Chapter 51 two

The news that Ulugh Beg was rescued by Aiku and others quickly reached Khalil's ears.Although Omar refused to send troops before, and instead defected to Harleh's fourth uncle Shahru, after planning, Haril still won more with less and defeated Pi'er.At this time, Khalil had just captured Pi Er and was proud of his brilliant victory. This amazing news was like a bucket of ice water pouring down from his head, making his joy vanish in an instant. Shocked and furious, Khalil ordered to return to his division. I can't help worrying about the safety of Princess Oeira, but the princess is always like a calm lake with no waves.On the day when it was confirmed that Ulugh Beg was out of danger, the princess suddenly told me that she wanted to eat silver fruit bread.I went back to Cethia's Cave to retrieve the last bag of silver fruit flour.The princess bakes bread like no other. She does not need my help. From kneading dough to fermenting to ingredients and baking, she does every process by herself.When we finally brought more than a dozen steaming, fruity silver fruit breads to the dining room, Khalil and several wolf-like guards forced his way into Orlinburg and appeared in front of us.

Seeing Haril, the princess was not surprised at all. A gentle smile appeared on her face, and she kindly invited Haril to taste the bread together. To my surprise, Khalil accepted the princess' invitation.He sat down at the table, picked up the bread, broke off a piece, and put it in his mouth.The princess asked me to pour tea, and Khalil said, "Eating this bread while it's warm really makes your lips and teeth more fragrant." He waved his hand, signaling all the guards who came with him to go out and wait.The princess fetched a plate, put two pieces of bread on the plate, and asked the guards to take out each to taste a piece, so as to satisfy their hunger.For the guards, silver fruit bread is an incomparable delicacy that only exists in legends. They never thought that they would be lucky enough to enjoy it in this life. They looked at each other with surprise, joy and gratitude on their faces.

Khalil also seemed surprised, but he didn't say anything.Judging by his appearance, he was not in a hurry to speak, he just looked at the princess thoughtfully, sipping his tea and eating his bread with relish. My heart was beating fast, like beating a drum, and my hands were shaking, with a thin layer of cold sweat dripping from my palms.I thought, since Khalil came prepared, shouldn't a silver fruit bread be able to impress him?If he intends to harm the princess, what should I do?what can i doAm I capable of protecting the princess?If he throws the princess into prison, I will definitely accompany the princess... But if he wants to kill the princess, should I poison the tea and let him die first?It is not difficult to poison him, but the question is, will the princess allow me to do so?And, am I doing it right?I... my thoughts were rambling, and suddenly, I found Khalil staring at me with an incomprehensible smile on his lips.I don't know if this is my suspicion, but his smile disgusts me.

Khalil put down his teacup and said to me, "Ceccia, pour me some tea!" Khalil is now King Khalil, and he is no longer the naughty boy I used to play with when I was a child.I didn't dare to disobey his order, so I obediently poured him a cup of tea and put it by his hand. His appetite was good and I saw him pick up the second loaf.I felt a pang of pain when I thought that such a precious silver fruit bread should be his—not Shahru’s or Ulugh Beg’s, but Khalil’s—tea. Khalil seemed to be prolonging his torment, and was in no hurry to mention his purpose for coming.When he finished the second silver fruit bread and Princess Oeira poured tea for him in person, he wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief and asked inadvertently, "Princess, am I not here in Samarkand?" You must have worked hard for a while, right?"

Princess Oeira didn't answer right away.Khalil's peace is the beginning of a call to justice, and even I can hear the sting in his words. Khalil kept staring at the princess, with a half-smile still on his face. "Princess, I thought that when I returned to Samarkand, I would never have the chance to drink tea and chat with you again." "Do you think so?" "Yes. If I were the princess, don't you think so?" "I like Samarkand. There is a home given to me by King Timur here." "So, what about Harley? Don't you like Harley?"

"I heard from Shah Ruh that Harleh's local conditions and customs are similar to those of Samarkand, as prosperous and beautiful as Samarkand. I don't know if I will still have the opportunity to visit there when I am alive." "While alive? I don't understand, what do you mean by that..." "It's just a metaphor. After all, the road to Halle is too far away from me." "Yes, a weak woman like you can't bear the fatigue of the journey. You really don't have a strong physique like me or Ulugh Beg." "Khalil, I'm sorry."

"Oh? I'm sorry? How do you say this, please tell the princess clearly." "That day, I asked you to let me see Ulugh Beg. You agreed, but you didn't keep your promise. Your slip of the tongue made me worry that you would eventually hurt him, so I secretly persuaded Aiku and some others to ask them for help. Rescue Ulugh Beg from prison. I know that I will not get your forgiveness if I do this. So, I have been waiting to bear the anger in your heart." Khalil was completely dumbfounded. He might have thought that Princess Oeira would deny, justify, and cover up, but he never thought that Princess Oeira would not deny, defend, or cover up, on the contrary, she confessed everything in a candid manner.Beyond that, she made it clear that she would willingly accept whatever punishment he threw at her, including death.She was willing to die to repay what she owed him.

What kind of woman is this! She is as pure as spring water and as unfathomable as the sea.She made his fearless character look like a curly Persian knife in front of her, and she didn't know how to use it at all. Princess Oela gently wrapped Haril's hands.This movement of hers came naturally to her, who had always thought of Khalil as a child. However, this gentle gesture was clearly a surprise to Khalil.I saw his hands tremble, and his body trembled slightly. He pursed his lips, looked into Princess Oeira's deep eyes, and didn't say a word for a long time.The princess sincerely asked him: "Khalil, let me give you this life on behalf of Ulugh Beg. To be honest, I am very scared. I often dream of you, Omar, Ji Hansa, and Pi My son, Shah Ruh, I dreamed that you were killing each other. Such a dream is too scary, and I would rather you help me end everything."

Khalil seemed to have been slapped severely with something, and suddenly withdrew his hand, covering his eyes. "you……" "Khalil, please." "Stop talking!" "I……" "You don't need to say it, please don't say it anymore. I know, I know, in your heart, you must hope that Shaharu wins more, right? He is you...you...the person you value the most." The princess hesitated for a moment, but did not deny it. Khalil is right, and it is.If one of the descendants of the powerful Timur king must inherit the throne, she hopes that this person is Shah Ruh.She believed in Shah Ruh's talent, wisdom and kindness. The huge empire left by King Timur needed a peace-loving monarch like Shah Ruh to govern.At this point, she always believed that Shah Ru was stronger than anyone, including Khalil.

Khalil understood the meaning of the princess' silence.After a long time, he stood up: "Princess," his voice was hoarse, "I should go." "Huh? Now? You haven't done anything yet." "You're so stubborn. Don't you want it to go this way?" "No. I'm just a little surprised." "It would be my pleasure to surprise you. However, I have one request." "ask?" "Yes. Princess, I want to take Cecia into the palace." "Take Cecia into the palace? Why?" "I'm going to marry the new concubine, and I want Cecia to design a unique jade bracelet for my bride. This is also the bride's wish."

"I see. Congratulations, Khalil!" "Save your congratulations until I get married. At that time, I will definitely accept it. Princess, there is one thing I hope you will keep in mind..." "what?" "You have to live to witness who among the few of us is the final victor. If something happens to you, I will let Cecia accompany you." "My God! Khalil..." "Don't forget my words. I am my grandfather's grandson, and like him, I walk the talk." The princess looked at Khalil in surprise, and then at me. She never thought that I would be involved in this matter. If she had known this, she would have persuaded me to leave Samarkand with Ulugh Beg.At this moment, she is obviously extremely regretful, but she doesn't know how happy I am, I am simply ecstatic.For the first time in my life, I am full of sincere gratitude to Khalil, no matter what his purpose is, after all, he helped me dispel the princess' desire to die. The princess saved Ulugh Beg, but she always felt guilty towards Khalil.What's more, she knew very well that if she stayed in Samarkand, she would become Shaharu's concern and concern. I used to be so worried, but now, my heart is much more at ease.I was Khalil's hostage. Could there be a more wonderful outcome in the world?As long as I am in Khalil's hands, the princess will never leave me alone.I don't worry about her leaving Samarkand, what worries me is that she doesn't care about her own life. I walked behind Khalil.When I walked to the door, I turned my back to the princess and said loudly, you have to be good and wait for me to come back!
