Film and Television: The Collector Who Rampages Across the Heavens

Zama landed steadily on the ground, her hands stroking her shapely buttocks, her expression a mixture of shame and anger, glaring at the Wei man on horseback with gritted teeth.

Tell me your name?

"Want revenge? You can wait anytime. I, Yuwen Lixing, will not change my name or surname."

Su Li pointed at her with a riding crop and teased loudly, "Next time you fall into my hands, it won't be as simple as just a few spanks. See you later."

Zama took a deep breath and shouted at him, "Me too! If we met on the battlefield, I would definitely capture you and make you my slave."

Su Li's cheerful voice carried far by the light and wind: "I'm waiting..."

The moon shone brightly that night, and the starry sky was dotted with countless tiny stars. A grand banquet was held on the meadow where royalty and nobility gathered.

Because he had been humiliated by Su Li during the day, Zama specially showed off his superb horsemanship skills in front of everyone tonight, which drew cheers from the entire audience.

"How about it? We Rouran people are born to ride horses. True archery is the key to victory on the battlefield. I have plenty of slaves like you with brute force under my command."

Zama raised her head, her slender and tall figure clad in a golden robe, her long, thin legs encased in riding boots, as she walked up to Su Li with her arms crossed, seemingly deliberately picking a fight.

"There are plenty of women with your looks in my Black Mountain Courtyard. I could have a different one every day."

If he was a slave, then Su Li would treat her like a servant; neither of them feared the other.

"You..." Zama gritted his teeth, his face contorted with anger, and his lips curled into a smirk: "If you're so capable, let's have an archery contest. We'll each have three arrows, and whoever gets hit loses!"

"This is no fun. Let's compare marksmanship. Let's see if your shield is stronger or my gun is stronger, how about it?" Su Li said in a teasing tone with a hint of amusement on his face.

"What gun technique? Explain it clearly!" Zama's delicate and charming face showed a look of confusion. She thought it was some kind of real gun and shield technique!

Su Li leaned close to her ear and whispered something softly...

"You shameless scoundrel!"

Zama blushed deeply, and in her embarrassment and anger, she reached out and slapped the man in front of her.

But Su Li was faster, grabbing her fair wrist with lightning speed, and said with a helpless expression, "If you don't agree, you don't agree, why hit me?"

"You filthy scoundrel!" Zama pointed at the man's nose and cursed through gritted teeth, "I thought you were a man, but who would have thought you could be so shameless."

"A beautiful woman is sought after by a gentleman. How am I shameless? The fact that I'm interested in you, Princess Zama, means you're a stunning beauty too." Su Li brushed past her and said indifferently, "I'm not talking to you anymore. We have nothing in common."

Zama's face flushed slightly with anger, and her tall, tight-fitting clothes rippled slightly. If she weren't outmatched, she would definitely have taught this bastard a lesson.

Su Li returned to his original seat and sat down at the table to drink. He was surrounded by princes and nobles, but Yuwen Yue, Yan Xun, Zhao Xifeng, and others were not there. Both sides were secretly plotting to eliminate each other.

He glanced at the Wei Emperor, who was laughing and joking with his ministers on the throne. The old man had played a part in this, as it would benefit him no matter who died.

Su Li thought to herself: This old guy probably never thought he would mess things up one day.

The next morning, as dawn broke, a large number of princes and nobles, along with Rouran people, stood on horseback in the grassland. With a command from the Wei emperor to begin the hunt, thunderous hooves surged into the forest.

"Hey, let's have another competition to see who hunts more game today!"

Zama rode up to him on a magnificent white horse, calling out excitedly in a sweet voice.

"Not interested!"

He was already in the limelight yesterday, so he's just here to show his support today, since the main characters are a different group of people.

As they entered the forest, Zuli gradually separated from the main group. He rode alone to a small hill on the outskirts of the forest, dismounted, patted his horse's back, and let it graze on its own.

Su Li lay on the grass, a blade of grass dangling from her mouth, basking in the sunlight with her eyes closed, resting.

Zama caught up, and riding her white horse, she frowned as she looked at the languid-looking fellow: "It's a hunt today, what are you doing here?"

"I think it's interesting, go play by yourself!" Su Li said casually without even opening her eyes.

Zama bit her lip. She had ridden horses and hunted countless times on the grasslands; otherwise, she would never have come when Emperor Wei invited her.

Originally, she was quite excited that such an interesting guy as Su Li had appeared in the hunting grounds, and that she could finally have a comparison. Who knew he would have this kind of attitude?

Zama felt it was pointless to leave, so she dismounted and sat down next to him, nudging the man with her hand.

"What's wrong?" Su Li asked softly, feeling comfortable in the sunlight, his body and mind warm.

"Are you born with superhuman strength?" Zama asked curiously. One person can lift a person weighing two or three hundred pounds high with one hand. There are warriors on the grassland who can do this, but that is on land. The difficulty of doing it on horseback is several times greater.

"So you know... my strength. If you see me on the battlefield in the future, you'd better run away immediately to avoid dying at my hands!" Su Li said.

Zama twitched her nose and said unhappily, "Why do you always talk about the battlefield? Rouran and Wei are allies now, okay?"

"Think about it, can the alliance last forever? Maybe your leader will change next year, and another war will start," Su Li chuckled.

Zama paused for a moment. She knew all too well that this was the case. If the Rouran didn't suffer from natural disasters, all would be well, but if another major disaster occurred, an invasion of Western Wei was inevitable.

Especially after the death of Marquis Dingbei Yan Shicheng, many pro-war factions within the Rouran began to stir up trouble on the frontier.

She hugged her knees and murmured to herself, "We'll deal with the future when it comes. If that day ever comes, you don't have to hold back when we meet on the battlefield."

Su Li said directly, "I never intended to show any mercy in the first place."

Zama glared at her, exasperated: "Really... I thought we were friends, can't you say something nice?"

"Because I won't kill you. I'll capture you alive, make you my slave girl, and have your children. How about that? Is that answer acceptable?"

Su Li opened her eyes and stared at her.

Zama said with her head held high, "How do you know I didn't capture you alive to be my male slave? Don't underestimate me. My riding and archery skills are among the best in Rouran."

"Then let's have a competition and see who becomes whose slave."

Su Li felt uncomfortable with her head resting on the grass, so she straightened up and moved her buttocks back. To Zama's surprise, the back of her head was resting on Zama's slender and rounded legs.

"you……"

"What are you talking about? Didn't you say we're already friends? Letting me use your pillow isn't a big deal!"

Zama blushed slightly and snorted, "We grassland women aren't as open as you imagine. You're the first man I've ever had physical intimacy with."

"It's an honor," Su Li said, looking at her. "If you mind, then don't leave. Be my wife."

"You're dreaming..." Zama glared at him, biting her lower lip. "I am a princess of Rouran. The chief will not allow me to marry a Wei person."

Women are always attracted to strong men. She was a princess in Rouran, with outstanding looks and skills, and countless admirers fawned over her.

Su Li was the first man to enter her heart. He single-handedly captured her brother, who was known as the bravest warrior in the tribe, and showed no regard for her status as a princess. As a result, he left a very deep impression on her.

"Things have changed. Three years... Do you believe that I can marry you in just three years?" Su Li said in a deep voice, deliberately trying to win her heart.

"I don't really believe it!" Zama shook his head, staring at him.

"We'll meet again in three years, and then you'll know I'm telling the truth."

Su Li made this judgment because if Yan Xun rebelled, the war in Western Wei would reignite, and he would have the opportunity to lead troops. Once he took power, the Wei emperor's reign would be nearing its end.

As he embarked on his journey to unify the country, his first concern was his rear. The Western Wei's geographical location was quite unfavorable. To the north was the Rouran, to the east was the Eastern Wei, to the west was the Tuyuhun, and to the south was the Daliang. It could be said that it was surrounded and cut off from all sides.

When he has free time, the first thing he will deal with is the Rouran. Taking down this grassland tribe will not only give him military strength but also a large number of cavalry. For him, marriage alliances have always been an important way to consolidate his position and gain trust, and Zama is the target.

"Three years?"

"Wait for me for three years, and I will marry you..." Su Li said affectionately as he held her soft, calloused hand for the first time.

Under that gaze, Zama's face burned even hotter. Her mind went blank, and she opened her cherry-like mouth to say, "What are you talking about? We've only known each other for less than two days and you're already talking about marriage? You must have had ulterior motives from the very beginning..."

"So what if I do? I like you. What are our feelings for each other?"

Su Li was hard to describe before, but now his confessions are as easy as eating and drinking; he's just gotten used to it after doing it so many times.

"Just a tiny bit of affection, I guess. You've been bullying me ever since we met. If you treat me better from now on, I'll definitely like you even more." Zama said proudly, a slight smile playing on her lips.

"I know, there's something on your lips," Su Li said, pointing to her cherry lips.

"What is it?"

Zama reached out to touch it, but Su Li stopped him, saying, "Let me do it!"

She was kissed.

Gang Qinzama was a little stunned. When emotions and ambiguity filled the air, she got involved. But she couldn't tolerate Su Li's next move.

They are the daughters of the grasslands, fiery and open, but not so open as to give themselves to each other as soon as they meet.

"Get up!"

It took all his strength to push the guy off, and Zama, panting heavily, roared, "What do you think you're doing? Do you think I'm a courtesan from a brothel?"

"No, I couldn't help myself, mainly because you're so charming." Su Li stared at her.

"You're so glib. I'm starting to regret agreeing to your request," Zama said coldly as he turned to deal with his clothes.

You've misunderstood me, really!

Su Li hugged her tall, slender waist from behind, offering sweet words of comfort and making various promises to take her for a stroll in the capital city, thus putting the matter behind them.

He wasn't the kind of person who was impatient. The reason he did this was to leave an impression on this woman. She might be angry now, but when they were thousands of miles apart, it would become a sweet memory.

"Come on, let me show you the scenery of this hunting ground."

Su Li picked up Zhama and placed her on the horse, then mounted himself and embraced the beauty before they began to stroll.

It was a gift from Emperor Wei to Yan Xun. He looked at everyone with amusement and asked, "Tell me, who did this?"

Wei Shuyou immediately said, "Your Majesty, the evidence is conclusive that it was Yan Xunqian who killed Brother Xifeng."

Emperor Wei glanced at Yuwen Yue without even raising his eyelids, straightened his posture, and said, "Yuwen Yue, who did you say it was?"

Yuwen Yue said in a deep voice, "Yan Xun is the most suspicious, but Zhao Xifeng went out with three attendants. Zhao Xifeng was killed, but the whereabouts of the three attendants are unknown. I think that before filing a case, we should find them and then make a decision."

Emperor Wei looked at Su Li with an expressionless face. The latter stepped forward and said, "The evidence left at the scene belongs to Yan Xun. As for whether he is the murderer, no one knows. I suggest that the scene be preserved and experienced constables be transferred from the capital to conduct a thorough investigation. Perhaps we can find something."

His answer was impartial and clearly neutral.

Emperor Wei remained noncommittal, casually tossing the jade pendant onto the table. "Let's do it this way. Yuwen Yue, you are responsible for maintaining the safety of the hunting grounds. You cannot shirk your responsibility for this incident. You will lead the people and Prince Yu to thoroughly investigate this case and handle it impartially. I will intervene in this matter immediately."

Yuan Song keenly sensed something was wrong and directly refused: "Father, I have no experience in handling cases. Let's leave it to my elder brother."

Emperor Wei gave him a deep look: "Then let's go with Che'er..."

"Your subject obeys the decree!" Yuwen Yue and Yuan Che bowed together.

This event also signaled the end of the hunt, and the Rouran envoys, after a period of rest, were about to return to the northern border.

Su Li specially invited Zama to visit the capital, showering him with food, drinks, and various gifts every day. Their relationship progressed rapidly, and under his persistent pursuit, they tried almost everything except the final step.

On the day the Rouran envoys left, it was a morning after a light rain. The willow branches were as tender as jade, and a gentle breeze was blowing.

Zaru looked at the man with his sister in the distance and felt helpless. Time was up!

"I'm leaving!" Zama looked at the handsome man in front of her with some disappointment. This departure would take her thousands of miles away, and she didn't know when they would meet again.

"Remember your promise, I will find you." Su Li slowly released her hands, signaling the Rouran people to bring the horse over, and lifted her onto the horse again. "Go!"

"You must come find me!" Zama's voice was trembling with emotion; she was truly invested in the situation.

"certainly……"

Su Li watched the Rouran delegation depart before riding back. He looked towards the main hall of the palace. Today was the day Yuwen Yue would find out the results. Just like in the original drama, Wei Shuyou had been framed by them.

After noon, he received news that Wei Guang of the Wei clan had personally killed his son with a spiral arrow in front of everyone in the main hall.

At this point, any intelligent person could figure out who the murderer was and who orchestrated the whole thing.

Su Li also knew that Yan Xun was on the verge of death. The emperor had never been so eager to kill him before. Despite being at a disadvantage, he was still able to scheme against a scion of a powerful family.

This cunning and shrewdness is truly intimidating...
