Needless to say what the result was, as soon as he rushed out of the cave, several scimitars were placed on Shen Bing's neck.

Shen Bing also said that this time he was going to die, but he didn't expect that the woman yelled a few words, and those "bad men" put away their weapons.

Shen Bing was dumbfounded.

What's the situation?

These gangsters actually listen to this woman's order?

However, the woman was forcibly put on a horse, and Shen Bing was also tied hands and feet and thrown on the horse's back. He was led like a cargo into the desert wind and sand...

Shen Bing should be glad that the wind and sand are relatively small at this time, otherwise he would have suffocated to death after being carried on the horse's back for more than half an hour.

Then a group of people walked into a city.

They were also polite to Shen Bing, they put Shen Bing in an earthen room and untied him, and gave him food and water, but there were still people watching at the door.

Shen Bing wanted to ask something, but he couldn't do anything because of the language barrier.

However, what Shen Bing can confirm is that these "villains" seem to be officers and soldiers, because their costumes and weapons are the same.

Then Shen Bing realized that he might have helped the wrong person...

If they were officers and soldiers, wouldn't the woman be a thief or a prisoner?

But it's not right, if that woman is a thief... How can those officers and soldiers listen to her?

It was not until it was dark two hours later that several guards opened the door and took Shen Bing out.

After making a few bends in a garden with the characteristics of the Western Regions, I entered an attic with a lighted lamp and a scent... As I said before, the oil lamps lit by rich people will add spices.

However, spices are nothing in the Western Regions. Like the silk in the Central Plains, it is only worth transporting to other places.

In the middle sat a girl from the Western Regions wearing a mask, and more than a dozen maids stood on both sides, holding fruit plates with various fruits and fine wine in their hands.

Seeing Shen Bing coming up, the girl from the Western Regions slowly got up, motioned the maid to put the fruit plate and wine in front of Shen Bing, and said in blunt Central Plains dialect:

"Jia Ming, save my life."

"What kind of reward do you want, you can talk about it."

Shen Bing couldn't help being startled when he heard that voice, staring at the girl from the Western Regions in surprise and asked:

"You...you are that..."

Only then did Shen Bing realize that he didn't even know the woman's name.

The girl said coldly:

"My name, Dile."

"In Qin's dialect, it should be called Princess Wuyou."

Shen Bing immediately widened his eyes:

"Are you a princess?"

Princess Wuyou nodded and said slowly:

"You saved me, what reward do you want, you can mention it now!"

Shen Bing looked around and asked:

[Receive cash red envelopes] Read the book and get cash!Follow WeChat. Official account [Book Friends Base Camp], cash/coins are waiting for you!

"Which country are you the princess of?"

Princess Wuyou didn't answer and asked instead:

"Have you ever heard of Kucha?"

Shen Bing opened his mouth for a long time but didn't react.

He actually ran into Princess Kucha and was taken to Kucha?

4Chapter 17 Coincidence

When Shen Bing came back to his senses, he cupped his hands and asked Princess Wuyou:

"As far as I know, Qin Jun and Qiuci are not enemies."

"Why does the princess hate Qin people so much?"

Princess Wuyou didn't seem to want to discuss this topic, so she replied coldly:

"This has nothing to do with you."

"Go back if you want some rewards!"

Shen Bing wanted to do the same, but this Qiuci regards Qin Jun as an enemy... Then it can't be said that it has nothing to do with Shen Bing.

So Shen Bing replied:

"The reward that the subordinate wants is the answer to this question."

"And the subordinate is a member of the Qin Army. The Qin Army is hoping to form an alliance with Qiuci. I don't know why Qiuci regards the Qin Army as an enemy."

"So this matter is very important. If the princess can tell the reason, I will be very grateful!"

Princess Wuyou was stunned for a moment, then replied:

"Actually, it's not that Qiuci wants to be the enemy of the Qin army, but I am the enemy of the Qin army."

Shen Bing wondered:

"Why is that?"

The worry-free princess asked back:

"Is that another question?"

Shen Bing was taken aback for a moment, then laughed:

"If the princess thinks this is not an answer to repay her life-saving grace, then the subordinate will admit it!"

As he said that, he bowed his hands to Princess Wuyou and turned around to leave.

Princess Wuyou called out from behind:

"Wait a minute!"

After speaking, he signaled Shen Bing to sit down in front of the case, and sighed leisurely:

"It's okay to tell you."

"Father wants to marry me to Shen Bing, the great general of the Qin army."

"I escaped from Kucha because I escaped from marriage. I didn't want to encounter a sandstorm before I walked far."

These words surprised Shen Bing so much that his jaw almost dropped to the table.

It turned out that not only Shen Bing was worried about the alliance, but also Kucha.

As Ze said before, King Qiuci had one, two, or three scruples about the Qin army, the main one being the issue of trust. He was worried that the Qin army would cross the river and demolish the bridge, and then drive the countries in the Western Regions to fight the Huns and then reap the benefits of fishermen.

What Shen Bing didn't know was that King Kucha was more worried than him.

Because the king of Qiuci made a total calculation: [-] Qin troops can defeat [-] Xiongnu troops. Now there are [-] Qin troops in the Western Regions. It is said that more Qin troops will come from Yuezhi in the future. Isn't the Western Regions the Qin army's world?

Although Qiuci is the largest country in the Western Regions and its city walls are stronger than those of Loulan and Gushi, what are the [-] troops compared to the Qin army?

In addition, the Qin army still has firearms that can attack the city... Isn't it easy to capture Kucha?

But if they form an alliance to attack the Huns... who knows if the Qin army is cheating?

Just when King Qiuci was in a dilemma, Dadu Weicheng (equivalent to the prime minister of the Central Plains) suggested:

"My lord, why don't we marry Qin Jun?"

"It is said that Shen Bing, the great general of the Qin State, is still unmarried. If he can be recruited as his son-in-law..."

"Qiuci and Qin Jun are one family, I think that today's crisis can be resolved."

When King Kucha heard this, it made sense.

It just so happens that Princess Wuyou is an adult, and has been in charge of business between Yueshi and Qiuci for a long time and has learned some Qin language. Wouldn't it be a good thing to marry her to the general of the Qin State?

So immediately summoned Princess Wuyou to tell her about this matter.

Princess Wuyou didn't want to, but she firmly opposed it.

No matter how King Kucha moved, he showed emotion and reasoned, Princess Wuyou just refused to follow.

After that, he escaped from Kucha alone and planned to go far away.

Who would have thought that just after escaping from Kucha, he was blocked by a sandstorm and almost lost his life.

Those who were misunderstood by Shen Bing as "bad people" were the guards who went to find her, and these guards misunderstood Shen Bing as the object of Princess Wuyou's elopement...so they took Shen Bing back to Kucha without any explanation.

King Kucha was surprised when he heard about this, and asked Princess Wuyou:

"You kept saying that you would never marry a Qin man, but why did you elope with a Qin soldier?"

"When did you meet?"

Princess Wuyou wanted to defend herself, but then she thought about it, why not just admit it so that her father would stop marrying her.

So he said without hesitation:

"The father doesn't know something, he is just an ordinary soldier, and the daughter knows that the father is against it, so..."

Seeing Princess Wuyou's admission, King Kucha couldn't help but tremble with anger:

"You...you are so confused."

"The general of the Qin army didn't like it, but he took a fancy to a soldier."

"You know that the fate of Kucha is in your hands, but you treat it like a joke!"

"Let me ask you... How many people still know about this?"

Princess Wuyou couldn't help being startled, could it be that her father wanted to kill people to silence her?

So hasten to answer:

"Father Wang Mingjian."

"My daughter met Jia Ming when she went to Loulan to do business last month. Qin Jun knows a lot about it."

"That's why my daughter dare not agree to marry Shen Bing."

"I'm afraid that my daughter will be recognized by soldiers after marrying Shen Bing, wouldn't that be..."

King Kucha sighed and said:

"That's all."

"If you want to blame, blame this king for not letting you be in charge of business and trade to show your face outside!"

So with a wave of his hand, Princess Wuyou stepped back.

Princess Wuyou still has some conscience, she is worried that King Qiuci still has the heart to kill people, so she wants to send Shen Bing away immediately after returning.

Shen Bing asked a little unwillingly:

"I don't know the princess...why would you rather die than marry that Qin general?"

"But do you think Shen Bing, the general of the Qin State, is not good enough for the princess?"

The worry-free princess replied:

"But it's not unworthy."

"He is a dignified general of the Qin State, and his reputation is only higher than that of Qiuci. It is said that he is capable of literature and martial arts, and he is full of knowledge. How can he not be worthy of me, the princess of Qiuci?"

This made Shen Bing blush a little, and he is not full of literary and military skills... But this is really the way it is spread outside, and it is even more exaggerated.

Princess Kucha went on to say:

"It's just that I haven't even met him face to face, so how can I marry casually?"

"Maybe he's still a bad old man!"

No wonder Princess Qiuci didn't know Shen Bing's age.
