Xuan Yunzi's eyes were closed in frustration, and he gritted his teeth and scolded himself: I would be so careless and lose my vigilance!

Ai Yan had already stood up, with an extra dagger in his hand, and looked at Du Xilu coldly.

Outside the courtyard, two Turkic slave girls were already paralyzed and did not move, not knowing whether they were dead or alive. The other two Han female slave girls and the little boy had been caught and gagged, unable to move or make a sound.

"Don't be rude!" Ai Yan stopped in front of the couch, stretched out his dagger, and put on a posture of wanting to protect Xuan Yunzi.

"Princess Aiyan, I have no intention of offending you." He tilted his head to look at Xuan Yunzi on the bed, smiled coldly, and said, "But I can understand Chinese." I know that this Han woman is a spy, and she is instigating you to kill me. ”

"Never!"

"I heard it with my own ears!"

The two quarreled-for-tat for two sentences, and Ai Yan took a deep breath, "You'd better leave quickly, or the gods will be angry with you!" ”

"I'll leave." He touched his mustache, smiled coldly, and then raised his finger to Ai Yan, and then pointed at Xuan Yunzi, "You guys, too, go together!" ”

"Don't think!" Ai Yan's arm was raised, and a cold light flashed from the dagger.

He smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's not you." ”

At this moment, a scream suddenly came from outside. He turned his head to see that one of his samurai had fallen to the ground convulsing and screaming, and the little boy was pounced on him and bit his neck, blood spurting wildly!

At the entrance of the fence, more than a dozen black-clothed slaves left behind by Yuan Zhen were rushing in, shouting loudly, "Protect the Divine Mother!" Protect the Son of God! ”

"Dare to be a slave, dare to rebel! The beast of the beast should be destroyed! He shouted, "Kill them all, capture the princess!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the two warriors had no time to draw their swords from their sheaths, and they suddenly felt a flower in front of them, their eyes widened, and the whole person could no longer move.

Ai Yan was stunned, she subconsciously raised her hand to see that it was empty. The dagger that was originally in her hand had been deeply pierced into the throat of the cocoon. Then, it was immediately pulled out by a woman who was as weak as water, and quickly plunged into the chest of the majestic warrior on the left side behind him, straight into the stalk!

Almost at the same time, a perfect jade hand, which was born to play the zither, struck the tip of the throat of another warrior like an ice blade, and there was a click.

The knife is like lightning, and the person is like a ghost!

Duxitra and the two samurai fell to the ground almost at the same time. The weapons of the three people have not yet had time to be unsheathed.

Xuan Yunzi looked back at Ai Yan and smiled slightly, "I said it, you need a helper." ”

Ai Yan suddenly came back to his senses, exclaimed "son" and jumped out of the window. Xuan Yunzi decisively pulled out a scimitar from the corpse, "Xue Shao is right, killing people is really addictive!" ”

A pitched battle.

In the end, there were only seven people left standing in the large courtyard, Xuan Yunzi, Ai Yan and his children, and four black-clothed household slaves.

Looking at the blood and corpses all over the ground, Ai Yan gasped, "Now, what should I do?" ”

The little boy said loudly: "Mother, they are all bad people! The bad guys must have accomplices, I'm going to kill them all! ”

Everyone was slightly startled and looked at him in amazement.

"I am the son of the god of war!" Facing everyone's gaze, the little boy shouted, "If they offend the gods, they will all die!" ”

"Stop arguing." Ai Yan scolded, walked up to Xuan Yunzi, and said, "I'm asking you - what should I do next?" ”

Xuan Yunzi looked at the black-clothed household slaves. They were busy disposing of the corpses.

Ai Yan said: "They are Yuanzhen's household slaves, and they are also the guardians of the sacred mountain. They are absolutely loyal to Yuanzhen, and the same is true for our mother and son. Also, they've all been castrated. ”

Xuan Yunzi looked down at the corpses again, pondered for a long time, and then said, "I'm wondering, did Lu Xilu come to arrest you privately, or did he come on the orders of the Bone Lu Khan?" ”

Ai Yan frowned, "Is there a difference?" ”

"There's a big difference." Xuan Yunzi said, "If the Khan sends him, we will have nowhere to escape and be absolutely dead." If he came without permission, then we still have a chance to live! ”

Ai Yan pondered for a moment and nodded, "That makes sense!" In my opinion, it seems more likely that he came without permission. ”

"Why?" Xuan Yunzi asked rhetorically.

Ai Yan said: "In fact, for a long time, the brothers Du Xilu and Mo Si have been at odds with Yuanzhen. If it weren't for the bullet pressure on it, it is estimated that they would have made it a long time ago. Especially Silly, he has always been disgusted with the matter of the Son of God. In addition, as you said, this time he was defeated in Yinchuan and became a prisoner again. Therefore, I think that the possibility that he came to take revenge and kill people without permission seems to be even greater! ”

Xuan Yunzi smiled slightly, "Actually, the order given by Xuan Xi before he died already explained everything. He just wants to kill your children and slaves. I didn't intend to kill you. ”

Ai Yan's expression changed slightly, "Is he trying to control me?" ”

"Yes." Xuan Yunzi said, "I don't know what kind of ambition Du Xilu has, but since he dares to kill the Son of God and kidnap you, there must be a bigger plan behind it. This is also the talisman that we can use to save our lives! ”

Ai Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, "You mean, I can take the initiative to go to the Bone Lu Khan and report to him about his disobedient behavior?" ”

"Yes." Xuan Yunzi nodded and said, "Lu Xilu was defeated first and then became a deserter, and Gu Lulu must be extremely disappointed in him. As soon as he returned to China, he was stripped of his official title and military power, and he was almost beheaded. There must have been a deep rift between the two brothers. Otherwise, he would not have been forced to this point. He wants to kill your child, perhaps just to get revenge. But keeping you under control will be of great use to him. ”

Ai Yan was silent for a moment and said, "Actually, I have always been defenseless. ”

"I know." Xuan Yunzi said, "But have you forgotten your father-in-law, Fu Nian, how did he raise an army against the Tang Dynasty?" Have you forgotten that Gu Lulu and Yuan Zhen were back then, why did they take such a big risk to take you back from Youzhou? - Your bloodline and identity are the most eye-catching banner on the grassland. Perhaps, before his death, he still fantasized about following Fu Nian's actions back then and breaking away from the khanate? ”

"It's not impossible." Ai Yan said, "Yuan Zhen once told me that Mo Si is brave and fierce but not treacherous; He is treacherous and gloomy, and his ambitions are not small. ”

"Now you know what to do." Xuan Yunzi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Do you want me to accompany you?" ”

Ai Yan wrinkled his eyebrows and pondered for a moment, then said, "My slave girls are dead. You can dress up like them and follow me. ”

Xuan Yunzi nodded with a smile, squatted down to face the little boy, and said, "Your name is Ashina 61 Krakus, right?" ”

"No one can call me by name but my mother!" The little boy raised his eyebrows and glared, looking very vicious.

"Listen, Krakus!" Ai Yan said in a deep voice: "Now there is one more person, I can call you by your name." Not only that, but she can also beat you and scold you like your mother! Listen to what she says! ”

"Why?" The little boy looked up and asked.

"Get on your knees!" Ai Yan suddenly shouted.

The little boy trembled blankly and did not move.

"I say, get on your knees!"

The little boy hurriedly fell to his knees.

"Kowtow."

The boy kowtowed.

Xuan Yunzi stood up and looked at Ai Yan in amazement.

"The steppe people respect their mothers and their teachers the most. Now, Ashina Krakus is already your student, your child. Aiyan said, "I will beg you to stay and help me discipline him and help him." Let him survive, so that he can one day become the real king of the grassland! ”

"Meet the teacher! Meet the Teacher! Meet the Teacher! The little boy was very well-behaved, kowtowing and shouting.

"Get up!" Xuan Yunzi bent down, helped the little boy up from the ground, reached out, wiped the dirt from his forehead, and stared at him.

"The teacher is so good-looking." The little boy grinned, "Just as good-looking as my mother!" ”

Xuan Yunzi couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then smiled.

"A virtue with that stinky man!" Ai Yan slapped the little boy on the head and shouted, "Don't talk to the teacher like this!" Respect your teacher, you know? ”

"Oh!" The little boy hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed again.

"Okay, okay, no need." Xuanyunzi hurriedly grabbed him, hugged him in his arms, and said, "In Turkic language, carat means huge, and Kusi means eagle totem, right?" ”

Aiyan and the little boy both nodded.

Xuan Yunzi stroked the little boy's hair and said, "From today onwards, the teacher will teach you to learn some Han things. Then the teacher will give you a Han name, as long as the three of us know this name. All right? ”

"Okay!"

Xuan Yunzi smiled slightly, "Then it's called, Xue Shenying!" ”

"It's not going to work." Ai Yan immediately retorted, "Even if it follows the surname of your teacher, it is better than the surname Xue!" ”

The little boy blinked, "Xue Shenying is quite nice." ”

"I'm talking to your teacher, and you're not allowed to interject!" Ai Yan scolded angrily, and then said to Xuan Yunzi, "Such a name is a hidden danger in itself. ”

Xuan Yunzi nodded and smiled: "But he, sooner or later, he will need a Chinese name." ”

Ai Yan hesitated for a moment and said, "Then we'll just call him Krakus." Don't mention his Chinese name! ”

"Yes," Xuan Yunzi said, "as long as we know in our hearts that he still has a Chinese name." ”

Ai Yan was silent and stopped talking.

Xuan Yunzi knew that she had acquiesced. Just like Yuenu said, Ai Yan is a woman with a knife mouth and a tofu heart. In her heart, she definitely still hopes that her child can be surnamed Xue. Otherwise, with her personality, there is absolutely no possibility of acquiescence.

"Xue Shenying?" The little boy smiled and said to himself, "What a nice name!" ”

"Don't say it, otherwise you won't have mutton to eat for a month!" Aiyan glared at Krakus angrily, then turned and walked towards the back room.

The little boy hugged Xuanyunzi's neck and whispered in her ear: "Teacher, don't be afraid, in fact, my mother is very good." Also, if she is fierce during the day, she will secretly cry at night, so pitiful! ”

Xuan Yunzi hugged the little boy tightly, and sighed in his heart: Xue Shao, you really should listen to what your son said!
