Chapter Eighty-Four: I Hope She Can Lose Her Anger
The bonfires of the Rota tribe were suspended due to the sudden intrusion of Prince Sumeng, and the tribesmen gathered to talk about what was happening.
Princess Jin'er hid on the lookout, secretly looked down, and saw that Brother Wang was able to wait by the bonfire with a straight face, and she became more and more panicked, and quietly asked Ren Zhen: "Second Miss, I'm so scared." ”
Ren Zhen is an extremely kind-hearted girl, seeing that Princess Jin'er was flustered, she held one of her hands and comforted: "Jin'er, you have to be confident, Prince Xuanyuan will definitely help you save the day." ”
Princess Jin'er noticed that Ren Zhen's hand was hot, and she had a little confidence in her heart, and when she saw Brother Wang standing with her face up, she felt that she couldn't stand the royal brother, so she couldn't help but get entangled, closed her eyes and calmed down.
Prince Sumeng was waiting very anxiously, when he suddenly saw the patriarch leading a young man to walk over in a row, and looked at the young man carefully, and saw that he was wearing the clothes of the Rota tribesmen who fit very well, and his face was smeared with heavy makeup that he needed to dress up every time he participated in a grand event, mainly red, white, and black, and the three colors were intertwined and painted on his face, almost covering his original appearance.
The tribal patriarch walked up to Prince Sumeng and said, "Your Royal Highness, the matter is a little bit inquired. ”
"How? Say it. Prince Sumeng urged.
"Your Royal Highness, don't worry, here's the thing. At noon today, a young man was invited to my tribe as a guest, and according to him, on the way here, he had met a frightened carriage with only two girls on board. ”
"Well, that's pretty much it, it looks like it's eight or nine. And then what? Prince Sumeng waited for the following.
"Then they passed by and went their separate ways." The tribal patriarch replied on his behalf.
Prince Su Meng didn't want to listen to the patriarch convey these things, so he pointed at Xuanyuan Mingyu and said, "Is this person who met halfway?" Let him answer for himself. ”
The tribal patriarch explained, "Yes, it is he who has come from other tribes to visit the first warrior of the steppe in our tribe. Probably he was still young, he had never seen much of the world, he was timid, and he was a little restrained and unfamiliar when he saw His Royal Highness the prince for the first time, and he didn't dare to stand up and take the initiative to reply. Well, I will tell him to come and meet His Royal Highness. ”
The tribal patriarch said, stretched out his hand and beckoned: "Xiaoyu, come here, don't be afraid, His Royal Highness the Prince treats the people on our grassland very generously, and you can say whatever you ask, and I won't embarrass you." ”
Xuanyuan Mingyu lowered his head, walked up to Prince Sumeng, his knees were weak, he simply knelt on the grass and saluted, and said, "Xiaoyu greets His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
Prince Sumeng said "um", and did not say anything about it, looked at the young man condescendingly, and asked, "You tell me clearly, where did the carriage go later?" ”
Xuanyuan Mingyu was very smart, imitating the accent of the Rota tribesmen, and did not look up, but lowered his eyes and replied: "His Royal Highness Prince Qiyu, I met those two girls just in Pingshui, they didn't say where they were going, and I didn't ask. ”
"You pushed it clean?" Prince Su Meng was a little unhappy, and he couldn't get the specific whereabouts of Wang Mei, so he shouted anxiously: "Are you blind?" You can always see which way the carriage is going, right? ”
"Oh, this one, their carriage is heading east-west." Xuanyuan Mingyu replied seriously.
The adjutant general stood behind Prince Sumeng, heard the young man say that he was going in the east-west direction, and reminded Prince Sumeng: "Your Highness, if the general's guess is correct, the princess's carriage should have gone to Moli Town." ”
"Don't leave the town? Are you sure? Prince Sumeng asked.
The adjutant general just speculated, and he couldn't be sure, and replied: "Your Highness, the last general just inferred according to common sense, the closest place to live here in the east-west direction is Moli Town, which is a three-regardless zone, if the princess really goes there, it is really tricky, and it is not easy to get people out of town." ”
Prince Su Meng nodded, thinking that the lieutenant general was reasonable, and said to the patriarch: "Patriarch, this prince will borrow this person from you temporarily, let him lead the way, and lead the welcoming team to the place where he and the princess met, and where to point out the whereabouts of the carriage." ”
"This ......" The tribal patriarch hesitated, glanced at Xuanyuan Mingyu, and felt that he was very weak, wondering if he could go through the bumpy trek again?
Prince Sumeng was extremely arrogant, and he did not ask for the opinion of Xuanyuan Mingyu himself, only said hello to the patriarch, and ordered the deputy general to take Xuanyuan Mingyu away.
"This ......" The tribal patriarch became a little helpless for a while, it was not good to agree, and he didn't dare to stop it, and his mind swayed from side to side like a grass on the wall.
Xuanyuan Mingyu knew that Su Meng and they would not be sent away by his words, and since he was already in the quagmire, he could only fall deeper and deeper.
In order to fulfill Princess Jin'er's wish, Xuanyuan Mingyu did not resist, and let the deputy general pull himself up from the ground, grab one of his arms and pull it out.
Xuanyuan Mingyu knew that his trip was full of dangers, and the prince would definitely not let him go if they couldn't find anyone. He couldn't bear not to look up at the lookout again, and silently said goodbye to Ren Zhen and Princess Jin'er in his heart.
"Slow!" Suddenly, I heard someone roaring, like a thunderbolt from the sky, which shook the eardrums of the people present.
Prince Sumeng looked back and saw a tall man who seemed to be like an iron tower squeezed in from the crowd, strode to Xuanyuan Mingyu's side, firmly grabbed Xuanyuan Mingyu's other arm, and shouted to the deputy general: "You! Let go of my second brother! ”
"I'll rub!" The adjutant general scolded, he has always been used to playing military ruffians, where can there be little ordinary people who dare to openly contradict the military master? Unexpectedly, today, a grassland herdsman jumped out and shouted at himself, he was simply going to rebel!
Of course, the deputy general refused to let go, twisted one of Xuanyuan Mingyu's arms, and replied: "Tubaozi, do you want to tug-of-war?" Then let's just try, will the military master still be afraid of you? ”
Mu Shuo clenched Xuanyuan Mingyu's wrist, took a lunge to stand firm, and said with reason: "Even if you are a military master, you can't deceive people too much!" Today, in our Rota tribe, in front of so many villagers, you dare to arrest my second brother casually, do you still take me, the first warrior of the grassland, in your eyes? ”
Xuanyuan Mingyu said that he was pulled to both sides by Mu Shuo and the deputy general, the wound on his shoulder was torn immediately, and the blood began to seep out, and he thought bitterly: God, you won't really use your body to tug-of-war, right? Where can the rope of his own human flesh withstand the pulling, is this the rhythm of being separated by the two?
Mu Shuo was angry for a while, and just wanted to leave Xuanyuan Mingyu behind, forgetting that he had many wounds on his body, and he couldn't pull it hard, but comforted Xuanyuan Mingyu very lovingly: "Second brother, don't worry, I won't let go!" You must not be forcibly taken away by them! ”
Xuanyuan Mingyu completely understood that Mu Shuo was for his own good, and he was embarrassed to explain his dangerous end if he continued like this, so he smiled and said a little desolately: "Brother Mu, I've caused you trouble." If I die, please give my body to Little Star to dispose of. ”
"Why do you want to hand it over to Miss Qin?" Mu Shuo asked puzzled.
"Because, although Little Star hurt me, it was all out of misunderstanding. It's been nearly two days and two nights, and I still can't explain it, which makes her very distressed, and I'm sorry, since I didn't have a chance to find out the truth, I handed over my body to her as compensation, hoping that she would be able to dissipate her anger. Xuanyuan Mingyu said with some sadness.
When Mu Shuo heard this, his heart was full of bad feelings, and he thought to himself: If he sees Qin Xingyi in the future, he must persuade her to change her attitude towards Xuanyuan Mingyu, stop blindly treating him as an enemy, and at least don't hurt Xuanyuan Mingyu again until the truth is clarified.
Mu Shuo's thoughts in his heart were not revealed, because he was not good at his mother-in-law's verbosity, he just sighed: "Second brother, you are too kind, and at this time, you are still thinking about others." ”
Prince Sumeng was silent, and stood by and watched, because he wanted to know what was so good about the first warrior of the steppe? He pondered that maybe he could gather this first warrior of the steppe as his own guard.
Seeing that Prince Sumeng looked like a bystander, the adjutant general thought that he could show himself and take this opportunity to make meritorious contributions and be promoted, and he was tired of being called a lieutenant general, and it was best to become a general as soon as possible.
The lieutenant general smiled wickedly: "Your Highness, today is a bit rebellious, the toad is going to ascend to the sky!" Guess who will win in a tug-of-war between me and this dirt bun? ”
One of Xuanyuan Mingyu's arms was stiffly twisted by the deputy general, and the pain made his forehead sweat, his eyes turned black, and he gritted his teeth without snorting.
The tribal patriarch saw that things were a little deadlocked, and he sensed that the big thing was not good, and he had to die if he went on like this! But what can be done? Since ancient times, the people have not fought with the officials! The Rota tribe was a small people in the steppe, incapable of fighting against the royal army.
The tribal patriarch felt that this was very important, and he had to remind Mu Shuo not to act blindly unless he had to. So, the patriarch persuaded: "Xiao Mu, calm down!" His Royal Highness the Prince didn't plan to do anything to Xiaoyu, just took him to verify the location, let's better not intensify the conflict! ”
Mu Shuo knew that the patriarch didn't know the truth, because the patriarch didn't know that Princess Jin'er was hiding on the lookout now, and if Xuanyuan Mingyu was taken away by the prince, she wouldn't be put back, and the end could be imagined! That's why he insisted on not letting them take Xuanyuan Mingyu away, not because he wasn't calm.
Princess Jin'er hid on the lookout platform, and saw Xuanyuan Mingyu being pulled hard by the two people on the left and right, and slowly bent down in pain, kneeling on one leg on the ground.
Where can Princess Jin'er bear it? She couldn't watch Xuanyuan Mingyu suffer more harm for herself, and said with tears in her eyes: "Second Miss, I can't stand it anymore, I want to go down to save him." ”
"Jin'er, don't show your face! You're going to kill him!" Because once his lies are exposed because of your appearance, do you think about it, does Xuanyuan Gongzi still have a chance to live? ”
