Pei Qian stared at Nina for a long time. Then, he seemed to have thought of something and couldn’t help but laugh.
“You’re worrying too much. I’m not that interested in the new Khan of the northern barbarians.” Pei Qian put down the teacup in his hand and sized up Nina for a while before waving his hand to signal Qian He to arrange for someone to feed her medicine.
Although Nina was tied up like a dumpling, the tame head technique she had mastered was too evil, so it was safer to knock her out.
The attack on the Imperial Court went much smoother than expected.
Lu Ze and Pei Qian had no intention of staying long. They only left a portion of their men to cooperate with the envoy who had been arranged to deal with the remaining matters. As for Lu Ze and Pei Qian, they decided to return with Lin Suisui.
After Lin Suisui had cooperated with An Duo for the past two days, she finished what she had to do.
At the very least, to the northern barbarians, her identity as a goddess had been confirmed. Even if she didn’t show her face again, with shaman An Duo running the show, it was enough to keep the situation under control.
“This is the other half of the witchcraft medical scroll I found in the Golden Tent.” After An Duo entered the Golden Tent, he went straight to the sacrificial ground in the Golden Tent and found many good things.
He actually didn’t recognize the words on this sheepskin scroll, but that didn’t stop him from knowing that it was good stuff. Just because he didn’t know it didn’t mean that Lin Suisui didn’t know it either!
After all, he had seen the booklet that Lin Suisui flipped through from time to time.
As it turned out, he had indeed made the right choice. Lin Suisui liked this medical report very much, so she accepted it without hesitation.
When Lin Suisui, Lu Ze, and the others set off for the empire, she had only finished reading a small portion of the medical report. In that case, she wouldn’t be bored along the way.
Lu Ze and Pei Qian took Nina and Heka away. Lu Ze left the matter of dealing with the Siamese Kingdom to Gu Han for him to establish his might.
Before Lin Suisui left, she visited Sr. Khan at Gu Han’s request.
Just as they had expected, Sr. Khan was already on the brink of death. Now, he was only relying on medicine to survive. Even if God descended, he wouldn’t be able to turn the tide.
There was no way to save Sr. Khan, but Zadeh and Consort Molevin could be saved. Over the past two days, with Lin Suisui’s help, the tame head technique and poison were successfully expelled from their bodies. Although it had a huge impact on their bodies, they were saved.
“I haven’t detoxed shaman An Duo’s poison.” In the carriage on the way back, Lin Suisui told Lu Ze about her arrangements when she left. “This person is cunning and ambitious.
If there’s nothing to control him, I’m afraid he’ll cause an irreversible disaster in the next two years.”
Lu Ze nodded. He had no objections to Lin Suisui’s arrangement.
It was naturally good to leave a mole among the northern barbarians, but if they wanted to settle the matter once and for all, it was better to eliminate the root of the problem.
Seeing that Lu Ze had no objections to this arrangement, Lin Suisui took out the booklets from the side and spread them out for Lu Ze to see.
The two of them studied the witchcraft booklet for a while. As the sky darkened, they arrived at the first campsite.
Compared to when they came over in a hurry, the journey back was much smoother.
Pei Qian was already waiting for them outside the camp.
“Nina is quite stubborn. I’ve spent a lot of effort interrogating her these past few days, but she hasn’t relented at all.”
Pei Qian held the wine pot by the bonfire as he looked at Lu Ze, who was slowly flipping the grill beside him. His tone was filled with regret.
“No matter how stubborn she is, can she resist against your methods?” Lu Ze pretended not to hear Pei Qian’s complaint. Of course, he knew that it wasn’t easy to deal with Nina, but this wasn’t troublesome for Pei Qian.
“This isn’t a matter of methods. Didn’t you say that Madam Liu was interested in the tame head technique of Siam?!” Pei Qian took a sip of wine and looked at Lin Suisui, who was sitting at the side. “If I make things too bloody now, it won’t be sightly!”
“Tsk, if you want Suisui to see Nina in advance, just say it. It’s really unlike you to beat around the bush like this, Mr. Pei.”
As Lu Ze argued with Pei Qian, he continued roasting the rabbit. Soon, he handed the roasted rabbit leg to Lin Suisui.
“Nina doesn’t eat, drink, or talk. I’m afraid that a few days later, she’ll really be dead.”
After taking the roasted rabbit from Lu Ze, Pei Qian revealed his worry.
“Then I’ll go see her later!” Lin Suisui was actually very curious about Nina, who she had never met before. Now that there was such an opportunity, she naturally didn’t want to give it up.
With Lin Suisui’s willingness to cooperate, the subsequent arrangements were very smooth.
Ever since Nina was captured, she had never left the iron cage where she was imprisoned. Even when she was fed food and medicine, someone entered the cage and forced them into her mouth.
At this moment, because they were going to bring her out to see Lin Suisui, they tidied her up in advance. When Lin Suisui saw her, Nina wasn’t as disheveled as before.
The disheveled concubine Nina was no longer as arrogant as before. She looked much more haggard and thin. After she was pushed, the heavy shackles and the cartilage powder in her body made it impossible for her to support her weight, so she fell to the ground.
If she wanted to see Lin Suisui and the others clearly, she had no choice but to look up.
Originally, she thought that she would see Pei Qian this time, but she didn’t expect to see two unfamiliar faces. One of them was actually a woman.
“You’re the goddess that those stupid people talked about previously, right?” Nina struggled for a moment and changed into a position that was slightly more comfortable for her. Before Lin Suisui could speak, she voiced her guess.
“I’ve thought about it before.. How could an idiot like Gu Han think of those ideas to target me?! Now, it seems that everything was indeed done by you people from the empire!”
