Compared with Ashina Koda six years ago, he has lost his impetuosity when he ascended the Khan position, and his brows are not as sharp as before, but calm and poignant, which makes people unable to help but be convinced.

If the other party is an ally, Chu Huaiqing will be very happy to deal with such a person. If it is a hostile identity, Chu Huaiqing estimates that his master should have a feeling of sympathy with the other party, but the situation he faces directly makes this Two kinds of exclusion are not only embarrassing, but also... embarrassing.

"His Royal Highness didn't return all night!?"

Harmon stared furiously at the princess' entourage, who was so frightened that the entourage nodded repeatedly.

Everyone present was very worried about the safety of the princess. Harmon's outburst undoubtedly added to the anger of the others. Ashina Koda immediately rubbed his brows and said, "Harmon, be quiet."

"But Khan, Your Royal Highness—"

A slap slammed on the table, and the objects on the table fell to the ground uncontrollably. The man who looked up was full of anger, and his cold eyes stabbed at Harmon who was about to speak: "I tell you to be quiet!" ——!”

Harmon was taken aback, and stopped immediately, put his right hand on his left chest, bowed slightly: "Forgive me for being rude."

Ashina Koda waved his hands as if he didn't want to say much, and looked at Chu Huaiqing below, his face was not soothed: "Geiya said that the princess has been staying with you before this, then, the princess is now where?"

Compared with his own reputation, Chu Huaiqing was more worried about the safety of the princess. He frowned and said, "Although Xiaosheng played with the princess until midnight yesterday, he separated after he came back. Xiaosheng doesn't know where the princess is now."

The person who didn't have a good impression of Chu Huaiqing at the beginning scolded: "You are lying, the princess has not returned all night!"

Ashina Koda clasped his hands and put them on the table. He did not stop the man from speaking, and the coldness in his eyes remained unchanged. He obviously did not believe Chu Huaiqing's words: "Although my sister likes to do some ridiculous things, but She has always understood what is meant by propriety, and she will not spend a whole night with a strange man—or a man of a foreign race!"

Chu Huaiqing could almost guess what Ashina Koda would say next.

"If it wasn't for what you did to her, how could she be so close to you?"

"..."

The surrounding Turkic people interpreted Chu Huaiqing's silence as a guilty acquiescence, and their faces immediately became extremely ugly, wishing they could rush up the next moment and tear Chu Huaiqing into pieces.

"Princesses never walk with men, what did this man do to our princess!"

"The princess is a woman, he is a man, they stayed outside all night, could it be to our princess—"

"Our princess's martial arts is taught by Khan himself, and she is also a heroine after all. With his appearance as a weak lamb, how could he persecute our princess?"

"I heard that most Han men are cunning, and they like to deceive girls' feelings with sweet words. Maybe he used these dirty methods to deceive the princess!"

"This damn guy!"

"Don't stop me, I'm going to kill him!"

The wolf-like eyes seemed to want to swallow him alive, Chu Huaiqing took a deep breath, so as not to be affected by such eyes, he looked back at Ashina Koda on the seat as calmly as possible: "I didn't What kind of methods are used against Her Highness, the princess came to me, just wanting to be friends with me, we really separated last night."

"False! False! False—!"

Ashina Koda stood up suddenly, staring at Chu Huaiqing's face, the murderous intent in his eyes almost solidified: "How many lies do you have to tell now!? Tell me immediately, the princess is now where--!!"

The roar pierced through the eardrums, but Chu Huaiqing did not avoid it, let alone the slightest fear, and said every word, sonorously: "I would like to swear to God, every word I just said just now is not the slightest lie, if there is any violation of this If I swear, I will be sent to the eighteenth level of hell, where I will be cut into pieces by thousands of knives, and I will never be reborn!"

The Turkic guards who were noisy just now suddenly fell silent. Ashinako straightened up and looked at Chu Huaiqing in the dark. Although he was no longer as excited as before, he didn't have a good tone: "Compare with the princess!" Get up, what is your fate?"

Chu Huaiqing was still extremely calm: "My life is indeed nothing, but if I can exchange my life for Her Royal Highness, I will not hesitate."

"..."

"Please Khan believe it." Chu Huaiqing put his right hand on his left chest, and said seriously, "His Royal Highness is my friend. Now that the princess has an accident, I am no less worried than any of you."

Ashina Koda stared at Chu Huaiqing's expression, as if he wanted to see if he was lying or not. After a while, he sighed half-compromisingly, and the oppressive momentum faded away, his brows were full of tiredness: "To be honest, although I advocate friendship with you Han people, I never dare to believe how true your words are."

Chu Huaiqing remained silent.

When Jin walked in at some point, he glanced at Chu Huaiqing when he knew what was going on, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes. He half-knelt down, and told Ashina Koda: "Khan, I don't know about other things. Is it worth trusting the words of the Han, but I know that this Han will not do anything against the princess."

Ashinako looked at his most loyal guard and his brothers from childhood: "What guarantee do you use?"

Jin looked directly at the other party and said firmly: "Use my reputation as a Turkic warrior."

Everyone was in an uproar immediately.

"gold?"

"Jin is actually speaking for that Han man, and he still uses the reputation of a warrior..."

"Could it be that this Han man really didn't do anything?"

"this....."

"After all, Jindu guaranteed him."

Harmon looked at the others, stood up without much hesitation, and knelt side by side with Jin on one knee: "Khan, although I don't get along with this Han man very much, and occasionally feel that he is not a good person, I also believe that he He will definitely not be a bad person, I, Harmon, would like to swear on the reputation of a warrior that he will not harm Her Royal Highness."

Looking at Jin and Harmon who were kneeling in front of him, Chu Huaiqing's hands were slightly clenched, as if a cluster of flames rose from the ground and became more intense in his chest.

Moved?

Apart from this word, there is no other word that can more appropriately describe Chu Huaiqing's current mood.

Seeing this, Ge Ya gritted his teeth and was about to take a step forward. Ashinako sensed his intention and waved helplessly: "Okay, forget it."

Ge Ya: "..." Little cabbage, yellow ground.

"For the sake of Jin and Harmon, I will trust you." Ashinako rubbed his forehead, "Tell me, what did you and my sister do last night."

"Is such that."

Trying to recall what happened last night, Chu Huaiqing tried not to let himself skip every detail, except for skipping the princess's confession to him, exchanging their lack of interest in continuing to have fun and being forced to return late because they were too tired, everything else There is no concealment, and it is said word for word.

"It was very late when the princess and I came back, and we walked until..."

Ashinaji, who had just stepped into the main tent, froze, and directly interrupted Chu Huaiqing's next words: "What did you say?"

Chu Huaiqing stopped talking, looked at Ashinaji who walked in front of him, and frowned slightly.

The people present were also a little surprised by Ashinaji's abrupt behavior, but because the two factions had always been at odds, they only thought that Ashinaji was habitually provoking trouble, and didn't take it to heart.

Ashinako also thinks so, but it doesn't mean that he will ignore Ashnaji's cannibalistic gaze, and his voice sinks: "Ashnaji, what are you planning to do?"

Amaru who was beside him quickly reminded Ashinaji to come back to his senses, his vicious eyes scratched Chu Huaiqing's neck, and he turned to face Ashinako: "I just heard that murdering a little sister The suspect has been caught, so I just came here to ask about the situation."

The next moment, he turned to Chu Huaiqing: "It seems that this is the person in front of me."

Although Ashinaji belongs to the main combat faction, Ashinaji clearly knows that the other party just likes to fight against him, so he chose another faction. The killing intent that couldn't be concealed subverted his previous cognition.

Even if he really hates the Han people, Ashinaji's vision is too much.

Chu Huaiqing kept silent from the moment Ashinaji entered the tent, even when Ashinaji looked at him.

Although Chu Huaiqing did not speak, but considering Ashinaji's attitude, Ashinako thought it was necessary to defend the other party: "No, he is not a suspect, but an insider."

Hearing the three words 'insider', Ashinaji's gaze became darker, but it was fleeting: "Really."

Chu Huaiqing squinted slightly, taking in the strangeness of the other party without any trace.

Ashinaji looked at the man in the seat: "So, brother, can you guarantee that this person is not a suspect?"

"when--"

"Brother, are you sure you can guarantee it?" Ashinaji cut off what the man on the seat wanted to say, and smiled, "Guarantee my little sister's life?"

Everyone: "!"

As expected, Ashinaji was the one who knew Ashinaji's lifeline best. Seeing that the other party didn't speak, he said, "That's not guaranteed."

"Since the elder brother can't ask anything from this suspect, the younger brother has to do it himself. After all, the person who is worried about the safety of the younger sister is not only the elder brother, but also me as the second brother." After finishing speaking, Ashinaji almost He waved his hand without stopping, "Arrest this Han man!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Jin quickly shot to stop him: "No way!"

Ashinaji drew his sword, and put it in front of Jin, with gloomy eyes: "Guard Jin, you are just a guard next to my elder brother, please pay attention to your own identity, you are not qualified to make the decision I have to make." stop."

"you......"

"Enough!" Ashinako said, "Second brother, you are capable enough to draw the sword in the main tent, so let me go!"

Ashinaji refused to step back, he chuckled: "If I don't let go, brother, will you still use your status as Khan to suppress me?"

"Pay attention to your identity!"

"My identity is my little sister's second brother. I have the qualifications to interrogate the suspect who hurt my sister!"

Chu Huaiqing, who was being suppressed, suddenly said: "Turkic Khan, we Han people have a saying that we are not afraid of the shadow when we are upright. I am willing to accept his interrogation."

Everyone was shocked, and Jin couldn't help scolding: "Shut up! Do you know what you're talking about!?"

Harmon wanted to rush over and shake Chu Huaiqing's head, to hear if there was the sound of the sea inside: "Are your brains burned out, what nonsense are you talking about!?"

"I'm sober, and I know what I'm talking about." Chu Huaiqing looked at Ashina Koda calmly, "Khan please agree."

It is a good thing to have courage, but the courage to go beyond the scope of one's own ability can only be regarded as the courage of a man. Ashina Koda said helplessly: "If you insist on doing this."

Although Ashinaji was surprised, he sneered more: "Don't worry, I will definitely give you a 'fairness', you guys, take him away with me."

"Wait a moment--"

Seeing that it was Chu Huaiqing who made the sound, Ashina Koda frowned. Did this person suddenly wake up and regret it?

"What's the matter with you?"

I saw Chu Huaiqing unhurriedly said: "The princess stayed with me before she disappeared. I am the 'only' person who knows about the princess's disappearance. Apart from me, no one else will know about the princess. Fall." Bitten the only two words extremely hard.

"It's not that I doubt the interrogation ability of His Royal Highness Ji, but that the current Khan is His Majesty Ashina Koda, and His Majesty Koda is the real person in charge. It is related to the safety of His Highness the Princess. If I ask anything out of my mouth, I will finally hand it over to His Majesty Koda for interrogation."

"Since Majesty Koda will come to interrogate me in the end, then I must live until that time. I can't help it. My body is always fragile, and any injury may kill me. If His Highness Ji doesn't believe it, you can try it again." try."

Finally, Chu Huaiqing smiled slightly, and calmly looked at the ugly Ashinaji: "I've finished my words, please Your Highness Ji, please take me away."

Ashinaji clenched his fists and shouted violently, "Take him away, immediately!"

"Wait a minute." Ashina Koda seemed to understand the meaning of Chu Huaiqing's words, "I think what he said makes sense."

"Big brother?"

"Even if you are my younger brother, my younger sister's second younger brother, but also, I am today's khan, and even my younger sister's elder brother." Ashina Koda said, "The safety of the princess is not a trivial matter, and it cannot be entrusted to you alone." You alone are in charge."

A stern look flashed across Ashnaji's face, and he suppressed his anger: "What does that brother mean?"

"I only give you a two-day deadline, and you have to guarantee the life and death of this Han man. After two days, you must hand over this Han man to me intact."

Ashinako stared into Ashnaji's eyes incredulously. Whether it was the murder six years ago or the conspiracy methods in the past six years, this was the first time that he disregarded his family and used his identity as a khan to deal with My second brother: "If something happens to him and my younger sister dies because of it, Ashinaji, Ben Khan swears on the honor of the first Turkic warrior, one, sure, no, yes, let, pass, you."
