7. Allow me to be a concubine
85_85279 On that day, I put the only blood of the Yang family along the moat in the suburbs, this river is not wide, but it is not short, this way downstream, I am afraid that there will be a lot of roads. To be honest, I wasn't confident at all that I would be able to find the child. I'm not even sure if the kid is still alive.
However, looking at Yang Shun's expectant look, I didn't dare to say this, but mentioned it slightly, "The child was sent away as soon as he was born, and it doesn't matter where he goes, and we don't know what he looks like now, but I'm afraid it's hard to find." ”
Yang Shun lowered his head and muttered for a long time, and said, "I can find him." I thought he was talking about his determination, but he paused for a moment and said, "This kid is just like me, he has a large blue birthmark on his back when he was born. ”
I was taken aback and said, "Really? That's a lot easier to find. ”
Yang Shun smiled shyly, "I hope so." ”
He has been sleeping in the open in the past few years, and now he has been injured and has not recovered, and his body is actually very weak, and he rushed to this road in the morning, which is actually very reluctant for him. By this time he was panting like a cow. I glanced at him and said, "Would you like to take a break?" ”
"No, you don't." Yang Shun said firmly.
We walked along the river, and when we met people, they asked if they had picked up a baby boy two years ago, and most people would say no, and some people who happened to have children would hug the children at home and look at us like enemies, and scold us away.
After walking like this for more than ten days, there was still no news, Yang Shun's injury was like a day, but his mood was worse day by day. I know he's getting desperate, we're almost at the end of the downstream, and if we still don't have the child's whereabouts, then our last clue is gone.
On this day we walked to a market town, and suddenly met a pair of soldiers and horses, very well-trained, and walked through the streets in a sonorous manner, and I was wondering in my heart why such a small group of soldiers and horses would pass by here, and suddenly I saw a soldier passing by me with a token hanging from his waist and the word "god" written on it. hurriedly pulled Yang Shun aside and hid. Yang Shun asked impatiently, "What's wrong?" ”
I didn't answer him, I just said, "You are the person the emperor wants to kill, I am the person that King Yan is looking for, we still have to stay away when we encounter officers and soldiers." ”
When Yang Shun saw me say this, he had nothing to answer. He didn't know that the team just now was Zhu Di's Divine Machine Battalion. But what are they doing here?
At this moment, a big man not far away came over, holding a piece of paper in his hand, and muttered in his mouth, "There are strange things every year, and today is especially strange!" Let's take a look, the princess Niangniang in the Yan Wangfu is lost, the Yan Wangye is brave on the battlefield, and he can't help but have a long love for his children, and he sent the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion to find the mother everywhere! ”
I'm shocked, the princess is lost? I squeezed through the crowd and looked at the shape in the hand of the big man, only to see that it was written, "Today, there is a side concubine of Yan Wangfu, He, who was lost on the Qixi Festival, if found, those who return to the palace will be rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver, and those who send the exact report will be rewarded with 5,000 taels of silver." ”
There's also a picture of my head drawn underneath. At first glance, it looks lifelike, but if it weren't for the fact that I'm also dressed up now, I'm afraid I'll be recognized. I quickly left the crowd and followed Yang Shun to a clean place. Yang Shun didn't speak all the way, when he walked to an alley, he suddenly pulled out the hilt of his sword, and stabbed at me, I dodged it in three or two clicks, just saw the reward order, I was upset, at this time Yang Shun inexplicably made a move to me, I was even more anxious, and said angrily, "What are you doing?" What's going on? ”
Yang Shun sneered, "I always thought you were just a Jinyi guard hiding in King Yan's mansion, but I didn't expect you to seduce King Yan and become a princess!" You were afraid that I would reveal your identity, so you deliberately came out with me, didn't you? My child is long dead, you made it up to lie to me, didn't you? ”
I snatched his sword with my backhand, slapped him hard with the back of the sword, and said angrily, "You have been on the run for two years, how can you save your life if you don't grow your brains?" If I were the princess, I would have directly ordered someone to kill you, and I would have waited until now? If you want to confront King Yan face to face, I am the identity of Jinyiwei, do you think that people still listen to you, a condemned prisoner, or listen to me, the princess? Besides, do you really think I'm a straw bale and can't kill you? The two of us are fighting now, and you don't know who loses and who wins? Jin Yiwei's more than ten years of training, how can you compare with your small family dancing knives and playing with guns? ! ”
Yang Shun listened to my words and wilted again. After all, he still asked, "The person in the painting is clearly you!" ”
He didn't say anything, and I was even more annoyed by this statement, "How do I know!"
Yang Shun didn't see my face so stinky, and he was not my opponent, so he had to swallow his anger and stop talking. And I'm still thinking about the words on the bounty paper, "side concubine"...... A reward of 10,000 taels was offered...... Touched, I couldn't help but hate and think, it turns out that I am only worth 10,000 taels of silver? I thought I couldn't be separated by 180,000 taels of silver, and 10,000 taels had to be gold.
Thinking of this, I suddenly wanted to go back to Zhu Di to theorize how much money I was worth in his heart. But it's just a matter of thinking.
It's just that I don't know if he issued such a search order, what did Ma Sanbao tell him? With my understanding of Sanbao, since he promised me that he would not tell Zhu Di about me, he would definitely keep his mouth shut. Will he persuade Zhu Di that I am already dead? If I'm dead, why would he go to such lengths to come to me?
I bypassed one question after another in my mind, and it almost dizzy me, and in the end, I shook my head and told myself that I had already chosen it, so don't think about the past, Zhu Di is looking for He Lianyi, Helian Yi has died in the fire, I am An Caiwen. That's right, I'm the former An Caiwen.
Yang Shun and I didn't find the whereabouts of the child until the end of the river, but we often saw the notices posted by Zhu Di, or the Shenji Battalion of the team searching for people. Every time I bump into this, my heart feels like the softest place has been scratched by a cat's paw. It was a little painful at first, but gradually it began to become numb.
Yang Shun pointed to the riverbed that had dried up, and said angrily, "Look at it, look at it, we have found this place, but we haven't even found the shadow of the child." ”
"I just accompanied you out to look for it, and I didn't promise you that the child would definitely find it." That's all I can say.
Yang Shun is no longer as angry as when he couldn't find it in the first few days, his face is becoming more and more desperate, as if a person has no hope in the first place, you gave him a little hope, and now this hope is slowly extinguished.
"Regardless of whether the child is still there, thank you for accompanying me to find it all the way, I have arrived here, and I can't find ......" Yang Shun paused, "I probably won't be able to find it for the rest of my life." Let's break up here, grievances and grievances are all in the past. It doesn't matter if you wander the rivers and lakes, or if you really go back to the palace to be a princess, let's break up. ”
Listening to Yang Shun's words, I felt guilty again, after all, I couldn't help him find the child, and after getting along along the way, I found that he was actually the most ordinary son, with a pure heart and a simple mind, if it wasn't for the great change two years ago, I am afraid that he will have no worries about food and clothing in this life.
"You are already a dead person, and no one in the court knows that you are still alive, so you can find a quiet place to live incognito for the rest of your life. Find a good girl, and the child can be born again. When I said these comforting words, I felt very tasteless, and my face immediately turned red, but fortunately, Yang Shun didn't bother with me, just silently carried his sword and left.
I used to help him find a child as a sustenance in life, but now there is nothing, in fact, I am more empty and lonely than him, but I am not as miserable as him.
Embarking on an endless journey alone, I'm not in the mood to see the scenery. In order to avoid Zhu Di's search, I avoided many lively places and walked north. I heard that if you go north, you will have to go out of the customs. There are many nomadic groups of ethnic minorities living there, such as Turkic, Xianbei, Rouran, and Huns. The Yuan people were repelled by Zhu Yuanzhang, and they also retreated there. Although the Yuan people were brutal when they fought in the Central Plains, the people there were simple, kind, and enthusiastic.
I'm fed up with the Central Plains, and I want to go there. Perhaps, there I will meet Yuelong City, and maybe his newly found barbarian wife. When I think about it, I feel all over it.
But I encountered a difficult thing - that is, I am not entangled, all the way is the jewelry I pawn on my body, Yang Shun is also poor, I still have to bring him a mouth to eat, and now I have run out of food. All I have on me is the jade bracelet that Zhu Di gave me during the Chinese New Year and the silver hairpin that Yuelong City gave me when he left. You can see at a glance that the silver hairpin is worthless, but it is not a problem to exchange it for three or five days of steamed bread, but I am definitely reluctant.
The green jade bracelet on my wrist, I know it will be a good price, but I am even more reluctant.
So I almost fell into a dilemma, I now deeply hate myself for not removing the silver ticket that Yuelong City gave me at that time, and when I think about it, he must have really needed the silver taels, and I don't regret it.
In the end, I came up with an idea, covered my face, and found the most lively teahouse to play the pipa for people every day, and it was enough to satisfy my stomach all the way. In the end, I made a little money, bought a huqin, and finally had a guy to eat by myself.
No matter how carefully Zhu Di looked, he couldn't resist the person he was looking for and wanted to escape, I fled all the way to the gate, and finally I couldn't see the missing person notice he posted again. The heart is both relieved and lost
