of Xijing City to her and Sara, and even promised to take them to visit the entire Xijing City in the future.

Finally, Zhu Qiming took Aili and Sara into the imperial city. The two sisters once again felt that their eyes could not see enough. Although the imperial city of Samarkand was also very magnificent, its scale was far smaller than that of the Han Dynasty.

Zhu Zhanhe received Sister Ayili at the Wuying Hall. When Ayili saw Zhu Zhanhe, she immediately stepped forward and saluted: "Ayili pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty!"

Compared with Aili, Sara is young and timid. She always hides behind her sister and seems very restrained.

"There's no need to be polite. Your father and I were on equal terms back then, and you were considered my junior. Just call me Uncle Zhu from now on!"

Zhu Zhanhe also said to Ayili very kindly.

Before, Ulugh Bo only said that he would send his most beloved child to the Han Dynasty. Zhu Zhanhe always thought that the other child was Ulughbo's son, but he did not expect that the daughter who came was actually a daughter, one older and one younger. This made Zhu Zhanhe I also felt a little curious. Based on the customs of the Timur Empire, it would be a strange thing for a girl to be so favored by Ulugh Beg.

"Thank you Uncle Zhu!"

Ayili was not polite and immediately changed her words.

"I heard that you were attacked on the way to Dahan, but you don't have to worry. Now that you have arrived in Dahan, there will definitely be no problem with your safety. In addition, your father asked me to take good care of you, so you can rest assured that you are here with Dahan. Stay.”

Zhu Zhanhe said to Ayili cordially again.

"Thank you Uncle Zhu, but I want to ask you to do me a favor!"

Unexpectedly, Ayili's eyes suddenly turned red at this moment, and she saluted Zhu Zhanhe again.

"What do you want me to help you with?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked curiously.

"Although I don't know what happened to my father, I could feel before I left that my father and mother might be in danger, so I would like to ask Uncle Zhu to send someone to protect the safety of my father and mother. It is best if you can Bring them to the big man!"

Aili pleaded with tears in her eyes. She had entered the territory of the Han Dynasty before, but those people still refused to let her go, so Aili was very sure that her parents who stayed in Samarkand must be in bigger trouble.
