Chapter 634
"Hey! Regarding the matter of Consort Timur, the Khan still..."
Yelu Chu had been about to say that Tie Muzhen had not yet agreed to give Timur to General Chilaowen.
But the moment the three words "Timur" left his mouth, General Chilaowen could not help being shocked into a daze.
The drunken air about him also sobered by more than half.
"Timur, Timur, could it be that..."
Seeing him like this, Yelu Chu sighed inwardly once more.
How could General Chilaowen, who had campaigned across the realm and killed without blinking,
become like this the moment he ran into a Timur?
Truly, even heroes cannot pass the beauty's gate.
"Yes, after the Khan learned of it..."
Yelu Chu had not wanted to mention that Tie Muzhen was preparing to agree to give Timur to General Chilaowen.
But seeing him so infatuated, he could not resist preparing to let slip a little, so that he would be mentally prepared.
"What? The Khan actually knows?"
General Chilaowen wore an expression as though his jaw were about to drop in shock.
"Of course! Naturally the Khan knows."
Saying so, Yelu Chu prepared to point at the sky, to tell him it was the Heavenly Dao Golden List that had exposed it.
"I'm done for! How did the Great Khan already know about me sleeping with Timur?"
General Chilaowen muttered to himself, his face full of terror.
Though he spoke softly, Yelu Chu was right beside him and heard every word clearly.
What the hell?
This damned General Chilaowen actually slept with Consort Timur?
And you call this love?
Besides, Tie Muzhen is not only your sovereign, he's also your sworn elder brother, for heaven's sake.
You call this not being shy about a friend's wife?
Yelu Chu could not help falling into disarray in the wind.
How is it that the generals and experts of the Great Yuan are each more outrageous than the last!
"Prime Minister, what should we do?"
Seeing Yelu Chu's expression, General Chilaowen could not help seeking advice and asking.
"You only need to with Your Majesty..."
Yelu Chu had been about to tell him that he merely needed to keep it hidden.
After all, if he publicly admitted to sleeping with Timur, Tie Muzhen would not be able to save face.
"General Chilaowen, how come you've only just arrived."
General Zhebie suddenly appeared at this moment, and before Yelu Chu could finish speaking, pulled him toward the great hall,
"Congratulations to you!"
"Same to you, same to you."
General Chilaowen did not know where the joy was coming from.
"Whatever is on your mind later, just be open and honest with the Great Khan.
After all, the Great Khan and you are anda; for some small matter, he will grant your wish."
General Zhebie said, patting him on the shoulder.
He had just been in the great hall as well, and had also seen that Tie Muzhen was preparing to yield Timur.
Moreover, Timur had just arrived and was also entreating Tie Muzhen to let her go.
Though Tie Muzhen was somewhat reluctant, he counted it as tacit agreement.
Therefore General Zhebie had come to find General Chilaowen, to let him confess with confidence.
"Can it really be so?"
General Chilaowen wore a face full of doubt.
"Of course it can."
General Zhebie nodded with solemn assurance.
Can your sister!
Yelu Chu really wanted to curse General Zhebie at this moment, but General Zhebie and General Chilaowen were both part of the military system.
He was part of the civil official system.
Civil and military were naturally at odds.
General Chilaowen trusted General Zhebie far more than he did Yelu Chu.
"General Chilaowen pays respects to the Khan."
Just as Yelu Chu was hesitating, General Chilaowen had already entered the great hall.
First he performed a respectful bow.
"Sworn brother, no need for ceremony, rise quickly."
Tie Muzhen looked at the two great generals under his command, both having become the Thirteen Wings, and was quite pleased.
"Khan..."
General Chilaowen had still been hesitating, but as he rose he happened to see that Timur was also in the great hall.
Moreover, Timur kept casting glances his way.
General Chilaowen's heart skipped a beat, thinking the affair had been exposed, and recalling General Zhebie's words, he immediately dropped to his knees with a thud once more,
"Khan, this minister is guilty!"
"It's a small matter, a small matter. I already know about you and Tie Muzhen."
Tie Muzhen was delighted to appear magnanimous before his ministers, preparing to grant this matter directly.
"What? The Khan knows about this too?"
General Chilaowen now confirmed it without a doubt, and immediately kowtowed as if pounding garlic,
"Khan, this minister deserves death!
But the truth is that Tie Muzhen and I grew up together from childhood, childhood sweethearts from the start.
Although she married into the imperial Shengong, in truth she wasn't happy at all, not happy in the slightest.
Last time she suffered at the hands of a vile person again, this minister comforted her.
In a moment of folly, after drinking too much, I overstepped the bounds between ruler and minister.
I beg the Khan to pardon this minister's crime!"
"……"
After hearing General Chilaowen finish, the entire imperial great hall fell into a deathly silence.
Did I hear wrong?
What did General Chilaowen just say?
He comforted Imperial Consort Tie Muzhen, overstepped the bounds between ruler and minister?
Doesn't this mean the Great Khan has been cuckolded?
In an instant, the ministers' gazes, whether intentional or not, drifted toward the top of Tie Muzhen's head.
Although that Jin Guang shone brilliantly, dazzling and radiant, in the ministers' eyes, that light was green…..
444, you just got on the Golden Rankings and you're already slipping away?
After General Chilaowen finished speaking, he lay prostrate on the ground, not daring to move at all.
But after waiting a long time, Tie Muzhen still did not speak.
He even felt that the atmosphere of the entire great hall had grown somewhat chillingly cold.
Strange — didn't that kid General Zhebie say just confessing honestly would be fine?
He's already confessed honestly, so why is the situation getting worse instead?
He stealthily glanced ahead at Tie Muzhen and found him looking at himself with an expression as if about to devour someone.
General Chilaowen's heart gave a sudden lurch, and he immediately kowtowed again to admit his fault.
Yelu Chu could only sigh — had I known earlier, you brat, that you not only admired Tie Muzhen, but even slept with her.
