Since the Accounting: A Chronicle of the Roman Khanate

Chapter 80
"You guys...what's the matter?" Guo Kang was trying to break up the fight when a woman's voice came from beside him.

"I...help me pull away...this disrespectful barbarian...ah..." Zhu Wenkui struggled hard, trying to tear Rang Na's hand away from her face.

"I'm fine, but the two of them—" Guo Kang hadn't finished speaking when Rangna accidentally kicked him on the leg: "Why are you kicking me?!"

He turned his head to look, and found that Li Anning was standing beside him, leading the horse.It seems to be going back from the end of the track, just passing by here.

"Don't look at it, don't look at it." Guo Kang hurriedly called her: "Come to fight! Come to fight!"

Although Zhu Wenkui is the elder brother, he doesn't seem to have enough exercise, so he was beaten by Rang Na.Guo Kang couldn't persuade him, and he didn't know if it was appropriate to do it directly, so he hurriedly called the girl to help.

But fortunately, it seemed that this was not the first time Li Anning tried to persuade her to fight. He immediately came behind Rang Na, locked her arm, and began to pull her back.Guo Kang also quickly grabbed Zhu Wenkui, trying to persuade him while pulling him.

"Hmph!" In the chaos, Nurhachi ran over, trying to push the two of them apart.

It took a lot of effort, and everyone finally separated the brother and sister.Rang Na looked okay, but Zhu Wenkui was especially embarrassed, and Rang Na took off his hat.

Seeing that Jeanna was dragged away, he hurriedly picked up the hat while chanting the famous saying "A gentleman dies, and the crown is inevitable".He said that it's not that he didn't want to fight, but for the sake of gentleman's etiquette, so he didn't care about her for the time being.

Guo Kang felt that it was justifiable not to beat his uncle, but it was a bit unreasonable not to beat his sister.But Zhu Wenkui was miserable enough, he couldn't say anything more.

"Okay, okay." Li Anning was also confused, so he could only comfort everyone first: "How old are you, why are you still fighting like a child?"

"Hey, I don't even know what's going on." Guo Kang shook his head and said, "How did the fight start..."

He patted the hem of his clothes and wanted to mutter a few words, but Li Anning gave him a wink.After Guo Kang thought about it, it was indeed better not to say anything.

After all, it is most important to appease the emotions first.If the cause of the fight is to be investigated, the two sides will probably have to quarrel again, and I am afraid that Nurhachi on both sides will not be able to separate.

"These two are His Royal Highness King Wu's eldest son and princess, you should have heard of it before." He said, and then introduced to Zhu Wenkui: "My son, this is Miss Li just mentioned."

Then, he looked at Zhu Wenkui, waiting for his reaction.

Sure enough, Zhu Wenkui couldn't hold back his face, and didn't care about Rangna's side anymore.He hurriedly stood up, straightened his clothes, and bowed his hands to her: "I'm really sorry, my sister is naughty, and I can't discipline her. The girl laughed."

Guo Kang turned his head to stare at Rang Na again, and after a while, she couldn't stand it anymore, so she also stood up and said hello to Li Anning.However, judging by her expression, she still seemed quite reluctant.

"My name is Zhu Youzhen, and I believe in the Roman Catholic Church. Just call me Jeanna." She said, "I heard from Mr. Guo that my sister also has a Christian name?"

"Yes, please call me Anastasia." Li Anning said, "I've always used this name in my hometown."

"This is a Greek name, but it is the most common name in the Ross area." Guo Kang helped her explain: "It probably means the resurrection of Brother Tian."

"I believe in Nestorianism." Li Anning said with a smile, "Miss Jeanna doesn't think I'm a heretic, does she?"

"You talk about heresy in the purple tent..." Jeanna said dumbfoundedly: "If you believed in the orthodox Eastern Assyrian church, people might really think you were a heretic. But in Dadu today, you should be the one with the purest faith. that group of people."

"I've heard family members mention your siblings before. Was Miss Jeanna baptized following her mother's faith?" Li Anning asked.

"Yes. My mother is a member of the French royal family, and she is at the core of the Catholic world, so her beliefs are naturally very devout." Jeanne replied.

"So devout that I can't do without the Pope of Rome, I invite people to be guests every day, and don't let them go, right?" Zhu Wenkui complained in a low voice.

Guo Kang hurriedly told him not to disrupt the stage, so as not to quarrel again.

"Shenluo, there is no shortage of Shangluo... Oh, 'Shangluo', should you talk to the Pope." He persuaded: "In these years, those who have not arrested the Pope are ashamed to say that they are a big European country." .”

"I heard from Brother Kang that your Chinese surname is Li?" Over there, Jeanna ignored them, but continued the topic, and deliberately chose a title that sounded very close, and brought Guo Kang into it: "Which family is this Li family? Are you also a relative of Li Xuanying's family?"

"Actually not. Strictly speaking, it's just clinging." Li Anning didn't care about the thorns in her words, and still answered with a smile.

"My ancestors were the nobles of the Kere tribe. The Kere tribe is not a single tribe, but an alliance formed by the remaining Uighurs and the Shiwei tribes that moved westward after the disintegration of the Uyghur Khanate."

"The distant ancestor of my family is said to be a member of the Uyghur Khan Court, and the Uyghur and Datang had intermarried many times. Therefore, when the Han surname was adopted later, the Li surname was also chosen."

"It's really a bit far away." Jean Na also said with a smile: "Speaking of which, Yelu and Liu shouldn't have any blood relatives. But everyone seems to like to forcefully find a relationship with Liu and Li, no matter how much they go around Okay."

Considering Li Anning's paternal line, the Chinese surname is Li; matrilineal, the Chinese surname is Liu.Guo Kang always felt that Jeanna was smiling a bit maliciously.

However, before he said anything, Zhu Wenkui couldn't stand it anymore.

"I'm afraid my sister is not stupid. Isn't this nonsense." He whispered to Guo Kang again: "The Central Plains Dynasty is the most famous for these few surnames. If the surnames are not Liu and Li, why not follow the official family and take the surname Zhao?" ?”

"...There is Zhao Liang, too. Well, he might not really be clinging." Guo Kang couldn't figure it out either, and always felt suspicious, so he could only say so for the time being.

"Everyone here, do you also want to practice riding and archery?" Li Anning looked at the two of them, then glanced at Rang Na, and asked.

"Maybe I can try." Zhu Wenkui said, "However, my sister probably won't."

"Oh?" Li Anning was a little surprised: "Miss Rangna has never learned archery?"

"I don't like archery." Jeanne said hastily, "I don't think this is what I should do."

"But even the Roman Catholic Church didn't prohibit archery." Li Anning pointed out, "I remember that England's infantry also had a large number of archers."

Why did Jeanna resist so much? Did she encounter something that caused her psychological shadow?Guo Kang thought for a while with a puzzled expression, and his gaze inadvertently swept across Rang Na.

Although she is not very old, it may be due to her mother's blood that Jeanna grows up very fast-this is also in various aspects.

And looking at Li Anning, her upper body was full of magnanimity, no wonder Zhu Wenkui saw a certain young master at first glance.

Guo Kang suddenly felt that she could not be blamed either.
