Chapter 1: First Encounter
Lying on the familiar bed, although his body was covered with a thick fox fur, and there was a charcoal fire burning in the house, Qing Ning still felt cold and couldn't stop shivering. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Princess, the maidservant is going to invite the king over." As soon as the words fell, the woman who was kneeling beside the bed immediately stood up and wanted to run out in a hurry.
"An An, stop!" Qing Ning immediately propped up half of his body with his already very weak arms, and shouted, "Don't go!" ”
"But the princess ......" An An's footsteps stopped, and the whole person turned around weakly, with tears in his eyes, and looked at the haggard woman on the bed and said, "If it goes on like this, how will the princess's body ...... How can I stand ......?"
After the words fell, An An finally knelt on the ground, holding her cheeks with her hands, and cried out loudly.
Qing Ning's face gradually became a trace of coldness, with a hint of self-deprecation in his eyes, and his voice was slightly weak: "Today, who can I blame?" ”
"An An, help me up." Qing Ning's complexion had regained his calmness, and his voice was unwavering.
An An was worried about Qing Ning's body and hesitated slightly. But after thinking about it, he wiped the tears on his face, took a big coat and draped it on Qingning's body, and carefully helped her up.
I haven't been on the ground for more than a month, and when my feet just landed, that feeling made Qingning a little unfamiliar, and he was unstable and almost fell, but fortunately, he helped himself steadily.
"Help me to the table by the window, I want to write something, and I want to bask in the sun that I haven't seen for a long time." Qingning leaned against An An and looked at the table by the window.
An An didn't say anything, and supported Qing Ning wholeheartedly, afraid that if she was not careful, she would let the princess fall.
Looking at the princess, An An's heart was dripping blood all the time. She never dared to believe that the princess who was once so gorgeous and galloping on the grassland would one day end up so weak and lifeless.
Looking at the cloth in front of him, he sat quietly for a long time, and his thoughts unconsciously returned to a night four years ago.
It was a beautiful night, at least the best night she thought she had ever experienced. Under the starry sky, she is so happy galloping on the grassland, even if there is a strange man next to her, and there is a group of killers who are chasing after her.
But it was that night that she met a strange man, a man who brought her the happiest days of her life, but also brought her the pain of her life, Mingxu.
On this unknown continent, there is a big country named Xiliao, and Mingxu is the fifth prince of Xiliao. There were many small states around the Western Liao, but all of them were subservient to the Western Liao and could not pose a substantial threat to the Western Liao. Finally, there is the Ulan Buir grassland in the north, and Qingning is the only princess on the grassland, named Wuzhumuqin Qingning.
Although Western Liao is a large country and has not had any worries about external troubles for many years, it has been in civil strife in recent years. When the boss of Western Liao died, the civil strife caused by the struggle for the throne in Western Liao broke out in full force.
The old king of Western Liao had a total of eleven sons, of whom three were not yet adults, but they could not be withdrawn from this competition. The younger brother of the old king of Western Liao, King Zhenghou, colluded with the concubine Jiang to support the young son of the old king of Western Liao, who was only three years old, to become the king and exercise the right of regent himself.
And the other two princes who are still adults are also supported by their strong maternal forces. After a three-month-long contest, it finally ended with the queen's son, the third prince Mingxian, ascending the throne. After the third prince succeeded to the throne, in order to prevent future troubles, he immediately found various reasons to deal with several princes and courtiers who had posed a great threat to him when he seized the throne.
And those who were lucky to save their lives were mostly displaced. Ming Xu was a prince who saved his life, but was sent to be stationed forever on the border between Western Liao and Ulan Bell.
Ming Xu's mother is only the daughter of a historian, so he does not have the support of a strong maternal family, and because of this, in that battle for the throne, Ming Xu did not have a head-to-head confrontation with Ming Xian. And after Mingxian succeeded to the throne, he was eager to stabilize and suppress the neighboring countries of the Zhongfan State that were already a little ready to move, so he not only gave Mingxu a chance to save his life, but also gave him a chance to breathe.
Although the Ulanbuir grassland is not rich, it is not a barren place, except for some difficulties in winter, the rest of the days are very happy and chic. The king of the steppe is named Ujumuqin Batar, which means the hero of the steppe.
Battle is a very burly man, he is brave and resolute, he is a good king, but also a good father, and he is the most respected person in Qingning.
When Qing Ning first met Ming Xu, he didn't know his identity, and only thought he was a poor person.
"Hey, the person they are chasing is me, it has nothing to do with you, if you want to live, stay away from me!" Mixed with the sound of the wind, it was a somewhat cold but very appealing sound.
And this is also the first sentence that Ming Xu said to Qing Ning.
"Why are they chasing you? Are you a wicked person? Qing Ning did not leave, still galloping the horse under him, keeping with Ming Xu, and asked with some curiosity.
Qing Ning waited for the other party to answer, but for a long time, the other party did not speak. This attracted Qing Ning's attention even more, and she suddenly had a feeling that this person should not be a villain at the very least.
If he is really a wicked person, he should ask himself if there is a way to help him at this moment, after all, this is the grassland, and his dress is obviously a grassland person. When you run for your life, you can meet a local, and that's definitely the luckiest thing to do.
But the person in front of him didn't, not only did he not let himself help him, but he also let himself leave......
"If you want to get rid of these people behind you, come with me!" As soon as the words fell, Qing Ning raised the whip in his hand, whipped the horse under him, and rushed in one direction.
Ming Xu only looked at the girl's back and hesitated slightly, and immediately followed. The girl in front of her has very exquisite equestrian skills, watching her gallop at a rapid pace, like an elf on the grassland. At that moment, Mingxu had the idea of wanting to take a good look at the girl for the first time.
Qing Ning took Ming Xu to gallop on the seemingly unconcealed grassland, but he didn't know when, the chasing soldiers behind him were gone.
Ming Xu grabbed the reins of the horse, and with a neighing that pierced the sky, the horse raised its front hooves slightly and immediately stopped.
Ming Xu turned the horse's head and looked at the empty behind, his face slightly surprised.
"How did you do that? There is no cover here, and there is no fork in the road, so how can those people be lost? With undisguised surprise in his eyes, Mingxu looked at the woman who was riding on a horse and slowly coming towards him, and asked.
