Gou was a member of the imperial family in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 134 Unexpected results

"Are you the Ming boy who stole Bieqixin?" Ashi Temur stared at Zhu Shenzhui and asked.

"Abu!" Without waiting for Zhu Shenzhui to answer, Tana hugged Ashe Temur's arm and shook it twice in a coquettish manner.

After taking a look at his daughter beside him, Ashil Timur's cold eyes softened instantly, but when he looked at Zhu Shenzhui again, his eyes remained cold and stern.

Ashil Timur was very upset that the daughter he had raised for more than ten years was suddenly stolen by a man, especially when this man was a Ming Dynasty man.

"Taiji, although it may be presumptuous, I still want to ask you to agree to my marriage with Tana." Zhu Shenzhui stepped forward, put his right hand on his chest and saluted Ashitemur, and said sincerely.

With a cold snort, Ashe Timur asked back: "Why do you think I will agree to you?"

"Abu!" Tana was about to say something, but Ashitemur glared at her. This girl was becoming more and more lawless. As his daughter, the Beqi of the tribe, she actually fell in love with a young Ming man he just met, and they even slept together?
Although the Mongols didn't care about these things, he would lose face if this matter got out. Besides, the other party was from the Ming Dynasty, not the Mongols. The Ming Dynasty and Mongolia had been fighting for so many years. Even though the relationship between the two sides had eased a lot and they even formed an alliance because of the Later Jin, they couldn't really become one family.

Even now, frictions of varying sizes still exist between the Ming Dynasty and Mongolia, especially along the Great Wall. Whether it is Mongolia or the Ming Dynasty, it is common for dozens or even hundreds of people to rob each other while the other is not paying attention. As a Taiji, how could he not know about this?

He gave Tana a warning look, and Tana had to swallow the words that were about to come out of her mouth. She sat beside her father with a pout, a little angry, and looked at Zhu Shenzhui with expectation and trepidation.

"Because I like Tana and Tana likes me too." Zhu Shenzhu answered frankly.

"Just because you like her?" Ashe Temur sneered: "My Tana is the most beautiful flower in the tribe. There are as many young men who like her on this grassland as there are stars in the sky. You are just a Ming person. Even if Tana likes you, why should I marry Tana to you?"

"Respected Taiji, people are different. Although I am a Ming Dynasty person, I can give Tana happiness that no one else has." Zhu Shenzhui said neither arrogantly nor humbly.

"Tana is my daughter and also the Beggar of the tribe. In the tribe, I can give her whatever she wants." said Ashitemur.

"You are right. Your power and status can make Tana live a rich life, but you forgot one thing. Apart from these things, what does Tana really want? Inner happiness, true happiness, and a different future? I can bring all these to Tana, but on the grassland, who else can bring them to her except me?"

After a pause, Zhu Shenzhui continued, "What's more important is her own thoughts and her choice. You are her father. There is no father who doesn't want his child to be happy. What do you think?"

"Hmph, the people of the Ming Dynasty who are only good at talking..." Ashe Temur muttered to himself. The Mongols were straightforward and did not have the energy to think so much. When it came to debate, the Mongols were not as good as the people of the Ming Dynasty. What's more, Zhu Shenzhui was not an ordinary Ming Dynasty person.

He already knew Zhu Shenzhu's true identity. He was surprised and secretly shocked that Zhu Shenzhu was a member of the Ming royal family. Before meeting Zhu Shenzhu, he had asked Burigude to find out how he knew Zhu Shenzhu, how they cooperated, and even how he knew Tana.

Of course, Ashi Temur did not tell Burigude about Zhu Shenzhu's identity. As a Taiji, he knew very well that the fewer people who knew about this kind of thing, the better. Even his own nephew could not know everything.

The reason why he wanted to know all this was that Ashe Timur wanted to thoroughly understand what was going on between Tana and Zhu Shencui. As a tribal leader and as a father, Ashe Timur was always vigilant. If he could not ensure that Zhu Shencui really loved his daughter, or had no other thoughts about interacting with his tribe, he would never feel at ease.

Ashi Temur's voice was not loud, and Zhu Shenzhu, who was far away, did not hear clearly what he said. Just when he showed a puzzled expression and wanted to ask, Ashi Temur waved his hand and said: "What you said is meaningless to us Mongolians. What we Mongolians admire most is the strong. You are a Ming person. If I hand Tana to you, what ability do you have to protect her?"

Zhu Shenzhu thought for a moment, then bowed and said, "Respected Taiji, I think I can not only bring happiness to Tana, but I also have enough ability to protect her. I can guarantee this."

"Okay!" Zhu Shencui's words made Ashil Timur raise his eyebrows. He was waiting for Zhu Shencui to answer like this.

Immediately, Asitimur shouted outside: "Go! Call Morigen!"

When Tana, who was smiling just now, heard that Ashitemur was going to call Morigen, her face suddenly changed and she hurried to stop him.

"Child, if a man can't even protect his own woman, how can I trust you to him? Don't worry, Mo Rigen knows how to handle things. I just want to see his courage and guts."

Knowing Tana's worries, Ashitemur gently patted his daughter's hand twice and gave her a reassuring look.

But even so, Tana was still worried and looked at Zhu Shenzhui anxiously.

Zhu Shencui was still as calm as before, standing there waiting quietly. After a moment, a strong Mongolian man walked into the yurt. When he entered the door, even though Zhu Shencui was prepared, he couldn't help but frowned slightly.

This Mongolian man was burly and strong. He was very tall, about 1.9 meters tall. Standing there he was like an iron tower, giving people a sense of invisible pressure.

After entering, Morigen went forward to greet Ashitemur and Tana, then stood up and looked at Zhu Shenzhui, grinning at him. It was obvious that Morigen was a strong and powerful guy, with white teeth showing when he grinned, and his eyes looked at him with a bit of excitement and bloodthirstiness, which frightened Zhu Shenzhui secretly.

"Since you said you have the ability to protect Tana, then show me your actual actions. This is Morigen, the bravest warrior in my tribe. As long as you can hold out for thirty breaths under his hands, I will personally hand Tana over to you."

After saying this, Mo Rigen laughed even more happily, and looked at Zhu Shenzhui and licked his lips, his expression like a hungry wolf encountering a weak lamb. But Tana was worried, her hands couldn't help but twisted together, and tears welled up in her eyes.

She knew Morigen very well. Just as her father had said, Morigen was the bravest warrior in the tribe. He was so strong that he could tear apart even a lone wolf on the grassland with his bare hands. Facing the strong guys in the tribe, it was easy for Morigen to deal with three or five of them with his bare hands.

Although Zhu Shencui was not as weak as the ordinary Ming people, Tana had personally felt Zhu Shencui's strong physique, but compared with Morigen, the two were not in the same league when standing together.

Morigen was over 1.9 meters tall, weighed over 200 kilograms, and was as strong as a bear. Zhu Shenzhui was a head shorter than Morigen, and his figure didn't look very impressive. When the two of them were together, it was like an adult facing a weak child. How could they fight with such a big gap?

Not to mention thirty breaths, even three breaths might not be enough for Zhu Shenzhui. For a moment, Tana panicked and was about to say no. Even if she couldn't be with Zhu Shenzhui, she couldn't watch Zhu Shenzhui and Morigen compete. What if Zhu Shenzhui was beaten to death by Morigen by mistake?
"Bare-handed or with weapons?" Just as Tana was about to speak, Zhu Shenzhui asked this question first.

"Just go with your bare hands. It's not appropriate to use knives or guns here." Ashe Temur said calmly.

"Okay!" Zhu Shenzhui nodded in agreement.

"You...!" Tana was anxious and was about to shout to stop, but Zhu Shenzhui grinned at her. She didn't know why, but when she saw Zhu Shenzhui's smile, she felt a sense of calm and peace of mind, as if Zhu Shenzhui didn't take Morigen in front of him seriously.

This is not right! No matter how you look at it, Zhu Shenzhui is definitely not a match for Mo Rigen, but why does Zhu Shenzhui have such confidence? Tana was puzzled, but she swallowed the words that were on her lips.

He took off his outer smock and wore shorts underneath. Zhu Shenzhui moved around on the spot, stretched his muscles, then looked at Mo Rigen standing aside and smiled at him.

"bring it on!"

"Hey hey hey!"

Mo Rigen showed his white teeth, grinned, and rushed towards Zhu Shenzhui without saying a word. In his opinion, Zhu Shenzhui was not his opponent at all. Apart from other things, with the difference in physique and strength between the two, he didn't need any moves at all, and could easily knock Zhu Shenzhui down by just rushing over.

Even if Zhu Shenzhui dodged this move, it would not matter. Morigen was a good wrestler. He could get close to Zhu Shenzhui and grab him at any part of his body. Zhu Shenzhui would have no power to fight back with his wrestling skills.

Morigen rushed towards Zhu Shenzhui like a powerful tank. Seeing this, Tana couldn't help but screamed with her hands covering her mouth. At the same time, the corners of Asitemur's mouth curved upward, as if he had anticipated that Zhu Shenzhui would scream and be knocked away by Morigen in the next step.

Zhu Shenzhui focused his energy and concentration, staring at Morigen's figure, standing still without any evasion or panic, as if he was suddenly frightened by Morigen's powerful momentum. Just when Morigen was about to approach Zhu Shenzhui, he suddenly moved when he saw Zhu Shenzhui was about to be knocked away.

His body shook suddenly at an extremely fast speed, so fast that even Ashil Timur could not see how Zhu Shenzui dodged for a moment.

Zhu Shenzhui was so close, he actually dodged Morigen's determined attack, and he twisted his body against Morigen's left arm and dodged. This result surprised everyone, but Morigen was not impatient, he had a backup plan. It would be best if this attack could knock Zhu Shenzhui away, but it would not matter if he could dodge it, as long as he made a move and grabbed any part of Zhu Shenzhui's body, Zhu Shenzhui would not be able to escape the result of defeat.

A smile appeared on Morigen's face. Morigen reacted quickly. He immediately retracted his body after hitting the air. He stretched out his left hand and grabbed Zhu Shenzhui's shoulder with his palm as big as a palm leaf fan. This grab was as fast as lightning. As long as he grabbed it firmly, Zhu Shenzhui would be finished.

In an instant, Morigen's palm was on Zhu Shenzhui's shoulder, and then he would use wrestling skills to throw Zhu Shenzhui out. By then, Zhu Shenzhui would definitely not be able to resist at all, and Morigen was absolutely confident of this.

But who would have thought that just as he was about to exert force, Morigen suddenly felt his left arm go numb, as if hit by an electric current. It felt like the whole arm was not his own and he couldn't exert any strength at all.

Although his fingers had already touched Zhu Shenzhui's shoulders, he had lost all his strength. His big hand, like a palm-leaf fan, was as soft as a gentle wave, as if it was helping Zhu Shenzhui to brush away the dust on his shoulders.

Mo Rigen thought to himself that something was wrong and didn't understand what was going on, but he reacted quickly. He quickly turned around and was about to use his intact right hand to grab Zhu Shenzhui again to prevent Zhu Shenzhui from dodging his inevitable move.

But the next scene shocked everyone. Just as Morigen was about to follow Zhu Shenzhu's movements and turn left, and just when he raised his right hand, Morigen's whole body shook as if he had been electrocuted. Then his movements stiffened and his tall body suddenly bent down involuntarily.

With a muffled groan, he slowly bent down and knelt like a big shrimp. His face was pale, beads of sweat the size of beans instantly seeped out of his forehead. He gasped for breath and was unable to utter a word.
