This winter in Daqi is exceptionally cold.

The people who have experienced the great drought and flood are vulnerable and vulnerable in the face of this winter day when the water turns into ice. And the gray and gray weather all day long has added a touch of rot to this dynasty that has lasted for hundreds of years.

It seems that in the last years of every dynasty, there are all kinds of natural disasters, heroes and powerful people in various places, officials are bullying and dominating the market, and the people are selling girls as well as dead.

History is like a punctual rut, at a fixed point at a fixed time, it will always take the trouble to roll over again.

In the majestic palace room of the Great Qi Palace, Princess Mingyue, the pearl of Emperor Xuande of the Great Qi, fell asleep with her whole small body shrunk in the soft silk quilt.

The hall where the earth dragon burned was as warm as spring, and the noble little princess was like a little milk cat rolling around on the carved bed, and she didn't sleep well.

In a daze, I always felt that there were countless people shouting, and the voice was murderous and awe-inspiring, with a hint of fanaticism and madness.

Suddenly, the door of the temple was pushed open with a bang, and the cold wind outside couldn't wait to squeeze in, and the person who opened the door was bloated and staggered, and ran to the big bed in the hall before he could close the door.

"My son, Jiaojiao get up quickly, I can't sleep." The voice was desperate.

The sudden cold wind blew up the gorgeous splendid tent, and the cold wind poured in, freezing the delicate and noble little princess to a thrill. Before he opened his eyes, he pouted and babbled and complained, "It's cold." ”

Emperor Xuande didn't care about anything else, took the clothes on the desk on the side and wrapped them around her, and shouted while wrapping them, "Come on, where are you all dead, come and change the princess's clothes." ”

But where are the people?

The catastrophe is coming, people's hearts are panicking, and the awake ones are packing up the gold and silver and the treasures in the palace are about to run away, and the sleeping ones are alarmed, and they are also in a hurry to dress and pack their bags.

It was still a sixty-year-old old woman who hurried in with her little feet while remembering the buttons of her padded jacket. Seeing that the emperor was hurriedly dressing the princess, he didn't say much and stepped forward to help.

Tai Jiaojiao was so used to it that she was so angry that she got up. With a loud cry, he stood up on the bed, pointed to the king of a country in front of him, and said angrily: "Father, what are you doing, people are sleeping!" Go find your beauty, don't bother me. ”

Emperor Xuande's heart ached, his mouth was bitter, and tears came down, "Son, you are obedient, hurry up and get dressed." It's too late, and the rebels are about to come in. ”

In the aftermath of that day, Tai Jiaojiao always remembered it vaguely.

I only remember that I was cleaned up by my father and Mama Li, in order not to be conspicuous, I was wearing an old cloak from the old grandmother, the color of the earth and gray, and it was lifeless. That temperature became the warmth that she could not regain later.

The father touched her twice, found a big hole under her big bed, and then put her in it himself.

The moment she closed the secret door, she heard the shouting and killing sounds floating in the wind, opened a pair of clear fawn eyes, stared at her father wetly, and asked, "Father, won't you go with me?" But Jiaojiao alone will be afraid. ”

The father seemed to have suddenly become strong and brave, as always gentle and kind to smile at her, untied the green dragon jade pendant around his waist and put it in her hand, touched her little black and yellow face lovingly, and said: "My little princess, my father is the king of a country, he can be defeated, he can die, but he can't escape." Since your mother died, I have been cowardly and absurd all my life, and when I am coming, why do I want my husband to go to see her.

My father is reluctant to let you go, but you remember, my father will always protect you, so don't be afraid of my Jiaojiao.

obediently followed Mama Li and them. Live well, don't think about revenge. No, ah. ”

After saying that, he ruthlessly closed the secret door. Darkness was instantaneous underground. She cried hoarsely. I don't understand why, before going to bed, she still tugged at her father's beard and said that she wanted a big horse, bigger than the eldest brother's, and her father smiled and said, 'No problem, my little princess wants everything'.

Overnight, she wanted to leave her father alone and fled in a hurry at night.

She held the Qinglong jade pendant tightly, and walked out with a handful of snot and tears escorted by the elderly Mama Li and a pair of guards who had never seen her.

The five fingers of the dark in the tunnel are not visible, and the light of the night pearl is also suppressed and does not play much role. She was terrified and disgusted, but she didn't say anything, gritted her teeth and walked forward with a shallow foot.

After walking for a long time, I finally saw a glimmer of light.

It turned out that it was already dawn, and they had been walking all night.

When he was about to reach the entrance of the cave, a square-faced guard who came out stopped Tai Jiaojiao and Mama Li, handed over a burden and said: "Now that there are chaos outside, there are many people, so the princess should dress up in disguise." ”

Mama Li patted her head, and looked at her princess's charming and fresh face in a faint light, "It's the old slave who is confused." ”

The square-faced guard was supposed to be the head of the guard, and with a gesture, the people around him dispersed, and although they were not far away, they all stood with their backs.

Tai Jiaojiao was still worried about her father, and she shed tears all night, and her eyes hurt unbearably. Like a broken puppet, let Mama Li undress her.

The leader of the guards knew that Tai Jiaojiao and Mama Li's bodies had reached the limit, and it was inconvenient to be in the tunnel, but now that he was out of the tunnel, he half-squatted in front of Tai Jiaojiao and said respectfully: "Little master, offended." ”

The group did not dare to delay, and hurriedly carried Tai Jiaojiao and Mama Li to the southwest. He had already made an appointment with the chief to meet in a small town in the southwest, and the eldest prince should also arrive by then.

I didn't dare to take the big road, but fortunately, several guards were people who went south and north to do tasks, and they were not afraid of getting lost when they took the small road.

At noon, they passed through a small town and bought the few horses that were available at the inn. Looking at the capital in the distance, where there was no trace in sight, several guards breathed a sigh of relief.

Tai Jiaojiao didn't dare to cry loudly when she whimpered, but she just shed tears, and Mama Li's distressed eyes were red. Seeing that the black ash on her face was hastily smeared, it was almost washed away by tears, and she couldn't help but persuade: "Little master, don't cry, the master Jiren has his own natural appearance, and he will definitely be fine." ”

Looking around, I thought I had unconsciously smeared the ashes in my hands again, but I didn't know that it fell into the eyes of people with hearts.

The main reason is that their group is too conspicuous, several middle-aged men, with bright eyes, strong bodies, agile movements, and two ragged ones, an old man and a young man, are clearly the relationship between the master and the subordinates.

In this way, there is some wealth on the body.

Tai Jiaojiao was led by the chief of the guard and rode a horse, tapping and tapping towards the gray sun. As he walked into a path at the foot of a mountain, the chief guard suddenly called a halt.

"Something is wrong."

"Boss, what's wrong?"

The head of the guard twisted his thick eyebrows and searched left and right, shaking his head, thinking that he was all soldiers. looked at the sun in the west, and said in a deep voice: "It's me who is too worried, continue to hurry." ”

But when they reached the middle of the road, all the guards looked at the railing that suddenly burst out, let alone turn around, or even stopped.

The chief guard hugged the stunned Tai Jiaojiao, and fell to the ground smoothly.

A thunderous voice sounded, "Yo he, my brother has two hits." Don't worry, my brother just wants to borrow some money from my brother. ”

As the sound sounded, twenty or thirty big men with knives appeared around, all fierce and vicious.

Tai Jiaojiao was so frightened that she didn't fall to the ground with the support of the chief of the guard. She was terrified of being wronged to the extreme. She knows about robbers and bandits, and when she was watching a play in Liyuan, she whimsically dreamed that one day she would go to the end of the world with a sword and cut the robbers and bandits as watermelons.

Now, she's a watermelon.

The chief guard shut up and made a look, and a round-faced guard next to him, not angry and arrogant, said lightly: "It's easy, we are in a hurry, the money can be left, so we should make friends." ”

The head of the robber was a bearded man, eight feet tall, fat, with big ears, a dark face, and eyes like brass bells. A pair of eyes are full of fierce light, and the murderous aura is awe-inspiring, which is obviously not a good stubble.

He didn't expect this team of people who didn't seem to be weak to talk so well, and looked around a few people inquiringly. When sweeping over the unusually bloated and broken Tai Jiaojiao, he stopped for a moment.

Suddenly, his eyes were obscene, and he laughed and said: "Lao Tzu just said that this is a little girl, it turns out that it is true." Brothers, leave this little girl's skin and belongings, and you can do it yourself. ”

It turned out that Tai Jiaojiao's hands leaked the mystery, patronizing the use of cotton clothes to hide her body and cover her face with black ash, but she forgot that a pair of red crispy hands that are as tender as the tips of green onions can also make men drool.

Tai Jiaojiao hid her hands in her sleeves tremblingly, her head hung dead and did not dare to raise it, she was as frightened as a bird with a bow, trembling like chaff.

The robber leader laughed louder, "Little girl, don't be afraid, follow grandpa and me, keep it so that you have to think about it once and twice, and you are comfortable to serve." If you don't think so, I'll have these brothers waiting in line to serve you. ”

The robbers around them all laughed when they heard this, and all kinds of vulgar and indecent words were thrown over one after another.

Where did Tai Jiaojiao suffer this, a dignified princess of a country, she has always lived with her nostrils facing the sky, no matter how afraid she is, the innate nobility and dignity do not allow others to insult her. She looked up angrily and said angrily, "Bold minion! ”

The voice is coquettish to the bones, sweet and greasy as honey, and the bones of those who scratch them are soft.

Robbers live by the mountains, and only heroes succeed in the barren mountains and wilderness. Women are extremely rare, even if there is a half, they are just rough and despicable women in the countryside. Where is it like the one in front of me, although it is tightly wrapped, but looking at the little hands, listening to the small voice, and the momentum surrounded by the stars, it is clear that she is a delicate lady.

"The emperor is about to lose his fucking sitting, and he is still a slave, Lao Tzu is your man, hahaha." Last night's palace change did not spread so quickly, and this rural place only knew that the court was unstable, but did not know that the palace was broken.

When the chief guard saw that the little princess made a sound, he knew that he wanted bad dishes, and when he saw that the robbers around him really stared at the little princess as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, one by one the wolf light flashed, and the strange screams in their mouths were repeated.

It can't be better today.

He quietly approached the horse, which had only been stopped for a moment, and had no fatal injuries, and had now stood up, kicking the horse's hooves and spewing white air from its nostrils.

With the back of his hand, he gestured to the guard next to him, and then carried Tai Jiaojiao on his horse with lightning speed, and shouted: "Cover, cover!" ”

In the midst of the chaos, the horsewhip desperately whipped the black horse under him, and rushed out like an arrow from the string.

Tai Jiaojiao's face turned pale, and the situation of this day and night was really unimaginable in the previous thirteen years of life. Sensing that the guard behind her suddenly snorted in pain, her arms around her tightened in vain, and she trembled in the face of the cold wind with tears in her eyes: "Hey, what's wrong with you?" ”
