Chapter 460 The Vast Horizon is My Love
Ji Dan swallowed hard.
This crippled crown prince is truly terrifying.
Following such a monster, one wrong move and you'd be reduced to nothing but bones.
Whether staying with the Xiongnu will be a blessing or a curse remains to be seen.
"Xiang Liang..."
Ji Dan wailed inwardly, "When are you going to take me back?! Waaaaah..."
"What are you still standing there for?" Maodun's icy voice interrupted Ji Dan.
"Yes! I'll go right away!"
Ji Dan snapped out of his daze and immediately accepted the order.
He straightened his Taoist robe, suppressed his fear, put on an inscrutable expression, lifted the curtain, and walked towards the Xiongnu's military tent.
……
at the same time.
On the vast and boundless northern wilderness.
A Qin army of 30,000 men steadily advanced northward.
In the middle and rear of the marching column followed several hundred staggering Xiongnu prisoners.
These were the remnants of soldiers captured in the Battle of Gaoque Pass, now tied together with hemp ropes and being escorted by Qin infantrymen on a difficult journey.
At the front of the prisoner procession was a large carriage pulled by four strong horses.
The carriage was not only decorated with thick black and red cloth, but its wheels and axles had also undergone special shock absorption modifications, making it very stable when traveling on the bumpy grassland.
Outside the carriage, two young men were riding warhorses side by side.
It was none other than Fusu, the eldest son of the Qin Dynasty, and Mofeng.
Mo Feng turned his head, listening to the soft voices faintly coming from inside the carriage, his eyes filled with undisguised envy.
He clicked his tongue, moved closer to Fusu, and muttered in a low voice, "Young master, look at the treatment that immortal master receives!"
"When going out to war, not only do they ride in such a comfortable carriage, but there are also two beautiful maids serving them inside."
Mo Feng felt increasingly sour as he spoke, "I say, General Zhao Ben is really clueless. He sent two stunning twin beauties to the Immortal Master, but why didn't he think of sending you, young master, a bed warmer too?"
Even a hot, wild horse from the grasslands would be fine!
Hearing Mo Feng's unrestrained words, Fu Su was speechless and couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"What kind of nonsense are you thinking about all day long?"
Fusu lightly tapped Mofeng's shoulder with his riding whip and said irritably, "If Zhao Ben really dares to send me a Xiongnu woman, and if my father finds out, the first thing he'll do when he returns to Xianyang is skin Zhao Ben alive!"
Mo Feng scratched his head, somewhat puzzled: "It's just a woman, why are you so angry?"
"You know nothing!" Fusu lowered his voice, his expression becoming extremely serious.
"I am the eldest son of the Great Qin, the future heir to the nation! My bloodline is crucial to the purity of the Qin royal family. If I were to actually take in that 'wild horse of the grasslands' and accidentally become pregnant and give birth, things would completely spiral out of control!"
Fusu continued his analysis: "That child has half the blood of the Qin royal family and half the blood of the Xiongnu. How cunning are the Xiongnu?"
Once they find out about this, they might very well use the child's reputation to loudly proclaim that they also possess the legitimate right to inherit the Chinese lineage!
"At that point, it will no longer be a matter between men and women, but a political disaster!"
If I, Fusu, were to become the true sinner of the Qin Dynasty for all time.
Do you think Zhao Ben would dare to risk the extermination of his entire family?
After listening to Fusu's detailed and insightful analysis of the situation, Mo Feng gasped in shock and involuntarily shrank back.
"My goodness, how could a woman cause such a huge mess..."
Mo Feng looked at Fu Su with pity and sighed, "Being the crown prince is really not easy. He is restricted in every way, and he can't even touch a woman casually!"
Sigh, all things considered, being an insignificant nobody like me is the best. I don't have to worry about worldly affairs no matter which village girl I fancy.
Fusu glared at him, then said helplessly, "Alright, enough nonsense. Keep your voice down!"
Fusu glanced at the soldiers around him. "My whereabouts are absolutely confidential! Apart from a few generals, no one in this army knows my true identity!"
If you can't keep your mouth shut and the lurking Xiongnu spies overhear, attracting assassins, we might both be in danger!
Upon hearing this, Mo Feng immediately covered his mouth with both hands, nodded frantically, and dared not utter another word.
Meanwhile, inside the spacious carriage next to them, a completely different and enchanting scene unfolded.
The interior of the carriage was as spacious as a small room, with thick white wool carpets and a delicate stove in the center to dispel the cold of the northern frontier.
Zhang Fan lay comfortably on a soft couch, his eyes closed, looking relaxed.
"Young master, is this pressure comfortable for you?"
Luo Ying knelt beside Zhang Fan, her two fair and delicate hands gently kneading his shoulders, her voice soft.
On the other side, Luo Li carefully massaged Zhang Fan's legs and occasionally used a small spoon to scoop up the fruit wine next to her and carefully feed it to Zhang Fan's mouth.
"Hmm, not bad, your technique has improved." Zhang Fan hummed in satisfaction.
The tension I had been feeling for days was greatly relieved in this gentle embrace.
In a corner of the carriage, Luan Diyun's hands were tied behind her back with hemp rope, her legs were curled up together, and her back was pressed tightly against the carriage wall.
Listening to Luo Ying and Luo Li's sweet voices and watching their gentle, ambiguous movements, she was practically going crazy!
She, the beloved daughter of the Xiongnu Chanyu and the commander of 60,000 elite troops, has now been reduced to hiding in a corner and being forced to watch this depraved scene!
Luan Diyun turned her head away, her pretty face now flushed red with embarrassment, all the way to her ears.
"You lecherous scoundrel! You shameless scoundrel!"
She cursed wildly in her mind.
She never imagined that she would be sharing a carriage with this bandit general of the Qin army!
This feeling of humiliation from being dependent on others made her feel that every second was an unbearable torment.
However, despite the cursing, Luan Diyun also felt a sense of relief.
Over the past two days, this enemy general has not given her a second glance, let alone touched her, except for having the two maids serve him.
They seemed to genuinely regard her as an insignificant, ordinary female prisoner.
"As long as he doesn't suspect anything, I'll find a chance to escape when the army encounters a crisis..." Luan Diyun secretly plotted in his heart.
Just then, a loud sound suddenly rang out in the quiet carriage!
"The vast horizon is my love, and flowers are blooming at the foot of the rolling green hills..."
The sudden sound startled Luan Di Yun in the corner, making him tremble and almost scream.
She turned her head sharply and saw Zhang Fan calmly taking out a small iron box from his pocket.
And that deafening sound came from inside this metal box!
