Wulan Tuya was the maid of Mrs. Huo'a. After the performance, she had to return to Mrs. Huo'a. She couldn't stay with Queen Tumen Baoyin for too long that night, so after leaving, she only hurriedly explained a few things to Tumen Baoyin.
After a while, he went back to Mrs. Huo'a and waited until the next day to find an opportunity to see her again.
Tumen Baoyin was milking mare milk on the grassland with a big wooden bucket. Ulan Tuya saw that other slaves were busy in the distance and no one was around, so she returned to the topic last night and said to Tumen Baoyin: "
Your Majesty, you are in a bad situation here, and I know that. Give me some time, and as time goes by, I can always make you feel better than you are now. If you ask for help, there is no reason to ask for help from Mingren."
"Why not?"
Tumen Baoyin straightened up, grabbed his apron and wiped the sweat from his temples, and asked Ulan Tuya: "Tell me, why not?"
Ulan Tuya said: "Although the Great Khan... died at the hands of Tuo Huan, if he had not been pursued by Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty and was forced to flee into Oara territory in desperation, how could he have died in the end...?
If we really count, Mingting is the culprit who killed the Great Khan!"
Tumen Baoyin asked back: "Then why did Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty pursue the Great Khan so hard?"
"because……"
Ulan Tuya couldn't continue talking.
Tumen Baoyin said in a deep voice: "If we really go back to the source, this bad debt will never be settled clearly. In fact, it was just two leaders who wanted to give their people a better place to live.
A war launched in order to consolidate and expand their power. This is not a personal grudge. It is normal for you to fight to the death on the battlefield. It would be foolish to care about personal hatred in this place.
If I really want to hate, should I hate Master Arutai even more? If he hadn’t used my husband as a puppet and abandoned him at the critical moment, my husband might not have died. Hashiha is Princess Samur
The enemy who killed his father, aren't they now living together on the same grassland, drinking water from the same river, and living in peace with each other?"
Ulan Tuya remained silent, and Tumen Baoyin said: "Tuya, you are too deeply influenced by Sinology, and you actually stick to those nonsense ideas. This is the grassland, and we are people living on the prairie.
!Some things that are incomprehensible to the Han people, even treasonous, are the ways of survival that our ancestors have figured out for generations to adapt to the grassland life!
When his father dies, his son wants to take all the wives of his father who are not his biological mother as his own. Is this barbaric? This is because the life on the grassland is hard. Our ancestors have known through countless years of survival that
If not, the wives who have lost their husbands will lose their men's care, and they will starve to death or be taken into slavery by others.
Therefore, it is the responsibility of the heir of the family. He not only has to inherit his father's power and property, but also is responsible for taking care of the women who were his father. There is also robbery. Our ancient Mongolians have ruled the Central Plains for more than a hundred years. Now,
Robbery has become a formality. You should have heard of what it was like before.
If you are snatched away from your parents, and your father and brother are even killed by force during the robbery, you will become that person's woman; if you and your husband are very loving and even have children, but someone
After killing him and taking you away, you will still become his wife. You can resist or die, but the experience of our ancestors tells us that you should live and live well!"
Tumen Baoyin stared at Ulan Tuya and said: "Tuya, don't you admire Mrs. Huo'a? Yes, after he was snatched away by Elbek Khan, he was killed by a trick.
Taiwei Huwuhai avenged her former husband. But Huwuhai was just the one who came up with the idea. Who was the real murderer? It was Elbek Khan. The one she really deserved to kill was Elbek Khan, but
She didn't!
After she became Elbek Khan's bed partner, she had many opportunities to kill him. Did she do so? After she killed Taiwei Huwuhai, she was determined to be Elbek Khan's woman.
?If it weren’t for the fight for power, Hashiha killed Elbek Khan and snatched her away, she would not even know how many children she had given birth to for Elbek!”
Tumen Baoyin's eyes were filled with tears and he whispered: "Tuya! We are women, we can only live like dodder, dependent on men! Here, no one pities you for being a widow. In the Central Plains
In the Han people's place, kicking down widows' doors and digging up family graves was a shameful act that was reviled by others. But here, it is natural for the strong to possess, bully and enslave the weak. This is the grassland and the world of wolves.
!”
Ulan Tuya lowered her eyes silently, and after a long time, she said quietly: "So, what do you plan to do?"
Tumen Baoyin said: "My mother is sick and has traveled a long way here. She has been suffering from a low fever these days, but the witch doctor in the tribe is too lazy to give her medicine. If you hadn't helped to get some medicine, I'm afraid she would have...
..., even so, she still worked in the tent to make clothes and robes every day. If she couldn't finish the required number of clothes every day, she would be beaten and starve.
Tuya, I want to go to the Central Plains and get the protection of Emperor Yongle, where our fortunes will not be the same as here. Yesterday, I heard Grandma Gao Wa talk about their experience in the Central Plains, which strengthened my idea.
The Oara people secretly established the Great Khan, which the emperor of the Central Plains cannot tolerate. I can tell the Ming court envoys the truth, and I can also serve as a witness for them!
In exchange, I want them to take my mother and me to the Central Plains. I don’t need fine clothing, food, clothing, or much care. As long as my mother and daughter are treated as ordinary people, it’s better than being slaves here.
Tuya, I hope you can help me get in touch with Mingren. You know how difficult it is to get close to them given my identity.
If you are willing, I hope you can come with me, maybe... You have been the 'beggar' of your tribe since you were a child. When you grew up, you received more respect and respect because of your marriage to Grand Master Arutai.
Beloved, even after escaping to Wala, I was protected by Mrs. Huo'a. You have never experienced so many hardships, so you can't understand..."
Tumen Baoyin looked into the distance sadly, and said sadly: "You won't think about what will be left after you lose your attachment. You can't control your own destiny, you can't live according to your own wishes, and live with dignity..."
The horses ate grass and walked around casually, blocking the eyes of others around them. Tumen Baoyin suddenly knelt down to Ulan Tuya and cried: "Tuya, help me once, just once!"
Ulan Tuya was shocked, and quickly stretched out her hand to help her, saying, "My dear, what are you doing?"
Tumen Baoyin refused to get up. She knelt on the ground and said sadly: "Don't call me empress anymore. I am now... just a pitiful and helpless woman. I have no other way out. Tuya, please help me."
help me!"
Wulantuya felt sour in her heart and said quickly: "My dear, get up quickly, don't do this, I... promise to help you!"
At this moment, someone from a distance shouted: "Ulantuya! Ulantuya!"
Tumen Baoyin was startled and stood up quickly. He looked around and found no one could see here. After a while, the call came closer, and then they saw a girl among the horses.
Riding a horse, galloping and shouting loudly.
This is a maid next to Mrs. Huo'a. From the looks of it, she is looking for Ulan Tuya, rather than discovering their actions. The two of them felt at ease. Ulan Tuya turned to Tumen Baoyin and said: "
My empress, don’t worry, I will find an opportunity to meet the Ming court envoy, just wait for me!"
After saying that, he hurried forward and shouted loudly: "Naren, I'm here, what can I do?"
When the girl saw her, she quickly reined in her horse and stood up, with a smile on her face and said: "Ah! You are here, hurry up, Hatun has something to see you for!"
Ulan Tuya was very puzzled. She didn't understand what urgent matter Huo Ahatun had to ask someone to come to her. You must know that she was just a maid next to Hatun, and usually Huo Ahatun didn't need such a big pomp even when he went out.
You can just bring two random people with you, she doesn't have to be the one accompanying you.
Wulantuya grabbed a horse and jumped on it. This horse was not equipped with a saddle, and the horse's back was bare. But with her riding skills, there was no need to worry. Wulantuya clamped her legs and drove the horse.
A horse galloped away behind the girl named Naren...
"What, get married?"
Wulantuya did not expect that Mrs. Huo'a wanted to see her to discuss her life-long affairs, and she couldn't help being shocked.
Huo Ahatun said with joy on his face: "Yes, Tuya, you are not young anymore. It is time to consider this life-long matter. In fact, since you came to me, I don't know that there are many outstanding young people who like you."
Well, these people, although their family backgrounds are not bad, I think they may not be worthy of my Tuya, so I rejected them for you, but this time it is different..."
Huo Ahatun waved her hand and dismissed several maids waiting in the tent. She pulled Ulan Tuya to her side and said mysteriously: "Tuya, do you know who is interested in you?"
Ulan Tuya said quietly: "Who is it?"
Huo Ahatun said happily: "You will never think of it, Tuya, it's our sweat, it's Tuo Tuo Bu Hua Khan who has taken a fancy to you!"
"Gah? Take off... take off, take off, don't take off... sweat profusely?"
Wulantuya was sweating profusely. She looked very shocked, and her eyes were a little confused. After thinking for a long time, she remembered in her mind the undressed one she had seen in the "Babai Tent", with gray hair and a full face.
Vicissitudes of life, an uncle who looks about fifty years old...
Huo Ahatun said happily: "Yes, it is impossible to take out the wife left by the Great Khan in the Central Plains. The Great Khan is now alone. When we went to see the Great Khan that day, the Great Khan fell in love with you at a glance. Today
I specially asked Agador Ji Taiji to come and convey his love for you to me on behalf of the Great Khan, so of course I agreed!"
Huo Ahatun clapped his hands together and said with great joy: "My little Tuya deserves a great hero! Congratulations, Tuya, you are going to become the Hadun (Queen) of our Mongolian people!"
