Fortunate Young Gentleman

Wanyan Yan looked at Ayi Na and said unconvincedly: "The Han people have a saying, "As long as you work hard, you can grind an iron rod into a needle." Even if he is an iron rod, I can grind it into a needle..."

Ayi Na looked at her, thought for a while, and said: "This sentence is wrong."

Wanyan Yan said: "How can others say something that has been said for hundreds or thousands of years be wrong?"

Ayi Na looked at her and asked: "How does the princess want to grind the eye of the needle?"

Wanyan Yan thought about it, looked at Ayi Na again, pointed to the door, and said: "You get out!"

...

Tang Ning was alone in the tent and closed the door to prevent Wanyan Yan from finding an excuse to come over again.

As long as you work hard, you can grind an iron rod into a needle. The ancient saying is still very reasonable. There are enough wives in the family. Even for his own safety, he must keep himself clean. Except for work, it is best not to have any communication with other opposite sexes.

And now Wanyan Yan's men are unlikely to make any big mistakes.

At this time, ten catties of grain was equivalent to sixteen catties in later generations. In other words, every family that joined Wanyan Yan's personal army could guarantee at least half a catty of rice every day. The strong men of each tribe were here, and this half a catty of rice was enough to make their wives and children live a comfortable life.

They had food and shelter, and they didn't have to worry about their families' food and clothing. As long as Wanyan Yan could always provide them with food, these people would definitely be loyal to her and never have second thoughts.

This move not only united the hearts of Wanyan Yan's own subordinates, but also many discordant voices in the tribes under the eldest prince and the third prince.

It's not the lack of food that is worrying, but the inequality. Everyone surrendered to the Wanyan tribe. Why should other people's Khan distribute food, and their Khan wants food? Obviously, it is much better to follow the fourth princess than the eldest prince and the third prince.

The eldest prince and the third prince no longer dare to collect food from their tribes. After hearing the news that the fourth princess distributed food, their tribes were already demoralized. If they put pressure on them, it is very likely to cause riots.

Tang Ning hoped that the eldest prince and the third prince would do so. The Wanyan tribe was now facing a great enemy. If they caused civil strife again, Wanyan Yan would be able to win easily.

At that time, Tang Ning returned to Beijing in advance to report.

Unfortunately, the eldest prince and the third prince were not stupid. They had been honest these days. Although there were still many dissatisfied voices in their tribes, nothing serious happened.

There were still many prisoners of war from the Chen Kingdom in the hands of the Wanyan tribe. Wanyan Yan had saved them against all odds. This time she wrote to the Khan, wanting to use the prisoners of war from the Chen Kingdom to exchange the grassland prisoners, and she had already received consent.

It was she who saved them at the beginning, and it was also she who asked for the exchange of prisoners now. These people who were exchanged should also belong to her.

The eldest prince made a big fuss about this, but there was no result. Instead, he was scolded by the Khan again. He has been much more honest these days.

Judging from the style of Wanyan Khan, he treated the eldest prince, the third prince, and Wanyan Yan equally, with clear rewards and punishments, regardless of closeness, but only merits and demerits.

No wonder the tribes he conquered were very convinced of him. He must have some courage to unify the Sushen tribe and complete this unprecedented feat.

Judging from his recent decisive actions, he should have decided to determine the inheritance of the next Khan before the threat of the Black Barbarians comes again, and this candidate must be from the eldest prince, the third prince, and Wanyan Yan.

In the eldest prince's tent.

"Why, why!" The eldest prince paced in the tent, his expression furious, and said sternly: "Those are all my people, why should I give them to her!"

"Prince calm down..." Butai stepped forward and persuaded: "The Khan did not investigate the matter of our loss of two tribes, we are lucky..."

"Lucky?" The eldest prince said angrily: "In just one month, her power has surpassed this king. Is this lucky for this king?"

Butai looked at him and said: "Don't forget, eldest prince, no matter how powerful the fourth princess is, she is still a woman. As long as she gets married, these tribes will not be taken back by the Khan?"

"Bullshit!" The eldest prince looked at him and said angrily: "If she doesn't want to get married, can this king force her to marry? ? "

"Why not?" Butai looked at him and said, "The eldest prince is the eldest brother of the fourth princess. The Khan is ill in the tent. Isn't it right for the eldest prince to care about her marriage?"

The eldest prince was a little moved at first, and then said irritably: "She won't listen to me."

Butai said: "The fourth princess won't listen to the eldest prince, but she will always listen to the Khan, right?"

The eldest prince was stunned, looked at him, and asked: "What do you mean..."

Butai stepped forward and said: "The third prince must not want to see the fourth princess's power continue to grow. We can unite with the third prince first..."

After listening to this, the eldest prince's eyes flashed a few times and said: "Just do as you say."

The third prince was in the tent.

The third prince has not been very smooth in recent months. After several twists and turns, his power has been slightly inferior to that of the fourth princess and the eldest prince. If this continues, his voice in the clan will become smaller and smaller, until he completely loses the possibility of becoming Khan.

At this moment, he held a letter in his hand and sneered, "Has Wanyan Chu finally lost his temper?"

A man beside him stepped forward and whispered, "Third Prince, the eldest prince's proposal is worth considering. The fourth princess's momentum of rising is too strong. Only by thoroughly muddying the waters can we have a chance..."

"She really framed me last time..." Thinking of the losses she had suffered these days, Wanyan Yan had gained a lot. The third prince crumpled the letter and said, "She was ruthless first, so don't blame me for being ungrateful!"

...

Wuyan tribe.

Wanyan Yan, who had just learned some news, was angry. She slammed the table and stood up, saying angrily, "Who wants to get married!"

Yesterday, young warriors from more than ten tribes under the command of the eldest prince and the third prince found the Khan at the same time and asked to marry the fourth princess.

The Khan could not ignore the requests of more than ten tribes, and the fourth princess Wanyan Yan had already reached the age of marriage, so the Khan had no suitable reason to refuse.

However, there was only one princess, but there were more than a dozen people who wanted to marry the princess. No matter how many tribes proposed marriage, only one could be chosen in the end. In order to convince the crowd, the Khan proposed a way, that is, to let the warriors of each tribe compete with each other. The most powerful warrior who won in the end could marry the princess.

It was this incident that made Wanyan Yan angry.

Ayina stepped forward and said, "It is obvious that the eldest prince and the third prince planned this in advance. The Khan can't bear the pressure from more than a dozen tribes."

Wanyan Yan waved her sleeves and said, "I don't care. I won't marry anyone anyway!"

Tang Ning walked in from outside and saw Wanyan Yan's angry expression. He was surprised and said, "What's wrong? Why are you so angry?"

Ayina glanced at him and explained the matter.

"What?" Tang Ning's expression froze when he heard it.

If the little girl got married, her tribe would definitely not be able to be saved. If her tribe could not be saved, she would not be able to become Khan. If she did not become Khan, the peace between Chen State and the grassland would become empty talk...

If he could not promote the peace between Chen and Chu, wouldn't his trip to the grassland be in vain?

"This is outrageous!" Tang Ning frowned, slammed the table, and said angrily, "I see who dares to marry you!"
