I married an exasperating eunuch Chapter 83 part 3

Chapter 83 The prayer ceremony (3)

Princess Yatai laughed heartily, “It seems that you also like being a Xi person.”

Chen Hui smiled, “Each has their good things.” What she wanted to be the most was indeed someone from modern times.

“Look at them…,” Princess Yatai pointed, “You have already gained their approval.”

Chen Hui revealed a smile, “That’s great!”

She now only counts on Gu Tianhe to go back and report sooner to Li Youde. Then, start the process to negotiate peace and get her back. Chen Hui couldn’t control the smile on her face when she thought that Li Youde actually sent someone to rescue her.

Seeing the sincere smile on Chen Hui’s face, princess Yatai only took it as if Chen Hui was happy to be approved by the Xi people. She smiled and said, “Is there a man you like?”

Chen Hui almost choked on her saliva, “Master Yatai, what did you say?”

“I asked if there is a man you like here?” Princess Yatai smiled, “I think that you can adapt to the lifestyle of the Xi people very quickly. So, you might as well try this….,” She lowered her head and said at Chen Hui’s ear, “Most of my Xi men are very bold and powerful in bed. I can help you pick two.”

Chen Hui, “….” Pick two…

She suddenly has some regrets. How great would it be if she hasn’t rushed Gu Tianhe back so soon? Wouldn’t she be able to pick him at this time and the two could disappear for a long time without being noticed? However…

Looking at princess Yatai, Chen Hui knew that she was indulging in a fantasy. It was still fine to be blended into the crowd. The moment Gu Tianhe is noticed, his identity would be revealed.

“What kind of men do you like?” Princess Yatai asked enthusiastically when she saw that Chen Hui didn’t refuse and just took it that Chen Hui had agreed.

What kind of men does she like?

More on the thin side, fair skin, not tall nor short, falling as soon as he is pushed, treacherous, cunning, a real vile person who doesn’t keep his word, too proud to admit that he likes her; a reliable man who doesn’t have a lower body that he couldn’t control.

Chen Hui couldn’t help but laugh, shook her head hurriedly and said, “No need, I’m not interested in this kind of thing…”

Princess Yatai stared at Chen Hui for a while. Suddenly she remembered something, sighed, shook her head and said, “Do you still think about that deputy general Chu of yours? Or is it that he is usually too rough that you haven’t gotten the taste for it?”

Please shut up princess Yatai. I kneel before you!

Chen Hui finally understood how embarrassed Li Youde was to be “forced” by her back then.

“Master Yatai, don’t make fun of me anymore…,” Chen Hui busily covered her face with a shy look.

Princess Yatai looked at the lively crowd in front of her and didn’t have the meaning to force Chen Hui anymore. She just smiled casually, “It’s a shame to not try such a beautiful thing.”

Chen Hui let go of the hands covering her face and looked at the beautiful and youthful bodies in front of her with admiration. Slowly, she also began to be stirred up a bit. Try, she would definitely try, but she couldn’t try on them. She has to try on her eunuch…

Gu Tianhe hurried back as fast as he could after leaving the Xi camp and finally returned to Jianbei City within four hours. It was still dark at this moment. Fortunately, someone was waiting for him at the gate. After he whispered something, he was let into the city.

When Li Youde saw Gu Tianhe, he had just been called out of the bed. He wore a casual robe and his hair was fixed randomly with hairpins. He knew that if there was no news, Gu Tianhe wouldn’t have come back overnight. It was just that he didn’t know whether it was good or bad news.

“Lady Chen is safe and sound,” The first sentence that Gu Tianhe said made Li Youde sigh from relief.

However, Gu Tianhe paused slightly afterwards. He hesitated whether he should tell Lord Li about what he saw.

Li Youde lost patience and asked, “Where is she? Why didn’t you bring her back?”

Gu Tianhe’s heart sank and he said with lowered head, “Answering lord, Lady Chen is with the daughter of the Xi leader. She seemed to be forced to put on the clothes of the Xi ethnicity and participate in the prayer ceremony of the Xi ethnicity.”

Li Youde didn’t notice the deliberately ambiguous part of Gu Tianhe’s words and asked in confusion, “Prayer ceremony?” He suddenly remembered the sacrifice of living people in ancient times. His expression changed, “She was treated as a sacrifice?”

Gu Tianhe said, “Lady Chen seemed to be treated as the incarnation of the goddess. She was fine after the ceremony was over.” He had also watched the process of the ceremony and understood after thinking about it.

However, Li Youde didn’t understand. A major event of the country such as offering sacrifices to gods in name of the military affairs, how could they let Lady Chen, a foreign captive be the incarnation of the goddess? It doesn’t make sense!

“She…is getting along with the Xi tribe like a fish back in water?” Li Youde stared at Gu Tianhe when he thought of this possibility.

• Like a fish back in water: glad to be back in one’s proper surroundings

Gu Tianhe couldn’t answer this question. He just stayed there for a short while. He didn’t know everything about Chen hui’s current situation.

“Answering lord, it was Lady Chen who asked this subordinate to come back as soon as possible to pass some words to lord. Presumably, her current situation is not too bad,” Gu Tianhe said.

“Pass some words? She didn’t let you bring her back?” It was unknown what Li Youde thought about. His expression was a bit weird.

Gu Tianhe didn’t notice it and said, “The princess of the Xi tribe watches her strictly. This subordinate is afraid that this subordinate can’t take her away.”

Li Youde sneered and said, “Did she say that the princess of the Xi tribe watches her closely, or did you discover it?”

Gu Tianhe was slightly dumbstruck and recalled briefly, “It was Lady Chen who said…”

“Humph!” Li Youde let out a cold snort, “What words did she let you pass?”

If Lady Chen dared to pretend to be pitiful, lie to him and tell him to consider the overall situation and not save her, he would capture her and give her a harsh beating. He was worried for a whole day in vain that she would suffer in the Xi tribe. He didn’t expect that she was even able to get the favor of those barbarians and even participated in the prayer ceremony. What a great skill!
