Chapter 13 four

Shanai left Baili Village the next night, and secretly sneaked back to Jieshi City according to his prior agreement with Timur and Aya.As for Timur, he rest assured that Aya will take care of him. After Shanai left, Timur cooperated with the doctor's treatment in a more proactive manner. Even if he rejoined the bone, he would never groan. His will made the doctor admire. Under the doctor's careful treatment, Timur could get out of bed soon. He visited the villagers of Baili Village with a cane. When his right leg became stronger, he lost the cane.He limped on one leg and followed the doctor into the mountains to collect medicine, and taught the village children riding horses and archery with his hand with two broken fingers.He is so kind and full of life to everyone.This is the strangest thing about Timur. Once he shows kindness and kindness, he will have a wonderful attraction to those around him, even though he can no longer walk like a normal person. The young man with one leg has become the most popular guest of the villagers in Baili Village.

After Shanai left, a month has passed and there is still no news.Aya misses him, but Timur firmly believes that Shanai will come back safely. During Shanai's absence, Timur completely recovered from his injury.Although he changed from a healthy person to a cripple after recovering from the injury, and two fingers on his right hand were broken, he always laughed.He told Aya more than once that he was glad that he survived, as long as he was alive, even if his body was disabled, he could still become a great person.It is with such confidence that he faces life and blows. Aya sometimes even feels that Timur's self-confidence is like a spring poured into Haizi, and the spring water is constantly flowing and surging.

Timur, as always, enjoyed bickering with Aya.On the one hand, Aya is often pissed off by him, but on the other hand, she understands that it is his kindness. Timur just wants to use this method to ease her worries about Shana.The longer she spends alone with Timur, the more Aya feels that Timur is a very contradictory person. He has strange thinking and different codes of conduct from ordinary people. He is selfish, cunning, suspicious, and ruthless. At the same time, He is also generous, trusts and loves his friends, and has a clear understanding of world affairs.These diametrically opposed personalities are concentrated in one person, which can't but make Aya's brain that doesn't like to think at a loss.

Aya is as glad that she did not marry Timur as Timur was glad that she did not die. If she really got her wish back then, her life now would be worse than death. Looking back, Shanai is still the most suitable for her.Shana's personality is simple and transparent, just like her. Living with such a person, Aya at least feels that she is not tired. The day Shana came back was very sudden. At that time, Timur and Aya were sitting on the stone at the door chatting, Timur asked Aya: "How many children do you plan to give Shana?" Aya and Shanai gave birth to a son in the second year of their marriage, but the son died before half a year old. Since then, Aya has never been pregnant.Aya was still young when she gave birth, and as time went by, she no longer felt sad about it.

At this time, she heard Timur ask her this inexplicably, she thought for a while, and replied lazily: "Four, four is the best." "Four? Why four?" "I want two sons, two daughters." "Isn't it good to have more?" "How many more can you help me raise?" "Why do you want me to raise your child?" "I don't think it's troublesome. Four is almost enough. No matter how few, one son and one daughter are fine." "Then let Shana work hard. I said Aya, your Shana, is he not good?" "What doesn't work?"

"You do not understand?" "Understand what?" "Fortunately, you are still someone else's wife, and you have given birth to a son, so you don't even understand the meaning of 'no'." Timur intentionally said "no" in a weird way, and Aya understood. "You can't. Didn't you just have a son?" She retorted. "I'm different. I'm afraid that Shanai will marry no one in this life except you. As for me, I can marry as many women as I want, so I can have as many sons as I want. Anyway, I won't bother you."

"How can there be so many princesses from the 'Golden Family' for you to marry?" "I can't afford to have more princesses in the 'Golden Family'. One or two would be fine. The blood of Genghis Khan is flowing on her body, and she is a true princess. Such a woman is my dream partner. Although I will not have only one wife, I can promise to love her for the rest of my life. Just like Genghis Khan still respects and loves his wife Bortie after having so many concubines." "Wife? I see, you are talking about Mrs. Yunna." "Wrong. She is a woman from the 'Golden Family', but she is not a princess."

"But if you want to marry the princess, will she agree?" "This kind of thing can't be left to her." "Don't you love her? She gave birth to your son, don't you love your son very much?" "Two different things. In any case, I will never allow a woman to interfere in my affairs." "You're horrible. Thankfully..." "Fortunately what? I'm lucky that I don't want to marry you?" "Yes. Changshengtian was kind enough to me and didn't let me fall into the sea of ​​suffering. If I really married you that year, I might as well let me die."

"Are you talking ironically? You should say that, if I married you that year, it would be better to let me die in Sistan this time." Aya stared at Timur with staring eyes, stared for a while, and muttered angrily: "Anyway, Shanai is better than you." "Really? Well, just say yes. Let me tell you one more thing." "what?" "Your good man is back." "what?" "Ah what? Like a fool. You look back, your Shana is back." Aya turned around sharply. Yes, it was Shanai, Timur did not lie to her.From a distance, she saw Shana riding a horse, galloping towards them, and behind Shana, there were dozens of horsemen following closely.

Aya cheered excitedly, and ran towards Shana with her hands open.She ran fast, and Timur stayed motionless in his place and looked at her. He suddenly remembered the past when Shanai was troubled by Aya's thick waist and big butt, and a smile appeared on his face. Shanai also saw Aya, he raised his whip on the horse and shouted happily: "Aya." Aya didn't speak, and ran to Shana panting.Shanai reined in his mount and stretched out his hand to pull Aya onto the horse's back.Aya hugged his waist from behind him. "Why did you come back?" she asked panting. Shanai swung his whip, causing the mount to trot. "Missing me?" He asked Aya.

"nonsense!" "I miss you too. I can't help it. I've encountered some things and I'm sorry. By the way, how is Timur? Has his injury healed?" "Oh, it's all right, but his fingers are dead and his legs are limping." "I figured it out. The doctor said that, didn't he? Tell me, is he having a hard time these days? Has he lost his temper?" "That's not true. I see that he is happy every day, talking and laughing with everyone. He also rides a horse. The boys here compete with him in horseback riding, and no one can beat him. Do you think it's strange, Timu My son was very serious before, but he seems to be a different person after healed up this time. He is kind and amiable. He is full of spring breeze every day. The villagers in Baili Village like him very much. They often send us some pear pulp and preserved fruit. Some people killed him. Sheep, also send us a hind leg. When we were alone, he would imagine to me what would happen to him in the future, and what he said was so serious that people felt that he could really become the second Genghis Khan.” "Maybe." "what?" "That's his ideal." "It won't be exactly the same, will it?" "Of course it's impossible to be exactly the same, but besides him, who else would dare to think so?" "Too." Shanai and Aya were talking, and they were already in front of Timur. Shanai and Aya jumped off the horse, and Timur came over and hugged Shanai. "Tamerlane, are you alright?" "Okay, I'm fine. God bless you, you're finally back. If you don't come back, your Ayafei will annoy me to death." Aya said angrily: "I annoy you? It's you who annoy me." "You see, she does this every day." Shana smirked helplessly.He didn't dare to say anything about these two people, and he couldn't afford to offend either of them, so he could only talk about things: "Timer, this time I'm going back..." Timur interrupted him: "I saw you brought more than ten people, who are they?" Shanai looked back at the people he had brought.They stopped fifty paces away, waiting for Shanai to mention them to Timur. "Timer, do you still remember Aiku?" "Aiku? Let me think about it. Isn't he... By the way, isn't he the head of the bodyguard of Sraz Khan? It is said that he is outstanding in martial arts, proficient in rhythm, and is very loyal to Sraz Khan." "Yes, that's him." "What? Is he here too?" "Here we come, the young man at the head is." "I recognized him. But why did they come with you?" "It's a long story. Let me put it simply, something happened to the court." "problem occurs?" "Yes. After we escaped, Hazhan knew that Sraz Khan no longer trusted him, so he planned to kill Sraz Khan under the pretext of revenge. In fact, he wanted to seize Khan's position and call himself Khan. However, Aiku escaped. Organized an army to fight against Hazhan, both sides won and lost each other, and the Khan Palace changed hands several times. Just when Aiku and Hazhan were in a stalemate, your uncle Haji saw an opportunity and sent troops from Jieshi City to attack Hazhan, in the end, Hazhan was defeated and captured, and Haji ordered him to be beheaded." "What? Haji killed Hazhan? Is the news true?" "really." "What about Yunna? Where's my son?" "You don't have to worry, they are fine. Although Hazhan is dead, my father-in-law Shahai surrounded Hazhan's mansion first, found Mrs. Yunna and Jihanjar, and protected them. Haji read Yunna It’s his niece and daughter-in-law, but Hanjar is his grand-nephew, so it’s kind of lenient for them and allowed them to live in the camp in Shahai. I’ve already met them when I go back this time.” Timur breathed a sigh of relief, he no longer had to worry about his son and wife, and his mind was quickly calculating the possible benefits this incident might bring to him.However, thinking that he was already a polished commander, he was a little discouraged. "According to you, it is Haji who controls the situation in Samarkand now." "no." "No? What do you mean?" "That's right. Husin heard that Haji killed his grandfather, and sent troops from Afghanistan to drive Haji back to Jieshi City. Of course, Husin wanted to be the new master of Samarkand, but Samarkand headed by Aiku Most of the defending generals refused to accept him, and these people tried their best to instigate a mutiny among the soldiers. On the night when Kusin held a banquet, he was almost killed by the mutinous soldiers. He was afraid and was forced to withdraw from Samarkand and return to his territory.” "and then?" "Kushin and Haji were driven away, and there was no leader in Samarkand. Aiku discussed with the generals and agreed that you were forced to flee to help Sraz Khan regain power. In this regard, they admire your loyalty. In addition , They believe that in Samarkand, which is full of dangers, only you are outstanding and courageous, and they are the most suitable leader. So they sent people to inquire about you, and they even asked my father-in-law, Shihai. My father-in-law knows Ai Ku quite well, and he knows that he is a man who promises everything, since he sincerely supports you, my father-in-law agreed to the person he sent, and will try to inform him as soon as there is any news about us." "I understand. After you saw Shi Hai, Shi Hai asked you to find Aiku in Samarkand and tell him my hiding place." "That's right. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come back after walking for so long." "I have almost figured out the whole story, you go and ask Ai Ku to come over." "yes." Not long after Shana left, he came back with Aiku.Aiku Shili had met Timur, and Timur returned the salute and looked at him carefully. Aiku was a tall young man with sharp eyes and quick movements. Timur had met Aiku before but had no relationship with him. At this time, Aiku was standing in front of him. The heroism peculiar to this young man of his own age moved and infected him. Timur asked Aiku to sit down and talk.Aiku refused, he was not very polite and didn't like to make detours, he asked bluntly: "Excuse me, are your legs able to walk?" "Can." "Since you can walk, riding a horse is even less of a problem?" "certainly." "Well, since you can ride a horse, I have brought a horse. Please get on the horse immediately and return to Samarkand with me." "Oh? Immediately?" "Yes, without further delay. Shanai must have told you about the situation in Samarkand just now. Now, everyone is in doubt and needs someone as strong as you to go back and clean up the mess. I think you will definitely not There's a lot to pack, right?" "I don't have anything. However, I have been recuperating in Baili Village for so long, so I have to say goodbye to the villagers. Or..." "It's urgent. Please don't think about these mother-in-law matters." "I can't ignore what should be considered. How about this, Shana, you go to the doctor's place for me and tell him that my family has found me and there is an emergency at home. I have to leave immediately, and there is no time to say goodbye to him. His Ende, I will keep it in my heart and report back later." "understood." Shanai led the horse and was about to leave when Aya ran to him: "I'll go with Shanai." "No, you help me pack my things. Shana will come after us after delivering the message. If you have anything to say, it won't be too late to tell Shana on the way." Aya looked at Shanai reluctantly.Timur urged Aya: "Hurry up!" Aya turned her head and glared at him, then dawdled back to the house.The two men looked at her strong back and at each other, smiling at each other.
