Chapter 606 - 606 604 Husband why did you hit me (Second watch)
?Chapter 606: 604 Husband, why did you hit me? (Second watch) Chapter 606: 604 Husband, why did you hit me? (Second watch) Li Xianyun stepped down from the carriage, and the party only began speaking once they entered the courtyard.
“How did the Khan respond?” Li Xianyun asked Jinwu as she looked at him.
Jinwu bowed to Li Xianyun with a bent arm and said, “Reporting to Master, the Khan said he won’t be returning tonight, and instructed you to rest early and carry on as usual, without worry.”
Li Xianyun certainly didn’t believe this statement. If everything were as usual, if there wasn’t critical military intelligence, why wouldn’t Yelu Yan return? “What’s the situation in Hengzhou?”
Jinwu said, “Master, rest assured, it’s the same as before.”
Still, Li Xianyun detected a clue from his fleeting expression, “Did the Khan specifically instruct you not to tell me about the situation in Hengzhou?”
“No, the Khan gave me no such instructions. Truly, nothing has happened in Hengzhou.”
His response was overly strong, giving off the feeling that he ‘doth protest too much.’
Li Xianyun spoke coolly, “Something must have happened in Hengzhou. If you don’t tell the truth, I’ll have the Khan replace you and never let you come to Yanzhou to deliver messages again.”
Upon hearing this, Jinwu’s face changed in an instant, and he became flustered.
If he couldn’t come here to report to the Queen, then that also meant he’d lose the opportunity to see Youlan all the time—how could he bear that?
Li Xianyun saw Jinwu’s demeanor soften and pressed the advantage, “Speak, what exactly happened?”
Jinwu hesitated for a moment before finally saying, “It’s not really a big deal. While the Khan was patrolling outside Hengzhou City, the soldiers of Houliang were cursing from the city walls in an extremely nasty manner, and the Khan drew his bow and shot one of the soldiers in the head, silencing everyone on the battlements from shouting insults.”
